The option cursor-file takes a filename as argument. If the file exists and
contains a valid cursor, this is used to start the output after this position.
At the end, the last cursor gets written to the file.
This allows for an easy implementation of a timer that regularly looks in the
journal for some messages.
journalctl --cursor-file err-cursor -b -p err
journalctl --cursor-file audit-cursor -t audit --grep DENIED
Or you might want to walk the journal in steps of 10 messages:
journalctl --cursor-file ./curs -n10 --since=today -t systemd
adds a fully safe way how apps can pin files into /tmp temporarily, excepting them from the tmpfiles aging algorithm, based on BSD file locks on dirs we descend into
Let services use a private UTS namespace. In addition, a seccomp filter is
installed on set{host,domain}name and a ro bind mounts on
/proc/sys/kernel/{host,domain}name.
This adds /usr/local/lib/udev/rules.d to the search path on non-split-usr systems.
On split-usr systems, the paths with /usr/-prefixes are added too.
In the past, on split-usr systems, it made sense to only load rules from
/lib/udev/rules.d, because /usr could be mounted late. But we don't support running
without /usr since 80758717a6, so in practice it doesn't matter whether the
rules files are in /lib/udev/rules.d or /usr/lib/udev/rules.d. Distributions
that maintain the illusion of functional split-usr are welcome to simply not put any
files in /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/.
In practice this doesn't change much, but it makes udev more consistent with the
rest of the systemd suite.
/usr/local/lib/systemd/dnssd is now also included in the search path. This
path is of limited usefulness, but it makes sense to be consistent.
Documentation is updated to match. Outdated advice against drop-ins in /usr
is removed.
standard-conf.xml is currently included by:
man/binfmt.d.xml
man/environment.d.xml
man/modules-load.d.xml
man/sysctl.d.xml
man/coredump.conf.xml
man/journal-remote.conf.xml
man/journal-upload.conf.xml
man/journald.conf.xml
man/logind.conf.xml
man/networkd.conf.xml
man/resolved.conf.xml
man/systemd-sleep.conf.xml
man/systemd-system.conf.xml
All those programs actually use CONF_PATHS_NULSTR or CONF_PATHS_STRV,
so this changes the documentation to match code.
Linux can be run on a device meant to act as a USB peripheral. In order
for a machine to act as such a USB device it has to be equipped with
a UDC - USB Device Controller.
This patch adds a target reached when UDC becomes available. It can be used
for activating e.g. a service unit which composes a USB gadget with
configfs and activates it.
This new setting allows configuration of CFS period on the CPU cgroup, instead
of using a hardcoded default of 100ms.
Tested:
- Legacy cgroup + Unified cgroup
- systemctl set-property
- systemctl show
- Confirmed that the cgroup settings (such as cpu.cfs_period_ns) were set
appropriately, including updating the CPU quota (cpu.cfs_quota_ns) when
CPUQuotaPeriodSec= is updated.
- Checked that clamping works properly when either period or (quota * period)
are below the resolution of 1ms, or if period is above the max of 1s.
We should probably refer to them from other man pages
for programs which use them, since right now all refs are
in systemd-boot(7). But creating the section is a good step
anyway.
They is quite a bit of those directives and they were in "MISCELLANEOUS" because
they don't quite fit anywhere. When the OCI-compat stuff is merged, there'll
be even more, so let's make a separate section for them.
We had "SYSTEM MANAGER DIRECTIVES" which was a misnomer already, because
it also listed user manager stuff. Let's make this a more general section
and move the items for other services there too (from "MISCELANENOUS").
Strictly speaking, those are not environment variables, but they are compatible
and people think about them like this. Moving them makes them easier to find.
