3b3557c410 shared, systemctl: teach is-enabled to show installation targets
It may be desired by users to know what targets a particular service is
installed into. Improve user friendliness by teaching the is-enabled
command to show such information when used with --full.

This patch makes use of the newly added UnitFileFlags and adds
UNIT_FILE_DRY_RUN flag into it. Since the API had already been modified,
it's now easy to add the new dry-run feature for other commands as
well. As a next step, --dry-run could be added to systemctl, which in
turn might pave the way for a long requested dry-run feature when
running systemctl start.

05a98afd3e core: add Ref()/Unref() bus calls for units
This adds two (privileged) bus calls Ref() and Unref() to the Unit interface.
The two calls may be used by clients to pin a unit into memory, so that various
runtime properties aren't flushed out by the automatic GC. This is necessary
to permit clients to race-freely acquire runtime results (such as process exit
status/code or accumulated CPU time) on successful service termination.

Ref() and Unref() are fully recursive, hence act like the usual reference
counting concept in C. Taking a reference is a privileged operation, as this
allows pinning units into memory which consumes resources.

Transient units may also gain a reference at the time of creation, via the new
AddRef property (that is only defined for transient units at the time of
creation).

To "search something", in the meaning of looking for it, is valid,
but "search _for_ something" is much more commonly used, especially when
the meaning could be confused with "looking _through_ something"

(C.f. "the police search a person", "the police search for a person".)

Also reword the rest of the paragraph to avoid using "automatically"
three times.

3990961df0 man: update systemctl man page for unit file commands, in particular "systemctl enable"
Clarify that "systemctl enable" can operate either on unit names or on unit
file paths (also, adjust the --help text to clarify this). Say that "systemctl
enable" on unit file paths also links the unit into the search path.

Many other fixes.

This should improve the documentation to avoid further confusion around #3706.

39207373dd systemctl,pid1: do not warn about missing install info with "preset"
When "preset" was executed for a unit without install info, we'd warn similarly
as for "enable" and "disable". But "preset" is usually called for all units,
because the preset files are provided by the distribution, and the units are under
control of individual programs, and it's reasonable to call "preset" for all units
rather then try to do it only for the ones that can be installed.
We also don't warn about missing info for "preset-all". Thus it seems reasonable
to silently ignore units w/o install info when presetting.

(In addition, when more than one unit was specified, we'd issue the warning
only if none of them had install info. But this is probably something to fix
for enable/disable too.)

But also keep the old name as (undocumented) compatibility around.

The reload-or-try-restart was documented to be a NOP if the unit is not running, since the previous commits this is
also implemented. The old name suggests that the "try" logic only applies to restarting. Fix this, by moving the "try-"
to the front, to indicate that the whole option is a NOP if the service isn't running.

e9fd88f2e9 core: allow 'SetUnitProperties()' to run on inactive units too
'set-property' has been primarly designed to change some properties of
*active* units.

However it can easily work on inactive units as well. In that case
changes are only saved in a drop-in for futur uses and changes will be
effective when unit will be started.

Actually it already works on inactive units but that was not
documented and not fully supported. Indeed the inactive units had to
be known by the manager otherwise it was reported as not loaded:

 $ systemctl status my-test.service
 * my-test.service - My Testing Unit
    Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/my-test.service; static; vendor preset: disabled)
   Drop-In: /etc/systemd/system/my-test.service.d
    Active: inactive (dead)

 $ systemctl set-property my-test.service MemoryLimit=1000000
 Failed to set unit properties on my-test.service: Unit my-test.service is not loaded.

[ Note: that the unit load state reported by the 'status' command
  might be confusing since it claimed the unit as loaded but
  'set-property' reported the contrary. ]

One can possibily workaround this by making the unit a dependency of
another active unit so the manager will keep it around:

 $ systemctl add-wants multi-user.target my-test.service
 Created symlink from /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/my-test.service to /etc/systemd/system/my-test.service.

 $ systemctl set-property my-test.service MemoryLimit=1000000

 $ systemctl status my-test.service
 * my-test.service - My Testing Unit
    Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/my-test.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled)
   Drop-In: /etc/systemd/system/my-test.service.d
            `-50-MemoryLimit.conf
    Active: inactive (dead)

This patch simply forces 'SetUnitProperties()' to load the unit if
it's not already the case.

