It is used by udevd and networkd. Since udevd is enabled statically, let's also
change the preset to "on". networkd is opt-in, so let's pull in the generator
when enabling networkd too.
Fixes#21626. (The bug report talks about /run, but the issue is actually with
/tmp.) People use /tmp for various things that fit in memory, e.g. unpacking
packages, and 400k is not much. Let's raise is a bit.
Programs run by udev triggers may need to execute the bpf() syscall. Even more
so, since on a cgroup v2 system, the only way to set up device access filtering
is to install a BPF program on the cgroup in question and one way of passing
data to such program is through BPF maps, which can only be access using the
bpf() syscall. One such use case was identified in RHBZ#2025264 related to
snap-device-helper, and led to RHBZ#2027627 being filed.
Unfortunately there is no finer grained control over what gets passed in the
syscall, so just enable bpf() and leave fine grained mediation to other
security layers (eg. SELinux).

Due to the fact that systemd-journal-flush.service has
"Requires=systemd-journald.service", this service is stopped too when journald
is requested to do so.
However stopping systemd-journal-flush.service implies that journald
relinquishes /var hence implicitly switching back to the volatile storage
mode and removing /run/systemd/journal/flushed.
If journald is started afterwards, it will run in volatile storage mode
regardless of the value of 'Storage=' as it believes now that /var is not yet
ready (because the flushed flag is missing).
Because this flag is mainly an indication for journald that the initialization
of /var/log/journal (during the boot process) has been done,
systemd-journal-flush.service shouldn't be tied to the state of journald itself
but to the state of /var/log/journal, hence to the state of the system.
Parsing objects is risky as data could be malformed or malicious,
so avoid doing that from the main systemd-coredump process and
instead fork another process, and set it to avoid generating
core files itself.
Users may use rules that refer to binaries e.g. in /opt or /usr/local,
and those directories may be separate mount points. We don't need the
binfmt rules in early boot, so let's delay the service so that we can
rely on the full local filesystem being visible.
Fixes#21178.
When using "capture : true" in custom_target()s the mode of the source
file is not preserved when the generated file is not installed and so
needs to be tweaked manually. Switch from output capture to creating the
target file and copy the permissions from the input file.

If the tty arg is set to "-", agetty uses the stdin fd as the tty.
Let's pass the tty this way so that we keep an fd open to the tty
at all times. If all fd's to a tty are closed, the kernel might
reset the tty which we want to avoid.
This adds support for dm integrity targets and an associated
/etc/integritytab file which is required as the dm integrity device
super block doesn't include all of the required metadata to bring up
the device correctly. See integritytab man page for details.
Let's make it slightly more likely that a per-user service manager is
killed than any system service. We use a conservative 100 (from a range
that goes all the way to 1000).
Replaces: #17426
Together with the previous commit this means: system manager and system
services are placed at OOM score adjustment 0 (specifically: they
inherit kernel default of 0). User service manager (both for root and
non-root) are placed at 100. User services for non-root are placed at
200, those for root inherit 100.
Note that processes forked off the user *sessions* (i.e. not forked off
the per-user service manager) remain at 0 (e.g. the shell process
created by a tty or ssh login). This probably should be
addressed too one day (maybe in pam_systemd?), but is not covered here.
Compared to PID1 where systemd-oomd has to be the client to PID1
because PID1 is a more privileged process than systemd-oomd, systemd-oomd
is the more privileged process compared to a user manager so we have
user managers be the client whereas systemd-oomd is now the server.
The same varlink protocol is used between user managers and systemd-oomd
to deliver ManagedOOM property updates. systemd-oomd now sets up a varlink
server that user managers connect to to send ManagedOOM property updates.
We also add extra validation to make sure that non-root senders don't
send updates for cgroups they don't own.
The integration test was extended to repeat the chill/bloat test using
a user manager instead of PID1.
In 2020 mount.cifs started to require a bunch for caps to work. let's
add them to the capability bounding set.
Also, SMB support obviously needs network access, hence open that up.

