Docbook styles required those to be present, even though the templates that we use did not show those names anywhere. But something changed semi-recently (I would suspect docbook templates, but there was only a minor version bump in recent years, and the changelog does not suggest anything related), and builds now work without those entries. Let's drop this dead weight. Tested with F26-F29, debian unstable. $ perl -i -0pe 's/\s*<authorgroup>.*<.authorgroup>//gms' man/*xml

<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_journal_get_cursor()</function> returns a
|
|
cursor string for the current journal entry. A cursor is a
|
|
serialization of the current journal position formatted as text.
|
|
The string only contains printable characters and can be passed
|
|
around in text form. The cursor identifies a journal entry
|
|
globally and in a stable way and may be used to later seek to it
|
|
via
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_seek_cursor</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
|
|
The cursor string should be considered opaque and not be parsed by
|
|
clients. Seeking to a cursor position without the specific entry
|
|
being available locally will seek to the next closest (in terms of
|
|
time) available entry. The call takes two arguments: a journal
|
|
context object and a pointer to a string pointer where the cursor
|
|
string will be placed. The string is allocated via libc
|
|
<citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>malloc</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
and should be freed after use with
|
|
<citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>free</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Note that <function>sd_journal_get_cursor()</function> will
|
|
not work before
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_next</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
(or related call) has been called at least once, in order to
|
|
position the read pointer at a valid entry.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_journal_test_cursor()</function>
|
|
may be used to check whether the current position in
|
|
the journal matches the specified cursor. This is
|
|
useful since cursor strings do not uniquely identify
|
|
an entry: the same entry might be referred to by
|
|
multiple different cursor strings, and hence string
|
|
comparing cursors is not possible. Use this call to
|
|
verify after an invocation of
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_seek_cursor</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
whether the entry being sought to was actually found
|
|
in the journal or the next closest entry was used
|
|
instead.</para>

<title>Return Value</title>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_journal_get_cursor()</function> returns 0 on
|
|
success or a negative errno-style error code.
|
|
<function>sd_journal_test_cursor()</function> returns positive if
|
|
the current entry matches the specified cursor, 0 if it does not
|
|
match the specified cursor or a negative errno-style error code on
|
|
failure.</para>
