Previously, unit_{start,stop,reload} would call the low-level cgroup
unfreeze function whenever a unit was started, stopped, or reloaded. It
did so with no error checking. This call would ultimately recurse up the
cgroup tree, and unfreeze all the parent cgroups of the unit, unless an
error occurred (in which case I have no idea what would happen...)
After the freeze/thaw rework in a previous commit, this can no longer
work. If we recursively thaw the parent cgroups of the unit, there may
be sibling units marked as PARENT_FROZEN which will no longer actually
have frozen parents. Fixing this is a lot more complicated than simply
disallowing start/stop/reload on a frozen unit

So far credentials are a concept for system services only: to encrypt or
decrypt credential you must be privileged, as only then you can access
the TPM and the host key.
Let's break this up a bit: let's add a "user-scoped" credential, that
are specific to users. Internally this works by adding another step to
the acquisition of the symmetric encryption key for the credential: if a
"user-scoped" credential is used we'll generate an symmetric encryption
key K as usual, but then we'll use it to calculate
K' = HMAC(K, flags || uid || machine-id || username)
and then use the resulting K' as encryption key instead. This basically
includes the (public) user's identity in the encryption key, ensuring
that only if the right user credentials are specified the correct key
can be acquired.
This is not a hot path, but it seems silly to evalute subsequent branches,
which can never match once one has matched. Also, it makes the code harder to
read, because the reader has to first figure out that only one branch can
match.
When running an image that cannot be mounted (e.g.: key missing intentionally
for development purposes), there's a retry loop that takes some time
and slows development down. Add an env var to disable it.
Let's get rid of the confusing goto so that the flow is more
straightforward. Note that the behavior is slightly changed:
previously, ret_filtered would be an empty string even if
the original opts passed in is NULL, but after this commit
it returns NULL too. But this shouldn't matter, as all our
code handles NULL opts gracefully.
I added the filtering in 752fedbea7 as a way
to reduce the number of items in the tables. I thought it's "obvious", but
it might not be so.
One immediate problem is that the filter is broken, because on arm64,
os.uname().machine returns "aarch64", so we incorrectly filter out the arm
syscalls (there is just one: arm_fadvise64_64). Of course we could fix the
filter, but I think it's better to nuke it altogether. The filter on applies to
1 arm syscall and 5 s390 syscalls, and we have 500+ other syscalls, so this
"optimization" doesn't really matter. OTOH, if we get the filter wrong,
the result is bad. And also, the existence of the filter at all creates
problems for cross-builds.
I wanted to get rid of 'generate-syscall-list.py', but we need to generate a
backslash in the output. https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/1564 makes
this very very hard, since any attempt to put a backslash an inline argument
results in the backslash being replaces by a forward slash, which doesn't quite
have the same meaning. So let's use a standalone script until
https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/1564 is resolved.
`system.hostname` credential is treated similarly to the pre-existing
`system.machine_id` credential. It is considered after /etc/hostname,
but prior to the kernel defaults or os-release defaults.
Fixes#30667.

When we want to tint the bg color we don't care about the hue, we want
to set it ourself after all, hence make the arguments optional, so that
we don't even have to ask for it.
These are wrappers around getpwuid_r() and friends, and will allocate the
right-sized buffer for this call.
We so far had multiple implementations of a buffer allocation loop
around getpwuid_r() and friends, and they all suck in some way. Let's
clean this up and add a common implementation, and use it everywhere.
Also, be more careful with error numbers, in particular systematically
turn ENOENT into ENOSRCH (the former is what is returned if /etc/passwd
is absent, which we want to consider identical to user not existing,
which is ENOSRCH). We so far did this at some invocations, but not all.
There are some invocations of getpwuid() left in the codebase. We really
should fix those too, and have a single unified implementation of the
logic, but those are not as trivial to convert, so left for another
time.
There's some appetite to have the full os-release/machine-info data
exposed by hostnamed.
let's do so in the Describe() method and via Varlink. It's trivial after
all.

So if we tint the background of a ptyfwd session with a color and the
session ends, then so far we reset the bg color and clear till the end
of line.
Let's instead clear till the end of the screen. This is nicer since it
means that any follow-up output will not be affected by the changed
background color anymore.
