This did not really work out as we had hoped. Trying to do this upstream introduced several problems that probably makes it better suited as a downstream patch after all. At any rate, it is not releaseable in the current state, so we at least need to revert this before the release. * by adjusting the path to binaries, but not do the same thing to the search path we end up with inconsistent man-pages. Adjusting the search path too would be quite messy, and it is not at all obvious that this is worth the effort, but at any rate it would have to be done before we could ship this. * this means that distributed man-pages does not make sense as they depend on config options, and for better or worse we are still distributing man pages, so that is something that definitely needs sorting out before we could ship with this patch. * we have long held that split-usr is only minimally supported in order to boot, and something we hope will eventually go away. So before we start adding even more magic/effort in order to make this work nicely, we should probably question if it makes sense at all.

<title>Description</title>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_journal_seek_head()</function> seeks to the
|
||
beginning of the journal, i.e. the oldest available entry.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>Similarly, <function>sd_journal_seek_tail()</function> may
|
||
be used to seek to the end of the journal, i.e. the most recent
|
||
available entry.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_journal_seek_monotonic_usec()</function> seeks
|
||
to the entry with the specified monotonic timestamp, i.e.
|
||
<constant>CLOCK_MONOTONIC</constant>. Since monotonic time
|
||
restarts on every reboot a boot ID needs to be specified as
|
||
well.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_journal_seek_realtime_usec()</function> seeks
|
||
to the entry with the specified realtime (wallclock) timestamp,
|
||
i.e. <constant>CLOCK_REALTIME</constant>. Note that the realtime
|
||
clock is not necessarily monotonic. If a realtime timestamp is
|
||
ambiguous, it is not defined which position is sought to.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_journal_seek_cursor()</function> seeks to the
|
||
entry located at the specified cursor string. For details on
|
||
cursors, see
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_get_cursor</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
|
||
If no entry matching the specified cursor is found the call will
|
||
seek to the next closest entry (in terms of time) instead. To
|
||
verify whether the newly selected entry actually matches the
|
||
cursor, use
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_test_cursor</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>Note that these calls do not actually make any entry the new
|
||
current entry, this needs to be done in a separate step with a
|
||
subsequent
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_next</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
||
invocation (or a similar call). Only then, entry data may be
|
||
retrieved via
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_get_data</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
|
||
If no entry exists that matches exactly the specified seek
|
||
address, the next closest is sought to. If
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_next</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
||
is used, the closest following entry will be sought to, if
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_previous</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
||
is used the closest preceding entry is sought to.</para>
