This minimal HTTP server can serve journal data via HTTP. Its primary
purpose is synchronization of journal data across the network. It serves
journal data in three formats:
text/plain: the text format known from /var/log/messages
application/json: the journal entries formatted as JSON
application/vnd.fdo.journal: the binary export format of the journal
The HTTP server also serves a small HTML5 app that makes use of the JSON
serialization to present the journal data to the user.
Examples:
This downloads the journal in text format:
# systemctl start systemd-journal-gatewayd.service
# wget http://localhost:19531/entries
Same for JSON:
# curl -H"Accept: application/json" http://localhost:19531/entries
Access via web browser:
$ firefox http://localhost:19531/
It is no longer possible to manually enable systemd-udev-settle.service,
so its only use is by legacy services explicitly pulling it in. It makes
sense for these services to also explicitly order themselves after
udev-settle.service, which makes After=basic.target redundant.
This should reduce the negative effect on boot-time of having to enable
legacy services such as lvm.service.
It's time to get rid of prefdm. Distributions which still want to use
this should maintain this downstream, but it's probably better to just
provide proper units for the various display managers, like Fedora is
doing this, for example:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/DisplayManagerRework
For 'modules-load=' and 'rd.modules-load=' to be effective,
systemd-modules-load.service must be started. It is currently
conditional on the existence of config files. Add the presence of the
cmdline parameters to the triggering conditions.
all other dependencies are in 3rd person. Change BindTo= accordingly to
BindsTo=.
Of course, the dependency is widely used, hence we parse the old name
too for compatibility.
The old automatism that the flushing of the journal from /run to /var
was triggered by the appearance of /var/log/journal is broken if that
directory is mounted from another host and hence always available to be
useful as mount point. To avoid probelsm with this, introduce a new unit
that is explicitly orderer after all mounte files systems and triggers
the flushing.
The MeeGo distribution is still a supported distribution, but
will probably not see an updated version of systemd anymore.
Most of the development is focussing on Tizen now, and the
generic support for building --with-distro=other is more than
adequate enough.
This patch removes the support as a custom configuration build
target in systemd. People who are still building this for
the MeeGo distribution should build as "other" distro.
This naming convention is more inline with other systemd daemon
unit names (systemd-logind.service, systemd-localed.service etc)
The companion .socket units have also been renamed, however the
-trigger and -settle units keep their current name as these are
not directly related to daemon process itself.
The previous systemd-timedated-ntp.target was suffering by the problem
that NTP implementations enabled via the machanism could not be disabled
the obvious way on the "systemctl disable" command line. Replace
systemd-timedated-ntp.target by a list of implementations we try in
turn. The list is encoded in $pkgdatadir/ntp-units.
This replaces the symlink based dependency by an explicit one in the
unit file so that we avoid the dangling symlink when no display manager
is installed.
The rule is that units that encapsulate our own code are prefixed with
"systemd-". Since the fsck units invoke our own code, hence add the
missing prefix. Since a long long time the fsck units didn't invoke the
naked fsck binaries anymore, and it is unlikely that this well ever
change. On the opposite: the code in systemd-fsck will probably get more
complex over time to handle fsck progress to plymouth forwarding.
Same for quotacheck (but not quotaon!)
Since the binary name is now hidden away in /usr/lib/ the primary user
handle for the udev service is the unit name, hence change the man page
to be available under the unit name, and make the binary name an alias
for it.
since the binaries share much of the same code and we better load only
one binary instead of two from disk at early boot let's merge the three
readahead binaries into one. This also allows us to drop a lot of
duplicated code.
