<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>

<title>Kernel Command Line</title>
<para><command>systemd-fsck</command> understands these kernel
command line parameters:</para>
<variablelist class='kernel-commandline-options'>
<varlistentry>
<term><varname>fsck.mode=</varname></term>
<listitem><para>One of <literal>auto</literal>,
<literal>force</literal>, <literal>skip</literal>. Controls
the mode of operation. The default is <literal>auto</literal>,
and ensures that file system checks are done when the file
system checker deems them necessary. <literal>force</literal>
unconditionally results in full file system checks.
<literal>skip</literal> skips any file system
checks.</para>
<xi:include href="version-info.xml" xpointer="v186"/></listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><varname>fsck.repair=</varname></term>
<listitem><para>One of <literal>preen</literal>,
<literal>yes</literal>, <literal>no</literal>. Controls the
mode of operation. The default is <literal>preen</literal>,
and will automatically repair problems that can be safely
fixed. <literal>yes</literal> will answer yes to all
questions by fsck and <literal>no</literal> will answer no to
all questions. </para>
