2014-08-21journalctl: add "-t --identifier=STRING" optionHarald Hoyer
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.

2014-08-18man: mention that "units" are commonly system servicesLennart Poettering
Also, provide an example for -u.

2014-07-13man: add systemd-coredump(8) and a bunch of linksZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
2014-07-07man: add a mapping for external manpagesZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
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?
2014-02-20man: xinclude --help/--version/--no-pagerZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
2014-02-17doc: resolve missing/extraneous words or inappropriate formsJan Engelhardt
Issues fixed: * missing words required by grammar * duplicated or extraneous words * inappropriate forms (e.g. singular/plural), and declinations * orthographic misspellings
2014-02-17doc: update punctuationJan Engelhardt
Resolve spotted issues related to missing or extraneous commas, dashes.
2014-02-12man: use xinclude to de-deduplicate common textZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
I only tested with python-lxml. I'm not sure if xml.etree should be deprecated.
2014-02-12pager: support SYSTEMD_LESS environment variableJason A. Donenfeld
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.
2014-01-11journalctl: allow globbing in --unit and --user-unitZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
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. https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59336
2013-12-25man: grammar and wording improvementsJan Engelhardt
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.
2013-12-25man: improvements to comma placementJan Engelhardt
This is a recurring submission and includes corrections to: comma placement.
2013-12-18man: add DOI for refereed article on Forward Secure Sealing to journald.conf(5)Jason St. John
In journalctl(1), be more explicit about the reference to "Seal=" in journald.conf(5) and what information can be found there.
2013-12-18man: be more explicit about option arguments that take 128-bit IDs in ↵Jason St. John
journalctl(1) It may not be immediately obvious to the reader what "ID128" is, so replace the example option argument "ID128" with "128-bit-ID".
2013-12-18man: fix grammar issues in journalctl(1)Jason St. John
And add a missing <option> tag around "--setup-keys" under "--force".
2013-12-16man: describe journalctl --show-cursorZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
2013-12-11journal: add ability to browse journals of running OS containersLennart Poettering
This adds the new library call sd_journal_open_container() and a new "-M" switch to journalctl. Particular care is taken that journalctl's "-b" switch resolves to the current boot ID of the container, not the host.
2013-10-28journalctl: add --list-boots to show boot IDs and timesZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
Suggested by David Wilkins <dwilkins@maths.tcd.ie> in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=967521: > [Specific boot ID is a] bit of a palaver to obtain. I consulted the > verbose dump of the journal to discover the _BOOT_ID for the > timestamp, and then generated the journal dump for that boot using > journalctl _BOOT_ID=foo -o short-monotonic.
2013-10-15man: wording and grammar updatesJan Engelhardt
This is a recurring submission and includes corrections to various issue spotted. I guess I can just skip over reporting ubiquitous comma placement fixes…
2013-10-07journalctl: flip to --full by defaultZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
We already shew lines in full when using a pager or not on a tty. The commit disables ellipsization in the sole remaining case, namely when --follow is used. This has been a popular request for a long time, and indeed, full output seems much more useful. Old behaviour can still be requested by using --no-full. Old options retain their behaviour for compatiblity, but aren't advertised as much. This change applies only to jornalctl, not to systemctl, when ellipsization is useful to keep the layout. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=984758

This includes regularly-submitted corrections to comma setting and orthographical mishaps that appeared in man/ in recent commits. In this particular commit: - the usual comma fixes - expand contractions (this is prose)

