When running an image that cannot be mounted (e.g.: key missing intentionally
for development purposes), there's a retry loop that takes some time
and slows development down. Add an env var to disable it.
varlink_server_listen_auto() is supposed to be the one-stop solution for
turning simple command line tools into IPC services. They aren't easy to
test/debug however, since you have to invoke them through a service
manager.
Let's make this easier: if the SYSTEMD_VARLINK_LISTEN env var is set,
let's listen on the socket specified therein. This makes things easier
to gdb: just run the service from the cmdline.
To make things symmetric to the $SYSTEMD_SSH logic that the varlink
transport supports, let's also honour such a variable in sd-bus when
picking ssh transport.
This uses openssh 9.4's -W support for AF_UNIX. Unfortunately older versions
don't work with this, and I couldn#t figure a way that would work for
older versions too, would not be racy and where we'd still could keep
track of the forked off ssh process.
Unfortunately, on older versions -W will just hang (because it tries to
resolve the AF_UNIX path as regular host name), which sucks, but hopefully this
issue will go away sooner or later on its own, as distributions update.
Fedora is still stuck at 9.3 at the time of posting this (even on
Fedora), even though 9.4, 9.5, 9.6 have all already been released by
now.
Example:
varlinkctl call -j ssh:root@somehost:/run/systemd/io.systemd.Credentials io.systemd.Credentials.Encrypt '{"text":"foobar"}'
Otherwise, udev workers cannot detect slow programs invoked by
IMPORT{program}=, PROGRAM=, or RUN=, and whole worker process may be
killed.
Fixes#30436.

Same as $KERNEL_INSTALL_BYPASS, but for hwdb. This will speed up
cross architecture image builds in mkosi as I can disable package
managers from running the costly hwdb update stuff in qemu user
mode and run it myself with a native systemd-hwdb with --root=.
This code doesn't link when gcc+lld is used:
$ LDFLAGS=-fuse-ld=lld meson setup build-lld && ninja -C build-lld udevadm
...
ld.lld: error: src/shared/libsystemd-shared-255.a(libsystemd-shared-255.a.p/cryptsetup-util.c.o):
symbol crypt_token_external_path@@ has undefined version
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
As a work-around, restrict it to developer mode.
Closes https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/30218.
don't let the devices to be announced just as model "Linux". Let's instead
propagate the underlying block device's model. Also do something
reasonably smart for the serial and firmware version fields.
Introduce a new env variable $SYSTEMD_NSPAWN_CHECK_OS_RELEASE, that can
be used to disable the os-release check for bootable OS trees. Useful
when trying to boot a container with empty /etc/ and bind-mounted /usr/.
Resolves: #29185
I tried to get something similar upstream:
https://gitlab.com/cryptsetup/cryptsetup/-/issues/846
But no luck, it was suggested I use ELF interposition instead. Hence,
let's do so (but not via ugly LD_PRELOAD, but simply by overriding the
relevant symbol natively in our own code).
This makes debugging tokens a ton easier.
Automatically softreboot if the nextroot has been set up with an OS
tree, or automatically kexec if a kernel has been loaded with kexec
--load.
Add SYSTEMCTL_SKIP_AUTO_KEXEC and SYSTEMCTL_SKIP_AUTO_SOFT_REBOOT to
skip the automated switchover.
On normal systems, triggering a timeout should be a bug in code or
configuration error, so I do not think we should extend the default
timeout. Also, we should not introduce a 'first class' configuration
option about that. But, making it configurable may be useful for cases
such that "an extremely highly utilized system (lots of OOM kills,
very high CPU utilization, etc)".
Closes#25441.
The tool initially just measured the boot phase, but was subsequently
extended to measure file system and machine IDs, too. At AllSystemsGo
there were request to add more, and make the tool generically
accessible.
Hence, let's rename the binary (but not the pcrphase services), to make
clear the tool is not just measureing the boot phase, but a lot of other
things too.
The tool is located in /usr/lib/ and still relatively new, hence let's
just rename the binary and be done with it, while keeping the unit names
stable.
