This patch introduces the systemd pstore service which will archive the
contents of the Linux persistent storage filesystem, pstore, to other storage,
thus preserving the existing information contained in the pstore, and clearing
pstore storage for future error events.
Linux provides a persistent storage file system, pstore[1], that can store
error records when the kernel dies (or reboots or powers-off). These records in
turn can be referenced to debug kernel problems (currently the kernel stuffs
the tail of the dmesg, which also contains a stack backtrace, into pstore).
The pstore file system supports a variety of backends that map onto persistent
storage, such as the ACPI ERST[2, Section 18.5 Error Serialization] and UEFI
variables[3 Appendix N Common Platform Error Record]. The pstore backends
typically offer a relatively small amount of persistent storage, e.g. 64KiB,
which can quickly fill up and thus prevent subsequent kernel crashes from
recording errors. Thus there is a need to monitor and extract the pstore
contents so that future kernel problems can also record information in the
pstore.
The pstore service is independent of the kdump service. In cloud environments
specifically, host and guest filesystems are on remote filesystems (eg. iSCSI
or NFS), thus kdump relies [implicitly and/or explicitly] upon proper operation
of networking software *and* hardware *and* infrastructure. Thus it may not be
possible to capture a kernel coredump to a file since writes over the network
may not be possible.
The pstore backend, on the other hand, is completely local and provides a path
to store error records which will survive a reboot and aid in post-mortem
debugging.
Usage Notes:
This tool moves files from /sys/fs/pstore into /var/lib/systemd/pstore.
To enable kernel recording of error records into pstore, one must either pass
crash_kexec_post_notifiers[4] to the kernel command line or enable via 'echo Y
> /sys/module/kernel/parameters/crash_kexec_post_notifiers'. This option
invokes the recording of errors into pstore *before* an attempt to kexec/kdump
on a kernel crash.
Optionally, to record reboots and shutdowns in the pstore, one can either pass
the printk.always_kmsg_dump[4] to the kernel command line or enable via 'echo Y >
/sys/module/printk/parameters/always_kmsg_dump'. This option enables code on the
shutdown path to record information via pstore.
This pstore service is a oneshot service. When run, the service invokes
systemd-pstore which is a tool that performs the following:
- reads the pstore.conf configuration file
- collects the lists of files in the pstore (eg. /sys/fs/pstore)
- for certain file types (eg. dmesg) a handler is invoked
- for all other files, the file is moved from pstore
- In the case of dmesg handler, final processing occurs as such:
- files processed in reverse lexigraphical order to faciliate
reconstruction of original dmesg
- the filename is examined to determine which dmesg it is a part
- the file is appended to the reconstructed dmesg
For example, the following pstore contents:
root@vm356:~# ls -al /sys/fs/pstore
total 0
drwxr-x--- 2 root root 0 May 9 09:50 .

Configuration file:
The pstore.conf configuration file has four settings, described below.
- Storage : one of "none", "external", or "journal". With "none", this
tool leaves the contents of pstore untouched. With "external", the
contents of the pstore are moved into the /var/lib/systemd/pstore,
as well as logged into the journal. With "journal", the contents of
the pstore are recorded only in the systemd journal. The default is
"external".
- Unlink : is a boolean. When "true", the default, then files in the
pstore are removed once processed. When "false", processing of the
pstore occurs normally, but the pstore files remain.

Some distros install nologin as /usr/sbin/nologin, others as
/sbin/nologin.
Since we can't really on merged-usr everywhere (where the path wouldn't
matter), make the path build time configurable via -Dnologin-path=.
Closes#13028
Not everybody has those dirs in the filesystem (and they don't need to).
When creating an installation package using $DESTDIR, it is easy enough to
remove or ignore those directories, but if installing into a real root, it
is ugly to create and remove them. Let's add an option so people can skip
it if they want.
Inspired by #12930.
