 _So you are seeing all kinds of weird file systems in the output of mount(8) that are not listed in `/etc/fstab`, and you wonder what those are, how you can get rid of them, or at least change their mount options._
 
-The Linux kernel provides a number of different ways for userspace to communicate with it. For many facilities there are system calls, others are hidden behind Netlink interfaces, and even others are exposed via virtual file systems such as `/proc` or `/sys`. These file systems are programming interfaces, they are not actually backed by real, persistent storage. They simply use the file system interface of the kernel as interface to various unrelated mechanisms. Similarly, there are file systems that userspace uses for its own API purposes, to store shared memory segments, shared temporary files or sockets. In this article we want to discuss all these kind of _API file systems_. More specifically, here's a list of these file systems typical Linux systems currently have:

-All these _API file systems_ are mounted during very early boot-up of systemd and are generally not listed in `/etc/fstab`. Depending on the used kernel configuration some of these API file systems might not be available and others might exist instead. As these interfaces are important for kernel-to-userspace and userspace-to-userspace communication they are mounted automatically and without configuration or interference by the user. Disabling or changing their parameters might hence result in applications breaking as they can no longer access the interfaces they need.

 Even though the default settings of these file systems should normally be suitable for most setups, in some cases it might make sense to change the mount options, or possibly even disable some of these file systems.
 
-Even though normally none of these API file systems are listed in `/etc/fstab` they may be added there. If so, any options specified therein will be applied to that specific API file system. Hence: to alter the mount options or other parameters of these file systems, simply add them to `/etc/fstab` with the appropriate settings and you are done. Using this technique it is possible to change the source, type of a file system in addition to simply changing mount options. That is useful to turn `/tmp` to a true file system backed by a physical disk.

 ## Why are you telling me all this? I just want to get rid of the tmpfs backed /tmp!
 
 You have three options:
 
-1. Disable any mounting on `/tmp` so that it resides on the same physical file system as the root directory. For that, execute `systemctl mask tmp.mount`
-2. Mount a different, physical file system to `/tmp`. For that, simply create an entry for it in `/etc/fstab` as you would do for any other file system.
-3. Keep `/tmp` but increase/decrease the size of it. For that, also just create an entry for it in `/etc/fstab` as you would do for any other `tmpfs` file system, and use the right `size=` option.

 ### Shared Code
 
-The code that is shared between components is split into a few directories,
-each with a different purpose:
-
-- `src/basic/` and `src/fundamental/` — those directories contain code
-  primitives that are used by all other code. `src/fundamental/` is stricter,
-  because it used for EFI and user-space code, while `src/basic/` is only used
-  for user-space code. The code in `src/fundamental/` cannot depend on any
-  other code in the tree, and `src/basic/` can depend only on itself and
-  `src/fundamental/`. For user-space, a static library is built from this code
-  and linked statically in various places.
-
-- `src/libsystemd/` implements the `libsystemd.so` shared library (also
-  available as static `libsystemd.a`). This code may use anything in
-  `src/basic/` or `src/fundamental/`.
-
-- `src/shared/` provides various utilities and code shared between other
-  components that is exposed as the `libsystemd-shared-<nnn>.so` shared library.
-
-The other subdirectories implement individual components. They may depend only
-on `src/fundamental/` + `src/basic/`, or also on `src/libsystemd/`, or also on
-`src/shared/`.
-
-You might wonder what kind of code belongs where. In general, the rule is that
-code should be linked as few times as possible, ideally only once. Thus code that
-is used by "higher-level" components (e.g. our binaries which are linked to
-`libsystemd-shared-<nnn>.so`), would go to a subdirectory specific to that
-component if it is only used there. If the code is to be shared between
-components, it'd go to `src/shared/`. Shared code that is used by multiple
-components that do not link to `libsystemd-shared-<nnn>.so` may live either in
-`src/libsystemd/`, `src/basic/`, or `src/fundamental/`. Any code that is used
-only for EFI goes under `src/boot/efi/`, and `src/fundamental/` if is shared
-with non-EFI compoenents.

-should be located next to the code they test.
-
-Files under `test/fuzz/` contain input data for fuzzers, one subdirectory for
-each fuzzer. Some of the files are "seed corpora", i.e. files that contain
-lists of settings and input values intended to generate initial coverage, and
-other files are samples saved by the fuzzing engines when they find an issue.

-When adding new input samples under `test/fuzz/*/`, please use some
-short-but-meaningful names. Names of meson tests include the input file name
-and output looks awkward if they are too long.

-Fuzzers are invoked primarily in three ways: firstly, each fuzzer is compiled
-as a normal executable and executed for each of the input samples under
-`test/fuzz/` as part of the test suite. Secondly, fuzzers may be instrumented
-with sanitizers and invoked as part of the test suite (if `-Dfuzz-tests=true`
-is configured). Thirdly, fuzzers are executed through fuzzing engines that try
-to find new "interesting" inputs through coverage feedback and massive
-parallelization; see the links for oss-fuzz in [Code quality](CODE_QUALITY).
-For testing and debugging, fuzzers can be executed as any other program,
-including under `valgrind` or `gdb`.

 # Service Manager Overview
 
-The Service Manager takes configuration in the form of unit files, credentials,
-kernel command line options and D-Bus commands, and based on those manages the
-system and spawns other processes. It runs in system mode as PID1, and in user
-mode with one instance per user session.
-
-When starting a unit requires forking a new process, configuration for the new
-process will be serialized and passed over to the new process, created via a
-posix_spawn() call. This is done in order to avoid excessive processing after
-a fork() but before an exec(), which is against glibc's best practices and can
-also result in a copy-on-write trap. The new process will start as the
-`systemd-executor` binary, which will deserialize the configuration and apply
-all the options (sandboxing, namespacing, cgroup, etc.) before exec'ing the
-configured executable.

-Starting with version 205 systemd provides a number of interfaces that may be used to create and manage labelled groups of processes for the purpose of monitoring and controlling them and their resource usage. This is built on top of the Linux kernel Control Groups ("cgroups") facility. Previously, the kernel's cgroups API was exposed directly as shared application API, following the rules of the [Pax Control Groups](http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/PaxControlGroups/) document. However, the kernel cgroup interface has been reworked into an API that requires that each individual cgroup is managed by a single writer only. With this change the main cgroup tree becomes private property of that userspace component and is no longer a shared resource. On systemd systems PID 1 takes this role and hence needs to provide APIs for clients to take benefit of the control groups functionality of the kernel. Note that services running on systemd systems may manage their own subtrees of the cgroups tree, as long as they explicitly turn on delegation mode for them (see below).

 That means explicitly, that:
 
 1. The root control group may only be written to by systemd (PID 1). Services that create and manipulate control groups in the top level cgroup are in direct conflict with the kernel's requirement that each control group should have a single-writer only.
 2. Services must set Delegate=yes for the units they intend to manage subcgroups of. If they create and manipulate cgroups outside of units that have Delegate=yes set, they violate the access contract for control groups.

 ### Creating and Starting
 
-To create and start a transient (scope, service or slice) unit in the cgroup tree use the `StartTransientUnit()` method on the `Manager` object exposed by systemd's PID 1 on the bus, see the [Bus API Documentation](http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/dbus/) for details. This call takes four arguments. The first argument is the full unit name you want this unit to be known under. This unit name is the handle to the unit, and is shown in the "systemctl" output and elsewhere. This name must be unique during runtime of the unit. You should generate a descriptive name for this that is useful for the administrator to make sense of it. The second parameter is the mode, and should usually be `replace` or `fail`. The third parameter contains an array of initial properties to set for the unit. It is an array of pairs of property names as string and values as variant. Note that this is an array and not a dictionary! This is that way in order to match the properties array of the `SetProperties()` call (see below). The fourth parameter is currently not used and should be passed as empty array. This call will first create the transient unit and then immediately queue a start job for it. This call returns an object path to a `Job` object for the start job of this unit.

