In D-Bus, clients connect to a bus (the usual case), or use direct
questions to each other (the unusual case). A bus is a program one can
connect to and implemented by dbus-daemon or dbus-broker. HOwever,
busses never connect between each other, that doesn't exist. Hence don't
claim so.
This is probably confusion about the fact that sd-bus calls D-Bus
connection objects just "sd_bus" for simplicity, given they are used in
99% of the cases to connect to a bus — only in exceptional cases they
are used for direct connections between peers without involving a bus.

Since a long time the D-Bus spec knows a special bit in its message
header for indicating that "interactive" authentication is OK. The
original hostnamed API is before that was added hence most functions
expose that boolean as explicit argument.
For new added functions let's get rid of it, the message flag is good
enough and replaces it with complete functionality.
No new APIs should carry the "interactive" boolean flag explicitly as
argument anymore.

The general approach of kernel-install was that each plugin would drop in some
files into the entry directory. But this doesn't scale well, because if we have
multiple initrd generators, or multiple initrds, each generator would need to
recreate the logic to put the generated files in the right place.
Also, effective cleanup is impossible if anything goes wrong on the way, so we
could end up with unused files in $BOOT.
So let's invert the process: plugins drop files into $KERNEL_INSTALL_STAGING_AREA,
and at the end 90-loaderentry.install DTRT with those files.
This allow new plugins like 50-mkosi-initrd.install to be significantly simpler.
Remove incorrect claim that C escapes (such as \t and \n) are recognized and that control characters are disallowed. Specify the allowed characters and escapes with single quotes, with double quotes, and without quotes.
Sometimes hardware vendor does not set DMI info correctly.
Already there is a way that the dbus properties can be overriden by
using hwdb. But that is not user friendly.
This adds two new fields in /etc/machine-info.
Closes#22207.
Currently, running "meson build" followed by "meson test -C build"
will result in many failed tests due to missing dependencies. This
commit adds the missing dependencies to make sure no tests fail.
Add a new setting that follows the same principle and implementation
as ExtensionImages, but using directories as sources.
It will be used to implement support for extending portable images
with directories, since portable services can already use a directory
as root.
Fixes#6308: people want to be able to link a unit file via 'systemctl enable'
from a git checkout or such and refer to other files in the same repo.
The new specifiers make that easy.
%y/%Y is used because other more obvious choices like %d/%D or %p/%P are
not available because at least on of the two letters is already used.
The new specifiers are only available in units. Technically it would be
trivial to add then in [Install] too, but I don't see how they could be
useful, so I didn't do that.
I added both %y and %Y because both were requested in the issue, and because I
think both could be useful, depending on the case. %Y to refer to other files
in the same repo, and %y in the case where a single repo has multiple unit files,
and e.g. each unit has some corresponding asset named after the unit file.
The idea is that when not set, we do whatever we did in the past. But
with a new setting of initrd_generator=mkosi-initrd, mkosi-initrd will
generate an initrd.
In particular, mention the contract the generator has with external
ExecCondition= binaries that may be provided by desktop environments.
But, also mention all the other relevant keys. In particular
X-systemd-skip= is important to be documented.
Strictly speaking, this breaks the backward compatibility, but I guess
in most cases people already sets Scope=link for such routes.
This behavior matches with how 'ip route' command adds such route by
default.