This makes the default build much quicker. If people are building systemd for
packaging or actual installation, they probably need to set some more options
anyway (-Ddns-servers=, -Dntp-servers=), so adding -Dman=true is not a big
burden.
For CIs configured locally, -Dman=true is added to restore status quo ante.
Cloudflare public DNS service is currently the fastest one according to
https://www.dnsperf.com/#!dns-resolvers. Why not improve the experience for
systemd users using this as a default fallback nameserver?
This will be useful when building distro packages, because we can set the
version string to the rpm/dpkg/whatever version string, and getter reports
from end users.
This is useful for distributions, where the stability of interface names should
be preseved after an upgrade of systemd. So when some specific release of the
distro is made available, systemd defaults to the latest & greatest naming
scheme, and subsequent updates set the same default. This default may still
be overriden through the kernel and env var options.
A special value "latest" is also allowed. Without a specific name, it is harder
to verride from meson. In case of 'combo' options, meson reads the default
during the initial configuration, and "remembers" this choice. When systemd is
updated, old build/ directories could keep the old default, which would be
annoying. Hence, "latest" is introduced to make it explicit, yet follow the
upstream. This is actually useful for the user too, because it may be used
as an override, without having to actually specify a version.
After discussions with kernel folks, a system with memcg really
shouldn't need extra hard limits on file descriptors anymore, as they
are properly accounted for by memcg anyway. Hence, let's bump these
values to their maximums.
This also adds a build time option to turn thiss off, to cover those
users who do not want to use memcg.
The justification is the same as for -Dvalgrind: setting config in
meson in this way is easier, because when the value is changed stuff
that should be rebuilt is rebuilt.
cross building systemd to arm64 presently fails, because the build
system uses plain gcc and plain ld (build architecture compiler and
linker respectively) for building src/boot/efi. These values come from
the efi-cc and efi-ld options respectively. It rather should be using
host tools here.
Fixes: b710072da4 ("add support for building efi modules")
This provides basic OpenSSL support without optimizations like TCP Fast Open and TLS Session Tickets.
Notice only a single SSL library can be enabled at a time and therefore journald functions provided by GnuTLS will be disabled when using OpenSSL.
Fixes#9531
This bumps the minimum required version of meson to 0.45 and
python to 3.5, as integer type option is supported since meson-0.45
and meson-0.45 requires python-3.5.
This adds -Dnss-resolve= and -Dnss-mymachines= meson options.
By using this option, e.g., resolved can be built without nss-resolve.
When no nss modules are built, then test-nss is neither built.
Also, This changes the option name -Dmyhostname= to -Dnss-myhostname=
for consistency to other nss related options.
Closes#9596.
Back in 2012 the project was renamed, see the release notes for v 0.105
[https://cgit.freedesktop.org/polkit/tree/NEWS#n754]. Let's update our
documentation and comments to do the same. Referring to PolicyKit is confusing
to users because at the time the polkit api changed too, and we support the new
version. I updated NEWS too, since all the references to PolicyKit there were
added after the rename.
"PolicyKit" is unchanged in various URLs and method call names.
Systemctl is special because it is required for many tasks that may need to
be performed when the system is not fully configured and/or partially
broken:
1. Installing/Uninstalling services during OS installs and upgrades
2. Shutting down the system
Therefore reduce the number of dependencies that systemctl pulls in, by
not linking to systemd-shared. This brings a bit of resilience to
systemctl (and its aliases shutdown, reboot, etc), by linking against
less external libraries.
Because this extra resilience comes at a cost of approximately 580 KB
extra space, this is done behind a meson build option.
This adds a small service "systemd-portabled" and a matching client
"portablectl", which implement the "portable service" concept.
The daemon implements the actual operations, is PolicyKit-enabled and is
activated on demand with exit-on-idle.
Both the daemon and the client are an optional build artifact, enabled
by default rhough.
Configuration through environment variable is inconvenient with meson, because
they cannot be convieniently changed and/or are not preserved during
reconfiguration (https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/1503).
