* tree-wide: drop license boilerplateZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2018-08-24
| | | | | | | | | | Files which are installed as-is (any .service and other unit files, .conf files, .policy files, etc), are left as is. My assumption is that SPDX identifiers are not yet that well known, so it's better to retain the extended header to avoid any doubt. I also kept any copyright lines. We can probably remove them, but it'd nice to obtain explicit acks from all involved authors before doing that.

* logind: fix SetLinger to authorize by client's effective User IDAlan Jenkins2017-09-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | SetLinger is authorized by the PolicyKit action "set-self-linger", if it is not passed an explicit UID. According to comments we were determining the default UID from the client's session. However, user processes e.g. which are run from a terminal emulator do not necessarily belong to a session scope unit. They may equally be started from the elogind user manager [1][2]. Actually the comment was wrong, and it would also have worked for processes started from the elogind user manager. Nevertheless it seems to involve fetching "augmented credentials" i.e. it's using a racy method, so we shouldn't have been authenticating based on it. We could change the default UID, but that raises issues especially for consistency between the methods. Instead we can just use the clients effective UID for authorization. This commit also fixes `loginctl enable-linger $USER` to match the docs that say it was equivalent to `loginctl enable-linger` (given that $USER matches the callers user and owner_uid). Previously, the former would not have suceeded for unpriviliged users in the default configuration. [1] It seems the main meaning of per-session scopes is tracking the PAM login process. Killing that provokes logind to revoke device access. Less circularly, killing it provokes getty to hangup the TTY. [2] User units may be started with an environment which includes XDG_SESSION_ID (presuambly GNOME does this?). Or not.

* man: use unicode ellipsis in more placesZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2017-07-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | As requested in https://github.com/elogind/elogind/pull/4864#pullrequestreview-12372557. docbook will substitute triple dots for the ellipsis in man output, so this has no effect on the troff output, only on HTML, making it infinitesimally nicer. In some places we show output from programs, which use dots, and those places should not be changed. In some tables, the alignment would change if dots were changed to the ellipsis which is only one character. Since docbook replaces the ellipsis automatically, we should leave those be. This patch changes all other places.

* Prep v222: Update build system:Sven Eden2017-03-14
| | | | | | | | - The content of the man pages directory has been overhauled - Makefile-man.am was regenerated - Makefile.am and configure.ac needed a few addtitions and fixes - Some masked functions had to be unmasked - Now superfluous files have been removed
* Prep v221: Update and clean up build system to sync with upstreamSven Eden2017-03-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit replays the moving around of source files that have been done between systemd-219 and systemd-221. Further the Makefile.am is synchronized with the upstream version and then "re-cleaned". A lot of functions, that are not used anywhere in elogind have been coated into #if 0/#endif directives to further shorten the list of dependencies. All unneeded files have been removed.
* man: revert dynamic paths for split-usr setupsTom Gundersen2017-03-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.
* man: generate configured paths in manpagesFilipe Brandenburger2017-03-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* man: drop references to "cgroup" wher appropriateLennart Poettering2013-09-27
| | | | | | | | | | | Since cgroups are mostly now an implementation detail of systemd lets deemphasize it a bit in the man pages. This renames systemd.cgroup(5) to systemd.resource-control(5) and uses the term "resource control" rather than "cgroup" where appropriate. This leaves the word "cgroup" in at a couple of places though, like for example systemd-cgtop and systemd-cgls where cgroup stuff is at the core of what is happening.

| | | | | | | | | | Use proper grammar, word usage, adjective hyphenation, commas, capitalization, spelling, etc. To improve readability, some run-on sentences or sentence fragments were revised. [zj: remove the space from 'file name', 'host name', and 'time zone'.]

* man: Make options consistentWilliam Giokas2013-02-13
| | | | | | | Option listings seemed to be pretty much random, some were short opt, long opt, others were long opt, short opt. This just makes every option with a short and long opt that I could find in the order short opt, long opt, for formatting's sake.
* build-sys: create Makefile-man.am automaticallyZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2013-02-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | man rules were repeating the same information in too many places, which was error prone. Those rules can be easily generated from .xml files. For efficiency and because python is not a required dependency, Makefile-man.am is only regenerated when requested with make update-man-list If no metadata in man/*.xml changed, this file should not change. So only when a new man page or a new alias is added, this file should show up in 'git diff'. The change should then be committed. If the support for building from git without python was dropped, we could drop Makefile-man.am from version control. This would also increase the partial build time (since more stuff would be rebuild whenever sources in man/*.xml would be modified), so it would probably wouldn't be worth it.
* man: extend systemd.directives(7) to all manual pagesZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2013-01-26
| | | | | | | | | | New sections are added: PAM options, crypttab options, commandline options, miscellaneous. The last category will be used for all untagged <varname> elements. Commandline options sections is meant to be a developer tool: when adding an option it is sometimes useful to be able to check if similarly named options exist elsewhere.
