- What I did

Replace direct systemctl exec calls with a systemd abstraction layer that uses the coreos/go-systemd library. The new SystemdManager factory pattern improves performance, maintainability, and testing by introducing easily mockable interfaces and enabling connection reuse.

There are two ways of using the new interfaces:

  • DoConnection() for single operations with automatic cleanup
  • NewConnection() for batching multiple operations on one connection

- How to verify it

TBD

- Description for the changelog

TBD

Walkthrough

The daemon replaces direct systemctl calls with reusable systemd D-Bus connections. Service, unit, certificate, CRI-O, RPM-OSTree, and update workflows now use injected systemd managers with bounded contexts and contextual errors.

Changes

Systemd D-Bus migration

Layer / File(s) Summary
Systemd contracts and operations
pkg/daemon/systemd.go, pkg/daemon/systemd_mocks_test.go, pkg/daemon/systemd_test.go, go.mod
Adds systemd manager and connection interfaces, normalized unit operations, job completion handling, daemon reloads, presets, unit queries, mocks, and normalization tests.
Manager dependency wiring
pkg/daemon/daemon.go, pkg/daemon/pinned_image_set.go, pkg/daemon/rpm-ostree.go, pkg/daemon/constants/constants.go, pkg/daemon/pinned_image_set_test.go
Injects systemd managers into daemon components. CRI-O and RPM-OSTree operations use managed reload and restart calls.
Update and unit lifecycle workflows
pkg/daemon/update.go
Migrates service actions, daemon reloads, unit enablement, presets, stale-unit cleanup, and revert-service disabling to shared systemd connections.
Certificate rotation and unit writing
pkg/daemon/certificate_writer.go, pkg/daemon/file_writers.go, pkg/daemon/config_drift_monitor_test.go
Migrates kubelet certificate rotation and unit writing to systemd APIs with 60-second contexts, connection cleanup, and per-unit test setup.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 8d740

This change replaces systemctl execution with D-Bus calls, but preset operations can currently fail because the returned data is stored using an incompatible type, and closed connections may be reused for later systemd operations. These bounded correctness and availability risks should be fixed before merging.

128-142: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Align the mock IsEnabled behavior with the real implementation.

systemdConnectionImpl.IsEnabled returns (false, nil) for a unit that has no enabled unit file, because ListUnitFilesByPatternsContext returns an empty list. The mock returns an error for any unit that is absent from the map. writeUnit in pkg/daemon/file_writers.go treats that error as fatal and aborts the unit write. Tests that write a new unit must therefore pre-seed the map, and they cannot exercise the real "unit not yet present" path.

Return (false, nil) for an unknown unit, and use OnIsEnabledFunc when a test needs the error path.

Proposed behavior fix
 	// Default behavior: return enabled state from units map
 	if unit, ok := m.units[unitName]; ok {
 		return unit.enabled, nil
 	}
-	return false, fmt.Errorf("unit %q not found", unitName)
+	// Match the real implementation: an unknown unit is reported as not enabled.
+	return false, nil

87-110: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Normalize unit names in the mock, or document that the mock uses raw names.

systemdConnectionImpl normalizes every unit name before the D-Bus call, so production state keys on "crio.service". The mock keys on the exact string that the caller passes, so "crio" and "crio.service" are separate units. A test that seeds "crio.service" and calls Enable(ctx, false, "crio") creates a second entry instead of updating the first. Call NormalizeSystemdUnitNames in the mock methods to keep mock state consistent with production state.

- Around line 370-398: Update systemdConnectionImpl.Preset to use the managed
private connection created by NewSystemdConnectionContext instead of
dbus.SystemBus, and invoke PresetUnitFiles through that connection. Extend or
vendor the go-systemd connection API as needed to provide the missing
context-aware PresetUnitFiles operation, preserving error wrapping and cleanup
through systemdConnectionImpl.Close.

In `@pkg/daemon/update.go`:
- Around line 154-159: Update the post-config service-action flow to establish
the systemd D-Bus connection lazily only in branches that perform a systemd
operation, preserving connection-free behavior for reboot, none, and drain-only
actions. In deleteStaleData, defer creating the connection until immediately
before the first required presetUnit call, and reuse it for subsequent presets.
- Around line 154-159: Update the workflow containing NewConnection to create
one timeout-bound context covering the longest supported systemd action, and
reuse it for NewConnection, DoConnection, every shared-connection operation, and
listSystemdUnits instead of context.Background(). Ensure all D-Bus calls share
the deadline and can cancel if no response arrives.

Apply the same fix in `@pkg/daemon/daemon.go` at line 1178: The reload in
syncNodeHypershift also uses an unbounded context.

Apply the same fix in `@pkg/daemon/certificate_writer.go` around lines 298 - 337:
The certificate update path performs multiple systemd operations with
context.Background().

Handle the CRI-O reload failure.

