* Drop dbus activation stub serviceMichael Biebl2019-08-301-3/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes the following problem: > At the very end of the boot, just after the first user logs in > (usually using sddm / X) I get the following messages in my logs: > Nov 18 07:02:33 samd dbus-daemon[2879]: [session uid=1000 pid=2877] Activated service 'org.freedesktop.systemd1' failed: Process org.freedesktop.systemd1 exited with status 1 > Nov 18 07:02:33 samd dbus-daemon[2879]: [session uid=1000 pid=2877] Activated service 'org.freedesktop.systemd1' failed: Process org.freedesktop.systemd1 exited with status 1 These messages are caused by the "stub" service files that systemd installs. It installed them because early versions of systemd activation required them to exist. Since dbus 1.11.0, a dbus-daemon that is run with --systemd-activation automatically assumes that o.fd.systemd1 is an activatable service. As a result, with a new enough dbus version, /usr/share/dbus-1/services/org.freedesktop.systemd1.service and /usr/share/dbus-1/system-services/org.freedesktop.systemd1.service should become unnecessary, and they can be removed. dbus 1.11.0 was released 2015-12-02.

* README: mention that we need tzdata >= 2014fZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2019-02-281-0/+1
| | | | | | | zone1970.tab was added in that version. Not that it makes sense to use outdata timezone tables, but people do strange things. C.f. https://github.com/nodatime/nodatime/issues/319.
* readme: Minor style and spacing fixFilipe Brandenburger2019-02-151-2/+1
| | | | | | Fix section header for stable branches and backports. All the other headings end in a colon and have no blank lines between them and the body of the section, so fix this one accordingly.

* Revert "pam_systemd: drop setting DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS"Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2019-01-041-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit 2b2b7228bffef626fe8e9f131095995f3d50ee3b. Fixes #11293. Removing the environment variable causes problems, e.g. Xfce and Chromium and ... don't communicate with the running dbus instance. If they attempt to start their own instance, things become even more confusing. Those packages could be fixed one by one, but removing the variable right now is causing too many problems.
* Drop support for lz4 < 1.3.0Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2018-10-291-1/+1
| | | | | | lz4-r130 was released on May 29th, 2015. Let's drop the work-around for older versions. In particular, we won't test any new code against those ancient releases, so we shouldn't pretend they are supported.
* resolved: basic OpenSSL support for DNS-over-TLSIwan Timmer2018-07-271-1/+2
| | | | | | This provides basic OpenSSL support without optimizations like TCP Fast Open and TLS Session Tickets. Notice only a single SSL library can be enabled at a time and therefore journald functions provided by GnuTLS will be disabled when using OpenSSL. Fixes #9531
* pam_systemd: drop setting DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESSLennart Poettering2018-07-251-1/+1
| | | | | | | Since D-Bus 1.9.14 (2015-03-02) dbus looks in $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/bus for the system bus on its own, hence we can finally drop setting this environment variable. gdbus since glib 2.45.3 (June 2015) also supports it.
* meson: use has_link_argument() and friendsYu Watanabe2018-07-241-1/+1
| | | | | This bumps the minimum required version of meson to 0.46, as `has_link_argument()` and friends are supported since 0.46.
* meson: use integer type in optionsYu Watanabe2018-07-241-1/+1
| | | | | | This bumps the minimum required version of meson to 0.45 and python to 3.5, as integer type option is supported since meson-0.45 and meson-0.45 requires python-3.5.
* README: clarify that not only systemd should use prefix=/usr, but its deps tooLennart Poettering2018-07-171-4/+6
| | | | See: #9547
* tree-wide: use "polkit" to refer to PolicyKit/polkitZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2018-07-161-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | Back in 2012 the project was renamed, see the release notes for v 0.105 [https://cgit.freedesktop.org/polkit/tree/NEWS#n754]. Let's update our documentation and comments to do the same. Referring to PolicyKit is confusing to users because at the time the polkit api changed too, and we support the new version. I updated NEWS too, since all the references to PolicyKit there were added after the rename. "PolicyKit" is unchanged in various URLs and method call names.
* meson: check whether gnutls supports TCP fast openYu Watanabe2018-06-261-0/+1
| | | | Fixes #9403
* Turn VALGRIND variable into a meson configuration switchZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2018-05-171-7/+6
| | | | | | | | | | Configuration through environment variable is inconvenient with meson, because they cannot be convieniently changed and/or are not preserved during reconfiguration (https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/1503). This adds -Dvalgrind=true/false, which has the advantage that it can be set at any time with meson configure -Dvalgrind=... and ninja will rebuild targets as necessary. Additional minor advantages are better consistency with the options for hashmap debugging, and typo avoidance with '#if' instead of '#ifdef'.

