+ <title>Description</title>
+
+ <para><filename>systemd-fsck@.service</filename>, <filename>systemd-fsck-root.service</filename>, and
+ <filename>systemd-fsck-usr.service</filename> are services responsible for file system checks. They are
+ instantiated for each device that is configured for file system checking.
+ <filename>systemd-fsck-root.service</filename> and <filename>systemd-fsck-usr.service</filename> are
+ responsible for file system checks on the root and /usr file system, respectively, but only if the root
+ filesystem was not checked in the initrd. <filename>systemd-fsck@.service</filename> is used for all
+ other file systems and for the root file system in the initrd.</para>
+
+ <para>These services are started at boot if <option>passno</option> in <filename>/etc/fstab</filename>
+ for the file system is set to a value greater than zero, but only if it is also configured to be
+ mounted at boot (i.e. without <literal>noauto</literal> option). The file system check for root is
+ performed before the other file systems. Other file systems may be checked in parallel, except when
+ they are on the same rotating disk.</para>
+
+ <para><filename>systemd-fsck</filename> does not know any details
+ about specific filesystems, and simply executes file system
+ checkers specific to each filesystem type
+ (<filename>fsck.<replaceable>type</replaceable></filename>). These checkers will decide if
+ the filesystem should actually be checked based on the time since
+ last check, number of mounts, unclean unmount, etc.</para>
+
+ <para><filename>systemd-fsck-root.service</filename> and <filename>systemd-fsck-usr.service</filename>
+ will activate <filename>reboot.target</filename> if <command>fsck</command> returns the "System
+ should reboot" condition, or <filename>emergency.target</filename> if <command>fsck</command>
+ returns the "Filesystem errors left uncorrected" condition.</para>
+
+ <para><filename>systemd-fsck@.service</filename> will fail if
+ <command>fsck</command> returns with either "System should reboot"
+ or "Filesystem errors left uncorrected" conditions. For filesystems
+ listed in <filename>/etc/fstab</filename> without <literal>nofail</literal>
+ or <literal>noauto</literal> options, <literal>local-fs.target</literal>
+ will then activate <filename>emergency.target</filename>.</para>