 ## Storage Mechanism: `cifs` Home Directories
 
 In this storage mechanism, the home directory is mounted from a CIFS server and
-service at login, configured inside the user record. (Use `--storage=cifs` on
-the `homectl` command line.) The local password of the user is used to log into
-the CIFS service. The directory share needs to contain the user record in
-`~/.identity` as well. Note that this means that the user record needs to be
-registered locally before it can be mounted for the first time, since CIFS
-domain and server information needs to be known *before* the mount. Note that

 ## Storage Mechanism: `luks` Home Directories
 
 This is the most advanced and most secure storage mechanism and consists of a
-Linux file system inside a LUKS2 volume inside a loopback file (or on removable
-media). (Use `--storage=luks` on the `homectl` command line.)  Specifically:
-
-* The image contains a GPT partition table. For now it should only contain a
-  single partition, and that partition must have the type UUID
-  `773f91ef-66d4-49b5-bd83-d683bf40ad16`. Its partition label must be the
-  user name.
-
-* This partition must contain a LUKS2 volume, whose label must be the user
-  name. The LUKS2 volume must contain a LUKS2 token field of type
-  `systemd-homed`. The JSON data of this token must have a `record` field,
-  containing a string with base64-encoded data. This data is the JSON user
-  record, in the same serialization as in `~/.identity`, though encrypted. The
-  JSON data of this token must also have an `iv` field, which contains a
-  base64-encoded binary initialization vector for the encryption. The
-  encryption used is the same as the LUKS2 volume itself uses, unlocked by the
+Linux file system inside a LUKS2 volume inside a loopback file (or on removable media).

 Rationale for including the encrypted user record in the LUKS2 header:
 Linux kernel file system implementations are generally not robust towards
 maliciously formatted file systems; there's a good chance that file system
-images can be used as attack vectors, exploiting the kernel. Thus it is
-necessary to validate the home directory image *before* mounting it and
-establishing a minimal level of trust. Since the user record data is
-cryptographically signed and user records not signed with a recognized private
-key are not accepted, a minimal level of trust between the system and the home
-directory image is established.

 ## Algorithm
 
 Regardless of the storage mechanism used, an activated home directory
-necessarily involves a mount point to be established. In case of the
-directory-based storage mechanisms (`directory`, `subvolume` and `fscrypt`)
-this is a bind mount. In case of `cifs` this is a CIFS network mount, and in
-case of the LUKS2 backend a regular block device mount of the file system
-contained in the LUKS2 image. By requiring a mount for all cases (even for
-those that already are a directory), a clear logic is defined to distinguish
-active and inactive home directories, so that the directories become
-inaccessible under their regular path the instant they are
-deactivated. Moreover, the `nosuid`, `nodev` and `noexec` flags configured in
-the user record are applied when the bind mount is established.

 # Compatibility with SysV
 
-systemd provides a fair degree of compatibility with the behavior exposed by the SysV init system as implemented by many distributions. Compatibility is provided both for the user experience and the SysV scripting APIs. However, there are some areas where compatibility is limited due to technical reasons or design decisions of systemd and the distributions. All of the following applies to SysV init scripts handled by systemd, however a number of them matter only on specific distributions. Many of the incompatibilities are specific to distribution-specific extensions of LSB/SysV init.

+Many of the incompatibilities are specific to distribution-specific extensions of LSB/SysV init.
 
 * If your distribution removes SysV init scripts in favor of systemd unit files typing "/etc/init.d/foobar start" to start a service will not work, since the script will not be available. Use the more correct "/sbin/service foobar start" instead, and your command will be forwarded to systemd. Note that invoking the init script directly has always been suboptimal since too much of the caller's execution context (environment block, umask, resource limits, audit trails, ...) ended up being inherited by the service, and invocation via "/sbin/service" used to clean this up at least partially. Invocation via /sbin/service works on both SysV and systemd systems. Also, LSB only standardizes invocation via "/sbin/service" anyway. (Note that some distributions ship both systemd unit files and SysV scripts for the services. For these invoking the init scripts will work as expected and the request be forwarded to systemd in any case.)
 * LSB header dependency information matters. The SysV implementations on many distributions did not use the dependency information encoded in LSB init script headers, or used them only in very limited ways. Due to that they are often incorrect or incomplete. systemd however fully interprets these headers and follows them closely at runtime (and not at installation time like some implementations).
 * Timeouts apply to all init script operations in systemd. While on SysV systems a hanging init script could freeze the system on systemd all init script operations are subject to a timeout of 5min.
 * Services are executed in completely clean execution contexts, no context of the invoking user session is inherited. Not even $HOME or similar are set. Init scripts depending on these will not work correctly.
-* Services cannot read from stdin, as this will be connected to /dev/null. That means interactive init scripts are not supported (i.e. Debian's X-Interactive in the LSB header is not supported either.) Thankfully most distributions do not support interaction in init scripts anyway. If you need interaction to ask disk or SSL passphrases please consider using the minimal password querying framework systemd supports. ([details](PASSWORD_AGENTS), [manual page](http://0pointer.de/public/systemd-man/systemd-ask-password.html))

 * Additional verbs for init scripts are not supported. If your init script traditionally supported additional verbs for your init script simply move them to an auxiliary script.
 * Additional parameters to the standard verbs (i.e. to "start", "stop" and "status") are not supported. This was an extension of SysV that never was standardized officially, and is not supported in systemd.
 * Overriding the "restart" verb is not supported. This verb is always implemented by systemd itself, and consists of a "stop" followed by a "start".

 In most cases the Journal JSON serialization is the obvious mapping of the entry field names (as JSON strings) to the entry field values (also as JSON strings) encapsulated in one JSON object. However, there are a few special cases to handle:
 
-* A field that contains non-printable or non-UTF8 is serialized as a number array instead. This is necessary to handle binary data in a safe way without losing data, since JSON cannot embed binary data natively. Each byte of the binary field will be mapped to its numeric value in the range 0…255.
-* The JSON serializer can optionally skip huge (as in larger than a specific threshold) data fields from the JSON object. If that is enabled and a data field is too large, the field name is still included in the JSON object but assigned _null_.
-* Within the same entry, Journal fields may have multiple values assigned. This is not allowed in JSON. The serializer will hence create a single JSON field only for these cases, and assign it an array of values (which the can be strings, _null_ or number arrays, see above).
-* If the JSON data originates from a journal file it may include the special addressing fields `__CURSOR`, `__REALTIME_TIMESTAMP`, `__MONOTONIC_TIMESTAMP`, `__SEQNUM`, `__SEQNUM_ID`, which contain the cursor string of this entry as string, the realtime/monotonic timestamps of this entry as formatted numeric string of usec since the respective epoch, and the sequence number and associated sequence number ID, both formatted as strings.

For older files [Jenkins lookup3](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jenkins_hash_function) is used, more specifically `jenkins_hashlittle2()` with the first 32-bit integer it returns as higher 32-bit part of the 64-bit value, and the second one uses as lower 32-bit part.

 * The format is designed to be read and written via memory mapping using multiple mapped windows.

 * Wall clock time values are relative to the Unix time epoch, i.e. January 1st, 1970. (`CLOCK_REALTIME`)
-* Monotonic time values are always stored jointly with the kernel boot ID value (i.e. `/proc/sys/kernel/random/boot_id`) they belong to. They tend to be relative to the start of the boot, but aren't for containers. (`CLOCK_MONOTONIC`)

 # My Service Can't Get Realtime!
 
-_So, you have a service that requires real-time scheduling. When you run this service on your systemd system it is unable to acquire real-time scheduling, even though it is full root and has all possible privileges. And now you are wondering what is going on and what you can do about it?_
+_So, you have a service that requires real-time scheduling.
+When you run this service on your systemd system it is unable to acquire real-time scheduling,
+even though it is full root and has all possible privileges.
+And now you are wondering what is going on and what you can do about it?_
 
 ## What is Going on?
 
-By default systemd places all system services into their own control groups in the "cpu" hierarchy. This has the benefit that the CPU usage of services with many worker threads or processes (think: Apache with all its gazillion CGIs and stuff) gets roughly the same amount of CPU as a service with very few worker threads (think: MySQL). Instead of evening out CPU _per process_ this will cause CPU to be evened out _per service_.
-
-Now, the "cpu" cgroup controller of the Linux kernel has one major shortcoming: if a cgroup is created it needs an explicit, absolute RT time budget assigned, or otherwise RT is not available to any process in the group, and an attempt to acquire it will fail with EPERM. systemd will not assign any RT time budgets to the "cpu" cgroups it creates, simply because there is no feasible way to do that, since the budget needs to be specified in absolute time units and comes from a fixed pool. Or in other words: we'd love to assign a budget, but there are no sane values we could use. Thus, in its default configuration RT scheduling is simply not available for any system services.

+Thus, in its default configuration RT scheduling is simply not available for any system services.
 
 ## Working Around the Issue
 
 Of course, that's quite a limitation, so here's how you work around this:
 
-* One option is to simply globally turn off that systemd creates a "cpu" cgroup for each of the system services. For that, edit `/etc/systemd/system.conf` and set `DefaultControllers=` to the empty string, then reboot. (An alternative is to disable the "cpu" controller in your kernel, entirely. systemd will not attempt to make use of controllers that aren't available in the kernel.)
-* Another option is to turn this off for the specific service only. For that, edit your service file, and add `ControlGroup=cpu:/` to its `[Service]` section. This overrides the default logic for this one service only, and places all its processes back in the root cgroup of the "cpu" hierarchy, which has the full RT budget assigned.
-* A third option is to simply assign your service a realtime budget. For that use `ControlGroupAttribute=cpu.rt_runtime_us 500000` in its `[Service]` or suchlike. See [the kernel documentation](http://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/scheduler/sched-design-CFS.txt) for details. The latter two options are not available for System V services. A possible solution is to write a small wrapper service file that simply calls the SysV script's start verb in `ExecStart=` and the stop verb in `ExecStop=`. (It also needs to set `RemainAfterExit=1` and `Type=forking`!)

-In the long run we hope that the kernel is fixed to not require an RT budget to be assigned for any cgroup created before a process can acquire RT (i.e. a process' RT budget should be derived from the nearest ancestor cgroup which has a budget assigned, rather than unconditionally its own uninitialized budget.)

 _So you are working on a Linux distribution or appliance and need very fast boot-ups?_
 
-systemd can already offer boot times of < 1s for the Core OS (userspace only, i.e. only the bits controlled by systemd) and < 2s for a complete up-to-date desktop environments on simpler (but modern, i.e. SSDs) laptops if configured properly (examples: [http://git.fenrus.org/tmp/bootchart-20120512-1036.svg](http://git.fenrus.org/tmp/bootchart-20120512-1036.svg)). In this page we want to suggest a couple of ideas how to achieve that, and if the resulting boot times do not suffice where we believe room for improvements are that we'd like to see implemented sooner or later. If you are interested in investing engineering manpower in systemd to get to even shorter boot times, this list hopefully includes a few good suggestions to start with.

 Of course, before optimizing you should instrument the boot to generate profiling data, so make sure you know your way around with systemd-bootchart, systemd-analyze and pytimechart! Optimizations without profiling are premature optimizations!
 
-Note that systemd's fast performance is a side effect of its design but wasn't the primary design goal. As it stands now systemd (and Fedora using it) has been optimized very little and still has a lot of room for improvements. There are still many low hanging fruits to pick!

-We are very interested in merging optimization work into systemd upstream. Note however that we are careful not to merge work that would drastically limit the general purpose usefulness or reliability of our code, or that would make systemd harder to maintain. So in case you work on optimizations for systemd, try to keep your stuff mainlineable. If in doubt, ask us.

+For better performance consider disabling these scripts, or using a different distribution.
 It is our intention to optimize the upstream distributions by default (in particular Fedora) so that these optimizations won't be necessary. However, this will take some time, especially since making these changes is often not trivial when the general purpose usefulness cannot be compromised.
 
 What you can optimize (locally) without writing any code:
 
-1. Make sure not to use any fake block device storage technology such as LVM (as installed by default by various distributions, including Fedora) they result in the systemd-udev-settle.service unit to be pulled in. Settling device enumeration is slow, racy and mostly obsolete. Since LVM (still) hasn't been updated to handle Linux' event based design properly, settling device enumeration is still required for it, but it will slow down boot substantially. On Fedora, use "systemctl mask fedora-wait-storage.service fedora-storage-init-late.service fedora-storage-init.service" to get rid of all those storage technologies. Of course, don't try this if you actually installed your system with LVM. (The only fake block device storage technology that currently handles this all properly and doesn't require settling device enumerations is LUKS disk encryption.)
-2. Consider bypassing the initrd, if you use one. On Fedora, make sure to install the OS on a plain disk without encryption, and without LVM/RAID/... (encrypted /home is fine) when doing this. Then, simply edit grub.conf and remove the initrd from your configuration, and change the root= kernel command line parameter so that it uses kernel device names instead of UUIDs, i.e. "root=sda5" or what is appropriate for your system. Also specify the root FS type with "rootfstype=ext4" (or as appropriate). Note that using kernel devices names is not really that nice if you have multiple hard disks, but if you are doing this for a laptop (i.e. with a single hdd), this should be fine. Note that you shouldn't need to rebuild your kernel in order to bypass the initrd. Distribution kernels (at least Fedora's) work fine with and without initrd, and systemd supports both ways to be started.
-3. Consider disabling SELinux and auditing. We recommend leaving SELinux on, for security reasons, but truth be told you can save 100ms of your boot if you disable it. Use selinux=0 on the kernel cmdline.
-4. Consider disabling Plymouth. If userspace boots in less than 1s, a boot splash is hardly useful, hence consider passing plymouth.enable=0 on the kernel command line. Plymouth is generally quite fast, but currently still forces settling device enumerations for graphics cards, which is slow. Disabling plymouth removes this bit of the boot.
-5. Consider uninstalling syslog. The journal is used anyway on newer systemd systems, and is usually more than sufficient for desktops, and embedded, and even many servers. Just uninstall all syslog implementations and remember that "journalctl" will get you a pixel perfect copy of the classic /var/log/messages message log. To make journal logs persistent (i.e. so that they aren't lost at boot) make sure to run "mkdir -p /var/log/journal".
-6. Consider masking a couple of redundant distribution boot scripts, that artificially slow down the boot. For example, on Fedora it's a good idea to mask fedora-autoswap.service fedora-configure.service fedora-loadmodules.service fedora-readonly.service. Also remove all LVM/RAID/FCOE/iSCSI related packages which slow down the boot substantially even if no storage of the specific kind is used (and if these RPMs can't be removed because some important packages require them, at least mask the respective services).

