Before: libsystemd-daemonpkg-config(1) After: libsystemd-daemon pkg-config(1) This fix is more complicated than it should be due to the consecutive XML elements separated by collapsible whitespace. Merging the lines and separating the XML elements with an en space or a non-breaking space is the only solution that results in one, and only one, space being inserted between them when testing. An em space results in two spaces being inserted.

<title>Description</title>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_journal_open()</function> opens
|
||
the log journal for reading. It will find all journal
|
||
files automatically and interleave them automatically
|
||
when reading. As first argument it takes a pointer to
|
||
a <varname>sd_journal</varname> pointer, which on
|
||
success will contain a journal context object. The
|
||
second argument is a flags field, which may consist of
|
||
the following flags ORed together:
|
||
<constant>SD_JOURNAL_LOCAL_ONLY</constant> makes sure
|
||
only journal files generated on the local machine will
|
||
be opened. <constant>SD_JOURNAL_RUNTIME_ONLY</constant>
|
||
makes sure only volatile journal files will be opened,
|
||
excluding those which are stored on persistent
|
||
storage. <constant>SD_JOURNAL_SYSTEM</constant>
|
||
will cause journal files of system services and the
|
||
kernel (in opposition to user session processes) to
|
||
be opened. <constant>SD_JOURNAL_CURRENT_USER</constant>
|
||
will cause journal files of the current user to be
|
||
opened. If neither <constant>SD_JOURNAL_SYSTEM</constant>
|
||
nor <constant>SD_JOURNAL_CURRENT_USER</constant> are
|
||
specified, all journal file types will be opened.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_journal_open_directory()</function>
|
||
is similar to <function>sd_journal_open()</function>
|
||
but takes an absolute directory path as argument. All
|
||
journal files in this directory will be opened and
|
||
interleaved automatically. This call also takes a
|
||
flags argument, but it must be passed as 0 as no flags
|
||
are currently understood for this call.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_journal_open_files()</function>
|
||
is similar to <function>sd_journal_open()</function>
|
||
but takes a <constant>NULL</constant>-terminated list
|
||
of file paths to open. All files will be opened and
|
||
interleaved automatically. This call also takes a
|
||
flags argument, but it must be passed as 0 as no flags
|
||
are currently understood for this call. Please note
|
||
that in the case of a live journal, this function is only
|
||
useful for debugging, because individual journal files
|
||
can be rotated at any moment, and the opening of
|
||
specific files is inherently racy.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_journal_close()</function> will
|
||
close the journal context allocated with
|
||
<function>sd_journal_open()</function> or
|
||
<function>sd_journal_open_directory()</function> and
|
||
free its resources.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>When opening the journal only journal files
|
||
accessible to the calling user will be opened. If
|
||
journal files are not accessible to the caller this
|
||
will be silently ignored.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>See
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_next</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
||
for an example of how to iterate through the journal
|
||
after opening it with
|
||
<function>sd_journal_open()</function>.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>A journal context object returned by
|
||
<function>sd_journal_open()</function> references a
|
||
specific journal entry as <emphasis>current</emphasis> entry,
|
||
similar to a file seek index in a classic file system
|
||
file, but without absolute positions. It may be
|
||
altered with
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_next</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
||
and
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_seek_head</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
||
and related calls. The current entry position may be
|
||
exported in <emphasis>cursor</emphasis> strings, as accessible
|
||
via
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_get_cursor</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>. Cursor
|
||
strings may be used to globally identify a specific
|
||
journal entry in a stable way and then later to seek
|
||
to it (or if the specific entry is not available
|
||
locally, to its closest entry in time)
