c809e38732 docs: Clarify systemctl show manual
The manual incorrectly asserted that the properties in systemctl show
matched the the options in systemd-system.conf, which is not always true.

Add clarification on the equivalence of the properties in systemctl show
and systemd-system.conf

Fixed #21230

e04eae5e1c man/systemctl: rework descriptions of bind and mount-image
The text used "unit's view" to mean mount namespace. But we talk about
mount namespaces in the later part of the paragraph anyway, so trying to
use an "approachable term" only makes the whole thing harder to understand.
Let's use the precise term.

Some paragraph-breaking and re-indentation is done too.

systemctl: hide legends with --quiet, allow overriding

6906da2692 systemctl: hide legends with --quiet, allow overriding
--no-legend is replaced by --legend=no.

--quiet now implies --legend=no, but --legend=yes may be used to override that.
--quiet controls hints and warnings and such, and --legend controls just the
legends. I think it makes sense to allow both to controlled independently, in
particular --quiet --legend makes sense when using systemctl in a script to
provide some user-visible output.

Fixes #18560.

7e215af765 man: move content from the wiki to systemd.preset(5)
The wiki was slightly stale, and almost all the information there
was already present in the man page. I moved the remaing part (discussion)
into the man page and adjusted all links to point to the man page instead.

daemon(7) has a some examples of packaging scriptlets… I don't think it fits
there very well. Most likely they should be moved to systemd.preset(5) or maybe
even removed, but I'm leaving that for later.

30927a2484 Allow control characters in environment variable values
So far, we would allow certain control characters (NL since
b4346b9a77, TAB since 6294aa76d8), but not others. Having
other control characters in environment variable *value* is expected and widely
used, for various prompts like $LESS, $LESS_TERMCAP_*, and other similar
variables. The typical environment exported by bash already contains a dozen or
so such variables, so programs need to handle them.

We handle then correctly too, for example in 'systemctl show-environment',
since 804ee07c13. But we would still disallow setting such variables
by the user, in unit file Environment= and in set-environment/import-environment
operations. This is unexpected and confusing and doesn't help with anything
because such variables are present in the environment through other means.

When printing such variables, 'show-environment' escapes all special
characters, so variables with control characters are plainly visible.
In other uses, e.g. 'cat -v' can be used in similar fashion. This would already
need to be done to suppress color codes starting with \[.

Note that we still forbid invalid utf-8 with this patch. (Control characters
are valid, since they are valid 7-bit ascii.) I'm not sure if we should do
that, but since people haven't been actually asking for invalid utf-8, and only
for control characters, and invalid utf-8 causes other issues, I think it's OK
to leave this unchanged.

Fixes #4446, https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-session/-/issues/45.

5e8deb94c6 core: add DBUS method to bind mount new nodes without service restart
Allow to setup new bind mounts for a service at runtime (via either
DBUS or a new 'systemctl bind' verb) with a new helper that forks into
the unit's mount namespace.
Add a new integration test to cover this.

Useful for zero-downtime addition to services that are running inside
mount namespaces, especially when using RootImage/RootDirectory.

If a service runs with a read-only root, a tmpfs is added on /run
to ensure we can create the airlock directory for incoming mounts
under /run/host/incoming.

4327574fc1 Added option --check-inhibitors for non-tty usage
As described in #2680, systemctl did ignore inhibitors if it is not
attached to a tty to allow scripts to ignore inhibitors automatically.
This pull request preserves this behavior but allows scripts to
explicit check inhibitors if required.

The new parameter '--check-inhibitors=yes' enables this feature.
The old parameter '-i'/'--ignore-inhibitors' was deprecated in favor
of '--check-inhibitors=no', the default behaviour can be specified
with '--check-inhibitors=auto'.
The new parameter is also described in the documentations and shell
completions found here.

Plenty of shell-specific and terminal-specific stuff that have no global
significance.

Let's start warning when this is used to push people towards importing only
specific variables.

