We don't, the signal remains blocked. We use signalfd() to be able to
read the signal events without unblocking the signal.
While we are at it, mention that pthread_sigmask() is fine too.
Let's make sure we get back to 100% man page documentation coverage of
our sd-event APIs. We are bad enough at the others, let's get these ones
right at least.
We dropped documentation from sd_journal_open_container() long ago
(since the call is obsolete), hence drop the reference to machined. But
add one in for journald instead.
systemd.nspawn(5) contained a partial repeat of the stuff that is now in the
dedicated man page. Let's just refer to that.
While at it, do s/searched/searched for/ where appropriate and reword some
sentences for brevity.
In those two pages, we need to include individual entries with xi:include to
merge the list less-variables.xml with the other entries, which is obviously
error prone. All variables are supported in both tools so add them.
When wrong element types are used, directives are sometimes placed in the wrong
section. Also, strip part of text starting with "'", which is used in a few
places and which is displayed improperly in the index.
Apparently some firmwares don't allow us to write this token, and refuse
it with EINVAL. We should normally consider that a fatal error, but not
really in the case of "bootctl random-seed" when called from the
systemd-boot-system-token.service since it's called as "best effort"
service after boot on various systems, and hence we shouldn't fail
loudly.
Similar, when we cannot find the ESP don't fail either, since there are
systems (arch install ISOs) that carry a boot loader capable of the
random seed logic but don't mount it after boot.
Fixes: #13603
This makes the naming more consistent: we now have
bootctl systemd-efi-options,
$SYSTEMD_EFI_OPTIONS
and the SystemdOptions EFI variable.
(SystemdEFIOptions would be redundant, because it is only used in the context
of efivars, and users don't interact with that name directly.)
bootctl is adjusted to use 2sp indentation, similarly to systemctl and other
programs.
Remove the prefix with the old name from 'bootctl systemd-efi-options' output,
since it's redundant and we don't want the old name anyway.
This copies the commands log-level and log-target (to query and set the current
settings) from systemd-analyze to systemctl, essentially reverting
a65615ca5d. Controllling the log level settings
of the manager is basic functionality, that should be available even if
systemd-analyze (which is more of an analysis tool) is not installed. This is
like dmesg and journalctl, which should be available even if a debugger and
more advanced tools to analyze the kernel are not available. (Note that dmesg
is used to control the log level too, not just to browse the kernel logs.)
I chose to copy&paste the methods from analyze.c to the new location. There
isn't enough code to share, because acquire_bus() in both places has a
different signature despite the same name, so the only part that is common
is the invocation of sd_bus_set_property().
This structure of the man page originates from the time when systemd was
installed on top of sysvinit systems, and users had an actual chance to
interact with the systemd binary directly. Nowadays it is almost never called
directly, so let's properly explain this in the overview.
The Options section is moved down below the kernel command line, those options
are only needed in special circumstances. Let's refer the reader to the
description of the kernel command line options, and not duplicate the
descriptions (which makes the text longer than necessary and increases chances
for discrepancies).
Systemd is also prominently used as the user manager, let's mention that in the
Overview.
While at it, use "=" only when an argument is required as we nowadays do.
It was only described in systemd(1), making it hard to discover.
Fixes#13561.
The same for $SYSTEMD_URLIFY.
I think all the tools whose man pages include less-variables.xml support
those variables.
DNSOverTLS in strict mode (value yes) does check the server, as it is said in
the first few lines of the option documentation. The check is not performed in
"opportunistic" mode, however, as that is allowed by RFC 7858, section "4.1.
Opportunistic Privacy Profile".
> With such a discovered DNS server, the client might or might not validate the
> resolver. These choices maximize availability and performance, but they leave
> the client vulnerable to on-path attacks that remove privacy.
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.