+
 7. Console output is slow. So if you measure your boot times and ship your system, make sure to use "quiet" on the command line and disable systemd debug logging (if you enabled it before).
-8. Consider removing cron from your system and use systemd timer units instead. Timer units currently have no support for calendar times (i.e. cannot be used to spawn things "at 6 am every Monday", but can do "run this every 7 days"), but for the usual /etc/cron.daily/, /etc/cron.weekly/, ... should be good enough, if the time of day of the execution doesn't matter (just add four small service and timer units for supporting these dirs. Eventually we might support these out of the box, but until then, just write your own scriplets for this).

 9. If you work on an appliance, consider disabling readahead collection in the shipped devices, but leave readahead replay enabled.
-10. If you work on an appliance, make sure to build all drivers you need into the kernel, since module loading is slow. If you build a distribution at least built all the stuff 90% of all people need into your kernel, i.e. at least USB, AHCI and HDA!

+
 11. If it works, use libahci.ignore_sss=1 when booting.
+
 12. Use a modern desktop that doesn't pull in ConsoleKit anymore. For example GNOME 3.4.
-13. Get rid of a local MTA, if you are building a desktop or appliance. I.e. on Fedora remove the sendmail RPMs which are (still!) installed by default.
-14. If you build an appliance, don't forget that various components of systemd are optional and may be disabled during build time, see "./configure --help" for details. For example, get rid of the virtual console setup if you never have local console users (this is a major source of slowness, actually). In addition, if you never have local users at all, consider disabling logind. And there are more components that are frequently unnecessary on appliances.
-15. This goes without saying: the boot-up gets faster if you started less stuff at boot. So run "systemctl" and check if there's stuff you don't need and disable it, or even remove its package.
-16. Don't use debug kernels. Debug kernels are slow. Fedora exclusively uses debug kernels during the development phase of each release. If you care about boot performance, either recompile these kernels with debugging turned off or wait for the final distribution release. It's a drastic difference. That also means that if you publish boot performance data of a Fedora pre-release distribution you are doing something wrong. ;-) So much about the basics of how to get a quick boot. Now, here's an incomprehensive list of things we'd like to see improved in systemd (and elsewhere) over short or long and need a bit of hacking (sometimes more, and sometimes less):
-17. Get rid of systemd-cgroups-agent. Currently, whenever a systemd cgroup runs empty a tool "systemd-cgroups-agent" is invoked by the kernel which then notifies systemd about it. The need for this tool should really go away, which will save a number of forked processes at boot, and should make things faster (especially shutdown). This requires introduction of a new kernel interface to get notifications for cgroups running empty, for example via fanotify() on cgroupfs.
-18. Make use of EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT in systemd's readahead implementation. This allows reordering/defragmentation of the files needed for boot. According to the data from [http://e4rat.sourceforge.net/](http://e4rat.sourceforge.net/) this might shorten the boot time to 40%. Implementation is not trivial, but given that we already support btrfs defragmentation and example code for this exists (e4rat as linked) should be fairly straightforward.
-19. Compress readahead pack files with XZ or so. Since boot these days tends to be clearly IO bound (and not CPU bound) it might make sense to reduce the IO load for the pack file by compressing it. Since we already have a dependency on XZ we'd recommend using XZ for this.
-20. Update the readahead logic to also precache directories (in addition to files).
-21. Improve a couple of algorithms in the unit dependency graph calculation logic, as well as unit file loading. For example, right now when loading units we match them up with a subset of the other loaded units in order to add automatic dependencies between them where appropriate. Usually the set of units matched up is small, but the complexity is currently O(n^2), and this could be optimized. Since unit file loading and calculations in the dependency graphs is the only major, synchronous, computation-intensive bit of PID 1, and is executed before any services are started this should bring relevant improvements, especially on systems with big dependency graphs.
-22. Add socket activation to X. Due to the special socket allocation semantics of X this is useful only for display :0. This should allow parallelization of X startup with its clients.
-23. The usual housekeeping: get rid of shell-based services (i.e. SysV init scripts), replace them with unit files. Don't make use of Type=forking and ordering dependencies if possible, use socket activation with Type=simple instead. This allows drastically better parallelized start-up for your services. Also, if you cannot use socket activation, at least consider patching your services to support Type=notify in place of Type=forking. Consider making seldom used services activated on-demand (for example, printer services), and start frequently used services already at boot instead of delaying them until they are used.
-24. Consider making use of systemd for the session as well, the way Tizen is doing this. This still needs some love in systemd upstream to be a smooth ride, but we definitely would like to go this way sooner or later, even for the normal desktops.
-25. Add an option for service units to temporarily bump the CPU and IO priority of the startup code of important services. Note however, that we assume that this will not bring much and hence recommend looking into this only very late. Since boot-up tends to be IO bound, solutions such as readahead are probably more interesting than prioritizing service startup IO. Also, this would probably always require a certain amount of manual configuration since determining automatically which services are important is hard (if not impossible), because we cannot track properly which services other services wait for.
-26. Same as the previous item, but temporarily lower the CPU/IO priority of the startups part of unimportant leaf services. This is probably more useful than 11 as it is easier to determine which processes don't matter.
-27. Add a kernel sockopt for AF_UNIX to increase the maximum datagram queue length for SOCK_DGRAM sockets. This would allow us to queue substantially more logging datagrams in the syslog and journal sockets, and thus move the point where syslog/journal clients have to block before their message writes finish much later in the boot process. The current kernel default is rather low with 10. (As a temporary hack it is possible to increase /proc/sys/net/unix/max_dgram_qlen globally, but this has implications beyond systemd, and should probably be avoided.) The kernel patch to make this work is most likely trivial. In general, this should allow us to improve the level of parallelization between clients and servers for AF_UNIX sockets of type SOCK_DGRAM or SOCK_SEQPACKET. Again: the list above contains things we'd like to see in systemd anyway. We didn't do much profiling for these features, but we have enough indication to assume that these bits will bring some improvements. But yeah, if you work on this, keep your profiling tools ready at all times.
+
+14. Get rid of a local MTA, if you are building a desktop or appliance.
+I.e. on Fedora remove the sendmail RPMs which are (still!) installed by default.
+
+15. If you build an appliance, don't forget that various components of systemd are optional and may be disabled during build time, see "./configure --help" for details.

-* Access to the socket is restricted to privileged users. To acquire the necessary privileges to send the answer back, consider using PolicyKit. In fact, the GNOME agent we ship does that, and you may simply piggyback on that, by executing "`/usr/bin/pkexec /lib/systemd/systemd-reply-password 1 /path/to/socket`" or "`/usr/bin/pkexec /lib/systemd/systemd-reply-password 0 /path/to/socket`" and writing the password to its standard input. Use '`1`' as argument if a password was entered by the user, or '`0`' if the user canceled the request.
-* If you do not want to use PK ensure to acquire the necessary privileges in some other way and send a single datagram to the socket consisting of the password string either prefixed with "`+`" or with "`-`" depending on whether the password entry was successful or not. You may but don't have to include a final `NUL` byte in your message.

