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><function>sd_journal_next()</function> advances
|
||
the read pointer into the journal by one entry. The
|
||
only argument taken is a journal context object as
|
||
allocated via
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_open</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>. After
|
||
successful invocation the entry may be read with
|
||
functions such as
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_get_data</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>Similarly, <function>sd_journal_previous()</function> sets
|
||
the read pointer back one entry.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_journal_next_skip()</function> and
|
||
<function>sd_journal_previous_skip()</function>
|
||
advance/set back the read pointer by multiple entries
|
||
at once, as specified in the <varname>skip</varname>
|
||
parameter.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>The journal is strictly ordered by reception
|
||
time, and hence advancing to the next entry guarantees
|
||
that the entry then pointing to is later in time than
|
||
then previous one, or has the same timestamp.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>Note that
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_get_data</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
||
and related calls will fail unless
|
||
<function>sd_journal_next()</function> has been
|
||
invoked at least once in order to position the read
|
||
pointer on a journal entry.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>Note that the
|
||
<function>SD_JOURNAL_FOREACH()</function> macro may be used
|
||
as a wrapper around
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_seek_head</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
||
and <function>sd_journal_next()</function> in order to
|
||
make iterating through the journal easier. See below
|
||
for an example. Similarly,
|
||
<function>SD_JOURNAL_FOREACH_BACKWARDS()</function>
|
||
may be used for iterating the journal in reverse
|
||
order.</para>

|
||
<title>Return Value</title>
|
||
|
||
<para>The four calls return the number of entries
|
||
advanced/set back on success or a negative errno-style
|
||
error code. When the end or beginning of the journal
|
||
is reached, a number smaller than requested is
|
||
returned. More specifically, if
|
||
<function>sd_journal_next()</function> or
|
||
<function>sd_journal_previous()</function> reach the
|
||
end/beginning of the journal they will return 0,
|
||
instead of 1 when they are successful. This should be
|
||
considered an EOF marker.</para>
