If the EDITOR environment variable is not set, the Debian policy
recommends to use the /usr/bin/editor program as default editor.
This file is managed via the dpkg alternatives mechanism and typically
used in Debian/Ubuntu and derivatives to configure the default editor.
See section 11.4 of the Debian policy [1].
Therefor prefer /usr/bin/editor over specific editors if available.

Fix a regression caused by 4034a06d ("util: rework word parsing and c
unescaping code") which broke octal escape sequences.
The reason for this breakage is that cunescape_one() expects 4 characters
in an octal encoding, which is a stray left-over from the old code which
operated on different variables to make the length check.
While at it, add a test case to prevent the same thing from happening
again.
Now that listen_fds() have been split out, we can safely move the allocation
of the manager object after doing the forking (the fork is done to notify legcay
init-systems that the fds are ready).
Subsequently, we can merge manager_listen() back into managre_new().
This entails a minor behaviour change: the application of permissions to
static device nodes now happens after the fork (but still before notifying
systemd about being ready).
This will simply silently fail on non-systemd systems, so there is no reason
to make it conditional.
Also make it clear that we notify systemd about being ready as the last step
before starting the event loop, whereas the forking might need to happen
earlier.
This allows a fd to be created and configured as part of one monitor, to be passed in
to create a second monitor without having to redo any of the configuration.
This should have no behavioural change, but it is odd to tie the cgroup cleaning to
whether or not we are passed sockets.
The point really is if we are guaranteed to be in a dedicated cgroup, so instead
check for our parent being PID1 (we already implicitly only do this on systemd
systems).
We used to block all signals, and restore the original signal mask before exec'ing
external processes.
Now we just block the signals we care about and unconditionally unblock all signals
before exec'ing.
In 5a8bcb674f, IPForwarding was introduced
to set forwarding flags on interfaces in .network files. networkd sets
forwarding options regardless of the previous setting, even if it was
set by e.g. sysctl. This commit creates a new option for IPForwarding,
"kernel", that preserves the sysctl settings rather than always setting
them.
See https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=89509 for the initial
bug report.
A lot of touch screens use INPUT_PROP_DIRECT to indicate that touch input
maps directly to the underlying screen, while the BTN_TOUCH bit might not be
set.
This change switches to bools and separates bit flag evaluation from
decision making and application of udev properties, while hopefully
keeping the same semantics. Apart from using BTN_LEFT instead of BTN_MOUSE
for mouse detection.
This is needed for generic DRM devices like the VirtualBox vboxvideo
driver, which exposes itself as a generic, ID-less DRM device at

Without this patch, the capabilities for a seat on a VirtualBox
installation of systemd v219 incorrectly show it as non-graphical, even
though I can type these commands from an xterm:
$ loginctl show-seat seat0
Id=seat0
CanMultiSession=yes
CanTTY=yes
CanGraphical=no

When (for example) switching from X11 to a new VT and logging in there,
creating a new session, the user state file (/run/systemd/users/$uid) is
not updated after the session becomes active. The latest time it is
saved is when the session is in SESSION_OPENING.
This results in a /run/systemd/users/$uid file which contains
STATE=online for the current user on the current active VT, which is
obviously wrong.
As functions like sd_uid_get_state() use this file to get the user’s
state, this could result in things like PolicyKit making incorrect
decisions about the user’s state. (See
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=76358.)
Fix this by re-saving the state for a session’s user after completing
the state_job for that session.

The cunescape() helper function used to handle unknown escaping sequences
gracefully by copying them over verbatim.
Commit 527b7a42 ("util: rework cunescape(), improve error handling") added
a flag to make that behavior optional, and changed to default to error out
with -EINVAL otherwise.
However, config_parse_exec(), which is used to parse the
Exec{Start,Stop}{Post,Pre,} directives of unit files, was not changed along
with that commit, which means that directives with improperly escaped
command line strings are no longer parsed.
Relevant bugreports include:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=90794https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=787256
Fix this by passing UNESCAPE_RELAX to config_parse_exec() in order to
restore the original behavior.
In device_update_properties_bufs(), the strv is built from pointers into the
single nul-terminated buf_nulstr string, to avoid allocating the key=value
strings twice. However, we must not do that while building and
GREEDY_REALLOC0()'ing buf_nulstr, as each time when this actually reallocates
memory the pointers we wrote into buf_strv so far become invalid.
So change the logic to first completely build the new buf_nulstr, and then
iterate over it to pick out the pointers to the individual key=value strings
for properties_strv.
This fixes invalid environment for udev callouts.
The communication channels must all be opened before forknig in daemon mode,
or we cannot guarantee that udevadm will work correctly as soon as udevd is
started.
