Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 8b9f092112 man: fix issues reported by the manpage-l10n project
Fixes #25780.

Seems OK to me. The full stop is there and has been for at least a few years. And we use <option> for the markup, which is appropriate here.

> Man page: crypttab.5
> Issue 1:  Missing fullstop

Same.

Fixed.

Fixed.

This is a bit awkward, but I'm not sure how to fix it.

> Man page: kernel-install.8
> Issue:    methods a fallback → methods fallback

It was correct, but I added a comma to make the sense clearer.

> Man page: loader.conf.5
> Issue 1:  secure boot variables → Secure Boot variables

"one of" would sound strange. "One this and one that" is OK.

> Man page: loader.conf.5
> Issue:    systemd-boot → B<systemd-boot>(7)

Fixed.

> Man page: logind.conf.5
> Issue:    systemd-logind → B<systemd-logind>(8)

We use <filename>systemd-logind</> on subsequent references… I think that's good enough.

> Man page: nss-myhostname.8
> Issue:    B<getent> → B<getent>(1)

Fixed.

> Man page: nss-resolve.8
> Issue:    B<systemd-resolved> → B<systemd-resolved>(8)

The first reference does this, subsequent are shorter.

> Man page: os-release.5
> Issue:    Portable Services → Portable Services Documentation?

Updated.

> Man page: pam_systemd_home.8
> Issue:    auth and account use "reason", while session and password do not?

Reworded.

> Man page: portablectl.1
> Issue:    In systemd-portabled.service(8): Portable Services Documentation

Updated.

> Man page: repart.d.5
> Issue:    The partition → the partition

Fixed.

> Man page: repart.d.5
> Issue:    B<systemd-repart> → B<systemd-repart>(8)

The first reference does this. I also change this one, because it's pretty far down in the text.

> Man page: systemd.1
> Issue:    kernel command line twice?
>
> "Takes a boolean argument\\&. If false disables importing credentials from "
> "the kernel command line, qemu_fw_cfg subsystem or the kernel command line\\&."

Apparently this was fixed already.

> Man page: systemd-boot.7
> Issue:    enrollement → enrollment

Fixed.

> Man page: systemd-cryptenroll.1
> Issue:    multiple cases: any specified → the specified

Reworded.

> Man page: systemd-cryptenroll.1
> Issue:    If this this → If this

Fixed tree-wide.

> Man page: systemd-cryptsetup-generator.8
> Issue:    and the initrd → and in the initrd

"Is honoured by the initrd" is OK, because we often speak about the initrd as a single unit. But in the same paragraph we also used "in the initrd", which makes the other use look sloppy. I changed it to "in the initrd" everywhere in that file.

> Man page: systemd.directives.7
> Issue:    Why are these two quoted (but not others)?
>
> "B<\\*(Aqh\\*(Aq>"
>
> B<\\*(Aqs\\*(Aq>"
>
> "B<\\*(Aqy\\*(Aq>"

This is autogenerated from files… We use slightly different markup in different files, and it's just too hard to make it consistent. We gave up on this.

> Man page: systemd.exec.5
> Issue 1:  B<at>(1p) → B<at>(1)
> Issue 2:  B<crontab>(1p) → B<crontab>(1)

Fixed.

> Man page: systemd.exec.5
> Issue:    B<select()> → B<select>(2)

Fixed.

> Man page: systemd.exec.5
> Issue:   qemu → B<qemu>(1)

The man page doesn't seem to be in any of the canonical places on the web.
I added a link to online docs.

> Man page: systemd.exec.5
> Issue:    variable → variables

Seems to be fixed already.

> Man page: systemd-integritysetup-generator.8
> Issue:    systemd-integritysetup-generator → B<systemd-integritysetup-generator>

I changed <filename> to <command>.

> Man page: systemd-integritysetup-generator.8
> Issue:    superfluous comma at the end

Already fixed.

> Man page: systemd-measure.1
> Issue:    (see B<--pcr-bank=>) below → (see B<--pcr-bank=> below)

Reworded.

> Man page: systemd-measure.1
> Issue:    =PATH> → =>I<PATH>

Fixed.

