Other Forms of Activation
- Other forms of activation have been suggested and
- implemented in some systems. However, there are often simpler or
- better alternatives, or they can be put together of combinations
- of the schemes above. Example: Sometimes, it appears useful to
- start daemons or .socket units when a
- specific IP address is configured on a network interface,
- because network sockets shall be bound to the address. However,
- an alternative to implement this is by utilizing the Linux
- IP_FREEBIND socket option, as accessible
- via FreeBind=yes in systemd socket files (see
- systemd.socket5
- for details). This option, when enabled, allows sockets to be
- bound to a non-local, not configured IP address, and hence
- allows bindings to a particular IP address before it actually
- becomes available, making such an explicit dependency to the
- configured address redundant. Another often suggested trigger
- for service activation is low system load. However, here too, a
- more convincing approach might be to make proper use of features
- of the operating system, in particular, the CPU or I/O scheduler
- of Linux. Instead of scheduling jobs from userspace based on
- monitoring the OS scheduler, it is advisable to leave the
- scheduling of processes to the OS scheduler itself. systemd
