Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek c882b71457 man: reorder autogenerated dbus api lists
3e5f04bf64 was trying to do the right thing, but
the resulting list does not match the autogenerated order (which is the same as
the order in vtable definition). I assume the addition was done manually. Fix
the order so that dbus-docs-fresh test is not unhappy.

<title>Introduction</title>
<para><interfacename>org.freedesktop.LogControl1</interfacename> is a generic interface that is intended
to be used by any daemon which allows the log level and target to be set over D-Bus. It is implemented by
various daemons that are part of the
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry> suite.</para>
<para>It is assumed that those settings are global for the whole program, so a fixed object path is
used. The interface should always be available under the path
<filename>/org/freedesktop/LogControl1</filename>.</para>
</refsect1>
<refsect1>
<title>Description</title>
<para>The following interface is exposed:</para>
<programlisting executable="systemd" node="/org/freedesktop/LogControl1" interface="org.freedesktop.LogControl1">
node /org/freedesktop/LogControl1 {
interface org.freedesktop.LogControl1 {
properties:
@org.freedesktop.DBus.Property.EmitsChangedSignal("false")
@org.freedesktop.systemd1.Privileged("true")
readwrite s LogLevel = '...';
@org.freedesktop.DBus.Property.EmitsChangedSignal("false")
@org.freedesktop.systemd1.Privileged("true")

<title>Properties</title>
<para><varname>LogLevel</varname> describes the
<citerefentry project="man-pages"><refentrytitle>syslog</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>-style
log-level, and should be one of <literal>emerg</literal>, <literal>alert</literal>,
<literal>crit</literal>, <literal>err</literal>, <literal>warning</literal>, <literal>notice</literal>,
<literal>info</literal>, <literal>debug</literal>, in order of increasing verbosity.</para>
<para><varname>LogTarget</varname> describes the log target (mechanism). It should be one of
<literal>console</literal> (log to the console or standard output),
<literal>kmsg</literal> (log to the kernel ring buffer),
<literal>journal</literal> (log to the journal natively, see
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-journald.service</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>),
<literal>syslog</literal> (log using the
<citerefentry project="man-pages"><refentrytitle>syslog</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry> call).
</para>
<para>Those two properties are writable, so they may be set by sufficiently privileged users.</para>
<para><varname>SyslogIdentifier</varname> is a read-only property that shows the "syslog identifier".
It is a short string that identifies the program that is the source of log messages that is passed to
the <citerefentry project="man-pages"><refentrytitle>syslog</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry> call.
</para>

<title>Tools</title>
<para><command>journalctl</command> option <option>-p</option>/<option>--priority=</option> may be used
to filter log messages by log level, option <option>-t</option>/<option>--identifier=</option> may be
used to by the syslog identifier, and filters like <literal>_TRANSPORT=syslog</literal>,
<literal>_TRANSPORT=journal</literal>, and <literal>_TRANSPORT=kernel</literal> may be used to filter
messages by the mechanism through which they reached <command>systemd-journald</command>.</para>
<para><command>systemctl log-level</command> and <command>systemctl log-target</command> verbs may be
used to query and set the <varname>LogLevel</varname> and <varname>LogTarget</varname> properties of the
service manager. <command>systemctl service-log-level</command> and <command>systemctl
service-log-target</command> may similarly be used for individual services. (Services must have the
<varname>BusName=</varname> property set and must implement the interface described here. See
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.service</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
for details about <varname>BusName=</varname>.)</para>
