This file doesn't document features of systemd, but is more a of a
general description that generalizes/modernizes FHS. As such, the items
listed in it weren't "added" in systemd versions, they simply reflect
general concepts independent of any specific systemd version. hence
let's drop this misleading and confusing version info.
Or in other words, the man page currently claims under "/usr/": "Added
in version 215." – Which of course is rubbish, the directory existed
since time began.
This also rebreaks all paragaphs this touches.
No content changes.

Resolves https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/31637.
lld-18 does the section setup differently than older versions. There is a bunch
of ordering chagnes, but it also inserts the following:
Sections:
Idx Name Size VMA LMA File off Algn
...
9 .got 00000000 00000000000283c0 00000000000283c0 000283c0 2**3
CONTENTS, ALLOC, LOAD, DATA
10 .relro_padding 00000c40 00000000000283c0 00000000000283c0 000283c0 2**0
ALLOC
11 .data 00000024 00000000000293c0 00000000000293c0 000283c0 2**4
CONTENTS, ALLOC, LOAD, DATA
...
This causes a problem for us, because we try to map the .got to .rodata,
and the subsequent .data to .data, and round down the VMA to the nearest
page, which causes the PE sections to overlap.
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/66042 adds .relro_padding to make
sure that the RELRO segment is properly write protected and allocated. For our
binaries, the .got section is empty, so we can skip it safely, and the
.relro_padding section is not useful once .got has been dropped.
We don't expect .got sections, but they are apparently inserted on i386 and
aarch64 builds. Emit a warning until we figure out why they are there.

RuntimeError is documented as "Unspecified run-time error". It doesn't make
much sense for Python. (It originated in Java, where exceptions that can be
thrown by a function are declared in the function signature. All code calling
such a function must either explicitly catch all possible exception types, or
allow them to propagate by listing them in its own exception type list. This is
nice in theory, but in practice very annoying. Especially during development,
when the list of possible exception types is not finalized, we would end up
adding and removing exceptions to functions signatures all the time. Also for
code which is designed to call functions recursively, we would soon end up with
all functions declaring all possible exception types… To avoid this, people
would quite often do fake handling with a block that either prints and ignores
an exception, or has just a comment like "fix me later", or even nothing. This
often lead to people forgetting to adjust this later on and production code
containing such constructs. An escape hatch was opened with RuntimeException and
its subclasses, which do not need to be pre-declared. Various memory-related
exceptions were added as subclasses of RuntimeException. But later on, people
starting using this to not to have to declare all exception types everywhere.)
In Python, exceptions do no have to be pre-declared, and for code which just
encounters a failure, we should raise a specific exception type. The catch-all
class for unexpected input is ValueError.
For https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/31637:
BadSectionError: Section '.data' @0x28000 overlaps previous section @0x28000+0x300=@0x28300
Also, exception strings should not contain trailing periods, because they are
often embedded in sentences.

For tables which represent binary data structures, readability is greatly
enhanced if the part which shows field size and type is aligned. This follows
the usual style for tables in the rest of the systemd codebase.
Also, use the same style for functions: if the function signature is too long
to fit in one line, put each parameter on a separate line.
Also, for comprehension expressions, if they are split, use the usual Python
style.
Also, drop format annotations, since the code isn't automatically formatted
anymore, and automatic formatting is neither feasible nor a goal for the
systemd codebase.