> Man page: systemd-measure.1.po
> Issue:    B<--bank=DIGEST> → B<--bank=>I<DIGEST>

Fixed.

> Man page: systemd.netdev.5
> Issue:    os the → on the

Appears to have been fixed already.

> Man page: systemd.netdev.5
> Issue:    Onboard → On-board (as in previous string)

Updated.

> Man page: systemd.network.5
> Issue:    B<systemd-networkd> -> B<systemd-networkd>(8)

First reference does this, subsequent do not.

> Man page: systemd.network.5
> Issue:    B<netlabelctl> → B<netlabelctl>(8)

First reference does this, subsequent do not.

> Man page: systemd.network.5
> Issue:    Missing verb (aquired? configured?) in the half sentence starting with "or by a "

I dropped the comma.

> Man page: systemd-nspawn.1
> Issue:    All host users outside of that range → All other host users

Reworded.

> # FIXME no effect → no effect\\&.
> #. type: Plain text
> #: archlinux debian-unstable fedora-rawhide mageia-cauldron opensuse-tumbleweed
> msgid ""
> "Whichever ID mapping option is used, the same mapping will be used for users "
> "and groups IDs\\&. If B<rootidmap> is used, the group owning the bind "
> "mounted directory will have no effect"

A period is added. Not sure if there's some other issue.

> Man page: systemd-oomd.service.8
> Issue:    B<systemd> → B<systemd>(1)

Done.

> Man page: systemd.path.5
> Issue 1:  B<systemd.exec>(1) → B<systemd.exec>(5)
> Issue 2:  This section does not (yet?) exist

Fixed.

> Man page: systemd-pcrphase.service.8
> Issue 1:  indicate phases into TPM2 PCR 11 ??
> Issue 2: Colon at the end of the paragraph?

Fixed.

> Man page: systemd-pcrphase.service.8
> Issue:    final boot phase → final shutdown phase?

Updated.

> Man page: systemd-pcrphase.service.8
> Issue:    for the the → for the

Fixed tree-wide.

> Man page: systemd-portabled.service.8
> Issue:    In systemd-portabled.service(8): Portable Services Documentation

Updated.

> Man page: systemd-pstore.service.8
> Issue:    Here and the following paragraphs: . → \\&. // Upstream: What does this comment mean? // You normally write \\&. for a full dot (full stop etc.); here you write only "." (i.e. a plain dot).

Looks all OK to me.

> Man page: systemd.resource-control.5
> Issue:    Missing closing bracket after link to Control Groups version 1

Fixed.

> Man page: systemd-sysext.8
> Issue:    In systemd-portabled.service(8): Portable Services Documentation

Updated.

"image" seems correct.

<title>Description</title>
<para>A unit configuration file whose name ends in
<literal>.timer</literal> encodes information about a timer
controlled and supervised by systemd, for timer-based
activation.</para>
<para>This man page lists the configuration options specific to
this unit type. See
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.unit</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
for the common options of all unit configuration files. The common
configuration items are configured in the generic [Unit] and
[Install] sections. The timer specific configuration options are
configured in the [Timer] section.</para>
<para>For each timer file, a matching unit file must exist,
describing the unit to activate when the timer elapses. By
default, a service by the same name as the timer (except for the
suffix) is activated. Example: a timer file
<filename>foo.timer</filename> activates a matching service
<filename>foo.service</filename>. The unit to activate may be
controlled by <varname>Unit=</varname> (see below).</para>
<para>Note that in case the unit to activate is already active at the time the timer elapses it is not restarted,
but simply left running. There is no concept of spawning new service instances in this case. Due to this, services
with <varname>RemainAfterExit=</varname> set (which stay around continuously even after the service's main process
exited) are usually not suitable for activation via repetitive timers, as they will only be activated once, and
then stay around forever.</para>

on <filename>timers.target</filename>, as well as <varname>Conflicts=</varname> and <varname>Before=</varname> on
<filename>shutdown.target</filename> to ensure that they are stopped cleanly prior to system shutdown. Only timer
units involved with early boot or late system shutdown should disable the
<varname>DefaultDependencies=</varname> option.</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>Timer units with at least one <varname>OnCalendar=</varname> directive acquire a pair
of additional <varname>After=</varname> dependencies on <filename>time-set.target</filename> and
<filename>time-sync.target</filename>, in order to avoid being started before the system clock has
been correctly set. See

