* look: slice up the usage text for ease of translationBenno Schulenberg2015-01-061-8/+9
| | | | | | | Also use the standard macros, and correct the synopsis: use angular brackets and show that look accepts multiple files. Signed-off-by: Benno Schulenberg <bensberg@justemail.net>

* textual: add a docstring to most of the utilitiesBenno Schulenberg2015-01-0615-0/+51
| | | | | | | | | This adds a concise description of a tool to its usage text. A first form of this patch was proposed by Steven Honeyman (see http://www.spinics.net/lists/util-linux-ng/msg09994.html). Signed-off-by: Benno Schulenberg <bensberg@justemail.net>

* docs: adjust the grammar, text, sorting and formatting of logger man pageBenno Schulenberg2014-12-191-142/+116Star
| | | | | | | | | | The message argument is not an option and should not be listed among those. Describe the optional argument of --rfc5424 better. Use the = and no space for optional option arguments. Don't italicize words unnecessarily. Use bold for literal things. And sort the options alphabetically (apart from -V and -h). Signed-off-by: Benno Schulenberg <bensberg@justemail.net>
* docs: don't use bold or italics for "[option]" in synopsis of man pagesBenno Schulenberg2014-12-1912-20/+25

| | | | | | | | | Terminating the ctl->long_options list once when adding options is completed is enough. This also allows moving ctl->long_options_nr increment to more appropriate location. CC: Frodo Looijaard <frodo@frodo.looijaard.name> Signed-off-by: Sami Kerola <kerolasa@iki.fi>

* getopt: remove function prototypesSami Kerola2014-12-081-10/+0Star
| | | | | | | | Functions are in right order so they do not need prototypes, with effect of not needing to keep function argument changes in sync in two locations. CC: Frodo Looijaard <frodo@frodo.looijaard.name> Signed-off-by: Sami Kerola <kerolasa@iki.fi>

* libblkid: care about unsafe chars in cacheKarel Zak2014-11-272-3/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The high-level libblkid API uses /run/blkid/blkid.tab cache to store probing results. The cache format is <device NAME="value" ...>devname</device> and unfortunately the cache code does not escape quotation marks: # mkfs.ext4 -L 'AAA"BBB' # cat /run/blkid/blkid.tab ... <device ... LABEL="AAA"BBB" ...>/dev/sdb1</device> such string is later incorrectly parsed and blkid(8) returns nonsenses. And for use-cases like # eval $(blkid -o export /dev/sdb1) it's also insecure. Note that mount, udevd and blkid -p are based on low-level libblkid API, it bypass the cache and directly read data from the devices. The current udevd upstream does not depend on blkid(8) output at all, it's directly linked with the library and all unsafe chars are encoded by \x<hex> notation. # mkfs.ext4 -L 'X"`/tmp/foo` "' /dev/sdb1 # udevadm info --export-db | grep LABEL ...

* whereis: reset search mask more carefullyKarel Zak2014-10-232-17/+45

That's bug. Expected result is: # ./whereis -m cal -M /usr/share/man/man1/ -f ls cal: /usr/share/man/man1/cal.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1p/cal.1p.gz ls: /usr/share/man/man1/ls.1.gz the search mask has to be sensitive only to -b -m -s options, otherwise the semantic is pretty messy.

| | | | | | | | | | | There is no obvious way to make syslog(3) to print both pid or ppid, so duplicate the libc syslog() to logger. Making the ppid printing work using unix socket has side effect of local becoming capable to use both rfc format output, which is hopefully seen as good thing.
