2013-04-17systemctl: clarify usage of "--all" versus list-unit-filesHarald Hoyer
Novice users might think, that $ systemctl --all is equal to $ systemctl list-unit-files https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=748512

2013-04-12systemctl: new verb 'list-sockets'Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
LISTEN UNIT ACTIVATES /dev/initctl systemd-initctl.socket systemd-initctl.service /dev/log systemd-journald.socket systemd-journald.service ... [::]:19531 systemd-journal-gatewayd.socket systemd-journal-gatewayd.service kobject-uevent 1 systemd-udevd-kernel.socket systemd-udevd.service 17 sockets listed. Pass --all to see loaded but inactive sockets, too.
2013-04-11systemctl: allow multiple arguments to --typeZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
This mirrors --property, and is generally useful. New functionality is used in bash completion. In case of zsh completion, new functionality is less useful because of caching. Nevertheless, zsh completion for restart is made to behave more-or-less the same as bash completion. At least sockets can be restarted.

2013-02-22systemctl: make shutdown operations use irreversible jobsMichal Schmidt
Occasionally people report problem with reboot/poweroff operations hanging in the middle. One known cause is when a new transaction to start a unit is enqueued while the shutdown is going on. The start of the unit conflicts with the shutdown jobs, so they get cancelled. The failure case can be quite unpleasant, becase getty and sshd may already be stopped. Fix it by using irreversible jobs for shutdown (reboot/poweroff/...) actions. This applies to commands like "reboot", "telinit 6", "systemctl reboot". Should someone desire to use reversible jobs, they can say "systemctl start reboot.target".`
2013-02-22core, systemctl: add support for irreversible jobsMichal Schmidt
Add a new job mode: replace-irreversibly. Jobs enqueued using this mode cannot be implicitly canceled by later enqueued conflicting jobs. They can however still be canceled with an explicit "systemctl cancel" call.
2013-02-22systemctl: make "systemctl default" use "isolate" job modeMichal Schmidt
"systemctl default" should behave identically to "telinit N" (where N is the corresponding runlevel target number), therefore it should use isolate job mode too.
2013-02-16systemctl: allow comma sepearted property listsZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
2013-02-16man: prettify systemctl(1)Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
- reindent with two spaces, otherwise everything is squeezed near the right margin, - mark only optional arguments as optional, - some typos, etc.
2013-02-16systemctl: allow status with no unitsZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
This makes 'status' behave like 'list-units': systemctl status -> status of all units systemctl -t error status -> status of error units systemctl -t mount status -> etc.
2013-02-13Move systemctl dot to systemd-analyze dotSimon Peeters
2013-02-13man: Make options consistentWilliam Giokas
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.
2013-01-26man: extend systemd.directives(7) to all manual pagesZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
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.
2013-01-18systemctl: make list-dependencies default to default.targetLennart Poettering
2013-01-17systemctl add command list-dependenciesLukas Nykryn
systemctl list-dependencies lists all unit's dependecies and recursively expands all subsidiary target units into a tree. Primary purpose for this command is to show all units which are enabled in specified target.
2013-01-16systemctl,loginctl,cgls: do not ellipsize cgroup members when --full is ↵Lukas Nykryn
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. ]
2013-01-11systemctl: honour inhibitors when shutting down or entering sleep stateLennart Poettering
2013-01-04systemctl: add is-failedThomas Hindoe Paaboel Andersen
Adds is-failed to join is-active and is-enabled. I grabbed this one from the todo list. Most of the functionality was already there for is-active. I just needed to make check_one_unit take the states to check for as an argument instead of the hardcoded "active" and "reloading". is-failed will return 1 if none of the units given are failed. This is different from is-active which will return 3 if none of the units given are active. It returns 3 with this comment: /* According to LSB: "program is not running" */ As that does not make sense when looking for failed units I simply chose 1 instead.
2012-11-15systemctl: add help for --type/-tZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
The list of types and load states if lengthy, so a little reminder can be sometimes useful.

2012-10-26man: typo fixesThomas Hindoe Paaboel Andersen
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55890 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 8bd3b8620c80d0f2383f2fb04315411fc8077ca1
2012-10-19systemctl: remove --follow optionLennart Poettering
Given that "journalctl -u" exists now there's no need to duplicate this functionality in systemctl, so let's drop this, especially given that it always felt a bit awkward to overload "-f" to both --force and --follow, and to have continues output with a status header for this. systemctl status -f avahi-daemon now becomes: journalctl -fu avahi-daemon Which is shorter and a lot less redundant.

2012-07-10systemctl: filter shown units by their load stateZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
E.g. systemctl --all -t masked gives the list of masked units. The -t/--type option is reused. This is possible because unit types and unit load states are called differently, so it is possible to distinguish what the user meant. Using the same option also means that the interface is user for the user: less options to remember.

'overwrite' conveys the idea of the old text being destroyed. 'override' does not. It is more similar to 'overrule'.

2012-04-12relicense to LGPLv2.1 (with exceptions)Lennart Poettering
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.

2012-03-26journalctl,loginctl: drop systemd- prefix in binary namesLennart Poettering
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.

2011-09-27systemctl: print the legend regardless of stdout type, add --no-legendMichal Schmidt
Print the legend (the column headers and the footer with hints) by default even to non-tty output. People seem to get confused by the difference when they redirect the output. Add a parameter to suppress the printing of the legend. Related-to: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=713567
