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. Signed-off-by: Joachim Wiberg <troglobit@gmail.com>
