    <title>Description</title>

    <para>Unit configuration files for services, slices, scopes, sockets, mount points, and swap devices share a subset
    of configuration options for resource control of spawned processes. Internally, this relies on the Linux Control
    Groups (cgroups) kernel concept for organizing processes in a hierarchical tree of named groups for the purpose of
    resource management.</para>

    <para>This man page lists the configuration options shared by
    those six unit types. See
    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.unit</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
    for the common options of all unit configuration files, and

    for more information on the specific unit configuration files. The
    resource control configuration options are configured in the
    [Slice], [Scope], [Service], [Socket], [Mount], or [Swap]
    sections, depending on the unit type.</para>

    <para>In addition, options which control resources available to programs
    <emphasis>executed</emphasis> by systemd are listed in

    <title>Unified and Legacy Control Group Hierarchies</title>

    <para>The unified control group hierarchy is the new version of kernel control group interface, see
    <ulink url="https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/admin-guide/cgroup-v2.html">Control Groups v2</ulink>.
    Depending on the resource type, there are differences in resource control capabilities. Also, because of
    interface changes, some resource types have separate set of options on the unified hierarchy.</para>

            <para><literal>IO</literal>-prefixed settings are a superset of and replace
            <literal>BlockIO</literal>-prefixed ones. On unified hierarchy, IO resource control also applies

          </listitem>
        </varlistentry>

      </variablelist>
    </para>

    <para>To ease the transition, there is best-effort translation between the two versions of settings. For each
    controller, if any of the settings for the unified hierarchy are present, all settings for the legacy hierarchy are
    ignored. If the resulting settings are for the other type of hierarchy, the configurations are translated before
    application.</para>

    <para>Legacy control group hierarchy (see <ulink
    url="https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/admin-guide/cgroup-v1/">Control Groups version 1</ulink>),
    also called cgroup-v1, doesn't allow safe delegation of controllers to unprivileged processes. If the
    system uses the legacy control group hierarchy, resource control is disabled for the systemd user
    instance, see
    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>

          The default setting is 100ms. The period is clamped to the range supported by the kernel, which is [1ms, 1000ms].
          Additionally, the period is adjusted up so that the quota interval is also at least 1ms.

        <listitem>
          <para>Specify the memory usage protection of the executed processes in this unit.
          When reclaiming memory, the unit is treated as if it was using less memory resulting in memory
          to be preferentially reclaimed from unprotected units.
          Using <varname>MemoryLow=</varname> results in a weaker protection where memory may still
          be reclaimed to avoid invoking the OOM killer in case there is no other reclaimable memory.</para>
          <para>
          For a protection to be effective, it is generally required to set a corresponding
          allocation on all ancestors, which is then distributed between children
          (with the exception of the root slice).
          Any <varname>MemoryMin=</varname> or <varname>MemoryLow=</varname> allocation that is not
          explicitly distributed to specific children is used to create a shared protection for all children.
          As this is a shared protection, the children will freely compete for the memory.</para>

          <para>Takes a memory size in bytes. If the value is suffixed with K, M, G or T, the specified memory size is
          parsed as Kilobytes, Megabytes, Gigabytes, or Terabytes (with the base 1024), respectively. Alternatively, a
          percentage value may be specified, which is taken relative to the installed physical memory on the
          system. If assigned the special value <literal>infinity</literal>, all available memory is protected, which may be
          useful in order to always inherit all of the protection afforded by ancestors.
          This controls the <literal>memory.min</literal> or <literal>memory.low</literal> control group attribute.
          For details about this control group attribute, see <ulink
          url="https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/admin-guide/cgroup-v2.html#memory-interface-files">Memory Interface Files</ulink>.</para>

          <para>This setting is supported only if the unified control group hierarchy is used and disables
          <varname>MemoryLimit=</varname>.</para>

          <para>Units may have their children use a default <literal>memory.min</literal> or
          <literal>memory.low</literal> value by specifying <varname>DefaultMemoryMin=</varname> or
          <varname>DefaultMemoryLow=</varname>, which has the same semantics as
          <varname>MemoryMin=</varname> and <varname>MemoryLow=</varname>.
          This setting does not affect <literal>memory.min</literal> or <literal>memory.low</literal>
          in the unit itself.
          Using it to set a default child allocation is only useful on kernels older than 5.7,
          which do not support the <literal>memory_recursiveprot</literal> cgroup2 mount option.</para>

          above the limit if unavoidable, but the processes are heavily slowed down and memory is taken away
          aggressively in such cases. This is the main mechanism to control memory usage of a unit.</para>

          <para>Takes a memory size in bytes. If the value is suffixed with K, M, G or T, the specified memory size is

          correctly only for simpler cases, where the file system is directly placed on a partition or
          physical block device, or where simple 1:1 encryption using dm-crypt/LUKS is used. This discovery

