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>Entries in the journal resemble an environment
|
|
block in their syntax but with fields that can
|
|
include binary data. Primarily, fields are formatted
|
|
UTF-8 text strings, and binary formatting is used only
|
|
where formatting as UTF-8 text strings makes little
|
|
sense. New fields may freely be defined by
|
|
applications, but a few fields have special
|
|
meaning. All fields with special meanings are
|
|
optional. In some cases, fields may appear more than
|
|
once per entry.</para>

the primary text shown to the

<para>A 128-bit message

identifier ID for recognizing

certain message types, if this

contain a 128-bit ID formatted

as a lower-case hexadecimal

string, without any separating

dashes or suchlike. This is

recommended to be a

UUID-compatible ID, but this is not

enforced, and formatted
|
|
differently. Developers can

generate a new ID for this

purpose with <command>journalctl

JSON Format</ulink>, the addresses of journal entries
|
|
are serialized into fields prefixed with double
|
|
underscores. Note that these are not proper fields when
|
|
stored in the journal but for addressing metadata of
|
|
entries. They cannot be written as part of structured
|
|
log entries via calls such as
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_send</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>. They
|
|
may also not be used as matches for
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_add_match</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry></para>

<para>The cursor for the

entry. A cursor is an opaque

text string that uniquely
|

describes the position of an

|
entry in the journal and is
|
|
portable across machines,
|
|
platforms and journal files.

at the point in time the entry

properties from

<literal>_SOURCE_REALTIME_TIMESTAMP=</literal>,

but more likely to be monotonic.
