This adds a new sd_pid_get_cgroup() call to sd-login which may be used to query the control path of a process. This is useful for programs when making use of delegation units, in order to figure out which subtree has been delegated. In light of the unified control group hierarchy this is finally safe to do, hence let's add a proper API for it, to make it easier to use this.

<title>Description</title>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_pid_get_session()</function> may be used to
|
||
determine the login session identifier of a process identified by
|
||
the specified process identifier. The session identifier is a
|
||
short string, suitable for usage in file system paths. Note that
|
||
not all processes are part of a login session (e.g. system service
|
||
processes, user processes that are shared between multiple
|
||
sessions of the same user, or kernel threads). For processes not
|
||
being part of a login session this function will fail with
|
||
-ENODATA. The returned string needs to be freed with the libc
|
||
<citerefentry
|
||
project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>free</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
||
call after use.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_pid_get_unit()</function> may be used to
|
||
determine the systemd system unit (i.e. system service or scope
|
||
unit) identifier of a process identified by the specified PID. The
|
||
unit name is a short string, suitable for usage in file system
|
||
paths. Note that not all processes are part of a system
|
||
unit/service (e.g. user processes, or kernel threads). For
|
||
processes not being part of a systemd system unit this function
|
||
will fail with -ENODATA (More specifically: this call will not
|
||
work for kernel threads.) The returned string needs to be freed
|
||
with the libc <citerefentry
|
||
project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>free</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
||
call after use.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_pid_get_user_unit()</function> may be used to
|
||
determine the systemd user unit (i.e. user service or scope unit)
|
||
identifier of a process identified by the specified PID. This is
|
||
similar to <function>sd_pid_get_unit()</function> but applies to
|
||
user units instead of system units.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_pid_get_owner_uid()</function> may be used to
|
||
determine the Unix UID (user identifier) of the owner of the
|
||
session of a process identified the specified PID. Note that this
|
||
function will succeed for user processes which are shared between
|
||
multiple login sessions of the same user, where
|
||
<function>sd_pid_get_session()</function> will fail. For processes
|
||
not being part of a login session and not being a shared process
|
||
of a user this function will fail with -ENODATA.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_pid_get_machine_name()</function> may be used
|
||
to determine the name of the VM or container is a member of. The
|
||
machine name is a short string, suitable for usage in file system
|
||
paths. The returned string needs to be freed with the libc
|
||
<citerefentry
|
||
project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>free</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
||
call after use. For processes not part of a VM or containers this
|
||
function fails with -ENODATA.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_pid_get_slice()</function> may be used to
|
||
determine the slice unit the process is a member of. See
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.slice</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
||
for details about slices. The returned string needs to be freed
|
||
with the libc
|
||
<citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>free</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
||
call after use.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>Similar, <function>sd_pid_get_user_slice()</function>
|
||
returns the user slice (as managed by the user's systemd instance)
|
||
of a process.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_pid_get_cgroup()</function> returns the control
|
||
group path of the specified process, relative to the root of the
|
||
hierarchy. Returns the path without trailing slash, except for
|
||
processes located in the root control group, where "/" is
|
||
returned. To find the actual control group path in the file system
|
||
the returned path needs to be prefixed with
|
||
<filename>/sys/fs/cgroup/</filename> (if the unified control group
|
||
setup is used), or
|
||
<filename>/sys/fs/cgroup/<replaceable>HIERARCHY</replaceable>/</filename>
|
||
(if the legacy multi-hierarchy control group setup is used).</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>If the <varname>pid</varname> parameter of any of these
|
||
functions is passed as 0, the operation is executed for the
|
||
calling process.</para>

<function>sd_peer_get_cgroup()</function> calls operate similar to
|
||
their PID counterparts, but operate on a connected AF_UNIX socket
|
||
and retrieve information about the connected peer process. Note
|
||
that these fields are retrieved via <filename>/proc</filename>,
|
||
and hence are not suitable for authorization purposes, as they are
|
||
subject to races.</para>
