Build option "link-timesyncd-shared" to build a statically linked
systemd-timesyncd by using
-Dlink-udev-shared=false -Dlink-timesyncd-shared=false
on systems with full systemd stack except systemd-timesyncd, such
as RHEL/CentOS 8.
Fixes systemd build in Fedora rawhide.
The old ldsdir option is not useful, because both the directory and the
file name changed. Let's remove the option and try to autodetect the file
name. If this turns out to be not enough, a new option to simply specify
the full path to the file can be added.

This partially reverts db11487d10 (the logic to
calculate the correct value is removed, we always use the same setting as for
the system manager). Distributions have an easy mechanism to override this if
they wish.
I think making this configurable is better, because different distros clearly
want different defaults here, and making this configurable is nice and clean.
If we don't make it configurable, distros which either have to carry patches,
or what would be worse, rely on some other configuration mechanism, like
/etc/profile. Those other solutions do not apply everywhere (they usually
require the shell to be used at some point), so it is better if we provide
a nice way to override the default.
Fixes #13469.
As discussed on systemd-devel [1], in Fedora we get lots of abrt reports
about the watchdog firing [2], but 100% of them seem to be caused by resource
starvation in the machine, and never actual deadlocks in the services being
monitored. Killing the services not only does not improve anything, but it
makes the resource starvation worse, because the service needs cycles to restart,
and coredump processing is also fairly expensive. This adds a configuration option
to allow the value to be changed. If the setting is not set, there is no change.
My plan is to set it to some ridiculusly high value, maybe 1h, to catch cases
where a service is actually hanging.

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

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'.
