This has a long history; see see 5261ba9018
which originally introduced the behavior. Unfortunately that commit
doesn't include any rationale, but IIRC the basic issue is that
systemd wants to model the real mount state as units, and symlinks
make canonicalization much more difficult.
At the same time, on a RHEL6 system (upstart), one can make e.g. `/home` a
symlink, and things work as well as they always did; but one doesn't have
access to the sophistication of mount units (dependencies, introspection, etc.)
Supporting symlinks here will hence make it easier for people to do upgrades to
RHEL7 and beyond.
The `/home` as symlink case also appears prominently for OSTree; see
https://ostree.readthedocs.io/en/latest/manual/adapting-existing/
Further work has landed in the nspawn case for this; see e.g.
d944dc9553
A basic limitation with doing this in the fstab generator (and that I hit while
doing some testing) is that we obviously can't chase symlinks into mounts,
since the generator runs early before mounts. Or at least - doing so would
require multiple passes over the fstab data (as well as looking at existing
mount units), and potentially doing multi-phase generation. I'm not sure it's
worth doing that without a real world use case. For now, this will fix at least
the OSTree + `/home` <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1382873> case
mentioned above, and in general anyone who for whatever reason has symlinks in
their `/etc/fstab`.
When "bg" is specified for NFS mounts, and if the server is
not accessible, two behaviors are possible depending on networking
details.
If a definitive error is received, such a EHOSTUNREACH or ECONNREFUSED,
mount.nfs will fork and continue in the background, while /bin/mount
will report success.
If no definitive error is reported but the connection times out
instead, then the mount.nfs timeout will normally be longer than the
systemd.mount timeout, so mount.nfs will be killed by systemd.
In the first case the mount has appeared to succeed even though
it hasn't. This can be confusing. Also the background mount.nfs
will never get cleaned up, even if the mount unit is stopped.
In the second case, mount.nfs is killed early and so the mount will
not complete when the server comes back.
Neither of these are ideal.
This patch modifies the options when an NFS bg mount is detected to
force an "fg" mount, but retain the default "retry" time of 10000
minutes that applies to "bg" mounts.
It also imposes "nofail" behaviour and sets the TimeoutSec for the
mount to "infinity" so the retry= time is allowed to complete.
This provides near-identical behaviour to an NFS bg mount started directly
by "mount -a". The only difference is that systemd will not wait for
the first mount attempt, while "mount -a" will.
Fixes#6046
Fixes#295.
(We cannot add a comment to either of those files because they are documented
to "only support variable assignments", so it's better to add an explanation
in the man page instead.)
This makes `systemd-umount` or `systemd-mount -u` support unmounting
loop devices by the corresponding backing files, like
`systemd-mount --umount /tmp/foo.img /tmp/bar.img`
Fixes#6206.
Previously, only when --register=yes was set (the default) the invoked
container would get its own scope, created by machined on behalf of
nspawn. With this change if --register=no is set nspawn will still get
its own scope (which is a good thing, so that --slice= and --property=
take effect), but this is not done through machined but by registering a
scope unit directly in PID 1.
Summary:
--register=yes → allocate a new scope through machined (the default)
--register=yes --keep-unit → use the unit we are already running in an register with machined
--register=no → allocate a new scope directly, but no machined
--register=no --keep-unit → do not allocate nor register anything
Fixes: #5823
This makes systemd-umount (or systemd-mount -u) supports multiple arguments
which can be path, device, or fstab style node name, like
`systemd-umount /path/to/umount /dev/sda1 UUID=xxxxxx-xxxx LABEL=xxxxx`.
C.f. https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/5235#issuecomment-277731314.
This also alters the documentation to recommend memfds rather than /run
for serializing state across reboots. That's because /run doesn't
actually have the same lifecycle as the fd store, as it is cleared out
on restarts.
Fixes: #5606
This work allows to configure device port:
tp — An Ethernet interface using Twisted-Pair cable as the medium.
aui — Attachment Unit Interface (AUI). Normally used with hubs.
bnc — An Ethernet interface using BNC connectors and co-axial cable.
mii — An Ethernet interface using a Media Independent Interface (MII).
fibre — An Ethernet interface using Optical Fibre as the medium.

The escaping rules are a POSIX proposal, and are described in
http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=249. There's a lot of back-and-forth on
the details of escaping of control characters, but we'll be only using a small
subset of the syntax that is common to all proposals and is widely supported.
Unfortunately dash and fish and maybe some other shells do not support it (see
the man page patch for a list).
