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.

<listitem>
|
|
<para>This parameter controls whether the system shall boot up in volatile mode. Takes a boolean argument, or
|
|
the special values <literal>state</literal> or <literal>overlay</literal>. If false (the default), normal boot
|
|
mode is selected, the root directory and <filename>/var/</filename> are mounted as specified on the kernel
|
|
command line or <filename>/etc/fstab</filename>, or otherwise configured. If true, full state-less boot mode
|
|
is selected. In this case, the root directory is mounted as volatile memory file system (<literal>tmpfs</literal>),
|
|
and only <filename>/usr/</filename> is mounted from the file system configured as root device, in read-only mode.
|
|
This enables fully state-less boots were the vendor-supplied OS is used as shipped, with only default
|
|
configuration and no stored state in effect, as <filename>/etc/</filename> and <filename>/var/</filename> (as
|
|
well as all other resources shipped in the root file system) are reset at boot and lost on shutdown. If this
|
|
setting is set to <literal>state</literal> the root file system is mounted read-only, however
|
|
<filename>/var/</filename> is mounted as a volatile memory file system (<literal>tmpfs</literal>), so that the
|
|
system boots up with the normal configuration applied, but all state reset at boot and lost at shutdown. If
|
|
this setting is set to <literal>overlay</literal> the root file system is set up as
|
|
<literal>overlayfs</literal> mount combining the read-only root directory with a writable
|
|
<literal>tmpfs</literal>, so that no modifications are made to disk, but the file system may be modified
|
|
nonetheless with all changes being lost at reboot. For details, see
