Apply a PAM session to run/task/sysv/services Finit starts, pam_limits
above all, so a service running as a given user picks up that user's
limits the way a login does.
Add a new `pam` setting for the new block format (only), like the
per-service directories, naming a file in /etc/pam.d:
service weston {
user = "weston"
pam = "weston-autologin"
command = "/usr/bin/weston --continue-without-input"
}
pam_close_session() has to be called by a process still holding the
handle, and the handle does not survive exec(). Hence the keeper: it
holds the handle, drops to the service's credentials, and waits for a
parent-death signal before closing the session. Same shape as
systemd's (sd-pam), for the same reason, and one per fork, so the
script hooks open and close their own.
The keeper closes the descriptors it inherited from Finit and only
those. Closing everything would also take out what pam_open_session()
opened for itself, a keyring fd or a lock file, and leave the modules
to close a session with those pulled out from under them. Closing
nothing, as (sd-pam) does, would leave it holding the write end of the
notify pipe for the service's whole lifetime and starve notify = "s6"
services of their ready signal. So the fds open before pam_start()
are snapshotted and exactly those are closed, while the ones PAM opens
after are marked close-on-exec so the daemon does not inherit them
either.
A refused value, a denied account stack, an uninstalled pam.d file,
and a build without PAM support all keep the service from starting
rather than running it with the stacks skipped: one that quietly loses
pam_limits and its private /tmp, with nothing said. Capabilities a
module like pam_cap.so granted are merged into the IAB Finit applies
instead of being replaced by it, which only helps a service that also
sets capabilities, the other arm being a plain setuid() with nothing
left to restore once permitted is empty.
The test sysroot gains pam_permit.so, pam_deny.so and pam_limits.so,
which ldd cannot see, libpam dlopen()s them, and the test skips when
the host has none to stage. The negative cases pin the exit status
rather than only asserting crashed, which serv reports for any early
exit, so a bad command or an unwritable pidfile cannot pass for a
rejected session.

keventd links libblkid, which finit itself does not, but sysroot.mk
only copied the libraries finit links. Inside the sysroot keventd
then fails to start:
Service keventd[18] died (exit status: 127)
Collect libraries from finit and everything installed under
libexec/finit/ instead.

A pass over the whole branch before merge, mostly in libink since
that is the new code and the part exposed to the wire. Grouped here
rather than scattered so the review is easy to read in one place.
libink parser and dispatch:
- Bound reader lengths so a 32-bit size_t can't wrap a wire length
past the guard and read out of bounds. Reachable pre-auth on any
bus, so it matters on the 32-bit targets Finit runs on.
- Drop a peer when a reply send fails instead of limping on with a
half-written frame; a built-in whose send failed used to fall
through and put a second frame on the wire.
initctl:
- Copy a D-Bus error name out of the reply before closing the client;
the reply points into memory the close frees. Both error paths now
share one helper so this can't creep back.
Authorization:
- Take the caller's groups from the kernel (SO_PEERCRED plus
SO_PEERGROUPS) rather than getpwuid()/getgrouplist(), which go
through NSS and can block PID 1 on a slow LDAP or SSSD backend.
The check is now a lookup against the group resolved once at init,
with no NSS and no 256 KiB array on the stack. A caller reaching
us through a broker carries no group set, so system-bus privileged
methods are root-only; the local bus keeps group support. See
libink/README.md for the note on lifting that.
Shutdown:
- Call dbus_exit() from the shutdown path so the server, its peers,
and the socket are let go cleanly. The teardown existed but nobody
called it.
Tests, CI, docs:
- A fuzz target for the message parser, run as a quick sweep in the
suite and properly under libFuzzer in CI, with the corpus carried
between runs. The -as-uid tests drop groups the way a login does
so SO_PEERGROUPS sees the right set, and widen the test socket to
reach the per-method check behind the 0660 gate. Bring the GitHub
actions up to versions that run on Node 24, and tidy a few small
things a /simplify pass turned up.

The other dbus-*.sh tests drive libink's own client, so the wire format
was only ever checked against the implementation that wrote it, and the
broker path had no coverage at all. Every bug found in it so far was
found by hand on a target.
Let the dbus plugin bring up a real dbus-daemon, wait for Finit to
claim org.finit, then talk to Finit with dbus-send, which shares no
code with us. The privileged call is the interesting one: it can only
be answered by parking the call and asking the broker who sent it.
The bus reads the policy Finit installs, so a malformed org.finit.conf
fails here rather than on a target.
Tests no longer build --with-libsystemd. Our replacement carries the
real soname but only the sd_notify() symbols, so in the test root it
shadowed the libsystemd the host's libdbus-1 wants and dbus-daemon
died on a missing sd_is_socket. Nothing under test needs the shared
library: serv is the only consumer and it compiles sd-daemon.c
straight in, which it now does regardless of the flag so notify.sh
keeps testing notify:systemd either way.
Staged from the host by lib/sysroot.mk like any other binary, and
skipped when the host has neither program.

libink was written against the only bus it had, its own, where the
peer on the other end is the client. A broker is not: it routes for
senders it names itself, expects a DESTINATION on anything addressed
through it, and answers on its own schedule rather than next.
Runlevels go on the wire as S and N rather than the digits Finit
keeps internally, since that is what a caller outside Finit means by
one.
The library stays a convenience library, linked into finit and
initctl and installed nowhere: the ABI promise waits until libink is
its own project.

