Currently, each change to NEWS triggers a meson reconfigure that
changes SOURCE_EPOCH which causes a full rebuild. Since NEWS changes
relatively often, we have a full rebuild each time we pull from
master even if we pull semi-regularly. This is further compounded
when using branches since NEWS has a relatively high chance to
differ between branches which causes git to update the modification
time, leading to a full rebuild when switching between branches.
We fix this by using the creation time of the latest git tag instead.
Since cryptsetup 2.3.0 a new API to verify dm-verity volumes by a
pkcs7 signature, with the public key in the kernel keyring,
is available. Use it if libcryptsetup supports it.
This way journalctl can make use of libqrencode if it's there, but will
quietly not use it if it isn't.
This means libqrencode remains a build-time dep, but not a strict
runtime dependency.
I figure we should do something similar for a bunch of other "leaf"
libraries we only use few symbols of. Specifically the following are
probably good candidates:
* pcre2
* libpwquality
* p11kit
* elfutils
and possibly:
* libcryptsetup (only in some parts. i.e. building systemd-cryptsetup
without it makes no sense. However building the dissect option with
libcryptsetup as optional dep does make sense)
* possibly the compression libraries (at least the ones we never use for
compression, but only as alternative ones for decompression)
Already covered like this is:
* libxkcommon
Previously we'd used the existance of a specific AF_UNIX socket in the
abstract namespace as lock for disabling lookup recursions. (for
breaking out of the loop: userdb synthesized from nss → nss synthesized
from userdb → userdb synthesized from nss → …)
I did it like that because it promised to work the same both in static
and in dynmically linked environments and is accessible easily from any
programming language.
However, it has a weakness regarding reuse attacks: the socket is
securely hashed (siphash) from the thread ID in combination with the
AT_RANDOM secret. Thus it should not be guessable from an attacker in
advance. That's only true if a thread takes the lock only once and
keeps it forever. However, if a thread takes and releases it multiple
times an attacker might monitor that and quickly take the lock
after the first iteration for follow-up iterations.
It's not a big issue given that userdb (as the primary user for this)
never released the lock and we never made the concept a public
interface, and it was only included in one release so far, but it's
something that deserves fixing. (moreover it's a local DoS only, only
permitting to disable native userdb lookups)
With this rework the libnss_systemd.so.2 module will now export two
additional symbols. These symbols are not used by glibc, but can be used
by arbitrary programs: one can be used to disable nss-systemd, the other
to check if it is currently disabled.
The lock is per-thread. It's slightly less pretty, since it requires
people to manually link against C code via dlopen()/dlsym(), but it
should work safely without the aforementioned weakness.
Use -Dstandalone-binaries=yes to enable building and installing this standalone
version of the binary without a dependency on the systemd-shared solib.
Also move the list of sources for systemd-tmpfiles to its own meson.build file.
This adds an option to build standalone binaries that do not depend on the
systemd-shared library. This option can be handy to build binaries that can be
useful on a non-systemd system, binaries such as systemd-sysusers and
systemd-tmpfiles have been previously requested, but installing them with all
the required dependencies pulls in too much code that isn't really relevant for
those use cases. The standalone use case is also relevant in containers, where
minimizing the size of the container image is quite relevant.
For now, only `systemd-sysusers` is also built as a standalone binary.
The standalone binaries are installed as `/usr/bin/%{name}.standalone`, the
packaging system is reponsible for renaming those into the correct names
during the packaging step. RPM is able to do so with RemovePathPostfixes:
The default behavior is to build shared binaries only, since this option is
mainly intended for building distribution packages.
Tested that a proper separate binary is built when using this option and
that having it disabled (or using the default Meson configuration) does not
produce a binary for this option.
Let systemd load a set of pre-compiled AppArmor profile files from a policy
cache at /etc/apparmor/earlypolicy. Maintenance of that policy cache must be
done outside of systemd.
After successfully loading the profiles systemd will attempt to change to a
profile named systemd.
If systemd is already confined in a profile, it will not load any profile files
and will not attempt to change it's profile.
If anything goes wrong, systemd will only log failures. It will not fail to
start.
Since the separate binaries contain mostly the same code,
this almost halves the size of the installation.

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.

The slow-tests= option already enables fuzzers as well, however, this
option can't be used in the "fully sanitized" runs, as certain slow
tests are affected by the performance quite significantly.
This option allows us to enable only fuzzers without the slow tests to
meet the needs of such runs.
Debian Policy encourages to preserve timestamps whenever possible in the
tarballs, thus stable release updates of systemd usually do not bump NEWS file
timestamp. And thus time-epoch remains the same for the lifetime of a release.
It would be better, if each new stable release rebuild of systemd would bump
the time epoch a bit. But at the same time remain
reproducible. SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH is an environmnet variable defined for this
purpose. Thus if available, prefer that, instead of the NEWS file modification
time.
For example, on Debian/Ubuntu under the reproducible builds the
SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH is set to the timestamp from the packaging metadata, thus it
is incremented on every new stable release update, whilst preserving
reproducible builds capability.

