In --help output, change "$0" → "kernel-install". We generally don't include
the full path in --help output, and let's not do this here either.
kernel-install is now in build/ directly, not in the subdirectory.
GIT_VERSION is not available as a config.h variable, because it's rendered
into version.h during builds. Let's rework jinja2 rendering to also
parse version.h. No functional change, the new variable is so far unused.
I guess this will make partial rebuilds a bit slower, but it's useful
to be able to use the full version string.
A long name of one parameter was making the whole thing very wide.
I think that it's obvious from the context what the argument is,
so a shorter name should be just as good.
This is very similar to (and directly based on) the test for --help. I think
it's nice to do this: the test is very quick, but it'll catch cases where we
forgot to hook up the option, or forgot to exit after printing --version, and
it'll also increase our test coverage a bit.
The configuration options where added back in
a520bb6654 but this was never actually
added to the default logind.conf.

This is based on the output on my laptop, with various manual adjustments.
If people have other types of entries, it'd be useful to add them here. In
particular, some dual-boot entries would be nice.
Strangely enough, having <varlistenetry>s outside of <variablelist> wasn't
causing visual problems. But having two <listitem>s in one <varlistentry>
resulted in the paragraphs running together in the rendered man page.
We must be consistent in the two listings, so let's split out the loading code
and call it from both verb_status() and verb_list(). This effectively makes
verb_status() also call efi_loader_get_entries().
There is still some code duplicated, but that's hard to avoid. Error messages
are made identical for the same errors in various places.
Fixes#22580.
Some parts of our tree used 'Architecture' for storing architectures,
others used ints. Let's unify on the former.
Inspired by #22952's rework of the 'Virtualization' enum.
Let's make it easier to discern the "header" of device records from the
"body", i.e. non-property data from property data, by using some
conservative coloring.
Let's make things easier to debug, and show a more comprehensive set of
fields, extending on the existing output syntax that starts with one
marker character followed by a colon and a space.
Change f887eab1da conditionalized the
building of ther kenel-install man page in the generated meson output,
instead of the source in the XML markup. Thus, whenever the rules file
is updated the conditionalization is lost. Correct that.

This can be problematic especially when there's no more free disk
space. Consider the following:.
When disk space becomes sparse, writting to the system journal can lead to
error. In this case journald attempts to make room by rotating the journals,
which consists in archiving online journals and opening new ones.
However opening new files is likely to fail too and in this case
journal_file_open() leaves half initialized file around but in online
state. Then the error is propagated and journald switches into volatile mode.
Next time a new message is received by journald, it tries to open the
persistent system journal file to switch automatically back to persistent
mode.
When opening the system journal, journal_file_open(), called by
managed_journal_file_open_reliably(), finds the persistent system journal left
previously and assumes that it was uncleanly closed and considers it as
corrupted. The error is reported to managed_journal_file_open_reliably(), which
backs the file up and attempts to create a new system file, which fails and
leaves a corrupted system file again.
Since this is done for each message received by journald, /var/log/message can
be filled with backup files pretty quickly.
To prevent this, the patch makes sure to delete the newly created file in case
of error.
