To be considered by timedated for NTP a package simply has to drop in
/usr/lib/systemd/ntp-units.d/foobar.list and write one or more unit
names into it. The first one listed is the one that is enabled.
This naming convention is more inline with other systemd daemon
unit names (systemd-logind.service, systemd-localed.service etc)
The companion .socket units have also been renamed, however the
-trigger and -settle units keep their current name as these are
not directly related to daemon process itself.
The previous systemd-timedated-ntp.target was suffering by the problem
that NTP implementations enabled via the machanism could not be disabled
the obvious way on the "systemctl disable" command line. Replace
systemd-timedated-ntp.target by a list of implementations we try in
turn. The list is encoded in $pkgdatadir/ntp-units.
This replaces the symlink based dependency by an explicit one in the
unit file so that we avoid the dangling symlink when no display manager
is installed.
The rule is that units that encapsulate our own code are prefixed with
"systemd-". Since the fsck units invoke our own code, hence add the
missing prefix. Since a long long time the fsck units didn't invoke the
naked fsck binaries anymore, and it is unlikely that this well ever
change. On the opposite: the code in systemd-fsck will probably get more
complex over time to handle fsck progress to plymouth forwarding.
Same for quotacheck (but not quotaon!)
This makes sure that
systemctl status /home
is implicitly translated to:
systemctl status /home.mount
Similar, /dev/foobar becomes dev-foobar.device.
Also, all characters that cannot be part of a unit name are implicitly
escaped.
Since the binary name is now hidden away in /usr/lib/ the primary user
handle for the udev service is the unit name, hence change the man page
to be available under the unit name, and make the binary name an alias
for it.
since the binaries share much of the same code and we better load only
one binary instead of two from disk at early boot let's merge the three
readahead binaries into one. This also allows us to drop a lot of
duplicated code.
Let's try to standardize a bit the RPM macros used for
installing/uninstalling services.
This only covers the non-SysV compat bits, since that tends to vary
widely between the various distros.
Usage:
Add %{?systemd_requires} to the header of the spec file. And then:
%post
%systemd_post foobar.service
%preun
%systemd_preun foobar.service
%postun
%systemd_postun foobar.service
And, instead of the latter, in case the service shall be restarted on updates:
%postun
%systemd_postun_restart foobar.service

This patch adds code to compile 'systemd-readahead-analyze' and install
it into $bindir.
Use this program to parse the contents of the readahead pack file, or
an arbitrary pack file and display which files are listed in it, and
how much of the files are requested to be readahead.
This code is not new - it's partially taken from sreadahead (formerly
maintained by Arjan van der Ven and me, and was originally written
by me), and adapted with the right bits to parse the systemd
readahead pack files, which are slightly different in format.
v2 adds a common READAHEAD_PACK_FILE_VERSION used in all the code
to provide a quick way to assure all these programs are always
synchronized. v3 fixes the integer math.
This takes handling of chassis power and sleep keys as well as the lid
switch over from acpid.
This logic is enabled by default for power and sleep keys, but not for
the lid switch.
If a graphical session is in the foreground no action is taken under the
assumption that the graphical session does this.
In rescue mode let's not establish all sockets, so that we don't end up
starting a lot of additional services automatically.
Instead of pulling in basic.target we now only pull in sysinit.target
which pulls in local-fs.target and swap.target. That way rescue mode has
all the really basic setup around, but normal services are not started
and not autostarted either.
RequiresMountsFor= is a shortcut for adding requires and after
dependencies to all mount units neeed for the specified paths.
This solves a couple of issues regarding dep loop cycles for encrypted
swap.
Two of our current job types are special:
JOB_TRY_RESTART, JOB_RELOAD_OR_START.
They differ from other job types by being sensitive to the unit active state.
They perform some action when the unit is active and some other action
otherwise. This raises a question: when exactly should the unit state be
checked to make the decision?
Currently the unit state is checked when the job becomes runnable. It's more
sensible to check the state immediately when the job is added by the user.
When the user types "systemctl try-restart foo.service", he really intends
to restart the service if it's running right now. If it isn't running right
now, the restart is pointless.
Consider the example (from Bugzilla[1]):
sleep.service takes some time to start.
hello.service has After=sleep.service.
Both services get started. Two jobs will appear:
hello.service/start waiting
sleep.service/start running
Then someone runs "systemctl try-restart hello.service".
Currently the try-restart operation will block and wait for
sleep.service/start to complete.
The correct result is to complete the try-restart operation immediately
with success, because hello.service is not running. The two original
jobs must not be disturbed by this.
To fix this we introduce two new concepts:
- a new job type: JOB_NOP
A JOB_NOP job does not do anything to the unit. It does not pull in any
dependencies. It is always immediately runnable. When installed to a unit,
it sits in a special slot (u->nop_job) where it never conflicts with
the installed job (u->job) of a different type. It never merges with jobs
of other types, but it can merge into an already installed JOB_NOP job.
- "collapsing" of job types
When a job of one of the two special types is added, the state of the unit
is checked immediately and the job type changes:
JOB_TRY_RESTART -> JOB_RESTART or JOB_NOP
JOB_RELOAD_OR_START -> JOB_RELOAD or JOB_START
Should a job type JOB_RELOAD_OR_START appear later during job merging, it
collapses immediately afterwards.
Collapsing actually makes some things simpler, because there are now fewer
job types that are allowed in the transaction.

We shouldn't hardcode the name of the NTP implementation in the
timedated mechanism, especially since Fedora currently switched from NTP
to chrony.
This patch introduces a new target that is enabled/disabled instead of
the actual NTP implementation. The various NTP implementations should
then add .wants/ symlinks to their services and BindTo back to the
target, so that their implementations are started/stopped jointly with
the target.

manager.c takes care of the main loop, unit management, signal handling, ...
transaction.c computes transactions.

We finally got the OK from all contributors with non-trivial commits to
relicense systemd from GPL2+ to LGPL2.1+.
Some udev bits continue to be GPL2+ for now, but we are looking into
relicensing them too, to allow free copy/paste of all code within
systemd.
The bits that used to be MIT continue to be MIT.
The big benefit of the relicensing is that closed source code may now
link against libsystemd-login.so and friends.
This extends the shutdownd interface to expose schedule shutdown
information in /run/systemd/shutdown/schedule.
This also cleans up the shutdownd protocol and documents it in a header
file sd-shutdown.h.
This is supposed to be used by client code that wants to control and
monitor scheduled shutdown.
This separates user/group NSS lookups from host/network NSS lookups.
By default order all network mounts after host/network NSS lookups now,
and logind execution after user/group NSS lookups.
