A call to sd_event_source_set_io_events() skipps calling into the kernel
if the new event-mask matches the old one. This is safe for
level-triggered sources as the kernel moves them onto the ready-list
automatically if events change. However, edge-triggered sources might not
be on the ready-list even though events are present.
A call to sd_event_source_set_io_events() with EPOLLET set might thus be
used to just move the io-source onto the ready-list so the next poll
will return it again. This is very useful to avoid starvation in
priority-based event queues.
Imagine a read() loop on an edge-triggered fd. If we cannot read data fast
enough to drain the receive queue, we might decide to skip reading for now
and schedule it for later. On edge-triggered io-sources we have to make
sure it's put on the ready-list so the next dispatch-round will return it
again if it's still the highest priority task. We could make sd-event
handle edge-triggered sources directly and allow marking them ready again.
However, it's much simpler to let the kernel do that for now via
EPOLL_CTL_MOD.
systemctl -H root@foobar:waldi
will now show a list of services running on container "waldi" on host
"foobar", using "root" for authenticating at "foobar".
Since entereing a container requires priviliges, this will only work
correctly for root logins.
When a caller drops all references to a bus and its messages while the
messages where still queue, this causes the bus to reference the
messages, and the messages to reference the bus, without anybody else
keeping a reference, which is something we so far considered a leak, and
tried to fix with a GC logic that would recognize cases like this, and
drop the reference.
This GC logic has been broken sofar, and remained unfixed. This commit
removes it altogther, replacing it with nothing. The rationale is that
simply because all refs to the bus have been dropped its queued messages
should *still* be written to the bus, even if the caller doesn't retain
any reference to either bus nor message. This means it was actually
wrong to attempt to clean up the bus in this case.
The proper way how applications should handle this is by explicitly
invoking sd_bus_close(), when they want busses to go away. This is
probably want they want to do anyway to avoid getting spurious
callbacks after they stopped using a bus.
This new tool is based on "sd-path", a new (so far unexported) API for
libsystemd, that can hopefully grow into a workable API covering /opt
and more one day.
It seems unnecessary to support this, and we rather should avoid
allowing this at all, so that people don't program against this
sloppily and we end up remarshalling all the time...
sd_pid_notify() operates like sd_notify(), however operates on a
different PID (for example the parent PID of a process).
Make use of this in systemd-notify, so that message are sent from the
PID specified with --pid= rather than the usually shortlived PID of
systemd-notify itself.
This should increase the likelyhood that PID 1 can identify the cgroup
that the notification message was sent from properly.
Only accept cpu quota values in percentages, get rid of period
definition.
It's not clear whether the CFS period controllable per-cgroup even has a
future in the kernel, hence let's simplify all this, hardcode the period
to 100ms and only accept percentage based quota values.
These are the counterpart of "floating" bus slots, i.e. event sources
that are bound to the lifetime of the event object itself, and thus
don't require an explicit reference to be kept.
This makes callback behaviour more like sd-event or sd-resolve, and
creates proper object for unregistering callbacks.
Taking the refernce to the slot is optional. If not taken life time of
the slot will be bound to the underlying bus object (or in the case of
an async call until the reply has been recieved).
The bitmask is deprecated in the kernel, so move to the new interface. At the moment
this does not make a difference for us, but it avoids having to change the API in the future.
