"ratelimit" is a real word, so we don't need to use the other form anywhere.
We had both forms in various places, let's standarize on the shorter and more
correct one.
People do have usernames with dots, and it makes them very unhappy that systemd
doesn't like their that. It seems that there is no actual problem with allowing
dots in the username. In particular chown declares ":" as the official
separator, and internally in systemd we never rely on "." as the seperator
between user and group (nor do we call chown directly). Using dots in the name
is probably not a very good idea, but we don't need to care. Debian tools
(adduser) do not allow users with dots to be created.
This patch allows *existing* names with dots to be used in User, Group,
SupplementaryGroups, SocketUser, SocketGroup fields, both in unit files and on
the command line. DynamicUsers and sysusers still follow the strict policy.
user@.service and tmpfiles already allowed arbitrary user names, and this
remains unchanged.
Fixes#12754.
Make possible to set NUMA allocation policy for manager. Manager's
policy is by default inherited to all forked off processes. However, it
is possible to override the policy on per-service basis. Currently we
support, these policies: default, prefer, bind, interleave, local.
See man 2 set_mempolicy for details on each policy.
Overall NUMA policy actually consists of two parts. Policy itself and
bitmask representing NUMA nodes where is policy effective. Node mask can
be specified using related option, NUMAMask. Default mask can be
overwritten on per-service level.
We store the affinity mask in the native endian. However, over D-Bus we
must transfer the mask in little endian byte order.
This is the second part of c367f996f5.
The CPU_SET_S api is pretty bad. In particular, it has a parameter for the size
of the array, but operations which take two (CPU_EQUAL_S) or even three arrays
(CPU_{AND,OR,XOR}_S) still take just one size. This means that all arrays must
be of the same size, or buffer overruns will occur. This is exactly what our
code would do, if it received an array of unexpected size over the network.
("Unexpected" here means anything different from what cpu_set_malloc() detects
as the "right" size.)
Let's rework this, and store the size in bytes of the allocated storage area.
The code will now parse any number up to 8191, independently of what the current
kernel supports. This matches the kernel maximum setting for any architecture,
to make things more portable.
Fixes#12605.
Building on previous commit, let's pass the unit name when parsing
dbus message or builtin whitelist, which is better than nothing.
seccomp_parse_syscall_filter() is not needed anymore, so it is removed,
and seccomp_parse_syscall_filter_full() is renamed to take its place.
Let services use a private UTS namespace. In addition, a seccomp filter is
installed on set{host,domain}name and a ro bind mounts on
/proc/sys/kernel/{host,domain}name.
Add LogRateLimitIntervalSec= and LogRateLimitBurst= options for
services. If provided, these values get passed to the journald
client context, and those values are used in the rate limiting
function in the journal over the the journald.conf values.
Part of #10230
The functions protect_{home,system}_from_string() are not used
except for defining protect_{home,system}_or_bool_from_string().
This makes protect_{home,system}_from_string() support boolean
strings, and drops protect_{home,system}_or_bool_from_string().
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.
They are not needed, because anything that is non-zero is converted
to true.

This new setting is supposed to be useful in most cases where
"MountFlags=slave" is currently used, i.e. as an explicit way to run a
service in its own mount namespace and decouple propagation from all
mounts of the new mount namespace towards the host.
The effect of MountFlags=slave and PrivateMounts=yes is mostly the same,
as both cause a CLONE_NEWNS namespace to be opened, and both will result
in all mounts within it to be mounted MS_SLAVE. The difference is mostly
on the conceptual/philosophical level: configuring the propagation mode
is nothing people should have to think about, in particular as the
matter is not precisely easyto grok. Moreover, MountFlags= allows configuration
of "private" and "slave" modes which don't really make much sense to use
in real-life and are quite confusing. In particular PrivateMounts=private means
mounts made on the host stay pinned for good by the service which is
particularly nasty for removable media mount. And PrivateMounts=shared
is in most ways a NOP when used a alone...
The main technical difference between setting only MountFlags=slave or
only PrivateMounts=yes in a unit file is that the former remounts all
mounts to MS_SLAVE and leaves them there, while that latter remounts
them to MS_SHARED again right after. The latter is generally a nicer
approach, since it disables propagation, while MS_SHARED is afterwards
in effect, which is really nice as that means further namespacing down
the tree will get MS_SHARED logic by default and we unify how
applications see our mounts as we always pass them as MS_SHARED
regardless whether any mount namespacing is used or not.
The effect of PrivateMounts=yes was implied already by all the other
mount namespacing options. With this new option we add an explicit knob
for it, to request it without any other option used as well.

The function is similar to path_kill_slashes() but also removes
initial './', trailing '/.', and '/./' in the path.
When the second argument of path_simplify() is false, then it
behaves as the same as path_kill_slashes(). Hence, this also
replaces path_kill_slashes() with path_simplify().