<title>Options</title>
<para>Timer unit files may include [Unit] and [Install] sections, which are described in
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.unit</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
</para>
<para>Timer unit files must include a [Timer] section, which carries
information about the timer it defines. The options specific to
the [Timer] section of timer units are the following:</para>
<variablelist class='unit-directives'>

</row>
<row>
<entry><varname>OnStartupSec=</varname></entry>
<entry>Defines a timer relative to when the service manager was first started. For system timer units this is very similar to <varname>OnBootSec=</varname> as the system service manager is generally started very early at boot.

</table>
<para>Multiple directives may be combined of the same and of different types, in which case the timer
unit will trigger whenever any of the specified timer expressions elapse. For example, by combining
<varname>OnBootSec=</varname> and <varname>OnUnitActiveSec=</varname>, it is possible to define a
timer that elapses in regular intervals and activates a specific service each time. Moreover, both
monotonic time expressions and <varname>OnCalendar=</varname> calendar expressions may be combined in
the same timer unit.</para>
<para>The arguments to the directives are time spans
configured in seconds. Example: "OnBootSec=50" means 50s after
boot-up. The argument may also include time units. Example:
"OnBootSec=5h 30min" means 5 hours and 30 minutes after
boot-up. For details about the syntax of time spans, see
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.time</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
<para>If a timer configured with <varname>OnBootSec=</varname>
or <varname>OnStartupSec=</varname> is already in the past
when the timer unit is activated, it will immediately elapse
and the configured unit is started. This is not the case for
timers defined in the other directives.</para>
<para>These are monotonic timers, independent of wall-clock time and timezones. If the computer is
temporarily suspended, the monotonic clock generally pauses, too. Note that if
<varname>WakeSystem=</varname> is used, a different monotonic clock is selected that continues to
advance while the system is suspended and thus can be used as the trigger to resume the
system.</para>
<para>If the empty string is assigned to any of these options, the list of timers is reset (both
monotonic timers and <varname>OnCalendar=</varname> timers, see below), and all prior assignments
will have no effect.</para>
<para>Note that timers do not necessarily expire at the
precise time configured with these settings, as they are
subject to the <varname>AccuracySec=</varname> setting
below.</para></listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><varname>OnCalendar=</varname></term>
<listitem><para>Defines realtime (i.e. wallclock) timers with
calendar event expressions. See
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.time</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>
for more information on the syntax of calendar event
expressions. Otherwise, the semantics are similar to
<varname>OnActiveSec=</varname> and related settings.</para>
<para>Note that timers do not necessarily expire at the
precise time configured with this setting, as it is subject to
the <varname>AccuracySec=</varname> setting
below.</para>
<para>May be specified more than once, in which case the timer unit will trigger whenever any of the
specified expressions elapse. Moreover calendar timers and monotonic timers (see above) may be
combined within the same timer unit.</para>
<para>If the empty string is assigned to any of these options, the list of timers is reset (both
<varname>OnCalendar=</varname> timers and monotonic timers, see above), and all prior assignments
will have no effect.</para></listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><varname>AccuracySec=</varname></term>
<listitem><para>Specify the accuracy the timer shall elapse
with. Defaults to 1min. The timer is scheduled to elapse
within a time window starting with the time specified in
<varname>OnCalendar=</varname>,
<varname>OnActiveSec=</varname>,
<varname>OnBootSec=</varname>,
<varname>OnStartupSec=</varname>,
<varname>OnUnitActiveSec=</varname> or
<varname>OnUnitInactiveSec=</varname> and ending the time
configured with <varname>AccuracySec=</varname> later. Within
this time window, the expiry time will be placed at a
host-specific, randomized, but stable position that is
synchronized between all local timer units. This is done in
order to optimize power consumption to suppress unnecessary
CPU wake-ups. To get best accuracy, set this option to
1us. Note that the timer is still subject to the timer slack
configured via
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-system.conf</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>'s
<varname>TimerSlackNSec=</varname> setting. See
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>prctl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>2</manvolnum></citerefentry>
for details. To optimize power consumption, make sure to set
this value as high as possible and as low as
necessary.</para>
<para>Note that this setting is primarily a power saving option that allows coalescing CPU
wake-ups. It should not be confused with <varname>RandomizedDelaySec=</varname> (see below) which
adds a random value to the time the timer shall elapse next and whose purpose is the opposite: to
stretch elapsing of timer events over a longer period to reduce workload spikes. For further details
and explanations and how both settings play together, see below.</para></listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><varname>RandomizedDelaySec=</varname></term>
<listitem><para>Delay the timer by a randomly selected, evenly distributed amount of time between 0
and the specified time value. Defaults to 0, indicating that no randomized delay shall be applied.
Each timer unit will determine this delay randomly before each iteration, and the delay will simply
be added on top of the next determined elapsing time, unless modified with
<varname>FixedRandomDelay=</varname>, see below.</para>
<para>This setting is useful to stretch dispatching of similarly configured timer events over a
certain time interval, to prevent them from firing all at the same time, possibly resulting in
resource congestion.</para>
<para>Note the relation to <varname>AccuracySec=</varname> above: the latter allows the service
manager to coalesce timer events within a specified time range in order to minimize wakeups, while
this setting does the opposite: it stretches timer events over an interval, to make it unlikely that
they fire simultaneously. If <varname>RandomizedDelaySec=</varname> and
<varname>AccuracySec=</varname> are used in conjunction, first the randomized delay is added, and
then the result is possibly further shifted to coalesce it with other timer events happening on the
system. As mentioned above <varname>AccuracySec=</varname> defaults to 1 minute and
<varname>RandomizedDelaySec=</varname> to 0, thus encouraging coalescing of timer events. In order to
optimally stretch timer events over a certain range of time, set
<varname>AccuracySec=1us</varname> and <varname>RandomizedDelaySec=</varname> to some higher value.
</para></listitem>

