+Running Knot Resolver under systemd (or equivalent) socket activation
+=====================================================================
+
+You can use the files in this directory to run kresd under supervision
+by systemd (or any supervisor that provides equivalent file descriptor
+initialization via the interface supported by
+sd_listen_fds_with_names(3)).
+
+Usage and Configuration
+-----------------------
+
+See kresd.systemd(7) for details.
+
+Compatibility with older systemd
+--------------------------------
+
+If you're using systemd prior to version 227, use the systemd-compat.conf
+drop-in file to use manual activation. In this case, socket files shouldn't
+be packaged, because they won't be used.
+
+Notes
+-----
+
+* If you're using the upstream systemd unit files, don't forget to also include
+ kresd.systemd.7 manual page in the package.
+* Distributions using systemd-sysv-generator should mask kresd.service to
+ be consistent with other distributions. Any use of kresd.service instead of
+ kresd@N.service is discouraged to avoid confusing the users.
+* kresd.target should be enabled by default by linking it to systemd lib/
+ directory. Instances of kresd@.service are then added manually to
+ kresd.target when the user enables them.
