* man: use same header for all filesZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2019-03-141-1/+1
| | | | | | | The "include" files had type "book" for some raeason. I don't think this is meaningful. Let's just use the same everywhere. $ perl -i -0pe 's^..DOCTYPE (book|refentry) PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.[25]//EN"\s+"http^<!DOCTYPE refentry PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.5//EN"\n "http^gms' man/*.xml
* man: standarize on one-line license headerZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2019-03-141-4/+1
| | | | | | No need to waste space, and uniformity is good. $ perl -i -0pe 's|\n+<!--\s*SPDX-License-Identifier: LGPL-2.1..\s*-->|\n<!-- SPDX-License-Identifier: LGPL-2.1+ -->|gms' man/*.xml
* man,factory: update factory config for nsswitch.conf to match the man pagesZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2018-11-271-0/+1
| | | | | Also add a note in the man pages to remind people to adjust the factory config and other man pages at the same time.
* meson: allow building resolved and machined without nss modulesYu Watanabe2018-07-231-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | This adds -Dnss-resolve= and -Dnss-mymachines= meson options. By using this option, e.g., resolved can be built without nss-resolve. When no nss modules are built, then test-nss is neither built. Also, This changes the option name -Dmyhostname= to -Dnss-myhostname= for consistency to other nss related options. Closes #9596.
* tree-wide: drop copyright headers from frequent contributorsZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2018-06-201-2/+0

* man: drop unused <authorgroup> tags from man sourcesZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2018-06-141-9/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | Docbook styles required those to be present, even though the templates that we use did not show those names anywhere. But something changed semi-recently (I would suspect docbook templates, but there was only a minor version bump in recent years, and the changelog does not suggest anything related), and builds now work without those entries. Let's drop this dead weight. Tested with F26-F29, debian unstable. $ perl -i -0pe 's/\s*<authorgroup>.*<.authorgroup>//gms' man/*xml
* tree-wide: beautify remaining copyright statementsLennart Poettering2018-06-141-1/+1
| | | | | | Let's unify an beautify our remaining copyright statements, with a unicode ©. This means our copyright statements are now always formatted the same way. Yay.
* tree-wide: remove Lennart's copyright linesLennart Poettering2018-06-141-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | These lines are generally out-of-date, incomplete and unnecessary. With SPDX and git repository much more accurate and fine grained information about licensing and authorship is available, hence let's drop the per-file copyright notice. Of course, removing copyright lines of others is problematic, hence this commit only removes my own lines and leaves all others untouched. It might be nicer if sooner or later those could go away too, making git the only and accurate source of authorship information.
* tree-wide: drop 'This file is part of systemd' blurbLennart Poettering2018-06-141-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This part of the copyright blurb stems from the GPL use recommendations: https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.en.html The concept appears to originate in times where version control was per file, instead of per tree, and was a way to glue the files together. Ultimately, we nowadays don't live in that world anymore, and this information is entirely useless anyway, as people are very welcome to copy these files into any projects they like, and they shouldn't have to change bits that are part of our copyright header for that. hence, let's just get rid of this old cruft, and shorten our codebase a bit.
* tree-wide: drop license boilerplateZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2018-04-061-13/+0
| | | | | | | | | | Files which are installed as-is (any .service and other unit files, .conf files, .policy files, etc), are left as is. My assumption is that SPDX identifiers are not yet that well known, so it's better to retain the extended header to avoid any doubt. I also kept any copyright lines. We can probably remove them, but it'd nice to obtain explicit acks from all involved authors before doing that.

* man: update changes about gateway -> _gateway (#7085)Christian Hesse2017-10-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | Commit 5248e7e1f11aba6859de0b28f0dd3778b22842f2 (resolved,nss-myhostname: use _gateway for the gateway) changed how the gateway is resolved. Reflect the change in documentation. Close #7084.
* build-sys: s/HAVE_MYHOSTNAME/ENABLE_MYHOSTNAME/Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2017-10-041-1/+1
| | | | | Same justification as for HAVE_UTMP. HAVE_MYHOSTNAME was used before mysthostname was merged into systemd.
* man: sync up the suggested nsswitch.conf configuration for our four NSS modulesLennart Poettering2016-10-241-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This unifies the suggested nsswitch.conf configuration for our four NSS modules to this: hosts: files mymachines resolve [!UNAVAIL=return] dns myhostname Note that this restores "myhostname" to the suggested configuration of nss-resolve for the time being, undoing 4484e1792b64b01614f04b7bde97bf019f601bf9. "myhostname" should probably be dropped eventually, but when we do this we should do it in full, and not only drop it from the suggested nsswitch.conf for one of the modules, but also drop it in source and stop referring to it altogether. Note that nss-resolve doesn't replace nss-myhostname in full: the former only works if D-Bus/resolved is available for resolving the local hostname, the latter works in all cases even if D-Bus or resolved are not in operation, hence there's some value in keeping the line as it is right now. Note that neither dns nor myhostname are considered at all with the above configuration unless the resolve module actually returns UNAVAIL. Thus, even though handling of local hostname resolving is implemented twice this way it is only executed once for each lookup.
* nss: add new "nss-systemd" NSS module for mapping dynamic usersLennart Poettering2016-07-221-2/+3
| | | | | With this NSS module all dynamic service users will be resolvable via NSS like any real user.
* Merge pull request #2959 from keszybz/stop-resolving-localdomainZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2016-04-051-3/+4
|\ | | | | *.localdomain != localhost
| * *.localdomain != localhostDavid R. Hedges2016-04-041-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ".localdomain" is not a reserved suffix (or prefix). I'm not aware of any product expecting *.localdomain to resolve to localhost, however I am aware of at least one product that defaults to ".localdomain" as its DNS suffix provided via DHCP (pfSense). This leads to unexpected results when attempting to access a host that's offline (or a host that's online, when nsswitch.conf is [mis-]configured to have myhostname ahead of DNS). Operate on: localhost (and localhost.) *.localhost (and *.localhost.) localhost.localdomain (and localhost.localdomain.) *.localhost.localdomain (and *.localhost.localdomain.) We should not cover: *.localdomain (nor *.localdomain.) localdomain (nor localdomain.)
* | man: change recommended order of NSS modules in /etc/nsswitch.confLennart Poettering2016-02-231-19/+13
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | So far we recommended placing "nss-mymachines" after "nss-resolve" in the order of preference in /etc/nsswitch.conf. This change reverse this order. Rationale: single-label names are resolved via LLMNR by resolved, which has to time out if no peer by that name exists. By placing "nss-mymachines" first (which always responds immediately) we avoid running into this timeout for most containers. Both modules should return the same data if LLMNR is used by the container anyway. While we are at it, improve the man pages of the three NSS modules in other ways a bit.

* man: always use the same example in nss module documentationLennart Poettering2015-09-041-2/+2
| | | | | | | | Show the same recommended example file in all three man pages, just highlight the different, relevant parts. This should be less confusing for users, and clarify what we actually recommend how /etc/nsswitch.conf is set up.

* man: revert dynamic paths for split-usr setupsTom Gundersen2015-06-181-4/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.
* man: generate configured paths in manpagesFilipe Brandenburger2015-05-281-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* man: add a mapping for external manpagesZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2014-07-081-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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?

* build-sys: create Makefile-man.am automaticallyZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2013-02-071-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.