The kernel should not define the length of the array, but it does. We can't fix
that, so let's use a cast to avoid the warning.
For https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/6119#issuecomment-626073743.
v2:
- use #pragma instead of a cast. It seems the cast only works in some cases, and
gcc is "smart" enough to see beyond the cast. Unfortunately clang does not support
this warning, so we need to do a config check whether to try to suppress.
Ideally, assert_cc() would be used for this, so that it is not possible to even
compile systemd with something like '-Dfallback-hostname=.foo'. But to do a
proper check we need to call hostname_is_valid(), and we cannot depend on being
able to run code (e.g. during cross-compilation). So let's do a very superficial
check in meson, and a proper on in test-util.
There are two libc APIs for accessing the user database: NSS/getpwuid(),
and fgetpwent(). if we run in --root= mode (i.e. "offline" mode), let's
use the latter. Otherwise the former. This means tmpfiles can use the
database included in the root environment for chowning, which is a lot
more appropriate.
Fixes: #14806
In a few cases, the prefix was originally necessary because a different helper
script was used for automake, and a different one for meson. But now we use
meson exclusively, and the prefix isn't useful. This also synchronizes the
target name, file name, and variable name in meson.build. The targets exposed
by meson didn't have the prefix, so the user interface is unchanged.
(The prefix is retained in the few tools that are used for meson itself,
e.g. meosn-vcs-tag.sh, meson-make-symlink.sh, etc.)

On azure systemd.systemd ci, the build would fail with:

We use find_program() for all helpers, so let's do it for this one too.
This should solve the issue, whatever it exactly is.
Build option "link-timesyncd-shared" to build a statically linked
systemd-timesyncd by using
-Dlink-udev-shared=false -Dlink-timesyncd-shared=false
on systems with full systemd stack except systemd-timesyncd, such
as RHEL/CentOS 8.
Fixes systemd build in Fedora rawhide.
The old ldsdir option is not useful, because both the directory and the
file name changed. Let's remove the option and try to autodetect the file
name. If this turns out to be not enough, a new option to simply specify
the full path to the file can be added.
F31:
efi arch: x86_64
EFI machine type: x64

This makes things a bit simpler and the build a bit faster, because we don't
have to rewrite files to do the trivial substitution. @rootbindir@ is always in
our internal $PATH that we use for non-absolute paths, so there should be no
functional change.
This changes nss-systemd to use the new varlink user/group APIs for
looking up everything.
(This also changes the factory /etc/nsswitch.conf line to use for
hooking up nss-system to use glibc's [SUCCESS=merge] feature so that we
can properly merge group membership lists).
Fixes: #12492
Build option "link-networkd-shared" to build a statically linked
systemd-networkd by using
-Dlink-udev-shared=false -Dlink-networkd-shared=false
on systems with full systemd stack except systemd-networkd, such
as RHEL/CentOS 8.
This adds a new crypttab option for volumes "pkcs11-uri=" which takes a
PKCS#11 URI. When used the key stored in the line's key file is
decrypted with the private key the PKCS#11 URI indiciates.
This means any smartcard that can store private RSA keys is usable for
unlocking LUKS devices.
This is not a new system call at all (since kernel 2.2), however it's
not exposed in glibc (a wrapper is exposed however in sigqueue(), but it
substantially simplifies the system call). Since we want a nice fallback
for sending signals on non-pidfd systems for pidfd_send_signal() let's
wrap rt_sigqueueinfo() since it takes the same siginfo_t parameter.
There is no change in the file right now, but the download seems to work
OK.
It's funny that the biggest company in the world cannot provide a
download link in plain text.
This partially reverts db11487d10 (the logic to
calculate the correct value is removed, we always use the same setting as for
the system manager). Distributions have an easy mechanism to override this if
they wish.
I think making this configurable is better, because different distros clearly
want different defaults here, and making this configurable is nice and clean.
If we don't make it configurable, distros which either have to carry patches,
or what would be worse, rely on some other configuration mechanism, like
/etc/profile. Those other solutions do not apply everywhere (they usually
require the shell to be used at some point), so it is better if we provide
a nice way to override the default.
Fixes #13469.
We compile some c++ code for tests. We would simply use the default options for
those. When the previous commit raised the default warning level, we started
getting warnings from c++ code. Let's add the most important options to the c++
command, so that we get a compilation without any warnings again.
I don't think it makes sense to add *all* the options that we add for c to the
c++ flags, because testing them takes quite a while, and the c++ compilations
are for small amounts of code, mostly to check that the headers have compatible
syntax.
Let's bump up the warning level, and not add by -Wextra by hand. This is the
approach recommended by meson. The idea is that all projects should be as
similar as possible to make it easier for users to switch between projects.
Increase the required version to ensure TLS 1.3 is always supported when using GnuTLS for DNS-over-TLS and allow further changes to use recent API additions.
Per https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/5003, ternary doesn't
always work as function args with older versions of meson.
Expand out ternary statements to stay compatible with older versions (< 0.49).
As discussed on systemd-devel [1], in Fedora we get lots of abrt reports
about the watchdog firing [2], but 100% of them seem to be caused by resource
starvation in the machine, and never actual deadlocks in the services being
monitored. Killing the services not only does not improve anything, but it
makes the resource starvation worse, because the service needs cycles to restart,
and coredump processing is also fairly expensive. This adds a configuration option
to allow the value to be changed. If the setting is not set, there is no change.
My plan is to set it to some ridiculusly high value, maybe 1h, to catch cases
where a service is actually hanging.

