This introduces a new function unit_prepare_exec() that encapsulates a
number of calls we do in preparation for spawning off some processes in
all our unit types that do so.
This allows us to neatly unify a bit of code between unit types and
shorten our code.
Let's handle gracefully if a client disconnects very early on.
This builds on #4120, but relaxes the condition checks further, since we
getpeername() might already fail during ExecStartPre= and friends.
Fixes: #7172
Both permit configuring data to pass through STDIN to an invoked
process. StandardInputText= accepts a line of text (possibly with
embedded C-style escapes as well as unit specifiers), which is appended
to the buffer to pass as stdin, followed by a single newline.
StandardInputData= is similar, but accepts arbitrary base64 encoded
data, and will not resolve specifiers or C-style escapes, nor append
newlines.
This may be used to pass input/configuration data to services, directly
in-line from unit files, either in a cooked or in a more raw format.
When preparing for a restart we quickly go through the DEAD/INACTIVE
service state before entering AUTO_RESTART. When doing this, we need to
make sure we don't destroy the FD store. Previously this was done by
checking the failure state of the unit, and keeping the FD store around
when the unit failed, under the assumption that the restart logic will
then get into action.
This is not entirely correct howver, as there might be failure states
that will no result in restarts.
With this commit we slightly alter the logic: a ref counter for the fd
store is added, that is increased right before we handle the restart
logic, and decreased again right-after.
This should ensure that the fdstore lives exactly as long as it needs.
Follow-up for f0bfbfac43.
And let's make use of it to implement two new unit settings with it:
1. LogLevelMax= is a new per-unit setting that may be used to configure
log priority filtering: set it to LogLevelMax=notice and only
messages of level "notice" and lower (i.e. more important) will be
processed, all others are dropped.
2. LogExtraFields= is a new per-unit setting for configuring per-unit
journal fields, that are implicitly included in every log record
generated by the unit's processes. It takes field/value pairs in the
form of FOO=BAR.
Also, related to this, one exisiting unit setting is ported to this new
facility:
3. The invocation ID is now pulled from /run/systemd/units/ instead of
cgroupfs xattrs. This substantially relaxes requirements of systemd
on the kernel version and the privileges it runs with (specifically,
cgroupfs xattrs are not available in containers, since they are
stored in kernel memory, and hence are unsafe to permit to lesser
privileged code).
/run/systemd/units/ is a new directory, which contains a number of files
and symlinks encoding the above information. PID 1 creates and manages
these files, and journald reads them from there.
Note that this is supposed to be a direct path between PID 1 and the
journal only, due to the special runtime environment the journal runs
in. Normally, today we shouldn't introduce new interfaces that (mis-)use
a file system as IPC framework, and instead just an IPC system, but this
is very hard to do between the journal and PID 1, as long as the IPC
system is a subject PID 1 manages, and itself a client to the journal.
This patch cleans up a couple of types used in journal code:
specifically we switch to size_t for a couple of memory-sizing values,
as size_t is the right choice for everything that is memory.
Fixes: #4089Fixes: #3041Fixes: #4441
This replaces the dependencies Set* objects by Hashmap* objects, where
the key is the depending Unit, and the value is a bitmask encoding why
the specific dependency was created.
The bitmask contains a number of different, defined bits, that indicate
why dependencies exist, for example whether they are created due to
explicitly configured deps in files, by udev rules or implicitly.
Note that memory usage is not increased by this change, even though we
store more information, as we manage to encode the bit mask inside the
value pointer each Hashmap entry contains.
Why this all? When we know how a dependency came to be, we can update
dependencies correctly when a configuration source changes but others
are left unaltered. Specifically:
1. We can fix UDEV_WANTS dependency generation: so far we kept adding
dependencies configured that way, but if a device lost such a
dependency we couldn't them again as there was no scheme for removing
of dependencies in place.
2. We can implement "pin-pointed" reload of unit files. If we know what
dependencies were created as result of configuration in a unit file,
then we know what to flush out when we want to reload it.
3. It's useful for debugging: "systemd-analyze dump" now shows
this information, helping substantially with understanding how
systemd's dependency tree came to be the way it came to be.
Failure to spawn ExecStartPost was being handled differently to e.g.
EXIT_FAILURE returned by ExecStartPost. It looks like this was an
oversight. Fix to match documented behaviour.
`man systemd.service`:
> Note that if any of the commands specified in ExecStartPre=, ExecStart=,
> or ExecStartPost= fail (and are not prefixed with "-", see above) or time
> out before the service is fully up, execution continues with commands
> specified in ExecStopPost=, the commands in ExecStop= are skipped.
No need to wait for a timeout when we know things are not going to work out.
When the main process goes away and only notifications from the main process are
accepted, then we will not receive any notifications anymore.
Currently, all three of cgroup_good(), main_pid_good(),
control_pid_good() all return an "int" (two of them propagate errors).
