232 | <listitem><para>Takes a boolean parameter. If set, a UNIX user and group pair is allocated dynamically when the | |

234 | <filename>/etc/passwd</filename> or <filename>/etc/group</filename>, but are managed transiently during | |
235 | runtime. The <citerefentry><refentrytitle>nss-systemd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> | |
236 | glibc NSS module provides integration of these dynamic users/groups into the system's user and group | |
237 | databases. The user and group name to use may be configured via <varname>User=</varname> and | |
238 | <varname>Group=</varname> (see above). If these options are not used and dynamic user/group allocation is | |
239 | enabled for a unit, the name of the dynamic user/group is implicitly derived from the unit name. If the unit | |
240 | name without the type suffix qualifies as valid user name it is used directly, otherwise a name incorporating a | |
241 | hash of it is used. If a statically allocated user or group of the configured name already exists, it is used | |
3bd493dc | 242 | and no dynamic user/group is allocated. Note that if <varname>User=</varname> is specified and the static group |
b8afec21 LP |
243 | with the name exists, then it is required that the static user with the name already exists. Similarly, if |
244 | <varname>Group=</varname> is specified and the static user with the name exists, then it is required that the | |
245 | static group with the name already exists. Dynamic users/groups are allocated from the UID/GID range | |
29206d46 LP |
246 | 61184…65519. It is recommended to avoid this range for regular system or login users. At any point in time |
247 | each UID/GID from this range is only assigned to zero or one dynamically allocated users/groups in | |
248 | use. However, UID/GIDs are recycled after a unit is terminated. Care should be taken that any processes running | |
249 | as part of a unit for which dynamic users/groups are enabled do not leave files or directories owned by these | |
250 | users/groups around, as a different unit might get the same UID/GID assigned later on, and thus gain access to | |
63bb64a0 | 251 | these files or directories. If <varname>DynamicUser=</varname> is enabled, <varname>RemoveIPC=</varname>, |
00d9ef85 LP |
252 | <varname>PrivateTmp=</varname> are implied. This ensures that the lifetime of IPC objects and temporary files |
253 | created by the executed processes is bound to the runtime of the service, and hence the lifetime of the dynamic | |
254 | user/group. Since <filename>/tmp</filename> and <filename>/var/tmp</filename> are usually the only | |
255 | world-writable directories on a system this ensures that a unit making use of dynamic user/group allocation | |
63bb64a0 LP |
256 | cannot leave files around after unit termination. Moreover <varname>ProtectSystem=strict</varname> and |
257 | <varname>ProtectHome=read-only</varname> are implied, thus prohibiting the service to write to arbitrary file | |
258 | system locations. In order to allow the service to write to certain directories, they have to be whitelisted | |
4a628360 LP |
259 | using <varname>ReadWritePaths=</varname>, but care must be taken so that UID/GID recycling doesn't create |
260 | security issues involving files created by the service. Use <varname>RuntimeDirectory=</varname> (see below) in | |
261 | order to assign a writable runtime directory to a service, owned by the dynamic user/group and removed | |
262 | automatically when the unit is terminated. Use <varname>StateDirectory=</varname>, | |
263 | <varname>CacheDirectory=</varname> and <varname>LogsDirectory=</varname> in order to assign a set of writable | |
264 | directories for specific purposes to the service in a way that they are protected from vulnerabilities due to | |
265 | UID reuse (see below). Defaults to off.</para></listitem> | |

298 | will however be associated with the session scope unit only. This has implications when used in combination | |
299 | with <varname>NotifyAccess=</varname><option>all</option>, as these child processes will not be able to affect | |
300 | changes in the original unit through notification messages. These messages will be considered belonging to the | |

321 | <constant>CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE</constant>, <constant>CAP_SYS_PTRACE</constant>. Capabilities listed will be | |
322 | included in the bounding set, all others are removed. If the list of capabilities is prefixed with | |
323 | <literal>~</literal>, all but the listed capabilities will be included, the effect of the assignment | |
324 | inverted. Note that this option also affects the respective capabilities in the effective, permitted and | |
325 | inheritable capability sets. If this option is not used, the capability bounding set is not modified on process | |
326 | execution, hence no limits on the capabilities of the process are enforced. This option may appear more than | |
327 | once, in which case the bounding sets are merged by <constant>AND</constant>, or by <constant>OR</constant> if | |
328 | the lines are prefixed with <literal>~</literal> (see below). If the empty string is assigned to this option, | |
329 | the bounding set is reset to the empty capability set, and all prior settings have no effect. If set to | |
330 | <literal>~</literal> (without any further argument), the bounding set is reset to the full set of available | |
331 | capabilities, also undoing any previous settings. This does not affect commands prefixed with | |

