My service on CentOS is configured to run under a certain user in its
config file under /etc/systemd/system:



[Service]
User=buildman


When I am sued as buildman, I can run:



systemctl status myservice.service


but if I try to do start or stop, it prompts me for password.



If I do:



sudo systemctl status myservice.service


it does not prompt me because I have configured visudo:



%buildman ALL= NOPASSWD: /bin/systemctl * myservice.service


But why doesn't service stop and start work like status? I would like
to enable buildman to execute these service commands without sudo or
password.



The primary reason for this is that I need to enable service restart
from Jenkins and I ran into problems running sudo from its
container, which complained that I needed a "TTY" to run it.

status command does not require superuser rights, it works w/o sudo too.
start and stop do require sudo. You can avoid entering password but not specifying sudo.

How many registers does an x86_64 CPU actually have?

Image
Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 2 down vote favorite I am currently learning reverse engineering and am studying the flags register. I had in my mind that rflags was just another name for one of the 16 general purpose registers, for example rax or rbx . But it looks like rflags is actually an additional register. So that makes 17 registers in total... how many more could there be? I have spent at least an hour on this and found numerous different answers. The best answer so far is this, which says that there are 40 registers in total. 16 General Purpose Registers 2 Status Registers 6 Code Segment Registers 16 SSE Registers 8 FPU/MMX Registers But if I add that up, I get 48. Could anybody provide an official answer on how many registers an x86_64 CPU has (e.g. an Intel i7). Additionally, I have seen references to 'hardware' and 'architectural' registers. What are those registers and how many are there? register x86-64 share | improve this...
