no-pager-255 was added in #29184, which I reviewed and agreed.
However, as #30887 came up, I reconsidered it a bit, and now
I actually think that this should be removed.
We add new tools that refer to these standard options. During
the process, some options are also promoted to be standard ones.
I think a more sane practice is to generally keep old tools in
the loop, rather than overloading the standard-options with versions.
This adds a tiny binary that is hooked into SSH client config via
ProxyCommand and which simply connects to an AF_UNIX or AF_VSOCK socket
of choice.
The syntax is as simple as this:
ssh unix/some/path # (this connects to AF_UNIX socket /some/path)
or:
ssh vsock/4711
I used "/" as separator of the protocol ID and the value since ":" is
already taken by SSH itself when doing sftp. And "@" is already taken
for separating the user name.
Without `--root` or `--image`, the `security` command inspects all currently
loaded service units if no unit name is specified. But with `--root` or
`--image` with `--offline=true`, the `security` command exits silently if no
unit name is specified.
Also, fixed description of `--root` and `--image` in the man page, and added
missing `--unit` option to help text.
man:
- `verify` requires an argument
- `security` does not require an argument
- `fdstore` requires an argument
- `image-policy` requires an argument
`--help` text:
- missing `image-policy` command
- `cat-config` requires NAME or PATH
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"}'
To me this is the last major basic functionality that couldn't be
configured via credentials: the network.
We do not invent any new format for this, but simply copy relevant creds
1:1 into /run/systemd/network/ to open up the full functionality of
networkd to VM hosts.
We already have specifiers that resolve to $XDG_STATE_HOME, and
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME. $XDG_DATA_HOME is in a similar vein.
It allows units belonging to the user service manager to correctly look
into ~/.local/share. I imagine this would be most useful inside of
condition checks (i.e. only run a service on session startup if some
data is not found in ~/.local/share) or in the inotify monitoring of a
.path unit
cryptenroll accepts only PKCS#11 URIs that match both a certificate and a private key in a token.
This patch allows users to provide a PKCS#11 URI that points to a certificate only, and makes possible to use output of some PKCS#11 tools directly.
Internally the patch changes 'type=cert' in the provided PKCS#11 URI to 'type=private' before storing in a LUKS2 header.
Fixes: #23479
This is what it is after all: encryption with a NULL key. This is more
descriptive, but also relevant since we want to use this kind of
credentials in a different context soon: for carrying pcrlock data into
a UKI. In that case we don#t want encryption, since the pcrlock data is
intended to help unlocking secrets, hence should not be a secret itself.
This only changes the code labels and the way this is labelled in the
output. We retain compat with the old name.
session-status automatically uses "auto" if no ID is specified,
but show-session shows the manager's properties. Let's document
these special values so that users of show-session can benefit too.
This commit introduces new D-Bus API, StartAuxiliaryScope(). It may be
used by services as part of the restart procedure. Service sends an
array of PID file descriptors corresponding to processes that are part
of the service and must continue running also after service restarts,
i.e. they haven't finished the job why they were spawned in the first
place (e.g. long running video transcoding job). Systemd creates new
scope unit for these processes and migrates them into it. Cgroup
properties of scope are copied from the service so it retains same
cgroup settings and limits as service had.
