basic/virt: Fix current virtualbox detection
In a current VirtualBox installation the board_vendor is set to "Oracle
Corporation". So we need to add this to the dmi_vendor_table for a
relieable detection.
This fixes #13429
Signed-off-by: Jan Losinski <losinski@wh2.tu-dresden.de>
In the past, we asked people to open a security bug on one of the "big"
distros. This worked OK as far as getting bugs reported and notifying some
upstream developers went. But we always had trouble getting information to
all the appropriate parties, because each time a bug was reported, a big
thread was created, with a growing CC list. People who were not CCed early
enough were missing some information, etc.
To clean this up, we decided to create a private mailing list. The natural
place would be freedesktop.org, but unfortunately the request to create a
mailing list wasn't handled
(https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/freedesktop/freedesktop/issues/134). And even
if it was, at this point, if there was ever another administrative issue, it
seems likely it could take months to resolve. So instead, we asked for a list
to be created on the redhat mailservers.
Please consider the previous security issue reporting mechanisms rescinded, and
send any senstive bugs to systemd-security@redhat.com.

kernel-install: do not require non-empty kernel cmdline
When booting with Fedora-Server-dvd-x86_64-30-20190411.n.0.iso,
/proc/cmdline is empty (libvirt, qemu host with bios, not sure if that
matters), after installation to disk, anaconda would "crash" in kernel-core
%posttrans, after calling kernel-install, because dracut would fail
with
> Could not determine the kernel command line parameters.
> Please specify the kernel command line in /etc/kernel/cmdline!
I guess it's legitimate, even if unusual, to have no cmdline parameters.
Two changes are done in this patch:
1. do not fail if the cmdline is empty.
2. if /usr/lib/kernel/cmdline or /etc/kernel/cmdline are present, but
empty, ignore /proc/cmdline. If there's explicit configuration to
have empty cmdline, don't ignore it.
The same change was done in dracut:
https://github.com/dracutdevs/dracut/pull/561.
Traditionally, user logins had a $PATH in which /bin was before /sbin, while
root logins had a $PATH with /sbin first. This allows the tricks that
consolehelper is doing to work. But even if we ignore consolehelper, having the
path in this order might have been used by admins for other purposes, and
keeping the order in user sessions will make it easier the adoption of systemd
user sessions a bit easier.
core: stop removing non-existent and duplicate lookup paths
When we would iterate over the lookup paths for each unit, making the list as
short as possible was important for performance. With the current cache, it
doesn't matter much. Two classes of paths were being removed:
- paths which don't exist in the filesystem
- paths which symlink to a path earlier in the search list
Both of those points cause problems with the caching code:
- if a user creates a directory that didn't exist before and puts units there,
now we will notice the new mtime an properly load the unit. When the path
was removed from list, we wouldn't.
- we now properly detect whether a unit path is on the path or not.
Before, if e.g. /lib/systemd/system, /usr/lib/systemd/systemd were both on
the path, and /lib was a symlink to /usr/lib, the second directory would be
pruned from the path. Then, the code would think that a symlink
/etc/systemd/system/foo.service→/lib/systemd/system/foo.service is an alias,
but /etc/systemd/system/foo.service→/usr/lib/systemd/system/foo.service would
be considered a link (in the systemctl link sense).
Removing the pruning has a slight negative performance impact in case of
usr-merge systems which have systemd compiled with non-usr-merge paths.
Non-usr-merge systems are deprecated, and this impact should be very small, so
I think it's OK. If it turns out to be an issue, the loop in function that
builds the cache could be improved to skip over "duplicate" directories with
same logic that the cache pruning did before. I didn't want to add this,
becuase it complicates the code to improve a corner case.
*We* control the sysctl setting. If the user configured IPv6, then we apply the
settings, and just make sure that at some point during the configuration the
sysctl is disabled (i.e. ipv6 enabled) if we have IPv6 configured.

test/test-functions: use binaries from $BUILD_DIR or installed system
In Ubuntu CI, we test binaries from the installed system, not from
$BUILD_DIR, so use the appropriate binary. Most of the calls to the
binaries are part of checking/processing asan-built binaries, and so
did not apply to Ubuntu CI, except for generating noise in the stderr
log like:
objdump: '/tmp/autopkgtest.83yGoI/build.fHB/src/test/TEST-01-BASIC/systemd-journald': No such file
However this also applies to the call to systemd-nspawn, which the debian
upstream test wrapper was sed-adjusting to use the installed binary
instead of the binary in $BUILD_DIR. This commit allows removing that
sed processing of the test-functions file during Ubuntu CI test.

journalctl: Make journalctl --user-unit= match on _SYSTEMD_USER_SLICE
journalctl --unit= already did this, and allows you to tail all the logs
for a certain slice easily. It seemed only natural to make --user-unit
behave in a similar way.
The _SYSTEMD_USER_SLICE field was not documented as being added by
journald, so I have added that to the documentation too.
Furthermore, I have documented the existing behaviour of --unit= and the
new behaviour of --user-unit=
The behaviour was actually not documented before, so I am also OK with
removing the match for the --unit= command instead. The user would then
have to manually provide _SYSTEMD_SLICE= filter to journalctl in both
cases. Both options work for me.
pid1: after creating transient drop-ins, put file in path cache
The alternative would be to recreate the cache, but dropins can be created very

shared/watchdog: close watchdog device when done with it
The file descriptor was opened with O_CLOEXEC, so in practice this doesn't

The test goes into deep details of journal file handling, so it needs to also
do logging on its own.

cgroup: Also set io.bfq.weight
Current kernels with BFQ scheduler do not yet set their IO weight

shared/user-util: allow usernames with dots in specific fields
People do have usernames with dots, and it makes them very unhappy that systemd
doesn't like their that. It seems that there is no actual problem with allowing
dots in the username. In particular chown declares ":" as the official
separator, and internally in systemd we never rely on "." as the seperator
between user and group (nor do we call chown directly). Using dots in the name
is probably not a very good idea, but we don't need to care. Debian tools
(adduser) do not allow users with dots to be created.
This patch allows *existing* names with dots to be used in User, Group,
SupplementaryGroups, SocketUser, SocketGroup fields, both in unit files and on
the command line. DynamicUsers and sysusers still follow the strict policy.
user@.service and tmpfiles already allowed arbitrary user names, and this
remains unchanged.
shared/user-util: add compat forms of user name checking functions
New functions are called valid_user_group_name_compat() and
valid_user_group_name_or_id_compat() and accept dots in the user
or group name. No functional change except the tests.
This fixes #13276. I think current rules are extremely confusing, as the
case in test-networkd-conf shows. We apply some kinds of unescaping (relating
to quoting), but not others (related to escaping of special characters).
But fixing this is hard, because people have adjusted quoting to match
our rules, and if we make the rules "better", things might break in unexpected
places.

of the top-level exclude.
udev: assume all devices which have persistent links also need to be watched
We had two similar lists, but one was accepting many more device types.
I assume that this is by mistake, simply because the lack of device links
is easier to notice than the lack of synthesized event after the device is
written to. This uses the same list in both places, effectively adding
"watch" attribute to /dev/nbd*, /dev/zd*, etc.
