Regardless of whether a vc path is passed, the behavior of
systemd-vconsole-setup wasn't ideal when either the passed vc or /dev/tty1 was
in graphics mode.
When a vc in graphics mode was passed, no message was emitted despite the fact
that the font settings couldn't be applied. The previous code might have
assumed that setfont(8) would throw a warning but that's not case.
When no argument was passed, systemd-vconsole-setup was supposed to
automatically select a valid tty, init it and copy the font setting to the
remaining ttys. However if the selected virtual console was in KD_GRAPHICS mode
the initialization of the font failed not only for the selected source vc but
for all of them.
With <para><filename>…</filename></para>, we get a separate "paragraph" for
each line, i.e. entries separated by empty lines. This uses up a lot of space
and was only done because docbook makes it hard to insert a newline. In some
other places, <literallayout> was used, but then we cannot indent the source
text (because the whitespace would end up in the final page). We can get the
desired result with <simplelist>.
With <simplelist> the items are indented in roff output, but not in html
output. In some places this looks better then no indentation, and in others it
would probably be better to have no indent. But this is a minor issue and we
cannot control that.
(I didn't convert all spots. There's a bunch of other man pages which have two
lines, e.g. an executable and service file, and it doesn't matter there so
much.)
Then, all nexthops managed by networkd really exist (unless the kernel
silently removes a nexthop).
This is the same for nexthop already done by
3c283289ae and
0a0c2672db (for address), and
5d098f5d36 (for neighbor).
The kernel manages nexthops by their IDs. Previously networkd manages
nexthops in three ways:
- by the corresponding link, if a nexthop has ifindex,
- by the manager, if a nexthop does not have ifindex,
- by the manager with their IDs.
This unifies the three managements of nexthops into one, and use the
same way as the kernel uses.
This is the one for nexthop already done by
aa9626ee3b for neighbor.
If a nexthop is requested without a valid ID, then nexthop_acquire_id()
assigns an unused ID. So, at the time nexthop_configure() is called, the
ID is always valid.
Same as $KERNEL_INSTALL_BYPASS, but for hwdb. This will speed up
cross architecture image builds in mkosi as I can disable package
managers from running the costly hwdb update stuff in qemu user
mode and run it myself with a native systemd-hwdb with --root=.
This is gets the resource limits off a specified process, and is very
similar to prlimit() with a NULL new_rlimit argument. In fact, it tries
that first. However, it then falls back to use /proc/$PID/limits. Why?
Simply because Linux prohibits access to prlimit() for processes with a
different UID, but /proc/$PID/limits still works.
This is preparation to allow nspawn to run unprivileged.