This allows environment variables to be safely exported using show-environment
and imported into the shell. Shells which do not support this syntax will have
to do something like
export $(systemctl show-environment|grep -v '=\$')
or whatever is appropriate in their case. I think csh and fish do not support
the A=B syntax anyway, so the change is moot for them.
Fixes#5536.
v2:
- also escape newlines (which currently disallowed in shell values, so this
doesn't really matter), and tabs (as $'\t'), and ! (as $'!'). This way quoted
output can be included directly in both interactive and noninteractive bash.
Make sure to only apply the O_NONBLOCK flag to the fds passed via socket
activation.
Previously the flag was also applied to the fds which came from the fd store
but this was incorrect since services, after being restarted, expect that these
passed fds have their flags unchanged and can be reused as before.
The documentation was a bit unclear about this so clarify it.
The -ENOMEDIUM return value was introduced in v232-1001-g2977724b09,
('core: make hybrid cgroup unified mode keep compat /sys/fs/cgroup/systemd hierarchy'),
and would be returned by cg_pid_get_path_shifted(), but the documented and
expected return value is -ENODATA. Let's just catch ENXIO/ENOMEDIUM and translate
it to ENODATA in all cases.
Complements 171f8f591f, fixes#6012.
this patch makes it possible to configure a vlan aware bridge without the
PVID. To configure no PVID set DefaultPVID=none in the [BridgeVLAN] section.
fixes#5716
This adds two options that are useful for user units. In particular, it
is useful to check ConditionUser=!0 to not start for the root user.
Closes: #5187
DHCP responses could include static routes, but unfortunately not an
option to tell what scope to use. So it's important that the client sets
it properly.
This mimics what the `ip route add` command does when adding a static
route without an explicit scope:
* If the destination IP is on the local host, use scope `host`
* Otherwise if the gateway IP is null (direct route), use scope `link`
* If anything else, use the current default `global`.
Fixes#5979.
test-login.c is largely rewritten to use _cleanup_ and give more meaningful
messages (function names are used instead of creative terms like "active
session", so that when something unexpected is returned, it's much easier to
see what function is responsible).
The monitoring part is only activated if '-m' is passed on the command line.
It runs against the information from /run/systemd/ in the live system, but that
should be OK: logind/sd-login interface is supposed to be stable and both
backwards and forwards compatible.
If not running in a login session, some tests are skipped.
Those two changes together mean that it's possible to run test-login in the
test suite.
Tests for sd_pid_get_{unit,user_unit,slice} are added.
sd_seat_get_sessions returns two arrays, that in principle should always match:
the session names and corresponding uids. The second array could be shorter only
if parsing or uid conversion fails. But in that case there is no way to tell
*which* uid is wrong, so they are *all* useless. It's better to simplify things and
just return an error if parsing fails.
The example for LD_LIBRARY_PATH in the environment.d man page is wrong.
When setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH, the new directory usually needs to be at
the front so it overrides old directories.
In the example, the colon delimiter is correctly prepended to the front, but
the actual new path is erroneously appended to the end.
This commit moves it to the front where it belongs.
Also updates the documentation and adds a mention of ppc64 support
which was enabled by #5325.
Tested on Debian mipsel and mips64el. The other 4 mips architectures
should have an identical user <-> kernel ABI to one of the 2 tested
systems.
Using conf.set() with a boolean argument does the right thing:
either #ifdef or #undef. This means that conf.set can be used unconditionally.
Previously I used '1' as the placeholder value, and that needs to be changed to
'true' for consistency (under meson 1 cannot be used in boolean context). All
checks need to be adjusted.
The symlinks should be created in the build directory in two cases: when
configuration specifies -Dhtml=true, or when ninja html target is built.
Normally install : {true,false} is used to decide if a target should be built,
but in this case, we cannot use install : true, because, as described in
488477d101, that results in the target file being copied into the
installation directory instead of a symlink. So we need a work-around. To
achieve the first end, the commands to create the symlinks are added as
dependencies of the command to create the html page. To the second end, they
are added as dependencies of the html target.
Follow-up for 488477d101 and 064d9ef0d7.
This adds two somewhat independent rules:
1. to create symlinks to html pages in the build directory
2. to create symlinks in the installation directory
The second part needs to be coded separately, because telling meson to install
the symlinks created in step 1. results in a copy of the target, instead of a
symlink. So step 2. needs to ignore the result of 1. and create the symlink again.
