The preferred way to + create symlinks in the <filename>.wants/</filename> directory of a + unit file is with the <command>enable</command> command of the + <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemctl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry> + tool which reads information from the [Install] section of unit + files (see below). A similar functionality exists for + <varname>Requires=</varname> type dependencies as well, the + directory suffix is <filename>.requires/</filename> in this + case.</para> + + <para>Along with a unit file <filename>foo.service</filename>, a "drop-in" directory + <filename>foo.service.d/</filename> may exist. All files with the suffix <literal>.conf</literal> from this + directory will be parsed after the file itself is parsed. This is useful to alter or add configuration settings for + a unit, without having to modify unit files. Each drop-in file must have appropriate section headers. Note that for + instantiated units, this logic will first look for the instance <literal>.d/</literal> subdirectory and read its + <literal>.conf</literal> files, followed by the template <literal>.d/</literal> subdirectory and the + <literal>.conf</literal> files there. Also note that settings from the <literal>[Install]</literal> section are not + honoured in drop-in unit files, and have no effect.</para> + + <para>In addition to <filename>/etc/systemd/system</filename>, + the drop-in <literal>.conf</literal> files for system services + can be placed in <filename>/usr/lib/systemd/system</filename> or + <filename>/run/systemd/system</filename> directories. Drop-in + files in <filename>/etc</filename> take precedence over those in + <filename>/run</filename> which in turn take precedence over + those in <filename>/usr/lib</filename>. Drop-in files under any of + these directories take precedence over unit files wherever located. + (Of course, since <filename>/run</filename> is temporary and + <filename>/usr/lib</filename> is for vendors, it is unlikely + drop-ins should be used in either of those places.)</para> + <!-- Note that we do not document .include here, as we + consider it mostly obsolete, and want people to + use .d/ drop-ins instead. --> + + <para>Some unit names reflect paths existing in the file system + namespace. Example: a device unit + <filename>dev-sda.device</filename> refers to a device with the + device node <filename noindex='true'>/dev/sda</filename> in the + file system namespace. If this applies, a special way to escape + the path name is used, so that the result is usable as part of a + filename. Basically, given a path, "/" is replaced by "-", and all + other characters which are not ASCII alphanumerics are replaced by + C-style "\x2d" escapes (except that "_" is never replaced and "." + is only replaced when it would be the first character in the + escaped path). The root directory "/" is encoded as single dash, + while otherwise the initial and ending "/" are removed from all + paths during transformation. This escaping is reversible. Properly + escaped paths can be generated using the + <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-escape</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry> + command.</para> + + <para>Optionally, units may be instantiated from a + template file at runtime. This allows creation of + multiple units from a single configuration file. If + systemd looks for a unit configuration file, it will + first search for the literal unit name in the + file system. If that yields no success and the unit + name contains an <literal>@</literal> character, systemd will look for a + unit template that shares the same name but with the + instance string (i.e. the part between the <literal>@</literal> character + and the suffix) removed. Example: if a service + <filename>getty@tty3.service</filename> is requested + and no file by that name is found, systemd will look + for <filename>getty@.service</filename> and + instantiate a service from that configuration file if + it is found.</para> + + <para>To refer to the instance string from within the + configuration file you may use the special <literal>%i</literal> + specifier in many of the configuration options. See below for + details.</para> + + <para>If a unit file is empty (i.e. has the file size 0) or is + symlinked to <filename>/dev/null</filename>, its configuration + will not be loaded and it appears with a load state of + <literal>masked</literal>, and cannot be activated.

NB: ordering and requirement + dependencies are orthogonal. If only a requirement dependency + exists between two units (e.g. <filename>foo.service</filename> + requires <filename>bar.service</filename>), but no ordering + dependency (e.g. <filename>foo.service</filename> after + <filename>bar.service</filename>) and both are requested to start, + they will be started in parallel. It is a common pattern that both + requirement and ordering dependencies are placed between two + units. Also note that the majority of dependencies are implicitly + created and maintained by systemd. In most cases, it should be + unnecessary to declare additional dependencies manually, however + it is possible to do this.</para> + + <para>Application programs and units (via dependencies) may + request state changes of units. In systemd, these requests are + encapsulated as 'jobs' and maintained in a job queue. Jobs may + succeed or can fail, their execution is ordered based on the + ordering dependencies of the units they have been scheduled + for.</para> + + <para>On boot systemd activates the target unit + <filename>default.target</filename> whose job is to activate + on-boot services and other on-boot units by pulling them in via + dependencies. Usually, the unit name is just an alias (symlink) for + either <filename>graphical.target</filename> (for fully-featured + boots into the UI) or <filename>multi-user.target</filename> (for + limited console-only boots for use in embedded or server + environments, or similar; a subset of graphical.target). However, + it is at the discretion of the administrator to configure it as an + alias to any other target unit. See + <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.special</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry> + for details about these target units.</para> + + <para>Processes systemd spawns are placed in individual Linux + control groups named after the unit which they belong to in the + private systemd hierarchy. (see <ulink + url="https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/cgroups/cgroups.txt">cgroups.txt</ulink> + for more information about control groups, or short "cgroups"). + systemd uses this to effectively keep track of processes. Control + group information is maintained in the kernel, and is accessible + via the file system hierarchy (beneath + <filename>/sys/fs/cgroup/systemd/</filename>), or in tools such as + <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>systemd-cgls</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry> + or + <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>ps</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry> + (<command>ps xawf -eo pid,user,cgroup,args</command> is + particularly useful to list all processes and the systemd units + they belong to.).</para> + + <para>systemd is compatible with the SysV init system to a large + degree: SysV init scripts are supported and simply read as an + alternative (though limited) configuration file format. The SysV + <filename>/dev/initctl</filename> interface is provided, and + compatibility implementations of the various SysV client tools are + available. In addition to that, various established Unix + functionality such as <filename>/etc/fstab</filename> or the + <filename>utmp</filename> database are supported.</para> + + <para>systemd has a minimal transaction system: if a unit is + requested to start up or shut down it will add it and all its + dependencies to a temporary transaction. Then, it will verify if + the transaction is consistent (i.e. whether the ordering of all + units is cycle-free). If it is not, systemd will try to fix it up, + and removes non-essential jobs from the transaction that might + remove the loop. Also, systemd tries to suppress non-essential + jobs in the transaction that would stop a running service. Finally + it is checked whether the jobs of the transaction contradict jobs + that have already been queued, and optionally the transaction is + aborted then. If all worked out and the transaction is consistent + and minimized in its impact it is merged with all already + outstanding jobs and added to the run queue. Effectively this + means that before executing a requested operation, systemd will + verify that it makes sense, fixing it if possible, and only + failing if it really cannot work.</para> + + <para>Systemd contains native implementations of various tasks + that need to be executed as part of the boot process.
