Found using linkchecker. For virtiofsd, the man page is maintained upstream, but doesn't seem to be available in any of the usual places. So let's link to the Debian version. systemd.filter I have no idea what it is.

<title>Description</title>
|
||
|
||
<para><command>systemd-dissect</command> is a tool for introspecting and interacting with file system OS
|
||
disk images, specifically Discoverable Disk Images (DDIs). It supports four different operations:</para>
|
||
|
||
<orderedlist>
|
||
<listitem><para>Show general OS image information, including the image's
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>os-release</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry> data,
|
||
machine ID, partition information and more.</para></listitem>
|
||
|
||
<listitem><para>Mount an OS image to a local directory. In this mode it will dissect the OS image and
|
||
mount the included partitions according to their designation onto a directory and possibly
|
||
sub-directories.</para></listitem>
|
||
|
||
<listitem><para>Unmount an OS image from a local directory. In this mode it will recursively unmount
|
||
the mounted partitions and remove the underlying loop device, including all the partition sub-devices.
|
||
</para></listitem>
|
||
|
||
<listitem><para>Copy files and directories in and out of an OS image.</para></listitem>
|
||
</orderedlist>
|
||
|
||
<para>The tool may operate on three types of OS images:</para>
|
||
|
||
<orderedlist>
|
||
<listitem><para>OS disk images containing a GPT partition table envelope, with partitions marked
|
||
according to the <ulink url="https://uapi-group.org/specifications/specs/discoverable_partitions_specification">Discoverable Partitions
|
||
Specification</ulink>.</para></listitem>
|
||
|
||
<listitem><para>OS disk images containing just a plain file-system without an enveloping partition
|
||
table. (This file system is assumed to be the root file system of the OS.)</para></listitem>
|
||
|
||
<listitem><para>OS disk images containing a GPT or MBR partition table, with a single
|
||
partition only. (This partition is assumed to contain the root file system of the OS.)</para></listitem>
|
||
</orderedlist>
|
||
|
||
<para>OS images may use any kind of Linux-supported file systems. In addition they may make use of LUKS
|
||
disk encryption, and contain Verity integrity information. Note that qualifying OS images may be booted
|
||
with <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-nspawn</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>'s
|
||
<option>--image=</option> switch, and be used as root file system for system service using the
|
||
<varname>RootImage=</varname> unit file setting, see
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.exec</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>Note that the partition table shown when invoked without command switch (as listed below) does not
|
||
necessarily show all partitions included in the image, but just the partitions that are understood and
|
||
considered part of an OS disk image. Specifically, partitions of unknown types are ignored, as well as
|
||
duplicate partitions (i.e. more than one per partition type), as are root and <filename>/usr/</filename>
|
||
partitions of architectures not compatible with the local system. In other words: this tool will display
|
||
what it operates with when mounting the image. To display the complete list of partitions use a tool such
|
||
as <citerefentry
|
||
project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>fdisk</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>The <command>systemd-dissect</command> command may be invoked as <command>mount.ddi</command> in
|
||
which case it implements the <citerefentry
|
||
project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>mount</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> "external
|
||
helper" interface. This ensures disk images compatible with <command>systemd-dissect</command> can be
|
||
mounted directly by <command>mount</command> and <citerefentry
|
||
project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>fstab</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>. For
|
||
details see below.</para>

|
||
<title>Commands</title>
|
||
|
||
<para>If neither of the command switches listed below are passed the specified disk image is opened and
|
||
general information about the image and the contained partitions and their use is shown.</para>

<term><option>--mount</option></term>

<term><option>-m</option></term>
|

|
||
<listitem><para>Mount the specified OS image to the specified directory. This will dissect the image,
|

determine the OS root file system — as well as possibly other partitions — and mount them to the

|
||
url="https://uapi-group.org/specifications/specs/discoverable_partitions_specification">Discoverable Partitions Specification</ulink>
|

multiple nested mounts are established. This command expects two arguments: a path to an image file
|

and a path to a directory where to mount the image.</para>

<para>To unmount an OS image mounted like this use the <option>--umount</option> operation.</para>

<para>The OS image may either be specified as path to an OS image stored in a regular file or may

refer to block device node (in the latter case, the block device must be the "whole" device, i.e. not
|
||
a partition device). (The other supported commands described here support this, too.)</para>

<para>All mounted file systems are checked with the appropriate <citerefentry

unlike all other commands implemented by this tool – requires no privileges other than the ability to
