* man: mention pages with more settings at end of each option listZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2021-09-271-3/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | For some unit types we have hundreds of options, and the reader may easily miss that more options are described in other pages. We already mentioned this in the introduction and then at the top of the option list, but it can't hurt to repeat the information. Also, add an (almost empty) Options section for the unit types which don't have any custom options. It is nicer to have the same page structure in all cases, so people can jump between pages for different types more easily.

| | | | | Explain why this is useful, but don't describe the implementation exactly, since we're likely to want to change details in the future.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | FixedRandomDelay=yes will use `siphash24(sd_id128_get_machine() || MANAGER_IS_SYSTEM(m) || getuid() || u->id)`, where || is concatenation, instead of a random number to choose a value between 0 and RandomizedDelaySec= as the timer delay. This essentially sets up a fixed, but seemingly random, offset for each timer iteration rather than having a random offset recalculated each time it fires. Closes #10355 Co-author: Anita Zhang <the.anitazha@gmail.com>

* man: document the random delay of persistent timersNazar Vinnichuk2020-09-111-3/+4
| | | | | | | The manual states that a persistent timer triggers it's service immediately on activation to catch up with missed invocations, but since PR #11608 it is no longer the case if RandomizedDelaySec= is set to a non-zero value.
* tree-wide: drop quotes from around [section]Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2020-07-061-3/+3
| | | | | | | For users, the square brackets already serve as markup and clearly delineate the section name from surrounding text. Putting additional markup around that only adds clutter. Also, we were very inconsistent in using the quotes. Let's just drop them altogether.

* 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: Fix implicit dep info for timer units (#10679)Matthew Leeds2018-11-081-12/+6
| | | | | | This reorganizes the systemd.timer man page so that it doesn't claim there are no implicit dependencies right after specifying the implicit dependencies, and so that it matches the other man pages for units. This fixes a mistake introduced by commit aed5cb03db.

* 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: remove Lennart's copyright linesLennart Poettering2018-06-141-2/+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 spurious newlines (#8764)Lennart Poettering2018-04-191-1/+0
| | | | | | | | Double newlines (i.e. one empty lines) are great to structure code. But let's avoid triple newlines (i.e. two empty lines), quadruple newlines, quintuple newlines, …, that's just spurious whitespace. It's an easy way to drop 121 lines of code, and keeps the coding style of our sources a bit tigther.
* man: merge two sections into two subsections of one sectionZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2018-04-181-15/+25
| | | | Those are very close subjects that are a good fit for one section.
* 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.

* core: rename Random* to RandomizedDelay*Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2015-11-261-4/+4
| | | | | | | The name RandomSec is too generic: "Sec" just specifies the default unit type, and "Random" by itself is not enough. Rename to something that should give the user general idea what the setting does without looking at documentation.
* core: add new RandomSec= setting for time unitsLennart Poettering2015-11-181-6/+37
| | | | | This allows configuration of a random time on top of the elapse events, in order to spread time events in a network evenly across a range.
* man: improve and fix documentation for RemainAfterElapse=Lennart Poettering2015-11-181-3/+12
|
* core: add RemainAfterElapse= setting to timer unitsLennart Poettering2015-11-171-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | Previously, after a timer unit elapsed we'd leave it around for good, which has the nice benefit that starting a timer that shall trigger at a specific point in time multiple times will only result in one trigger instead of possibly many. With this change a new option RemainAfterElapse= is added. It defaults to "true", to mimic the old behaviour. If set to "false" timer units will be unloaded after they elapsed. This is specifically useful for transient timer units.
* man: document automatic dependenciesLennart Poettering2015-11-111-11/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | For all units ensure there's an "Automatic Dependencies" section in the man page, and explain which dependencies are automatically added in all cases, and which ones are added on top if DefaultDependencies=yes is set. This is also done for systemd.exec(5), systemd.resource-control(5) and systemd.unit(5) as these pages describe common behaviour of various unit types.

* 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.
