This adds a helper script:

The output can be pasted into the markdown file. I think this works better than
trying to match the two lists by hand.
When user and network namespaces are enabled, the kernel
makes the global keys read-only, and makes the namespaced
ones available for the guest already.
The discovery partitions spec so far suggested we should define
arch-specific partition type uuids only for archs that have EFI. Let's
change that and invite people to define them for any arch. Why? Even if
GPT is defined as part of the UEFI spec it's quite useful independently
of it, too. Specifically, our image dissection logic makes use of it,
i.e. systemd-nspawn, systemd-gpt-auto-generator, systemd-repart,
RootImage=, portable services, and so on. None of these tools are
related to UEFI in any way.
Hence, let's open this up.
When using "capture : true" in custom_target()s the mode of the source
file is not preserved when the generated file is not installed and so
needs to be tweaked manually. Switch from output capture to creating the
target file and copy the permissions from the input file.

This introduces `ExitType=main|cgroup` for services.
Similar to how `Type` specifies the launch of a service, `ExitType` is
concerned with how systemd determines that a service exited.
- If set to `main` (the current behavior), the service manager will consider
the unit stopped when the main process exits.
- The `cgroup` exit type is meant for applications whose forking model is not
known ahead of time and which might not have a specific main process.
The service will stay running as long as at least one process in the cgroup
is running. This is intended for transient or automatically generated
services, such as graphical applications inside of a desktop environment.
Motivation for this is #16805. The original PR (#18782) was reverted (#20073)
after realizing that the exit status of "the last process in the cgroup" can't
reliably be known (#19385)
This version instead uses the main process exit status if there is one and just
listens to the cgroup empty event otherwise.
The advantages of a service with `ExitType=cgroup` over scopes are:
- Integrated logging / stdout redirection
- Avoids the race / synchronisation issue between launch and scope creation
- More extensive use of drop-ins and thus distro-level configuration:
by moving from scopes to services we can have drop ins that will affect
properties that can only be set during service creation,
like `OOMPolicy` and security-related properties
- It makes systemd-xdg-autostart-generator usable by fixing [1], as obviously
only services can be used in the generator, not scopes.

… but only for a single variable.
The guidelines already allowed declaring variables at the point of
initialization. But not making a function call to do that. Let's allow that
now. The existing style of declaring and initializing seperate is still
allowed, and whatever makes most sense should be used.
This is useful since certain shares can only be mounted with additional
mount flags. For example the SMB share in modern AVM Fritz!Boxes
requires "noserverino" to be set to work from Linux.
Allow specifying CIFS services in the format //host/service/subdir/… to
allow multiple homedirs on the same share, and not in the main dir of
the share.
All other backends allow placing the data store at arbitrary places,
let's allow this too for the CIFS backend. This is particularly useful
for testing.
mkosi automatically builds for the host distro which seems a much
better default to encourage since dnf won't be installed on any host
system that's not Fedora anyway.
This is supposed to be used by package/image builders such as mkosi to
speed up building, since it allows us to suppress sync() inside a
container.
This does what Debian's eatmydata tool does, but for a container, and
via seccomp (instead of LD_PRELOAD).
Those were added in b41a3f66c9 without
an explicit license, so they are under the default license. Some files
already got a header previously, so this only touches the remaining.
The same should be done for docs/_data/extra_pages.json, but it's json, and
json doesn't allow comments.
This adds support for dm integrity targets and an associated
/etc/integritytab file which is required as the dm integrity device
super block doesn't include all of the required metadata to bring up
the device correctly. See integritytab man page for details.
