We had a description in README, and an outdated list in the man page.
I think we should keep a reference-style list in the man page. The description
in README is more free-form.

for our migration to systemd.io.
git archive automatically uses gzip when --output=*.tar.gz is used, but
not for other extensions. Thus we need to invoke the compressor separately :(
It's a good pattern to use a variable for the repeating number, so let's
recommend that.
With meson-0.60, meson compile stopped working with some targets:
$ meson compile -C build update-man-rules
ERROR: Can't invoke target `update-man-rules`: ambiguous name. Add target type and/or path: `PATH/NAME:TYPE`
This is obviously a regression in meson, but based on a chat with the
maintainers, it seems that there's some disagreement as to whether 'meson
compile' is useful and how exactly it should work. Since we're already at
meson 0.60.3 and this hasn't been fixed, and people generally don't seem to
consider this an issue, let's return to documenting the usual practice of
'ninja -C build' that just works everywhere.
(Since nobody has raised any fuss in systemd, it means that people are
generally using the shorter form during development too. I only noticed
because I pasted a command from the release docs when preparing -rc1.)
After various long discussions
(https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2022-March/047587.html,
https://lwn.net/Articles/889610/), there is no clear answer what the minimum
version should be. Bumping the version above 3.15 doesn't allow us to make any
significant simplifications (unless we went *much* higher). In particular, even
renameat2() is not fully supported with latest kernel versions, e.g. nfs still
doesn't have it. And the bpf stuff is optional anyway. So let's just say that
4.15 is what we recommend, because it provides fairly complete cgroups-v2, but
without any removals of compat in the code.
Let's raise our supported baseline a bit: CLOCK_BOOTTIME started to work
with timerfd in kernel 3.15 (i.e. back in 2014), let's require support
for it now.
This will raise our baseline only modestly from 3.13 → 3.15.
This version is from 2017 and should be stale enough to not cause
an outrage. All the relevant distros have it or a newer version.
We also already depend on some symbols defined in 3.0.5 anyway,
so let's take the opportunity to reduce our missing_efi.h
baggage.
Instead of embedding the commands to invoke directly in the macros,
let's use a helper script as indirection. This has a couple of advantages:
- the macro language is awkward, we need to suffix most commands by "|| :"
and "\", which is easy to get wrong. In the new scheme, the macro becomes
a single simple command.
- in the script we can use normal syntax highlighting, shellcheck, etc.
- it's also easier to test the invoked commands by invoking the helper
manually.
- most importantly, the logic is contained in the helper, i.e. we can
update systemd rpm and everything uses the new helper. Before, we would
have to rebuild all packages to update the macro definition.
This raises the question whether it makes sense to use the lua scriptlets when
the real work is done in a bash script. I think it's OK: we still have the
efficient lua scripts that do the short scripts, and we use a single shared
implementation in bash to do the more complex stuff.
The meson version is raised to 0.47 because that's needed for install_mode.
We were planning to raise the required version anyway…
m4 was hugely popular in the past, because autotools, automake, flex, bison and
many other things used it. But nowadays it much less popular, and might not even
be installed in the buildroot. (m4 is small, so it doesn't make a big difference.)
(FWIW, Fedora dropped make from the buildroot now,
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Remove_make_from_BuildRoot. I think it's
reasonable to assume that m4 will be dropped at some point too.)
The main reason to drop m4 is that the syntax is not very nice, and we should
minimize the number of different syntaxes that we use. We still have two
(configure_file() with @FOO@ and jinja2 templates with {{foo}} and the
pythonesque conditional expressions), but at least we don't need m4 (with
m4_dnl and `quotes').
There is no technical reason to support systems with split-usr, except for
backwards compatibility. Even though systemd itself makes an effort to support
this, many other tools aren't as careful. Despite those efforts, we
(collectively) get it wrong often, because doing it "wrong" on systems with
merged-usr has no consequences. Since almost all developers are on such
systems, any issues are only discovered late. Supporting this split-usr mode
makes both code and documentation more complicated. The split is purely
artificial and has no justification except to allow old installation to not
update. Mechanisms to update existing systems are available though: Fedora
did that in https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/UsrMove, Debian has
the usrmerge package.
The next version of Debian will only support systems with split-usr=false,
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=978636#178:
The Technical Committee resolves that Debian 'bookworm' should
support only the merged-usr root filesystem layout, dropping support
for the non-merged-usr layout.
Let's start warning if split-usr mode is used, in preparation to removing the
split in one of the future releases.
This only changes documentation. In various places we call "ninja"
directly. I figured it would be safer to leave those in place for now,
given the meson replacement commands lines appears to be supported in
newer meson versions only.
Was trying to run src/partition/test-repart.sh on CentOS 8 and the first
resize call kept failing with ERANGE. Turned out that CentOS 8 comes
with libfdisk-devel-2.32.1 which is missing
2f35c1ead6
(in libfdisk 2.33 and up).
Now that we make the user/group name resolving available via userdb and
thus nss-systemd, we do not need the UID/GID resolving support in
nss-mymachines anymore. Let's drop it hence.
We keep the module around, since besides UID/GID resolving it also does
hostname resolving, which we care about. (One of those days we should
replace that by some Varlink logic between
nss-resolve/systemd-resolved.service too)
The hooks are kept in the NSS module, but they do not resolve anything
anymore, in order to keep compat at a maximum.
Since cryptsetup 2.3.0 a new API to verify dm-verity volumes by a
pkcs7 signature, with the public key in the kernel keyring,
is available. Use it if libcryptsetup supports it.
This reverts commit 07125d24ee.
In contrast to what is claimed in #13396 dbus-broker apparently does
care for the service file to be around, and otherwise will claim
"Service Not Activatable" in the time between systemd starting up the
broker and connecting to it, which the stub service file is supposed to
make go away.
Reverting this makes the integration test suite pass again on host with
dbus-broker (i.e. current Fedora desktop).
Tested with dbus-broker-21-6.fc31.x86_64.
Increase the required version to ensure TLS 1.3 is always supported when using GnuTLS for DNS-over-TLS and allow further changes to use recent API additions.
This fixes the following problem:
> At the very end of the boot, just after the first user logs in
> (usually using sddm / X) I get the following messages in my logs:
> Nov 18 07:02:33 samd dbus-daemon[2879]: [session uid=1000 pid=2877] Activated service 'org.freedesktop.systemd1' failed: Process org.freedesktop.systemd1 exited with status 1
> Nov 18 07:02:33 samd dbus-daemon[2879]: [session uid=1000 pid=2877] Activated service 'org.freedesktop.systemd1' failed: Process org.freedesktop.systemd1 exited with status 1
These messages are caused by the "stub" service files that systemd
installs. It installed them because early versions of systemd activation
required them to exist.
Since dbus 1.11.0, a dbus-daemon that is run with --systemd-activation
automatically assumes that o.fd.systemd1 is an activatable
service. As a result, with a new enough dbus version,
/usr/share/dbus-1/services/org.freedesktop.systemd1.service and
/usr/share/dbus-1/system-services/org.freedesktop.systemd1.service should
become unnecessary, and they can be removed.
dbus 1.11.0 was released 2015-12-02.

Fix section header for stable branches and backports. All the other
headings end in a colon and have no blank lines between them and the
body of the section, so fix this one accordingly.