2013-07-19man: Fix example to use the new --boot syntaxJan Janssen
2013-07-18journalctl: add ”short-iso” output format with verbose ISO8601 timestampsTomasz Torcz
Example: 2013-07-18T10:10:01+0200 sandworm CROND[20957]: (root) CMD (/usr/lib64/sa/sa1 1 1)
2013-07-17journalctl: remove ":" from the --boot syntaxZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
Instead of :-0, :1, :5, etc., use -0, 1 or +1, 5, etc. For BOOT_ID+OFFSET, use BOOT_ID+offset or BOOT_ID-offset (either + or - is required). Also make error handling a bit more robust and verbose. Modify the man page to describe the most common case (-b) first, and the second most common case (-b -1) second.
2013-07-16journalctl: augment short mode with a cursor at the endZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
Two options are added: --show-cursor to print the cursor at the end, and --after-cursor to resume logs on the next line after the previous one.
2013-07-16man: improve readability of --output options in journalctl(1)Jason St. John
The list and descriptions of valid output options was difficult to read, so break up the long block of text into discrete man page list items to improve readability.
2013-07-16journalctl: Add support for showing messages from a previous bootJan Janssen
Hi, I redid the boot ID look up to use enumerate_unique. This is quite fast if the cache is warm but painfully slow if it isn't. It has a slight chance of returning the wrong order if realtime clock jumps around. This one has to do n searches for every boot ID there is plus a sort, so it depends heavily on cache hotness. This is in contrast to the other way of look-up through filtering by a MESSAGE_ID, which only needs about 1 seek + whatever amount of relative IDs you want to walk. I also have a linked-list + (in-place) mergesort version of this patch, which has pretty much the same runtime. But since this one is using libc sorting and armortized allocation, I prefer this one. To summarize: The MESSAGE_ID way is a *lot* faster but can be incomplete due to rotation, while the enumerate+sort will find every boot ID out there but will be painfully slow for large journals and cold caches. You choose :P Jan

2013-07-14journalctl: add --force option to recreate FSSShawn Landden
2013-07-03man: more grammar improvementsJan Engelhardt
- place commas - expand contractions (this is written prose :) - add some missing words
2013-06-26man: always supply quotes around literalsZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
When manpages are displayed on a terminal, <literal>s are indistinguishable from surrounding text. Add quotes everywhere, remove duplicate quotes, and tweak a few lists for consistent formatting. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=874631
2013-06-18journal: add references to SSKG paper FSS is based onLennart Poettering

2013-06-10journalctl: allow the user to specify the file(s) to useZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
This is useful for debugging and feels pretty natural. For example answering the question "is this big .journal file worth keeping?" is made easier.
2013-06-10journalctl: add --system/--user flagsZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
--user basically gives messages from your own systemd --user services. --system basically gives messages from PID 1, kernel, and --system services. Those two options are not exahustive, because a priviledged user might be able to see messages from other users, and they will not be shown with either or both of those flags.
2013-05-21man: Document missing optionsJan Janssen
2013-05-03man: add various filenames to the indexZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
Everything which is an absolute filename marked with <filename></filename> lands in the index, unless noindex= attribute is present. Should make it easier for people to find stuff when they are looking at a file on disk. Various formatting errors in manpages are fixed, kernel-install(1) is restored to formatting sanity.
2013-04-17journalctl: specify "--unit=" and "--user-unit" multiple timesHarald Hoyer
Previously only one "--unit=" or "--user-unit" could be specified. With this patch, journalcrtl can show multiple units. $ journalctl -u systemd-udevd.service -u sshd.service -u crond.service -b -- Logs begin at Sa 2013-03-23 11:08:45 CET, end at Fr 2013-04-12 09:10:22 CEST. -- Apr 12 08:41:37 lenovo systemd[1]: Started udev Kernel Device Manager.

The ability to dump catalog entries in full and by id is added.
2013-03-18sd-journal: do not require path to be absoluteZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
Seems natural to be able to specify relative directory, e.g. with journalctl -D. And even if, this should be checked in front-end code, not in the library.
2013-03-13journalctl: show systemd messages about unit for -uZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
journalctl -u unit is not very useful, because it doesn't show systemd messages about starting, stopping, coredumps, etc, like systemctl status unit does. Make it show the same information using the same rules. If somebody really want to see just messages from by the unit, it is easy enough to use _SYSTEMD_UNIT=...

Make sure the pager does not have to buffer an unbounded number of log messages, by default.
