    <title>Description</title>

    <para>The <filename>/etc/os-release</filename> and
    <filename>/usr/lib/os-release</filename> files contain operating
    system identification data.</para>

    <para>The basic file format of <filename>os-release</filename> is a newline-separated list of
    environment-like shell-compatible variable assignments. It is possible to source the configuration from
    Bourne shell scripts, however, beyond mere variable assignments, no shell features are supported (this
    means variable expansion is explicitly not supported), allowing applications to read the file without
    implementing a shell compatible execution engine. Variable assignment values must be enclosed in double
    or single quotes if they include spaces, semicolons or other special characters outside of A–Z, a–z,
    0–9. (Assignments that do not include these special characters may be enclosed in quotes too, but this is
    optional.) Shell special characters ("$", quotes, backslash, backtick) must be escaped with backslashes,
    following shell style. All strings should be in UTF-8 encoding, and non-printable characters should not
    be used. It is not supported to concatenate multiple individually quoted strings. Lines beginning with
    "#" shall be ignored as comments. Blank lines are permitted and ignored.</para>

    <para>The file <filename>/etc/os-release</filename> takes
    precedence over <filename>/usr/lib/os-release</filename>.
    Applications should check for the former, and exclusively use its
    data if it exists, and only fall back to
    <filename>/usr/lib/os-release</filename> if it is missing.
    Applications should not read data from both files at the same
    time. <filename>/usr/lib/os-release</filename> is the recommended
    place to store OS release information as part of vendor trees.
    <filename>/etc/os-release</filename> should be a relative symlink
    to <filename>/usr/lib/os-release</filename>, to provide
    compatibility with applications only looking at
    <filename>/etc/</filename>. A relative symlink instead of an
    absolute symlink is necessary to avoid breaking the link in a
    chroot or initrd environment such as dracut.</para>

    <para><filename>os-release</filename> contains data that is
    defined by the operating system vendor and should generally not be
    changed by the administrator.</para>

    <para>As this file only encodes names and identifiers it should
    not be localized.</para>

    <para>The <filename>/etc/os-release</filename> and
    <filename>/usr/lib/os-release</filename> files might be symlinks
    to other files, but it is important that the file is available
    from earliest boot on, and hence must be located on the root file
    system.</para>

    <para>For a longer rationale for <filename>os-release</filename>
    please refer to the <ulink
    url="http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/os-release">Announcement of <filename>/etc/os-release</filename></ulink>.</para>

      <title><filename>/etc/initrd-release</filename></title>

      <para>In the <ulink
      url="https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/admin-guide/initrd.html">initrd</ulink>,
      <filename>/etc/initrd-release</filename> plays the same role as <filename>os-release</filename> in the
      main system. Additionally, the presence of that file means that the system is in the initrd phase.
      <filename>/etc/os-release</filename> should be symlinked to <filename>/etc/initrd-release</filename>
      (or vice versa), so programs that only look for <filename>/etc/os-release</filename> (as described
      above) work correctly.</para>

      <para>The rest of this document that talks about <filename>os-release</filename> should be understood
      to apply to <filename>initrd-release</filename> too.</para>

      <title><filename>/usr/lib/extension-release.d/extension-release.<replaceable>IMAGE</replaceable></filename></title>

      <para><filename>/usr/lib/extension-release.d/extension-release.<replaceable>IMAGE</replaceable></filename>
      plays the same role for extension images as <filename>os-release</filename> for the main system, and
      follows the syntax and rules as described in the <ulink
      url="https://systemd.io/PORTABLE_SERVICES">Portable Services Documentation</ulink>. The purpose of this
      file is to identify the extension and to allow the operating system to verify that the extension image
      matches the base OS. This is typically implemented by checking that the <varname>ID=</varname> options
      match, and either <varname>SYSEXT_LEVEL=</varname> exists and matches too, or if it is not present,
      <varname>VERSION_ID=</varname> exists and matches. This ensures ABI/API compatibility between the
      layers and prevents merging of an incompatible image in an overlay.</para>

      <para>In the <filename>extension-release.<replaceable>IMAGE</replaceable></filename> filename, the
      <replaceable>IMAGE</replaceable> part must exactly match the file name of the containing image with the
      suffix removed. In case it is not possible to guarantee that an image file name is stable and doesn't
      change between the build and the deployment phases, it is possible to relax this check: if exactly one
      file whose name matches <literal><filename>extension-release.*</filename></literal> is present in this
      directory, and the file is tagged with a <varname>user.extension-release.strict</varname>
      <citerefentry><refentrytitle>xattr</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry> set to the
      string <literal>0</literal>, it will be used instead.</para>

      <para>The rest of this document that talks about <filename>os-release</filename> should be understood
      to apply to <filename>extension-release</filename> too.</para>

          example listing one or more OS identifiers the local OS is a derivative from.  An OS should
          generally only list other OS identifiers it itself is a derivative of, and not any OSes that are

      <varname>BUILD_ID</varname> may be used instead or in addition to <varname>VERSION_ID</varname> when
      the original system image version is important.</para>

      <title>Notes</title>

      <para>If you are using this file to determine the OS or a specific version of it, use the
      <varname>ID</varname> and <varname>VERSION_ID</varname> fields, possibly with
      <varname>ID_LIKE</varname> as fallback for <varname>ID</varname>. When looking for an OS identification
      string for presentation to the user use the <varname>PRETTY_NAME</varname> field.</para>

      <para>Note that operating system vendors may choose not to provide version information, for example to
      accommodate for rolling releases. In this case, <varname>VERSION</varname> and
      <varname>VERSION_ID</varname> may be unset. Applications should not rely on these fields to be
      set.</para>

      <para>Operating system vendors may extend the file format and introduce new fields. It is highly
      recommended to prefix new fields with an OS specific name in order to avoid name clashes. Applications
      reading this file must ignore unknown fields.</para>

      <para>Example: <literal>DEBIAN_BTS="debbugs://bugs.debian.org/"</literal>.</para>

      <para>Container and sandbox runtime managers may make the host's identification data available to
      applications by providing the host's <filename>/etc/os-release</filename> (if available, otherwise
      <filename>/usr/lib/os-release</filename> as a fallback) as
      <filename>/run/host/os-release</filename>.</para>