+# Pax Controla Groupiana
+
+_aka "How to behave nicely in the cgroupfs trees"_
+
+**Important Update: Please consult this document only as a historical reference.
+It was written under the assumption that the cgroups tree was a shared resource.
+However, after much discussion this concept has been deemed outdated.
+The cgroups tree can no longer be considered a shared resource.
+Instead, a management daemon of some kind needs to arbitrate access to it, and it needs to actively propagate changes between the entities it manages.
+More specifically, on systemd systems this management daemon is systemd itself, accessible via a number of bus APIs.
+This means instead of dealing directly with the low-level interfaces of the cgroup file system, please use systemd's high-level APIs as a replacement, see the
+[New Control Group Interfaces](/CONTROL_GROUP_INTERFACE)
+for details. They offer similar functionality.**
+
+Are you writing an application interfacing with the cgroups tree?
+The cgroups trees are a shared resource, other applications will use them too.
+Here are a few recommendations how to write your application in a way that minimizes conflicts with other applications.
+If you follow these guidelines applications should not step on any other application's toes and users will be happy.
+
+Before you read these recommendations please make sure you understand cgroups thoroughly,
+and specifically are aware what a controller is, what a named hierarchy is and so on.
+
+## Intended Audience
+
+You should consider these recommendations if you are you working on one of the following:
+
+- You write a system or session manager based on cgroups (like systemd)
+- You write a VM manager based on cgroups (like libvirt)
+- You write a terminal application and want to place every shell in a separate cgroup (like gnome-terminal)
+- You write a web browser and want to place every renderer in a separate cgroup (like Firefox or Chrome)
+- You create a container for some purpose (such as systemd-nspawn)
+- Or you use cgroups for any other purpose and want things to work nicely with other applications.
+
+## General Recommendations
+
+- If you use one of the kernel controllers, do _not_ assume you are the only one who uses them.
+  Other programs may manipulate the tree, add cgroups and change group attributes at any time, and they will not inform you about it.
+  The kernel provided controller hierarchies are a shared resource, so be nice.
+- If you use a generic named hierarchy with no controller attached, then you may assume it's yours and only yours, and that no other programs interfere with it.
+- If you use a generic named hierarchy with no controller attached, then make sure to name it after your project in order to minimize namespacing conflicts.
+  A hierarchy named "name=web" is a bit generic.
+  A hierarchy named "name=apache" a much better choice, if you are an Apache developer and need an entire hierarchy all for yourself.
+- Do _not_ assume everybody uses the same library to manipulate the cgroups tree as you are.
+  In fact most likely most applications and the user himself will manipulate the tree without any further indirection (i.e. will use naked system calls/shell commands)
+- Never create cgroups at the top of the tree (i.e. with an absolute path).
+  If possible find the cgroup your own process was started in and create subgroups only below that group (read /proc/self/cgroup to find it).
+  If that's not applicable, then at least place yourself below the cgroup path of PID 1 (read /proc/1/cgroup to find it).
+  This is important to ensure that containers work properly (the cgroupfs tree is currently not virtualized for containers!), and solves permission problems, and makes the whole system nicely stackable.
+- A corollary of this: If you spawn subprocesses expect that they will create subcgroups.
+  That means when terminating there might be subcgroups below the ones you created and you hence need to recursively remove them too.
+  In fact, many of your operations must probably be executed in a recursive fashion.
+- Do not play permission games: if you are an unprivileged user application then it's _not_ your business to ensure you have the right permissions
+  (i.e. do not include any setuid code in your app to create groups).
+  Instead your system manager (such as systemd),
+  should provide you with the right set of permissions on the cgroup you are running in to create subgroups.
+  Normally that should mean that depending on administrator configuration, you will or will not get access to create subgroups under the cgroup you are running in and the ability to add PIDs to it.
+  If you don't get access to these hierarchies then this might be a decision by the administrator and you should do your best to go on, and fail gracefully.
+- If you create a cgroup, then you are in charge of removing it too after using it.
+  Do not remove other program's cgroups.
+  Special exception: in some cases it is OK to pre-set attributes on certain cgroups that are primarily managed by another program.
+  (Example: in systemd we are fine if you externally pre-create or manipulate service cgroups, for example to make changes to some attributes you cannot control with systemd natively, see below).
+  In that case: create the cgroup and set the sticky bit (+t) on the tasks file in it.
+  This will then be used as an indication to the primary manager of the group not to remove the cgroup at the end, in order to avoid that your settings are lost.
+  This is of course a bit of a misuse of the sticky bit, but given that it serves no other purpose on Linux for normal files, it is an OK use, with a fitting meaning given the name of "sticky bit".
+- If you find a process in a cgroup you are about to remove, and it is not yours, consider leaving the cgroup around.
+  I.e. if rmdir returns EEMPTY, ignore this.
+- The cgroup mount point for a specific hierarchy is /sys/fs/cgroup/$CONTROLLER/.
+  (Example: /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu for the "cpu" controller).
+  In your application you are welcome to rely on these standardized mount points,
+  and it is not necessary to dynamically determine the current mount point via /proc/self/mountinfo (but if you do, that's of course fine, too).
+  Note that /sys/fs/cgroup/$CONTROLLER/ might actually just be a symlink to some other mount point (see below).
+- If multiple controllers are mounted into the same hierarchy, it is guaranteed that symlinks exist to make sure all jointly mounted controllers are still available under /sys/fs/cgroup/$CONTROLLER/.
+  Example: if "cpu" and "cpuacct" are mounted together, then symlinks /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu and /sys/fs/cgroup/cpuacct will point to the joint mountpoint (which could be something like /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu+cpuacct).
+- Your application should not mount the cgroup controller file systems (unless it is your own private named hierarchy).
+  This is exclusively a job for the system manager or a system-wide init script such as cgconfig.
+  If you work on a system manager or such an init script you must mount the cgroup controllers to /sys/fs/cgroup/$CONTROLLER/ or provide compatibility symlinks.
+- It's a good idea not to fail if a cgroup already exists when you try to create it.
+  Ignore EEXIST on mkdir.
+- Avoid renaming cgroups or similar fancier file operations.
+- Expect that other programs might readjust the attributes on your cgroups dynamically during runtime.
+- When creating a cgroup pick a nice a descriptive name that is guessable and no surprise to the admin.
+  The admin will thank you for this if he has to read the output of "ps -eo pid,args,cgroups"
+- /sys/fs/cgroup is a tmpfs. If you create your own private named hierarchy then you are welcome to mount it into a subdirectory of this directory.
+  This minimizes surprises for the user.
+- /sys/fs/cgroup is a tmpfs, but it's only intended use is to act as place where control group hierarchies can be mounted or symlinked to.
+  You should not place any other kind of file in this directory.
+  The same way as /dev/shm is for POSIX shared memory segments only -- and nothing else -- this directory is for cgroup hierarchies only.
+  Just because something is a tmpfs it doesn't mean you can actually use it for "temporary" files, thank you.
+- Avoid creating orthogonal hierarchies in the various kernel controller hierarchies.
+  Please make sure that the controllers contain the same hierarchy or subsets of each other.
+
+## Cooperation with systemd
+
+systemd adheres to the recommendations above and guarantees additional behavior which might be useful for writing applications that cooperate with systemd on cgroup management:
+
+- If a service cgroup already exists, systemd will make use of it and not recreate it.
+  (If +t is set on the tasks file it will not remove it when stopping a service, otherwise it will, see above).
+  It is hence OK to pre-create cgroups and then let systemd use it, without having systemd remove it afterwards.
+- If a service cgroup already exists, systemd will not override the attributes of the cgroup with the exception of those explicitly configured in the systemd unit files.
+  It is hence OK to pre-create cgroups for use in systemd, and pre-apply attributes to it.
+- To avoid that systemd places all services in automatic cgroups in the "cpu" hierarchy change the [?](https://secure.freedesktop.org/write/www/ikiwiki.cgi?do=create&amp;from=Software%2Fsystemd%2FPaxControlGroups&amp;page=DefaultControllers) DefaultControllers= in /etc/systemd/system.conf and set it to the empty string.
+- By default systemd will place services only in automatic cgroups in the "cpu" hierarchy and in its own private tree "name=systemd".
+  If you want it to duplicate these trees in other hierarchies add them to [?](https://secure.freedesktop.org/write/www/ikiwiki.cgi?do=create&amp;from=Software%2Fsystemd%2FPaxControlGroups&amp;page=DefaultControllers) DefaultControllers= in /etc/systemd/system.conf
+- To opt-out or opt-in specific services from the automatic tree generation in the kernel controller hierarchies use [?](https://secure.freedesktop.org/write/www/ikiwiki.cgi?do=create&amp;from=Software%2Fsystemd%2FPaxControlGroups&amp;page=ControlGroup) ControlGroup= in the unit file.
+  Use "[?](https://secure.freedesktop.org/write/www/ikiwiki.cgi?do=create&amp;from=Software%2Fsystemd%2FPaxControlGroups&amp;page=ControlGroup) ControlGroup=cpu:/" to opt-out of cgroup assignment for a service or
+  [?](https://secure.freedesktop.org/write/www/ikiwiki.cgi?do=create&amp;from=Software%2Fsystemd%2FPaxControlGroups&amp;page=ControlGroup) ControlGroup=cpu:/foo/bar" to manipulate the cgroup path.
+- Stay away from the name=systemd named hierarchy.
+  It's private property of systemd.
+  You are welcome to explore it, but it is uncool to modify it from outside systemd.
+Thanks.

