hwdb: add evdev entry for the Lenovo X230 series touchpad
The Lenovo X230 advertize a vertical resolution of 136, which gives a true
size of 31 mm. The actual physical size of the touchpad is 40 mm, so
override the resolution to 100.

Lenovo has changed the sensitivity of the trackpoint on the x240 / T440s / T540

The ThinkPad X200s is way way too slow by default and unless you push the

sensitivity to make it send a wider range of deltas and apply a const accel
factor to make it have a more reasonable speed by default.

udev: keyboard-builtin: Add support for setting IBM trackpoint sensitivity
IBM / Lenovo trackpoints allow specifying a sensitivity setting through a
ps/2 command, which changes the range of the deltas sent when using the
trackpoint.
On some models with normal usage only deltas of 1 or 2 are send, resulting in
there only being 2 mouse cursor movement speeds, rather than the expected fluid
scale. Changing the sensitivity to a higher level than the bootup default fixes
this.
This commit adds support for setting a POINTINGSTICK_SENSITIVITY value

service: transition through SIGKILL states only when SIGKILL is enabled
If there's no remaining process to kill, skip the SIGKILL states if
SIGKILL is disabled.
Effectively this doesn't change much since if there's nothing to kill
with SIGTERM or SIGABRT then there's also nothing to kill with SIGKILL.
However, this avoids confusion with the state engine jumping through
SIGKILL states for no reason...

udev: settle should return immediately when timeout is 0
udevadm manual says:
A value of 0 will check if the queue is empty and always return
immediately.
However, currently we ignore the deadline if the value is 0, and wait
without any limit.
Zero timeout behaved according to the documentation until commit ead7c62ab7 (udevadm: settle - kill alarm()). Looking at this patch, it
seems that the behavior change was unintended.

selinux: use different log priorites for log messages
When selinux calls our callback with a log message, it specifies the
type as AVC or INFO/WARNING/ERROR. The question is how to map this to
audit types and/or log priorities. SELINUX_AVC maps to AUDIT_USER_AVC
reasonably, but for the other messages we have no idea, hence we use
AUDIT_USER_AVC for everything. When not using audit logging, we can
map those selinux levels to LOG_INFO/WARNING/ERROR etc.
Also update comment which was not valid anymore in light of journald
sucking in audit logs, and was actually wrong from the beginning —
libselinux uses the callback for everything, not just avcs.

input_id: Identify scroll-wheel device on Trust TB7300 tablet as keyboard
The Trust TB7300 (relabelled Waltop?) tablet has a scrollwheel which shows
up as a /dev/input/event# node all by itself. Currently input_id does not
set any ID_INPUT_FOO attr on this causing it it to not be recognized by

This commit fixes this by marking it with ID_INPUT_KEY.
tmpfiles: Add +C attrib to the journal files directories
Add the +C file attribute (NOCOW) to the journal directories, so that
the flag is inherited automatically for new journal files created in
them. The journal write pattern is problematic on btrfs file systems as
it results in badly fragmented files when copy-on-write (COW) is used:
the performances decreases substantially over time.
To avoid this issue, this tmpfile.d snippet sets the NOCOW attribute to
the journal files directories, so newly created journal files inherit
the NCOOW attribute that disables copy-on-write.
Be aware that the NOCOW file attribute also disables btrfs checksumming
for these files, and thus prevents btrfs from rebuilding corrupted files
on a RAID filesystem.
In a single disk filesystems (or filesystems without redundancy) it is
safe to use the NOCOW flags without drawbacks, since the journal files
contain their own checksumming.
This code appears to follow the following convention:
- all errors are logged at point of origin
- oom errors abort execution, non-oom errors are logged but
execution continues.
Make sure all ooms result in a log message, and remove warning which could
not be reached. Downgrade non-fatal errors to warnings.
A stateless system has a tmpfs as root file system. That obviously
does not have any block device associated with it. So try falling back
to the device of the /usr filesystem if the root filesystem fails.