          <constant>w</constant>, <constant>m</constant> to control <emphasis>r</emphasis>eading,
          <emphasis>w</emphasis>riting, or creation of the specific device node(s) by the unit
          (<emphasis>m</emphasis>knod), respectively. On cgroup-v1 this controls the
          <literal>devices.allow</literal> control group attribute. For details about this control group
          attribute, see <ulink
          url="https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/admin-guide/cgroup-v1/devices.html">Device Whitelist Controller</ulink>.
          In the unified cgroup hierarchy this functionality is implemented using eBPF filtering.</para>

          <para>The device node specifier is either a path to a device node in the file system, starting with
          <filename>/dev/</filename>, or a string starting with either <literal>char-</literal> or
          <literal>block-</literal> followed by a device group name, as listed in
          <filename>/proc/devices</filename>. The latter is useful to allow-list all current and future
          devices belonging to a specific device group at once. The device group is matched according to
          filename globbing rules, you may hence use the <literal>*</literal> and <literal>?</literal>
          wildcards. (Note that such globbing wildcards are not available for device node path
          specifications!) In order to match device nodes by numeric major/minor, use device node paths in
          the <filename>/dev/char/</filename> and <filename>/dev/block/</filename> directories. However,
          matching devices by major/minor is generally not recommended as assignments are neither stable nor
          portable between systems or different kernel versions.</para>

          <para>Examples: <filename>/dev/sda5</filename> is a path to a device node, referring to an ATA or
          SCSI block device. <literal>char-pts</literal> and <literal>char-alsa</literal> are specifiers for
          all pseudo TTYs and all ALSA sound devices, respectively. <literal>char-cpu/*</literal> is a
          specifier matching all CPU related device groups.</para>

          <para>Note that allow lists defined this way should only reference device groups which are
          resolvable at the time the unit is started. Any device groups not resolvable then are not added to
          the device allow list. In order to work around this limitation, consider extending service units

        <listitem>
          <para>The name of the slice unit to place the unit
          in. Defaults to <filename>system.slice</filename> for all
          non-instantiated units of all unit types (except for slice
          units themselves see below). Instance units are by default
          placed in a subslice of <filename>system.slice</filename>
          that is named after the template name.</para>

          <para>This option may be used to arrange systemd units in a
          hierarchy of slices each of which might have resource
          settings applied.</para>

          <para>For units of type slice, the only accepted value for
          this setting is the parent slice. Since the name of a slice
          unit implies the parent slice, it is hence redundant to ever
          set this parameter directly for slice units.</para>

          <para>Special care should be taken when relying on the default slice assignment in templated service units
          that have <varname>DefaultDependencies=no</varname> set, see
          <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.service</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>, section

      <varlistentry>
        <term><varname>Delegate=</varname></term>

        <listitem>
          <para>Turns on delegation of further resource control partitioning to processes of the unit. Units where this
          is enabled may create and manage their own private subhierarchy of control groups below the control group of
          the unit itself. For unprivileged services (i.e. those using the <varname>User=</varname> setting) the unit's
          control group will be made accessible to the relevant user. When enabled the service manager will refrain
          from manipulating control groups or moving processes below the unit's control group, so that a clear concept
          of ownership is established: the control group tree above the unit's control group (i.e. towards the root
          control group) is owned and managed by the service manager of the host, while the control group tree below
          the unit's control group is owned and managed by the unit itself. Takes either a boolean argument or a list
          of control group controller names. If true, delegation is turned on, and all supported controllers are
          enabled for the unit, making them available to the unit's processes for management. If false, delegation is
          turned off entirely (and no additional controllers are enabled). If set to a list of controllers, delegation
          is turned on, and the specified controllers are enabled for the unit. Note that additional controllers than
          the ones specified might be made available as well, depending on configuration of the containing slice unit
          or other units contained in it. Note that assigning the empty string will enable delegation, but reset the
          list of controllers, all assignments prior to this will have no effect.  Defaults to false.</para>

          <para>Note that controller delegation to less privileged code is only safe on the unified control group
          hierarchy. Accordingly, access to the specified controllers will not be granted to unprivileged services on
          the legacy hierarchy, even when requested.</para>

          <xi:include href="supported-controllers.xml"  xpointer="controllers-text" />

          <para>Not all of these controllers are available on all kernels however, and some are
          specific to the unified hierarchy while others are specific to the legacy hierarchy. Also note that the
          kernel might support further controllers, which aren't covered here yet as delegation is either not supported
          at all for them or not defined cleanly.</para>

        <term><varname>DisableControllers=</varname></term>

        <listitem>
          <para>Disables controllers from being enabled for a unit's children. If a controller listed is already in use
          in its subtree, the controller will be removed from the subtree. This can be used to avoid child units being
          able to implicitly or explicitly enable a controller. Defaults to not disabling any controllers.</para>

          <para>It may not be possible to successfully disable a controller if the unit or any child of the unit in
          question delegates controllers to its children, as any delegated subtree of the cgroup hierarchy is unmanaged
          by systemd.</para>

          <para>Multiple controllers may be specified, separated by spaces. You may also pass
          <varname>DisableControllers=</varname> multiple times, in which case each new instance adds another controller
          to disable. Passing <varname>DisableControllers=</varname> by itself with no controller name present resets
          the disabled controller list.</para>
