* nspawn,pid1: pass "inaccessible" nodes from cntr mgr to pid1 payload via ↵Lennart Poettering2020-09-021-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | /run/host Let's make /run/host the sole place we pass stuff from host to container in and place the "inaccessible" nodes in /run/host too. In contrast to the previous two commits this is a minor compat break, but not a relevant one I think. Previously the container manager would place these nodes in /run/systemd/inaccessible/ and that's where PID 1 in the container would try to add them too when missing. Container manager and PID 1 in the container would thus manage the same dir together. With this change the container manager now passes an immutable directory to the container and leaves /run/systemd entirely untouched, and managed exclusively by PID 1 inside the container, which is nice to have clear separation on who manages what. In order to make sure systemd then usses the /run/host/inaccesible/ nodes this commit changes PID 1 to look for that dir and if it exists will symlink it to /run/systemd/inaccessible. Now, this will work fine if new nspawn and new pid 1 in the container work together. as then the symlink is created and the difference between the two dirs won't matter. For the case where an old nspawn invokes a new PID 1: in this case things work as they always worked: the dir is managed together. For the case where different container manager invokes a new PID 1: in this case the nodes aren't typically passed in, and PID 1 in the container will try to create them and will likely fail partially (though gracefully) when trying to create char/block device nodes. THis is fine though as there are fallbacks in place for that case. For the case where a new nspawn invokes an old PID1: this is were the (minor) incompatibily happens: in this case new nspawn will place the nodes in the /run/host/inaccessible/ subdir, but the PID 1 in the container won't look for them there. Since the nodes are also not pre-created in /run/systed/inaccessible/ PID 1 will try to create them there as if a different container manager sets them up. This is of course not sexy, but is not a total loss, since as mentioned fallbacks are in place anyway. Hence I think it's OK to accept this minor incompatibility.

* dev-setup: generalize logic we use to create "inaccessible" device nodesLennart Poettering2018-11-291-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | Let's generalize this, so that we can use this in nspawn later on, which is pretty useful as we need to be able to mask files from the inner child of nspawn too, where the host's /run/systemd/inaccessible directory is not visible anymore. Moreover, if nspawn can create these nodes on its own before the payload this means the payload can run with fewer privileges.
* tree-wide: remove Lennart's copyright linesLennart Poettering2018-06-141-4/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | These lines are generally out-of-date, incomplete and unnecessary. With SPDX and git repository much more accurate and fine grained information about licensing and authorship is available, hence let's drop the per-file copyright notice. Of course, removing copyright lines of others is problematic, hence this commit only removes my own lines and leaves all others untouched. It might be nicer if sooner or later those could go away too, making git the only and accurate source of authorship information.
* tree-wide: drop 'This file is part of systemd' blurbLennart Poettering2018-06-141-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This part of the copyright blurb stems from the GPL use recommendations: https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.en.html The concept appears to originate in times where version control was per file, instead of per tree, and was a way to glue the files together. Ultimately, we nowadays don't live in that world anymore, and this information is entirely useless anyway, as people are very welcome to copy these files into any projects they like, and they shouldn't have to change bits that are part of our copyright header for that. hence, let's just get rid of this old cruft, and shorten our codebase a bit.
* tree-wide: drop license boilerplateZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2018-04-061-13/+0
| | | | | | | | | | Files which are installed as-is (any .service and other unit files, .conf files, .policy files, etc), are left as is. My assumption is that SPDX identifiers are not yet that well known, so it's better to retain the extended header to avoid any doubt. I also kept any copyright lines. We can probably remove them, but it'd nice to obtain explicit acks from all involved authors before doing that.

* tree-wide: remove Emacs lines from all filesDaniel Mack2016-02-101-2/+0
| | | | | This should be handled fine now by .dir-locals.el, so need to carry that stuff in every file.

* exec: introduce PrivateDevices= switch to provide services with a private /devLennart Poettering2014-01-201-1/+1
| | | | | | Similar to PrivateNetwork=, PrivateTmp= introduce PrivateDevices= that sets up a private /dev with only the API pseudo-devices like /dev/null, /dev/zero, /dev/random, but not any physical devices in them.
* dev-setup: allow a path prefix for use in chrootsDave Reisner2012-08-211-5/+2
| | | | | With this adjustment, we can reuse this code elsewhere, such as in nspawn.
