2014-02-14man: replace STDOUT with standard output, etc.Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
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.
2014-02-14man: fix grammatical errors and other formatting issuesJason St. John
* standardize capitalization of STDIN, STDOUT, and STDERR * reword some sentences for clarity * reflow some very long lines to be shorter than ~80 characters * add some missing <literal>, <constant>, <varname>, <option>, and <filename> tags
2014-01-04Revert "net-util: add support for Type=ethernet"Tom Gundersen
This reverts commit 4cd1214db6cf4b262e8ce6381bc710091b375c96. This may still be fixed in the kernel, revert this for now until we see how it all shakes out.
2014-01-03net-util: add support for Type=ethernetTom Gundersen
When DEVTYPE is not set for a nic, it means it is a wired/ethernet device.
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.
2013-11-25udev: net_setup_link - don't use Description as AliasTom Gundersen
Use Description only internally, and allow Alias to be set as a separate option. For instance SNMP uses ifalias for a specific purpose, so let's not write to it by default.
2013-11-11udev.xml: add missing </para> tagDave Reisner
2013-11-10udev.xml: minor fixes to network link configurationDave Reisner
- Refer to net_setup_link, not net-setup-link - Mention the required file extension earlier
2013-11-10man: udev - add documentation for .link filesTom Gundersen

2013-07-21man: wording and grammar updatesJan Engelhardt
This includes regularly-submitted corrections to comma setting and orthographical mishaps that appeared in man/ in recent commits.
2013-07-21man: udev - add section about hwdbKay Sievers
2013-07-16udev: export tags of "dead" device nodes to /run/udev/static_node-tags/Tom Gundersen
Based on a patch by Kay Sievers. A tag is exported at boot as a symlinks to the device node in the folder /run/udev/static_node-tags/<tagname>/, if the device node exists. These tags are cleaned up by udevadm info --cleanup-db, but are otherwise never removed.
2013-07-02man: improve grammar and word formatting in numerous man pagesJason St. John
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'.]
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
2013-06-22journal-verify: allow unlinked data entriesZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
Sometimes an entry is not successfully written, and we end up with data items which are "unlinked", not connected to, and not used by any entry. This will usually happen when we write to write a core dump, and the initial small data fields are written successfully, but the huge COREDUMP= field is not written. This situation is hard to avoid, but the results are mostly harmless. Thus only warn about unused data items. Also, be more verbose about why journal files failed verification. This should help diagnose journal failure modes without resorting to a hexadecimal editor. https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=65235 (esp. see system.journal attached to the bug report).
2013-03-18man: udev - clarify when RUN is executedTom Gundersen
Unlike IMPORT and PROGRAM, RUN is not executed inline, but after all the rules of the given event have been processed.
2013-03-18man: udev - move documentation of configuration fileTom Gundersen
Moved from udev(7) to systemd-udevd.service(8), where the rest of the documentation of the configuration of the daemon lives.
2013-03-18man: udev - document 'builtin'Tom Gundersen
The new IMPORT{builtin} and RUN{builtin} were not documented. Also make it clear that RUN= is really an alias for RUN{program}=.
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.
2013-01-26man: docbook consitency fixesZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
Use proper (or at least more proper) docbook tags for various fields. This should help with automatic parsing of the documentation.
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
2012-07-02udev: man - clarify escaping and replacing for SYMLINK+=Kay Sievers
2012-06-22man: refer to udevd by its service name not binary nameLennart Poettering
Since the binary name is now hidden away in /usr/lib/ the primary user handle for the udev service is the unit name, hence change the man page to be available under the unit name, and make the binary name an alias for it.
