So it would appear that what's needed is a reference
from man fstab to a man systemd.fstab (newly written),
particularly in view of statements like "If a swap device or
file is configured in both /etc/fstab and a unit file, the
configuration in the latter takes precedence"¹.
But, in the absence of that, careful perusal of all of
man systemd-fstab-generator
man systemd-fsck
man systemd-remount-fs
man systemd.mount
man systemd.swap (source of ¹)
is advisable. It doesn't really make sense to read man.fsck
without systemd-fstab-generator and systemd-fsck open at the
same time because the latter two directly contradict what's
written in the first. Perhaps man fsck etc should really
be invoked as man sysv-fsck etc.
Cheers,
David.
