systemctl: fix type used for array sizes to size_t
We always should use size_t for sizes of arrays (and any size of memory,
in fact), unless there's a strong reason to use something else. Hence,
let's fix these cases where we sloppily used "unsigned" or "int"
instead.
No change in behaviour, this is just to make things less surprising for
the random reader.
sysctl: add --strict option to fail if sysctl does not exists
systemd-sysctl currently fails silently under any of these conditions:
- Missing permission to write a sysctl.
- Invalid sysctl (path doesn't exists).
- Ignore failure flag ('-' in front of the sysctl name).
Because of this behaviour, configuration issues can go unnoticed as
there is no way to detect those unless going through the logs.
--strict option forces systemd-sysctl to fail if a sysctl is invalid or
if permission are insufficient. Errors on sysctl marked as "ignore
failure" will still be ignored.
And this makes the new merged function `sd_nfnl_nft_message_new_setelems()`
not open container, as containers should be opened and closed in the
same function in general. Otherwise, it is hard to understand which
level we are in the nested attribute tree.

sd-netlink: several cleanups for netfilter
- rename family -> nfproto, and other arguments,
- check specified nfproto,
- change type of several function arguments that specify data length,
- add several assertions,
- drop unnecessary headers.
udev: reload rules and builtins only when mtime of a config changed
This makes udevd reload rules only when the timestamp is updated,
even on SIGHUP or `udevadm control --reload`.
So, we can call `udevadm control --reload` without huge performance
penalty when no rules, .link files, and so on are changed.
network: do not silently stop to process configuration on activation failure
Previously, if activation failed, link did not enter the failed state,
but still Link.activated flag not set. Hence, nothing processed even if
the interface is manually brought up later.
For the system manager, /run/systemd/private is publicly accessible, because
/run/systemd is 0755, and /run/systemd/private is 0777. For the user manager,
/run/user/<uid> is 0700, and /run/user/<uid>/systemd/private is 0777. This
does not directly cause any security issue because we check the sender in
bus_check_peercred (ucred.uid != 0 && ucred.uid != geteuid()).
But it makes sense to limit access to the socket to avoid wasting time in PID1.
Somebody could send messages there that'd we'd reject anyway. It also makes
things more explicit.
libblkid gained new tags - FSSIZE, FSLASTBLOCK and FSBLOCKSIZE.
These tags are filesystem related properties probed from superblock.
All of them are enabled by BLKID_SUBLKS_FSINFO flag.
Set the flag to allow these tags to be cached in udev db.

While Type=file works because it seems to be the default, the line gets
ignored as printed on the stderr output.
Use the correct value "regular-file" for the target type.

man: Document mask workaround for sysext images
A read-only /usr may ship a sysext image by default and the user wants
to opt out. Currently it's not clear how to do this.
Document that a /dev/null symlink in /etc/extensions/ works to "mask" a
sysext image in a folder with lower precedence.

man: Do not recommend to overlay files with sysext even if possible
While overlaying files with a sysext can be useful, it may lead to
unexpected problems depending on when a process got started and which
version of the file it gets.
Call out that overlaying files is possible but don't recommend to make
use of it.
Let's re-introduce the option in the correct way, as some servers seem
to return borked message when the solicit message contain the rapid
commit option.
test-network: do not stop/restart udevd and related socket units
That's not necessary. Moreover, if the socket units are stopped in
`setUpModule()`, then there exists a short timespan that we cannot call
`udevadm control`, as the control socket may not be opened yet.
If we run whole tests, then the first test is
NetworkctlTests.test_altname, and it calls `udevadm control` in `setUp()`.
Hence, the test may fail.
man: split out "Type Modifiers" section from "Types" section in tmpfiles.d docs
I had trouble finding the right paragraphs, so I guess others might have
too. Hence let's add a tiny bit more structure by separating these two
parts out.
core: cache unit file selinux label, and make decisions based on that
Do not go back to disk on each selinux access, but instead cache the
label off the inode we are actually reading. That way unit file contents
and unit file label we use for access checks are always in sync.
This changes behaviour a bit, because we'll reach and cache the label at
the moment of loading the unit (i.e. usually on boot and reload), but
not after relabelling. Thus, users must refresh the cache explicitly via
a "systemctl daemon-reload" if they relabelled things.
This makes the SELinux story a bit more debuggable, as it adds an
AccessSELinuxContext bus property to units that will report the label we are
using for a unit (or the empty string if not known).
This also drops using the "source" path of a unit as label source. if
there's value in it, then generators should manually copy the selinux
label from the source files onto the generated unit files, so that the
rule that "access labels are read when we read the definition files" is
upheld. But I am not convinced this is really a necessary, good idea.
sleep: store battery discharge rate/hour with hash
Estimated battery discharge rate per hour is stored in :
/var/lib/systemd/sleep/battery_discharge_percentage_rate_per_hour
This value is used to determine the initial suspend interval. In case
this file is not available or value is invalid, HibernateDelaySec
interval is used.
After wakeup from initial suspend, this value is again estimated and
written to file if value is in range of 1-199.
Logs for reference : HibernateDelaySec=15min

mkosi: Changes to allow booting with sanitizers in mkosi
- Extra memory because ASAN needs it
- The environment variables to make the sanitizers more useful
- LD_PRELOAD because the ASAN DSO needs to be the first in the list
- The sanitizer library packages
- Disable syscall filters because they interfere with ASAN
- Disable systemd-hwdb-update because it's super slow when systemd-hwdb
is built with sanitizers
- Take the value for meson's b_sanitize option from the SANITIZERS

man/system-or-user-ns.xml: explicitly refer to `PrivateUsers=` option
It is not clear what "unprivileged user namespaces are available" means.
It could mean either that they are only usable, that is, enabled in the kernel,
or they have been enabled for the specific service. Referring to the
`PrivateUsers=` options makes it clear that the latter is meant.