472 | <citerefentry><refentrytitle>setrlimit</refentrytitle><manvolnum>2</manvolnum></citerefentry> for details on | |
473 | the resource limit concept. Resource limits may be specified in two formats: either as single value to set a | |
474 | specific soft and hard limit to the same value, or as colon-separated pair <option>soft:hard</option> to set | |
475 | both limits individually (e.g. <literal>LimitAS=4G:16G</literal>). Use the string <option>infinity</option> to | |
476 | configure no limit on a specific resource. The multiplicative suffixes K, M, G, T, P and E (to the base 1024) | |
477 | may be used for resource limits measured in bytes (e.g. LimitAS=16G). For the limits referring to time values, | |
478 | the usual time units ms, s, min, h and so on may be used (see | |
479 | <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.time</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry> for | |
480 | details). Note that if no time unit is specified for <varname>LimitCPU=</varname> the default unit of seconds | |
481 | is implied, while for <varname>LimitRTTIME=</varname> the default unit of microseconds is implied. Also, note | |
482 | that the effective granularity of the limits might influence their enforcement. For example, time limits | |
483 | specified for <varname>LimitCPU=</varname> will be rounded up implicitly to multiples of 1s. For | |
484 | <varname>LimitNICE=</varname> the value may be specified in two syntaxes: if prefixed with <literal>+</literal> | |
485 | or <literal>-</literal>, the value is understood as regular Linux nice value in the range -20..19. If not | |
486 | prefixed like this the value is understood as raw resource limit parameter in the range 0..40 (with 0 being | |
487 | equivalent to 1).</para> | |
fc8d0381 | 488 | |
b8afec21 LP |
489 | <para>Note that most process resource limits configured with these options are per-process, and processes may |
490 | fork in order to acquire a new set of resources that are accounted independently of the original process, and | |
491 | may thus escape limits set. Also note that <varname>LimitRSS=</varname> is not implemented on Linux, and | |
492 | setting it has no effect. Often it is advisable to prefer the resource controls listed in | |
493 | <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.resource-control</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry> | |
494 | over these per-process limits, as they apply to services as a whole, may be altered dynamically at runtime, and | |
495 | are generally more expressive. For example, <varname>MemoryLimit=</varname> is a more powerful (and working) | |
496 | replacement for <varname>LimitRSS=</varname>.</para> | |

1243 | the effect is inverted: only the listed system calls will result in immediate process termination | |
8cfa775f YW |
1244 | (blacklisting). Blacklisted system calls and system call groups may optionally be suffixed with a colon |
1245 | (<literal>:</literal>) and <literal>errno</literal> error number (between 0 and 4095) or errno name such as | |
1246 | <constant>EPERM</constant>, <constant>EACCES</constant> or <constant>EUCLEAN</constant>. This value will be | |
b8afec21 LP |
1247 | returned when a blacklisted system call is triggered, instead of terminating the processes immediately. This |
1248 | value takes precedence over the one given in <varname>SystemCallErrorNumber=</varname>. If running in user | |
1249 | mode, or in system mode, but without the <constant>CAP_SYS_ADMIN</constant> capability (e.g. setting | |
1250 | <varname>User=nobody</varname>), <varname>NoNewPrivileges=yes</varname> is implied. This feature makes use of | |
1251 | the Secure Computing Mode 2 interfaces of the kernel ('seccomp filtering') and is useful for enforcing a | |
1252 | minimal sandboxing environment. Note that the <function>execve</function>, <function>exit</function>, | |
1253 | <function>exit_group</function>, <function>getrlimit</function>, <function>rt_sigreturn</function>, | |
1254 | <function>sigreturn</function> system calls and the system calls for querying time and sleeping are implicitly | |
1255 | whitelisted and do not need to be listed explicitly. This option may be specified more than once, in which case | |
1256 | the filter masks are merged. If the empty string is assigned, the filter is reset, all prior assignments will | |
1257 | have no effect. This does not affect commands prefixed with <literal>+</literal>.</para> | |

1259 | <para>Note that on systems supporting multiple ABIs (such as x86/x86-64) it is recommended to turn off |
1260 | alternative ABIs for services, so that they cannot be used to circumvent the restrictions of this | |
1261 | option. Specifically, it is recommended to combine this option with | |
1262 | <varname>SystemCallArchitectures=native</varname> or similar.</para> | |
1263 | ||
2ca8dc15 LP |
1264 | <para>Note that strict system call filters may impact execution and error handling code paths of the service |
1265 | invocation. Specifically, access to the <function>execve</function> system call is required for the execution | |
1266 | of the service binary — if it is blocked service invocation will necessarily fail. Also, if execution of the | |
1267 | service binary fails for some reason (for example: missing service executable), the error handling logic might | |
1268 | require access to an additional set of system calls in order to process and log this failure correctly. It | |
1269 | might be necessary to temporarily disable system call filters in order to simplify debugging of such | |
1270 | failures.</para> | |

