* journal: give the ability to enable/disable systemd-journald-audit.socketFranck Bui2023-01-111-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | Before this patch the only way to prevent journald from reading the audit messages was to mask systemd-journald-audit.socket. However this had main drawback that downstream couldn't ship the socket disabled by default (beside the fact that masking units is not supposed to be the usual way to disable them). Fixes #15777

* man: use same header for all filesZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2019-03-141-1/+1
| | | | | | | The "include" files had type "book" for some raeason. I don't think this is meaningful. Let's just use the same everywhere. $ perl -i -0pe 's^..DOCTYPE (book|refentry) PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.[25]//EN"\s+"http^<!DOCTYPE refentry PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.5//EN"\n "http^gms' man/*.xml

* man: fix reference to sd_journal_print(3)Filipe Brandenburger2018-12-071-2/+2
| | | | | | | | The reference in systemd-journald.service(8) was incorrectly pointing to man volume 4 instead of 3. This commit should fix the broken link at https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd-journald.service.html
* man: use singular “they”Lucas Werkmeister2018-08-231-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | For an example where we already use it, see man:sd-login(3): > A session is defined by the time a user is logged in until they log out. As far as I can tell, this removes the only remaining occurrences of referring to users by gendered pronouns in our documentation (though some still survive in code comments and the NEWS and TODO files): git grep '\b\(he\|him\|his\|she\|her\|hers\)\b' man/
* man: drop unused <authorgroup> tags from man sourcesZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2018-06-141-9/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | Docbook styles required those to be present, even though the templates that we use did not show those names anywhere. But something changed semi-recently (I would suspect docbook templates, but there was only a minor version bump in recent years, and the changelog does not suggest anything related), and builds now work without those entries. Let's drop this dead weight. Tested with F26-F29, debian unstable. $ perl -i -0pe 's/\s*<authorgroup>.*<.authorgroup>//gms' man/*xml
* tree-wide: remove Lennart's copyright linesLennart Poettering2018-06-141-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | These lines are generally out-of-date, incomplete and unnecessary. With SPDX and git repository much more accurate and fine grained information about licensing and authorship is available, hence let's drop the per-file copyright notice. Of course, removing copyright lines of others is problematic, hence this commit only removes my own lines and leaves all others untouched. It might be nicer if sooner or later those could go away too, making git the only and accurate source of authorship information.
* tree-wide: drop 'This file is part of systemd' blurbLennart Poettering2018-06-141-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This part of the copyright blurb stems from the GPL use recommendations: https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.en.html The concept appears to originate in times where version control was per file, instead of per tree, and was a way to glue the files together. Ultimately, we nowadays don't live in that world anymore, and this information is entirely useless anyway, as people are very welcome to copy these files into any projects they like, and they shouldn't have to change bits that are part of our copyright header for that. hence, let's just get rid of this old cruft, and shorten our codebase a bit.
* tree-wide: drop license boilerplateZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2018-04-061-13/+0
| | | | | | | | | | Files which are installed as-is (any .service and other unit files, .conf files, .policy files, etc), are left as is. My assumption is that SPDX identifiers are not yet that well known, so it's better to retain the extended header to avoid any doubt. I also kept any copyright lines. We can probably remove them, but it'd nice to obtain explicit acks from all involved authors before doing that.
* man: mention that oldest journal files are removedZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2018-03-241-1/+6
| | | | Fixes #7225.
* man: add a note about "archived" journal files and when files can be copiedZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2018-03-241-6/+15
| | | | | | | | | Issue #6673 requests advice on backup strategy. But the right backup strategy depends on many factors, too many to describe in a man page. So let's just provide some general information which files are mutable and that it is always safe to use/copy files. Closes #6673.

* journald: make maximum size of stream log lines configurable and bump it to ↵Lennart Poettering2017-09-221-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 48K (#6838) This adds a new setting LineMax= to journald.conf, and sets it by default to 48K. When we convert stream-based stdout/stderr logging into record-based log entries, read up to the specified amount of bytes before forcing a line-break. This also makes three related changes: - When a NUL byte is read we'll not recognize this as alternative line break, instead of silently dropping everything after it. (see #4863) - The reason for a line-break is now encoded in the log record, if it wasn't a plain newline. Specifically, we distuingish "nul", "line-max" and "eof", for line breaks due to NUL byte, due to the maximum line length as configured with LineMax= or due to end of stream. This data is stored in the new implicit _LINE_BREAK= field. It's not synthesized for plain \n line breaks. - A randomized 128bit ID is assigned to each log stream. With these three changes in place it's (mostly) possible to reconstruct the original byte streams from log data, as (most) of the context of the conversion from the byte stream to log records is saved now. (So, the only bits we still drop are empty lines. Which might be something to look into in a future change, and which is outside of the scope of this work) Fixes: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=86465 See: #4863 Replaces: #4875