Fixes#5863.
This is useful on systems like NixOS, where python3 is not in
/usr/bin/python3 as well as for people using alternative ways to
install python such as virtualenv/pyenv.
Unit.JobTimeoutSec starts when a job is enqueued in a transaction. The
introduced distinct Unit.JobRunningTimeoutSec starts only when the job starts
running (e.g. it groups all Exec* commands of a service or spans waiting for a
device period.)
Unit.JobRunningTimeoutSec is intended to be used by default instead of
Unit.JobTimeoutSec for device units where such behavior causes less confusion
(consider a job for a _netdev mount device, with this change the timeout will
start ticking only after the network is ready).
In order to verify a pulled container or disk image, importd only supports
SHA256SUMS files with the detached signature in SHA256SUMS.gpg.
SUSE is using an inline signed file with the name of the image itself and the
suffix .sha256 instead.
This commit adds support for this type of signature files.
It is first attempted to pull the .sha256 file.
If this fails with error 404, the SHA256SUMS and SHA256SUMS.gpg files are
pulled and used for verification.
The indentation for emacs'es meson-mode is added .dir-locals.
All files are reindented automatically, using the lasest meson-mode from git.
Indentation should now be fairly consistent.
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 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
This is a bit bare-bones, but should work for now. Maybe in the future we'll
have a way to make meson generate it for us, without specifying all the names
by hand.
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
--new-id works because it’s an unambiguous prefix, but the full option
name is --new-id128.
(#5381 did the same in one other manpage, but I didn’t check for other
manpages using the abbreviated version back then.)
This work based on Tom's original patch
teg@1312172
By setting GatewayOnlink=yes, the kernel will assume that the gateway is onlink
even if there is no route to it.
Resolves issue #1283.
Allow setting bridge port priority in the Bridge section of the network file,
similar to e.g. port path cost setting.
Set the default to an invalid value of 128, and only set the port priority when
it's not 128. Unlike e.g. path cost, zero is a valid priority value.
Add a networkd-test.py to check that bridge port priority is correctly set.
Incidently, fix bridge port cost type and document valid ranges.
So far, all sections of the systemd.special(7) man page used
<varlistentry> for listing the targets, with one exception: the
"Special Passive User Units" one. Let's clean this up and use the same
formatting everywhere.
Per man:file-hierarchy(7), /lib is just a compatibility symlink; the
other manpages also refer to /usr/lib.

This updates the man page for the changes introduced in 1d84ad9445.
"=" is kep if the option is predominantly used with an argument, and dropped
otherwise.
v2:
- update also description of log_color
- drop '=' in all cases where it is optional
(previous rule of dropping it only in some cases was just too arbitrary.)
Sometimes it's useful to provide a default value during an environment
expansion, if the environment variable isn't already set.
For instance $XDG_DATA_DIRS is suppose to default to:
/usr/local/share/:/usr/share/
if it's not yet set. That means callers wishing to augment
XDG_DATA_DIRS need to manually add those two values.
This commit changes replace_env to support the following shell
compatible default value syntax:
XDG_DATA_DIRS=/foo:${XDG_DATA_DIRS:-/usr/local/share/:/usr/share}
Likewise, it's useful to provide an alternate value during an
environment expansion, if the environment variable isn't already set.
For instance, $LD_LIBRARY_PATH will inadvertently search the current
working directory if it starts or ends with a colon, so the following
is usually wrong:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/foo/lib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}
To address that, this changes replace_env to support the following
shell compatible alternate value syntax:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/foo/lib${LD_LIBRARY_PATH:+:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}}
[zj: gate the new syntax under REPLACE_ENV_ALLOW_EXTENDED switch, so
existing callers are not modified.]
In the future we might want to allow additional syntax (for example
"unset VAR". But let's check that the data we're getting does not contain
anything unexpected.
(Only in environment.d files.)
We have only basic compatibility with shell syntax, but specifying variables
without using braces is probably more common, and I think a lot of people would
be surprised if this didn't work.
Add support for /etc/environment and document the changes to the user manager
to automatically import environment *.conf files from:
~/.config/environment.d/
/etc/environment.d/
/run/environment.d/
/usr/local/lib/environment.d/
/usr/lib/environment.d/
/etc/environment
Why the strange name: the prefix is necessary to follow our own advice that
environment generators should have numerical prefixes. I also put -d- in the
name because otherwise the name was very easy to mistake with
systemd.environment-generator. This additional letter clarifies that this
on special generator that supports environment.d files.
v2:
- add example files to EXTRA_DIST
v3:
- rework for the new scheme where nothing is written to disk
v4:
- use separate dirs for system and user env generators
As the kernel won't map the UIDs this is simply not safe, and hence we
should generate a clean error and refuse it.
