This adds support for the new "pids" cgroup controller of 4.3 kernels.
It allows accounting the number of tasks in a cgroup and enforcing
limits on it.
This adds two new setting TasksAccounting= and TasksMax= to each unit,
as well as a gloabl option DefaultTasksAccounting=.
This also updated "cgtop" to optionally make use of the new
kernel-provided accounting.
systemctl has been updated to show the number of tasks for each service
if it is available.
This patch also adds correct support for undoing memory limits for units
using a MemoryLimit=infinity syntax. We do the same for TasksMax= now
and hence keep things in sync here.
.nspawn fiels are simple settings files that may accompany container
images and directories and contain settings otherwise passed on the
nspawn command line. This provides an efficient way to attach execution
data directly to containers.
When generating utmp/wtmp entries, optionally add both LOGIN_PROCESS and
INIT_PROCESS entries or even all three of LOGIN_PROCESS, INIT_PROCESS
and USER_PROCESS entries, instead of just a single INIT_PROCESS entry.
With this change systemd may be used to not only invoke a getty directly
in a SysV-compliant way but alternatively also a login(1) implementation
or even forego getty and login entirely, and invoke arbitrary shells in
a way that they appear in who(1) or w(1).
This is preparation for a later commit that adds a "machinectl shell"
operation to invoke a shell in a container, in a way that is compatible
with who(1) and w(1).
In service file, if the file has some of special SMACK label in
ExecStart= and systemd has no permission for the special SMACK label
then permission error will occurred. To resolve this, systemd should
be able to set its SMACK label to something accessible of ExecStart=.
So introduce new SmackProcessLabel. If label is specified with
SmackProcessLabel= then the child systemd will set its label to
that. To successfully execute the ExecStart=, accessible label should
be specified with SmackProcessLabel=.
Additionally, by SMACK policy, if the file in ExecStart= has no
SMACK64EXEC then the executed process will have given label by
SmackProcessLabel=. But if the file has SMACK64EXEC then the
SMACK64EXEC label will be overridden.

Add a new directive called BusPolicy to define custom endpoint policies. If
one such directive is given, an endpoint object in the service's ExecContext is
created and the given policy is added to it.
Also, rename ProtectedHome= to ProtectHome=, to simplify things a bit.
With this in place we now have two neat options ProtectSystem= and
ProtectHome= for protecting the OS itself (and optionally its
configuration), and for protecting the user's data.
With Symlinks= we can manage one or more symlinks to AF_UNIX or FIFO
nodes in the file system, with the same lifecycle as the socket itself.
This has two benefits: first, this allows us to remove /dev/log and
/dev/initctl from /dev, thus leaving only symlinks, device nodes and
directories in the /dev tree. More importantly however, this allows us
to move /dev/log out of /dev, while still making it accessible there, so
that PrivateDevices= can provide /dev/log too.
ReadOnlySystem= uses fs namespaces to mount /usr and /boot read-only for
a service.
ProtectedHome= uses fs namespaces to mount /home and /run/user
inaccessible or read-only for a service.
This patch also enables these settings for all our long-running services.
Together they should be good building block for a minimal service
sandbox, removing the ability for services to modify the operating
system or access the user's private data.
Similar to CPUShares= and BlockIOWeight= respectively. However only
assign the specified weight during startup. Each control group
attribute is re-assigned as weight by CPUShares=weight and
BlockIOWeight=weight after startup. If not CPUShares= or
BlockIOWeight= be specified, then the attribute is re-assigned to each
default attribute value. (default cpu.shares=1024, blkio.weight=1000)
If only CPUShares=weight or BlockIOWeight=weight be specified, then
that implies StartupCPUShares=weight and StartupBlockIOWeight=weight.
There are three directives to specify bus name polices in .busname
files:
* AllowUser [username] [access]
* AllowGroup [groupname] [access]
* AllowWorld [access]
Where [access] is one of
* 'see': The user/group/world is allowed to see a name on the bus
* 'talk': The user/group/world is allowed to talk to a name
* 'own': The user/group/world is allowed to own a name
There is no user added yet in this commit.
This new unit settings allows restricting which address families are
available to processes. This is an effective way to minimize the attack
surface of services, by turning off entire network stacks for them.
This is based on seccomp, and does not work on x86-32, since seccomp
cannot filter socketcall() syscalls on that platform.
This permit to switch to a specific apparmor profile when starting a daemon. This
will result in a non operation if apparmor is disabled.
It also add a new build requirement on libapparmor for using this feature.
- Allow configuration of an errno error to return from blacklisted
syscalls, instead of immediately terminating a process.
- Fix parsing logic when libseccomp support is turned off
- Only keep the actual syscall set in the ExecContext, and generate the
string version only on demand.
Pass on the line on which a section was decleared to the parsers, so they
can distinguish between multiple sections (if they chose to). Currently
no parsers take advantage of this, but a follow-up patch will do that
to distinguish
[Address]
Address=192.168.0.1/24
Label=one
[Address]
Address=192.168.0.2/24
Label=two
from

