TTYVTDisallocate=yes already clears the VT. agetty does not need to do
it again. Run it with --noclear.
Felix Miata found the double clearing confusing in this bugreport:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=828007
Add a comment explaining what clears the VT.
In rescue mode let's not establish all sockets, so that we don't end up
starting a lot of additional services automatically.
Instead of pulling in basic.target we now only pull in sysinit.target
which pulls in local-fs.target and swap.target. That way rescue mode has
all the really basic setup around, but normal services are not started
and not autostarted either.
This should help making the boot process a bit easier to explore and
understand for the administrator. The simple idea is that "systemctl
status" now shows a link to documentation alongside the other status and
decriptionary information of a service.
This patch adds the necessary fields to all our shipped units if we have
proper documentation for them.
RequiresMountsFor= is a shortcut for adding requires and after
dependencies to all mount units neeed for the specified paths.
This solves a couple of issues regarding dep loop cycles for encrypted
swap.
We shouldn't hardcode the name of the NTP implementation in the
timedated mechanism, especially since Fedora currently switched from NTP
to chrony.
This patch introduces a new target that is enabled/disabled instead of
the actual NTP implementation. The various NTP implementations should
then add .wants/ symlinks to their services and BindTo back to the
target, so that their implementations are started/stopped jointly with
the target.

Type=idle is much like Type=simple, however between the fork() and the
exec() in the child we wait until PID 1 informs us that no jobs are
left.
This is mostly a cosmetic fix to make gettys appear only after all boot
output is finished and complete.
Note that this does not impact the normal job logic as we do not delay
the completion of any jobs. We just delay the invocation of the actual
binary, and only for services that otherwise would be of Type=simple.
We finally got the OK from all contributors with non-trivial commits to
relicense systemd from GPL2+ to LGPL2.1+.
Some udev bits continue to be GPL2+ for now, but we are looking into
relicensing them too, to allow free copy/paste of all code within
systemd.
The bits that used to be MIT continue to be MIT.
The big benefit of the relicensing is that closed source code may now
link against libsystemd-login.so and friends.
gettys are nowadays mostly autospawned and hence usually subject to
being shut down on isolate requests, since they are no dependency of any
other unit. This is a bad idea if the user isolates between
multi-user.graphical and graphical.target, hence exclude them from the
isolation.
This has the effect that gettys no longer cleaned up when
emergency.target is isolated, which might actualy be considered a
feature, even though it is a change from previous behaviour...
Note that the one getty that really matters (the one on tty1) is still
removed when isolating to emergency.target since it conflicts with
emergency.service.
This separates user/group NSS lookups from host/network NSS lookups.
By default order all network mounts after host/network NSS lookups now,
and logind execution after user/group NSS lookups.
Especially in the case of --enable-split-usr, several units will point
to the wrong location for systemctl. Use @SYSTEMCTL@ which will always
contain the proper path.
The default setups should be a stateless as possible. /tmp as tmpfs is
the intended default for general purpose systems.
Small temporary files should not be stored on disk; lager files, or
files which should potentially survive a reboot, belong into /var/tmp.
Also catch up with some good old UNIX history.
More details are here:

Since a number of distribitions don't need this compat glue anymore drop
it from systemd upstream. Distributions which still haven't converted
to /run can steal these unit files from the git history if they need to.
udisks2 doesn't use /media anymore, instead mounts removable media in a
user-private directory beneath /run. /media is hence mostly obsolete and
hence it makes little sense to continue to mount a tmpfs to it.
Distributions should consider dropping the mount point entirely since
nothing uses it anymore.
This is an S/MIME signed message
The mount of the securityfs filesystem is now performed in the main systemd
executable as it is used by IMA to provide the interface for loading custom
policies. The unit file 'units/sys-kernel-security.mount' has been removed
because it is not longer necessary.

rc-local.service acts as an ordering barrier even if its condition is
false, because conditions are evaluated when the service is about to be
started.
To avoid the ordering barrier in a legacy-free system, add a generator
to pull rc-local.service into the transaction only if the script is
executable.
If/when we rewrite SysV compatibility into a generator, this one can become
a part of it.
Both kmsg-syslogd and the real syslog service want to receive
SCM_CREDENTIALS. With socket activation it is too late to set
SO_PASSCRED in the services.
Since Linux 3.2 in order to receive SCM_CREDENTIALS it is not sufficient
to set SO_PASSCRED just before recvmsg(). The option has to be already
set when the sender sends the message.
With socket activation it is too late to set the option in the service.
It must be set on the socket right from the start.
See the kernel commit:
16e57262 af_unix: dont send SCM_CREDENTIALS by default

DefaultStandardOutput is syslog anyway. There's no reason to assume that
the administrator would want these units to be excluded when he configures
a different DefaultStandardOutput.
This patch adds support for the Mageia Linux distribution:
http://www.mageia.org/
Mageia is a fork of Mandriva although some divergence has already occured
and thus inclusion of these changes upstream allow us to (hopefully)
migrate more rapidly to the new standard approaches systemd offers.
Indeed, we already use the preferred mechanism of OS identification via
the /etc/os-release file rather than a distro specific variation.
This patch mostly mirrors the patch added previously for Mandriva
support. In addition to those original authors, this patch was mostly
written by Dexter Morgan with help from Colin Guthrie and Eugeni Dodonov.
In order to ensure that bind mounts copy the final mount settings to the
new bind mount make the root and API FS mount options are applied before
the other file systems are mounted.

It was possible for the "ExecStartPre=-/bin/plymouth quit" to race
with plymouth-start.service which is pulled in indirectly by
basic.target -> sysinit.target.
The race left plymouth running on the terminal, making it unusable for
rescue purposes.

The mount point directory /sys/kernel/config is only created after the
module is loaded, hence there's little value in having this an automount
unit: the runtime penalty for mounting an autofs here should be the same
as for a real mount.
