In nss-systemd we synthesize user entries for "nobody" and "root", as
fallback if we boot up with an entirely empty /etc. This is supposed to
be a fallback only though, and it's intended that both users exists
regularly in /etc/passwd + /etc/group. Before this patch
systemd-sysusers would never create the entries however as it notices
the synthetic entries. Let's add a way how systemd-sysusers can tell
nss-systemd not to synthesize the entries for itself.
Fixes: #6808
"Currently, the following values are defined: xxx: in case <condition>" is
awkward because "xxx" is always defined unconditionally. It is _used_ in case
<condition> is true. Correct this and a bunch of other places where the
sentence structure makes it unclear what is the subject of the sentence.
As it turns out the authentication phase times out too often than is
good, mostly due to PRNG pools not being populated during boot. Hence,
let's increase the authentication timeout from 25s to 90s, to cover for
that.
(Note that we leave the D-Bus method call timeout at 25s, matching the
reference implementation's value. And if the auth phase managed to
complete then the pools should be populated enough and mehtod calls
shouldn't take needlessly long anymore).
Fixes: #6418
We make copies (without O_CLOEXEC) of the fds anyway before using them,
hence let's be safe and create them with O_CLOEXEC first, so that we
don't run into issues should pager_open() be called in a threaded
environment where another thread fork()s at the wrong time and ends up
with fds not marked O_CLOEXEC.
Most importantly, don't collect open socket activation fds when in
--test mode. This specifically created a problem because we invoke
pager_open() beforehand (which these days makes copies of the original
stdout/stderr in order to be able to restore them when the pager goes
away) and we might mistakenly the fd copies it creates as socket
activation fds.
