This way we can unify handling of credentials that are attached to
messages, or can be queried for bus name owners or connection peers.
This also adds the ability to extend incomplete credential information
with data from /proc,
Also, provide a convenience call that will automatically determine the
most appropriate credential object for an incoming message, by using the
the attached information if possible, the sending name information if
available and otherwise the peer's credentials.
A bridge is specified in a .netdev file with a section [Bridge]
and at least the entry Name=.
A link may be joined to a bridge if the .network applied to it has
a Bridge= entry giving the name of the bridge in its [Network] section.
We eagerly create all bridges on startup, and links are added to
bridges as soon as they both appear.
All calls that set a sd_bus_error structure will now return the same
error converted to a negative errno. This may be used as syntactic sugar
to return from a function and setting a bus_error structure in one go.
Also, translate all Linux Exyz (EIO, EINVAL, EUCLEAN, EPIPE, ...)
automatically into counterparts in the (new) "Posix.Error." namespace.
If we fail to allocate memory for the components of a sd_bus_error
automatically reset it to an OOM error which we always can write.
This patch converts PID 1 to libsystemd-bus and thus drops the
dependency on libdbus. The only remaining code using libdbus is a test
case that validates our bus marshalling against libdbus' marshalling,
and this dependency can be turned off.
This patch also adds a couple of things to libsystem-bus, that are
necessary to make the port work:
- Synthesizing of "Disconnected" messages when bus connections are
severed.
- Support for attaching multiple vtables for the same interface on the
same path.
This patch also fixes the SetDefaultTarget() and GetDefaultTarget() bus
calls which used an inappropriate signature.
As a side effect we will now generate PropertiesChanged messages which
carry property contents, rather than just invalidation information.
I know that this is a pretty big net to catch some small fish,
but we *do* regularly forget to properly export symbols that
were supposed to be exported.
This time sd_bus_get_current and some renamed symbols are caught.
For GNOME (Continuous), we are unlikely to require or want
systemd-networkd in the near term future; all of the tools and code
are targeting NetworkManager.
The long term story is still an open question of course, but for now,
there's no reason for gnome-continuous to build or ship this.
This daemon listens for and configures network devices tagged with
'systemd-networkd'. By default, no devices are tagged so this daemon
can safely run in parallel with existing network daemons/scripts.
Networks are configured in /etc/systemd/network/*.network. The first .network
file that matches a given link is applied. The matching logic is similar to
the one for .link files, but additionally supports matching on interface name.
The mid-term aim is to provide an alternative to ad-hoc scripts currently used
in initrd's and for wired setups that don't change much (e.g., as seen on
servers/and some embedded systems).
Currently, static addresses and a gateway can be configured.
Example .network file:
[Match]
Name=wlp2s0
[Network]
Description=My Network
Gateway=192.168.1.1
Address=192.168.1.23/24
Address=fe80::9aee:94ff:fe3f:c618/64
NOTE: the show-* subcommands do not print some properties:
this are those with types like (so), a(so), (uo),...
we need to fix this, but I'm not sure how
The sd-event APIs should be available only as part of libsystemd-bus so
that the utility calls are not linked into each independently and we can
minimize the number of libraries we have.
To write useful bus code clients need to validate utf8 frequently since
the bus reacts allergic to it. Since glibc does not provide any calls
for this, let's provide it as part of libsystemd-bus.
Old static libsystemd-bus.la becomes libsystemd-bus-internal.la.
memfd functions are also exported in the same library.
(Best viewed with --color-words -U0).
