In sd-device, `devpath` is a kind of syspath without '/sys' prefix, e.g.
/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1c.4/0000:3c:00.0/nvme/nvme0/nvme0n1,
and `devname` is a path to the device node, e.g. /dev/nvme0n1.
Let's use the consistent name for the helper function.
condition: change operator logic to use $= instead of =$ for glob comparisons
So this is a bit of a bikeshedding thing. But I think we should do this
nonetheless, before this is released.
Playing around with the glob matches I realized that "=$" is really hard
to grep for, since in shell code it's an often seen construct. Also,
when reading code I often found myself thinking first that the "$"
belongs to the rvalue instead of the operator, in a variable expansion
scheme.
If we move the $ character to the left hand, I think we are on the safer
side, since usually lvalues are much more restricted in character sets
than rvalues (at least most programming languages do enforce limits on
the character set for identifiers).
It makes it much easier to grep for the new operator, and easier to read
too. Example:
None of our other fnmatch() calls make use of this, and the concept was
new to me at least. Given that this is only used for the recently added
SMBIOS field matches (and is not included in any release) let's disable
"extended" matches for now. We can certainly revisit this, and enable it
later if there is real demand, but if we do, we should probably add that
all over the place, not just for smbios matches.
Let's move the operator enum into its own .c/.h file, so that we can
reuse it elsewhere, in particular systemd-analyze's compare-versions
logic.
Let's rename the concept CompareOperator, since it is nowadays
genericlaly about both order *and* fnmatch comparisons, hence just
naming it "order" is misleading.
loop-util: lock the control device around clearing the loopback device and deleting it
This mirrors what we already do during allocation. We lock the control
device first, and then release the block device and then delete it.
This makes things substantially more robust as long all participants do
such locking: we won't attempt to delete a block device somebody else
already is using.
Back when I wrote this code I wasn't aware of BLKPG and what it can do.
Hence I came up with this hack to attach an empty file to delete all
partitions. But today we can do better with BLKPG: let's just explicitly
remove all partitions, and then try again.
loop-util: rework how we lock loopback block devices
Let's rework how we lock loopback block devices in two ways:
1. Lock a separate fd, instead of the main block device fd. We already
did that for our internal locking when allocating loopback block
devices, but do so for the exposed locking (i.e.
loop_device_flock()), too, so that the lock is independent of the
main fd we actually use of IO.
2. Instead of locking the device during allocation of the loopback
device, then unlocking it (which will make udev run), and then
re-locking things if we need, let's instead just keep the lock the
whole time, to make things a bit safer and faster, and not have to
wait for udev at all. This is done by adding a "lock_op" parameter to
loop device allocation functions that declares the initial state of
the lock, and is one of LOCK_UN/LOCK_SH/LOCK_EX. This change also
shortens a lot of code, since we allocate + immediately lock loopback
devices pretty much everywhere.
Now that the loopback device code already destroys the partitions we
don't have to do this here anymore.
I am sure the right place to delete the partitions is in the loopback
code, since we really only should do that for loopback devices, see
bug #24431, and not on "real" block devices.
I am also not convinced dropping partitions the dissection logic doesn't
care about is a good idea, after all. The dissection stuff should
probably not consider itself the "owner" of the block devices it
analyzes, but take a more passive role: figure out what is what, but not
modify it.
loop-util: when clearing a loopback device delete partitions first, and take BSD lock
Whenever we release a loopback device, let's first synchronously delete
all partitions, so that we know that's complete and not done
asynchronously in the background. Take a BSD lock on the device while
doing so, so that udev won't make the devices busy while we do this.

tree-wide: Use "unmet" for condition checks, not "failed"
Often I end up debugging a problem on a system, and I
do e.g. `journalctl --grep=failed|error`. The use of the term
"failed" for condition checks adds a *lot* of unnecessary noise into
this.
Now, I know this regexp search isn't precise, but it has proven
to be useful to me.
I think "failed" is too strong of a term as a baseline, and also
just stands out to e.g. humans watching their servers boot or
whatever.
The term "met condition" is fairly widely used, e.g.

Unfortunately, hex output can only be produced with unsigned types. Some

network: NetLabel integration
New directive `NetLabel=` provides a method for integrating static and dynamic
network configuration into Linux NetLabel subsystem rules, used by Linux
Security Modules (LSMs) for network access control. The label, with suitable
LSM rules, can be used to control connectivity of (for example) a service with
peers in the local network. At least with SELinux, only the ingress can be
controlled but not egress. The benefit of using this setting is that it may be
possible to apply interface independent part of NetLabel configuration at very
early stage of system boot sequence, at the time when the network interfaces
are not available yet, with netlabelctl(8), and the per-interface configuration
with systemd-networkd once the interfaces appear later. Currently this feature
is only implemented for SELinux.
The option expects a single NetLabel label. The label must conform to lexical
restrictions of LSM labels. When an interface is configured with IP addresses,
the addresses and subnetwork masks will be appended to the NetLabel Fallback
Peer Labeling rules. They will be removed when the interface is
deconfigured. Failures to manage the labels will be ignored.
With the above rules for interface `eth0`, when the interface is configured with
an IPv4 address of 10.0.0.123/8, `systemd-networkd` performs the equivalent of
`netlabelctl` operation

scsi_id: retry inquiry ioctl if host_byte is DID_TRANSPORT_DISRUPTED
The inquiry is issued to kernel via ioctl, kernelspace would set
this inquiry command's retry count to 0 which means the command
would not be retried in kernel space even if the LLDs returned
a status which need to be retried. So we should take the retry
in user space.
After `losetup --detach`, the kernel lazily removes the loop device.
But, systemd-dissect should gracefully handle that. If it does not, then
it is a bug in systemd-dissect.
Let's not hide the real issue in systemd-dissect.
