This patch set is largely Jonas Bonn's to move towards a "stateless" configuration:
These patches make some modifications to systemd with the long-term goal of being able to run OE in systemd's "stateless" configuration. "Stateless" boils down to building an image with empty /etc and /var directories so that volatile (tmpfs) filesystems can be mounted there; this requires that the system subsequently be able to populate these directories dynamically, which systemd mostly takes care of if things are done right. In these patches: i) Don't include machine-id in writable images so that systemd can run its first-boot machinery ii) Move systemd configuration files out of /etc iii) Allow systemd to dynamically enable services and populate /etc/systemd/system via the presets mechanism There's a long way to go to get to a working "stateless" configuration. Getting to a "volatile" system (just empty /var) should be easier and I'll post patches moving things in that direction shortly. However as a result of the systemd 242 upgrade, which includes 01d2041e41f4 ("meson: stop creating enablement symlinks in /etc during installation"), services such as systemd-networkd are no longer enabled in images. This patch set fixes this problem in addition to satisfying the goal of moving towards "stateless" configurations. The issue with respect to image testing during CI was caused by systemd-time-wait-sync.service being enabled due to the lack of a default preset policy: https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/Preset/#howto Changes in v6: - switch configuration to simple overrides in /usr/lib/systemd/*.conf.d - make systemd RRECOMMENDS rather than RDEPENDS on systemd-conf - don't exit in postinst as when that executes we're actually a concatenation of all fragments - validate SYSTEMD_AUTO_ENABLE is `enable` or `disable` - rewrite systemctl-native in Python - moved systemctl preset-all to IMAGE_PREPROCESS so it runs after ROOTFS, run for all images, not just read-only Changes in v5: - rebased for systemd 242 - install default preset distribution policy of "enable nothing" Alex Kiernan (3): systemd-conf: simplify creation of machine-specific configuration systemctl-native: Rewrite in Python supporting preset-all and mask image: call systemctl preset-all for images Jonas Bonn (3): systemd: don't build firstboot by default systemd: do not create machine-id systemd: create preset files instead of installing in image meta/classes/image.bbclass | 9 +- meta/classes/rootfs-postcommands.bbclass | 6 + meta/classes/systemd.bbclass | 41 +- .../systemd/systemd-conf/journald.conf | 3 + .../systemd/systemd-conf/logind.conf | 2 + .../systemd/systemd-conf/system.conf | 2 + .../systemd/systemd-conf/system.conf-qemuall | 3 + meta/recipes-core/systemd/systemd-conf_242.bb | 61 +-- .../systemd/systemd-systemctl/systemctl | 476 ++++++++++-------- .../systemd/systemd/99-default.preset | 1 + meta/recipes-core/systemd/systemd_242.bb | 26 +- 11 files changed, 360 insertions(+), 270 deletions(-) create mode 100644 meta/recipes-core/systemd/systemd-conf/journald.conf create mode 100644 meta/recipes-core/systemd/systemd-conf/logind.conf create mode 100644 meta/recipes-core/systemd/systemd-conf/system.conf create mode 100644 meta/recipes-core/systemd/systemd-conf/system.conf-qemuall create mode 100644 meta/recipes-core/systemd/systemd/99-default.preset -- 2.17.1 -- _______________________________________________ Openembedded-core mailing list Openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org http://lists.openembedded.org/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-core