 ## General Portability of systemd and its Components
 
-**Portability to OSes:** systemd is not portable to non-Linux systems. It makes use of a large number of Linux-specific interfaces, including many that are used by its very core. We do not consider it feasible to port systemd to other Unixes (let alone non-Unix operating systems) and will not accept patches for systemd core implementing any such portability (but hey, it's git, so it's as easy as it can get to maintain your own fork...). APIs that are supposed to be used as library code are exempted from this: it is important to us that these compile nicely on non-Linux and even non-Unix platforms, even if they might just become NOPs.

+We will make sure to provide portability with all important architectures and hardware Linux runs on and are happy to accept patches for this.
 
-**Portability to Distributions:** It is important to us that systemd is portable to all Linux distributions. However, the goal is to unify many of the needless differences between the distributions, and hence will not accept patches for certain distribution-specific work-arounds. Compatibility with the distribution's legacy should be maintained in the distribution's packaging, and not in the systemd source tree.

-**Compatibility with Specific Versions of Other packages:** We generally avoid adding compatibility kludges to systemd that work around bugs in certain versions of other software systemd interfaces with. We strongly encourage fixing bugs where they are, and if that's not systemd we rather not try to fix it there. (There are very few exceptions to this rule possible, and you need an exceptionally strong case for it).

 # Predictable Network Interface Names
 
-Starting with v197 systemd/udev will automatically assign predictable, stable network interface names for all local Ethernet, WLAN and WWAN interfaces. This is a departure from the traditional interface naming scheme (`eth0`, `eth1`, `wlan0`, ...), but should fix real problems.
+Starting with v197 systemd/udev will automatically assign predictable, stable network interface names for all local Ethernet, WLAN and WWAN interfaces.
+This is a departure from the traditional interface naming scheme (`eth0`, `eth1`, `wlan0`, ...), but should fix real problems.
 
 ## Why?
 
-The classic naming scheme for network interfaces applied by the kernel is to simply assign names beginning with `eth0`, `eth1`, ... to all interfaces as they are probed by the drivers. As the driver probing is generally not predictable for modern technology this means that as soon as multiple network interfaces are available the assignment of the names `eth0`, `eth1` and so on is generally not fixed anymore and it might very well happen that `eth0` on one boot ends up being `eth1` on the next. This can have serious security implications, for example in firewall rules which are coded for certain naming schemes, and which are hence very sensitive to unpredictable changing names.

+This can have serious security implications, for example in firewall rules which are coded for certain naming schemes, and which are hence very sensitive to unpredictable changing names.
 
-To fix this problem multiple solutions have been proposed and implemented. For a longer time udev shipped support for assigning permanent `ethX` names to certain interfaces based on their MAC addresses. This turned out to have a multitude of problems, among them: this required a writable root directory which is generally not available; the statelessness of the system is lost as booting an OS image on a system will result in changed configuration of the image; on many systems MAC addresses are not actually fixed, such as on a lot of embedded hardware and particularly on all kinds of virtualization solutions.  The biggest of all however is that the userspace components trying to assign the interface name raced against the kernel assigning new names from the same `ethX` namespace, a race condition with all kinds of weird effects, among them that assignment of names sometimes failed. As a result support for this has been removed from systemd/udev a while back.

+As a result support for this has been removed from systemd/udev a while back.
 
-Another solution that has been implemented is `biosdevname` which tries to find fixed slot topology information in certain firmware interfaces and uses them to assign fixed names to interfaces which incorporate their physical location on the mainboard. In a way this naming scheme is similar to what is already done natively in udev for various device nodes via `/dev/*/by-path/` symlinks. In many cases, biosdevname departs from the low-level kernel device identification schemes that udev generally uses for these symlinks, and instead invents its own enumeration schemes.

+In many cases, biosdevname departs from the low-level kernel device identification schemes that udev generally uses for these symlinks, and instead invents its own enumeration schemes.
 
-Finally, many distributions support renaming interfaces to user-chosen names (think: `internet0`, `dmz0`, ...) keyed off their MAC addresses or physical locations as part of their networking scripts. This is a very good choice but does have the problem that it implies that the user is willing and capable of choosing and assigning these names.

+This is a very good choice but does have the problem that it implies that the user is willing and capable of choosing and assigning these names.
 
-We believe it is a good default choice to generalize the scheme pioneered by `biosdevname`. Assigning fixed names based on firmware/topology/location information has the big advantage that the names are fully automatic, fully predictable, that they stay fixed even if hardware is added or removed (i.e. no reenumeration takes place) and that broken hardware can be replaced seamlessly. That said, they admittedly are sometimes harder to read than the `eth0` or `wlan0` everybody is used to. Example: `enp5s0`

 ## What precisely has changed in v197?

-Most of the failures you will experience with /usr split off and not pre-mounted in the initramfs are graceful failures: they won't become directly visible, however certain features become unavailable due to these failures. Quite a number of programs these days hook themselves into the early boot process at various stages. A popular way to do this is for example via udev rules. The binaries called from these rules are sometimes located on /usr/bin, or link against libraries in /usr/lib, or use data files from /usr/share. If these rules fail udev will proceed with the next one, however later on applications will then not properly detect these udev devices or features of these devices. Here's a short, very in-comprehensive list of software we are aware of that currently are not able to provide the full set of functionality when /usr is split off and not pre-mounted at boot: udev-pci-db/udev-usb-db and all rules depending on this (using the PCI/USB database in /usr/share), PulseAudio, NetworkManager, ModemManager, udisks, libatasmart, usb\_modeswitch, gnome-color-manager, usbmuxd, ALSA, D-Bus, CUPS, Plymouth, LVM, hplip, multipath, Argyll, VMWare, the locale logic of most programs and a lot of other stuff.

 ## Going Forward
 
-/usr on its own filesystem is useful in some custom setups. But instead of expecting the traditional Unix way to (sometimes mindlessly) distributing tools between /usr and /, and require more and more tools to move to /, we now just expect /usr to be pre-mounted from inside the initramfs, to be available before 'init' starts. The duty of the minimal boot system that consisted of /bin, /sbin and /lib on traditional Unix, has been taken over by the initramfs of modern Linux. An initramfs that supports mounting /usr on top of / before it starts 'init', makes all existing setups work properly.

