| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commits a29bb6a14b5e920092495fb9a1623e527d22daac ... 5c199d99f4dc9911d62673baba7643ea649ffe64 narrowed down on addressing the escaping of hyphens in the dynamic creation of manuals whilst avoiding them in creating help texts. This lead to a sequence of slipping through hyphens adrressed by additional patches in aforementioned commit series. On the other hand, postprocessing dynamically man-generator created and statically provided manuals catches all hyphens in need of escaping. Changes: - revert the above commits whilst keeping man-generator streamlining and the detection of any '\' when generating help texts in order to avoid escapes to slip in - Dynamically escape hyphens in manaual pages using sed(1) in the respective Makefile targets - remove any manually added escaping on hyphens from any static manual sources or headers

* man: Revise internal man page generation process.Alasdair G Kergon2017-03-14165-40/+27329
| | | | | | | | | | | For each section 8 man page, a .8_gen file is created from one of: .8_main - Old-style man page - content used directly .8_des and .8_end - Description and end section of a generated page .8_pregen - Pre-generated page used if the generator fails Other man sections are not generated and use the suffix .5_main or .7_main. Developers should use 'make generate' to regenerate the .8_pregen files.
* dmfilemapd: ensure path argument is absoluteBryn M. Reeves2017-03-131-12/+12
| | | | | | | | Require that the path argument to dmfilemapd be an absolute path and document this in tool output, libdevmapper.h and dmfilemapd.8. The check is also enforced by dm_stats_start_filemapd() to avoid forking a new process with an invalid path argument.

* lvconvert: include swap behavior in generic pool syntaxDavid Teigland2017-02-172-16/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For this syntax: lvconvert --thinpool LV1 --poolmetadata LV2 lvconvert --cachepool LV1 --poolmetadata LV2 Restore the metadata swapping behavior in addition to the pool creation behavior. When LV1 is already a pool, the metadata LV will be swapped with LV2. When LV1 is not a pool, it will be converted to a pool using the specified LV for metadata. This syntax is no longer advertised because of the ambiguous behavior. The primary syntaxes for pool creation and metadata swapping will be the advertised methods.
