Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 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?

<title>Description</title>
<para><filename>sd-id128.h</filename> provides APIs to
process and generate 128-bit ID values. The 128-bit ID
values processed and generated by these APIs are a
generalization of OSF UUIDs as defined by <ulink
url="https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4122">RFC
4122</ulink> but use a simpler string
format. These functions impose no structure on the
used IDs, much unlike OSF UUIDs or Microsoft GUIDs,
but are fully compatible with those types of IDs.
</para>
<para>See
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_id128_to_string</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_id128_randomize</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry> and
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_id128_get_machine</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
for more information about the implemented
functions.</para>
<para>A 128-bit ID is implemented as the following
union type:</para>
<programlisting>typedef union sd_id128 {
uint8_t bytes[16];
uint64_t qwords[2];
} sd_id128_t;</programlisting>
<para>This union type allows accessing the 128-bit ID
as 16 separate bytes or two 64-bit words. It is generally
safer to access the ID components by their 8-bit array
to avoid endianness issues. This union is intended to
be passed call-by-value (as opposed to
call-by-reference) and may be directly manipulated by
clients.</para>
<para>A couple of macros are defined to denote and
decode 128-bit IDs:</para>
<para><function>SD_ID128_MAKE()</function> may be used
to denote a constant 128-bit ID in source code. A
commonly used idiom is to assign a name to a 128-bit
ID using this macro:</para>
<programlisting>#define SD_MESSAGE_COREDUMP SD_ID128_MAKE(fc,2e,22,bc,6e,e6,47,b6,b9,07,29,ab,34,a2,50,b1)</programlisting>
<para><function>SD_ID128_CONST_STR()</function> may be
used to convert constant 128-bit IDs into constant
strings for output. The following example code will
output the string
"fc2e22bc6ee647b6b90729ab34a250b1":</para>
<programlisting>int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
puts(SD_ID128_CONST_STR(SD_MESSAGE_COREDUMP));
}</programlisting>
<para><function>SD_ID128_FORMAT_STR</function> and
<function>SD_ID128_FORMAT_VAL()</function> may be used
to format a 128-bit ID in a
<citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>printf</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
format string, as shown in the following
example:</para>
<programlisting>int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
sd_id128_t id;
id = SD_ID128_MAKE(ee,89,be,71,bd,6e,43,d6,91,e6,c5,5d,eb,03,02,07);
printf("The ID encoded in this C file is " SD_ID128_FORMAT_STR ".\n", SD_ID128_FORMAT_VAL(id));
return 0;
}</programlisting>
<para>Use <function>sd_id128_equal()</function> to compare two 128-bit IDs:</para>
<programlisting>int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
sd_id128_t a, b, c;
a = SD_ID128_MAKE(ee,89,be,71,bd,6e,43,d6,91,e6,c5,5d,eb,03,02,07);
b = SD_ID128_MAKE(f2,28,88,9c,5f,09,44,15,9d,d7,04,77,58,cb,e7,3e);
c = a;
assert(sd_id128_equal(a, c));
assert(!sd_id128_equal(a, b));
return 0;
}</programlisting>
<para>Note that new, randomized IDs may be generated
with
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>journalctl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>'s
<option>--new-id</option> option.</para>
