Let's make sure we can safely load configuration files based on a root
fd, including XAT_FDROOT.
(While we are at it, always pass path to root fs before fd to root fs,
following our recently updated CODING_STYLE)
Let's not leak details from src/shared and src/libsystemd into
src/basic, even though you can't actually do anything useful with
just forward declarations from src/shared.
The sd-forward.h header is put in src/libsystemd/sd-common as we
don't have a directory for shared internal headers for libsystemd
yet.
Let's also rename forward.h to basic-forward.h to keep things
self-explanatory.
conf-parser.h pulls in a lot of other headers as needed by all the
macros it defines. We can't easily move the implementations of these
macro to conf-parser.c, so let's instead introduce conf-parser-forward.h
with just the stuff in it needed by other header files.
We'll make use of this when cleaning up includes to only include the
minimal parts of conf-parser.h that are required by other headers without
pulling in the kitchen sink.
This also makes all conf parsers defined in conf-parser.c return 1
on success, 0 on non-critical error.
Also, use free_and_strdup_warn() where applicable.
- use GREEDY_REALLOC() and FOREACH_ARRAY(),
- do not set an array with only terminating 'invalid' value.
Note, this macro is only used by parsing NamePolicy= and AlternativeNamesPolicy=
in .link files. and udevd correctly handles both an empty array and an
array with only 'invalid'. Hence, this does not change any behavior.
Typically, conf parsers will ignore most errors during parsing strings
and return 0. Let's return 1 on success. Otherwise it is hard to reused
these function in another conf parser.
Update frameworks that work automatically in the background
occasionally need to schedule reboots. Systemd-logind already
provides a nice mechanism to schedule shutdowns, send notfications
and block logins short before the time. Systemd has a framework for
calendar events, so we may conveniently use logind to define a
maintenance time for reboots.
The existing ScheduleShutdown DBus method in logind expects a usec_t
with an absolute time. Passing USEC_INFINITY as magic value now tells
logind to take the time from the configured maintenance time if set.
"shutdown -r" leverages that and uses the maintenance time
automatically if configured. The one minute default is still used if
nothing was specified.
Similarly the new 'auto' setting for the --when parameter of systemctl
uses the maintenance time if configured or a one minute timer like the
shutdown command.
This means the main config file is loaded also from /run and /usr.
We should load the main config file from all the places where we load drop-ins.
I realize I had a giant blind spot: I always assumed that we load config files
from /etc, /run, /usr/local/lib, /usr/lib. But it turns out that we only used
those paths for drop-ins. For the main config file, we only looked in /etc. The
docs actually partially described this behaviour, i.e. most SYNOPSIS sections
and some parts of the text, but not others.
This is strange, because 6495361c7d was completely
bogus with the behaviour before this patch. We had a huge discussion before it
was merged, and clearly nobody noticed this. Similarly, in the previous version
of the current pull request, we had a long discussion about the appropriate
order of directories, and apparently nobody noticed that there was no order,
because only looked in one directory. So the blind spot seems to have been
shared.
Also, systemd-analyze cat-config behaved incorrectly, i.e. its behaviour matches
the new behaviour.
Possibly, in the future it'll make it easier to add support for --root.
The function was partially implementing chroot lookups. It would be given
file names that were prefixed with the chroot, so it would mostly work.
But if any of those files were symlinks, fopen() would do the wrong thing.
Also we don't need locking.
So give 'root' as the argument and use chase_and_fopen_unlocked() to get
proper chroot-aware lookups.
The only place where config_parse_many() is called with root is is repart.c.
So this is a follow-up for e594a3b154 and
34f2fd5096.
This essentially reverts 5656cdfeea. I find it
much easier to understand what is going on when the
path-relative-to-the-search-path is passed in full, instead of being constructed
from two parts, with one of the parts being implicit in some places.
Also, we call 'systemd-analyze cat-config <path>' with <path> with the same
meaning, so this makes the internal and external APIs more consistent.
This compresses repetetive code and makes it easier to add new options
in networkd. The formatting of error messages becomes uniform. The
error message always specifies the rvalue literally, instead of using
a "descriptive name". This makes the message much easier to handle for
the user.
I opted to add just one parser, and wrap it with inline functions to proxy
the type. This is less verbose than copying functions for each type
separately, and the compiler should be able to get rid of the inline wrapper
almost entirely.
asserts are reordered to use the same order as the parameter list.
This makes the code easier to read.
No functional change intended, apart from the difference in error message
formatting.
All daemons use a similar scheme to read their main config files and theirs
drop-ins. The main config files are always stored in /etc/systemd directory and
it's easy enough to construct the name of the drop-in directories based on the
name of the main config file.
Hence the new helper does that internally, which allows to reduce and simplify
the args passed previously to config_parse_many_nulstr().
Besides the overall code simplification it results:
16 files changed, 87 insertions(+), 159 deletions(-)
it allows to identify clearly the locations in the code where configuration
files are parsed.
This helper is just like config_parse_string() but does some superficial
checks for control characters and quotes.
In most cases we currently use config_parse_string() we probably want to
use config_parse_safe_string() for safety reasons.
