    <title>Description</title>

    <para>systemd is a system and service manager for Linux operating
    systems. When run as first process on boot (as PID 1), it acts as
    init system that brings up and maintains userspace
    services.</para>

    <para>For compatibility with SysV, if systemd is called as
    <command>init</command> and a PID that is not 1, it will execute
    <command>telinit</command> and pass all command line arguments
    unmodified. That means <command>init</command> and
    <command>telinit</command> are mostly equivalent when invoked from
    normal login sessions. See
    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>telinit</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>
    for more information.</para>

    <para>When run as a system instance, systemd interprets the
    configuration file <filename>system.conf</filename> and the files
    in <filename>system.conf.d</filename> directories; when run as a
    user instance, systemd interprets the configuration file
    <filename>user.conf</filename> and the files in
    <filename>user.conf.d</filename> directories. See
    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-system.conf</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>

        does the opposite, running a user instance even if the process
        ID is 1. Normally, it should not be necessary to pass these
        options, as systemd automatically detects the mode it is
        started in. These options are hence of little use except for
        debugging. Note that it is not supported booting and
        maintaining a full system with systemd running in
        <option>--system</option> mode, but PID not 1. In practice,
        passing <option>--system</option> explicitly is only useful in

    <title>Concepts</title>

    <para>systemd provides a dependency system between various
    entities called "units" of 11 different types. Units encapsulate
    various objects that are relevant for system boot-up and
    maintenance. The majority of units are configured in unit
    configuration files, whose syntax and basic set of options is
    described in
    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.unit</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
    however some are created automatically from other configuration,
    dynamically from system state or programmatically at runtime.
    Units may be "active" (meaning started, bound, plugged in, …,
    depending on the unit type, see below), or "inactive" (meaning
    stopped, unbound, unplugged, …), as well as in the process of
    being activated or deactivated, i.e. between the two states (these
    states are called "activating", "deactivating"). A special
    "failed" state is available as well, which is very similar to
    "inactive" and is entered when the service failed in some way
    (process returned error code on exit, or crashed, an operation
    timed out, or after too many restarts). If this state is entered,
    the cause will be logged, for later reference. Note that the
    various unit types may have a number of additional substates,
    which are mapped to the five generalized unit states described
    here.</para>

    <para>The following unit types are available:</para>

    <orderedlist>
      <listitem><para>Service units, which start and control daemons
      and the processes they consist of. For details, see
      <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.service</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para></listitem>

      <listitem><para>Socket units, which encapsulate local IPC or
      network sockets in the system, useful for socket-based
      activation. For details about socket units, see
      <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.socket</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
      for details on socket-based activation and other forms of
      activation, see
      <citerefentry><refentrytitle>daemon</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para></listitem>

      <listitem><para>Target units are useful to group units, or
      provide well-known synchronization points during boot-up, see
      <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.target</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para></listitem>

      <listitem><para>Device units expose kernel devices in systemd
      and may be used to implement device-based activation. For
      details, see
      <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.device</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para></listitem>

      <listitem><para>Mount units control mount points in the file
      system, for details see
      <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.mount</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para></listitem>

      <listitem><para>Automount units provide automount capabilities,
      for on-demand mounting of file systems as well as parallelized
      boot-up. See
      <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.automount</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para></listitem>

      <listitem><para>Timer units are useful for triggering activation
      of other units based on timers. You may find details in
      <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.timer</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para></listitem>

      <listitem><para>Swap units are very similar to mount units and
      encapsulate memory swap partitions or files of the operating
      system. They are described in
      <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.swap</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para></listitem>

      <listitem><para>Path units may be used to activate other
      services when file system objects change or are modified. See
      <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.path</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para></listitem>

      <listitem><para>Slice units may be used to group units which
      manage system processes (such as service and scope units) in a
      hierarchical tree for resource management purposes. See
      <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.slice</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para></listitem>

      <listitem><para>Scope units are similar to service units, but
      manage foreign processes instead of starting them as well. See
      <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.scope</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para></listitem>

    </orderedlist>

    <para>Units are named as their configuration files. Some units
    have special semantics. A detailed list is available in
    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.special</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>

    <para>systemd knows various kinds of dependencies, including
    positive and negative requirement dependencies (i.e.
    <varname>Requires=</varname> and <varname>Conflicts=</varname>) as
    well as ordering dependencies (<varname>After=</varname> and
    <varname>Before=</varname>). NB: ordering and requirement
    dependencies are orthogonal. If only a requirement dependency
    exists between two units (e.g. <filename>foo.service</filename>
    requires <filename>bar.service</filename>), but no ordering
    dependency (e.g. <filename>foo.service</filename> after
    <filename>bar.service</filename>) and both are requested to start,
    they will be started in parallel. It is a common pattern that both
    requirement and ordering dependencies are placed between two
    units. Also note that the majority of dependencies are implicitly
    created and maintained by systemd. In most cases, it should be
    unnecessary to declare additional dependencies manually, however
    it is possible to do this.</para>

