It can be one of "foreign", "missing", "stub", "static", "uplink",
depending on how /etc/resolv.conf is set up:
foreign → someone/something else manages /etc/resolv.conf,
systemd-resolved is just the consumer
missing → /etc/resolv.conf is missing altogether
stub/static/uplink → the file is managed by resolved, with the
well-known modes
Fixes: #17159
Let's turn off the search domain logic if a trailing dot is specified
when looking up hostnames and RRs via the Varlink + D-Bus APIs (and thus
also when doing so via nss-resolve). (This doesn't affect lookups via
the stub, since for the any search path logic is done client side
anyway)
It might make sense to force the DNS protocol in this case too (and
disable LLMR + mDNS), but we'll leave that for a different PR — if it
even makes sense. It might also make sense to disable the logic of never
routing single-label lookups to the Internet if a trailing to is
specified, but this needs more discussion too.
It's strictly bus-specific, hence let's move this to resolved-bus.c like
the rest of the bus specific logic.
This is also in preparation for adding an alternative varlink transport,
which needs similar functionality, but varlink instead of bus-specific.
Let's prepare for adding a new varlink interface, and thus rename the
"request" field to "bus_request", so that we can later add a
varlink_request field too.
It's not that I think that "hostname" is vastly superior to "host name". Quite
the opposite — the difference is small, and in some context the two-word version
does fit better. But in the tree, there are ~200 occurrences of the first, and
>1600 of the other, and consistent spelling is more important than any particular
spelling choice.
This is useful to raise the log level for a single transaction or a few,
without affecting other state of the resolved as a restart would.
The log level can only be set, I didn't bother with having the ability
to restore the original as in pid1.
In subsequent commits, calls to if_nametoindex() will be replaced by a wrapper
that falls back to alternative name resolution over netlink. netlink support
requires libsystemd (for sd-netlink), and we don't want to add any functions
that require netlink in basic/. So stuff that calls if_nametoindex() for user
supplied interface names, and everything that depends on that, needs to be
moved.
Notifications are only sent for the top object, and not for individual
links. This should be enough for the most obvious cases where somebody
just cares about the effective set of servers.
Fixes#13721.
This matches what is done in networkd very closely. In fact even the
policy descriptions are all identical (with s/network/resolve), except
for the last one:
resolved has org.freedesktop.resolve1.revert while
networkd has org.freedesktop.network1.revert-ntp and
org.freedesktop.network1.revert-dns so the description is a bit different.
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1035#section-2.3.1 says (approximately)
that only letters, numbers, and non-leading non-trailing dashes are allowed
(for entries with A/AAAA records). We set no restrictions.
hosts(5) says:
> Host names may contain only alphanumeric characters, minus signs ("-"), and
> periods ("."). They must begin with an alphabetic character and end with an
> alphanumeric character.
nss-files follows those rules, and will ignore names in /etc/hosts that do not
follow this rule.
Let's follow the documented rules for /etc/hosts. In particular, this makes us
consitent with nss-files, reducing surprises for the user.
I'm pretty sure we should apply stricter filtering to names received over DNS
and LLMNR and MDNS, but it's a bigger project, because the rules differ
depepending on which level the label appears (rules for top-level names are
stricter), and this patch takes the minimalistic approach and only changes
behaviour for /etc/hosts.
Escape syntax is also disallowed in /etc/hosts, even if the resulting character
would be allowed. Other tools that parse /etc/hosts do not support this, and
there is no need to use it because no allowed characters benefit from escaping.
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.
Files which are installed as-is (any .service and other unit files, .conf
files, .policy files, etc), are left as is. My assumption is that SPDX
identifiers are not yet that well known, so it's better to retain the
extended header to avoid any doubt.
I also kept any copyright lines. We can probably remove them, but it'd nice to
obtain explicit acks from all involved authors before doing that.
