In particular, use /lib/systemd instead of /usr/lib/systemd in distributions like Debian which still have not adopted a /usr merge setup. Use XML entities from man/custom-entities.ent to replace configured paths while doing XSLT processing of the original XML files. There was precedent of some files (such as systemd.generator.xml) which were already using this approach. This addresses most of the (manual) fixes from this patch: http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-systemd/systemd.git/tree/debian/patches/Fix-paths-in-man-pages.patch?h=experimental-220 The idea of using generic XML entities was presented here: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2015-May/032240.html This patch solves almost all the issues, with the exception of: - Path to /bin/mount and /bin/umount. - Generic statements about preference of /lib over /etc. These will be handled separately by follow up patches. Tested: - With default configure settings, ran "make install" to two separate directories and compared the output to confirm they matched exactly. - Used a set of configure flags including $CONFFLAGS from Debian: http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-systemd/systemd.git/tree/debian/rules Installed the tree and confirmed the paths use /lib/systemd instead of /usr/lib/systemd and that no other unexpected differences exist. - Confirmed that `make distcheck` still passes.

<title>Description</title>
|
|
<para>
|
|
<command>systemd-bootchart</command> is a tool, usually run at
|
|
system startup, that collects the CPU load, disk load, memory
|
|
usage, as well as per-process information from a running system.
|
|
Collected results are output as an SVG graph. Normally,
|
|
systemd-bootchart is invoked by the kernel by passing
|
|
<option>init=<filename>&rootlibexecdir;/systemd-bootchart</filename></option>
|
|
on the kernel command line. systemd-bootchart will then fork the
|
|
real init off to resume normal system startup, while monitoring
|
|
and logging startup information in the background.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
After collecting a certain amount of data (usually 15-30
|
|
seconds, default 20 s) the logging stops and a graph is
|
|
generated from the logged information. This graph contains vital
|
|
clues as to which resources are being used, in which order, and
|
|
where possible problems exist in the startup sequence of the
|
|
system. It is essentially a more detailed version of the
|
|
<command>systemd-analyze plot</command> function.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Of course, bootchart can also be used at any moment in time to
|
|
collect and graph some data for an amount of time. It is
|
|
recommended to use the <option>--rel</option> switch in this
|
|
case.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Bootchart does not require root privileges, and will happily run
|
|
as a normal user.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Bootchart graphs are by default written time-stamped in
|
|
<filename>/run/log</filename> and saved to the journal with
|
|
<varname>MESSAGE_ID=9f26aa562cf440c2b16c773d0479b518</varname>.
|
|
Journal field <varname>BOOTCHART=</varname> contains the
|
|
bootchart in SVG format.

In order to render those on a graphical display any SVG capable

viewer can be used. It should be noted that the SVG render engines
|
|
in most browsers (including Chrome and Firefox) are many times
|
|
faster than dedicated graphical applications like Gimp and

Inkscape. Just point your browser at

|
<para>The version of bootchart you are using now combines both the
|
|
data collection and the charting into a single application, making
|
|
it more efficient and simpler. There are no longer any timing
|
|
issues with the data collector and the grapher, as the graphing
|
|
cannot be run until the data has been collected. Also, the data
|
|
kept in memory is reduced to the absolute minimum needed.</para>

<title>Bugs</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>systemd-bootchart does not get the model information for the
|
|
hard drive unless the root device is specified with
|
|
<code>root=/dev/sdxY</code>. Using UUIDs or PARTUUIDs will boot
|

fine, but the hard drive model will not be added to the