* README: mention systemd-stableZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2018-03-261-0/+11
| | | | | | | Fixes #8564. https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/Backports/ has already been adjusted.
* README: fix context for CONFIG_DEVPTS_MULTIPLE_INSTANCESAlan Jenkins2018-01-171-3/+5
| | | | | | | | | | `newinstance` (and `ptmxmode`) options of devpts are _not_ used by PrivateDevices=. (/dev/pts is shared, similar to how /dev/shm and /dev/mqueue are handled). It is used by nspawn containers though. Also CONFIG_DEVPTS_MULTIPLE_INSTANCES was removed in 4.7-rc2 https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/eedf265aa003b4781de24cfed40a655a664457e6 and no longer needs to be set, so make that clearer to avoid confusion.
* README: EXT4_POSIX_ACL -> EXT4_FS_POSIX_ACL (#7799)George G2018-01-041-1/+1
| | | | EXT4_POSIX_ACL doesn't exist.
* README: add requirements for IPAddress{Allow,Deny} (#7414)Andrew Jeddeloh2017-11-211-0/+4
| | | Document kernel options needed for IPAddress{Allow,Deny}.
* README,sysusers: complete and order list of default udev groups we needLennart Poettering2017-11-201-1/+1
| | | | | Let's make sure the list of default udev groups we need are ordered in README and in the sysusers.d snippet, and both are complete.
* README: slightly update the section about split /usrLennart Poettering2017-11-201-10/+10
| | | | | It's fine if /usr is actually on a separate fs. What matters is that it is mounted early enough. Say so.
* README: document that prefix *must* be /usr and nss-systemd is not an optionLennart Poettering2017-11-201-0/+10
| | | | See: #7374
* po: add a copy of polkit its rulesZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2017-11-141-1/+1
| | | | | It's just a few lines, but this way we avoid a dependency on polkit, and can use meson's i18n stuff on older distros.
* i18n: drop intltool use, use meson's merge_file directlyZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2017-11-131-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This didn't work during the initial conversion to meson, but should now. A sufficiently new polkit is also required, for the .its rules files. Note that https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/blob/master/docs/markdown/i18n-module.md says that 'install' argument was added in meson 0.43.0. If this is accurate, warnigs might be generated with older mesons. Fedora has 0.43.0 across the board, but other distros probably don't, but I guess that a warning is prefereable to having to update do latest meson. The advantages are: - one less dependency (intltool) - using the generic implementation instead of our open-coded calls - we don't need to use the fake "_" prefixes in XML Replaces #1609, fixes #7300.
* build-sys: require libmount >= 2.30 (#6795)Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2017-09-151-3/+2
| | | | | | | | | | Fixes #4871. The new libmount has two changes relevant for us: - x-* options are propagated to /run/mount/utab and are visible through libmount (fixes #4817). - umount -c now really works (partially solves #6115).
* README: note that installing valgrind-devel maybe useful to developers (#6502)Michal Sekletar2017-08-301-3/+6
| | | | | Commit also mentions that when running under valgrind we actually don't execve() systemd-shutdown. We have a comment about this in the code, but being upfront about this change in behavior doesn't hurt.
* Revert "README: document that gperf 3.1 is required for building now" (#6541)Mike Gilbert2017-08-051-1/+1
| | | | | | This reverts commit 4f5e972279d9ee6192930a0392f49cae9ad45daa. Building with gperf 3.0 works just fine; we had an autoconf check to determine the correct data types, and this check was ported to meson.
* modprobe.d: ship drop-in to set bonding max_bonds to 0 (#6448)Dimitri John Ledkov2017-08-021-5/+4
| | | | | | This allows networkd to correctly manage bond0 using networkd, when requested by the user. Fixes #5971 #6184
* README: document that max_bonds=0 is the way to go for bonding.koLennart Poettering2017-07-241-0/+9
| | | | | | Everything else just is annoying, hence let's list this among the requirements we make on the kernel in order to minimize confusion leading to #6184 and suchlike.

|\ | | | | Use idn2 instead of idn
| * resolved: support libidn2 in addition to libidnZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2017-05-111-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | libidn2 2.0.0 supports IDNA2008, in contrast to libidn which supports IDNA2003. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1449145 From that bug report: Internationalized domain names exist for quite some time (IDNA2003), although the protocols describing them have evolved in an incompatible way (IDNA2008). These incompatibilities will prevent applications written for IDNA2003 to access certain problematic domain names defined with IDNA2008, e.g., faß.de is translated to domain xn--fa-hia.de with IDNA2008, while in IDNA2003 it is translated to fass.de domain. That not only causes incompatibility problems, but may be used as an attack vector to redirect users to different web sites. v2: - keep libidn support - require libidn2 >= 2.0.0 v3: - keep dns_name_apply_idna caller dumb, and keep the #ifdefs inside of the function. - use both ±IDN and ±IDN2 in the version string

* Avoid strict DM interface version dependencies (#5519)Michael Biebl2017-03-021-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Compiling against the dm-ioctl.h header as provided by the Linux kernel will embed the DM interface version number. Running an older kernel can result in an error like this on shutdown: Could not detach DM dm-11: ioctl mismatch, kernel(4.34.4), user(4.35.4) Work around this by shipping a local copy of dm-ioctl.h. We need at least the version from 3.13 for DM_DEFERRED_REMOVE [1], so bump the requirements in README accordingly.
