As pointed out in https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/29814, we need to
use phrases are are meaningful on their own, because the man page formatter
creates a list at the bottom. With <ulink>see docs</ulink>, we end up with:
NOTES:
1. see docs
https://some.url/page
2. see docs
https://some.url/page2
which is not very useful :(
Also, the text inside the tag should not include punctuation.
Python helper:
from xml_helper import xml_parse
for p in glob.glob('../man/*.xml'):
t = xml_parse(p)
ulinks = t.iterfind('.//ulink')
for ulink in ulinks:
if ulink.text is None: continue
text = ' '.join(ulink.text.split())
print(f'{p}: {text}')
As I noticed a lot of missing information when trying to implement checking
for missing info. I reimplemented the version information script to be more
robust, and here is the result.
Follow up to ec07c3c80b
This tries to add information about when each option was added. It goes
back to version 183.
The version info is included from a separate file to allow generating it,
which would allow more control on the formatting of the final output.
In most cases we refernced the concept as "initrd". Let's convert most
remaining uses of "initramfs" to "initrd" too, to stay internally
consistent.
This leaves "initramfs" only where it's relevant to explain historical
concepts or where "initramfs" is part of the API (i.e. in
/run/initramfs).

967de8face added a note that I found very hard
to understand. Reword it, and also describe how IMPORT and PROGRAM are different
from RUN.
Minor markup adjustements too.
Currently, there is no way to match against system-wide constants, such
as architecture or virtualization type, without forking helper binaries.
That potentially results in a huge number of spawned processes which
output always the same answer.
This patch introduces a special CONST keyword which takes a hard-coded
string as its key and returns a value assigned to that key. Currently
implemented are CONST{arch} and CONST{virt}, which can be used to match
against the system's architecture and virtualization type.
The "include" files had type "book" for some raeason. I don't think this
is meaningful. Let's just use the same everywhere.
$ perl -i -0pe 's^..DOCTYPE (book|refentry) PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.[25]//EN"\s+"http^<!DOCTYPE refentry PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.5//EN"\n "http^gms' man/*.xml
This adds /usr/local/lib/udev/rules.d to the search path on non-split-usr systems.
On split-usr systems, the paths with /usr/-prefixes are added too.
In the past, on split-usr systems, it made sense to only load rules from
/lib/udev/rules.d, because /usr could be mounted late. But we don't support running
without /usr since 80758717a6, so in practice it doesn't matter whether the
rules files are in /lib/udev/rules.d or /usr/lib/udev/rules.d. Distributions
that maintain the illusion of functional split-usr are welcome to simply not put any
files in /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/.
In practice this doesn't change much, but it makes udev more consistent with the
rest of the systemd suite.
Without this fix, udev(7) munges the two items together, like so:
ATTR{filename}, SYSCTL{kernel parameter}
Match sysfs attribute values of the event device. Trailing
whitespace in the attribute values is ignored unless the specified
match value itself contains trailing whitespace. Match a kernel
parameter value.
You're not allowed to have a <term> element after a <listitem> element within a
<varlistentry>.
xmllint complains:
udev.xml:192: element varlistentry: validity error : Element varlistentry content does not follow the DTD, expecting (term+ , listitem), got (term listitem term listitem )