meson's `cpp_args` option is defined only if it detects a C++ compiler,
otherwise we get an error:
../test/fuzz/meson.build:56:28: ERROR: Tried to access unknown option 'cpp_args'.
Prompted by #29972, because right now it's practically impossible to pass
-fno-sanitize=function to the fuzzer targets without some extensive
sed'ing.
This splits both c_args and cpp_args to separate arguments for
tools/meson-build.sh, because the other way would be to use `eval`, so
the space-separated but quoted strings passed to these options are not
split where they shouldn't, and I'd rather avoid using `eval` if
possible.
Also, this switches the positional arguments we pass to `meson setup`,
as they were in incorrect order (docs say it should be buildir followed
by sourcedir); meson is apparently clever enough to figure this out and
switch the arguments around if necessary, so it didn't complain.
When building with mkosi I would get the following:
[1/477] Generating version.h with a custom command
fatal: detected dubious ownership in repository at '/work/src'
To add an exception for this directory, call:
git config --global --add safe.directory /work/src
and then the tag would be generated as 'v254-'. This is obviously some problem
with the setup, but we should handle this gracefully. Let's fall back to 'v254'
instead.
In the case where we have a repo but no tags, use --dirty=^ too, as in the case
with tags.
I tested four cases:
- normal checkout
- checkout with .git removed
- checkout with .git chowned to root
- checkout wiht all tags removed
This changes the doc-sync meson target from a simple rsync command to a
script that:
* puts the documentation in a subdirectory according to the version
* injects a bit of javascript to add a drop-down to switch between versions
* updates an index.json file with the newly uploaded version
* keeps the latest/ directory up to date with the latest version
* supports a --no-latest switch to be used when uploading older versions
This adds a new script tools/check-version-history.py and a corresponding
test when building in developer mode. It checks manpages (except dbus
documentation which is handled by update-dbus-docs) for missing version
history information.
It also adds ignore lists based on version 183 (the version that our version
annotations go back to). These can be augmented if we want to ignore other
elements if it doesn't make sense for them to have version annotations.
This makes the special PE sections available again in our output EFI
images.
Since the compiler provides no way to mark a section as not allocated,
we use GNU assembler syntax to emit the sections instead. This ensures
the section data isn't emitted twice as load segments will only contain
allocating input sections.
The main reason we need to apply a whole lot of logic to the section
conversion logic is because PE sections have to be aligned to the page
size (although, currently not even EDK2 enforces this). The process of
achieving this with a linker script is fraught with errors, they are a
pain to set up correctly and suck in general. They are also not
supported by mold, which requires us to forcibly use bfd, which also
means that linker feature detection is easily at odds as meson has a
differnt idea of what linker is in use.
Instead of forcing a manual ELF segment layout with a linker script we
just let the linker do its thing. We then simply copy/concatenate the
sections while observing proper page boundaries.
Note that we could just copy the ELF load *segments* directly and
achieve the same result. Doing this manually allows us to strip sections
we don't need at runtime like the dynamic linking information (the
elf2efi conversion is effectively the dynamic loader).
Important sections like .sbat that we emit directly from code will
currently *not* be exposed as individual PE sections as they are
contained within the ELF segments. A future commit will fix this.
This also adds an ignore list, which currently contains the whole API as of
version 250, since that's the base we used for dbus interfaces.

This conceptually reverts e95acdfe1d3a790e18617bb992a712b34f41800d,
but the actual contents of the script are taken from the command invocation
in meson with all the updates that happened in the meantime.
One small change is that I replaced () by {}: this avoids one subprocess spawn.
People were worried about the cost of vcs_tag(), and this microoptimization may
help a bit. I measured the speed on machine, and noop rebuilds are still about
100–120 ms.
The logic is entirely moved to the script. This makes the meson config simpler
and also makes it easier to use it externally.
The script is needed for in-place rpm builds, see README.build-in-place.md [1],
where it is invoked from the spec file to determine the project version.

Now that we use meson feature options for our dependencies, we can just
rely on '--auto-features=disabled' to do the same. One benefit of this
is that specific features can still be force-enabled by overriding it
with the appropriate '-Dfeature=enabled' flag.
The two remaining uses for skip-deps can simply rely on their default
logic that sets the value to 'no' when the dependency is disabled.
Many Chromium projects have moved from 'master' to 'main', where
'master' is no longer updated. Point at HEAD instead, which should
always represent the default branch.
I don't actually rerun/regenerate the database, since I don't really run
systemd environments to test that update on.