We can restore this feature later should a "shiftfs" become available in
the kernel.
This changes the file copy logic of machined to set the UID/GID of all
copied files to 0 if the host and container do not share the same user
namespace.
Fixes: #4078
This breaks again, this time for setups where Qemu is not reported via DMI for whatever
reason. So swap order of cpuid and dmi again, but properly detect oracle.
See issue #5318.
Embedding sd_id128_t's in constant strings was rather cumbersome. We had
SD_ID128_CONST_STR which returned a const char[], but it had two problems:
- it wasn't possible to statically concatanate this array with a normal string
- gcc wasn't really able to optimize this, and generated code to perform the
"conversion" at runtime.
Because of this, even our own code in coredumpctl wasn't using
SD_ID128_CONST_STR.
Add a new macro to generate a constant string: SD_ID128_MAKE_STR.
It is not as elegant as SD_ID128_CONST_STR, because it requires a repetition
of the numbers, but in practice it is more convenient to use, and allows gcc
to generate smarter code:

In commit 050e65a we swapped order of detect_vm_{cpuid,dmi}(). That
fixed Virtualbox but broke qemu with kvm, which is expected to return
'kvm'. So check for qemu/kvm first, then DMI, CPUID last.
This fixes#5318.

Currently fstab entries with 'nofail' option are mounted
asynchronously and there is no way how to specify dependencies
between such fstab entry and another units. It means that
users are forced to write additional dependency units manually.
The patch introduces new systemd fstab options:
x-systemd.before=<PATH>
x-systemd.after=<PATH>
- to specify another mount dependency (PATH is translated to unit name)
x-systemd.before=<UNIT>
x-systemd.after=<UNIT>
- to specify arbitrary UNIT dependency
For example mount where A should be mounted before local-fs.target unit:
/dev/sdb1 /mnt/test/A none nofail,x-systemd.before=local-fs.target
IPv6 Neighbor discovery proxy is the IPv6 equivalent to proxy ARP for IPv4.
It is required when ISPs do not unconditional route IPv6 subnets
to their designated target, but expect neighbor solicitation messages
for every address on a link.
A variable IPv6ProxyNDPAddress= is introduced to the [Network] section,
each representing a IPv6 neighbour proxy entry in the neighbour table.
Let's clarify that RestrictAddressFamilies= and MemoryDenyWriteExecute=
are only fully effective if non-native system call architectures are
disabled, since they otherwise may be used to circumvent the filters, as
the filters aren't equally effective on all ABIs.
Fixes: #5277
We should try to keep the unbreakable lines below 80 columns.
It's not always possible of course.
Also, use the dl.fp.o alias instead of a specific mirror.
There was a missing dependency and one with the wrong type. Additionally, refer
to DefaultDependencies= once instead of twice, without a vague reference in the
first one that doesn't mention that the value matters.
Fixes#5226.
Add a bit of code that tries to get the right parameter order in place
for some of the better known architectures, and skips
restrict_namespaces for other archs.
This also bypasses the test on archs where we don't know the right
order.
In this case I didn't bother with testing the case where no filter is
applied, since that is hopefully just an issue for now, as there's
nothing stopping us from supporting more archs, we just need to know
which order is right.
Fixes: #5241
Add a new --pivot-root argument to systemd-nspawn, which specifies a
directory to pivot to / inside the container; while the original / is
pivoted to another specified directory (if provided). This adds
support for booting container images which may contain several bootable
sysroots, as is common with OSTree disk images. When these disk images
are booted on real hardware, ostree-prepare-root is run in conjunction
with sysroot.mount in the initramfs to achieve the same results.
On i386 we block the old mmap() call entirely, since we cannot properly
filter it. Thankfully it hasn't been used by glibc since quite some
time.
Fixes: #5240
The --help text currently uses the "--umount" spelling, hence to the
same in the man page too.
And let's settle on "umount" instead of "unmount" here, since most folks
probably expect that when typing in a command, as util-linux' tool is
called "umount" after all, and so is the symlink "systemd-umount" we
install.
The third paragraph of the Description already linked to
systemd.resource-control(5), but it was missing from the list of
additional options for the [Service] section.