This adds -Dvalgrind=true/false, which has the advantage that it can be set
at any time with meson configure -Dvalgrind=... and ninja will rebuild targets
as necessary. Additional minor advantages are better consistency with the
options for hashmap debugging, and typo avoidance with '#if' instead of '#ifdef'.
Files which are installed as-is (any .service and other unit files, .conf
files, .policy files, etc), are left as is. My assumption is that SPDX
identifiers are not yet that well known, so it's better to retain the
extended header to avoid any doubt.
I also kept any copyright lines. We can probably remove them, but it'd nice to
obtain explicit acks from all involved authors before doing that.
Follow-up for ba7f4ae617.
By default, we detect if the real root has a separate /usr/sbin directory, but
this can be overrides with -Dsplit-bin=true|false. The check assumes that
/usr/sbin is split if it is not a symlink, so it'll return a false negative
with some more complicated setups. But that's OK, in those cases this should be
configured explicitly.
This will copy the structure of the directories in the root file system to
$DESTDIR. If a directory is a directory in $DESTDIR but a symlink in the root
file system, this script will fail. This means that it's not possible to reuse
a $DESTDIR from between ba7f4ae61 and this patch.
Add a new -Dllvm-fuzz=true option that can be used to build against
libFuzzer and update the oss-fuzz script to work outside of the
oss-fuzz build environment.
The fuzzers will be used by oss-fuzz to automatically and
continuously fuzz systemd.
This commit includes the build tooling necessary to build fuzz
targets, and a fuzzer for the DNS packet parser.
Currently there is no way to prevent tests from building using meson.
This introduces two problems:
1) It adds a extra 381 files to compile.
2) One of these tests explicitly requires libgcrypt to be built even if systemd
is not using it.
3) It adds C++ to the requirements to build systemd.
When cross-compiling, this is uneccessary.
On a typical system running systemd, the telinit in PATH is very likely to be a symlink
to systemctl. Setting TELINIT to this may result in an infinite recursion if telinit is called
and sd_booted() == 0. This may commonly occur in a chroot environment.
Bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/642724
[zj:
The path was originally hardcoded as "/lib/upstart/telinit", but was made configurable without
changing the default in 4ad61fd180. Then the default was
changed to `/lib/sysvinit/telinit` in abaaabf40a. Then it
started being autodetected when meson support was added in
5c23128dab. This patch restores the behaviour that was
implemented in configure.ac at the time of its removal.]
To allow better integration with distributions requiring an explicitly
set gid for the `users` group, provide the new `-Dusers-gid` option to
set to a new numeric value.
In the absence of a specified gid, we'll fallback to the default existing
behaviour of `-` as the gid value, to automatically assign the next available
gid on the system.
So far I avoided adding license headers to meson files, but they are pretty
big and important and should carry license headers like everything else.
I added my own copyright, even though other people modified those files too.
But this is mostly symbolic, so I hope that's OK.
- Remove the uaccess tag from /dev/dri/renderD*.
- Change the owning group from video to render.
- Change default mode to 0666.
- Add an option to allow users to set the access mode for these devices at
compile time.
This changes the symbolic name for the default gateway from "gateway" to
"_gateway". A new configuration option -Dcompat-gateway-hostname=true|false
is added. If it is set, the old name is also supported, but the new name
is used as the canonical name in either case. This is intended as a temporary
measure to make the transition easier, and the option should be removed
after a few releases, at which point only the new name will be used.
The old "gateway" name mostly works OK, but hasn't gained widespread acceptance
because of the following (potential) conflicts:
- it is completely legal to have a host called "gateway"
- there is no guarantee that "gateway" will not be registered as a TLD, even
though this currently seems unlikely. (Even then, there would be no
conflict except for the case when the top-level domain itself was being resolved.
