* man: use <simplelist> for 'See also' sectionsDavid Tardon2023-12-231-10/+10
| | | | | This is just a slight markup improvement; there should be no difference in rendering.
* man: update version informationAbderrahim Kitouni2023-09-191-7/+21
| | | | | | | | As I noticed a lot of missing information when trying to implement checking for missing info. I reimplemented the version information script to be more robust, and here is the result. Follow up to ec07c3c80b2b1bfa6788500202006ff85f5ae4f4
* man: add version infoAbderrahim Kitouni2023-08-291-10/+30
| | | | | | | | This tries to add information about when each option was added. It goes back to version 183. The version info is included from a separate file to allow generating it, which would allow more control on the formatting of the final output.
* man: fix a reference in timedatectl man pageAnssi Hannula2021-09-241-2/+3
| | | | | | | | timedatectl(1) says the synchronization service list generation is described "below", but in reality it is documented in systemd-timedated.service(8). Fix the sentence to reference the correct man page.
* man: rename less-variables→common-variablesZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2021-03-011-1/+1
| | | | Some are not about less, e.g. $SYSTEMD_URLIFY.

* Move the Commands section above Options sectionZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2019-10-081-70/+70
| | | | | | | For executables which take a verb, we should list the verbs first, and then options which modify those verbs second. The general layout of the man page is from general description to specific details, usually Overview, Commands, Options, Return Value, Examples, References.
* timedated: add back support for ntp-units.d/Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2019-07-221-16/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We removed support for foreign services (and ntp-units.d/) in b72ddf0f4. Support for foreign services was added back in 5d280742, but through an environment variable. The problem with the env var approach is that it only works as a mechanism to select one item, and doesn't work nicely as a mechinism to create a list of items through drop-ins (because the env var can be easily overridden, but not extended). Having a list of "ntp providers" is important to be able to reliably disable all of them when that is requested. Another problem is that nobody ever bothered to care about our new "standard". ntp-units.d/ is a nice simple format that works and is already supported by chrony and ntpd and timedatex. If we were to introduce and ask people to follow a new standard, there should be some good reason for this. The idea with env vars has lower functionality, requires systemd-specific syntax. We should just re-adopt the format that we originally introduced and that seems to work for everyone, and more on to more interesting problems.

* 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: 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.
* timedatectl: add 'show' command to display machine-readable outputYu Watanabe2018-06-141-10/+20
| | | | Closes #9249.

* 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.

* timedatectl: be more explicit what "ntp synchronized" meansZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2017-09-211-14/+11
| | | | | | | The documentation explained that the message doesn't really mean what it says, but I think it's better to just make the message more straightforward. Fixes #6554.
* man: use unicode ellipsis in more placesZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2016-12-111-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* man: extend documentation for timedatectl's set-ntp commandLennart Poettering2015-08-161-6/+21
| | | | | | | | This extends on the relationship between timedatectl's set-ntp command and its effect on the systemd-timesyncd.service unit. This also links that unit back to the timedatectl man page. Closes #798.
* man: revert dynamic paths for split-usr setupsTom Gundersen2015-06-181-6/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 Brandenburger2015-05-281-3/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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: avoid confusion regarding "time synchronization state"Lennart Poettering2015-04-081-9/+9
| | | | | Also, update example in the timedatectl man page to match the actual timedatectl output.
* timedatectl: avoid specifically referring to NTPLennart Poettering2015-04-071-7/+12
| | | | | | | | systemd-timesyncd not only does NTP, but also manages clock monotonicity using a flags file. In future, it might learn PTP support. Hence don't expose its enablement state as "NTP" but use the more generic term "network time synchronization". After all, for similar reasons systemd-timesyncd is not called systemd-ntpd.
* man: update timedatectl(1)'s examplesLennart Poettering2015-04-071-22/+19
| | | | | The output didn't match what we output these days. Also, "set-ntp" cannot be used to control chronyd anymore.

* man: add a mapping for external manpagesZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2014-07-081-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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?