It also documents the fact that 'set-property' can be used on inactive
units.

f32b43bda4 core: remove support for RequiresOverridable= and RequisiteOverridable=
As discussed at systemd.conf 2015 and on also raised on the ML:

http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2015-November/034880.html

This removes the two XyzOverridable= unit dependencies, that were
basically never used, and do not enhance user experience in any way.
Most folks looking for the functionality this provides probably opt for
the "ignore-dependencies" job mode, and that's probably a good idea.

Hence, let's simplify systemd's dependency engine and remove these two
dependency types (and their inverses).

The unit file parser and the dbus property parser will now redirect
the settings/properties to result in an equivalent non-overridable
dependency. In the case of the unit file parser we generate a warning,
to inform the user.

The dbus properties for this unit type stay available on the unit
objects, but they are now hidden from usual introspection and will
always return the empty list when queried.

This should provide enough compatibility for the few unit files that
actually ever made use of this.

0ec0deaa30 install: follow unit file symlinks in /usr, but not /etc when looking for [Install] data
Some distributions use alias unit files via symlinks in /usr to cover
for legacy service names. With this change we'll allow "systemctl
enable" on such aliases.

Previously, our rule was that symlinks are user configuration that
"systemctl enable" + "systemctl disable" creates and removes, while unit
files is where the instructions to do so are store. As a result of the
rule we'd never read install information through symlinks, since that
would mix enablement state with installation instructions.

Now, the new rule is that only symlinks inside of /etc are
configuration. Unit files, and symlinks in /usr are now valid for
installation instructions.

This patch is quite a rework of the whole install logic, and makes the
following addional changes:

- Adds a complete test "test-instal-root" that tests the install logic
  pretty comprehensively.

- Never uses canonicalize_file_name(), because that's incompatible with
  operation relative to a specific root directory.

- unit_file_get_state() is reworked to return a proper error, and
  returns the state in a call-by-ref parameter. This cleans up confusion
  between the enum type and errno-like errors.

- The new logic puts a limit on how long to follow unit file symlinks:
  it will do so only for 64 steps at max.

- The InstallContext object's fields are renamed to will_process and
  has_processed (will_install and has_installed) since they are also
  used for deinstallation and all kinds of other operations.

- The root directory is always verified before use.

- install.c is reordered to place the exported functions together.

- Stricter rules are followed when traversing symlinks: the unit suffix
  must say identical, and it's not allowed to link between regular units
  and templated units.

- Various modernizations

- The "invalid" unit file state has been renamed to "bad", in order to
  avoid confusion between UNIT_FILE_INVALID and
  _UNIT_FILE_STATE_INVALID. Given that the state should normally not be
  seen and is not documented this should not be a problematic change.
  The new name is now documented however.

36b4a7ba55 Remove snapshot unit type
Snapshots were never useful or used for anything. Many systemd
developers that I spoke to at systemd.conf2015, didn't even know they
existed, so it is fairly safe to assume that this type can be deleted
without harm.

The fundamental problem with snapshots is that the state of the system
is dynamic, devices come and go, users log in and out, timers fire...
and restoring all units to some state from the past would "undo"
those changes, which isn't really possible.

Tested by creating a snapshot, running the new binary, and checking
that the transition did not cause errors, and the snapshot is gone,
and snapshots cannot be created anymore.

New systemctl says:
Unknown operation snapshot.
Old systemctl says:
Failed to create snapshot: Support for snapshots has been removed.

IgnoreOnSnaphost settings are warned about and ignored:
Support for option IgnoreOnSnapshot= has been removed and it is ignored

287419c119 containers: systemd exits with non-zero code
When a systemd service running in a container exits with a non-zero
code, it can be useful to terminate the container immediately and get
the exit code back to the host, when systemd-nspawn returns. This was
not possible to do. This patch adds the following to make it possible:

- Add a read-only "ExitCode" property on PID 1's "Manager" bus object.
  By default, it is 0 so the behaviour stays the same as previously.
- Add a method "SetExitCode" on the same object. The method fails when
  called on baremetal: it is only allowed in containers or in user
  session.
- Add support in systemctl to call "systemctl exit 42". It reuses the
  existing code for user session.
- Add exit.target and systemd-exit.service to the system instance.
- Change main() to actually call systemd-shutdown to exit() with the
  correct value.
- Add verb 'exit' in systemd-shutdown with parameter --exit-code
- Update systemctl manpage.

