We recently started making more use of malloc_usable_size() and rely on
it (see the string_erase() story). Given that we don't really support
sytems where malloc_usable_size() cannot be trusted beyond statistics
anyway, let's go fully in and rework GREEDY_REALLOC() on top of it:
instead of passing around and maintaining the currenly allocated size
everywhere, let's just derive it automatically from
malloc_usable_size().
I am mostly after this for the simplicity this brings. It also brings
minor efficiency improvements I guess, but things become so much nicer
to look at if we can avoid these allocation size variables everywhere.
Note that the malloc_usable_size() man page says relying on it wasn't
"good programming practice", but I think it does this for reasons that
don't apply here: the greedy realloc logic specifically doesn't rely on
the returned extra size, beyond the fact that it is equal or larger than
what was requested.
(This commit was supposed to be a quick patch btw, but apparently we use
the greedy realloc stuff quite a bit across the codebase, so this ends
up touching *a*lot* of code.)
--no-legend is replaced by --legend=no.
--quiet now implies --legend=no, but --legend=yes may be used to override that.
--quiet controls hints and warnings and such, and --legend controls just the
legends. I think it makes sense to allow both to controlled independently, in
particular --quiet --legend makes sense when using systemctl in a script to
provide some user-visible output.
Fixes#18560.
This is just some refactoring: shifting around of code, not change in
codeflow.
This splits up the way too huge systemctl.c in multiple more easily
digestable files. It roughly follows the rule that each family of verbs
gets its own .c/.h file pair, and so do all the compat executable names
we support. Plus three extra files for sysv compat (which existed before
already, but I renamed slightly, to get the systemctl- prefix lik
everything else), a -util file with generic stuff everything uses, and a
-logind file with everything that talks directly to logind instead of
PID1.
systemctl is still a bit too complex for my taste, but I think this way
itc omes in a more digestable bits at least.
No change of behaviour, just reshuffling of some code.
