64 | <para>This man page lists the configuration options shared by | |
65 | these four unit types. See | |

146 | ||
147 | <listitem><para>Takes a boolean parameter. If set, a UNIX user and group pair is allocated dynamically when the | |
148 | unit is started, and released as soon as it is stopped. The user and group will not be added to | |
149 | <filename>/etc/passwd</filename> or <filename>/etc/group</filename>, but are managed transiently during | |
150 | runtime. The <citerefentry><refentrytitle>nss-systemd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> | |
151 | glibc NSS module provides integration of these dynamic users/groups into the system's user and group | |
152 | databases. The user and group name to use may be configured via <varname>User=</varname> and | |
153 | <varname>Group=</varname> (see above). If these options are not used and dynamic user/group allocation is | |
154 | enabled for a unit, the name of the dynamic user/group is implicitly derived from the unit name. If the unit | |
155 | name without the type suffix qualifies as valid user name it is used directly, otherwise a name incorporating a | |
156 | hash of it is used. If a statically allocated user or group of the configured name already exists, it is used | |
157 | and no dynamic user/group is allocated. Dynamic users/groups are allocated from the UID/GID range | |
158 | 61184…65519. It is recommended to avoid this range for regular system or login users. At any point in time | |
159 | each UID/GID from this range is only assigned to zero or one dynamically allocated users/groups in | |
160 | use. However, UID/GIDs are recycled after a unit is terminated. Care should be taken that any processes running | |
161 | as part of a unit for which dynamic users/groups are enabled do not leave files or directories owned by these | |
162 | users/groups around, as a different unit might get the same UID/GID assigned later on, and thus gain access to | |
163 | these files or directories. If <varname>DynamicUser=</varname> is enabled, <varname>PrivateTmp=</varname> is | |
164 | implied. This ensures that the lifetime of temporary files created by the executed processes is bound to the | |
165 | runtime of the service, and hence the lifetime of the dynamic user/group. Since <filename>/tmp</filename> and | |
166 | <filename>/var/tmp</filename> are usually the only world-writable directories on a system this ensures that a | |
167 | unit making use of dynamic user/group allocation cannot leave files around after unit termination. Use | |
168 | <varname>RuntimeDirectory=</varname> (see below) in order to assign a writable runtime directory to a service, | |
169 | owned by the dynamic user/group and removed automatically when the unit is terminated. Defaults to | |
170 | off.</para></listitem> | |

659 | <citerefentry><refentrytitle>setrlimit</refentrytitle><manvolnum>2</manvolnum></citerefentry> for details on | |
660 | the resource limit concept. Resource limits may be specified in two formats: either as single value to set a | |
661 | specific soft and hard limit to the same value, or as colon-separated pair <option>soft:hard</option> to set | |
662 | both limits individually (e.g. <literal>LimitAS=4G:16G</literal>). Use the string <varname>infinity</varname> | |
663 | to configure no limit on a specific resource. The multiplicative suffixes K, M, G, T, P and E (to the base | |
664 | 1024) may be used for resource limits measured in bytes (e.g. LimitAS=16G). For the limits referring to time | |
665 | values, the usual time units ms, s, min, h and so on may be used (see | |
666 | <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.time</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry> for | |
667 | details). Note that if no time unit is specified for <varname>LimitCPU=</varname> the default unit of seconds | |
668 | is implied, while for <varname>LimitRTTIME=</varname> the default unit of microseconds is implied. Also, note | |
669 | that the effective granularity of the limits might influence their enforcement. For example, time limits | |
670 | specified for <varname>LimitCPU=</varname> will be rounded up implicitly to multiples of 1s. For | |
671 | <varname>LimitNICE=</varname> the value may be specified in two syntaxes: if prefixed with <literal>+</literal> | |
672 | or <literal>-</literal>, the value is understood as regular Linux nice value in the range -20..19. If not | |
673 | prefixed like this the value is understood as raw resource limit parameter in the range 0..40 (with 0 being | |
674 | equivalent to 1).</para> | |
a4c18002 LP |
675 | |
676 | <para>Note that most process resource limits configured with | |
677 | these options are per-process, and processes may fork in order | |
678 | to acquire a new set of resources that are accounted | |
679 | independently of the original process, and may thus escape | |
680 | limits set. Also note that <varname>LimitRSS=</varname> is not | |
681 | implemented on Linux, and setting it has no effect. Often it | |
682 | is advisable to prefer the resource controls listed in | |
683 | <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.resource-control</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry> | |
684 | over these per-process limits, as they apply to services as a | |
685 | whole, may be altered dynamically at runtime, and are | |
686 | generally more expressive. For example, | |
687 | <varname>MemoryLimit=</varname> is a more powerful (and | |
688 | working) replacement for <varname>LimitRSS=</varname>.</para> | |
