units: make ExecStopPost action part of ExecStart
Currently after exiting rescue shell we isolate default target. User
might want to isolate to some other target than default one. However
issuing systemctl isolate command to desired target would bring system
to default target as a consequence of running ExecStopPost action.
Having common ancestor for rescue shell and possible followup systemctl
default command should fix this. If user exits rescue shell we will
proceed with isolating default target, otherwise, on manual isolate,
parent shell process is terminated and we don't isolate default target,
but target chosen by user.

The new lzma2 compression options at the top of compress_blob_xz are
equivalent to using preset "0", exept for using a 1 MiB dictionary
(the same as preset "1"). This makes the memory usage at most 7.5 MiB
in the compressor, and 1 MiB in the decompressor, instead of the
previous 92 MiB in the compressor and 8 MiB in the decompressor.
According to test-compress-benchmark this commit makes XZ compression
20 times faster, with no increase in compressed data size.
Using more realistic test data (an ELF binary rather than repeating
ASCII letters 'a' through 'z' in order) it only provides a factor 10
speedup, and at a cost if a 10% increase in compressed data size.
But that is still a worthwhile trade-off.
According to test-compress-benchmark XZ compression is still 25 times
slower than LZ4, but the compressed data is one eighth the size.
Using more realistic test data XZ compression is only 18 times slower
than LZ4, and the compressed data is only one quarter the size.

escape: move to rootbindir
The systemd-escape utility might be used during early boot (e.g. when
being triggered from udev rules), so move it to rootbindir to support
systems with a split /usr setup.
accelerometer: Don't wait for new data from the sensor
Instead of waiting for new data from the sensor, which might be
a long time coming, depending on the sensor device, ask the kernel
for the last state for that particular input device.

logind: allow switching to unused VTs via SwitchTo()
If compositors use the new SwitchTo() logic to map F1-F12, we should allow
them to switch to unregistered VTs, too. Otherwise, the auto-spawn logic
of gettys won't trigger.

In generated html, add external links to
http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man, http://linux.die.net/man/,
https://www.archlinux.org/.
By default, pages in sections 2 and 4 go to man7, since Michael
Kerrisk is the autorative source on kernel related stuff.
The rest of links goes to linux.die.net, because they have the
manpages.
Except for the pacman stuff, since it seems to be only available from
archlinux.org.
Poor gummiboot gets no link, because gummitboot(8) ain't to be found
on the net. According to common wisdom, that would mean that it does
not exist. But I have seen Kay using it, so I know it does, and
deserves to be found. Can somebody be nice and put it up somewhere?
This patch adds supports networkd to configure bond mode
during creation via persistent conf. Mode can be configured
with conf param 'Mode'. A new section Bond is added to the
conf to support bond mode.
firstboot: get rid of firstboot generator again, introduce ConditionFirstBoot= instead
As Zbigniew pointed out a new ConditionFirstBoot= appears like the nicer
way to hook in systemd-firstboot.service on first boots (those with /etc
unpopulated), so let's do this, and get rid of the generator again.
core: Added support for ERRNO NOTIFY_SOCKET message parsing, and added StatusErrno dbus property along StatusText to allow notification of numeric status condition while degraded service operation or any other special situation.

dhcp-network: ignore IP packets with More Fragments (MF) flag set
We already ignore IP fragments, because we expect that Fragment
offset (FO) field is not set. However first fragment in a fragmented IP
flow will have all zeroes in FO field. We should ignore such packet as
well, thus we need to look at MF flag in the IP header. Checking MF flag
will filter out all except last packet in fragmented flows. Last one
will be ruled out by next check for value of FO.
firstboot: add new component to query basic system settings on first boot, or when creating OS images offline
A new tool "systemd-firstboot" can be used either interactively on boot,
where it will query basic locale, timezone, hostname, root password
information and set it. Or it can be used non-interactively from the
command line when prepareing disk images for booting. When used
non-inertactively the tool can either copy settings from the host, or
take settings on the command line.

This is useful to test the behaviour of the compressor for various buffer
sizes.
Time is limited to a minute per compression, since otherwise, when LZ4
takes more than a second which is necessary to reduce the noise, XZ
takes more than 10 minutes.

It appears that there's a bug in lzma_end where it leaks 32 bytes.
Add liblz4 as an optional dependency when requested with --enable-lz4,
and use it in preference to liblzma for journal blob and coredump
compression. To retain backwards compatibility, XZ is used to
decompress old blobs.
Things will function correctly only with lz4-119.
Based on the benchmarks found on the web, lz4 seems to be the best
choice for "quick" compressors atm.

nspawn: add new --volatile switch for booting containers in volatile (ephemeral) mode
Two modes are supported: --volatile=yes mounts only /usr into the
container, and a tmpfs as root directory. --volatile=state mounts the
full OS tree in, but overmounts /var with a tmpfs.
--volatile=yes hence boots with an unpopulated /etc and /var, starting
with pristine configuration and state.
--volatile=state hence boots with an unpopulated /var, only starting
with pristine state.
main: change check whether /etc is unpopulated to look for /etc/machine-id
Previously, we checked whether /etc was completely empty. This makes it
difficult though for container managers such as nspawn to install a
small number of files (such as /etc/timezone), and have the system
otherwise populate its own tree.
Hence, change this by looking for /etc/machine-id, which should be a
good sign whether /etc is populated or not.
units: conditionalize configfs and debugfs with CAP_SYS_RAWIO
We really don't want these in containers as they provide a too lowlevel
look on the system.
Conditionalize them with CAP_SYS_RAWIO since that's required to access
/proc/kcore, /dev/kmem and similar, which feel similar in style. Also,
npsawn containers lack that capability.
units: conditionalize static device node logic on CAP_SYS_MODULES instead of CAP_MKNOD
npsawn containers generally have CAP_MKNOD, since this is required
to make PrviateDevices= work. Thus, it's not useful anymore to
conditionalize the kmod static device node units.
Use CAP_SYS_MODULES instead which is not available for nspawn
containers. However, the static device node logic is only done for being
able to autoload modules with it, and if we can't do that there's no
point in doing it.

networkd: properly track addresses when first added
When doing a NEWADDR, the reply we get back is the NEWADDR itself, rather
than just an empty ack (unlike how NEWLINK works). For this reason, the
process that did the NEWADDR does not get the broadcast message.
We were only listening for broadcast messages, and hence not tracking the
addresses we added ourselves. This went unnoticed as the kernel will usually
send NEWADDR messages from time to time anyway, so things would mostly work,
but in the worst case we would not notice that a routable address was available
and consider ourselves offline.