We now treat passno as boleans in the generators, and don't need this any more. fsck itself
is able to sequentialize checks on the same local media, so in the common case the ordering
is redundant.
It is still possible to force an order by using .d fragments, in case that is desired.
Replace the very generic cgroup hookup with a much simpler one. With
this change only the high-level cgroup settings remain, the ability to
set arbitrary cgroup attributes is removed, so is support for adding
units to arbitrary cgroup controllers or setting arbitrary paths for
them (especially paths that are different for the various controllers).
This also introduces a new -.slice root slice, that is the parent of
system.slice and friends. This enables easy admin configuration of
root-level cgrouo properties.
This replaces DeviceDeny= by DevicePolicy=, and implicitly adds in
/dev/null, /dev/zero and friends if DeviceAllow= is used (unless this is
turned off by DevicePolicy=).
In order to prepare for the kernel cgroup rework, let's introduce a new
unit type to systemd, the "slice". Slices can be arranged in a tree and
are useful to partition resources freely and hierarchally by the user.
Each service unit can now be assigned to one of these slices, and later
on login users and machines may too.
Slices translate pretty directly to the cgroup hierarchy, and the
various objects can be assigned to any of the slices in the tree.
Instead of having explicit type-specific callbacks that inform the
triggering unit when a triggered unit changes state, make this generic
so that state changes are forwarded betwee any triggered and triggering
unit.
Also, get rid of UnitRef references from automount, timer, path units,
to the units they trigger and rely exclsuively on UNIT_TRIGGER type
dendencies.
The information about the unit for which files are being parsed
is passed all the way down. This way messages land in the journal
with proper UNIT=... or USER_UNIT=... attribution.
'systemctl status' and 'journalctl -u' not displaying those messages
has been a source of confusion for users, since the journal entry for
a misspelt setting was often logged quite a bit earlier than the
failure to start a unit.

This introduces a new static list of known attributes and their special
semantics. This means that cgroup attribute values can now be
automatically translated from user to kernel notation for command line
set settings, too.
This also adds proper support for multi-line attributes.
#pragma once has been "un-deprecated" in gcc since 3.3, and is widely supported
in other compilers.
I've been using and maintaining (rebasing) this patch for a while now, as
it annoyed me to see #ifndef fooblahfoo, etc all over the place,
almost arrogant about the annoyance of having to define all these names to
perform a commen but neccicary functionality, when a completely superior
alternative exists.
I havn't sent it till now, cause its kindof a style change, and it is bad
voodoo to mess with style that has been established by more established
editors. So feel free to lambast me as a crazy bafoon.
v2 - preserve externally used headers
Names= is a source of errors, simply because alias names specified like
this only become relevant after a unit has been loaded but cannot be
used to load a unit.
Let's get rid of the confusion and drop this field. To establish alias
names peope should use symlinks, which have the the benefit of being
useful as key to load a unit, even though they are not taken into
account if unit names are listed but they haven't been explicitly
referenced before.
This also ensures that caps dropped from the bounding set are also
dropped from the inheritable set, to be extra-secure. Usually that should
change very little though as the inheritable set is empty for all our uses
anyway.
This should help making the boot process a bit easier to explore and
understand for the administrator. The simple idea is that "systemctl
status" now shows a link to documentation alongside the other status and
decriptionary information of a service.
This patch adds the necessary fields to all our shipped units if we have
proper documentation for them.
RequiresMountsFor= is a shortcut for adding requires and after
dependencies to all mount units neeed for the specified paths.
This solves a couple of issues regarding dep loop cycles for encrypted
swap.
We finally got the OK from all contributors with non-trivial commits to
relicense systemd from GPL2+ to LGPL2.1+.
Some udev bits continue to be GPL2+ for now, but we are looking into
relicensing them too, to allow free copy/paste of all code within
systemd.
The bits that used to be MIT continue to be MIT.
The big benefit of the relicensing is that closed source code may now
link against libsystemd-login.so and friends.
