Use the option name 'password-echo' instead of the generic term
'silent'.
Make the option take an argument for better control over echoing
behavior.

This adds --visible=yes|no|asterisk which allow controlling the echo of
the password prompt in detail. The existing --echo switch is then made
an alias for --visible=yes (and a shortcut -e added for it too).
This catches up homed's FIDO2 support with cryptsetup's: we'll now store
the uv/up/clientPin configuration at enrollment in the user record JSON
data, and use it when authenticating with it.
This also adds explicit "uv" support: we'll only allow it to happen when
the client explicity said it's OK. This is then used by clients to print
a nice message suggesting "uv" has to take place before retrying
allowing it this time. This is modelled after the existing handling for
"up".
Giving --echo to systemd-ask-password allows to echo the user input.
There's nothing secret, so do not show a lock and key emoji by default.
The behavior can be controlled with --emoji=yes|no|auto. The default is
auto, which defaults to yes, unless --echo is given.
0cf8469387 added --console.
6af621248f added an optional argument, but didn't
update the help texts.
Note that there is no ambiguity with the optional argument because no positional
arguments are allowed.
This adds two things:
- A new switch --uuid is added to "udevadm trigger". If specified a
random UUID is associated with the synthettic uevent and it is printed
to stdout. It may then be used manually to match up uevents as they
propagate through the system.
- The UUID logic is now implicitly enabled if "udevadm trigger --settle"
is used, in order to wait for precisely the uevents we actually
trigger. Fallback support is kept for pre-4.13 kernels (where the
requests for trigger uevents with uuids results in EINVAL).
This is the case because the ID128 we generate are all marked as v4 UUID
which requires that some bits are zero and others are one. Let's
document this so that people can rely on SD_ID128_NULL being a special
value for "uninitialized" that is always distinguishable from generated
UUIDs.
When `NoNewPrivileges=yes`, the service shouldn't have a need for any
setuid/setgid programs, so in case there will be a new mount namespace anyway,
mount the file systems with MS_NOSUID.
The code works differently than the docs, and the code is right here.
Fix the doc hence.
See VALID_CHARS in unit-name.c for details about allowed chars in unit
names, but keep in mind that "-" and "\" are special, since generated by
the escaping logic: they are OK to show up in unit names, but need to be
escaped when converting foreign strings to unit names to make sure
things remain reversible.

Strictly speaking adding this is a compatibility break, given that
previously % weren't special. But I'd argue that was simply a bug, as
for the much more prominent Environment= service setting we always
resolved specifiers, and DEfaultEnvironment= is explicitly listed as
being the default for that. Hence, let's fix that.

This might be useful for CopyFiles=, to reference some subdir of $TMP in
a generic way. This allows us to use the new common
system_and_tmp_specifier_table[].
Previously, we supported only "," as separator. This adds support for
"+" and makes it the documented choice.
This is to make specifying PCRs in crypttab easier, since commas are
already used there for separating volume options, and needless escaping
sucks.
"," continues to be supported, but in order to keep things minimal not
documented.
Fixe: #19205
This is like a really strong version of Wants=, that keeps starting the
specified unit if it is ever found inactive.
This is an alternative to Restart= inside a unit, acknowledging the fact
that whether to keep restarting the unit is sometimes not a property of
the unit itself but the state of the system.
This implements a part of what #4263 requests. i.e. there's no
distinction between "always" and "opportunistic". We just dumbly
implement "always" and become active whenever we see no job queued for
an inactive unit that is supposed to be upheld.
This is similar to OnFailure= but is activated whenever a unit returns
into inactive state successfully.
I was always afraid of adding this, since it effectively allows building
loops and makes our engine Turing complete, but it pretty much already
was it was just hidden.
Given that we have per-unit ratelimits as well as an event loop global
ratelimit I feel safe to add this finally, given it actually is useful.
Fixes: #13386
This takes inspiration from PropagatesReloadTo=, but propagates
stop jobs instead of restart jobs.
This is defined based on exactly two atoms: UNIT_ATOM_PROPAGATE_STOP +
UNIT_ATOM_RETROACTIVE_STOP_ON_STOP. The former ensures that when the
unit the dependency is originating from is stopped based on user
request, we'll propagate the stop job to the target unit, too. In
addition, when the originating unit suddenly stops from external causes
the stopping is propagated too. Note that this does *not* include the
UNIT_ATOM_CANNOT_BE_ACTIVE_WITHOUT atom (which is used by BoundBy=),
i.e. this dependency is purely about propagating "edges" and not
"levels", i.e. it's about propagating specific events, instead of
continious states.
This is supposed to be useful for dependencies between .mount units and
their backing .device units. So far we either placed a BindsTo= or
Requires= dependency between them. The former gave a very clear binding
of the to units together, however was problematic if users establish
mounnts manually with different block device sources than our
configuration defines, as we there might come to the conclusion that the
backing device was absent and thus we need to umount again what the user
mounted. By combining Requires= with the new StopPropagatedFrom= (i.e.
the inverse PropagateStopTo=) we can get behaviour that matches BindsTo=
in every single atom but one: UNIT_ATOM_CANNOT_BE_ACTIVE_WITHOUT is
absent, and hence the level-triggered logic doesn't apply.

Let's add an implicit reverse dep OnFailureOf=. This is exposed via the
bus to make things more debuggable: you can now ask systemd for which
units a specific unit is the failure handler.
OnFailure= was the only dependency type that had no inverse, this fixes
that.
Now that deps are a bit cheaper, it should be OK to add deps that only
serve debug purposes.
The slice a unit is assigned to is currently a UnitRef reference. Let's
turn it into a proper dependency, to simplify and clean up code a bit.
Now that new dep types are cheaper, deps should generally be preferable
over everything else, if the concept applies.
This brings one major benefit: we often have to iterate through all unit
a slice contains. So far we iterated through all Before= dependencies of
the slice unit to achieve that, filtering out unrelated units, and
taking benefit of the fact that slice units are implicitly ordered
Before= the units they contain. By making Slice= a proper dependency,
and having an accompanying SliceOf= dependency type, this is much
simpler and nicer as we can directly enumerate the units a slice
contains.
The forward dependency is actually called InSlice internally, since we
already used the UNIT_SLICE name as UnitType field. However, since we
don't intend to expose the dependency to users as dep anyway (we already
have the regular Slice D-Bus property for this) this shouldn't matter.
The SliceOf= implicit dependency type (the erverse of Slice=/InSlice=)
is exported over the bus, to make things a bit nicer to debug and
discoverable.
Previously, when a link has already in a numbered group, we cannot
remove the link from the group.
This also fixes the range mentioned in the man page.
This is also not entirely obvious. I think the code I came
up with is pretty elegant ;] The final part of of the code that makes
use of the parsed data is kept very similar to the shell code on purpose,
even though it could be written a bit more idiomatically.
Let's order the fields from the most general to least: os name, os variant, os
version, machine-parseable version details, metadata, special settings. I added
section headers to roughly group the settings. The division is not strict,
because for example CPE_NAME also includes the version, and PRETTY_NAME may
too, but it still makes it easier to find the right name.
Also split out Examples to separate paragraphs:
almost all descriptions had "Example:" at the end, where multiple
examples were listed. Splitting this out to separate paragraphs
makes the whole thing much easier to read.
Add missing markup and punctuation while at it.
About
- If not set, defaults to <literal>NAME=Linux</literal>.
+ If not set, a default of <literal>NAME=Linux</literal> may be used.
and similar changes: in many circumstances, if this is not set, no value should
be used. The fallback mostly make sense when we need to present something to the
user. So let's reword this to not imply that the default is necessary.
