* virt: make virtualization enum a named typeLennart Poettering2022-04-041-4/+5
| | | | | | | | These days we have a mechanism for safely returning errnos in enum types, via definining -ERRNO_MAX as one special enu value. Let's use that for Virtualization. No change in behaviour, just some typesafety improvement.

* tests: rework test macros to not take code as parametersLennart Poettering2022-02-021-22/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | C macros are nasty. We use them, but we try to be conservative with them. In particular passing literal, complex code blocks as argument is icky, because of "," handling of C, and also because it's quite a challange for most code highlighters and similar. Hence, let's avoid that. Using macros for genreating functions is OK but if so, the parameters should be simple words, not full code blocks. hence, rework DEFINE_CUSTOM_TEST_MAIN() to take a function name instead of code block as argument. As side-effect this also fixes a bunch of cases where we might end up returning a negative value from main(). Some uses of DEFINE_CUSTOM_TEST_MAIN() inserted local variables into the main() functions, these are replaced by static variables, and their destructors by the static destructor logic. This doesn't fix any bugs or so, it's just supposed to make the code easier to work with and improve it easthetically. Or in other words: let's use macros where it really makes sense, but let's not go overboard with it. (And yes, FOREACH_DIRENT() is another one of those macros that take code, and I dislike that too and regret I ever added that.)

* headers: remove unneeded includes from util.hZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2019-03-271-0/+1
| | | | | This means we need to include many more headers in various files that simply included util.h before, but it seems cleaner to do it this way.

* tree-wide: beautify remaining copyright statementsLennart Poettering2018-06-141-1/+1
| | | | | | Let's unify an beautify our remaining copyright statements, with a unicode ©. This means our copyright statements are now always formatted the same way. Yay.
* 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.

* test: disable test-barrier by defaultDavid Herrmann2015-06-181-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The test-barrier binary uses real-time alarms and timeouts to test for races in the thread-barrier implementation. Hence, if your system is under high load and your scheduler decides to not run test-barrier for >BASE_TIME, then the tests are likely to fail. Two options: 1) Increase BASE_TIME. This will make the test take significantly longer for no real good. Furthermore, it is still not guaranteed that the task is scheduled. 2) Don't rely on real-time timers, but use explicit synchronization. This would basically test one barrier implementation with another.. kinda ironic.. but maybe something worth looking into. 3) Disable test-barrier by default. This patch chooses option 3) and makes sure test-barrier only runs if you pass any argument. Side note: test-barrier is written in a way that if it fails under load, but does not on idle systems, then it is very _unlikely_ that the barrier implementation is the culprit. Hence, it makes little sense to run it under load, anyway. It will not improve the test coverage of barrier.c, but rather the coverage of the test itself.
* remove unused includesThomas Hindoe Paaboel Andersen2015-02-231-3/+0
| | | | | | This patch removes includes that are not used. The removals were found with include-what-you-use which checks if any of the symbols from a header is in use.
* test-barrier: add checks after the barrier constructorThomas Hindoe Paaboel Andersen2014-10-031-0/+4
| | | | | | | | Coverity seems to think that we can later end up with the "them" fd having a negative value. Even after a succesful barrier_create. Add some test to verify that the constructor went well. If coverity still complains then it must mean that it thinks the the value is overwritten later.
* barrier: fix race in test-codeDavid Herrmann2014-07-291-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The barrier_wait_next_twice* test-cases run: Parent: Child: set_alarm(10) sleep_for(1); ... set_alarm(1); sleep_for(2) ... Therefore, the parent exits after 2+ periods, the client's alarm fires after 2+ periods. This race turns out to be lost by the child on other machines, so avoid it by increasing the parent's sleep-interval to 4. This way, the client has 2 periods to run the barrier test, which is far more than enough.
* barrier: convert msecs to usecs in test-codeDavid Herrmann2014-07-291-47/+48
| | | | | | Avoid using msecs in favor of usec_t. This is more consistent with the other parts of systemd and avoids the confusion between msec and usec. We always use usecs, end of story.
* barrier: initalize file descriptors with -1Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2014-07-191-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | Explicitly initalize descriptors using explicit assignment like bus_error. This makes barriers follow the same conventions as everything else and makes things a bit simpler too. Rename barier_init to barier_create so it is obvious that it is not about initialization. Remove some parens, etc.
* shared: add generic IPC barrierDavid Herrmann2014-07-171-0/+460
The "Barrier" object is a simple inter-process barrier implementation. It allows placing synchronization points and waiting for the other side to reach it. Additionally, it has an abortion-mechanism as second-layer synchronization to send abortion-events asynchronously to the other side. The API is usually used to synchronize processes during fork(). However, it can be extended to pass state through execve() so you could synchronize beyond execve(). Usually, it's used like this (error-handling replaced by assert() for simplicity): Barrier b; r = barrier_init(&b); assert_se(r >= 0); pid = fork(); assert_se(pid >= 0); if (pid == 0) { barrier_set_role(&b, BARRIER_CHILD); ...do child post-setup... if (CHILD_SETUP_FAILED) exit(1); ...child setup done... barrier_place(&b); if (!barrier_sync(&b)) { /* parent setup failed */ exit(1); } barrier_destroy(&b); /* redundant as execve() and exit() imply this */ /* parent & child setup successful */ execve(...); } barrier_set_role(&b, BARRIER_PARENT); ...do parent post-setup... if (PARENT_SETUP_FAILED) { barrier_abort(&b); /* send abortion event */ barrier_wait_abortion(&b); /* wait for child to abort (exit() implies abortion) */ barrier_destroy(&b); ...bail out... } ...parent setup done... barrier_place(&b); if (!barrier_sync(&b)) { ...child setup failed... ; barrier_destroy(&b); ...bail out... } barrier_destroy(&b); ...child setup successfull... This is the most basic API. Using barrier_place() to place barriers and barrier_sync() to perform a full synchronization between both processes. barrier_abort() places an abortion barrier which superceeds any other barriers, exit() (or barrier_destroy()) places an abortion-barrier that queues behind existing barriers (thus *not* replacing existing barriers unlike barrier_abort()). This example uses hard-synchronization with wait_abortion(), sync() and friends. These are all optional. Barriers are highly dynamic and can be used for one-way synchronization or even no synchronization at all (postponing it for later). The sync() call performs a full two-way synchronization. The API is documented and should be fairly self-explanatory. A test-suite shows some special semantics regarding abortion, wait_next() and exit(). Internally, barriers use two eventfds and a pipe. The pipe is used to detect exit()s of the remote side as eventfds do not allow that. The eventfds are used to place barriers, one for each side. Barriers itself are numbered, but the numbers are reused once both sides reached the same barrier, thus you cannot address barriers by the index. Moreover, the numbering is implicit and we only store a counter. This makes the implementation itself very lightweight, which is probably negligible considering that we need 3 FDs for a barrier.. Last but not least: This barrier implementation is quite heavy. It's definitely not meant for fast IPC synchronization. However, it's very easy to use. And given the *HUGE* overhead of fork(), the barrier-overhead should be negligible.
