has-overflow was a temporary hack that was removed in
844da987ef (Oct. 2016). All the makefiles
can be the same, and all the targets can be handled identically.
Before, we'd copy the test tree into nspawn-root, and run the tests from there.
This is OK, and doesn't actually take much extra time. But it uses quite a lot
of extra disk space. So let's make things a bit more efficient by running
directly from the image file.
We still run the unprivileged nspawn tests from a copy. Once the kernel
implements fs shift, we can do away with that too.
Before, we'd create a separate image for each test, in
/var/tmp/systemd-test.XXXXX/rootdisk.img. Most of the images
where very similar, except that each one had some unit files installed
specifically for the test. The installation of those custom unit files
was removed in previous commits (all the unit files are always installed).
The new approach is to only create as few distinct images as possible.
We have:
default.img: the "normal" image suitable for almost all the tests
basic.img: the same as default image but doesn't mask any services
cryptsetup.img: p2 is used for encrypted /var
badid.img: /etc/machine-id is overwritten with stuff
selinux.img: with selinux added for fun and fun
and a few others:
ls -l build/test/*img
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 38 Mar 21 21:23 build/test/badid.img -> /var/tmp/systemd-test.PJFFeo/badid.img
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 38 Mar 21 21:17 build/test/basic.img -> /var/tmp/systemd-test.na0xOI/basic.img
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 43 Mar 21 21:18 build/test/cryptsetup.img -> /var/tmp/systemd-test.Tzjv06/cryptsetup.img
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 40 Mar 21 21:19 build/test/default.img -> /var/tmp/systemd-test.EscAsS/default.img
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 39 Mar 21 21:22 build/test/nspawn.img -> /var/tmp/systemd-test.HSebKo/nspawn.img
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 40 Mar 21 21:20 build/test/selinux.img -> /var/tmp/systemd-test.daBjbx/selinux.img
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 39 Mar 21 21:21 build/test/test08.img -> /var/tmp/systemd-test.OgnN8Z/test08.img
I considered trying to use the same image everywhere. It would probably be
possible, but it would be very brittle. By using separate images where it is
necessary we keep various orthogonal modifications independent.
The way that images are cached is complicated by the fact that we still
want to keep them in /var/tmp. Thus, an image is created on first use and
linked to from build/test/ so it can be found by other tests.
Tests cannot be run in parallel. I think that is an acceptable limitation.
Creation of the images was probably taking more resources then the actual
tests, so we should be better off anyway.
We had an fstab for the sole purpose of remounting "/" rw. Mounting root ro
is a pointless excercise in obsolete approaches. More importantly, the nspawn
image is now the same as the qemu one.
The two timezone files are now installed in the global setup. I am not too
happy about this, but it still seems better than to create a completely
separate image just for this.
I picked the list of zone files to install by grepping through the code. This
is is a bit brittle, but installing all of them takes a while, and more
importantly, writes a lot of lines to the log.
Sometimes the test would fail there, nondeterministically. I'm not sure why,
but relying on PID1 not caching the file is clearly very brittle. Let's instead
call daemon-reload.
Unfortunately meson does not install symlinks, but copies the symlink
destination instead. So symlinks need to be created by a script.
This commit adds both symlinks in test/testsuite-08.units/ and meson
scriptlet calls. Strictly speaking, the first is not necessary, since nothing
reads stuff directly from the source tree.
I put SELINUX=disabled on my laptop, and the test fails with ENOENT when trying
to write to /sys/fs/selinux/enforce. It's a bit of a special case, but let's
avoid the failure.
The test currently fails in the check for LimitNOFILESoft/LimitNOFILE. I see
default values there. This doesn't seem to be related to the changes in the
test suite, but rather to the recent changes to pid1.
During installation, meson complains:
> Installing /home/zbyszek/src/systemd-work/test/units/sysinit.target to /var/tmp/systemd-test.Q1FSuj/root/usr/lib/systemd/tests/testdata/units

It *is* convenient to have those files as symlinks, but it is also confusing,
because symlinks create aliases, and it seems that in those cases we actually
don't want aliases (at least in the case of loopy*.service that'd make the test
pointless).
When specifying `DHCPv4.SendOption=`, it is used by systemd-networkd to
set the value of that option within the DHCP request that is sent out.
This differs to setting `DHCPServer.SendOption=`, which will place all
the options together as suboptions into the vendor-specific information
(code 43) option.
This commit adds two new config options, `DHCPv4.SendVendorOption=` and
`DHCPServer.SendVendorOption=`. These both have the behaviour of the old
`DHCPServer.SendOption=` flag, and set the value of the suboption in the
vendor-specific information option.
The behaviour of `DHCPServer.SendOption=` is then changed to reflect
that of `DHCPv4.SendOption=`. It will set the value of the corresponding
option in the DHCP request.
Proportional Integral controller-Enhanced (PIE) is a control
theoretic active queue management scheme. It is based on the
proportional integral controller but aims to control delay.
