0f943ae4ea man: add a new page with a general description of common syntax
We have a common parser, but for the user it might be
completely unobvious that the same general rules apply
to all those files. Let's add a page about the basic syntax
so that the more specific pages don't have to repeat those
details.

11a1589223 tree-wide: drop license boilerplate
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.

e0c46a7364 pid1: turn memory accounting on by default now
After discussions with @htejun it appears it's OK now to enable memory
accounting by default for all units without affecting system performance
too badly. facebook has made good experiences with deploying memory
accounting across their infrastructure.

This hence turns MemoryAccounting= from opt-in to opt-out, similar to
how TasksAccounting= is already handled. The other accounting options
remain off, their performance impact is too big still.

24dd31c19e core: add possibility to set action for ctrl-alt-del burst (#4105)
For some certification, it should not be possible to reboot the machine through ctrl-alt-delete. Currently we suggest our customers to mask the ctrl-alt-delete target, but that is obviously not enough.

Patching the keymaps to disable that is really not a way to go for them, because the settings need to be easily checked by some SCAP tools.

79baeeb96d core: change TasksMax= default for system services to 15%
As it turns out 512 is max number of tasks per service is hit by too many
applications, hence let's bump it a bit, and make it relative to the system's
maximum number of PIDs. With this change the new default is 15%. At the
kernel's default pids_max value of 32768 this translates to 4915. At machined's
default TasksMax= setting of 16384 this translates to 2457.

Why 15%? Because it sounds like a round number and is close enough to 4096
which I was going for, i.e. an eight-fold increase over the old 512

Summary:

            | on the host | in a container
old default |         512 |           512
new default |        4915 |          2457

f0367da7d1 core: rename StartLimitInterval= to StartLimitIntervalSec=
We generally follow the rule that for time settings we suffix the setting name
with "Sec" to indicate the default unit if none is specified. The only
exception was the rate limiting interval settings. Fix this, and keep the old
names for compatibility.

Do the same for journald's RateLimitInterval= setting

91518d20dd core: support <soft:hard> ranges for RLIMIT options
The new parser supports:

 <value>       - specify both limits to the same value
 <soft:hard>   - specify both limits

the size or time specific suffixes are supported, for example

  LimitRTTIME=1sec
  LimitAS=4G:16G

The patch introduces parse_rlimit_range() and rlim type (size, sec,
usec, etc.) specific parsers. No code is duplicated now.

The patch also sync docs for DefaultLimitXXX= and LimitXXX=.

412ea7a936 core: support IEC suffixes for RLIMIT stuff
Let's make things more user-friendly and support for example

  LimitAS=16G

rather than force users to always use LimitAS=16106127360.

The change is relevant for options:

  [Default]Limit{FSIZE,DATA,STACK,CORE,RSS,AS,MEMLOCK,MSGQUEUE}

The patch introduces config_parse_bytes_limit(), it's the same as
config_parse_limit() but uses parse_size() tu support the suffixes.

b9e74c3994 core: rework crash handling
This introduces a new systemd.crash_reboot=1 kernel command line option
that triggers a reboot after crashing.

This also cleans up crash VT handling. Specifically, it cleans up the
configuration setting, to be between 1..63 or a boolean. This is to
replace the previous logic where "-1" meant disabled. We continue to
accept that setting, but only document the boolean syntax instead.

This also brings the documentation of the default settings in sync with
what actually happens.

The CrashChVT= configuration file setting is renamed to CrashChangeVT=,
following our usual logic of not abbreviating unnecessarily. The old
setting stays support for compat reasons.

Fixes #1300

03a7b521e3 core: add support for the "pids" cgroup controller
This adds support for the new "pids" cgroup controller of 4.3 kernels.
It allows accounting the number of tasks in a cgroup and enforcing
limits on it.

This adds two new setting TasksAccounting= and TasksMax= to each unit,
as well as a gloabl option DefaultTasksAccounting=.

This also updated "cgtop" to optionally make use of the new
kernel-provided accounting.

systemctl has been updated to show the number of tasks for each service
if it is available.

This patch also adds correct support for undoing memory limits for units
using a MemoryLimit=infinity syntax. We do the same for TasksMax= now
and hence keep things in sync here.

12b42c7667 man: revert dynamic paths for split-usr setups
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.

681eb9cf2b man: generate configured paths in manpages
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.

e93549ef29 Do not advertise .d snippets over main config file
For daemons which have a main configuration file, there's
little reason for the administrator to use configuration snippets.
They are useful for packagers which need to override settings, but
we shouldn't advertise that as the main way of configuring those
services.

fa1b91632c core: remove system start timeout logic again
The system start timeout as previously implemented would get confused by
long-running services that are included in the initial system startup
transaction for example by being cron-job-like long-running services
triggered immediately at boot. Such long-running jobs would be subject
to the default 15min timeout, esily triggering it.

Hence, remove this again. In a subsequent commit, introduce per-target
job timeouts instead, that allow us to control these timeouts more
finegrained.

2928b0a863 core: add support for a configurable system-wide start-up timeout
When this system-wide start-up timeout is hit we execute one of the
failure actions already implemented for services that fail.

This should not only be useful on embedded devices, but also on laptops
which have the power-button reachable when the lid is closed. This
devices, when in a backpack might get powered on by accident due to the
easily reachable power button. We want to make sure that the system
turns itself off if it starts up due this after a while.

When the system manages to fully start-up logind will suspend the
machine by default if the lid is closed. However, in some cases we don't
even get as far as logind, and the boot hangs much earlier, for example
because we ask for a LUKS password that nobody ever enters.

Yeah, this is a real-life problem on my Yoga 13, which has one of those
easily accessible power buttons, even if the device is closed.

5aded36978 man: add a mapping for external manpages
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?
