We should probably refer to them from other man pages
for programs which use them, since right now all refs are
in systemd-boot(7). But creating the section is a good step
anyway.
They is quite a bit of those directives and they were in "MISCELLANEOUS" because
they don't quite fit anywhere. When the OCI-compat stuff is merged, there'll
be even more, so let's make a separate section for them.
We had "SYSTEM MANAGER DIRECTIVES" which was a misnomer already, because
it also listed user manager stuff. Let's make this a more general section
and move the items for other services there too (from "MISCELANENOUS").
Strictly speaking, those are not environment variables, but they are compatible
and people think about them like this. Moving them makes them easier to find.
The script does not use any bash features.
On NixOS we have /bin/sh and /usr/bin/env for posix compatibility
but not /bin/bash as it is stored in our nix store.
With this change one can run the `meson configure` without patching
which greatly helps, when working on upstream contributions.
This uses a {% for %} loop in Jekyll to render the page, from the "title"
information in the Front Matter of the actual page files.
This also makes `make-index-md` build rule unnecessary, since generation is
done by the template engine itself.
Tested this by running Jekyll locally.
This will be useful when building distro packages, because we can set the
version string to the rpm/dpkg/whatever version string, and getter reports
from end users.

This is very useful during development, because a precise version string is
embedded in the build product and displayed during boot, so we don't have to
guess answers for questions like "did I just boot the latest version or the one
from before?".
This change creates an overhead for "noop" builds. On my laptop, 'ninja -C
build' that does nothing goes from 0.1 to 0.5 s. It would be nice to avoid
this, but I think that <1 s is still acceptable.
Fixes#7183.
PACKAGE_VERSION is renamed to GIT_VERSION, to make it obvious that this is the
more dynamically changing version string.
Why save to a file? It would be easy to generate the version tag using
run_command(), but we want to go through a file so that stuff gets rebuilt when
this file changes. If we just defined an variable in meson, ninja wouldn't know
it needs to rebuild things.
New features are constantly added to networkd. Apparently, not everybody
knows that the "directives" files should be updated too to make
the fuzzers aware of them.
This GDB script was converted to use Python 3 along with all other
Python scripts in commit b95f5528cc, but still used the Python 2 print
statement syntax instead of the Python 3 print function. Fix that.
We also add the Python 2 compatibility statement, just in case some GDB
still uses Python 2 instead of Python 3.
The workaround is no longer necessary, because the scripts
checking fuzzers have stopped going down to the subdirectories
of $OUT and started to look for the string "LLVMFuzzerTestOneInput"
to tell fuzzers and random binaries apart. Some more details can be
found at https://github.com/google/oss-fuzz/issues/1566.
Add CC0 as the license. SPDX does not have a "public domain" tag, but CC0 is
more or less equivalent. We should have *some* header to avoid doubts in the
future.
These lines are generally out-of-date, incomplete and unnecessary. With
SPDX and git repository much more accurate and fine grained information
about licensing and authorship is available, hence let's drop the
per-file copyright notice. Of course, removing copyright lines of others
is problematic, hence this commit only removes my own lines and leaves
all others untouched. It might be nicer if sooner or later those could
go away too, making git the only and accurate source of authorship
information.
This part of the copyright blurb stems from the GPL use recommendations:
https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.en.html
The concept appears to originate in times where version control was per
file, instead of per tree, and was a way to glue the files together.
Ultimately, we nowadays don't live in that world anymore, and this
information is entirely useless anyway, as people are very welcome to
copy these files into any projects they like, and they shouldn't have to
change bits that are part of our copyright header for that.
hence, let's just get rid of this old cruft, and shorten our codebase a
bit.