* man: remove section about syslog forwardingEvgeny Vereshchagin2015-11-181-7/+0
| | | | | | | | journald: turn ForwardToSyslog= off by default After all, rsyslog and friends nowadays read their data directly from the journal, hence the forwarding is unnecessary in most cases. see 46b131574fdd7d77c15a0919ca9010c
* journalctl: add new --sync switch for syncing the journal to diskLennart Poettering2015-11-111-4/+19
| | | | | | | | | | With this new "--sync" switch we add a synchronous way to sync everything queued to disk, and return only after that's complete. This command gives the guarantee that anything queued before has hit the disk before the command returns. While we are at it, also improve the man pages and help text for journalctl a bit.

* man: revert dynamic paths for split-usr setupsTom Gundersen2015-06-181-6/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This did not really work out as we had hoped. Trying to do this upstream introduced several problems that probably makes it better suited as a downstream patch after all. At any rate, it is not releaseable in the current state, so we at least need to revert this before the release. * by adjusting the path to binaries, but not do the same thing to the search path we end up with inconsistent man-pages. Adjusting the search path too would be quite messy, and it is not at all obvious that this is worth the effort, but at any rate it would have to be done before we could ship this. * this means that distributed man-pages does not make sense as they depend on config options, and for better or worse we are still distributing man pages, so that is something that definitely needs sorting out before we could ship with this patch. * we have long held that split-usr is only minimally supported in order to boot, and something we hope will eventually go away. So before we start adding even more magic/effort in order to make this work nicely, we should probably question if it makes sense at all.
* man: generate configured paths in manpagesFilipe Brandenburger2015-05-281-3/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In particular, use /lib/systemd instead of /usr/lib/systemd in distributions like Debian which still have not adopted a /usr merge setup. Use XML entities from man/custom-entities.ent to replace configured paths while doing XSLT processing of the original XML files. There was precedent of some files (such as systemd.generator.xml) which were already using this approach. This addresses most of the (manual) fixes from this patch: http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-systemd/systemd.git/tree/debian/patches/Fix-paths-in-man-pages.patch?h=experimental-220 The idea of using generic XML entities was presented here: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2015-May/032240.html This patch solves almost all the issues, with the exception of: - Path to /bin/mount and /bin/umount. - Generic statements about preference of /lib over /etc. These will be handled separately by follow up patches. Tested: - With default configure settings, ran "make install" to two separate directories and compared the output to confirm they matched exactly. - Used a set of configure flags including $CONFFLAGS from Debian: http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-systemd/systemd.git/tree/debian/rules Installed the tree and confirmed the paths use /lib/systemd instead of /usr/lib/systemd and that no other unexpected differences exist. - Confirmed that `make distcheck` still passes.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is annoying when we have dead links on fd.o. Add project='man-pages|die-net|archlinux' to <citerefentry>-ies. In generated html, add external links to http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man, http://linux.die.net/man/, https://www.archlinux.org/. By default, pages in sections 2 and 4 go to man7, since Michael Kerrisk is the autorative source on kernel related stuff. The rest of links goes to linux.die.net, because they have the manpages. Except for the pacman stuff, since it seems to be only available from archlinux.org. Poor gummiboot gets no link, because gummitboot(8) ain't to be found on the net. According to common wisdom, that would mean that it does not exist. But I have seen Kay using it, so I know it does, and deserves to be found. Can somebody be nice and put it up somewhere?
* journald: move /dev/log socket to /runLennart Poettering2014-06-041-0/+2
| | | | | | This way we can make the socket also available for sandboxed apps that have their own private /dev. They can now simply symlink the socket from /dev.
* journald: add support for wall forwardingSebastian Thorarensen2014-03-141-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This will let journald forward logs as messages sent to all logged in users (like wall). Two options are added: * ForwardToWall (default yes) * MaxLevelWall (default emerg) 'ForwardToWall' is overridable by kernel command line option 'systemd.journald.forward_to_wall'. This is used to emulate the traditional syslogd behaviour of sending emergency messages to all logged in users.

* man: replace STDOUT with standard output, etc.Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2014-02-141-8/+8
| | | | | | | | | Actually 'STDOUT' is something that doesn't appear anywhere: in the stdlib we have 'stdin', and there's only the constant STDOUT_FILENO, so there's no reason to use capitals. When refering to code, STDOUT/STDOUT/STDERR are replaced with stdin/stdout/stderr, and in other places they are replaced with normal phrases like standard output, etc.

| | | | | | | | | | | | This is a recurring submission and includes corrections to various issue spotted. I guess I can just skip over reporting ubiquitous comma placement fixes… Highligts in this particular commit: - the "unsigned" type qualifier is completed to form a full type "unsigned int" - alphabetic -> lexicographic (that way we automatically define how numbers get sorted)