While we are at it, also move the tool out of src/boot/ and into its own
src/pcrextend/ dir, since it's not really doing boot related stuff
anymore.
Before 7cd43e34c5, it was possible to use
SYSTEMD_PROC_CMDLINE=systemd.condition-first-boot to override autodetection.
But now this doesn't work anymore, and it's useful to be able to do that for
testing.
To make it consistent with other env vars, e.g. $SYSTEMD_ESP_PATH or
$SYSTEMD_XBOOTLDR_PATH.
This is useful when the root is specified by a file descriptor, instead
of a path.
Fixes RHBZ#2183546 (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2183546).
Previously, journal file is always compressed with the default algorithm
set at compile time. So, if a newer algorithm is used, journal files
cannot be read by older version of journalctl that does not support the
algorithm.

Let's introduce a common implementation of a function that checks
whether we are booted on a kernel with systemd-stub that has TPM PCR
measurements enabled. Do our own userspace measurements only if we
detect that.
PCRs are scarce and most likely there are projects which already make
use of them in other ways. Hence, instead of blindly stepping into their
territory let's conditionalize things so that people have to explicitly
buy into our PCR assignments before we start measuring things into them.
Specifically bind everything to an UKI that reported measurements.
This was previously already implemented in systemd-pcrphase, but with
this change we expand this to all tools that process PCR measurement
settings.
The env var to override the check is renamed to SYSTEMD_FORCE_MEASURE,
to make it more generic (since we'll use it at multiple places now).
This is not a compat break, since the original env var for that was not
included in any stable release yet.
This commit adds support for attaching extra metadata to log
messages written to the journal via log.h. We keep track of a
thread local log context in log.c onto which we can push extra
metadata fields that should be logged. Once a field is no longer
relevant, it can be popped again from the log context.
On top of this, we then add macros to allow pushing extra fields
onto the log context.
LOG_CONTEXT_PUSH() will push the provided field onto the log context
and pop the last field from the log context when the current block
ends. LOG_CONTEXT_PUSH_STRV() will do the same but for all fields in
the given strv.
Using the macros is as simple as putting them anywhere inside a block
to add a field to all following log messages logged from inside that
block.
void myfunction(...) {
...
LOG_CONTEXT_PUSH("MYMETADATA=abc");
// Every journal message logged will now have the MYMETADATA=abc
// field included.
}
For convenience, there's also LOG_CONTEXT_PUSHF() to allow constructing
the field to be logged using printf() syntax.
log_context_new()/log_context_free() can be used to attach a log context
to an async operation by storing it in the associated userdata struct.
When we dissect images automatically, let's be a bit more conservative
with the file system types we are willing to mount: only mount common
file systems automatically.
Explicit mounts requested by admins should always be OK, but when we do
automatic mounts, let's not permit barely maintained, possibly legacy
file systems.
The list for now covers the four common writable and two common
read-only file systems. Sooner or later we might want to add more to the
list.
Also, it might make sense to eventually make this configurable via the
image dissection policy logic.
This is useful to force off fancy unicode glyph use (i.e. use "->"
instead of "→"), which is useful in tests where locales might be
missing, and thus control via $LC_CTYPE is not reliable.
Use this in TEST-58, to ensure the output checks we do aren't confused
by missing these glyphs being unicode or not.
This reverts commit 1f22621ba3.
As described in the reverted commit, we don't want to get rid of the check
completely. But the check requires opting-in by setting SYSTEMD_IN_INITRD=lenient,
which is cumbersome and doesn't seem to actually happen.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2137631 is caused by systemd refusing
to treat the system as an initrd because overlayfs is used. Let's revert this
approach and do something that doesn't require opt-in instead.
I don't think it makes sense to keep support for "SYSTEMD_IN_INITRD=lenient" or
"SYSTEMD_IN_INITRD=auto". To get "auto" behaviour, just unset the option. And
"lenient" will be reimplemented as a better check. Thus the changes to the
option interface are completely reverted.
We also add an environment variable $SYSTEMD_JOURNAL_COMPACT that
can be used to disable compact mode if needed (similar to
$SYSTEMD_JOURNAL_KEYED_HASH).
