Previously, we'd encode PCR policies strictly with the SHA256 PCR bank
set. However, as it appears not all hw implement those. Sad.
Let's add some minimal logic to auto-detect supported PCR banks: if
SHA256 is supported, use that. But if not, automatically fall back to
SHA1.
This then changes both the LUKS code, and the credentials code to
serialize the selected bank, along with the rest of the data in order to
make this robust.
This extends the LUK2 JSON metadata in a compatible way. The credentials
encryption format is modified in an incompatible way however, but given
that this is not part of any official release should be OK.
Fixes: #20134
Boot loaders are software like any other, and hence muse be updated in
regular intervals. Let's add a simple (optional) service that updates
sd-boot automatically from the host if it is found installed but
out-of-date in the ESP.
Note that traditional distros probably should invoke "bootctl update"
directly from the package scripts whenver they update the sd-boot
package. This new service is primarily intended for image-based update
systems, i.e. where the rootfs or /usr are atomically updated in A/B
style and where the current boot loader should be synced into the ESP
from the currently booted image every now and then. It can also act as
safety net if the packaging scripts in classic systems are't doing the
bootctl update stuff themselves.
Since updating boot loaders mit be a tiny bit risky (even though we try
really hard to make them robust, by fsck'ing the ESP and mounting it only on
demand, by doing updates mostly as single file updates and by fsync()ing
heavily) this is an optional feature, i.e. subject to "systemctl
enable". However, since it's the right thing to do I think, it's enabled
by default via the preset logic.
Note that the updating logic is implemented gracefully: i.e. it's a NOP
if the boot loader is already new enough, or was never installed.
Previously, the "bootctl update" logic would refrain from downrgading a
boot loader, but if the boot loader that is installed already matched
the version we could install we'd install it anyway, under the
assumption this was effectively without effect. This behaviour was handy
while developing boot loaders, since installing a modified boot loader
didn't require a version bump.
However, outside of the systems of boot loader developers I don't think
this behaviour makes much sense: we should always emphasize doing
minimal changes to the ESP, hence when an update is supposedly not
necessary, then don't do it. Only update if it really makes sense, to
minimize writes to the ESP. Updating the boot loader is a good thing
after all, but doing so redundantly is not.
Also, downgrade the message about this to LOG_NOTICE, given this
shouldn't be a reason to log.
Finally, exit cleanly in this cases (or if another boot loader is
detected)
let's share some code between import_url_last_component() and
import_url_change_last_component(), and make sure we never eat up the
hostname component of the URL when parsing out the last component.
Let's also make import_url_change_last_component() more generic so that
we can also use it for append components to paths, instead of replacing
suffixes.
This one is useful for a outputs with a slightly more "positive"
outlook, i.e. where only the checkmarks are shown but the crossmarks are
replaced by spaces.
(Usecase: a larger table with many checkmarks, where the red crossmarks
might just be too much negative noise)
Now that CONST_MAX() is a bit more foregiving, let's stick to the native
return type of sizeof() everywhere, which is size_t, instead of casting
to "unsigned", so that on the common archs we don't unnecessarily lose
the upper 32bits.
This semi-reverts d3e4029457.
This checked for strict type compatibility so far, which mean CONST_MAX()
couldn't be used on two differently signed integers, even though
conceptually there's nothing wrong with allowing that here, as C
correctly picks the larger type in the ternary op.
hence, let's explicitly whitelist integer comparisons here, as long as
the signedness matches.
DISKSEQ is a reliable way to find out if we missed a uevent or not, as
it's monotonically increasing. If we parse an event with a smaller or
no sequence number, we know we need to wait longer. If we parse an
event with a greater sequence number, we know we missed it and the
device was reused.
When loop devices are re-used, the disk sequence number is increased.
Parse it when creating a loop device and store it.
The kernel will never return DISKSEQ=0, so use it to signal that it's
not supported by the current kernel.
DISKSEQ is a monotonic per-use unique sequence number, incremented
on each block device create/attach. For example, the same loop device
will have different diskseq each time an object is attached to it.
Add sd/udev helpers to parse/expose it.
Before this patch, there was no way to request all running user instances for
reexecuting. However this can be useful especially during package updates
otherwise user instances are never updated and keep running a potentially very
old version of the binaries.
Now assuming that we have enough priviledge, it's possible to request
reexecution of all user instances:
systemctl kill --signal=SIGRTMIN+25 "user@*.service"
Note that this request is obviously asynchronous as it relies on a
signal. Keeping "systemctl kill" as the only interface should be good enough to
make this obvious and that's the reason why another interface, such as
"systemctl --global daemon-reexec" has not been considered.
PID1 already uses SIGTERM for reexecuting hence sending it SIGRTMIN+25 is a
nop.
The text used "unit's view" to mean mount namespace. But we talk about
mount namespaces in the later part of the paragraph anyway, so trying to
use an "approachable term" only makes the whole thing harder to understand.
Let's use the precise term.
Some paragraph-breaking and re-indentation is done too.
The output is similar to our hand-crafted status message, but it's nice to use
the built-in functionality. After all, it was amended during development to
support our use case.
This undoes part of 4c890ad3cc: the
implementations of update-dbus-docs and update-man-rules are moved back to
man/meson.build, and alias_target() is used to keep the visible target names
unchanged.
The rules for man pages are reworked so that it's possible to invoke the
targets even if xstlproc is not available. After all, xsltproc is only needed
for the final formatted output, and not other processing.
As documented in /meson.build where the variable is defined,
meson.build_root() doesn't work as expected with project nesting. I have
no idea why anyone would want to embed systemd in another meson project,
but let's use the variable if we have it.

In general, we shouldn't blanket move syscalls like this into @default,
given that glibc actually does have fallbacks, afaics. However, as
long as the syscalls are "read-only" and thus benign, I figure it's a
safe thing to do. But we should probably stick to a "if in doubt, don't"
rule, and put these syscalls in @system-service as default, but not into
@default.
I think in the real world @system-service is the sensible group people
should use, and not @default actually.
