It is annoying when we have dead links on fd.o. Add project='man-pages|die-net|archlinux' to <citerefentry>-ies. In generated html, add external links to http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man, http://linux.die.net/man/, https://www.archlinux.org/. By default, pages in sections 2 and 4 go to man7, since Michael Kerrisk is the autorative source on kernel related stuff. The rest of links goes to linux.die.net, because they have the manpages. Except for the pacman stuff, since it seems to be only available from archlinux.org. Poor gummiboot gets no link, because gummitboot(8) ain't to be found on the net. According to common wisdom, that would mean that it does not exist. But I have seen Kay using it, so I know it does, and deserves to be found. Can somebody be nice and put it up somewhere?

<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para><filename>sd-id128.h</filename> provides APIs to
|
|
process and generate 128-bit ID values. The 128-bit ID
|
|
values processed and generated by these APIs are a
|
|
generalization of OSF UUIDs as defined by <ulink
|
|
url="https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4122">RFC
|
|
4122</ulink> but use a simpler string
|
|
format. These functions impose no structure on the
|
|
used IDs, much unlike OSF UUIDs or Microsoft GUIDs,
|
|
but are fully compatible with those types of IDs.

functions.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>A 128-bit ID is implemented as the following
|
|
union type:</para>
|
|
|
|
<programlisting>typedef union sd_id128 {
|
|
uint8_t bytes[16];
|
|
uint64_t qwords[2];
|
|
} sd_id128_t;</programlisting>
|
|
|
|
<para>This union type allows accessing the 128-bit ID
|
|
as 16 separate bytes or two 64-bit words. It is generally
|
|
safer to access the ID components by their 8-bit array
|
|
to avoid endianness issues. This union is intended to
|
|
be passed call-by-value (as opposed to
|
|
call-by-reference) and may be directly manipulated by
|
|
clients.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>A couple of macros are defined to denote and
|
|
decode 128-bit IDs:</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>SD_ID128_MAKE()</function> may be used
|
|
to denote a constant 128-bit ID in source code. A
|
|
commonly used idiom is to assign a name to a 128-bit
|
|
ID using this macro:</para>
|
|
|
|
<programlisting>#define SD_MESSAGE_COREDUMP SD_ID128_MAKE(fc,2e,22,bc,6e,e6,47,b6,b9,07,29,ab,34,a2,50,b1)</programlisting>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>SD_ID128_CONST_STR()</function> may be
|
|
used to convert constant 128-bit IDs into constant
|
|
strings for output. The following example code will
|
|
output the string
|
|
"fc2e22bc6ee647b6b90729ab34a250b1":</para>
|
|
<programlisting>int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
|
|
puts(SD_ID128_CONST_STR(SD_MESSAGE_COREDUMP));
|
|
}</programlisting>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>SD_ID128_FORMAT_STR</function> and
|
|
<function>SD_ID128_FORMAT_VAL()</function> may be used
|
|
to format a 128-bit ID in a
|
|
<citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>printf</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
format string, as shown in the following
|
|
example:</para>
|
|
|
|
<programlisting>int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
|
|
sd_id128_t id;
|
|
id = SD_ID128_MAKE(ee,89,be,71,bd,6e,43,d6,91,e6,c5,5d,eb,03,02,07);
|
|
printf("The ID encoded in this C file is " SD_ID128_FORMAT_STR ".\n", SD_ID128_FORMAT_VAL(id));
|
|
return 0;
|
|
}</programlisting>
|
|
|
|
<para>Use <function>sd_id128_equal()</function> to compare two 128-bit IDs:</para>
|
|
|
|
<programlisting>int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
|
|
sd_id128_t a, b, c;
|
|
a = SD_ID128_MAKE(ee,89,be,71,bd,6e,43,d6,91,e6,c5,5d,eb,03,02,07);
|
|
b = SD_ID128_MAKE(f2,28,88,9c,5f,09,44,15,9d,d7,04,77,58,cb,e7,3e);
|
|
c = a;
|
|
assert(sd_id128_equal(a, c));
|
|
assert(!sd_id128_equal(a, b));
|
|
return 0;
|
|
}</programlisting>
|
|
|
|
<para>Note that new, randomized IDs may be generated
|
|
with
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>journalctl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>'s
|
|
<option>--new-id</option> option.</para>
