man rules were repeating the same information in too many places, which was error prone. Those rules can be easily generated from .xml files. For efficiency and because python is not a required dependency, Makefile-man.am is only regenerated when requested with make update-man-list If no metadata in man/*.xml changed, this file should not change. So only when a new man page or a new alias is added, this file should show up in 'git diff'. The change should then be committed. If the support for building from git without python was dropped, we could drop Makefile-man.am from version control. This would also increase the partial build time (since more stuff would be rebuild whenever sources in man/*.xml would be modified), so it would probably wouldn't be worth it.

<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>Systemd-bootchart is an boot time analysis tool. It represents
|
|
various aspects of the system as graph elements. These graph
|
|
elements allow the user to determine resource usage, efficiency
|
|
and performance issues.</para>

<title>Invocation</title>

<title>Kernel invocation</title>
|
|
<listitem><para>The kernel can invoke systemd-bootchart
|

instead of the init process. In itself, systemd-bootchart

will invoke <filename>/sbin/init</filename> if invoked in

this matter.</para></listitem>

<title>Started as a standalone program</title>
|

<listitem><para>One can execute systemd-bootchart as
|
|
normal application from the commandline. In this mode
|
|
it is highly recommended to pass the "-r" flag in order
|
|
to not graph the time elapsed since boot and before
|
|
systemd-bootchart was started, as it may result in
|
|
extremely large graphs.

<title>Output</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>Systemd-bootchart generates SVG graphs. In order to render these
|
|
on a graphical display any SVG capable viewer can be used. It should be
|
|
noted that the SVG render engines in most browsers (including Chrome
|
|
and Firefox) are many times faster than dedicated graphical applications
|
|
like Gimp and Inkscape. Just point your browser at "file:///var/log"!