The bus can already answer questions and change services, so give
initctl the two things it still did another way: watching signals as
they happen, and getting or setting user conditions.
The dbus tests move with it, split by area rather than one file that
grew every time the library did.

The line-based format has had the flag since v4.4 (issue #286), where
it prepends -p to the built-in getty, which turns it into login -p and
passes the environment on. The block format was written from the three
documented tty variants and the flags listed in the tty documentation,
and passenv was in neither, so it was left out. Converting a tty line
that used it therefore lost it, with nothing said.
It only reaches the built-in getty. An external getty is handed its
arguments through command, so there is nowhere to put a -p, and the
setting is refused with a warning rather than quietly ignored.

A service that drops privileges cannot create its own PID file in
/run, root owns it. Finit can create the file with pidfile-create,
but the daemon still cannot touch it to confirm a SIGHUP.
Five new settings, block format only: runtime-dir, state-dir,
cache-dir, logs-dir, and config-dir. The value is a directory name,
resolved under /run, /var/lib, /var/cache, /var/log, and /etc,
respectively. The directory is created before the service starts,
mode 0755 owned by user/group, and the full path is exported to the
process as RUNTIME_DIRECTORY, STATE_DIRECTORY, CACHE_DIRECTORY,
LOGS_DIRECTORY, and CONFIGURATION_DIRECTORY. Mode and ownership are
asserted at creation only, a daemon may tighten them afterwards.
The runtime directory is removed when the unit stops, after any
exec-stop-post script, like systemd with RuntimeDirectoryPreserve=no.
A completed run/task counts as stopped unless remain-after-exit keeps
it up. The other four persist across restarts.
These are the first settings with no legacy token: they are validated
by service_set_dir() and stored on the svc that service_register()
now returns. systemd accepts a list of directories per setting; this
is a single name for now, widening later is compatible since
libconfuse accepts a bare value for a list option.
The test sysroot gains libnss_files.so.2, which ldd cannot see, glibc
dlopen()s it. Without it getpwnam() fails inside the chroot, so
user/group settings never resolved and directory ownership could not
be tested.

'make check' refreshes the sysroot through the setup-chroot rule, but
running a test script by hand does not, so the test exercises whichever
finit was installed last and reports on code that is no longer there.
Both a passing and a failing run are then meaningless, and nothing says
so.
Compare the built binary against the installed one at startup and fail
with the command that fixes it.

The one-liner format has grown crowded and very wide, and every new
service option makes it worse.
Add a second, block-based format, parsed with libconfuse:
service sshd {
description = "OpenSSH daemon"
runlevel = "2345"
command = "/usr/sbin/sshd -D $SSHD_OPTS"
}
Both formats keep the .conf extension and are detected per file by
content. Try-parse strictly with libconfuse; on a parse error,
re-parse leniently to tell a block file with a typo from a one-liner
file. Only a one-liner file reaches the legacy parser, a typo is
reported with its file and line.
Each block is translated to the canonical one-liner and registered
through the existing entry points, so the two formats cannot drift.
The one-liner parser is frozen at the 4.x feature set, new options
land only in the block schema. libconfuse 3.3 or later is required,
CFGF_KEYSTRVAL does not exist before it.
Covers service, task, run, sysv and tty blocks, the static directives,
and the cgroup, rlimit, set and log blocks. Templating and the
documentation rewrite are still to come.
The regression test covers translation of a service block to the
one-liner, a block-format /etc/finit.conf booting with set {} applied
at bootstrap, both formats side by side, and rejection of a typo at
block and at root level.
A rejected file must not fall through to the legacy parser, which
registers a bogus unstartable service per line. assert_num_children
cannot see that, the bogus service has no children either, so the
check is assert_num_services.

Every test left a stray `sleep 300` behind, reparented to PID 1, where
it lingered for up to five minutes after the test had finished.
wdstart() runs the watchdog in a subshell, so $! is the pid of the
subshell, not of the sleep it forks. wdkill() killed the subshell and
orphaned the sleep.
Kill the child first, killing the subshell puts the sleep beyond the
reach of pkill -P. Neither kill is sure to match, and wdkill() runs
from the EXIT trap under set -e, so both must tolerate failure. Also
return early when wdpid is unset, for failures before wdstart() runs.

Drop complete() logic, waiting for run tasks to finish, from the
service_start() funciton to the general service_monitor(). This
refactor frees up the main loop and allows us to answer any API
calls from initctl even from the run task itself.

Bootstrap-only tests that just verify basic functionality are often very
short. This change handles that by retrying SIGUSR2 until Finit has had
the chance to finalize bootstrap and enable signals.
