Add support for managing and configuring watchdog pretimeout values if
the watchdog hardware supports it. The ping interval is adjusted to
account for a pretimeout so that it will still ping at half the timeout
interval before a pretimeout event would be triggered. By default the
pretimeout defaults to 0s or disabled.
The RuntimeWatchdogPreSec config option is added to allow the pretimeout
to be specified (similar to RuntimeWatchdogSec). The
RuntimeWatchdogPreUSec dbus property is added to override the pretimeout
value at runtime (similar to RuntimeWatchdogUSec). Setting the
pretimeout to 0s will disable the pretimeout.
This adds the support for veritytab.
The veritytab file contains at most five fields, the first four are
mandatory, the last one is optional:
- The first field contains the name of the resulting verity volume; its
block device is set up /dev/mapper/</filename>.
- The second field contains a path to the underlying block data device,
or a specification of a block device via UUID= followed by the UUID.
- The third field contains a path to the underlying block hash device,
or a specification of a block device via UUID= followed by the UUID.
- The fourth field is the roothash in hexadecimal.
- The fifth field, if present, is a comma-delimited list of options.
The following options are recognized only: ignore-corruption,
restart-on-corruption, panic-on-corruption, ignore-zero-blocks,
check-at-most-once and root-hash-signature. The others options will
be implemented later.
Also, this adds support for the new kernel verity command line boolean
option "veritytab" which enables the read for veritytab, and the new
environment variable SYSTEMD_VERITYTAB which sets the path to the file
veritytab to read.
This adds support for a new kernel root verity command line option
"verity_root_options=" which controls the behaviour of dm-verity by
forwarding options directly to systemd-veritysetup.
See `veritysetup(8)` for more details.
Much like systemd.condition-needs-update= this new switch allows
overriding of a unit file condition, but this time its
ConditionFirstBoot=.
Usecase is also primarily debugging, but could be useful for other
schemes too.
