I find this version much more readable.
Add replacement defines so that when acl/libacl.h is not available, the
ACL_{READ,WRITE,EXECUTE} constants are also defined. Those constants were
declared in the kernel headers already in 1da177e4c3f41524e886b7f1b8a0c1f,
so they should be the same pretty much everywhere.
Too much code has been removed while replacing startswith with STARTSWITH_SET
so that every ACL specified e.g. in tmpfiles.d was parsed as a default ACL.
These lines are generally out-of-date, incomplete and unnecessary. With
SPDX and git repository much more accurate and fine grained information
about licensing and authorship is available, hence let's drop the
per-file copyright notice. Of course, removing copyright lines of others
is problematic, hence this commit only removes my own lines and leaves
all others untouched. It might be nicer if sooner or later those could
go away too, making git the only and accurate source of authorship
information.
This part of the copyright blurb stems from the GPL use recommendations:
https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.en.html
The concept appears to originate in times where version control was per
file, instead of per tree, and was a way to glue the files together.
Ultimately, we nowadays don't live in that world anymore, and this
information is entirely useless anyway, as people are very welcome to
copy these files into any projects they like, and they shouldn't have to
change bits that are part of our copyright header for that.
hence, let's just get rid of this old cruft, and shorten our codebase a
bit.
Files which are installed as-is (any .service and other unit files, .conf
files, .policy files, etc), are left as is. My assumption is that SPDX
identifiers are not yet that well known, so it's better to retain the
extended header to avoid any doubt.
I also kept any copyright lines. We can probably remove them, but it'd nice to
obtain explicit acks from all involved authors before doing that.

When we have non-owner user or group entries, we need the mask
for the acl to be valid. But acl_calc_mask() calculates the mask
to include all permissions, even those that were masked before.
Apparently this happens when we inherit *:r-x permissions from
a parent directory — the kernel sets *:r-x, mask:r--, effectively
masking the executable bit. acl_calc_mask() would set the mask:r-x,
effectively enabling the bit. To avoid this, be more conservative when
to add the mask entry: first iterate over all entries, and do nothing
if a mask.
This returns the code closer to J.A.Steffens' original version
in v204-90-g23ad4dd884.
Should fix https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/1977.
Most of the function is moved to acl-util.c to make it possible to
add tests in subsequent commit.
Setting of the mode in server_fix_perms is removed:
- we either just created the file ourselves, and the permission be better right,
- or the file was already there, and we should not modify the permissions.
server_fix_perms is renamed to server_fix_acls to better reflect new
meaning, and made static because it is only used in one file.
There are more than enough calls doing string manipulations to deserve
its own files, hence do something about it.
This patch also sorts the #include blocks of all files that needed to be
updated, according to the sorting suggestions from CODING_STYLE. Since
pretty much every file needs our string manipulation functions this
effectively means that most files have sorted #include blocks now.
Also touches a few unrelated include files.
- Make string parameter const
- Don't log some OOM errors, but not others
- Don't eat up errors generated by acl_from_text()
- Make sure check for success of every single strv_push() call
- fix some memory leaks on error conditions
- handle all error cases properly, and log about failures
- move HAVE_ACL and no-HAVE_ACL code closer to each other
This patch removes includes that are not used. The removals were found with
include-what-you-use which checks if any of the symbols from a header is
in use.
For ACLs to be valid, a set of entries for user, group, and other
must be always present. Always add those entries.
While at it, only add the mask ACL if it is actually required, i.e.
when at least on ACL for non-owner group or user exists.
Since 11ec7ce, journald isn't setting the ACLs properly anymore if
the files had no ACLs to begin with: acl_set_fd fails with EINVAL.
An ACL with ACL_USER or ACL_GROUP entries but no ACL_MASK entry is
invalid, so make sure a mask exists before trying to set the ACL.
We finally got the OK from all contributors with non-trivial commits to
relicense systemd from GPL2+ to LGPL2.1+.
Some udev bits continue to be GPL2+ for now, but we are looking into
relicensing them too, to allow free copy/paste of all code within
systemd.
The bits that used to be MIT continue to be MIT.
The big benefit of the relicensing is that closed source code may now
link against libsystemd-login.so and friends.
