Let's not leak details from src/shared and src/libsystemd into
src/basic, even though you can't actually do anything useful with
just forward declarations from src/shared.
The sd-forward.h header is put in src/libsystemd/sd-common as we
don't have a directory for shared internal headers for libsystemd
yet.
Let's also rename forward.h to basic-forward.h to keep things
self-explanatory.
So far, when outputing information about copy progress we'd suppress the
digit after the dot if it is zero. That makes the progress bar a bit
"jumpy", because sometimes there are two more character cells used than
other times. Let's just always output one digit after the dot here
hence, to avoid this.
This pulls this generally useful helper out of sysusers and into the
util lib, and updates the places throughout the codebase where it makes
sense to use it.
Also,
- drop unnecessary +1 from buffer size, as IF_NAMESIZE or IFNAMSIZ
includes the nul at the end.
- format_ifname() does not update buffer on failure,
- introduces format_ifname_alloc(), FORMAT_IFNAME(), and their friends.
By making them unsigned comparing them with other sizes is less likely
to trigger compiler warnings regarding signed/unsigned comparisons.
After all sizes (i.e. size_t) are generally assumed to be unsigned, so
these should be too.

Inside format_bytes, we return NULL if the value is UINT64_MAX. This
makes some kind of sense where this has some other semantic meaning than
being a value, but in this case the value is both a.) not the default
(so we definitely want to display it), and b.) means "infinity" (or
"max" in cgroup terminology).
This patch adds a small wrapper around format_bytes that can be used for
these cases, to avoid the following situation:
[root@tangsanjiao ~]# cat /sys/fs/cgroup/workload.slice/memory.low
max
[root@tangsanjiao ~]# systemctl show workload.slice -p MemoryLow
MemoryLow=infinity
[root@tangsanjiao ~]# systemctl status workload.slice | grep low:
Memory: 14.9G (low: (null))
After the patch:
[root@tangsanjiao ~]# systemctl status workload.slice | grep low:
Memory: 15.1G (low: infinity)
This part of the copyright blurb stems from the GPL use recommendations:
https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.en.html
The concept appears to originate in times where version control was per
file, instead of per tree, and was a way to glue the files together.
Ultimately, we nowadays don't live in that world anymore, and this
information is entirely useless anyway, as people are very welcome to
copy these files into any projects they like, and they shouldn't have to
change bits that are part of our copyright header for that.
hence, let's just get rid of this old cruft, and shorten our codebase a
bit.
Files which are installed as-is (any .service and other unit files, .conf
files, .policy files, etc), are left as is. My assumption is that SPDX
identifiers are not yet that well known, so it's better to retain the
extended header to avoid any doubt.
I also kept any copyright lines. We can probably remove them, but it'd nice to
obtain explicit acks from all involved authors before doing that.
timex::time::tv_usec and timex::freq can have different sizes
depending on the host architecture. On x32 in particular,
it is 8 bytes long while the long int type is only 4 bytes
long. Hence, using li as a format specifier will trigger
a format error. Thus, introduce a new format specifier
PRI_TIMEX which is defined as PRIi64 on x32 and li
everywhere else.
We don't have plural in the name of any other -util files and this
inconsistency trips me up every time I try to type this file name
from memory. "formats-util" is even hard to pronounce.