Putative NEWS entry:
  * systemctl import-environment will now emit a warning when called without
    any arguments (i.e. to import the full environment block of the called
    program). This command will usually be invoked from a shell, which means
    that it'll inherit a bunch of variables which are specific to that shell,
    and usually to the tty the shell is connected to, and don't have any
    meaning in the global context of the system or user service manager.
    Instead, only specific variables should be imported into the manager
    environment block.

    Similarly, programs which update the manager environment block by directly
    calling the D-Bus API of the manager, should also push specific variables,
    and not the full inherited environment.

82651d5b6b man: improve description of environment block creation
This adds a general description of "philosphy" of keeping the environemnt
block small and hints about systemd-run -P env.

The list of generated variables is split out to a subsection. Viewing
the patch with ignoring whitespace changes is recommended.

We don't ignore invalid assignments (except in import-environment to some
extent), previous description was wrong.

6824c132e9 systemctl: add service-log-{level,target} verbs
Heavily inspired by #15622. This adds:
  systemctl service-log-level systemd-resolved
  systemctl service-log-level systemd-resolved info
  systemctl service-log-target systemd-resolved
  systemctl service-log-target systemd-resolved console

We already have systemctl verbs log-level, log-target, and service-watchdogs.
Those two new verbs tie nicely into this scheme.

The list was rather ad hoc, with "reset-failed" sandwiched between

to introspect state in various ways or modify state in a certain way, let's
put all the introspection commands together and all the ones that actually
have an effect second.

3c719357dc man: extend on the usec/sec discrepancy
Let's document the discrepancy between the Sec and USec suffixing of
unit files and D-Bus properties at three places: in "systemctl show"
(where it already was briefly mentioned), in the D-Bus interface
description (at one place at least, i.e. the most prominent of
properties that encapsulate time values, there are many more) and in the
general man page explaining time values.

By documenting this at all three places I think we now do as much as we
can do about this highlighting the discrepancy of the naming and the
reasons behind it.

15d7ab87c4 systemctl: add new enablement state "alias"
For units which are aliases of other units, reporting preset status as
"enabled" is rather misleading. For example, dbus.service is an alias of
dbus-broker.service. In list-unit-files we'd show both as "enabled".  In
particular, systemctl preset ignores aliases, so showing any preset status at
all is always going to be misleading. Let's introduce a new state "alias" and
use that for all aliases.

I was trying to avoid adding a new state, to keep compatibility with previous
behaviour, but for alias unit files it simply doesn't seem very useful to show
any of the existing states. It seems that the clearly showing that those are
aliases for other units will be easiest to understand for users.

d9e45bc3ab core: introduce support for cgroup freezer
With cgroup v2 the cgroup freezer is implemented as a cgroup
attribute called cgroup.freeze. cgroup can be frozen by writing "1"
to the file and kernel will send us a notification through
"cgroup.events" after the operation is finished and processes in the
cgroup entered quiescent state, i.e. they are not scheduled to
run. Writing "0" to the attribute file does the inverse and process
execution is resumed.

This commit exposes above low-level functionality through systemd's DBus
API. Each unit type must provide specialized implementation for these
methods, otherwise, we return an error. So far only service, scope, and
slice unit types provide the support. It is possible to check if a
given unit has the support using CanFreeze() DBus property.

Note that DBus API has a synchronous behavior and we dispatch the reply
to freeze/thaw requests only after the kernel has notified us that
requested operation was completed.

38fcb7f766 systemctl: add log-level and log-target commands
This copies the commands log-level and log-target (to query and set the current
settings) from systemd-analyze to systemctl, essentially reverting
a65615ca5d. Controllling the log level settings
of the manager is basic functionality, that should be available even if
systemd-analyze (which is more of an analysis tool) is not installed. This is
like dmesg and journalctl, which should be available even if a debugger and
more advanced tools to analyze the kernel are not available. (Note that dmesg
is used to control the log level too, not just to browse the kernel logs.)

I chose to copy&paste the methods from analyze.c to the new location. There
isn't enough code to share, because acquire_bus() in both places has a
different signature despite the same name, so the only part that is common
is the invocation of sd_bus_set_property().
