Before, we'd create a separate image for each test, in
/var/tmp/systemd-test.XXXXX/rootdisk.img. Most of the images
where very similar, except that each one had some unit files installed
specifically for the test. The installation of those custom unit files
was removed in previous commits (all the unit files are always installed).
The new approach is to only create as few distinct images as possible.
We have:
default.img: the "normal" image suitable for almost all the tests
basic.img: the same as default image but doesn't mask any services
cryptsetup.img: p2 is used for encrypted /var
badid.img: /etc/machine-id is overwritten with stuff
selinux.img: with selinux added for fun and fun
and a few others:
ls -l build/test/*img
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 38 Mar 21 21:23 build/test/badid.img -> /var/tmp/systemd-test.PJFFeo/badid.img
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 38 Mar 21 21:17 build/test/basic.img -> /var/tmp/systemd-test.na0xOI/basic.img
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 43 Mar 21 21:18 build/test/cryptsetup.img -> /var/tmp/systemd-test.Tzjv06/cryptsetup.img
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 40 Mar 21 21:19 build/test/default.img -> /var/tmp/systemd-test.EscAsS/default.img
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 39 Mar 21 21:22 build/test/nspawn.img -> /var/tmp/systemd-test.HSebKo/nspawn.img
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 40 Mar 21 21:20 build/test/selinux.img -> /var/tmp/systemd-test.daBjbx/selinux.img
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 39 Mar 21 21:21 build/test/test08.img -> /var/tmp/systemd-test.OgnN8Z/test08.img
I considered trying to use the same image everywhere. It would probably be
possible, but it would be very brittle. By using separate images where it is
necessary we keep various orthogonal modifications independent.
The way that images are cached is complicated by the fact that we still
want to keep them in /var/tmp. Thus, an image is created on first use and
linked to from build/test/ so it can be found by other tests.
Tests cannot be run in parallel. I think that is an acceptable limitation.
Creation of the images was probably taking more resources then the actual
tests, so we should be better off anyway.
As in 2a5fcfae02
and in 3e67e5c992
using /usr/bin/env allows bash to be looked up in PATH
rather than being hard-coded.
As with the previous changes the same arguments apply
- distributions have scripts to rewrite shebangs on installation and
they know what locations to rely on.
- For tests/compilation we should rather rely on the user to have setup
there PATH correctly.
In particular this makes testing from git easier on NixOS where do not provide
/bin/bash to improve compose-ability.
This extends the "uid:gid" syntax for "u" lines so that a group
name can be given instead of a GID. This requires that the group
is either queued for creation by sysusers, or it is already defined
on the system.
Closes#14340
There's a race condition in the sysuser test where it may try to read
entries from the journal before they are available. Fix it by adding a
`journalctl --sync` call.

Some distros install nologin as /usr/sbin/nologin, others as
/sbin/nologin.
Since we can't really on merged-usr everywhere (where the path wouldn't
matter), make the path build time configurable via -Dnologin-path=.
Closes#13028
We had all kinds of indentation: 2 sp, 3 sp, 4 sp, 8 sp, and mixed.
4 sp was the most common, in particular the majority of scripts under test/
used that. Let's standarize on 4 sp, because many commandlines are long and
there's a lot of nesting, and with 8sp indentation less stuff fits. 4 sp
also seems to be the default indentation, so this will make it less likely
that people will mess up if they don't load the editor config. (I think people
often use vi, and vi has no support to load project-wide configuration
automatically. We distribute a .vimrc file, but it is not loaded by default,
and even the instructions in it seem to discourage its use for security
reasons.)
Also remove the few vim config lines that were left. We should either have them
on all files, or none.
Also remove some strange stuff like '#!/bin/env bash', yikes.
To indicate that the there're no more entries, these wrappers return false but
did leave the passed pointed unmodified.
However EOF is not an error and is a very common case so initialize the output
argument to NULL even in this case so callers don't need to do that.
Fixes: #8721
This PR implements the first part of RFE #8046. I.e. this allows to
write:
```
u username -:300
```
Where the uid is chosen automatically but the gid is fixed.
On Debian/Ubuntu systems the default passwd/group files use a
slightly strange mapping. E.g. in passwd:
```
man❌6:12::/var/cache/man:/sbin/nologin
```
and in group:
```
disk❌6:
man❌12:
```
This is not supported in systemd-sysusers right now because
sysusers will not re-use an existing uid/gid in its normal
mode of operation. Unfortunately this reuse is needed to
replicate the default Debian/Ubuntu users/groups.
This commit enforces reuse when the "uid:gid" syntax is used
to fix this.
I also added a test that replicates the Debian base-passwd
passwd/group file to ensure things are ok.
This test tests the systemd-sysuser binary via the --root=$TESTDIR
option and ensures that for the given inputs the expected passwd
and group files will be generated.