 # Writing syslog Daemons Which Cooperate Nicely With systemd
 
-Here are a few notes on things to keep in mind when you work on a classic BSD syslog daemon for Linux, to ensure that your syslog daemon works nicely together with systemd. If your syslog implementation does not follow these rules, then it will not be compatible with systemd v38 and newer.

-A few notes in advance: systemd centralizes all log streams in the Journal daemon. Messages coming in via /dev/log, via the native protocol, via STDOUT/STDERR of all services and via the kernel are received in the journal daemon. The journal daemon then stores them to disk or in RAM (depending on the configuration of the Storage= option in journald.conf), and optionally forwards them to the console, the kernel log buffer, or to a classic BSD syslog daemon -- and that's where you come in.

-Note that it is now the journal that listens on /dev/log, no longer the BSD syslog daemon directly. If your logging daemon wants to get access to all logging data then it should listen on /run/systemd/journal/syslog instead via the syslog.socket unit file that is shipped along with systemd. On a systemd system it is no longer OK to listen on /dev/log directly, and your daemon may not bind to the /run/systemd/journal/syslog socket on its own. If you do that then you will lose logging from STDOUT/STDERR of services (as well as other stuff).

-Your BSD compatible logging service should alias `syslog.service` to itself (i.e. symlink) when it is _enabled_. That way [syslog.socket](http://cgit.freedesktop.org/systemd/systemd/plain/units/syslog.socket) will activate your service when things are logged.

(see below for details how to manage this symlink.) Note that this means that syslog.socket as shipped with systemd is _shared_ among all implementations, and the implementation that is in control is configured with where syslog.service points to.

 And here are the recommendations:
 
-- First of all, make sure your syslog daemon installs a native service unit file (SysV scripts are not sufficient!) and is socket activatable. Newer systemd versions (v35+) do not support non-socket-activated syslog daemons anymore and we do no longer recommend people to order their units after syslog.target. That means that unless your syslog implementation is socket activatable many services will not be able to log to your syslog implementation and early boot messages are lost entirely to your implementation. Note that your service should install only one unit file, and nothing else. Do not install socket unit files.
-- Make sure that in your unit file you set StandardOutput=null in the [Service] block. This makes sure that regardless what the global default for StandardOutput= is the output of your syslog implementation goes to /dev/null. This matters since the default StandardOutput= value for all units can be set to syslog and this should not create a feedback loop with your implementation where the messages your syslog implementation writes out are fed back to it. In other words: you need to explicitly opt out of the default standard output redirection we do for other services. (Also note that you do not need to set StandardError= explicitly, since that inherits the setting of StandardOutput= by default)

 - /proc/kmsg is your property, flush it to disk as soon as you start up.
-- Name your service unit after your daemon (e.g. rsyslog.service or syslog-ng.service) and make sure to include Alias=syslog.service in your [Install] section in the unit file. This is ensures that the symlink syslog.service is created if your service is enabled and that it points to your service. Also add WantedBy=multi-user.target so that your service gets started at boot, and add Requires=syslog.socket in [Unit] so that you pull in the socket unit.

 Here are a few other recommendations, that are not directly related to systemd:
 
-- Make sure to read the priority prefixes of the kmsg log messages the same way like from normal userspace syslog messages. When systemd writes to kmsg it will prefix all messages with valid priorities which include standard syslog facility values. OTOH for kernel messages the facility is always 0. If you need to know whether a message originated in the kernel rely on the facility value, not just on the fact that you read the message from /proc/kmsg! A number of userspace applications write messages to kmsg (systemd, udev, dracut, others), and they'll nowadays all set correct facility values.

 - When you read a message from the socket use SCM_CREDENTIALS to get information about the client generating it, and possibly patch the message with this data in order to make it impossible for clients to fake identities.
 
 The unit file you install for your service should look something like this:

    the user name.
 
 2. 61184…65519 → UIDs for dynamic users are allocated from this range (see the
    `DynamicUser=` documentation in
-   [`systemd.exec(5)`](https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.exec.html)). This

-   is above the 60000 boundary, so that its allocations are unlikely to be

 2. While it's fine to assign more than 65536 UIDs/GIDs to a container, there's

 ## Support for Suspending Home Directory Access during System Suspend
 
 One key feature of `systemd-homed` managed encrypted home directories is the
 ability that access to them can be suspended automatically during system sleep,
-removing any cryptographic key material from memory while doing so. This is
-important in a world where most laptop users seldom shut down their computers
-but most of the time just suspend them instead. Previously, the encryption keys
-for the home directories remained in memory during system suspend, so that
-sufficiently equipped attackers could read them from there and gain full access
-to the device. By removing the key material from memory before suspend, and
-re-requesting it on resume this attack vector can be closed down effectively.

 ## Concepts
 
 Each subsystem that needs to define users and groups on the local system is
 supposed to implement this API, and offer its interfaces on a Varlink
 `AF_UNIX`/`SOCK_STREAM` file system socket bound into the
-`/run/systemd/userdb/` directory. When a client wants to look up a user or
-group record, it contacts all sockets bound in this directory in parallel, and
-enqueues the same query to each. The first positive reply is then returned to
-the application, or if all fail the last seen error is returned
-instead. (Alternatively a special Varlink service is available,

+Instead, all queries are always enqueued in parallel to all defined services, in order to
 make look-ups efficient, and the simple rule of "first successful lookup wins"
 is unconditionally followed for user and group look-ups (though not for

 This simple scheme only works safely as long as every service providing

 Minimal porting (without multi-seat) requires the following:
 
 1. Remove/disable all code responsible for registering your service with ConsoleKit.
-2. Make sure to register your greeter session via the PAM session stack, and make sure the PAM session modules include pam_systemd. Also, make sure to set the session class to "greeter." This may be done by setting the environment variable XDG_SESSION_CLASS to "greeter" with pam_misc_setenv() or setting the "class=greeter" option in the pam_systemd module, in order to allow applications to filter out greeter sessions from normal login sessions.

-4. Optionally, use pam_misc_setenv() to set the environment variables XDG_SEAT and XDG_VTNR. The former should contain "seat0", the latter the VT number your session runs on. pam_systemd can determine these values automatically but it's nice to pass these variables anyway.
-   In summary: porting a display manager from ConsoleKit to systemd primarily means removing code, not necessarily adding any new code. Here, a cheers to simplicity!
-
-Complete porting (with multi-seat) requires the following (Before you continue, make sure to read up on [Multi-Seat on Linux](http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/multiseat) first.):
-
-1. Subscribe to seats showing up and going away, via the systemd-logind D-Bus interface's SeatAdded and SeatRemoved signals. Take possession of each seat by spawning your greeter on it. However, do so exclusively for seats where the boolean CanGraphical property is true. Note that there are seats that cannot do graphical, and there are seats that are text-only first, and gain graphical support later on. Most prominently this is actually seat0 which comes up in text mode, and where the graphics driver is then loaded and probed during boot. This means display managers must watch PropertyChanged events on all seats, to see if they gain (or lose) the CanGraphical field.

Note that only the special seat "seat0" actually knows kernel VTs, so you shouldn't pass the VT number on any but the main seat, since it doesn't make any sense there.

To work around this limitation we provide a tiny wrapper /lib/systemd/systemd-multi-seat-x which emulates the enumeration for graphics devices too. This wrapper will eventually go away, as soon as X learns udev-based graphics device enumeration natively, instead of the current PCI based one. Hence it is a good idea to fall back to the real X when this wrapper is not found. You may use this wrapper exactly like the real X server, and internally it will just exec() it after putting together a minimal multi-seat configuration.

