man: adjust nspawn man page to follow same section/order as --help text
No other changes, just some reshuffling and adding of section headers (well, admittedly, I changed some "see above" and "see below" in the text to match the new order.)

|
mounted into it in read-only mode (the system thus starts up with read-only OS image, but pristine state and

writable <literal>tmpfs</literal> instance into it (the system thus starts up with read-only OS resources and

configuration, but pristine state, and any changes to the latter are lost on shutdown). When the mode parameter

is specified as <option>overlay</option> the read-only root file system is combined with a writable

<para>Note that if one of the volatile modes is chosen, its effect is limited to the root file system (or

<filename>/var/</filename> in case of <option>state</option>), and any other mounts placed in the hierarchy are
|
||||||

unaffected — regardless if they are established automatically (e.g. the EFI system partition that might be

|
mounted to <filename>/efi/</filename> or <filename>/boot/</filename>) or explicitly (e.g. through an additional
|
||||||
|
command line option such as <option>--bind=</option>, see below). This means, even if
|
||||||
|
<option>--volatile=overlay</option> is used changes to <filename>/efi/</filename> or
|
||||||
|
<filename>/boot/</filename> are prohibited in case such a partition exists in the container image operated on,
|
||||||
|
and even if <option>--volatile=state</option> is used the hypothetical file <filename>/etc/foobar</filename> is
|
||||||
|
potentially writable if <option>--bind=/etc/foobar</option> if used to mount it from outside the read-only
|
||||||
|
container <filename>/etc</filename> directory.</para>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<para>The <option>--ephemeral</option> option is closely related to this setting, and provides similar

behaviour by making a temporary, ephemeral copy of the whole OS image and executing that. For further details,

see above.</para>
|

|
|

|
<para>The <option>--tmpfs=</option> and <option>--overlay=</option> options provide similar functionality, but

for specific sub-directories of the OS image only. For details, see below.</para>

|
|

<para>This option provides similar functionality for containers as the <literal>systemd.volatile=</literal>

<literal>--volatile=yes</literal>. The <option>overlay</option> option does not require any particular

preparations in the OS, but do note that <literal>overlayfs</literal> behaviour differs from regular file

systems in a number of ways, and hence compatibility is limited.</para></listitem>

<para>The <option>--ephemeral</option> option is closely related to this setting, and provides similar

behaviour by making a temporary, ephemeral copy of the whole OS image and executing that. For further details,

see above.</para>

<para>The <option>--tmpfs=</option> and <option>--overlay=</option> options provide similar functionality, but

for specific sub-directories of the OS image only. For details, see above.</para>

<para>This option provides similar functionality for containers as the <literal>systemd.volatile=</literal>

details.</para>
|
|

|
|

<para>Note that setting this option to <option>yes</option> or <option>state</option> will only work correctly
|
|
||||||
with operating systems in the container that can boot up with only <filename>/usr</filename> mounted, and are
|
|
||||||
able to automatically populate <filename>/var</filename>, and also <filename>/etc</filename> in case of
|
|
||||||
<literal>--volatile=yes</literal>. The <option>overlay</option> option does not require any particular
|
|
||||||
preparations in the OS, but do note that <literal>overlayfs</literal> behaviour differs from regular file
|
|
||||||
systems in a number of ways, and hence compatibility is limited.</para></listitem>
