This generator can be used by desktop environments to launch autostart
applications and services. The feature is an opt-in, triggered by
xdg-desktop-autostart.target being activated.
Also included is the new binary xdg-autostart-condition. This binary is
used as an ExecCondition to test the OnlyShowIn and NotShowIn XDG
desktop file keys. These need to be evaluated against the
XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP environment variable which may not be known at
generation time.

It doesn't make much sense to have ConfigureWithoutCarrier set, but not
IgnoreCarrierLoss; all the configuration added during initial interface
bring-up will be lost at the first carrier up/down.
This allows users to configure a subnet id that should be used instead
of automatically (sequentially) assigned subnets. The previous attempt
had the downside that the subnet id would not be the same between
networkd restarts. In some setups it is desirable to have predictable
subnet ids across restarts of services and systems.
The code for the assignment had to be broken up into two pieces. One of
them is the old (sequential) assignment of prefixes and the other is the
new assignment based on configured subnet ids. The new assignment code
has to be executed first and has to be taken into account when (later
on) allocating the "old" subnets from the same pool.
Instead of having one iteration through the links we are now trying to
allocate a prefix for every link on every delegated prefix, unless they
received an assignment in a previous iteration.
Defines how link-local and autoconf addresses are generated.
0: generate address based on EUI64 (default)
1: do no generate a link-local address, use EUI64 for addresses generated
from autoconf
2: generate stable privacy addresses, using the secret from
stable_secret (RFC7217)
3: generate stable privacy addresses, using a random secret if unset
This variable is read by the module and can be used instead of the
suspend= PAM module parameter.
It is also set for the session itself to make debugging easy.
Much like systemd.condition-needs-update= this new switch allows
overriding of a unit file condition, but this time its
ConditionFirstBoot=.
Usecase is also primarily debugging, but could be useful for other
schemes too.
The systemd pstore service archives the contents of /sys/fs/pstore
upon boot so that there is room for a subsequent dump. The issue is
that while the service is present, the kernel still needs to be
configured to write data into the pstore. The kernel has two
parameters, crash_kexec_post_notifiers and printk.always_kmsg_dump,
that control writes into pstore.
The crash_kexec_post_notifiers parameter enables the kernel to write
dmesg (including stack trace) into pstore upon a panic, and
printk.always_kmsg_dump parameter enables the kernel to write dmesg
upon a shutdown (shutdown, reboot, halt).
As it stands today, these parameters are not managed/manipulated by
the systemd pstore service, and are solely reliant upon the user [to
have the foresight] to set them on the kernel command line at boot, or
post boot via sysfs. Furthermore, the user would need to set these
parameters in a persistent fashion so that that they are enabled on
subsequent reboots.
This patch introduces the setting of these two kernel parameters via
the systemd tmpfiles technique.
Link groups are similar to port ranges found in managed switches.
You can add network interfaces to a numbered group and perform operations
on all the interfaces from that group at once.
These arguments contain UserRecord structures serialized to JSON,
however only the "secret" part of it, not a whole user record. We do
this since the secret part is conceptually part of the user record and
in some contexts we need a user record in full with both secret and
non-secret part, and in others just the secret and in other just the
non-secret part, but we want to keep this in memory in the same logic.
Hence, let's rename the arguments where we expect a user record
consisting only of the secret part to "secret".
Fixes: #15757
(Note there's quite some confusion regarding "exit status" vs. "exit
code" in the docs here. We should clean this up fully one day. This
change tries to fix some occasions of the wrong use, but not all.)
I was looking for the explanation for the exclamation mark in the text,
and couldn't find it, searching for "!". Let's make this easier, and
indicate the character meant.
As described in #15603, it is a fairly common setup to use a fqdn as the
configured hostname. But it is often convenient to use just the actual
hostname, i.e. until the first dot. This adds support in tmpfiles, sysusers,
and unit files for %l which expands to that.
Fixes#15603.
I wasn't 100% convinced that this is the right thing to do, hence the separate
commit. But e.g. for paths we index all mentions, so I think it's reasonable to
do the same here.
The hack with getparent().txt is not very pretty, but the whole
thing seems to work well enough. It is useful to figure out whihc
specifiers are supported where.
In the beginning, it was rather short, and reasonable to include inline.
Now it is long and unwieldy, let's split it out.
While at it, let's reindent and wrap using our current standards.
The name of the helper didn't match the name of the meson target, which was
always confusing me. With this change, we consistenly use "update" to
re-generate things which we otherwise keep in vc, and "make" for things
which are generated during each build.
This adds the --exit-idle-time argument that causes
systemd-socket-proxyd to exit when there has been an idle period. An
open connection prevents the idle period from starting, even if there is
no activity on that connection.
When combined with another service that uses StopWhenUnneeded=, the
proxy exiting can trigger a resource-intensive process to exit. So
although the proxy may consume minimal resources, significant resources
can be saved indirectly.
Fixes#2106
I'm not sure if the LogTarget property is sufficiently general to be made into
a property that can be generally implemented. It is very closely tied to the internal
systemd logic. The other two seem fine thoough.
This has the advantage that the executables are always in place and we don't
need any units to exist on the bus, so we can eventually hook this up into
a normal build system. (Probably as a build time check.)
For units which are aliases of other units, reporting preset status as
"enabled" is rather misleading. For example, dbus.service is an alias of
dbus-broker.service. In list-unit-files we'd show both as "enabled". In
particular, systemctl preset ignores aliases, so showing any preset status at
all is always going to be misleading. Let's introduce a new state "alias" and
use that for all aliases.
I was trying to avoid adding a new state, to keep compatibility with previous
behaviour, but for alias unit files it simply doesn't seem very useful to show
any of the existing states. It seems that the clearly showing that those are
aliases for other units will be easiest to understand for users.
5238d9a83a renames this to exit-status, but systemd.service was not
updated.
The rest of the doc seems a bit inconsistent in its use of the terms
"exit code" and "exit status", but it's not that confusing, so leave
those alone for now.
We probably can migrate even more, but for now let's just migrate those
which have the 1:1 identical text everywhere.
(Also, let's add the % entry to all specifier tables)