I used the following to test it:

| $ sudo rkt --debug --insecure-skip-verify run \
|            --mds-register=false --local docker://busybox \
|            --exec=/bin/chroot -- /proc/1/root \
|            systemctl --force exit 42
| ...
| Container rkt-895a0cba-5c66-4fa5-831c-e3f8ddc5810d failed with error code 42.
| $ echo $?

681eb9cf2b man: generate configured paths in manpages
In particular, use /lib/systemd instead of /usr/lib/systemd in distributions
like Debian which still have not adopted a /usr merge setup.

Use XML entities from man/custom-entities.ent to replace configured paths while
doing XSLT processing of the original XML files. There was precedent of some
files (such as systemd.generator.xml) which were already using this approach.

This addresses most of the (manual) fixes from this patch:
http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-systemd/systemd.git/tree/debian/patches/Fix-paths-in-man-pages.patch?h=experimental-220

The idea of using generic XML entities was presented here:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2015-May/032240.html

This patch solves almost all the issues, with the exception of:
- Path to /bin/mount and /bin/umount.
- Generic statements about preference of /lib over /etc.

These will be handled separately by follow up patches.

Tested:
- With default configure settings, ran "make install" to two separate
  directories and compared the output to confirm they matched exactly.
- Used a set of configure flags including $CONFFLAGS from Debian:
  http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-systemd/systemd.git/tree/debian/rules
  Installed the tree and confirmed the paths use /lib/systemd instead of
  /usr/lib/systemd and that no other unexpected differences exist.
- Confirmed that `make distcheck` still passes.

432d59656b man: add systemd.generator(7)
This is largely based on http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/Generators/,
and obsoletes that page. It seems that we do a much better
job of keeping man pages up-to-date compared to wiki pages.
Man pages are also easier to find for users.

7d4fb3b1c5 systemctl: add edit verb
It helps editing units by either creating a drop-in file, like
/etc/systemd/system/my.service.d/override.conf, or by copying the
original unit from /usr/lib/systemd/ to /etc/systemd/ if the --full
option is specified.

It invokes an editor on temporary files related to the unit files and
if the editor exited successfully, then it renames the temporary files
to their original names (e.g. my.service or override.conf) and
daemon-reload is invoked.

If the temporary file is empty the modification is canceled.

f6375e8376 man: reword list-dependencies description
The previous version was a bit too vague. It is better
to simply list all dependency types that are followed.

Previous version also made an emphasis on dependencies introduced by
configuration.  But this command (or systemd) don't care about this
distinction between configured and automatically added dependencies at
all. This distinctionis removed from the main description, and an
explanatory paragraph is added to remind the user that all
dependencies are shown, no matter where they come from.

3802a3d3d7 man: add emacs header to get correct indention in nxml-mode for the manpage XML files that use 2ch indenting
In the long run we really should figure out if we want to stick with 8ch
or 2ch indenting, and not continue with half-and-half. For now, just
make emacs aware of the files that use 2ch indenting.

036359ba8d man: don't document systemctl --failed
This effectively reverts 599b6322f1, which
in turn partially reverted 4dc5b821ae.

The --failed switch is not documented on purpose, since it is redundant
due to --state=failed, which it predates. Due to that it's not
documented in --help either.

We generally try to avoid redundant interfaces, but if we need to keep
them for compatibility we do so, however remove them from documentation
to ensure they are not used in future.

The man page is now changed to include a comment about the fact that
--failed is not documented on purpose. Also, explicitly mention
--state=failed as example for --state.

5aded36978 man: add a mapping for external manpages
It is annoying when we have dead links on fd.o.

Add project='man-pages|die-net|archlinux' to <citerefentry>-ies.

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?

d309c1c364 install: beef up preset logic to limit to only enable or only disable, and do all-unit preset operations
The new "systemctl preset-all" command may now be used to put all
installed units back into the enable/disable state the vendor/admin
encoded in preset files.

Also, introduce "systemctl --preset-mode=enable-only" and "systemctl
--preset-mode=disable-only" to only apply the enable or only the disable
operations of a "systemctl preset" or "systemctl preset-all" operation.

"systemctl preset-all" implements this RFE:

9029f64298 man: improve wording of systemctl's --after/--before
Commit 4a77ca7 was an attempt at fixing the wording of --after and --before,
but the new wording was unclear.

Split the combined --after/--before section into a separate section for
each, explicitly state what each option does, and add information about
how these lists are generated.
