Often I end up debugging a problem on a system, and I
do e.g. `journalctl --grep=failed|error`. The use of the term
"failed" for condition checks adds a *lot* of unnecessary noise into
this.
Now, I know this regexp search isn't precise, but it has proven
to be useful to me.
I think "failed" is too strong of a term as a baseline, and also
just stands out to e.g. humans watching their servers boot or
whatever.
The term "met condition" is fairly widely used, e.g.

Use that instead.
New directive `NetLabel=` provides a method for integrating static and dynamic
network configuration into Linux NetLabel subsystem rules, used by Linux
Security Modules (LSMs) for network access control. The label, with suitable
LSM rules, can be used to control connectivity of (for example) a service with
peers in the local network. At least with SELinux, only the ingress can be
controlled but not egress. The benefit of using this setting is that it may be
possible to apply interface independent part of NetLabel configuration at very
early stage of system boot sequence, at the time when the network interfaces
are not available yet, with netlabelctl(8), and the per-interface configuration
with systemd-networkd once the interfaces appear later. Currently this feature
is only implemented for SELinux.
The option expects a single NetLabel label. The label must conform to lexical
restrictions of LSM labels. When an interface is configured with IP addresses,
the addresses and subnetwork masks will be appended to the NetLabel Fallback
Peer Labeling rules. They will be removed when the interface is
deconfigured. Failures to manage the labels will be ignored.
Example:
```
[DHCPv4]
NetLabel=system_u:object_r:localnet_peer_t:s0
```
With the above rules for interface `eth0`, when the interface is configured with
an IPv4 address of 10.0.0.123/8, `systemd-networkd` performs the equivalent of
`netlabelctl` operation
```
$ sudo netlabelctl unlbl add interface eth0 address:10.0.0.0/8 label:system_u:object_r:localnet_peer_t:s0
```
Result:
```
$ sudo netlabelctl -p unlbl list
...
interface: eth0
address: 10.0.0.0/8
label: "system_u:object_r:localnet_peer_t:s0"
...
```
getopt allows non-ambiguous abbreviations, so backwards-compat is maintained, and
people can use --kill-who (or even shorter abbreviations). English is flexible,
so in common speach people would use both forms, even if "whom" is technically
more correct. The advantage of using the longer form in the code is that we
effectively allow both forms, so we stop punishing people who DTGCT¹, but still
allow people to use the spoken form if they prefer.
1. Do the gramatically correct thing
Previously the field "_SYSTEM_CONTEXT" knew he values "initrd" + "main". Let's change
this to "_RUNTIME_SCOPE" and "initrd" + "system".
Why? The sysext logic has a very similar concept of "scopes", declaring
whether a sysext image is intended for the initrd or the main system.
Let's thus use the same naming for both.
sysext's extension-release files hence know SYSEXT_SCOPE=initrd|system,
and the journal messages know _RUNTIME_SCOPE=initrd|system, which makes
this reasonably systematic.

(This is not an API break, since no version with this commit has ever
been released.)
/bin/sh as a shell is punishing. There is no good reason to make
the occasional root login unpleasant.
Since /bin/sh is usually /bin/bash in compat mode, i.e. if one is
available, the other will be too, /bin/bash is almost as good as a default.
But to avoid a regression in the situation where /bin/bash (or
DEFAULT_USER_SHELL) is not installed, we check with access() and fall back
to /bin/sh. This should make this change in behaviour less risky.
(FWIW, e.g. Fedora/RHEL use /bin/bash as default for root.)
This is a follow-up of sorts for 53350c7bba,
which added the default-user-shell option, but most likely with the idea
of using /bin/bash less ;)
Fixes#24369.
The ":=" operator was only added in Python 3.8 so splitting the line with it into two makes check-os-release.py actually fulfill its claim of working with any python version.
When a service is triggered by a path unit, pass the
path unit name and the path that triggered it via env vars
to the spawned processes.
Note that this is best-effort, as there might be many triggers
at the same time, but we only get woken up by one.
Not wired in by any unit type yet, just the basic to allocate,
ref, deref and plug in to other unit types.
Includes recording the trigger unit name and passing it to the
triggered unit as TRIGGER_UNIT= env var.
The general idea is that users should be able to figure out if some option
that they see in a config file or on some internet page is something that
systemd knows about. Once users know that, yes, this was an option but has
been deprecated and removed from the documentation, it's much easier for them
to find any docs in old versions if they want to. Or to switch to something
different.
This allows allows shortcutting measurements of the specified files and
use the information from /sys/ instead.
This is not too useful on its own given that "systemd-measure status"
already exists which displays the current, relevant PCR values. The main
difference is how "complete" the information is. "status" will detect if
the measurements make any sense, and show more than PCR 11. "calculate
--current" otoh only reads PCR 11 and uses that, and that's really it.
This is mainly preparation for later work to add PCR signing to the
tool, where usually it makes most sense to sign prepared kernel images,
but for testing it's really useful to shortcut signing to the current
PCR values instead
entry.
By default an entry named "Linux Boot Manager" is created (which is the
previous behavior). With the flag the name of the entry can be
controlled, which is useful when installing systemd-boot to multiple ESP
partitions and having uniquely named entries.
Fixes#17044.
While I had tested that a symlink to /dev/null works to "mask" a sysext
I must have gotten something wrong and thus the instructions in
519c2f0d6b don't work. What works,
at least at the moment, is to instead have an empty directory with the
extension name under /etc/extensions/.
Correct the info in the man page and add a test for it.
When an extension image has binaries they should match the host
architecture. Currently there is no way to specify this requirement.
Introduce an ARCHITECTURE field in the extension's release file that
may be set to prevent loading on the wrong host architecture.
Since this new field is introduced late, we don't want to make
specifying it mandatory as it would break existing sysext images.
See https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/24061
A sysext image that merely contains static binaries has no dependency
on the host distribution and should be able to be used anywhere.
Support the special '_any' value for the ID field in the extension to
opt-out of ID and VERSION_ID/SYSEXT_LEVEL matching.
