Implement a maximum limit on number of journal files to keep around.
Enforcing a limit is useful on this since our performance when viewing
pays a heavy penalty for each journal file to interleve. This setting is
turned on now by default, and set to 100.
Also, actully implement what 348ced909724a1331b85d57aede80a102a00e428
promised: use whatever we find on disk at startup as lower bound on how
much disk space we can use. That commit introduced some provisions to
implement this, but actually never did.
This also adds "journalctl --vacuum-files=" to vacuum files on disk by
their number explicitly.
journal: don't affect atime of journal files when vacuuming
Let's try to use O_NOATIME if we can when vacuuming old journal files,
if we have the permissions for it, so that vacuuming doesn't count as
proper journal read access.
With this rework we introduce systemd-rfkill.service as singleton that
is activated via systemd-rfkill.socket that listens on /dev/rfkill. That
way, we get notified each time a new rfkill device shows up or changes
state, in which case we restore and save its current setting to disk.
This is nicer than the previous logic, as this means we save/restore
state even of rfkill devices that are around only intermittently, and
save/restore the state even if the system is shutdown abruptly instead
of cleanly.
This implements what I suggested in #1019 and obsoletes it.
core: add new setting Writable= to ListenSpecial= socket units
Writable= is a new boolean setting. If ture, then ListenSpecial= will
open the specified path in O_RDWR mode, rather than just O_RDONLY.
This is useful for implementing services like rfkill, where /dev/rfkill
is more useful when opened in write mode, if we want to not only save
but also restore its state.
- Rely everywhere that we use abs() on the error code passed in anyway,
thus don't need to explicitly negate what we pass in
- Never attach synthetic error number information to log messages. Only
log about errors we *receive* with the error number we got there,
don't log any synthetic error, that don#t even propagate, but just eat
up.
- Be more careful with attaching exactly the error we get, instead of
errno or unrelated errors randomly.
- Fix one occasion where the error number and line number got swapped.
- Make sure we never tape over OOM issues, or inability to resolve
specifiers
mq_getattr returns -1/EBADF for file descriptors which are not mq.
But we should return 0 in this case.
We first check that fd is a valid fd, so we can assume that if
mq_getattr returns EBADF, it is simply a non-mq fd. There is a slight
race, but there doesn't seem to be a nice way to fix it.
exit.target is now used for both system and user sessions,
so remove "on user service manager exit". Also reword that
paragraph: services will be killed before the manager exits,
even if they do not conflict with shutdown target, but we
recommend that they conflict with shutdown target so that
systemd schedules them to be stopped immediately when starting
to exit.
In the first paragraph, containers should be mentioned last,
and the more general systems first.
nspawn: mount /sys as tmpfs, and then mount only select subdirs of the real sysfs below it
This way we can hide things like /sys/firmware or /sys/hypervisor from
the container, while keeping the device tree around.
While this is a security benefit in itself it also allows us to fix
issue #1277.
Previously we'd mount /sys before creating the user namespace, in order
to be able to mount /sys/fs/cgroup/* beneath it (which resides in it),
which we can only mount outside of the user namespace. To ensure that
the user namespace owns the network namespace we'd set up the network
namespace at the same time as the user namespace. Thus, we'd still see
the /sys/class/net/ from the originating network namespace, even though
we are in our own network namespace now. With this patch, /sys is
mounted before transitioning into the user namespace as tmpfs, so that
we can also mount /sys/fs/cgroup/* into it this early. The directories
such as /sys/class/ are then later added in from the real sysfs from
inside the network and user namespace so that they actually show whatis
available in it.

fileio: make get_status_field() more generic
All users of get_status_field() expect the field pattern to occur in
the beginning of a line, and the delimiter is ':'.
Hardcode this into the function, and also skip any whitespace before ':'
to support fields in files like /proc/cpuinfo. Add support for returning
the full field value (currently stops on first whitespace).
Rename the function so it's easier to ensure all callers switch to new
semantics.
Sometimes we have to connect to the system manager directly (early boot,
initrd, late boot, ...), sometimes through the system bus (unprivileged,
remote, logind, ...). Instead of guessing in advance, which kind of
connection we require (and sometimes guessing incorrectly), let's make
sure each time we need bus connection we request the right bus
explicitly.
This way, we set up exactly the bus connections require, never guess
incorrectly, and do so only immediately when necessary.
As effect this reworks avoid_bus() into install_client_side(), since
that's all it determines now: whether to install unit files client-side
or server-side (i.e. in PID 1).
core: add a "Requires=" dependency between units and the slices they are located in
We place the processes we fork off in the cgroup anyway, and we probably
shouldn't be able to get that far if we couldn't set up the slice due to
resource problems or unmet conditions. Hence upgrade the dependency
between units and the slices they are located in from Wants= to
Requires=.
bus-util: rename bus_open_transport() to bus_connect_transport()
In sd-bus, the sd_bus_open_xyz() family of calls allocates a new bus,
while sd_bus_default_xyz() family tries to reuse the thread's default
bus. bus_open_transport() sometimes internally uses the former,
sometimes the latter family, but suggests it only calls the former via
its name. Hence, let's avoid this confusion, and generically rename the
call to bus_connect_transport().
Similar for all related calls.
And while we are at it, also change cgls + cgtop to do direct systemd
connections where possible, since all they do is talk to systemd itself.
