This adds a new bus call to service and scope units called AttachProcesses() that moves arbitrary processes into the cgroup of the unit. The primary user for this new API is systemd itself: the systemd --user instance uses this call of the systemd --system instance to migrate processes if itself gets the request to migrate processes and the kernel refuses this due to access restrictions. The primary use-case of this is to make "systemd-run --scope --user …" invoked from user session scopes work correctly on pure cgroupsv2 environments. There, the kernel refuses to migrate processes between two unprivileged-owned cgroups unless the requestor as well as the ownership of the closest parent cgroup all match. This however is not the case between the session-XYZ.scope unit of a login session and the user@ABC.service of the systemd --user instance. The new logic always tries to move the processes on its own, but if that doesn't work when being the user manager, then the system manager is asked to do it instead. The new operation is relatively restrictive: it will only allow to move the processes like this if the caller is root, or the UID of the target unit, caller and process all match. Note that this means that unprivileged users cannot attach processes to scope units, as those do not have "owning" users (i.e. they have now User= field). Fixes: #3388 |