The "gateway" or "_gateway" labels have only special meaning when the
whole name consists of a single label, so resolution of any subdomain
of the hypothetical gateway. TLD would still work OK. )
Moving to "_gateway" avoids those issues because underscores are not allowed
in host names (RFC 1123, §2.1) and avoids potential conflicts with local or
global names.
v2:
- simplify the logic to hardcode "_gateway" and allow
-Dcompat-gateway-hostname=true as a temporary measure.
This is just the meson part, no functional change.
Use meson -D slow-tests=yes to set the default,
or SYSTEMD_SLOW_TESTS=yes build/test-foobar for just one test.
Setting the default is more useful for installed tests.
libidn2 2.0.0 supports IDNA2008, in contrast to libidn which supports IDNA2003.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1449145
From that bug report:
Internationalized domain names exist for quite some time (IDNA2003), although
the protocols describing them have evolved in an incompatible way (IDNA2008).
These incompatibilities will prevent applications written for IDNA2003 to
access certain problematic domain names defined with IDNA2008, e.g., faß.de is
translated to domain xn--fa-hia.de with IDNA2008, while in IDNA2003 it is
translated to fass.de domain. That not only causes incompatibility problems,
but may be used as an attack vector to redirect users to different web sites.
v2:
- keep libidn support
- require libidn2 >= 2.0.0
v3:
- keep dns_name_apply_idna caller dumb, and keep the #ifdefs inside of the
function.
- use both ±IDN and ±IDN2 in the version string
Some distros (openSUSE) don't have group shadow support enabled. This can lead
to the following error:
# systemd-sysusers
Creating group foofoo with gid 478.
# systemd-sysusers
# groupdel foofoo
# systemd-sysusers
Creating group foofoo with gid 478.
Failed to write files: File exists
This patch adds --disable-gshadow option to configure. If used,
systemd-sysvusers won't consider /etc/gshadow.
Also detect libgpg-error. Require both to be present for HAVE_CRYPT,
even though libgpg-error is only used in src/resolve. If one is available,
the other should be too, so it doesn't seem worth the trouble to make two
separate conditions.
This makes the helper binaries significantly bigger (in some cases, the final
size depends on link options and optimization level), and is only useful for
distributions which want to provide the option to install udev without systemd.
As the linking is improved, the difference between the columns might shrink,
but it's unlikely that linking libshared statically could ever be more
efficient.
E.g. with -O0, no -flto:
(static) (shared)
src/udev/ata_id 999176 85696
src/udev/cdrom_id 1024344 111656
src/udev/collect 990344 81280
src/udev/scsi_id 1023592 115656
src/udev/v4l_id 811736 17744
When linked dynamically, install_rpath must be specified, so add that.
This doesn't feel as natural, but is more consistent with the boolean options
which require true/false, and allows setting of options without knowing of
which type the option is.
This is a very straightforward conversion of the rules in Makefile.am.
Generated objects (on arm64) are identical.
The only difference in executed commands is that automake uses ld -m
elf_x86_64, without us specifying the -m option anywhere. I suspect that
using the default for the given linker should be OK, so it's fine to just
skip it.
Instead of a separate target as with make, it is decided at configure time
whether to install tests as part of the install target. The effect should be
the same.
Tests can be run with 'ninja-build test' or using 'mesontest'.
'-Dtests=unsafe' can be used to include the "unsafe" tests in the
test suite, same as with autotools.
v2:
- use more conf.get guards are optional components
- declare deps on generated headers for test-{af,arphrd,cap}-list
v3:
- define environment for tests
Most test don't need this, but to be consistent with autotools-based build, and
to avoid questions which tests need it and which don't, set the same environment
for all tests.
v4:
- rework test generation
Use a list of lists to define each test. This way we can reduce the
boilerplate somewhat, although the test listings are still pretty verbose. We
can also move the definitions of the tests to the subdirs. Unfortunately some
subdirs are included earlier than some of the libraries that test binaries
are linked to. So just dump all definitions of all tests that cannot be
defined earlier into src/test. The `executable` definitions are still at the
top level, so the binaries are compiled into the build root.
v5:
- tag test-dnssec-complex as manual
v6:
- fix HAVE_LIBZ typo
- add missing libgobject/libgio defs
- mark test-qcow2 as manual
This provides functionality similar to the ./configure --disable-manpages
switch. Man pages are built by default (if xsltproc is found), html pages
are not. Those default can be changed with -Dman=no, -Dhtml=yes/auto.
