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.

The description in the man page was wrong, KillUserProcesses does
not kill all processes of the user. Describe what the setting
does, and also add links between the relavant sections of the
manual.
Also, add an extensive example which shows how to launch screen
in the background.

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.

imply calling session/user instead
This turns "lock-session", "activate", "unlock-session",
"enable-linger", "disable-linger" into commands that take no argument,
optionally in which case the callers session/user is implied.

Similar for user-status and seat-status.

As usual, those common options are pushed to the end.

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 recurring submission and includes corrections to:
word omissions and word class choice.

Use [brackets] only for optional elements.
Use <optional> in XML sources.

NOTE: the show-* subcommands do not print some properties:
this are those with types like (so), a(so), (uo),...
we need to fix this, but I'm not sure how

This is a recurring submission and includes corrections to various
issue spotted: comma setting, missing words/preposition choice.

Since cgroups are mostly now an implementation detail of systemd lets
deemphasize it a bit in the man pages. This renames systemd.cgroup(5) to
systemd.resource-control(5) and uses the term "resource control" rather
than "cgroup" where appropriate.
This leaves the word "cgroup" in at a couple of places though, like for
example systemd-cgtop and systemd-cgls where cgroup stuff is at the core
of what is happening.

- place commas
- expand contractions (this is written prose :)
- add some missing words
|
|
|
|
Use proper grammar, word usage, adjective hyphenation, commas,
capitalization, spelling, etc.
To improve readability, some run-on sentences or sentence fragments were
revised.
[zj: remove the space from 'file name', 'host name', and 'time zone'.]

Option listings seemed to be pretty much random, some were short opt,
long opt, others were long opt, short opt. This just makes every option
with a short and long opt that I could find in the order short opt, long
opt, for formatting's sake.

man rules were repeating the same information in too many places,
which was error prone. Those rules can be easily generated from .xml
files. For efficiency and because python is not a required dependency,
Makefile-man.am is only regenerated when requested with
make update-man-list
If no metadata in man/*.xml changed, this file should not change. So
only when a new man page or a new alias is added, this file should
show up in 'git diff'. The change should then be committed.
If the support for building from git without python was dropped, we
could drop Makefile-man.am from version control. This would also
increase the partial build time (since more stuff would be rebuild
whenever sources in man/*.xml would be modified), so it would probably
wouldn't be worth it.

New sections are added: PAM options, crypttab options, commandline
options, miscellaneous. The last category will be used for all
untagged <varname> elements.
Commandline options sections is meant to be a developer tool: when
adding an option it is sometimes useful to be able to check if
similarly named options exist elsewhere.

specified
New file output.h with output flags and modes.
--full parameter also for cgls and loginctl.
Include 'all' parameter in flags (show_cgroup_by_path, show_cgroup,
show_cgroup_and_extra, show_cgroup_and_extra_by_spec).
get_process_cmdline with max_length == 0 will not ellipsize output.
Replace LINE_MAX with 0 in some calls of get_process_cmdline.
[zj: Default to --full when under pager for clgs.
Drop '-f' since it wasn't documented and didn't actually work.
Reindent a bit.

Fixed typos, serial comma, and removed "either" as there were more
than two options. Also did an extra rename of "system-shutdown"
to "systemd-shutdown" that was forgotten in commit

We finally got the OK from all contributors with non-trivial commits to
relicense systemd from GPL2+ to LGPL2.1+.
Some udev bits continue to be GPL2+ for now, but we are looking into
relicensing them too, to allow free copy/paste of all code within
systemd.
The bits that used to be MIT continue to be MIT.
The big benefit of the relicensing is that closed source code may now
link against libsystemd-login.so and friends.

Let's make things a bit easier to type, drop the systemd- prefix for
journalctl and loginctl, but provide the old names for compat.
All systemd binaries are hence now prefixed with "systemd-" with the
exception of the three primary user interface binaries:
systemctl
loginctl
journalctl
For those three we do provide systemd-xyz names as well, via symlinks:
systemd-systemctl → systemctl
systemd-loginctl → loginctl
systemd-journalctl → journalctl
We do this only for the *primary* user tools, in order to avoid
unnecessary namespace problems. That means tools like systemd-notify
stay the way they are.
