This makes the naming more consistent: we now have
bootctl systemd-efi-options,
$SYSTEMD_EFI_OPTIONS
and the SystemdOptions EFI variable.
(SystemdEFIOptions would be redundant, because it is only used in the context
of efivars, and users don't interact with that name directly.)
bootctl is adjusted to use 2sp indentation, similarly to systemctl and other
programs.
Remove the prefix with the old name from 'bootctl systemd-efi-options' output,
since it's redundant and we don't want the old name anyway.
We would only write to the field, and take the address. All *readers* were
removed in 2841493927. (The explanation for why
the field wasn't removed back then is that the patch underwent a few iterations,
with the initial version adding translation back and forth. Later versions of
the patch simply emit a warning and ignore the old value. Apparently nobody
noticed that the value became unused.)
TasksMax= and DefaultTasksMax= can be specified as percentages. We don't
actually document of what the percentage is relative to, but the implementation
uses the smallest of /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max, /proc/sys/kernel/threads-max,
and /sys/fs/cgroup/pids.max (when present). When the value is a percentage,
we immediately convert it to an absolute value. If the limit later changes
(which can happen e.g. when systemd-sysctl runs), the absolute value becomes
outdated.
So let's store either the percentage or absolute value, whatever was specified,
and only convert to an absolute value when the value is used. For example, when
starting a unit, the absolute value will be calculated when the cgroup for
the unit is created.
Fixes#13419.
This partially reverts db11487d10 (the logic to
calculate the correct value is removed, we always use the same setting as for
the system manager). Distributions have an easy mechanism to override this if
they wish.
I think making this configurable is better, because different distros clearly
want different defaults here, and making this configurable is nice and clean.
If we don't make it configurable, distros which either have to carry patches,
or what would be worse, rely on some other configuration mechanism, like
/etc/profile. Those other solutions do not apply everywhere (they usually
require the shell to be used at some point), so it is better if we provide
a nice way to override the default.
Fixes #13469.
We already handle it specially in get_timezones(), hence we should OK it
here too, even if the timezone file doesn't actually exist.
Prompted by:
https://serverfault.com/questions/991172/invalid-time-zone-utc
(Yes, Ubuntu should install the UTC timezone data unconditionally: it
should not be an option, even if all other timezone data is excluded,
but since it's our business to validate user input but not out business
to validate distros, let's just accept "UTC" unconditionally, it's magic
after all)
f5947a5e92 dropped missing.h and
replaced with the more specific headers but did not add
missing_fcntl.h in places that use O_TMPFILE. This is needed for
some older versions of glibc.
Discussed in #13743, the -.service semantic conflicts with the
existing root mount and slice names, making this feature not
uniformly extensible to all types. Change the name to be
<type>.d instead.
Updating to this format also extends the top-level dropin to
unit types.
