systemd-cryptsetup recognizes option 'allow-discards' in /etc/crypttab
to enable TRIM passthrough to underlying encrypted device. In Debian
this option was changed to 'discard' to avoid hyphen in option name.
(see: #648868 and `man crypttab`).
[zj: update crypttab(5) too, making "discard" the default.]
Existing --pretty, --transient, --static options, used previously
for 'set-hostname' verb, are reused for the 'status' verb. If one
of them is given, only the specified hostname is printed. This
way there's no need to employ awk to get the hostname in a script.
The generator paths are internal implementation details, they should not
be documented explicitly.
We should document where private user units are found however.
Stop importing non-sensical kernel-exported variables. All
parameters in the kernel command line are exported to the
initial environment of PID1, but suppressed if they are
recognized by kernel built-in code. The EFI booted kernel
will add further kernel-internal things which do not belong
into userspace.
The passed original environ data of the process is not touched
and preserved across re-execution, to allow external reading of
/proc/self/environ for process properties like container*=.
"systemctl load" has always been racy since the GC could hit any time,
before making use of the loaded unit. Very recent systemd will run GC
immeidately after all unit state changes which has the effect that the
the effect of "systemctl load" is completely gone now, so let's remove
the support for it in "systemctl" for good.
"systemctl set-log-level" is a command for analysis and tracing hence
"systemd-analyze" should be the better home for it, thus allowing us to
make the overly large "systemctl" a bit smaller.
It's an analysis command and its format is explicitly not covered by any
stability guarantees, hence move away from systemctl and into
systemd-analyze, minimizing the already large interface of systemctl a
bit.
This patch also adds auto-paging to the various systemd-analyze commands
where that makes sense
Instead of :-0, :1, :5, etc., use -0, 1 or +1, 5, etc. For BOOT_ID+OFFSET,
use BOOT_ID+offset or BOOT_ID-offset (either + or - is required).
Also make error handling a bit more robust and verbose.
Modify the man page to describe the most common case (-b) first,
and the second most common case (-b -1) second.
Based on a patch by Kay Sievers.
A tag is exported at boot as a symlinks to the device node in the folder
/run/udev/static_node-tags/<tagname>/, if the device node exists.
These tags are cleaned up by udevadm info --cleanup-db, but are otherwise
never removed.
A few asserts are replaced with 'return -EINVAL'. I think that
assert should not be used to check argument in public functions.
Fields in struct sd_journal are rearranged to make it less
swiss-cheesy.
