This extends the vocabulary of session classes in logind, with various different properties.

This is split out of #30226, and covers basically all logind changes that are unrelated to the homed changes.

Now that almost every user would have an associating manager session, we should add CLASS to list-sessions calls to make distinguishing normal sessions easier.

yes, I fully agree. i think the choice of fields "list-sessions" outputs right now misses all the interesting fields. To make this efficient we should add a ListSessionsEx() bus call or so that substantially updates the list of fields included. But I think that's stuff for another PR

(BTW, are we allowed to change the order/remove fields from list-* output?)

that's murky territory. We have changed that in the past. And I think we should do this. Probably not remove, but add should be fine.

We should support --json=/-j mode everywhere though, and for that one stronger requirements apply, because it's pretty much API and not just user visible stuff.

Also, I'm thinking that we should probably not track the manager session through leader, as that would contradict with #28367

Also, I'm thinking that we should probably not track the manager session through leader, as that would contradict with #28367

That sounds more as if we should add the ability to update the leader process or something like that, including a way to temporarily unset it.

Previously, all user code was part of a session except for the code run
as part of user@.service, which wasn't. This tries to make this more
uniform: we'll track the user@.service runtime also as a session, but of
the special type "manager".

This means we have a really good overview finally of all user code that
is running and can make decisions on what to start when and how long to
keep it around. The pam_systemd client side will now be reasonably
uniform: it just calls the CreateSession() bus call with the right
class, and we'll return any data it needs. This means the weird
"side-channel" we previously used to initialize XDG_RUNTIME_DIR for the
user@.service goes away (see next commit).

This conditionalizes various behaviours now cleanly depending on the
session class:

1. SESSION_CLASS_WANTS_SCOPE() will be true for all classes except for
   the manager class. It declares whther the client shall be migrated
   into their own scope, which we generally want for sessions but not
   for the manager, since it already has its own service unit.

2. SESSION_CLASS_WANTS_SERVICE_MANAGER() will be true for all classes
   except for the manager class. It declares whether we shall start the
   service manager if a session of this class is around. Of course, this
   is off for the service manager, since this would always pin itself.

3. SESSION_CLASS_PIN_USER() will be true for all classes except for the
   manager class. It declares whether the we shall keep the User
   structure around for a user as long as the session is around.

Now you might wonder why have these as three functions, even though they
mostly give the same answers?

That's because this all is preparation to add further session classes
later that will return different answers for the three calls. (For
example, a later patch adds "background-light" which will return true
for SESSION_CLASS_WANTS_SCOPE() and SESSION_CLASS_PIN_USER(), but false
for SESSION_CLASS_WANTS_SERVICE_MANAGER(). i.e. it will get a scope, and
pin user tracking, but not start a service manager.
Now that we have thew new class, start making us of it in pam_systemd.so
when running for user@.service.
This is the same as the "background" class, but does *not* pull in a
service manager. It might be useful for things like select cron jobs
that do not intend to call per-user IPC calls.

Fixes: systemd#23978
…to a session

Let's streamline the logic that decides whether the screen lock, idle
timeout or display election mechanism applies to a session class. Let's
add explicitly SESSION_CLASS_IS_XYZ() macros for each, and then resue
them at all suitable places, and refuse any attempts to use the
functionality on the wrong clases with a friendly error message.
In logind we generally want to stop user@.service for a user once they
log out. So the usual rule is that whenever a User object is around that
has no pinning sessions we should close it.

Except that it isn't that easy. We allow that user@.service is also
manually started, in which case the User object is created but not
pinned by any session.

Let's rework how this is handled: we define two different GC modes. In
one GC mode we'll keep the User object around whenever *any* session
exists (thus: including the user@.service session), and one where we
only keep it around whenever a *pinning* session exists (i.e. when a
user actually logs in, but the user@.service session doesn't count like
that).

And the trick is now that we start out in the *any* GC mode, and switch
to the *pinning* GC mode once the first user session logs in.

This should make things more robust as we know exactly in which state we
are and when to GC a user.
We only want to do this for fully set up, interactive sessions, i.e.
user and user-early, but not for any others, hence restrict the rules a
bit.

Force pushed a new version, with the points addressed, except for those discussed above.

This includes two trivial commits on top, that make some restrictions on the TakeDevice() and SetType() bus calls. THe former was suggsted by @YHNdnzj above.

Before systemd#30884, the user state is tied to user@.service (user service
manager). However, systemd#30884 introduced sessions that need no manager,
and we can no longer rely on that.

Consider the following situation:

1. A 'background-light' session '1' is created (i.e. no user service manager
   is needed)
2. Session '1' scope unit pulls in user-runtime-dir@.service
3. Session '1' exits. A stop job is enqueued for user-runtime-dir@.service
   due to StopWhenUnneeded=yes
4. At the same time, another session '2' which requires user manager is started.
   However, session scope units have JobMode=fail, therefore the start job
   for user-runtime-dir@.service that was pulled in by session '2' scope job
   is deleted as it conflicts with the stop job.

We want session scope units to continue using JobMode=fail, but we still need
the dependencies to be started correctly, i.e. explicitly requested by logind
beforehand. Therefore, let's stop using StopWhenUnneeded=yes for
user-runtime-dir@.service, and track users' `started` and `stopping` state
based on that when user@.service is not needed. Then, for every invocation
of user_start(), we'll recheck if we need the service manager and start it
if so.

Also, the dependency type on user-runtime-dir@.service from user@.service
is upgraded to `BindsTo=`, in order to ensure that when logind stops the
former, the latter is stopped as well.

1. A 'background-light' session '1' is created (i.e. no user service manager
   is needed)
2. Session '1' scope unit pulls in user-runtime-dir@.service
3. Session '1' exits. A stop job is enqueued for user-runtime-dir@.service
   due to StopWhenUnneeded=yes
4. At the same time, another session '2' which requires user manager is started.
   However, session scope units have JobMode=fail, therefore the start job
   for user-runtime-dir@.service that was pulled in by session '2' scope job
   is deleted as it conflicts with the stop job.

We want session scope units to continue using JobMode=fail, but we still need
the dependencies to be started correctly, i.e. explicitly requested by logind
beforehand. Therefore, let's stop using StopWhenUnneeded=yes for
user-runtime-dir@.service, and track users' `started` and `stopping` state
based on that when user@.service is not needed. Then, for every invocation
of user_start(), we'll recheck if we need the service manager and start it
if so.

Also, the dependency type on user-runtime-dir@.service from user@.service
is upgraded to `BindsTo=`, in order to ensure that when logind stops the
former, the latter is stopped as well.

Before systemd#30884, the user state is tied to user@.service (user service
manager). However, systemd#30884 introduced sessions that need no manager,
and we can no longer rely on that.

1. A 'background-light' session '1' is created (i.e. no user service manager
   is needed)
2. Session '1' scope unit pulls in user-runtime-dir@.service
