This specifes two new optional fields for /etc/os-release:
IMAGE_VERSION= and IMAGE_ID= that are supposed to identify the image of
the current booted system by name and version.
This is inspired by the versioning stuff in
https://github.com/systemd/mkosi/pull/683.
In environments where pre-built images are installed and updated as a
whole the existing os-release version/distro identifier are not
sufficient to describe the system's version, as they describe only the
distro an image is built from, but not the image itself, even if that
image is deployed many times on many systems, and even if that image
contains more resources than just the RPMs/DEBs.
In particular, "mkosi" is a tool for building disk images based on
distro RPMs with additional resources dropped in. The combination of all
of these together with their versions should also carry an identifier
and version, and that's what IMAGE_VERSION= and IMAGE_ID= is supposed to
be.
This adjust the documentation to match the code, addressing #17740.
I actually think that not making the "argument" field accept quotes was
a mistake, but I also understand why this choice was made. Given that we
shipped this forever like this though I don't think it's worth changing
the behaviour now. Supporting quotes for this is not that important I
guess. Hence document the current behaviour.
Fixes: #17740
I was looking for the explanation for the exclamation mark in the text,
and couldn't find it, searching for "!". Let's make this easier, and
indicate the character meant.
As described in #15603, it is a fairly common setup to use a fqdn as the
configured hostname. But it is often convenient to use just the actual
hostname, i.e. until the first dot. This adds support in tmpfiles, sysusers,
and unit files for %l which expands to that.
Fixes#15603.
The hack with getparent().txt is not very pretty, but the whole
thing seems to work well enough. It is useful to figure out whihc
specifiers are supported where.
We probably can migrate even more, but for now let's just migrate those
which have the 1:1 identical text everywhere.
(Also, let's add the % entry to all specifier tables)
When wrong element types are used, directives are sometimes placed in the wrong
section. Also, strip part of text starting with "'", which is used in a few
places and which is displayed improperly in the index.
The synopsis section would describe config file paths, but not their
syntax. Let's add a short table that so that it's possible to quickly
remind oneself what the different letter mean.
The "include" files had type "book" for some raeason. I don't think this
is meaningful. Let's just use the same everywhere.
$ perl -i -0pe 's^..DOCTYPE (book|refentry) PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.[25]//EN"\s+"http^<!DOCTYPE refentry PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.5//EN"\n "http^gms' man/*.xml
We would describe tmpfiles.d through what systemd-tmpfiles does with them, but
I think it's better to start with a geneneral statement what they are. Also,
let's make the description of volatile file systems less prominent.
Also, strenghten the advice to use RuntimeDirectory and mention
{Cache,Logs,Configuration,State}Directory=.
I think it is OK if some option is described as "similar to ..., but in
addition ...", as long as the "in addition" part is strictly additive this is
unambiguous. Otherwise, we'd have to repeat a lot of text, and then we'd
probably forget to adjust some of the descriptions when doing changes.
But when the "in addition" part is about replacing or removing parts of
functionality, it is better to avoid this pattern and describe the later option
from scratch.
Some paragraph breaks are added and minor changes made. UID/GID is changed to
user/group, since we generally expect user/group names to be used, not numeric
ids.
Fixes#11115.
It's obsolete, stop mentioning it. Let's not confuse people suggests it
would be OK to use that, because it really isn't anymore, and it gives
us trouble with merging idenctical lines.
This is an implementation that covers making errors encountered when writing
file content optionally fatal. If this is something that folks would want I'll
add handling of this for all the other directives. I'd appreciate suggestions
on how this might better be structured as well (use of a goto fail or such) as
I'm not super happy with the approach.
The qgroup logic (types 'q' and 'Q') only has an effect if there's no previous
setup at all, and any explicitly configured subvolumes with their qgroups are
left entirely unmodified.
The idea is that if users want a different logic than the one we set up by
default, then by all means they should do that before hand, and tmpfiles won't
override their logic.
One mention of --user was missing the surrounding <option> tag, making
the table look inconsistent (though the inconsistency is less obvious
after the reordering in 709f4c472c, since the four specifiers mentioning
the --user option are no longer immediately adjacent).
Docbook styles required those to be present, even though the templates that we
use did not show those names anywhere. But something changed semi-recently (I
would suspect docbook templates, but there was only a minor version bump in
recent years, and the changelog does not suggest anything related), and builds
now work without those entries. Let's drop this dead weight.
Tested with F26-F29, debian unstable.
$ perl -i -0pe 's/\s*<authorgroup>.*<.authorgroup>//gms' man/*xml
This part of the copyright blurb stems from the GPL use recommendations:
https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.en.html
The concept appears to originate in times where version control was per
file, instead of per tree, and was a way to glue the files together.
Ultimately, we nowadays don't live in that world anymore, and this
information is entirely useless anyway, as people are very welcome to
copy these files into any projects they like, and they shouldn't have to
change bits that are part of our copyright header for that.
hence, let's just get rid of this old cruft, and shorten our codebase a
bit.
