This option is only used on reboot, not on other types of shutdown
modes, so it is misleading.
Keep the old name working for backward compatibility, but remove it
from the documentation.
Rather than always enabling the shutdown WD on kexec, which might be
dangerous in case the kernel driver and/or the hardware implementation
does not reset the wd on kexec, add a new timer, disabled by default,
to let users optionally enable the shutdown WD on kexec separately
from the runtime and reboot ones. Advise in the documentation to
also use the runtime WD in conjunction with it.
Fixes: a637d0f9ec ("core: set shutdown watchdog on kexec too")
Make possible to set NUMA allocation policy for manager. Manager's
policy is by default inherited to all forked off processes. However, it
is possible to override the policy on per-service basis. Currently we
support, these policies: default, prefer, bind, interleave, local.
See man 2 set_mempolicy for details on each policy.
Overall NUMA policy actually consists of two parts. Policy itself and
bitmask representing NUMA nodes where is policy effective. Node mask can
be specified using related option, NUMAMask. Default mask can be
overwritten on per-service level.
This makes the handling of this option match what we do in unit files. I think
consistency is important here. (As it happens, it is the only option in
system.conf that is "non-atomic", i.e. where there's a list of things which can
be split over multiple assignments. All other options are single-valued, so
there's no issue of how to handle multiple assignments.)
When shooting down a service with SIGABRT the user might want to have a
much longer stop timeout than on regular stops/shutdowns. Especially in
the face of short stop timeouts the time might not be sufficient to
write huge core dumps before the service is killed.
This commit adds a dedicated (Default)TimeoutAbortSec= timer that is
used when stopping a service via SIGABRT. In all other cases the
existing TimeoutStopSec= is used. The timer value is unset by default
to skip the special handling and use TimeoutStopSec= for state
'stop-watchdog' to keep the old behaviour.
If the service is in state 'stop-watchdog' and the service should be
stopped explicitly we still go to 'stop-sigterm' and re-apply the usual
TimeoutStopSec= timeout.
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
We had "SYSTEM MANAGER DIRECTIVES" which was a misnomer already, because
it also listed user manager stuff. Let's make this a more general section
and move the items for other services there too (from "MISCELANENOUS").
Updating due to phrase "Defaults to DefaultTimeoutStartSec= from the manager configuration file, except when Type=oneshot is used, in which case the timeout is disabled by default (see systemd-system.conf)" from [0] https://github.com/systemd/systemd/blob/master/man/systemd.service.xml
We now don't enable the CPU controller just for CPU accounting if we are
on 4.15+ and using pure unified hierarchy, as this is provided
externally to the CPU controller. This makes CPUAccounting=yes
essentially free, so enabling it by default when it's cheap seems like a
good idea.
This removes the ability to configure which cgroup controllers to mount
together. Instead, we'll now hardcode that "cpu" and "cpuacct" are
mounted together as well as "net_cls" and "net_prio".
The concept of mounting controllers together has no future as it does
not exist to cgroupsv2. Moreover, the current logic is systematically
broken, as revealed by the discussions in #10507. Also, we surveyed Red
Hat customers and couldn't find a single user of the concept (which
isn't particularly surprising, as it is broken...)
This reduced the (already way too complex) cgroup handling for us, since
we now know whenever we make a change to a cgroup for one controller to
which other controllers it applies.
The &MEMORY_ACCOUNTING_DEFAULT; resolves to "yes" or "no" while the rest
of the paragraph talked about "on" and "off". Let's adjust this and
stick to "yes" and "no"...
Quite frankly I think it's not a particularly good idea to change the
docs based configuration changes... THis can only be incomplete, and the
wording is still very awkward since we repeat the same sentence twice.
Docbook styles required those to be present, even though the templates that we
use did not show those names anywhere. But something changed semi-recently (I
would suspect docbook templates, but there was only a minor version bump in
recent years, and the changelog does not suggest anything related), and builds
now work without those entries. Let's drop this dead weight.
Tested with F26-F29, debian unstable.
$ perl -i -0pe 's/\s*<authorgroup>.*<.authorgroup>//gms' man/*xml
These lines are generally out-of-date, incomplete and unnecessary. With
SPDX and git repository much more accurate and fine grained information
about licensing and authorship is available, hence let's drop the
per-file copyright notice. Of course, removing copyright lines of others
is problematic, hence this commit only removes my own lines and leaves
all others untouched. It might be nicer if sooner or later those could
go away too, making git the only and accurate source of authorship
information.
This part of the copyright blurb stems from the GPL use recommendations:
https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.en.html
The concept appears to originate in times where version control was per
file, instead of per tree, and was a way to glue the files together.