This slightly extends the roothash loading logic to first check for a
user.verity.roothash extended attribute on the image file. If it exists,
it is used as Verity root hash and the ".roothash" file is not used.
This should improve the chance that the roothash is retained when the
file is moved around, as the data snippet is attached directly to the
image file. The field is still detached from the file payload however,
in order to make sure it may be trusted independently.
This does not replace the ".roothash" file loading, it simply adds a
second way to retrieve the data.
Extended attributes are often a poor choice for storing metadata like
this as it is usually difficult to discover for admins and users, and
hard to fix if it ever gets out of sync. However, in this case I think
it's safe as verity implies read-only access, and thus there's little
chance of it to get out of sync.
This is similar to RootDirectory= but mounts the root file system from a
block device or loopback file instead of another directory.
This reuses the image dissector code now used by nspawn and
gpt-auto-discovery.
This adds a boolean unit file setting MountAPIVFS=. If set, the three
main API VFS mounts will be mounted for the service. This only has an
effect on RootDirectory=, which it makes a ton times more useful.
(This is basically the /dev + /proc + /sys mounting code posted in the
original #4727, but rebased on current git, and with the automatic logic
replaced by explicit logic controlled by a unit file setting)
This changes the environment for services running as root from:
LANG=C.utf8
PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
INVOCATION_ID=ffbdec203c69499a9b83199333e31555
JOURNAL_STREAM=8:1614518
to
LANG=C.utf8
PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
HOME=/root
LOGNAME=root
USER=root
SHELL=/bin/sh
INVOCATION_ID=15a077963d7b4ca0b82c91dc6519f87c
JOURNAL_STREAM=8:1616718
Making the environment special for the root user complicates things
unnecessarily. This change simplifies both our logic (by making the setting
of the variables unconditional), and should also simplify the logic in
services (particularly scripts).
Fixes#5124.
$ systemd-cgls -u systemd-journald.service machine.slice
I opted for a "global" switch, instead of modifying the behaviour of just one
argument. It seem to be a more useful setting, since usually one will want to
query one or more units, and not mix unit names with paths.
Closes#5156.
'systemctl --failed' is an extremely common operation and it's nice to have
a shortcut for it.
Revert "man: don't document systemctl --failed" and add the option back to
systemctl's help and shell completion scripts.
This reverts commit 036359ba8d.
- Show example of all `systemctl status` output and documents what possible
"Loaded:", "Active" and "Enabled" values mean.
- Documents what different colors of the dot mean.
- Documents "gotcha" with load-on-demand behavior which will report units as
"loaded" even if they are only loaded to show their status.

When a user is trying to understand what is going on with a restart action, it is useful to explicitly describe how the action is run. It may seem obvious, but it is helpful to be explicit so one knows there isn't a special ExecRestart= or similar option that they could be looking at.
Accept AF_VSOCK listen addresses in socket unit files. Both guest and
host can now take advantage of socket activation.
The QEMU guest agent has recently been modified to support socket
activation and can run over AF_VSOCK with this patch.
This adds a brief explanation, suggesting the use of "systemd-run -M" to
acquire exit status/code information for the invoked process.
My original plan was to propagate the exit code/status in "machinectl
shell" too, but this would mean we'd have to actively watch the shell's
runtime status, and thus would need full, highly privileged and
continious access to the container's system manager, the way
"systemd-run" does it. This would be quite a departure from the
simplistic, low-priviliged OpenShell() bus call implementation of the
current code, that really just acquires a PTY device with a shell
connected.
Moreover it would blur the lines between the two commands even further,
which I think is not desirable. Hence, from now on:
"machinectl shell" is the full-session, interactive shell for human
users
"systemd-run -M …" is the low-level tool, that supports
on-interactive mode, and is more configurable and suitable for
streaming.
Fixes: #4215
The manpage claimed that ExecStop would be followed immediately by
SIGKILL, whereas the actual behavior is to go through KillMode= and
KillSignal= first.
Fixes#4490
Fix wrong condition test in manager_etc_hosts_lookup(), which caused it to
return an IPv4 answer when an IPv6 question was asked, and vice versa.
Also only return success if we actually found any A or AAAA record.
In systemd-resolved.service(8), point out that /etc/hosts mappings only
affect address-type lookups, not other types.
The test case currently disables DNSSEC in resolved, as there is a bug
where "-t MX" fails due to "DNSSEC validation failed" even after
"downgrading to non-DNSSEC mode". This should be dropped once that bug
gets fixed.
