Franck Bui 100d5f6ee6 user-util: add new wrappers for reading/writing {passwd,shadow,gshadow} database files (#8521)
The API povided by the glibc is too error-prone as one has to deal directly
with errno in order to detect if errors occured.

Suggested by Zbigniew.

Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 7b1aaf6633 sysusers: allow the shell to be specified
This is necessary for some system users where the "login shell" is
set to a specific binary.

Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek d1e4b8fd96 sysusers: emit a bit more info at debug level when locking fails
This is the first error message when running unprivileged, and the message is
unspecific, so let's at least add some logging at debug level to make this less
confusing.

Lennart Poettering 24eccc3414 nss-systemd,user-util: add a way how synthesizing "nobody" can be turned off
This is quite ugly, but provides us with an avenue for moving
distributions to define the "nobody" user properly without breaking legacy
systems that us the name for other stuff.

The idea is basically, that the distribution adopts the new definition
of "nobody" (and thus recompiles systemd with it) and then touches
/etc/systemd/dont-synthesize-nobody on legacy systems to turn off
possibly conflicting synthesizing of the nobody name by systemd.

Lennart Poettering 3a664727fa user-util: add UID_NOBODY defines that resolve to (uid_t) 65534
We use it all over the place, let's add a #define for it. Makes things
easier greppable, and more explanatory I think.

Lennart Poettering 8343827793 nss-systemd: tweak checks when we consult PID 1 for dynamic UID/GID lookups
Instead of contacting PID 1 for dynamic UID/GID lookups for all
UIDs/GIDs that do not qualify as "system" do the more precise check
instead: check if they actually qualify for the "dynamic" range.

Lennart Poettering ece877d434 user-util: add new uid_is_system() helper
This adds uid_is_system() and gid_is_system(), similar in style to
uid_is_dynamic(). That a helper like this is useful is illustrated by
the fact that test-condition.c didn't get the check right so far, which
this patch fixes.

Lennart Poettering 87d5e4f286 build-sys: make the dynamic UID range, and the container UID range configurable
Also, export these ranges in our pkg-config files.

Giuseppe Scrivano 36d854780c core: do not fail in a container if we can't use setgroups
It might be blocked through /proc/PID/setgroups

Lennart Poettering be39ccf3a0 execute: move suppression of HOME=/ and SHELL=/bin/nologin into user-util.c
This adds a new call get_user_creds_clean(), which is just like
get_user_creds() but returns NULL in the home/shell parameters if they contain
no useful information. This code previously lived in execute.c, but by
generalizing this we can reuse it in run.c.

Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 61755fdae0 journald: do not create split journals for dynamic users
Dynamic users should be treated like system users, and their logs
should end up in the main system journal.

Lennart Poettering e4631b48e1 sysusers: move various user credential validity checks to src/basic/
This way we can reuse them for validating User=/Group= settings in unit files
(to be added in a later commit).

Also, add some tests for them.

Lennart Poettering ccabee0d64 nspawn: make -U a tiny bit smarter
With this change -U will turn on user namespacing only if the kernel actually
supports it and otherwise gracefully degrade to non-userns mode.

Daniel Mack b26fa1a2fb tree-wide: remove Emacs lines from all files
This should be handled fine now by .dir-locals.el, so need to carry that
stuff in every file.

Thomas Hindoe Paaboel Andersen 71d35b6b55 tree-wide: sort includes in *.h
This is a continuation of the previous include sort patch, which
only sorted for .c files.

Lennart Poettering ee104e11e3 user-util: move UID/GID related macros from macro.h to user-util.h 2015-10-27 13:25:57 +01:00
Lennart Poettering e929bee09a util-lib: move take_password_lock() to user-util.[ch]
Also, rename it take_etc_passwd_lock(), in order to make it more
expressive.

Lennart Poettering d02608170e util: remove lookup_uid(), replace by uid_to_name()
So far we had two pretty much identical calls in user-util.[ch]:
lookup_uid() and uid_to_name(). Get rid of the former, in favour of the
latter, and while we are at it, rewrite it, to use getpwuid_r()
correctly, inside an allocation loop, as POSIX intended.