In fact it is possible to implement the scheme above entirely without D-Bus relying only on this API.

However, by passing the DNS configuration directly to `systemd-resolved` via the bus a couple of benefits are available:
-
-1. `systemd-resolved` maintains DNS configuration per-interface, instead of simply system-wide, and is capable of sending DNS requests to servers on multiple different network interfaces simultaneously, returning the first positive response (or if all fail, the last negative one). This allows effective "merging" of DNS views on different interfaces, which makes private DNS zones on multi-homed hosts a lot nicer to use. For example, if you are connected to a LAN and a VPN, and both have private DNS zones, then you will be able to resolve both, as long as they don't clash in names.

-2. Per-link configuration of DNSSEC is available. This is particularly interesting for network configuration managers that implement captive portal detection: as long as a verified connection to the Internet is not found DNSSEC should be turned off (as some captive portal systems alter the DNS in order to redirect clients to their internal pages).

 ## Suggested Mode of Operation
 
-Whenever a network configuration manager sets up an interface for operation, it should pass the DNS configuration information for the interface to `systemd-resolved`. It's recommended to do that after the Linux network interface index ("ifindex") has been allocated, but before the interface has been upped (i.e. `IFF_UP` turned on). That way, `systemd-resolved` will be able to use the configuration the moment the network interface is available. (Note that `systemd-resolved` watches the kernel interfaces come and go, and will make use of them as soon as they are suitable to be used, which among other factors requires `IFF_UP` to be set). That said it is OK to change DNS configuration dynamically any time: simply pass the new data to resolved, and it is happy to use it.

-`systemd-resolved` distinguishes between "search" and "routing" domains. Routing domains are used to route DNS requests of specific domains to particular interfaces. i.e. requests for a hostname `foo.bar.com` will be routed to any interface that has `bar.com` as routing domain. The same routing domain may be defined on multiple interfaces, in which case the request is routed to all of them in parallel. Resolver requests for hostnames that do not end in any defined routing domain of any interface will be routed to all suitable interfaces. Search domains work like routing domain, but are also used to qualify single-label domain names. They hence are identical to the traditional search domain logic on UNIX. The `SetLinkDomains()` call may used to define both search and routing domains.

-The most basic support of `systemd-resolved` in a network configuration manager would be to simply invoke `SetLinkDNS()` and `SetLinkDomains()` for the specific interface index with the data traditionally written to `/etc/resolv.conf`. More advanced integration could mean the network configuration manager also makes the DNSSEC mode, the DNSSEC NTAs and the LLMNR/MulticastDNS modes available for configuration.

 4. _ResolveRecord()_ for resolving arbitrary resource records.
 
-Below you'll find examples for two of these calls, to show how to use them. Note that glibc offers similar (and more portable) calls in _getaddrinfo()_, _getnameinfo()_ and _res_query()_. Of these _getaddrinfo()_ and _getnameinfo()_ are directed to the calls above via the _nss-resolve_ NSS module, but _req_query()_ is not. There are a number of reasons why it might be preferable to invoke _systemd-resolved_'s bus calls rather than the glibc APIs:

 1. Bus APIs are naturally asynchronous, which the glibc APIs generally are not.
-2. The bus calls above pass back substantially more information about the resolved data, including where and how the data was found (i.e. which protocol was used: DNS, LLMNR, MulticastDNS, and on which network interface), and most importantly, whether the data could be authenticated via DNSSEC. This in particular makes these APIs useful for retrieving certificate data from the DNS, in order to implement DANE, SSHFP, OPENGPGKEY and IPSECKEY clients.

 3. _ResolveService()_ knows no counterpart in glibc, and has the benefit of being a single call that collects all data necessary to connect to a DNS-SD or pure SRV service in one step.
-4. _ResolveRecord()_ in contrast to _res_query()_ supports LLMNR and MulticastDNS as protocols on top of DNS, and makes use of _systemd-resolved_'s local DNS record cache. The processing of the request is done in the sandboxed _systemd-resolved_ process rather than in the local process, and all packets are pre-validated. Because this relies on _systemd-resolved_ the per-interface DNS zone handling is supported.

 ## Resolving a Hostname
 
-To resolve a hostname use the _ResolveHostname()_ call. For details on the function parameters see the [bus API documentation](https://wiki.freedesktop.org/www/Software/systemd/resolved/).

-This example specifies _AF_UNSPEC_ as address family for the requested address. This means both an _AF_INET_ (A) and an _AF_INET6_ (AAAA) record is looked for, depending on whether the local system has configured IPv4 and/or IPv6 connectivity. It is generally recommended to request _AF_UNSPEC_ addresses for best compatibility with both protocols, in particular on dual-stack systems.

-The example specifies a network interface index of "0", i.e. does not specify any at all, so that the request may be done on any. Note that the interface index is primarily relevant for LLMNR and MulticastDNS lookups, which distinguish different scopes for each network interface index.

 ## Resolving an Arbitrary DNS Resource Record
 
-Use `ResolveRecord()` in order to resolve arbitrary resource records. The call will return the binary RRset data. This calls is useful to acquire resource records for which no high-level calls such as ResolveHostname(), ResolveAddress() and ResolveService() exist. In particular RRs such as MX, SSHFP, TLSA, CERT, OPENPGPKEY or IPSECKEY may be requested via this API.

 This example also shows how to determine whether the acquired data has been authenticated via DNSSEC (or another means) by checking the `SD_RESOLVED_AUTHENTICATED` bit in the

 # Writing VM and Container Managers
 
 _Or: How to hook up your favorite VM or container manager with systemd_
 
-Nomenclature: a _Virtual Machine_ shall refer to a system running on virtualized hardware consisting of a full OS with its own kernel. A _Container_ shall refer to a system running on the same shared kernel of the host, but running a mostly complete OS with its own init system. Both kinds of virtualized systems shall collectively be called "machines".

-systemd provides a number of integration points with virtual machine and container managers, such as libvirt, LXC or systemd-nspawn. On one hand there are integration points of the VM/container manager towards the host OS it is running on, and on the other there integration points for container managers towards the guest OS it is managing.

 ## Host OS Integration
 
-All virtual machines and containers should be registered with the [machined](http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/machined) mini service that is part of systemd. This provides integration into the core OS at various points. For example, tools like ps, cgls, gnome-system-manager use this registration information to show machine information for running processes, as each of the VM's/container's processes can reliably attributed to a registered machine. The various systemd tools (like systemctl, journalctl, loginctl, systemd-run, ...) all support a -M switch that operates on machines registered with machined. "machinectl" may be used to execute operations on any such machine. When a machine is registered via machined its processes will automatically be placed in a systemd scope unit (that is located in the machines.slice slice) and thus appear in "systemctl" and similar commands. The scope unit name is based on the machine meta information passed to machined at registration.

 ## Guest OS Integration
 
-As container virtualization is much less comprehensive, and the guest is less isolated from the host, there are a number of interfaces defined how the container manager can set up the environment for systemd running inside a container. These Interfaces are documented in [Container Interface of systemd](http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/ContainerInterface).
-
-VM virtualization is more comprehensive and fewer integration APIs are available. In fact there's only one: a VM manager may initialize the SMBIOS DMI field "Product UUUID" to a UUID uniquely identifying this virtual machine instance. This is read in the guest via /sys/class/dmi/id/product_uuid, and used as configuration source for /etc/machine-id if in the guest, if that file is not initialized yet. Note that this is currently only supported for kvm hosts, but may be extended to other managers as well.