    <para>Application programs and units (via dependencies) may
    request state changes of units. In systemd, these requests are
    encapsulated as 'jobs' and maintained in a job queue. Jobs may
    succeed or can fail, their execution is ordered based on the
    ordering dependencies of the units they have been scheduled
    for.</para>

    <para>On boot systemd activates the target unit
    <filename>default.target</filename> whose job is to activate
    on-boot services and other on-boot units by pulling them in via
    dependencies. Usually, the unit name is just an alias (symlink) for
    either <filename>graphical.target</filename> (for fully-featured
    boots into the UI) or <filename>multi-user.target</filename> (for
    limited console-only boots for use in embedded or server
    environments, or similar; a subset of graphical.target). However,
    it is at the discretion of the administrator to configure it as an
    alias to any other target unit. See
    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.special</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>
    for details about these target units.</para>

    <para>systemd only keeps a minimal set of units loaded into memory. Specifically, the only units that are kept
    loaded into memory are those for which at least one of the following conditions is true:</para>

    <orderedlist>
      <listitem><para>It is in an active, activating, deactivating or failed state (i.e. in any unit state except for <literal>inactive</literal>)</para></listitem>
      <listitem><para>It has a job queued for it</para></listitem>
      <listitem><para>It is a dependency of some sort of at least one other unit that is loaded into memory</para></listitem>
      <listitem><para>It has some form of resource still allocated (e.g. a service unit that is inactive but for which
      a process is still lingering that ignored the request to be terminated)</para></listitem>
      <listitem><para>It has been pinned into memory programmatically by a D-Bus call</para></listitem>
    </orderedlist>

    <para>systemd will automatically and implicitly load units from disk — if they are not loaded yet — as soon as
    operations are requested for them. Thus, in many respects, the fact whether a unit is loaded or not is invisible to
    clients. Use <command>systemctl list-units --all</command> to comprehensively list all units currently loaded. Any
    unit for which none of the conditions above applies is promptly unloaded. Note that when a unit is unloaded from
    memory its accounting data is flushed out too. However, this data is generally not lost, as a journal log record
    is generated declaring the consumed resources whenever a unit shuts down.</para>

    <para>Processes systemd spawns are placed in individual Linux
    control groups named after the unit which they belong to in the
    private systemd hierarchy. (see <ulink
    url="https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/cgroup-v1/cgroups.txt">cgroups.txt</ulink>
    for more information about control groups, or short "cgroups").
    systemd uses this to effectively keep track of processes. Control
    group information is maintained in the kernel, and is accessible
    via the file system hierarchy (beneath
    <filename>/sys/fs/cgroup/systemd/</filename>), or in tools such as
    <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>systemd-cgls</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
    or
    <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>ps</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
    (<command>ps xawf -eo pid,user,cgroup,args</command> is
    particularly useful to list all processes and the systemd units
    they belong to.).</para>

    <para>systemd is compatible with the SysV init system to a large
    degree: SysV init scripts are supported and simply read as an
    alternative (though limited) configuration file format. The SysV
    <filename>/dev/initctl</filename> interface is provided, and
    compatibility implementations of the various SysV client tools are
    available. In addition to that, various established Unix
    functionality such as <filename>/etc/fstab</filename> or the
    <filename>utmp</filename> database are supported.</para>

    <para>systemd has a minimal transaction system: if a unit is
    requested to start up or shut down it will add it and all its
    dependencies to a temporary transaction. Then, it will verify if
    the transaction is consistent (i.e. whether the ordering of all
    units is cycle-free). If it is not, systemd will try to fix it up,
    and removes non-essential jobs from the transaction that might
    remove the loop. Also, systemd tries to suppress non-essential
    jobs in the transaction that would stop a running service. Finally
    it is checked whether the jobs of the transaction contradict jobs
    that have already been queued, and optionally the transaction is
    aborted then. If all worked out and the transaction is consistent
    and minimized in its impact it is merged with all already
    outstanding jobs and added to the run queue. Effectively this
    means that before executing a requested operation, systemd will
    verify that it makes sense, fixing it if possible, and only
    failing if it really cannot work.</para>

    <para>Note that transactions are generated independently of a unit's
    state at runtime, hence, for example, if a start job is requested on an
    already started unit, it will still generate a transaction and wake up any
    inactive dependencies (and cause propagation of other jobs as per the
    defined relationships). This is because the enqueued job is at the time of
    execution compared to the target unit's state and is marked successful and
    complete when both satisfy. However, this job also pulls in other
    dependencies due to the defined relationships and thus leads to, in our
    our example, start jobs for any of those inactive units getting queued as
    well.</para>

    <para>systemd contains native implementations of various tasks
    that need to be executed as part of the boot process. For example,
    it sets the hostname or configures the loopback network device. It
    also sets up and mounts various API file systems, such as
    <filename>/sys</filename> or <filename>/proc</filename>.</para>

    ideas behind systemd, please refer to the
