systemd.unit(5) is a wall of text. And this particular feature can be very useful
in the context of resource control. Let's avertise this cool feature a bit more.
Fixes#17900.
Before, we only allowed conditionalizing on controllers, not the hierarchy.
This commit extends this to allow a simple check for v1 (i.e. classic or hybrid),
and v2 (full unified).
An alternative approach would be to add a separate Condition for this, but I'm
not too keen on that, considering that v1 is already being deprecrecated
(c.f. 82f3063218).
e3820eeaf1 did that replacement XDG_CONFIG_HOME, in one
of two places. Let's use ~/.config everywhere.
Quoting https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/18704#discussion_r579465254:

Commit 83f72cd65f ("man,docs: document the new unit file directory for
attached images") updated the docs and man page with the new unit file
directory for attached images but included a system.attached ->
systemd.attached typo in the man page portion of the change. Fix the
typo to document the correct path.
Taking a stab at implementing #14479.
Add {Condition,Assert}CPUFeature to `systemd-analyze` & friends. Implement it
by executing the CPUID instruction. Add tables for common x86/i386
features.
Tested via unit tests + checked that commands such as:
```bash
systemd-analyze condition 'AssertCPUFeature = rdrand'
```
Succeed as expected and that commands such as
```bash
systemd-analyze condition 'AssertCPUFeature = foobar'
```
Fail as expected. Finally, I have amended the `systemd.unit` manual page
with the new condition and the list of all currently supported flags.
A minor tweak, that hopefully makes things a bit clearer, given that we
previously used "requirement dependency" when referring to Wants=, which
might be confusing given that we have Requires=
Currently systemd-detect-virt fails to detect running under PowerVM.
Add code to detect PowerVM based on code in util-linux.

The concept is flawed, and mostly useless. Let's finally remove it.
It has been deprecated since 90a2ec10f2 (6
years ago) and we started to warn since
55dadc5c57 (1.5 years ago).
Let's get rid of it altogether.
For users, the square brackets already serve as markup and clearly delineate
the section name from surrounding text. Putting additional markup around that
only adds clutter. Also, we were very inconsistent in using the quotes. Let's
just drop them altogether.
Six years ago we declared it obsolete and removed it from the docs
(c073a0c4a5) and added a note about it in
NEWS. Two years ago we add warning messages about it, indicating the
feature will be removed (41b283d0f1) and
mentioned it in NEWS again.
Let's now kill it for good.
Much like systemd.condition-needs-update= this new switch allows
overriding of a unit file condition, but this time its
ConditionFirstBoot=.
Usecase is also primarily debugging, but could be useful for other
schemes too.
As described in #15603, it is a fairly common setup to use a fqdn as the
configured hostname. But it is often convenient to use just the actual
hostname, i.e. until the first dot. This adds support in tmpfiles, sysusers,
and unit files for %l which expands to that.
Fixes#15603.
The hack with getparent().txt is not very pretty, but the whole
thing seems to work well enough. It is useful to figure out whihc
specifiers are supported where.
We probably can migrate even more, but for now let's just migrate those
which have the 1:1 identical text everywhere.
(Also, let's add the % entry to all specifier tables)
proot provides userspace-powered emulation of chroot and mount --bind,
lending it to be used on environments without unprivileged user
namespaces, or in otherwise restricted environments like Android.
In order to achieve this, proot makes use of the kernel's ptrace()
facility, which we can use in order to detect its presence. Since it
doesn't use any kind of namespacing, including PID namespacing, we don't
need to do any tricks when trying to get the tracer's metadata.
For our purposes, proot is listed as a "container", since we mostly use
this also as the bucket for non-container-but-container-like
technologies like WSL. As such, it seems like a good fit for this
section as well.
There are sometimes users who put unit files in a location that is inaccessible
when systemd starts although they are not found and thus not started because
the corresponding mount units have not activated yet.
There is already a warning for such issue in man 8 systemctl:
link PATH...
...<snip>...
The file system where
the linked unit files are located must be accessible
when systemd is started (e.g. anything underneath /home
or /var is not allowed, unless those directories are
located on the root file system).
However, it looks that it's difficult to find the warning because introductory
users typically doesn't know systemctl link.
Although there is a description in UNIT FILE LOAD PATH pointing to systemctl
link, symlink is now not explicitly mentioned there and thus users doesn't
easily get aware of they should read it.
To deal with this, let's describe "symlink" and "systemctl link" more
explicitly in UNIT FILE LOAD PATH.
When wrong element types are used, directives are sometimes placed in the wrong
section. Also, strip part of text starting with "'", which is used in a few
places and which is displayed improperly in the index.
Discussed in #13743, the -.service semantic conflicts with the
existing root mount and slice names, making this feature not
uniformly extensible to all types. Change the name to be
<type>.d instead.
Updating to this format also extends the top-level dropin to
unit types.
We want users to use Wants, but we'd describe Requires first and ask users to
look for Wants instead. While at it, let's split the wall of text into sensible
paragraphs: syntax first, followed by semantics and longer description, and
finally hints and comparison to other configuration items last.
We slowly added many many conditions over the years, and the text became
very hard to read, because all the terms were squished in one <termitem>.
This rearragnes the text into a new subsection, with minimal grammar changes
and removal of repetitions.
The description of Alias= wasn't incorrect, but it sounded like Alias= creates
a different type of dependency, while it's just a glorified way to create
symlinks. Also recommend 'preset' in addition to 'enable'.
Describe .wants/.requires dirs as equals, without implying that the [Install]
section can only be used for .wants.
The text was partially out of date (systemd-networkd.service now creates as
alias in /etc, not /usr/lib, let's just not say anything about the full path).
Before only one comparison was allowed. Let's make this more flexible:
ConditionKernelVersion = ">=4.0" "<=4.5"
Fixes#12881.
This also fixes expressions like "ConditionKernelVersion=>" which would
evaluate as true.
Originally the description of conditions was brief, so it was acceptable
to put this part at the end. But now we have a myriad conditions, and
this crucial bit of information is easy to miss.
According to the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard, "The /usr/local hierarchy is for use by the system administrator when installing software locally. It needs to be safe from being overwritten when the system software is updated". So it should not be used by installed packages.
The "include" files had type "book" for some raeason. I don't think this
is meaningful. Let's just use the same everywhere.
$ perl -i -0pe 's^..DOCTYPE (book|refentry) PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.[25]//EN"\s+"http^<!DOCTYPE refentry PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.5//EN"\n "http^gms' man/*.xml
No need to waste space, and uniformity is good.
$ perl -i -0pe 's|\n+<!--\s*SPDX-License-Identifier: LGPL-2.1..\s*-->|\n<!-- SPDX-License-Identifier: LGPL-2.1+ -->|gms' man/*.xml

time-out
n 1: a brief suspension of play; "each team has two time-outs left"
From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (18 March 2015) [foldoc]:
timeout
A period of time after which an error condition is raised if
some event has not occured. A common example is sending a
message. If the receiver does not acknowledge the message
within some preset timeout period, a transmission error is
assumed to have occured.
The current use of literal + replaceable is pretty ugly as it usually
ends up with cgroup_disable= rendered in quotes, which looks really
weird, and this doesn't conform with others of a similar type (for
example, the earlier `DefaultDependencies=no` discussion in the same
file.
The way this is used drifted a bit from the original intent. Let's update
the description and add some examples to inspire people to texts that look
less bad during initial boot.
In the documentation for ConditionXYZ= we claimed that AssertXYZ= would
have an effect on unit state (which is wrong), while at the
documentation for AssertXYZ= we said it only has an effect on the job,
but not the unit (which is right). Let's fix this contradiction, and
only claim the latter.
Also, fix a couple of other things (for example, stop talking about a
"failure state", but let's just expressly called it "the 'failed' state",
as that's the actual name of that state.
Finally, let's emphasize again when the conditions/assertions are
executed, and that they hence are not useful to conditionalize deps.
Fixes: #10433
