59 | <para>Unit configuration files for services, sockets, mount | |
60 | points, and swap devices share a subset of configuration options | |

199 | <listitem><para>Takes a boolean parameter. If set, a UNIX user and group pair is allocated dynamically when the | |
200 | unit is started, and released as soon as it is stopped. The user and group will not be added to | |
201 | <filename>/etc/passwd</filename> or <filename>/etc/group</filename>, but are managed transiently during | |
202 | runtime. The <citerefentry><refentrytitle>nss-systemd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> | |
203 | glibc NSS module provides integration of these dynamic users/groups into the system's user and group | |
204 | databases. The user and group name to use may be configured via <varname>User=</varname> and | |
205 | <varname>Group=</varname> (see above). If these options are not used and dynamic user/group allocation is | |
206 | enabled for a unit, the name of the dynamic user/group is implicitly derived from the unit name. If the unit | |
207 | name without the type suffix qualifies as valid user name it is used directly, otherwise a name incorporating a | |
208 | hash of it is used. If a statically allocated user or group of the configured name already exists, it is used | |
209 | and no dynamic user/group is allocated. Dynamic users/groups are allocated from the UID/GID range | |
210 | 61184…65519. It is recommended to avoid this range for regular system or login users. At any point in time | |
211 | each UID/GID from this range is only assigned to zero or one dynamically allocated users/groups in | |
212 | use. However, UID/GIDs are recycled after a unit is terminated. Care should be taken that any processes running | |
213 | as part of a unit for which dynamic users/groups are enabled do not leave files or directories owned by these | |
214 | users/groups around, as a different unit might get the same UID/GID assigned later on, and thus gain access to | |
63bb64a0 | 215 | these files or directories. If <varname>DynamicUser=</varname> is enabled, <varname>RemoveIPC=</varname>, |
00d9ef85 LP |
216 | <varname>PrivateTmp=</varname> are implied. This ensures that the lifetime of IPC objects and temporary files |
217 | created by the executed processes is bound to the runtime of the service, and hence the lifetime of the dynamic | |
218 | user/group. Since <filename>/tmp</filename> and <filename>/var/tmp</filename> are usually the only | |
219 | world-writable directories on a system this ensures that a unit making use of dynamic user/group allocation | |
63bb64a0 LP |
220 | cannot leave files around after unit termination. Moreover <varname>ProtectSystem=strict</varname> and |
221 | <varname>ProtectHome=read-only</varname> are implied, thus prohibiting the service to write to arbitrary file | |
222 | system locations. In order to allow the service to write to certain directories, they have to be whitelisted | |
cfaf4b75 | 223 | using <varname>ReadWritePaths=</varname>, but care must be taken so that UID/GID recycling doesn't |
63bb64a0 LP |
224 | create security issues involving files created by the service. Use <varname>RuntimeDirectory=</varname> (see |
225 | below) in order to assign a writable runtime directory to a service, owned by the dynamic user/group and | |
226 | removed automatically when the unit is terminated. Defaults to off.</para></listitem> | |

785 | <citerefentry><refentrytitle>setrlimit</refentrytitle><manvolnum>2</manvolnum></citerefentry> for details on | |
786 | the resource limit concept. Resource limits may be specified in two formats: either as single value to set a | |
787 | specific soft and hard limit to the same value, or as colon-separated pair <option>soft:hard</option> to set | |
788 | both limits individually (e.g. <literal>LimitAS=4G:16G</literal>). Use the string <varname>infinity</varname> | |
789 | to configure no limit on a specific resource. The multiplicative suffixes K, M, G, T, P and E (to the base | |
790 | 1024) may be used for resource limits measured in bytes (e.g. LimitAS=16G). For the limits referring to time | |
791 | values, the usual time units ms, s, min, h and so on may be used (see | |
792 | <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.time</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry> for | |
793 | details). Note that if no time unit is specified for <varname>LimitCPU=</varname> the default unit of seconds | |
794 | is implied, while for <varname>LimitRTTIME=</varname> the default unit of microseconds is implied. Also, note | |
795 | that the effective granularity of the limits might influence their enforcement. For example, time limits | |
796 | specified for <varname>LimitCPU=</varname> will be rounded up implicitly to multiples of 1s. For | |
797 | <varname>LimitNICE=</varname> the value may be specified in two syntaxes: if prefixed with <literal>+</literal> | |
798 | or <literal>-</literal>, the value is understood as regular Linux nice value in the range -20..19. If not | |
799 | prefixed like this the value is understood as raw resource limit parameter in the range 0..40 (with 0 being | |
800 | equivalent to 1).</para> | |

802 | <para>Note that most process resource limits configured with | |

804 | to acquire a new set of resources that are accounted | |
805 | independently of the original process, and may thus escape | |
806 | limits set. Also note that <varname>LimitRSS=</varname> is not | |
807 | implemented on Linux, and setting it has no effect. Often it | |
808 | is advisable to prefer the resource controls listed in | |
809 | <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.resource-control</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry> | |
810 | over these per-process limits, as they apply to services as a | |
811 | whole, may be altered dynamically at runtime, and are | |
812 | generally more expressive. For example, | |
813 | <varname>MemoryLimit=</varname> is a more powerful (and | |
814 | working) replacement for <varname>LimitRSS=</varname>.</para> | |

1420 | <listitem><para>Takes a space-separated list of system call names. If this setting is used, all system calls |

1429 | <function>rt_sigreturn</function>, <function>sigreturn</function> system calls and the system calls for | |

1442 | of the service binary — if it is blocked service invocation will necessarily fail. Also, if execution of the | |
1443 | service binary fails for some reason (for example: missing service executable), the error handling logic might | |
1444 | require access to an additional set of system calls in order to process and log this failure correctly. It | |

1452 | occurrences of this option will add or delete the listed | |

1613 | the special identifier <constant>native</constant>. Only system calls of the specified architectures will be | |
1614 | permitted to processes of this unit. This is an effective way to disable compatibility with non-native | |
1615 | architectures for processes, for example to prohibit execution of 32-bit x86 binaries on 64-bit x86-64 | |
1616 | systems. The special <constant>native</constant> identifier implicitly maps to the native architecture of the | |
1617 | system (or more strictly: to the architecture the system manager is compiled for). If running in user mode, or | |
1618 | in system mode, but without the <constant>CAP_SYS_ADMIN</constant> capability (e.g. setting | |
1619 | <varname>User=nobody</varname>), <varname>NoNewPrivileges=yes</varname> is implied. Note that setting this | |

1621 | set to the empty list, i.e. no system call architecture filtering is applied.</para> | |
1622 | ||
1623 | <para>Note that system call filtering is not equally effective on all architectures. For example, on x86 | |
1624 | filtering of network socket-related calls is not possible, due to ABI limitations — a limitation that x86-64 | |
1625 | does not have, however. On systems supporting multiple ABIs at the same time — such as x86/x86-64 — it is hence | |
1626 | recommended to limit the set of permitted system call architectures so that secondary ABIs may not be used to | |
1627 | circumvent the restrictions applied to the native ABI of the system. In particular, setting | |
c29ebc1a | 1628 | <varname>SystemCallArchitectures=native</varname> is a good choice for disabling non-native ABIs.</para> |