Ultimately, we nowadays don't live in that world anymore, and this
information is entirely useless anyway, as people are very welcome to
copy these files into any projects they like, and they shouldn't have to
change bits that are part of our copyright header for that.
hence, let's just get rid of this old cruft, and shorten our codebase a
bit.
We have a common parser, but for the user it might be
completely unobvious that the same general rules apply
to all those files. Let's add a page about the basic syntax
so that the more specific pages don't have to repeat those
details.
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.
After discussions with @htejun it appears it's OK now to enable memory
accounting by default for all units without affecting system performance
too badly. facebook has made good experiences with deploying memory
accounting across their infrastructure.
This hence turns MemoryAccounting= from opt-in to opt-out, similar to
how TasksAccounting= is already handled. The other accounting options
remain off, their performance impact is too big still.
For some certification, it should not be possible to reboot the machine through ctrl-alt-delete. Currently we suggest our customers to mask the ctrl-alt-delete target, but that is obviously not enough.
Patching the keymaps to disable that is really not a way to go for them, because the settings need to be easily checked by some SCAP tools.
As it turns out 512 is max number of tasks per service is hit by too many
applications, hence let's bump it a bit, and make it relative to the system's
maximum number of PIDs. With this change the new default is 15%. At the
kernel's default pids_max value of 32768 this translates to 4915. At machined's
default TasksMax= setting of 16384 this translates to 2457.
Why 15%? Because it sounds like a round number and is close enough to 4096
which I was going for, i.e. an eight-fold increase over the old 512
Summary:
| on the host | in a container
old default | 512 | 512
new default | 4915 | 2457
We generally follow the rule that for time settings we suffix the setting name
with "Sec" to indicate the default unit if none is specified. The only
exception was the rate limiting interval settings. Fix this, and keep the old
names for compatibility.
Do the same for journald's RateLimitInterval= setting
The new parser supports:
<value> - specify both limits to the same value
<soft:hard> - specify both limits
the size or time specific suffixes are supported, for example
LimitRTTIME=1sec
LimitAS=4G:16G
The patch introduces parse_rlimit_range() and rlim type (size, sec,
usec, etc.) specific parsers. No code is duplicated now.
The patch also sync docs for DefaultLimitXXX= and LimitXXX=.
References: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/1769
Let's make things more user-friendly and support for example
LimitAS=16G
rather than force users to always use LimitAS=16106127360.
The change is relevant for options:
[Default]Limit{FSIZE,DATA,STACK,CORE,RSS,AS,MEMLOCK,MSGQUEUE}
The patch introduces config_parse_bytes_limit(), it's the same as
config_parse_limit() but uses parse_size() tu support the suffixes.
Addresses: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/1772
Document support for commas as a separator and possibility of specifying
ranges of CPU indices.
Tested by regenerating the manpages locally and reading them on man.
This introduces a new systemd.crash_reboot=1 kernel command line option
that triggers a reboot after crashing.
This also cleans up crash VT handling. Specifically, it cleans up the
configuration setting, to be between 1..63 or a boolean. This is to
replace the previous logic where "-1" meant disabled. We continue to
accept that setting, but only document the boolean syntax instead.
This also brings the documentation of the default settings in sync with
what actually happens.
The CrashChVT= configuration file setting is renamed to CrashChangeVT=,
following our usual logic of not abbreviating unnecessarily. The old
setting stays support for compat reasons.
Fixes#1300
This adds support for the new "pids" cgroup controller of 4.3 kernels.
It allows accounting the number of tasks in a cgroup and enforcing
limits on it.
This adds two new setting TasksAccounting= and TasksMax= to each unit,
as well as a gloabl option DefaultTasksAccounting=.
This also updated "cgtop" to optionally make use of the new
kernel-provided accounting.
systemctl has been updated to show the number of tasks for each service
if it is available.
This patch also adds correct support for undoing memory limits for units
using a MemoryLimit=infinity syntax. We do the same for TasksMax= now
and hence keep things in sync here.
This did not really work out as we had hoped. Trying to do this upstream
introduced several problems that probably makes it better suited as a
downstream patch after all. At any rate, it is not releaseable in the
current state, so we at least need to revert this before the release.
* by adjusting the path to binaries, but not do the same thing to the
search path we end up with inconsistent man-pages. Adjusting the search
path too would be quite messy, and it is not at all obvious that this is
worth the effort, but at any rate it would have to be done before we
could ship this.
* this means that distributed man-pages does not make sense as they depend
on config options, and for better or worse we are still distributing
man pages, so that is something that definitely needs sorting out before
we could ship with this patch.
