If /var/lib/machines is mounted as btrfs loopback file system in
/var/lib/machines.raw with this change we automatically grow the file
system as it fills up. After each 10M we write to it during imports, we
check the free disk space, and if the fill level grows beyond 66% we
increase the size of the file system to 3x the fill level (thus lowering
it to 33%).
gpg2 insists on created a trust db even if we tun off all trust db
support. Hence create a temporary home where the trust db is placed, and
remove it after use.
When manipulating container and VM images we need efficient and atomic
directory snapshots and file copies, as well as disk quota. btrfs
provides this, legacy file systems do not. Hence, implicitly create a
loopback file system in /var/lib/machines.raw and mount it to
/var/lib/machines, if that directory is not on btrfs anyway.
This is done implicitly and transparently the first time the user
invokes "machinectl import-xyz".
This allows us to take benefit of btrfs features for container
management without actually having the rest of the system use btrfs.
The loopback is sized 500M initially. Patches to grow it dynamically are
to follow.
The call iterates through cmsg list and closes all fds passed via
SCM_RIGHTS.
This patch also ensures the call is used wherever appropriate, where we
might get spurious fds sent and we should better close them, then leave
them lying around.
Also, allow clients to alter their own objects without any further
priviliges. i.e. this allows clients to kill and lock their own sessions
without involving PK.
We will be woken up on rtnl or dbus activity, so let's just quit if some time has passed and that is the only thing that can happen.
Note that we will always stay around if we expect network activity (e.g. DHCP is enabled), as we are not restarted on that.
After all it is now much more like strjoin() than strappend(). At the
same time, add support for NULL sentinels, even if they are normally not
necessary.
With this change the pull protocol implementation processes will pass
progress data to importd which then passes this information on via the
bus. We use sd_notify() as generic transport for this communication,
making importd listen to them, while matching the incoming messages to
the right transfer.
The old "systemd-import" binary is now an internal tool. We still use it
as asynchronous backend for systemd-importd. Since the import tool might
require some IO and CPU resources (due to qcow2 explosion, and
decompression), and because we might want to run it with more minimal
priviliges we still keep it around as the worker binary to execute as
child process of importd.
machinectl now has verbs for pulling down images, cancelling them and
listing them.