bus: implement bus_path_{en,de}code_unique()
Whenever we provide a bus API that allows clients to create and manage
server-side objects, we need to provide a unique name for these objects.
There are two ways to provide them:
1) Let the server choose a name and return it as method reply.
2) Let the client pass its name of choice in the method arguments.
The first method is the easiest one to implement. However, it suffers from
a race condition: If a client creates an object asynchronously, it cannot
destroy that object until it received the method reply. It cannot know the
name of the new object, thus, it cannot destroy it. Furthermore, this
method enforces a round-trip. If the client _depends_ on the method call
to succeed (eg., it would close() the connection if it failed), the client
usually has no reason to wait for the method reply. Instead, the client
can immediately schedule further method calls on the newly created object
(in case the API guarantees in-order method-call handling).
The second method fixes both problems: The client passes an object name
with the method-call. The server uses it to create the object. Therefore,
the client can schedule object destruction even if the object-creation
hasn't finished, yet (again, requiring in-order method-call handling).
Furthermore, the client can schedule further method calls on the newly
created object, before the constructor returned.
There're two problems to solve, though:
1) Object names are usually defined via dbus object paths, which are
usually globally namespaced. Therefore, multiple clients must be able
to choose unique object names without interference.
2) If multiple libraries share the same bus connection, they must be
able to choose unique object names without interference.
The first problem is solved easily by prefixing a name with the
unique-bus-name of a connection. The server side must enforce this and
reject any other name.
The second problem is solved by providing unique suffixes from within
sd-bus. As long as sd-bus always returns a fresh new ID, if requested,
multiple libraries will never interfere. This implementation re-uses
bus->cookie as ID generator, which already provides unique IDs for each
bus connection.
This patch introduces two new helpers:
bus_path_encode_unique(sd_bus *bus,
const char *prefix,
const char *sender_id,
const char *external_id,
char **ret_path);
This creates a new object-path via the template
'/prefix/sender_id/external_id'. That is, it appends two new labels to
the given prefix. If 'sender_id' is NULL, it will use
bus->unique_name, if 'external_id' is NULL, it will allocate a fresh,
unique cookie from bus->cookie.
bus_path_decode_unique(const char *path,
const char *prefix,
char **ret_sender,
char **ret_external);
This reverses what bus_path_encode_unique() did. It parses 'path' from
the template '/prefix/sender/external' and returns both suffix-labels
in 'ret_sender' and 'ret_external'. In case the template does not
match, 0 is returned and both output arguments are set to NULL.
Otherwise, 1 is returned and the output arguments contain the decoded
labels.
Note: Client-side allocated IDs are inspired by the Wayland protocol
(which itself was inspired by X11). Wayland uses those IDs heavily
to avoid round-trips. Clients can create server-side objects and
send method calls without any round-trip and waiting for any object
IDs to be returned. But unlike Wayland, DBus uses gobally namespaced
object names. Therefore, we have to add the extra step by adding the
unique-name of the bus connection.

udevd: fix synchronization with settle when handling inotify events
udev uses inotify to implement a scheme where when the user closes
a writable device node, a change uevent is forcefully generated.
In the case of block devices, it actually requests a partition rescan.
This currently can't be synchronized with "udevadm settle", i.e. this
is not reliable in a script:
sfdisk --change-id /dev/sda 1 81
udevadm settle
mount /dev/sda1 /foo
The settle call doesn't synchronize there, so at the same time we try
to mount the device, udevd is busy removing the partition device nodes and
readding them again. The mount call often happens in that moment where the
partition node has been removed but not readded yet.
but that fix is no longer valid now that sequence numbers are no longer
used.
Fix this by forcing another mainloop iteration after handling inotify events
before unblocking settle. If the inotify event caused us to generate a
"change" event, we'll pick that up in the following loop iteration, before
we reach the end of the loop where we respond to settle's control message,
unblocking it.
