When we are attempting to create directory somewhere in the bowels of /var/lib
and get an error that it already exists, it can be quite hard to diagnose what
is wrong (especially for a user who is not aware that the directory must have
the specified owner, and permissions not looser than what was requested). Let's
print a warning in most cases. A warning is appropriate, because such state is
usually a sign of borked installation and needs to be resolved by the adminstrator.
$ build/test-fs-util
Path "/tmp/test-readlink_and_make_absolute" already exists and is not a directory, refusing.
(or)
Directory "/tmp/test-readlink_and_make_absolute" already exists, but has mode 0775 that is too permissive (0755 was requested), refusing.
(or)
Directory "/tmp/test-readlink_and_make_absolute" already exists, but is owned by 1001:1000 (1000:1000 was requested), refusing.
Assertion 'mkdir_safe(tempdir, 0755, getuid(), getgid(), MKDIR_WARN_MODE) >= 0' failed at ../src/test/test-fs-util.c:320, function test_readlink_and_make_absolute(). Aborting.
No functional change except for the new log lines.
This is similar to TAKE_PTR() but operates on file descriptors, and thus
assigns -1 to the fd parameter after returning it.
Removes 60 lines from our codebase. Pretty good too I think.
This macro will read a pointer of any type, return it, and set the
pointer to NULL. This is useful as an explicit concept of passing
ownership of a memory area between pointers.
This takes inspiration from Rust:
https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/option/enum.Option.html#method.take
and was suggested by Alan Jenkins (@sourcejedi).
It drops ~160 lines of code from our codebase, which makes me like it.
Also, I think it clarifies passing of ownership, and thus helps
readability a bit (at least for the initiated who know the new macro)
This rearranges chase_symlinks() a bit: if no special flags are
specified it will now revert to behaviour before
b12d25a8d6. However, if the new
CHASE_TRAIL_SLASH flag is specified it will follow the behaviour
introduced by that commit.
I wasn't sure which one to make the beaviour that requires specification
of a flag to enable. I opted to make the "append trailing slash"
behaviour the one to enable by a flag, following the thinking that the
function should primarily be used to generate a normalized path, and I
am pretty sure a path without trailing slash is the more "normalized"
one, as the trailing slash is not really a part of it, but merely a
"decorator" that tells various system calls to generate ENOTDIR if the
path doesn't refer to a path.
Or to say this differently: if the slash was part of normalization then
we really should add it in all cases when the final path is a directory,
not just when the user originally specified it.

safe_atou16_full() is like safe_atou16() but also takes a base
parameter. safe_atou16() is then implemented as inline function on top
of it, passing 0 as base. Similar safe_atoux16() is reworked as inline
function too, with 16 as base.
The warning is not emitted for absolute paths like /dev/sda or /home, which are
converted to .device and .mount unit names without any fuss.
Most of the time it's unlikely that users use invalid unit names on purpose,
so let's warn them. Warnings are silenced when --quiet is used.
$ build/systemctl show -p Id hello@foo-bar/baz
Invalid unit name "hello@foo-bar/baz" was escaped as "hello@foo-bar-baz" (maybe you should use systemd-escape?)
Id=hello@foo-bar-baz.service
$ build/systemd-run --user --slice foo-bar/baz --unit foo-bar/foo true
Invalid unit name "foo-bar/foo" was escaped as "foo-bar-foo" (maybe you should use systemd-escape?)
Invalid unit name "foo-bar/baz" was escaped as "foo-bar-baz" (maybe you should use systemd-escape?)
Running as unit: foo-bar-foo.service
Fixes#8302.
The orignal reproducer from oss-fuzz depends on the hostname (via %H and %c).
The hostname needs a dash for msan to report this, so a simpler case from
@evverx with the dash hardcoded is also added.
The issue is a false positive from msan, which does not instruct stpncpy
(https://github.com/google/sanitizers/issues/926). Let's add a work-around
until this is fixed.
We have only three bits of space, i.e. 8 possible classes. Immediately reject
anything outside of that range. Add the fuzzer test case and an additional
unit test.
oss-fuzz #6908.
We probably should allow very deep calls of our recursive functions. Let's add
a limit to avoid resource exhaustion. 240 is 10 per hour (if somebody is using
this for time based triggers...), so it should be more than enough for most use
cases, and is conveniently below the 250 stack limit in msan.
oss-fuzz #6917.
"noreturn" is reserved and can be used in other header files we include:
[ 16s] In file included from /usr/include/gcrypt.h:30:0,
[ 16s] from ../src/journal/journal-file.h:26,
[ 16s] from ../src/journal/journal-vacuum.c:31:
[ 16s] /usr/include/gpg-error.h:1544:46: error: expected ‘,’ or ‘;’ before ‘)’ token
[ 16s] void gpgrt_log_bug (const char *fmt, ...) GPGRT_ATTR_NR_PRINTF(1,2);
Here we include grcrypt.h (which in turns include gpg-error.h) *after* we
"noreturn" was defined in macro.h.
gmtime_r() will return NULL in that case, and we would crash.
I committed the reproducer case in fuzz-regressions/, even though we don't have
ubsan hooked up yet. Let's add it anyway in case it is useful in the future. We
actually crash anyway when compiled with asserts, so this can be easily
reproduced without ubsan.
oss-fuzz #6886.
Suspend to Hibernate is a new sleep method that invokes suspend
for a predefined period of time before automatically waking up
and hibernating the system.
It's similar to HybridSleep however there isn't a performance
impact on every suspend cycle.
It's intended to use with systems that may have a higher power
drain in their supported suspend states to prevent battery and
data loss over an extended suspend cycle.

ISO C does not allow empty statements outside of functions, and gcc
will warn the trailing semicolons when compiling with -pedantic:
warning: ISO C does not allow extra ‘;’ outside of a function [-Wpedantic]
But our code cannot compile with -pedantic anyway, at least because
warning: ISO C does not support ‘__PRETTY_FUNCTION__’ predefined identifier [-Wpedantic]
Without -pedatnic, clang and even old gcc (3.4) generate no warnings about
those semicolons, so let's just drop __useless_struct_to_allow_trailing_semicolon__.
Quite often we need to set up a number of fds as stdin/stdout/stderr of
a process we are about to start. Add a generic implementation for a
routine doing that that takes care to do so properly:
1. Can handle the case where stdin/stdout/stderr where previously
closed, and the fds to set as stdin/stdout/stderr hence likely in the
0..2 range. handling this properly is nasty, since we need to first
move the fds out of this range in order to later move them back in, to
make things fully robust.
2. Can optionally open /dev/null in case for one or more of the fds, in
a smart way, sharing the open file if possible between multiple of
the fds.
3. Guarantees that O_CLOEXEC is not set on the three fds, even if the fds
already were in the 0..2 range and hence possibly weren't moved.
At various places we only want to close fds if they are not
stdin/stdout/stderr, i.e. fds 0, 1, 2. Let's add a unified helper call
for that, and port everything over.
I figure sooneror later we'll have more of these docs, hence let's give
them a clean place to be.
This leaves NEWS and README/README.md as well as the LICENSE texts in
the root directory of the project since that appears to be customary for
Free Software projects.