1272 | <para>If you specify both types of this option (i.e. whitelisting and blacklisting), the first encountered |
1273 | will take precedence and will dictate the default action (termination or approval of a system call). Then the | |
1274 | next occurrences of this option will add or delete the listed system calls from the set of the filtered system | |
1275 | calls, depending of its type and the default action. (For example, if you have started with a whitelisting of | |
1276 | <function>read</function> and <function>write</function>, and right after it add a blacklisting of | |
1277 | <function>write</function>, then <function>write</function> will be removed from the set.)</para> | |

1432 | permitted to processes of this unit. This is an effective way to disable compatibility with non-native | |
1433 | architectures for processes, for example to prohibit execution of 32-bit x86 binaries on 64-bit x86-64 | |
1434 | systems. The special <constant>native</constant> identifier implicitly maps to the native architecture of the | |
1435 | system (or more strictly: to the architecture the system manager is compiled for). If running in user mode, or | |

1441 | <para>Note that system call filtering is not equally effective on all architectures. For example, on x86 | |
1442 | filtering of network socket-related calls is not possible, due to ABI limitations — a limitation that x86-64 | |
1443 | does not have, however. On systems supporting multiple ABIs at the same time — such as x86/x86-64 — it is hence | |
1444 | recommended to limit the set of permitted system call architectures so that secondary ABIs may not be used to | |
1445 | circumvent the restrictions applied to the native ABI of the system. In particular, setting | |

1599 | EOF.</para> | |
1600 | ||
1601 | <para>The <option>file:<replaceable>path</replaceable></option> option may be used to connect a specific file | |

1603 | which may refer to a regular file, a FIFO or special file. If an <constant>AF_UNIX</constant> socket in the | |
1604 | file system is specified, a stream socket is connected to it. The latter is useful for connecting standard | |
1605 | input of processes to arbitrary system services.</para> | |
1606 | ||
1607 | <para>The <option>socket</option> option is valid in socket-activated services only, and requires the relevant | |

1610 | to have <varname>Accept=yes</varname> set, or to specify a single socket only. If this option is set, standard | |
1611 | input will be connected to the socket the service was activated from, which is primarily useful for | |

1668 | <varname>StandardInputText=</varname>, see above. If standard input and output are directed to the same file | |
1669 | path, it is opened only once, for reading as well as writing and duplicated. This is particular useful when the | |
1670 | specified path refers to an <constant>AF_UNIX</constant> socket in the file system, as in that case only a | |
1671 | single stream connection is created for both input and output.</para> | |
1672 | ||
1673 | <para><option>socket</option> connects standard output to a socket acquired via socket activation. The | |
1674 | semantics are similar to the same option of <varname>StandardInput=</varname>, see above.</para> | |
1675 | ||
1676 | <para>The <option>fd:<replaceable>name</replaceable></option> option connects standard output to a specific, | |
1677 | named file descriptor provided by a socket unit. A name may be specified as part of this option, following a | |
1678 | <literal>:</literal> character (e.g. <literal>fd:foobar</literal>). If no name is specified, the name | |
1679 | <literal>stdout</literal> is implied (i.e. <literal>fd</literal> is equivalent to | |
1680 | <literal>fd:stdout</literal>). At least one socket unit defining the specified name must be provided via the | |
1681 | <varname>Sockets=</varname> option, and the file descriptor name may differ from the name of its containing | |
1682 | socket unit. If multiple matches are found, the first one will be used. See | |
1683 | <varname>FileDescriptorName=</varname> in | |
1684 | <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.socket</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry> for more | |
1685 | details about named descriptors and their ordering.</para> | |
1686 | ||
1687 | <para>If the standard output (or error output, see below) of a unit is connected to the journal, syslog or the | |
1688 | kernel log buffer, the unit will implicitly gain a dependency of type <varname>After=</varname> on | |
1689 | <filename>systemd-journald.socket</filename> (also see the "Implicit Dependencies" section above). Also note | |
1690 | that in this case stdout (or stderr, see below) will be an <constant>AF_UNIX</constant> stream socket, and not | |
1691 | a pipe or FIFO that can be re-opened. This means when executing shell scripts the construct <command>echo | |
1692 | "hello" > /dev/stderr</command> for writing text to stderr will not work. To mitigate this use the construct | |
1693 | <command>echo "hello" >&2</command> instead, which is mostly equivalent and avoids this pitfall.</para> | |
