300 <title>Methods</title>
301
302 <para><function>GetMachine()</function> may be used to get the machine object path for the machine with
303 the specified name. Similarly, <function>GetMachineByPID()</function> gets the machine object the
304 specified PID belongs to if there is any.</para>
305
306 <para><function>GetImage()</function> may be used to get the image object path of the image with the
307 specified name.</para>
308
309 <para><function>ListMachines()</function> returns an array of all currently registered machines. The
310 structures in the array consist of the following fields: machine name, machine class, an identifier for
311 the service that registered the machine and the machine object path.</para>
312
313 <para><function>ListImages()</function> returns an array of all currently known images. The
314 structures in the array consist of the following fields: image name, type, read-only flag, creation
315 time, modification time, current disk space, and image object path.</para>
316
317 <para><function>CreateMachine()</function> may be used to register a new virtual machine or container
318 with <command>systemd-machined</command>, creating a scope unit for it. It accepts the following arguments: a
319 machine name chosen by the registrar, an optional UUID as a 32 byte array, a string that identifies the
320 service that registers the machine, a class string, the PID of the leader process of the machine, an
321 optional root directory of the container, and an array of additional properties to use for the scope
322 registration. The virtual machine name must be suitable as a hostname, and hence should follow the usual
323 DNS hostname rules, as well as the Linux hostname restrictions. Specifically, only 7 bit ASCII is
324 permitted, a maximum length of 64 characters is enforced, only characters from the set
325 <literal>a-zA-Z0-9-_.</literal> are allowed, the name may not begin with a dot, and it may not contain
326 two dots immediately following each other. Container and VM managers should ideally use the hostname
327 used internally in the machine for this parameter. This recommendation is made in order to make the
328 machine name naturally resolvable using
329 <citerefentry><refentrytitle>nss-mymachines</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>. If
330 a container manager needs to embed characters outside of the indicated range, escaping is required,
331 possibly using <literal>_</literal> as the escape character. Another (somewhat natural) option would be
332 to utilize Internet IDNA encoding. The UUID is passed as a 32 byte array or, if no suitable UUID is
333 available, an empty array (zero length) or zeroed out array shall be passed. The UUID should identify
334 the virtual machine/container uniquely and should ideally be the same UUID that
335 <filename>/etc/machine-id</filename> in the VM/container is initialized from. The service string can be
336 free-form, but it is recommended to pass a short lowercase identifier like
337 <literal>systemd-nspawn</literal>, <literal>libvirt-lxc</literal> or similar. The class string should
338 be either <literal>container</literal> or <literal>vm</literal> indicating whether the machine to
339 register is of the respective class. The leader PID should be the host PID of the init process of the
340 container or the encapsulating process of the VM. If the root directory of the container is known and
341 available in the host's hierarchy, it should be passed. Otherwise, pass the empty string instead. Finally, the
342 scope properties are passed as array in the same way as to PID1's
343 <function>StartTransientUnit()</function> method. Calling this method will internally register a transient scope
344 unit for the calling client (utilizing the passed scope_properties) and move the leader PID into
345 it. The method returns an object path for the registered machine object that implements the
346 <interfacename>org.freedesktop.machine1.Machine</interfacename> interface (see below). Also see the
347 <ulink url="https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/ControlGroupInterface">New Control Group
348 Interfaces</ulink> for details about scope units and how to alter resource control settings on the
349 created machine at runtime.</para>
350
351 <para><function>RegisterMachine()</function> is similar to <function>CreateMachine()</function>.
352 However, it only registers a machine and does not create a scope unit for it. Instead, the caller's unit is
353 registered. We recommend to only use this method for container or VM managers that are run
354 multiple times, one instance for each container/VM they manage, and are invoked as system
355 services.</para>
356
357 <para><function>CreateMachineWithNetwork()</function> and
358 <function>RegisterMachineWithNetwork()</function> are similar to <function>CreateMachine()</function>
359 and <function>RegisterMachine()</function> but take an extra argument: an array of network interface
360 indices that point towards the virtual machine or container. The interface indices should reference one
361 or more network interfaces on the host that can be used to communicate with the guest. Commonly, the
362 passed interface index refers to the host side of a "veth" link (in case of containers), a
363 "tun"/"tap" link (in case of VMs), or the host side of a bridge interface that bridges access to the
364 VM/container interfaces. Specifying this information is useful to enable support for link-local IPv6
365 communication to the machines since the scope field of sockaddr_in6 can be initialized by the
366 specified ifindex.
367 <citerefentry><refentrytitle>nss-mymachines</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>
368 makes use of this information.</para>
369
370 <para><function>KillMachine()</function> sends a UNIX signal to the machine's processes. As its arguments, it takes a
371 machine name (as originally passed to <function>CreateMachine()</function> or returned by
372 <function>ListMachines()</function>), an identifier that specifies what precisely to send the signal to (either
373 <literal>leader</literal> or <literal>all</literal>), and a numeric UNIX signal integer.</para>
374
375 <para><function>TerminateMachine()</function> terminates a virtual machine, killing its processes. It
376 takes a machine name as its only argument.</para>
377
378 <para><function>GetMachineAddresses()</function> retrieves the IP addresses of a container. This method
379 returns an array of pairs consisting of an address family specifier (<constant>AF_INET</constant> or
380 <constant>AF_INET6</constant>) and a byte array containing the addresses. This is only supported for
381 containers that make use of network namespacing.</para>
382
383 <para><function>GetMachineOSRelease()</function> retrieves the OS release information of a
384 container. This method returns an array of key value pairs read from the
385 <citerefentry><refentrytitle>os-release</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry> file in
386 the container and is useful to identify the operating system used in a container.</para>
387
388 <para><function>OpenMachinePTY()</function> allocates a pseudo TTY in the container and returns a file
389 descriptor and its path. This is equivalent to transitioning into the container and invoking
390 <citerefentry project="man-pages"><refentrytitle>posix_openpt</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
391 </para>
392
393 <para><function>OpenMachineLogin()</function> allocates a pseudo TTY in the container and ensures that
394 a getty login prompt of the container is running on the other end. It returns the file descriptor of
395 the PTY and the PTY path. This is useful for acquiring a pty with a login prompt from the
396 container.</para>
397
398 <para><function>OpenMachineShell()</function> allocates a pseudo TTY in the container, as the specified
399 user, and invokes the executable at the specified path with a list of arguments (starting from
400 argv[0]) and an environment block. It then returns the file descriptor of the PTY and the PTY
401 path.</para>
402
403 <para><function>BindMountMachine()</function> bind mounts a file or directory from the host into the
404 container. Its arguments consist of a machine name, the source directory on the host, the destination directory in the
405 container, and two booleans, one indicating whether the bind mount shall be
406 read-only, the other indicating whether the destination mount point shall be created first, if it is
407 missing.</para>
408
409 <para><function>CopyFromMachine()</function> copies files or directories from a container into the
410 host. It takes a container name, a source directory in the container and a destination directory on the
411 host as arguments.
412 <function>CopyToMachine()</function> does the opposite and copies files from a source
413 directory on the host into a destination directory in the container.
414 <function>CopyFromMachineWithFlags()</function> and <function>CopyToMachineWithFlags</function> do the same but take an additional flags argument.</para>
415
416 <para><function>RemoveImage()</function> removes the image with the specified name.</para>
417
418 <para><function>RenameImage()</function> renames the specified image.</para>
419
420 <para><function>CloneImage()</function> clones the specified image under a new name. It also takes a
421 boolean argument indicating whether the resulting image shall be read-only or not.</para>
422
423 <para><function>MarkImageReadOnly()</function> toggles the read-only flag of an image.</para>
424
425 <para><function>SetPoolLimit()</function> sets an overall quota limit on the pool of images.</para>
426
427 <para><function>SetImageLimit()</function> sets a per-image quota limit.</para>
428
429 <para><function>MapFromMachineUser()</function>, <function>MapToMachineUser()</function>,
430 <function>MapFromMachineGroup()</function>, and <function>MapToMachineGroup()</function> may be used to map
431 UIDs/GIDs from the host user namespace to a container user namespace or vice versa.</para>

435 <title>Signals</title>
436
437 <para><function>MachineNew</function> and <function>MachineRemoved</function> are sent whenever a new

601
602 <para><function>Terminate()</function> and <function>Kill()</function> terminate/kill the machine. These methods
603 take the same arguments as <function>TerminateMachine()</function> and
604 <function>KillMachine()</function> on the Manager interface, respectively.</para>
605
606 <para><function>GetAddresses()</function> and <function>GetOSRelease()</function> get the IP address and OS
607 release information from the machine. These methods take the same arguments as
608 <function>GetMachineAddresses()</function> and <function>GetMachineOSRelease()</function> of the
609 Manager interface, respectively.</para>

613 <title>Properties</title>
614
615 <para><varname>Name</varname> is the machine name as it was passed in during registration with
616 <function>CreateMachine()</function> on the manager object.</para>
617
618 <para><varname>Id</varname> is the machine UUID.</para>
619
620 <para><varname>Timestamp</varname> and <varname>TimestampMonotonic</varname> are the realtime and
621 monotonic timestamps when the virtual machines where created in microseconds since the epoch.</para>
622
623 <para><varname>Service</varname> contains a short string identifying the registering service as passed
624 in during registration of the machine.</para>
625
626 <para><varname>Unit</varname> is the systemd scope or service unit name for the machine.</para>
627
628 <para><varname>Leader</varname> is the PID of the leader process of the machine.</para>
629
630 <para><varname>Class</varname> is the class of the machine and is either the string "vm" (for real VMs
631 based on virtualized hardware) or "container" (for light-weight userspace virtualization sharing the
632 same kernel as the host).</para>
633
634 <para><varname>RootDirectory</varname> is the root directory of the container if it is known and
635 applicable or the empty string.</para>
636
637 <para><varname>NetworkInterfaces</varname> contains an array of network interface indices that point
638 towards the container, the VM or the host. For details about this information see the description of
639 <function>CreateMachineWithNetwork()</function> above.</para>
640
641 <para><varname>State</varname> is the state of the machine and is one of <literal>opening</literal>,
642 <literal>running</literal>, or <literal>closing</literal>. Note that the state machine is not considered
643 part of the API and states might be removed or added without this being considered API breakage.
