- except src/udev/* which is (currently still) GPLv2, GPLv2+
REQUIREMENTS:
- Linux kernel >= 3.11
+ Linux kernel >= 3.12
Linux kernel >= 4.2 for unified cgroup hierarchy support
Kernel Config Options:
Required for CPUQuota= in resource control unit settings
CONFIG_CFS_BANDWIDTH
- For systemd-bootchart, several proc debug interfaces are required:
- CONFIG_SCHEDSTATS
- CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG
-
For UEFI systems:
CONFIG_EFIVAR_FS
CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION
glibc >= 2.16
libcap
- libmount >= 2.27 (from util-linux)
+ libmount >= 2.27.1 (from util-linux)
+ (util-linux *must* be built with --enable-libmount-force-mountinfo)
libseccomp >= 1.0.0 (optional)
libblkid >= 2.24 (from util-linux) (optional)
libkmod >= 15 (optional)
During runtime, you need the following additional
dependencies:
- util-linux >= v2.27 required
+ util-linux >= v2.27.1 required
dbus >= 1.4.0 (strictly speaking optional, but recommended)
dracut (optional)
PolicyKit (optional)
Similarly, the name resolution daemon requires the
"systemd-resolve" system user and group to exist.
- Similarly, the kdbus dbus1 proxy daemon requires the
- "systemd-bus-proxy" system user and group to exist.
+ Similarly, the coredump support requires the
+ "systemd-coredump" system user and group to exist.
NSS:
systemd ships with three NSS modules:
needs to look like, and provide an implementation at the marked places.
WARNINGS:
- systemd will freeze execution during boot if /etc/mtab exists
- but is not a symlink to /proc/mounts. Please ensure that
- /etc/mtab is a proper symlink.
-
systemd will warn you during boot if /usr is on a different
file system than /. While in systemd itself very little will
break if /usr is on a separate partition, many of its
servers if not specified otherwise at configure time. You
really should not ship an OS or device with this default
setting. See DISTRO_PORTING for details.