Line 1089 discards the error from p.crioReload(). If the reload fails after the drop-in file is removed, CRI-O can continue using the removed pinned-image configuration until a later successful reload. Report the error and schedule a retry or requeue the reconciliation.

coreos go-systemd v22 dbus PresetUnitFilesContext method

💡 Result:

The coreos/go-systemd/v22 library does not contain a method named PresetUnitFilesContext. Upon reviewing the dbus package API [1][2], which interacts with the systemd D-Bus interface (org.freedesktop.systemd1.Manager) [3][4], there is no implementation of the PresetUnitFiles or PresetUnitFilesContext methods. The available unit management methods in the v22 dbus package include: EnableUnitFilesContext / EnableUnitFiles [3][4][5] DisableUnitFilesContext / DisableUnitFiles [6][7] LinkUnitFilesContext / LinkUnitFiles [6][5] PresetUnitFiles is a valid method within the native systemd D-Bus API, but it is not currently exposed via a dedicated method in the go-systemd/v22/dbus package [3][4]. If you need to invoke PresetUnitFiles, you must perform a raw D-Bus call using the connection object's underlying systemd manager object [3][4].

Use the private systemd connection for Preset.

NewSystemdConnectionContext uses /run/systemd/private, but godbus.SystemBus() uses the shared system D-Bus and stores that connection globally. systemdConnectionImpl.Close cannot close it. Implement PresetUnitFiles on the managed connection, such as by extending or vendoring go-systemd; PresetUnitFilesContext does not exist in v22.7.0.

🌐 Web query:

systemd Manager PresetUnitFiles preset policy enable disable official documentation

💡 Result:

The systemd preset mechanism allows administrators and distributions to define a centralized policy for whether unit files should be enabled or disabled by default upon installation [1][2][3]. This policy is implemented through preset files, which are read by the systemctl preset command [4][1][5]. Preset files are text files containing directives that specify the desired state for units [6][7][3]. The three primary directives are: enable: Sets the unit to be enabled by default [1][7][5]. disable: Sets the unit to be disabled by default [1][7][5]. ignore: Leaves the existing configuration of the unit intact, bypassing the preset policy for that specific unit [7][5]. How the System Works: 1. Application: When a package is installed, the package's post-installation script typically invokes systemctl preset [unit name] [1][2][3]. This command checks the system's preset files to determine whether to enable or disable the unit [1][8]. 2. File Location and Precedence: Preset files are stored in directories such as /usr/lib/systemd/system-preset/ (for distribution defaults) and /etc/systemd/system-preset/ (for local administrator overrides) [9][6][7][3]. Files in /etc/ override those in /usr/lib/ and /run/ [1][9][7]. 3. Ordering: All preset files across these directories are sorted lexicographically by filename [9][7][10]. If multiple files specify the same unit, the entry in the lexicographically earliest file takes precedence [2][9][7]. It is recommended to prefix filenames with a two-digit number (e.g., 00-default.preset) to simplify this ordering [9][6][7]. 4. Matching: If multiple lines within the preset files apply to a single unit, the first matching line takes precedence [7][5]. 5. Default Behavior: If no preset files exist, the default behavior is to enable all units [1][6][3]. To change this to a "disable all" policy, an administrator can create a preset file (e.g., in /etc/) with the single catch-all line disable * [1][6][7]. For more detailed information, you can consult the official documentation in the systemd.preset(5) and systemctl(1) manual pages [1][8].

Model systemd preset policy in the mock.

Preset can enable or disable a unit based on its configured preset rule. This implementation always disables the unit. Add a preset outcome to mockUnitState, or let OnPresetFunc fully control the transition.

Replace direct systemctl exec calls with a systemd abstraction layer that
uses the coreos/go-systemd library. The new SystemdManager factory pattern
improves performance, maintainability, and testing by introducing easily
mockable interfaces and enabling connection reuse.

There are two ways of using the new interfaces:
- DoConnection() for single operations with automatic cleanup
- NewConnection() for batching multiple operations on one connection

Consider normalizing unit names in the mock.

systemdConnectionImpl normalizes names inside each operation, so production keys units as crio.service. The mock keys units by the raw caller argument. If a caller passes crio and a test seeds crio.service, Disable, Start, Stop, Restart, and Preset become silent no-ops and the test passes for the wrong reason. Call NormalizeSystemdUnitNames in the mock to keep the key space identical to production.

Align IsEnabled with the production behavior for unknown units.

systemdConnectionImpl.IsEnabled queries ListUnitFilesByPatternsContext and returns false, nil when no unit matches. The mock returns an error instead. Tests that exercise an unknown unit then observe a failure that production code does not produce.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Clear s.conn in Close to prevent reuse of a closed connection.

Close closes the D-Bus connection but keeps the pointer. A later call to connect finds a non-nil s.conn and returns the closed connection, so every following operation fails. Close is also not idempotent, because a second call closes the same connection again.

🔧 Proposed fix
 func (s *systemdConnectionImpl) Close() {
 	s.connMutex.Lock()
 	defer s.connMutex.Unlock()
 	if s.conn != nil {
 		logSystem("Closing systemd D-Bus connection")
