2014-08-22core: add support for a configurable system-wide start-up timeoutLennart Poettering
When this system-wide start-up timeout is hit we execute one of the failure actions already implemented for services that fail. This should not only be useful on embedded devices, but also on laptops which have the power-button reachable when the lid is closed. This devices, when in a backpack might get powered on by accident due to the easily reachable power button. We want to make sure that the system turns itself off if it starts up due this after a while. When the system manages to fully start-up logind will suspend the machine by default if the lid is closed. However, in some cases we don't even get as far as logind, and the boot hangs much earlier, for example because we ask for a LUKS password that nobody ever enters. Yeah, this is a real-life problem on my Yoga 13, which has one of those easily accessible power buttons, even if the device is closed.
