Make it easier to figure out how to use the journalctl export format.
|
|
As requested in
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/4864#pullrequestreview-12372557.
docbook will substitute triple dots for the ellipsis in man output, so this has
no effect on the troff output, only on HTML, making it infinitesimally nicer.
In some places we show output from programs, which use dots, and those places
should not be changed. In some tables, the alignment would change if dots were
changed to the ellipsis which is only one character. Since docbook replaces the
ellipsis automatically, we should leave those be. This patch changes all other
places.

It is useful to look at a (possibly inactive) container or other os tree
with --root=/path/to/container. This is similar to specifying
--directory=/path/to/container/var/log/journal --directory=/path/to/container/run/systemd/journal
(if using --directory multiple times was allowed), but doesn't require
as much typing.
|

This new output mode formats all timestamps using the usual format_timestamp()
call we use pretty much everywhere else. Timestamps formatted this way are some
ways more useful than traditional syslog timestamps as they include weekday,
month and timezone information, while not being much longer. They are also not
locale-dependent. The primary advantage however is that they may be passed
directly to journalctl's --since= and --until= switches as soon as #3869 is
merged.
While we are at it, let's also add "short-unix" to shell completion.

* Specifying a device node has an effect much larger than a simple shortcut
for a field/value match, so the original sentence is no longer a good way
to start the paragraph.
* Specifying a device node causes matches to be generated for all ancestor
devices of the device specified, not just its parents.
* Indicates that the path must be absolute, but that it may be a link.
* Eliminates a few typos.

This suppresses output of the hostname for messages from the local system.
Fixes: #2342

1970 UTC
aka "UNIX time".
Fixes: #2120
|
|
* man: change time unit specifier for minutes to "m", not "min".
To alert the reader to the fact that the ambiguous prefix "m" will be
interpreted as minutes, not months.
* man: change 'journal files' to 'archived journal files'.
So that the user may be reminded why they see log entries in the journal
from a time previous to the one they specified when using --vacuum-time.

journalctl: add match for the current boot when called with devpath (v2)
|
|
|
|
Fixes #2176
|
|
Of course, ideally we'd just use normal synchronous bus calls, but this
is out of the question as long as we rely on dbus-daemon (which logs to
journald, and thus cannot use to avoid cyclic sync loops). Hence,
instead, reuse the wait logic already implemented for --sync, and use a
signal in one direction, and a mtime watch file for the reply.
|
|
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.

Fixes #1514.

We don't actually accept patterns, hence don't claim so. This is a
fix-up for 730836403aee5f5bb998e6e3622ea7068fce0699.
Fixes #1256.

Implement a maximum limit on number of journal files to keep around.
Enforcing a limit is useful on this since our performance when viewing
pays a heavy penalty for each journal file to interleve. This setting is
turned on now by default, and set to 100.
Also, actully implement what 348ced909724a1331b85d57aede80a102a00e428
promised: use whatever we find on disk at startup as lower bound on how
much disk space we can use. That commit introduced some provisions to
implement this, but actually never did.
This also adds "journalctl --vacuum-files=" to vacuum files on disk by
their number explicitly.

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.

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 never worked, and nobody ever worked on it, hence don't mention it.

Reindent with two spaces, use non-breaking spaces, add <literal> tags.

journal files based on a size/time limit
This is equivalent to the effect of SystemMaxUse= and RetentionSec=,
however can be invoked directly instead of implicitly.
|
|

systemd-journal-flush.service
This new command will ask the journal daemon to flush all log data
stored in /run to /var, and wait for it to complete. This is useful, so
that in case of Storage=persistent we can order systemd-tmpfiles-setup
afterwards, to ensure any possibly newly created directory in /var/log
gets proper access mode and owners.

Introduce option to display time in UTC.

This turns journalctl to the counterpart of systemd-cat.
Messages sent with
systemd-cat --identifier foo --prioritiy debug
can now be shown with
journalctl --identifier foo --prioritiy debug
"--identifier" is not merged with "--unit" to make a clear
distinction between syslog and systemd units.
syslog identifiers can be chosen freely by anyone.

Also, provide an example for -u.

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?

Issues fixed:
* missing words required by grammar
* duplicated or extraneous words
* inappropriate forms (e.g. singular/plural), and declinations
* orthographic misspellings

Resolve spotted issues related to missing or extraneous commas, dashes.

I only tested with python-lxml. I'm not sure if xml.etree should be
deprecated.

This allows customization of the arguments used by less. The main
motivation is that some folks might not like having --no-init on every
invocation of less.

This is a continuation of e3e0314b systemctl: allow globbing in commands
which take multiple unit names.
Multiple patterns can be specified, as separate arguments, or as one argument
with patterns seperated by commas.
If patterns are given, at least one unit must be matched (by any of the patterns).
This is different behaviour than systemctl, but here it is necessary because
otherwise anything would be matched, which is unlikely to be the intended
behaviour.

This is a recurring submission and includes corrections to:
- missing words, preposition choice.
- change of /lib to /usr/lib, because that is what most distros are
using as the system-wide location for systemd/udev files.

In journalctl(1), be more explicit about the reference to "Seal=" in
journald.conf(5) and what information can be found there.