It is still possible to build one or the either, even if not configured, with
ninja-build man/man and ninja-build man/html.
v2:
- obey conditionals in index/directives list
It's crucial that we can build systemd using VS2010!
... er, wait, no, that's not the official reason. We need to shed old systems
by requring python 3! Oh, no, it's something else. Maybe we need to throw out
345 years of knowlege accumulated in autotools? Whatever, this new thing is
cool and shiny, let's use it.
This is not complete, I'm throwing it out here for your amusement and critique.
- rules for sd-boot are missing. Those might be quite complicated.
- rules for tests are missing too. Those are probably quite simple and
repetitive, but there's lots of them.
- it's likely that I didn't get all the conditions right, I only tested "full"
compilation where most deps are provided and nothing is disabled.
- busname.target and all .busname units are skipped on purpose.
Otherwise, installation into $DESTDIR has the same list of files and the
autoconf install, except for .la files.
It'd be great if people had a careful look at all the library linking options.
I added stuff until things compiled, and in the end there's much less linking
then in the old system. But it seems that there's still a lot of unnecessary
deps.
meson has a `shared_module` statement, which sounds like something appropriate
for our nss and pam modules. Unfortunately, I couldn't get it to work. For the
nss modules, we need an .so version of '2', but `shared_module` disallows the
version argument. For the pam module, it also didn't work, I forgot the reason.
The handling of .m4 and .in and .m4.in files is rather awkward. It's likely
that this could be simplified. If make support is ever dropped, I think it'd
make sense to switch to a different templating system so that two different
languages and not required, which would make everything simpler yet.
v2:
- use get_pkgconfig_variable
- use sh not bash
- use add_project_arguments
v3:
- drop required:true and fix progs/prog typo
v4:
- use find_library('bz2')
- add TTY_GID definition
- define __SANE_USERSPACE_TYPES__
- use join_paths(prefix, ...) is used on all paths to make them all absolute
v5:
- replace all declare_dependency's with []
- add more conf.get guards around optional components
v6:
- drop -pipe, -Wall which are the default in meson
- use compiler.has_function() and compiler.has_header_symbol instead of the
hand-rolled checks.
- fix duplication in 'liblibsystemd' library name
- use the right .sym file for pam_systemd
- rename 'compiler' to 'cc': shorter, and more idiomatic.
v7:
- use ENABLE_ENVIRONMENT_D not HAVE_ENVIRONMENT_D
- rename prefix to prefixdir, rootprefix to rootprefixdir
("prefix" is too common of a name and too easy to overwrite by mistake)
- wrap more stuff with conf.get('ENABLE...') == 1
- use rootprefix=='/' and rootbindir as install_dir, to fix paths under
split-usr==true.
v8:
- use .split() also for src/coredump. Now everything is consistent ;)
- add rootlibdir option and use it on the libraries that require it
v9:
- indentation
v10:
- fix check for qrencode and libaudit
v11:
- unify handling of executable paths, provide options for all progs
This makes the meson build behave slightly differently than the
autoconf-based one, because we always first try to find the executable in the
filesystem, and fall back to the default. I think different handling of
loadkeys, setfont, and telinit was just a historical accident.
In addition to checking in $PATH, also check /usr/sbin/, /sbin for programs.
In Fedora $PATH includes /usr/sbin, (and /sbin is is a symlink to /usr/sbin),
but in Debian, those directories are not included in the path.
C.f. https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/1576.
- call all the options 'xxx-path' for clarity.
- sort man/rules/meson.build properly so it's stable
