* generate systemd: warn on --restart without --newValentin Rothberg2022-09-13
| | | | | | | | | | | Emit a warning to the user when generating a unit with --new on a container that was created with a custom --restart policy. As shown in #15284, a custom --restart policy in that case can lead to issues on system shutdown where systemd attempts to nuke the unit but Podman keeps on restarting the container.

* man page checker: enforce stricter options formatEd Santiago2022-07-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Followup to #14906, in which a nonexistent option was found in a man page. The xref script was designed to catch that, but I was too lax in my parsing: the option was documented using wrong syntax, and the script didn't catch it. Solution: do not allow *any* unrecognized cruft in the option description lines. And fix all improperly-written entries to conform to the rule: **--option**=*value(s)* Two asterisks around option, which must have two dashes. One asterisk around value(s). This is going to cause headaches for some people adding new options, but I don't think I can fix that: there are many factors that make an unparseable line. Adding 'hint' code would make the script even more complex than it is. I have to assume that our contributors are smart enough to look at surrounding context and figure out the right way to specify options. Signed-off-by: Ed Santiago <santiago@redhat.com>
* Add "podman kube play" cmdNiall Crowe2022-07-13
| | | | | | | | | | | The "podman kube play" command is designed to be a replacement for the "podman play kube" command. It performs the same function as "play kube" while also still working with the same flags and options. The "podman play kube" command is still functional as an alias of "kube play".

* man pages: sort flags, and keep them that wayEd Santiago2022-03-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Command flags (OPTIONS) in man pages have to date been in haphazard order. Sometimes that order is sensible, e.g., most-important options first, but more often they're just in arbitrary places. This makes life hard for users. Here, I update the man-page-check Makefile script so it checks and enforces alphabetical order in OPTIONS sections. Then -- the hard part -- update all existing man pages to conform to this requirement. Signed-off-by: Ed Santiago <santiago@redhat.com>
* docs: generate-systemd: pod requires an infra containerValentin Rothberg2022-02-24
| | | | | | | | | | | Generating unit files for a pod requires the pod to be created with an infra container (see `--infra=true`). An infra container runs across the entire lifespan of a pod and is hence required for systemd to manage the life cycle of the pod's main unit. This issue came up on the mailing list.

* | [CI:DOCS] Add CI check for SEE ALSO in man pagesEd Santiago2021-11-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add new CI check to confirm that links and references in SEE ALSO sections are properly formatted and that links are valid (at least in theory: we do no actual URL fetching to test for 404). The check is piggybacked into existing xref-helpmsgs-manpages script. It could conceivably be more elegant to write a separate tool for this purpose, but I don't wish to duplicate the logic for finding and reading markdown files. Script identified various problems, which I fix in this PR: . missing '**' (asterisks) around some references, or '**' in the wrong place. . links pointing to github.com/.../tree/ instead of /blob/ (github redirects those automatically, but I like consistency) . a few copy-paste errors, e.g. subgid linking to subuid.

* generate systemd: clarify limitations of `--new`Valentin Rothberg2021-09-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | `generate systemd --new` is looking at the "create command" of the container/pod which is simply the os.Args at creation time. It does not work on containers or pods created via the REST API since the create command is not set. `--new` does work on such containers and pods since there is no reliable way to reverse-map their configs to command-line arguments of podman.

* generate systemd: make mounts portableValentin Rothberg2021-05-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 748826fc88fc fixed a bug where slow mounting of the runroot was causing issues when the units are started at boot. The fix was to add the container's runroot to the required mounts; the graph root has been added as well. Hard-coding the run- and graphroot to the required mounts, however, breaks the portability of units generated with --now. Those units are intended to be running on any machine as, theoreticaly, any user. Make the mounts portable by using the `%t` macro for the run root. Since the graphroot's location varies across root and ordinary users, drop it from the list of required mounts. The graphroot was not causing issues.

* Add RequiresMountsFor= to systemd generateRobb Manes2021-03-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is rare but possible that storage locations for the graphroot and the runroot are not mounted at boot time, and therefore might race when doing container operations. An example we've seen in the wild is that a slow tmpfs mount for the runroot would suddenly mount over /run, causing the container to lose all currently-running data, requiring a system refresh to get it back. This patch adds RequiresMountsFor= to the systemd.unit header to ensure the paths for both the graphroot and runroot are mounted prior to starting any generated unit files.

* | generate systemd: add `default.target` to INSTALLValentin Rothberg2020-03-09
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When enabling a systemd service we can specify which target will start it by specifying it in the `[INSTALL]` section. In case of root, this is commonly set to `multi-user.target` which is used to start other essential system services such as the network manager, D-BUS and more. However, the `multi-user.target` is not enough on all systems, especially when running rootless and enabling user services. Multiple users have reported issues that there isn't even an attempt to start the service. Setting the INSTALL target to `default.target` will fix the rootless case. However, `default.target` may vary among systems. Fedora Workstation, for instance, sets the `default.target` to the graphical target (i.e., runlevel 5) while Fedora Server sets it to `multi-user.target` which is on runlevel 2 and hence way earlier in the startup sequence. As INSTALL allows for specifying multiple INSTALL targets, we can set it to `multi-user.target` to continue supporting existing workloads AND to `default.target` which MAY redundantly attempt to start it at a later point; effectively a NOP for the root case and essential for rootless.
