If we fail to start polkit, we get a message like
"org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NameHasNoOwner: Could not activate remote peer.",
which has no meaning for the caller of our StartUnit method. Let's just
return -EACCES.
$ systemctl start apache
Failed to start apache.service: Could not activate remote peer. (before)
Failed to start apache.service: Access denied (after)
Fixes#13865.
We currently use the host's kernel and initramfs in our QEMU tests.
If the host is running on an encrypted LUKS partition, then the initramfs
will have a crypttab setup looking for the particular root disk it needs to
encrypt before booting into the system.
However, this disk obviously doesn't exist in our QEMU VM, so it turns out
our tests end up waiting for this device to become available, which will
never actually happen, and boot hangs for 90s until that service times out.
[*** ] A start job is running for /dev/disk/by-uuid/01234567-abcd-1234-abcd-0123456789ab (20s / 1min 30s)
In order to prevent this issue, let's pass "rd.luks=0" to disable LUKS in
the initramfs only as part of our default kernel command-line in our QEMU
tests.
This is enough to disable this behavior and prevent the timeout, while at
the same time doesn't conflict with our tests that actually check for LUKS
behavior in the systemd running under test (such as TEST-02-CRYPTSETUP).
Tested: `sudo make -C TEST-02-CRYPTSETUP/ clean setup run`
DNSOverTLS in strict mode (value yes) does check the server, as it is said in
the first few lines of the option documentation. The check is not performed in
"opportunistic" mode, however, as that is allowed by RFC 7858, section "4.1.
Opportunistic Privacy Profile".

This partially reverts db11487d10 (the logic to
calculate the correct value is removed, we always use the same setting as for
the system manager). Distributions have an easy mechanism to override this if
they wish.
I think making this configurable is better, because different distros clearly
want different defaults here, and making this configurable is nice and clean.
If we don't make it configurable, distros which either have to carry patches,
or what would be worse, rely on some other configuration mechanism, like
/etc/profile. Those other solutions do not apply everywhere (they usually
require the shell to be used at some point), so it is better if we provide
a nice way to override the default.
Fixes #13469.
systemd-analyze verify command now results in segmentation fault if two
consecutive non-existent unit file names are given:
# ./build/systemd-analyze a.service b.service
...<snip irrelevant part>...
Unit a.service not found.
Unit b.service not found.
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
The cause of this is a wrong handling of return value of
manager_load_startable_unit_or_warn() in verify_units() in failure case.
It looks that the current logic wants to assign the first error status
throughout verify_units() into variable r and count up variable count only when
a given unit file exists.
However, due to the wrong handling of the return value of
manager_load_startable_unit_or_warn() in verify_units(), the variable count is
unexpectedly incremented even when there is no such unit file because the
variable r already contains non-zero value in the 2nd failure, set by the 1st
failure, and then the condition k < 0 && r == 0 evaluates to false.
This commit fixes the wrong handling of return value of
manager_load_startable_unit_or_warn() in verify_units().
I added a fairly vague entry to docs/ENVIRONMENT because I think it is worth
mentioning there (in case someone is looking for any environment variable that
might be relevant).
