This fixes a regression introduced in e1636807 that removed setting this
value as it seemingly was not used by the kernel and would actively
break above 4G boots. But old kernels (4.18 in particular) will not boot
properly if it is not filled out by us.
The original issue was using the truncated value to then jump into the
kernel entry point, which we do not do anymore. So setting this value
again on newer kernels is fine.
The function for handling regular mounts based on DissectedPartition
objects is called add_partition_mount(), so let's follow this scheme for
all other functions that handle them, too. This nicely separates out the
low-level functions (which get split up args) from the high-level
functions (which get a DissectedPartition object): the latter are called
add_partition_xyz() the former just add_xyz().
This makes naming a bit more systematic. No change in behaviour.
Try harder to inherit the sequence number and ID from the old journal
file before rotating it away.
This helps the libsystemd journal file selection code make better decisions
even in the face of massive incorrect forward clock jumps prior to an
unclean shutdown.
We want to test four things:
- that the transient units are successfully started when drop-ins exist
- that the transient setings override the defaults
- the drop-ins override the transient settings (the same as for a normal unit)
- that things are the same before and after a reload
To make things more fun, we start and stop units in two different ways: via
systemctl and via a direct busctl invocation. This gives us a bit more coverage
of different code paths.
Slices are worth testing too, because they don't need a fragment path so they
behave slightly differently than service units. I'm making this a separate
patch from the actual tests that I wanted to add later because it's complex
enough on its own.
clear_services() is renamed to clear_units() and now takes a full
unit name including the suffix as an argument.
_clear_service() is renamed to clear_unit() and changed likewise.
create_service() didn't have the same underscore prefix, and I don't think
it's useful or needed for a local function, so it is removed.
No functional change.
In https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/16107, starting of a transient
slice unit fails because there's a "global" drop-in
/usr/lib/systemd/user/slice.d/10-oomd-per-slice-defaults.conf (provided by
systemd-oomd-defaults package to install some default oomd policy). This means
that the unit_is_pristine() check fails and starting of the unit is forbidden.
It seems pretty clear to me that dropins at any other level then the unit
should be ignored in this check: we now have multiple layers of drop-ins
(for each level of the cgroup path, and also "global" ones for a specific
unit type). If we install a "global" drop-in, we wouldn't be able to start
any transient units of that type, which seems undesired.
In principle we could reject dropins at the unit level, but I don't think that
is useful. The whole reason for drop-ins is that they are "add ons", and there
isn't any particular reason to disallow them for transient units. It would also
make things harder to implement and describe: one place for drop-ins is good,
but another is bad. (And as a corner case: for instanciated units, a drop-in
in the template would be acceptable, but a instance-specific drop-in bad?)
Thus, $subject.
While at it, adjust the message. All the conditions in unit_is_pristine()
essentially mean that it wasn't loaded (e.g. it might be in an error state),
and that it doesn't have a fragment path (now that drop-ins are acceptable).
If there's a job for it, it necessarilly must have been loaded. If it is
merged into another unit, it also was loaded and found to be an alias.
Based on the discussion in the bugs, it seems that the current message
is far from obvious ;)

We list plenty of arch-specific syscalls in our filter groups, treat the
s390 syscalls the same.
We handle gracefully anyway if some syscall doesn't exist locally on the
kernel or arch, let's rely on it. This has the benefit that
"systemd-analyze" will comprehensively tell you the syscalls filtered on
any arch for any arch.
And less conditionalization is good anyway.
Note --private-key and --certificate options for configuring
verity signature partitions in the listing of options.
Adjust one error message referring to the --certificate option.

Summary of the comment: Unprivileged users can potentially cause a denial of
service during systemd-oomd unit subscriptions by spamming requests to
SubscribeManagedOOMCGroups. As systemd-oomd.service is the only unit that
should be accessing this method, add a check on the caller's unit name to deter
them from successfully using this method.
Using _SOURCE_{MONOTONIC,REALTIME}_TIMESTAMP in place of the results of
sd_journal_get_{monotonic,realtime}_usecs in export formats might cause
internal inconsistency of realtime timestamp values within a journal export,
violating the export file format and causing systemd-journal-remote to
mass-generate journal files.
Fix this by using the real journal timestamps for
__{REALTIME,MONOTONIC}_TIMESTAMP.
Try to separate the description so that changes are described first, and the
discussion follows separately. Remove some repeated verbose descriptions of the
subject: if one sentence describes that UKI contains an signature and describes
it in detail, the next sentence can just say "the signature" without
elaborating. Also, we don't do version-keying yet, so don't say "future"
kernels — older kernels will work too.
If no module name is provided, then try to load modules based on the
device modealias.
Previously, MODALIAS property is passed as an argument, but it may
contain quotation. Hence, unfortunately the modalias may be modified
and cannot load expected modules.
Fixes#24715.
Typically the _MAX and _INVALID special enum values use the full type as
prefix, even if the actual values of the enum might not. Let's follow
this rule here too.
We can just make this an enum, as long as we ensure it has enough range,
which we can do by adding -ERRNO_MAX as one possible value (at least on
GNU C). We already do that at multiple other places, so let's do this
here too.
The uverbs devices are sequentially numbered and are not guarranteed to
stay stable across reboot.
At least one good person was disappointed by this, because they couldn't
find their device: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2036515
Let's add a few helpful links.
'systemctl unmask foo' will try to remove the symlink to /dev/null under /etc/.
But the unit may also be masked by a symlink under /run/generator, in particular
the one created by systemd-debug-generator based on systemd.mask=foo on the
kernel commandline. The unmask call cannot anything about this: even if it removed
the symlink from /run/generator, it'll be recreated on the next daemon-reload.
Thus, we can only warn about it.
Initially, I wanted to check if 'systemctl.mask' is defined on the kernel
command-line, but that's not effective, because such mask symlinks can be
created by other generators based on other conditions. Checking for runtime
mask is "dumber", but is more robust because it doesn't assume who created the
mask and why.
The handling of InstallInfo is the copied from install_info_symlink_wants().
It's pretty ugly, this whole code should be rewritten from scratch.
The message is printed, but the whole operation is still "successful". This
keep backwards compatibility: people might call unmask to remove filesystem
masks even if there's still a cmdline param in place. We allow 'systemctl
mask' to create such a mask, so 'unmask' should be able to remove it.
Fixes#22689.
We had an anonymous enum with values called UNIT_FILE_…, which could easily be
confused with UNIT_FILE_… from UnitFileFlags enum. This commit renames the enum
values and also the variables which refer to them.