* we have long held that split-usr is only minimally supported in order
to boot, and something we hope will eventually go away. So before we start
adding even more magic/effort in order to make this work nicely, we should
probably question if it makes sense at all.
In particular, use /lib/systemd instead of /usr/lib/systemd in distributions
like Debian which still have not adopted a /usr merge setup.
Use XML entities from man/custom-entities.ent to replace configured paths while
doing XSLT processing of the original XML files. There was precedent of some
files (such as systemd.generator.xml) which were already using this approach.
This addresses most of the (manual) fixes from this patch:
http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-systemd/systemd.git/tree/debian/patches/Fix-paths-in-man-pages.patch?h=experimental-220
The idea of using generic XML entities was presented here:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2015-May/032240.html
This patch solves almost all the issues, with the exception of:
- Path to /bin/mount and /bin/umount.
- Generic statements about preference of /lib over /etc.
These will be handled separately by follow up patches.
Tested:
- With default configure settings, ran "make install" to two separate
directories and compared the output to confirm they matched exactly.
- Used a set of configure flags including $CONFFLAGS from Debian:
http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-systemd/systemd.git/tree/debian/rules
Installed the tree and confirmed the paths use /lib/systemd instead of
/usr/lib/systemd and that no other unexpected differences exist.
- Confirmed that `make distcheck` still passes.
For daemons which have a main configuration file, there's
little reason for the administrator to use configuration snippets.
They are useful for packagers which need to override settings, but
we shouldn't advertise that as the main way of configuring those
services.
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=89397
The system start timeout as previously implemented would get confused by
long-running services that are included in the initial system startup
transaction for example by being cron-job-like long-running services
triggered immediately at boot. Such long-running jobs would be subject
to the default 15min timeout, esily triggering it.
Hence, remove this again. In a subsequent commit, introduce per-target
job timeouts instead, that allow us to control these timeouts more
finegrained.
When this system-wide start-up timeout is hit we execute one of the
failure actions already implemented for services that fail.
This should not only be useful on embedded devices, but also on laptops
which have the power-button reachable when the lid is closed. This
devices, when in a backpack might get powered on by accident due to the
easily reachable power button. We want to make sure that the system
turns itself off if it starts up due this after a while.
When the system manages to fully start-up logind will suspend the
machine by default if the lid is closed. However, in some cases we don't
even get as far as logind, and the boot hangs much earlier, for example
because we ask for a LUKS password that nobody ever enters.
Yeah, this is a real-life problem on my Yoga 13, which has one of those
easily accessible power buttons, even if the device is closed.
It is annoying when we have dead links on fd.o.
Add project='man-pages|die-net|archlinux' to <citerefentry>-ies.
In generated html, add external links to
http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man, http://linux.die.net/man/,
https://www.archlinux.org/.
By default, pages in sections 2 and 4 go to man7, since Michael
Kerrisk is the autorative source on kernel related stuff.
The rest of links goes to linux.die.net, because they have the
manpages.
Except for the pacman stuff, since it seems to be only available from
archlinux.org.
Poor gummiboot gets no link, because gummitboot(8) ain't to be found
on the net. According to common wisdom, that would mean that it does
not exist. But I have seen Kay using it, so I know it does, and
deserves to be found. Can somebody be nice and put it up somewhere?
Only accept cpu quota values in percentages, get rid of period
definition.
It's not clear whether the CFS period controllable per-cgroup even has a
future in the kernel, hence let's simplify all this, hardcode the period
to 100ms and only accept percentage based quota values.
Issues fixed:
* missing words required by grammar
* duplicated or extraneous words
* inappropriate forms (e.g. singular/plural), and declinations
* orthographic misspellings
This is useful to prohibit execution of non-native processes on systems,
for example 32bit binaries on 64bit systems, this lowering the attack
service on incorrect syscall and ioctl 32→64bit mappings.
This is a recurring submission and includes corrections to various
issue spotted. I guess I can just skip over reporting ubiquitous
comma placement fixes…
Highligts in this particular commit:
- the "unsigned" type qualifier is completed to form a full type
"unsigned int"
- alphabetic -> lexicographic (that way we automatically define how
numbers get sorted)
Use proper grammar, word usage, adjective hyphenation, commas,
capitalization, spelling, etc.
To improve readability, some run-on sentences or sentence fragments were
revised.
[zj: remove the space from 'file name', 'host name', and 'time zone'.]
This complements existing functionality of setting variables
through 'systemctl set-environment', the kernel command line,
and through normal environment variables for systemd in session
mode.
