- drop unused variables,
- adjust number of partitions, interations, and timeout,
- clear partitions on each test case finished,
- check if unnecessary devlinks are removed,
- several coding style cleanups.
TEST-64-UDEV-STORAGE: several fixlets for check_device_units()
To suppress the following warnings in case check_device_unit() failed e.g.
when the device is already removed:
```
sed: couldn't write 130 items to stdout: Broken pipe
awk: write failure (Broken pipe)
awk: close failed on file "/dev/stdout" (Broken pipe)
```
udev/node: check the target device node of devlink on removal
If the removal of the devlink is requested due to this is a 'remove' event,
it is trivial that the devlink will not be owned by this device anymore.
Let's read the devlink and if it points to our device node, then we need
to update the devlink. If it points to another device node, then it is already
owned by another device, hence we should not touch it and keep it as is.

journal-gatewayd: fix busy loop when following way beyond journal end
Fix regression introduced in a7bfb9f76b96888d60b4f287f29dcbf758ba34c0,
where busy loop can be started with a request for following logs with a
range header set with num_skip value pointing beyond the end of the
journal. In that case the reader callback returns 0 and is called
immediately again, usually causing an endless loop that is not recovered
even when new journal events are added.
The bug does not occur if num_skip is not set - in that case if no
journal entries matching the filters are added, the tight loop is
avoided by the sd_journal_wait().
To fix the issue, when no matching journal events are available, set a
flag and reuse the backoff mechanism using the sd_journal_wait().
test: send trailing newlines in notify messages in TEST-50-DISSECT
It seems the failing test in https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/37626
is due to MONOTONIC_USEC= being somehow lost. Add a trailing newline when
sending messages with socat, hopefully ensuring it is delivered and read.
As prompted by #38393, search domains may be large when a complicated
network setting is used, especially when VPN is used. Let's bump the
limit to 1024.
Note, this does not bump the maximum number of DNS servers, as setting
thousands of DNS servers is spurious and mostly meaningless. Let's keep
the maximum for a while until someone requests to also bump them.
- move to TEST-07-PID1, as it is a timer setting,
- rename the timer and service, to emphasize they are for testing
DeferReactivation=,
- use timeout command to wait for the timer being triggered several times,
- stop the timer when not necessary,
- accept 9 seconds as delta, as there are fluctuations.
As discussed in https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/38399, "ordinary"
systems can have the field table with a large number of values, causing journal
rotation to occur early. For example, audit generates a log of fields:
$ journalctl --fields | rg -c '^_?AUDIT'
114
It seems that the "structured log" capabilities of the journal are being use
more than in the past. Looking at some journal files on my system, it seems
the field hash table field is quite high in many cases:

Since filling of the field hash table to 75% normally causes file rotation,
let's double the default to make rotation happen less often.
We'll use 11kB more for the hash table, which should be fine, considering
that journal files are usually at least 8 MB.

TEST-71-HOSTNAME: specify job mode for the stop job (#38413)

```

[ 4841.936906] TEST-71-HOSTNAME.sh[140]: + systemctl stop systemd-hostnamed.service

```
This happens when we create the stop job, but while we're waiting for
it to finish, something triggers a start of the unit and we lose to competing
start job.
ptyfwd,run: make pty_forward_drain() trigger defer event to call shovel()
drained() checks PTYForward.master_readable flag, but it may be
tentatively unset due to a tentative error like EAGAIN in the previous
IO event. Let's try to call shovel() one more time, which re-read the
master and call drained() at the end. Otherwise, we may lost some data.
ptyfwd: replace pty_forward_set_ignore_vhangup() with pty_forward_honor_vhangup()
Currently, pty_forward_set_ignore_vhangup() is only used for disabling
the flag. To make the function also disable PTY_FORWARD_IGNORE_INITIAL_VHANGUP
flag, this renames it to pty_forward_honor_vhangup().
Also, for consistency, pty_forward_get_ignore_vhangup() and
ignore_vhangup() are replaced with pty_forward_vhangup_honored().
ptyfwd: do not call pty_forward_done() in do_shovel()
Previously, do_shovel() sometimes call pty_forward_done(), and
its caller shovel() also call pty_forward_done(). Let's move all
pty_forward_done() calls to shovel(), and do_shovel() not call it.
We had errno_to_name() which works for "known" errnos, and returns NULL for
unknown ones, and then ERRNO_NAME which always returns an answer, possibly just
a number as a string, but requires a helper buffer.
It is possible for the kernel to add a new errno. We recently learned that some
architectures define custom errno names. Or for some function to unexpectedly
return a bogus errno value. In almost all cases it's better to print that value
rather than "n/a" or "(null)". So let's use ERRNO_NAME is most error handling
code. Noteably, our code wasn't very good in handling the potential NULL, so
in various places we could print "(null)". Since this is supposed to be used
most of the time, let's shorten the names to ERRNO_NAME/errno_name.
There are a few places where we don't want to use the fallback path, in
particular for D-Bus error names or when saving the error name. Let's rename
errno_to_name() to errno_name_no_fallback() to make the distinction clearer.
For whatever reason, ly is setting $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR before invoking
PAM session on its own
(https://github.com/fairyglade/ly/blob/v1.1.1/src/auth.zig#L45),
which after the offending commit will potentially be unset again
by pam_systemd. Let's restore the previous behavior if not switching area.
With this change we fully duplicate the functionality in glibc. This patch
was motivated by glibc missing some names, but those are in the process of
being added:

man/systemd-boot: recommend holding space by default
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/15509/files#r2234113960 complains that the
advice is still not clear enough. systemd-boot itself says
"Menu hidden. Hold down key at bootup to show menu."
so let's do the same and tell users to hold down space as the first option.
This should work fine for 99% of people. Then invert the following advice to
try repeated pressing as the alternative option.
Also, fix the advice about --boot-loader-menu=. The whole para is about getting
the menu to show, so 0 is not a good value.
Follow-up for https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/15509.
man/systemd-boot: describe which keys use EFI variables
Some keys have only a transient effect, e.g. 'e', but some have a persistent
effect, e.g. 'd'. This is important informations, but the reader might be
forgiven for not finding that at all obvious when reading the descriptions of
the keys.
Also, mention in loader.conf man page that the settings there might be overriden
by EFI variables. This is another thing that is important but not obvious.
For some reason, the man page for loader.conf also mentioned type#1 entries
in passing. Except for using the same file extension, those files are in a
completely different format and with a different purpose. This mixup was
first introduced in f37d3835828c45b3a92ed12d9a6a30796c0a4a27, was then
reported in #10923, which was closed by cbae79b8d07327051c1e1f438f7086ab634b93f8,
but that didn't fix the actual issue.
Really fixes #10923.
While at it, simplify and improve the wording a bit.
The usual pattern of using colors to distinguish the mount path (/efi/)
and the rest is used. If the file cannot be read for reasons other than
-ENOENT, the error message is highlighted.
I considered a few places where to add this, but this section seems the
most reaosonable. We already print the 'token' there, which is also part of
the configuration.

ci: add test coverage for secure boot and addons, and shim integration (#38377)
Now that we can enable SB on GHA do it by default in mkosi images with
selfenroll, and add a smoke test.
Also add one CI job that tests the shim integration. This will catch
regressions like https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/38349
Debian provides a signed shim that trusts sdboot and can be
installed without pulling in grub automatically. Install it
in the debian mkosi CI job, and build a custom efivars with
the mkosi cert enrolled in MOK but not DB, to test those
code paths.

conf-files: CHASE_MUST_BE_DIRECTORY can be set with CHASE_NONEXISTENT
With the previous commit, now CHASE_MUST_BE_DIRECTORY can be set with
CHASE_NONEXISTENT. Let's unconditionally set the flag to chase the
directory part of the conf file.
chase: check the result is a directory or regular file only when the resolved path exists
Otherwise, if it is called with CHASE_NONEXISTENT, when we call
stat_verify_directory()/_regular() the struct stat is for one of the
parent directory, rather than for the result path.
With this change, we can safely specify CHASE_MUST_BE_DIRECTORY/REGULAR
with CHASE_NONEXISTENT.
More importantly, chaseat() internally sets CHASE_MUST_BE_DIRECTORY when
the input path ends with "/", "/,", "/..". Hence, without this change,
we cannot specify CHASE_NONEXISTENT safely.
Fixes the following error when running with sanitizers:

No functional change, just refactoring and preparation for the next

We want to check if the magic we got from statfs() is one of the magics listed
for one of the file systems in the given group. To do this, we'd iteratate over
the file system names, convert each name to an array of magics, and compare
those to the one we got. We were using gperf-generated lookup table for this,
so the string lookups were quick, but still this seems unnecessarily complex.
Let's just generate a simple lookup function, because we can:
meson: rework generation of file system lookup helpers
Previously, the gperf table was the main "source of truth", and additional
information (e.g. which file system names are obsolete) was scattered in
various files. We would then parse the gperf file, using python, awk, grep, and
bash, and use the results in various ways. This is hard to understand and
maintain. Let's replace all of this with a single python script that generates
the requested outputs as appropriate.
$ diff -u <(git show @{u}:src/basic/filesystems-gperf.gperf) \
<(src/basic/filesystem-sets.py gperf)
shows that the outputs are the same except for comments.
Similarly, 'src/basic/filesystem-sets.py fs-type-to-string' and
'src/basic/filesystem-sets.py filesystem-sets' can be used to view
the generated code.
The check that the kernel doesn't define any new file system magics is
converted into a normal test. It doesn't seem necessary to fail the build
when that happens.
I was looking at strace for systemd-getty-generator and noticed the call to
faccessat2(3</sys>, "", W_OK, AT_EMPTY_PATH), even though we already did
fstatfs(3</sys>), which should give us all the necessary information. Let's
only do this additional check when it's likely to yield something useful, i.e.
for network fses and otherwise skip the syscall.
The call to statvfs is replaced by statfs because that gives us the .f_type
field and allows is_network_fs() to be called.
I'm a bit worried that the is_network_fs() is somewhat costly. This will be
improved in later commits.
sd-bus: escape invalid characters in error message
At many places, we pass arguments of dbus method calls to
sd_bus_error_setf(), and produces unprintable log messages.
Let's always escape the generated error message.
NEWS: announce legacy iptables/libiptc support will be dropped in v259
nftables is available since kernel 3.13 (released on 19 January 2014).
Major distributions have already provided nftables, and marked/called
iptables as deprecated or legacy.
Moreover, currently, iptables/libiptc backend does not support IPv6.
Hence, it is not necessary to keep iptables/libiptc backend anymore.
Let's drop it in the next release.
Note, fedora/centos have already disabled iptables/libiptc support since v249.