Normally, these services are killed because we run isolate. But I booted into
emergency mode (because of a futher bug with us timing out improperly on the
luks password prompt), and then continuted to the host system by running
'systemctl start systemd-switch-root.service'. My error, but the results are
confusing and bad: systemd in the host sees 'systemd-tmpfiles-setup.service'
as started successfully, and doesn't restart it, so the setup for /tmp/.X11 is
not done and gdm.service fails. So while we wouldn't encounter this during
normal successful boot, I think it's good to make this more robust.
The dep is added to systemd-tmpfiles-{setup,clean}, because /tmp is not
propagated over switch-root. /dev is, so I didn't touch
systemd-tmpfiles-setup-dev.service.
Boot loaders are software like any other, and hence muse be updated in
regular intervals. Let's add a simple (optional) service that updates
sd-boot automatically from the host if it is found installed but
out-of-date in the ESP.
Note that traditional distros probably should invoke "bootctl update"
directly from the package scripts whenver they update the sd-boot
package. This new service is primarily intended for image-based update
systems, i.e. where the rootfs or /usr are atomically updated in A/B
style and where the current boot loader should be synced into the ESP
from the currently booted image every now and then. It can also act as
safety net if the packaging scripts in classic systems are't doing the
bootctl update stuff themselves.
Since updating boot loaders mit be a tiny bit risky (even though we try
really hard to make them robust, by fsck'ing the ESP and mounting it only on
demand, by doing updates mostly as single file updates and by fsync()ing
heavily) this is an optional feature, i.e. subject to "systemctl
enable". However, since it's the right thing to do I think, it's enabled
by default via the preset logic.
Note that the updating logic is implemented gracefully: i.e. it's a NOP
if the boot loader is already new enough, or was never installed.
"Update about" is not gramatically correct. I also think saying "Record" makes
this easier to understand for people who don't necessarilly know what UTMP is.
In general, it's not very usuful to repeat the unit name as the description.
Especially when the word is a common name and if somebody doesn't understand
the meaning immediately, they are not going to gain anything from the
repeat either, e.g. "halt", "swap".
In the status-unit-format=combined output parentheses are used around
Description, so avoid using parenthesis in the Description itself.
Since d8f9686c0f we use the chattr +i flag
for marking containers in directories as reead-only. But to do so we
need the cap for it, hence grant it.

I'm working on building initramfs images directly from normal packages, and it
doesn't make sense for those units to be started. Pristine system rpms need to
behave correctly as much as possible also in the initrd, and those units are
enabled by the rpms. There usually isn't enough time for the timer to actually
fire, but starting it gives a line on the console and generally looks confusing
and sloppy. Flushing the journal means that its actually lost, since the real
/var is not available yet.
Another approach would be not enable those units, but right now they are
statically enabled, and changing that would be more work, and doesn't really
seem necessary, since the condition checks are very quick.
Checking for /etc/initrd-release is the standard condition that the initrd
units use, so let's do the same here.
The comment talks about upstream development steps and doesn't make
sense for users. We used special '## ' syntax to strip it out during
build, but it got inadvertently reformatted as a normal comment
in 3982becc92.
We don't need two (and half) templating systems anymore, yay!
I'm keeping the changes minimal, to make the diff manageable. Some enhancements
due to a better templating system might be possible in the future.
For handling of '## ' — see the next commit.
Old meson fails with:
Element not a string: [<Holder: <ExternalProgram 'sh' -> ['/bin/sh']>>, '-c', 'test -n "$DESTDIR" || /bin/journalctl --update-catalog']
I'm doing it as a revert so that it's easy to undo the revert when we require
newer meson. The effect is not so bad, maybe a dozen or so lines about finding
'sh'.

Let's suffer one message only for each command. Hopefully we can silence
even this when https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/8642 is
resolved.
This reverts commit 7c20dd4b6e.
Debian has now been updated to patch the issue, so SemaphoreCI should
no longer fail. The fix has also been backported to the affected
stable branches.