<varlistentry>
<term><varname>FixedRandomDelay=</varname></term>
<listitem><para>Takes a boolean argument. When enabled, the randomized offset specified by
<varname>RandomizedDelaySec=</varname> is reused for all firings of the same timer. For a given timer
unit, the offset depends on the machine ID, user identifier and timer name, which means that it is
stable between restarts of the manager. This effectively creates a fixed offset for an individual
timer, reducing the jitter in firings of this timer, while still avoiding firing at the same time as
other similarly configured timers.</para>

<listitem><para>These options take boolean arguments. When true, the service unit will be triggered
when the system clock (<constant>CLOCK_REALTIME</constant>) jumps relative to the monotonic clock

The argument is a unit name, whose suffix is not
<literal>.timer</literal>. If not specified, this value
defaults to a service that has the same name as the timer
unit, except for the suffix. (See above.) It is recommended
that the unit name that is activated and the unit name of the
timer unit are named identically, except for the
suffix.</para></listitem>

<varlistentry>
<term><varname>Persistent=</varname></term>
<listitem><para>Takes a boolean argument. If true, the time when the service unit was last triggered
is stored on disk. When the timer is activated, the service unit is triggered immediately if it
would have been triggered at least once during the time when the timer was inactive. Such triggering
is nonetheless subject to the delay imposed by <varname>RandomizedDelaySec=</varname>.
This is useful to catch up on missed runs of the service when the system was powered down. Note that
this setting only has an effect on timers configured with <varname>OnCalendar=</varname>. Defaults to
<option>false</option>.</para>
<para>Use <command>systemctl clean --what=state …</command> on the timer unit to remove the timestamp

queryable even after it elapsed and the associated unit (as configured with <varname>Unit=</varname>,
see above) deactivated again. If false, an elapsed timer unit that cannot elapse anymore is unloaded
once its associated unit deactivated again. Turning this off is particularly useful for transient
timer units. Note that this setting has an effect when repeatedly starting a timer unit: if
<varname>RemainAfterElapse=</varname> is on, starting the timer a second time has no effect. However,
if <varname>RemainAfterElapse=</varname> is off and the timer unit was already unloaded, it can be
started again, and thus the service can be triggered multiple times. Defaults to
<option>true</option>.</para></listitem>