Fixes#4801
active_slave:
Specifies the new active slave for modes that support it
(active-backup, balance-alb and balance-tlb).
primary slave:
systemd-networks currently lacks the capability to set the primary slave
in an
active-backup bonding. This is necessary if you prefer one interface
over the
other. A common example is a eth0-wlan0 bonding on a laptop where you'd
want to
switch to the wired connection whenever it's available.
Fixes: #2837
This adds a generator and a small service that will look for "roothash="
on the kernel command line and use it for setting up a very partition
for the root device.
This provides similar functionality to nspawn's existing --roothash=
switch.
This adds support for a new kernel command line option "systemd.volatile=" that
provides the same functionality that systemd-nspawn's --volatile= switch
provides, but for host systems (i.e. systems booting with a kernel).
It takes the same parameter and has the same effect.
In order to implement systemd.volatile=yes a new service
systemd-volatile-root.service is introduced that only runs in the initrd and
rearranges the root directory as needed to become a tmpfs instance. Note that
systemd.volatile=state is implemented different: it simply generates a
var.mount unit file that is part of the normal boot and has no effect on the
initrd execution.
The way this is implemented ensures that other explicit configuration for /var
can always override the effect of these options. Specifically, the var.mount
unit is generated in the "late" generator directory, so that it only is in
effect if nothing else overrides it.
This improves kernel command line parsing in a number of ways:
a) An kernel option "foo_bar=xyz" is now considered equivalent to
"foo-bar-xyz", i.e. when comparing kernel command line option names "-" and
"_" are now considered equivalent (this only applies to the option names
though, not the option values!). Most of our kernel options used "-" as word
separator in kernel command line options so far, but some used "_". With
this change, which was a source of confusion for users (well, at least of
one user: myself, I just couldn't remember that it's systemd.debug-shell,
not systemd.debug_shell). Considering both as equivalent is inspired how
modern kernel module loading normalizes all kernel module names to use
underscores now too.
b) All options previously using a dash for separating words in kernel command
line options now use an underscore instead, in all documentation and in
code. Since a) has been implemented this should not create any compatibility
problems, but normalizes our documentation and our code.
c) All kernel command line options which take booleans (or are boolean-like)
have been reworked so that "foobar" (without argument) is now equivalent to
"foobar=1" (but not "foobar=0"), thus normalizing the handling of our
boolean arguments. Specifically this means systemd.debug-shell and
systemd_debug_shell=1 are now entirely equivalent.
d) All kernel command line options which take an argument, and where no
argument is specified will now result in a log message. e.g. passing just
"systemd.unit" will no result in a complain that it needs an argument. This
is implemented in the proc_cmdline_missing_value() function.
e) There's now a call proc_cmdline_get_bool() similar to proc_cmdline_get_key()
that parses booleans (following the logic explained in c).
f) The proc_cmdline_parse() call's boolean argument has been replaced by a new
flags argument that takes a common set of bits with proc_cmdline_get_key().
g) All kernel command line APIs now begin with the same "proc_cmdline_" prefix.
h) There are now tests for much of this. Yay!
Since commit 9d06297, mount units from mountinfo are not bound to their devices
anymore (they use the "Requires" dependency instead).
This has the following drawback: if a media is mounted and the eject button is
pressed then the media is unconditionally ejected leaving some inconsistent
states.
Since udev is the component that is reacting (no matter if the device is used
or not) to the eject button, users expect that udev at least try to unmount the
media properly.
This patch introduces a new property "SYSTEMD_MOUNT_DEVICE_BOUND". When set on
a block device, all units that requires this device will see their "Requires"
dependency upgraded to a "BindTo" one. This is currently only used by cdrom
devices.
This patch also gives the possibility to the user to restore the previous
behavior that is bind a mount unit to a device. This is achieved by passing the
"x-systemd.device-bound" option to mount(8). Please note that currently this is
not working because libmount treats the x-* options has comments therefore
they're not available in utab for later application retrievals.
This adds two new settings BindPaths= and BindReadOnlyPaths=. They allow
defining arbitrary bind mounts specific to particular services. This is
particularly useful for services with RootDirectory= set as this permits making
specific bits of the host directory available to chrooted services.
The two new settings follow the concepts nspawn already possess in --bind= and
--bind-ro=, as well as the .nspawn settings Bind= and BindReadOnly= (and these
latter options should probably be renamed to BindPaths= and BindReadOnlyPaths=
too).
Fixes: #3439