It's a good thing to keep the three functions similar, so let's leave it
at that, but then let's clean up the invocation of the three functions
so that they always clearly acknowledge that the return value is not a
bool, but potentially negative.
The compiler should be good enough to figure this out on its own if this
is a static function, and it makes control_pid_good() an outlier anyway,
and decorators like this tend to bitrot. Hence, to keep things simple
and automatic, let's just drop the decorator.
The processes associated with a service are not just the ones in its
cgroup, but also the control and main processes, which might possibly
live outside of it, for example if they transitioned into their own
cgroups because they registered a PAM session of their own. Hence, if we
get a cgroup empty notification always check if the main PID is still
around before taking action too eagerly.
Fixes: #6045
This slightly changes how we log about failures. Previously,
service_enter_dead() would log that a service unit failed along with its
result code, and unit_notify() would do this again but without the
result code. For other unit types only the latter would take effect.
This cleans this up: we keep the message in unit_notify() only for debug
purposes, and add type-specific log lines to all our unit types that can
fail, and always place them before unit_notify() is invoked.
Or in other words: the duplicate log message for service units is
removed, and all other unit types get a more useful line with the
precise result code.
This makes sure that if we learn via inotify or another event source
that a cgroup is empty, and we checked that this is indeed the case (as
we might get spurious notifications through inotify, as the inotify
logic through the "cgroups.event" is pretty unspecific and might be
trigger for a variety of reasons), then we'll enqueue a defer event for
it, at a priority lower than SIGCHLD handling, so that we know for sure
that if there's waitid() data for a process we used it before
considering the cgroup empty notification.
Fixes: #6608
For some reason we didn't dump the cgroup context for a number of unit
types, including service units. Not sure how this wasn't noticed
before... Add this in.
This commit fixes crash described in
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/6533
Multiple ExecStart lines are allowed only for oneshot services
anyway so it doesn't make sense to call service_run_next_main() with
services of type other than SERVICE_ONESHOT.
Referring back to reproducer from the issue, previously we didn't observe
this problem because s->main_command was reset after daemon-reload hence
we never reached the assert statement in service_run_next_main().
Fixes#6533
"Permissions" was a bit of a misnomer, as it suggests that UNIX file
permission bits are adjusted, which aren't really changed here. Instead,
this is about UNIX credentials such as users or groups, as well as
namespacing, hence let's use a more generic term here, without any
misleading reference to UNIX file permissions: "sandboxing", which shall
refer to all kinds of sandboxing technologies, including UID/GID
dropping, selinux relabelling, namespacing, seccomp, and so on.
The new unit_set_exec_params() call is to units what
manager_set_exec_params() is to the manager object: it initializes the
various fields from the relevant generic properties set.
This adds a per-service restart counter. Each time an automatic
restart is scheduled (due to Restart=) it is increased by one. Its
current value is exposed over the bus as NRestarts=. It is also logged
(in a structured, recognizable way) on each restart.
Note that this really only counts automatic starts triggered by Restart=
(which it nicely complements). Manual restarts will reset the counter,
as will explicit calls to "systemctl reset-failed". It's supposed to be
a tool for measure the automatic restart feature, and nothing else.
Fixes: #4126
Some kdbus_flag and memfd related parts are left behind, because they
are entangled with the "legacy" dbus support.
test-bus-benchmark is switched to "manual". It was already broken before
(in the non-kdbus mode) but apparently nobody noticed. Hopefully it can
be fixed later.
This moves pretty much all uses of getpid() over to getpid_raw(). I
didn't specifically check whether the optimization is worth it for each
replacement, but in order to keep things simple and systematic I
switched over everything at once.
This introduces {State,Cache,Log,Configuration}Directory= those are
similar to RuntimeDirectory=. They create the directories under
/var/lib, /var/cache/, /var/log, or /etc, respectively, with the mode
specified in {State,Cache,Log,Configuration}DirectoryMode=.
This also fixes#6391.
This also alters the documentation to recommend memfds rather than /run
for serializing state across reboots. That's because /run doesn't
actually have the same lifecycle as the fd store, as it is cleared out
on restarts.
Fixes: #5606
'n_fds' field in the ExecParameters structure was counting the total number of
file descriptors to be passed to a unit.
This counter also includes the number of passed socket fds which is counted by
'n_socket_fds' already.
This patch removes that redundancy by replacing 'n_fds' with
'n_storage_fds'. The new field only counts the fds passed via the storage store
mechanism. That way each fd is counted at one place only.
Subsequently the patch makes sure to fix code that used 'n_fds' and also wanted
to iterate through all of them by explicitly adding 'n_socket_fds' + 'n_storage_fds'.
Suggested by Lennart.
Make sure to only apply the O_NONBLOCK flag to the fds passed via socket
activation.
Previously the flag was also applied to the fds which came from the fd store
but this was incorrect since services, after being restarted, expect that these
passed fds have their flags unchanged and can be reused as before.
The documentation was a bit unclear about this so clarify it.
