System and Service Manager systemd is a suite of basic building blocks for a Linux system. It provides a system and service manager that runs as PID 1 and starts the rest of the system.

This still needs some love in systemd upstream to be a smooth ride, but we definitely would like to go this way sooner or later, even for the normal desktops. Add an option for service units to temporarily …

systemd-boot reads simple and entirely generic boot loader configuration files; one file per boot loader entry to select from. All files need to reside on the ESP.

[FINAL] Change the Github Pages branch to the newly created branch (https://github.com/systemd/systemd/settings/pages) and set the ‘Custom domain’ to ‘systemd.io’

A: By default, systemd places all systemd daemons in their own cgroup in the “cpu” hierarchy. Unfortunately, due to a kernel limitation, this has the effect of disallowing RT entirely for the service.

systemd can interface with the boot loader to receive performance data and other information, and pass control information. This is only supported on EFI systems.

When you have systemd running to the extent that it can provide you with a shell, please use it to extract useful information for debugging. Boot with these parameters on the kernel command line:

Most of those tests should be able to run via systemd-nspawn, which is orders-of-magnitude faster than qemu, but some tests require privileged operations like using dm-crypt or loopdev.

systemd (since version 239) supports a concept of “Portable Services”. “Portable Services” are a delivery method for system services that uses two specific features of container management:
