It's pretty useful to allow parse_boolean() to take a NULL argument and
return an error in that case, rather than abort. i.e. making this a
runtime rather than programming error allows us to shorten code
elsewhere.
Let's be a bit more careful when parsing major/minor pairs, and filter
out more corner cases. This also means using safe_atou() rather than
sscanf() to avoid weird negative unsigned handling and such.
If 'v' is negative, it's wrong to add the decimal to it, as we'd
actually need to subtract it in this case. But given that we don't want
to allow negative vaues anyway, simply check earlier whether what we
have parsed so far was negative, and react to that before adding the
decimal to it.
These lines are generally out-of-date, incomplete and unnecessary.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.
And port config_parse_exec_oom_score_adjust() over to use it.
While we are at it, let's also fix config_parse_exec_oom_score_adjust()
to accept an empty string for turning off OOM score adjustments set
earlier.
We use MTUs all over the place, let's add a unified, strict parser for
it, that takes MTU ranges into account.
We already have parse_ifindex() close-by, hence this appears to be a
natural addition, in particular as the range checking is not entirely
trivial to do, as it depends on the protocol used.
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.
This macro will read a pointer of any type, return it, and set the
pointer to NULL. This is useful as an explicit concept of passing
ownership of a memory area between pointers.
This takes inspiration from Rust:
https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/option/enum.Option.html#method.take
and was suggested by Alan Jenkins (@sourcejedi).
It drops ~160 lines of code from our codebase, which makes me like it.
Also, I think it clarifies passing of ownership, and thus helps
readability a bit (at least for the initiated who know the new macro)
safe_atou16_full() is like safe_atou16() but also takes a base
parameter. safe_atou16() is then implemented as inline function on top
of it, passing 0 as base. Similar safe_atoux16() is reworked as inline
function too, with 16 as base.
This patch adds safe_atoux16 for parsing an unsigned hexadecimal 16bit int, and
uses that for parsing USB device and vendor IDs.
This fixes a compile error with gcc-8 because while we know that USB IDs are 2 bytes,
the compiler does not know that.

Checking for validity of a PID is relatively easy, but let's add a
helper cal for this too, in order to make things more readable and more
similar to uid_is_valid(), gid_is_valid() and friends.
This adds parse_nice() that parses a nice level and ensures it is in the right
range, via a new nice_is_valid() helper. It then ports over a number of users
to this.
No functional changes.
strtoull() doesn't make it particularly easy to detect passed-in
negative numbers, as it silently converts them to positive ones without
generating any error. Since we are not interested in negative values we
should hence explicitly filter them out by looking at the string
directly and returning ERANGE if we see a leading "-".
