sd-login: always return two arrays of same length from sd_seat_get_sessions sd_seat_get_sessions returns two arrays, that in principle should always match: the session names and corresponding uids. The second array could be shorter only if parsing or uid conversion fails. But in that case there is no way to tell *which* uid is wrong, so they are *all* useless. It's better to simplify things and just return an error if parsing fails.
Prep v231: Update man pages to include upstream changes
Prep v229: Update man pages (fix most inappropriate stuff. Still lots to do...)
man: fix typos
sd-login: rework error handling Makre sure we always return sensible errors for the various, following the same rules, and document them in a comment in sd-login.c. Also, update all relevant man pages accordingly.
Prep v222: Update build system: - The content of the man pages directory has been overhauled - Makefile-man.am was regenerated - Makefile.am and configure.ac needed a few addtitions and fixes - Some masked functions had to be unmasked - Now superfluous files have been removed
man: revert dynamic paths for split-usr setups This did not really work out as we had hoped. Trying to do this upstream introduced several problems that probably makes it better suited as a downstream patch after all. At any rate, it is not releaseable in the current state, so we at least need to revert this before the release. * by adjusting the path to binaries, but not do the same thing to the search path we end up with inconsistent man-pages. Adjusting the search path too would be quite messy, and it is not at all obvious that this is worth the effort, but at any rate it would have to be done before we could ship this. * this means that distributed man-pages does not make sense as they depend on config options, and for better or worse we are still distributing man pages, so that is something that definitely needs sorting out before we could ship with this patch. * we have long held that split-usr is only minimally supported in order to boot, and something we hope will eventually go away. So before we start adding even more magic/effort in order to make this work nicely, we should probably question if it makes sense at all.
man: generate configured paths in manpages In particular, use /lib/systemd instead of /usr/lib/systemd in distributions like Debian which still have not adopted a /usr merge setup. Use XML entities from man/custom-entities.ent to replace configured paths while doing XSLT processing of the original XML files. There was precedent of some files (such as systemd.generator.xml) which were already using this approach. This addresses most of the (manual) fixes from this patch: http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-systemd/systemd.git/tree/debian/patches/Fix-paths-in-man-pages.patch?h=experimental-220 The idea of using generic XML entities was presented here: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2015-May/032240.html This patch solves almost all the issues, with the exception of: - Path to /bin/mount and /bin/umount. - Generic statements about preference of /lib over /etc. These will be handled separately by follow up patches. Tested: - With default configure settings, ran "make install" to two separate directories and compared the output to confirm they matched exactly. - Used a set of configure flags including $CONFFLAGS from Debian: http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-systemd/systemd.git/tree/debian/rules Installed the tree and confirmed the paths use /lib/systemd instead of /usr/lib/systemd and that no other unexpected differences exist. - Confirmed that `make distcheck` still passes.

man: add a mapping for external manpages 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?
doc: balance C indirections in function prototypes Shift the asterisks in the documentation's prototypes such that they are consistent among each other. Use the right side to match what is used in source code. Addendum to commit v209~82.
man: fix references to .pc files which aren't separate anymore
man: improvements to comma placement This is a recurring submission and includes corrections to: comma placement.
man: resolve word omissions This is a recurring submission and includes corrections to: word omissions and word class choice.
man: add docs for sd_is_special() and some man page symlinks
man: wording and grammar updates This is a recurring submission and includes corrections to various issue spotted. I guess I can just skip over reporting ubiquitous comma placement fixes… Highligts in this particular commit: - the "unsigned" type qualifier is completed to form a full type "unsigned int" - alphabetic -> lexicographic (that way we automatically define how numbers get sorted)
man: add more formatting markup