This change is only about the source tree. We have tmpfiles.d/, modprobe.d/,

The ChromeOS ecosystem has a large amount of testing, both automated

It's safe to assume that any of these devices will handle USB

This script in systemd `tools/chromeos/gen_autosuspend_rules.py` should be kept
in sync with the ChromeOS version of the script.

Priority is 80. At least in Fedora, chrony uses 50, and ntpd 60.
timesyncd has lower priority, because if people install those other packages,
it's most likely on purpose. timesyncd is always installed and provides
less functionality.
This patch introduces the systemd pstore service which will archive the
contents of the Linux persistent storage filesystem, pstore, to other storage,
thus preserving the existing information contained in the pstore, and clearing
pstore storage for future error events.
Linux provides a persistent storage file system, pstore[1], that can store
error records when the kernel dies (or reboots or powers-off). These records in
turn can be referenced to debug kernel problems (currently the kernel stuffs
the tail of the dmesg, which also contains a stack backtrace, into pstore).
The pstore file system supports a variety of backends that map onto persistent
storage, such as the ACPI ERST[2, Section 18.5 Error Serialization] and UEFI
variables[3 Appendix N Common Platform Error Record]. The pstore backends
typically offer a relatively small amount of persistent storage, e.g. 64KiB,
which can quickly fill up and thus prevent subsequent kernel crashes from
recording errors. Thus there is a need to monitor and extract the pstore
contents so that future kernel problems can also record information in the
pstore.
The pstore service is independent of the kdump service. In cloud environments
specifically, host and guest filesystems are on remote filesystems (eg. iSCSI
or NFS), thus kdump relies [implicitly and/or explicitly] upon proper operation
of networking software *and* hardware *and* infrastructure. Thus it may not be
possible to capture a kernel coredump to a file since writes over the network
may not be possible.
The pstore backend, on the other hand, is completely local and provides a path
to store error records which will survive a reboot and aid in post-mortem
debugging.
Usage Notes:
This tool moves files from /sys/fs/pstore into /var/lib/systemd/pstore.
To enable kernel recording of error records into pstore, one must either pass
crash_kexec_post_notifiers[4] to the kernel command line or enable via 'echo Y
> /sys/module/kernel/parameters/crash_kexec_post_notifiers'. This option
invokes the recording of errors into pstore *before* an attempt to kexec/kdump
on a kernel crash.
Optionally, to record reboots and shutdowns in the pstore, one can either pass
the printk.always_kmsg_dump[4] to the kernel command line or enable via 'echo Y >
/sys/module/printk/parameters/always_kmsg_dump'. This option enables code on the
shutdown path to record information via pstore.
This pstore service is a oneshot service. When run, the service invokes
systemd-pstore which is a tool that performs the following:
- reads the pstore.conf configuration file
- collects the lists of files in the pstore (eg. /sys/fs/pstore)
- for certain file types (eg. dmesg) a handler is invoked
- for all other files, the file is moved from pstore
- In the case of dmesg handler, final processing occurs as such:
- files processed in reverse lexigraphical order to faciliate
reconstruction of original dmesg
- the filename is examined to determine which dmesg it is a part
- the file is appended to the reconstructed dmesg
For example, the following pstore contents:

Configuration file:
The pstore.conf configuration file has four settings, described below.
- Storage : one of "none", "external", or "journal". With "none", this
tool leaves the contents of pstore untouched. With "external", the
contents of the pstore are moved into the /var/lib/systemd/pstore,
as well as logged into the journal. With "journal", the contents of
the pstore are recorded only in the systemd journal. The default is
"external".
- Unlink : is a boolean. When "true", the default, then files in the
pstore are removed once processed. When "false", processing of the
pstore occurs normally, but the pstore files remain.

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
This means the the code needs to be kept compatible in the shared header,
but I think that still nicer than having two places to declare the same
things.
I added src/boot to -I, so that efi/foo.h needs to be used. This reduces
the potential for accidentally including the wrong header.
