<para><filename>systemd-makefs@.service</filename>,
|
|
<filename>systemd-makeswap@.service</filename>, and
|
|
<filename>systemd-growfs@.service</filename> are used to implement the
|
|
<option>x-systemd.makefs</option> and <option>x-systemd.growfs</option> options
|
|
in <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>fstab</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
|
|
see <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.mount</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
|
|
They are instantiated for each device for which the file system or swap structure
|
|
needs to be initalized, and for each mount point where the file system needs to
|
|
be grown.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>These services are started at boot, either right before or right after the
|
|
mount point or swap device are used.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><filename>systemd-makefs</filename> knows very little about specific file
|
|
systems and swap devices, and after checking that the block device does not already
|
|
contain a file system or other content, it will execute binaries specific to
|
|
each filesystem type (<filename>/sbin/mkfs.*</filename>).</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><filename>systemd-growfs</filename> knows very little about specific file
|
|
systems and swap devices, and will instruct the kernel to grow the mounted
|
|
filesystem to full size of the underlying block device. Nevertheless, it needs
|
|
to know the
|
|
<citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>ioctl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>2</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
number specific to each file system, so only certain types are supported.
|
|
Currently:
|
|
<citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>ext4</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
|
|
btrfs (see
|
|
<citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>btrfs-man5</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>),
|
|
<!-- yes, that's what the man page is called. -->
|
|
and dm-crypt partitions (see
|
|
<citerefentry project='die-net'><refentrytitle>cryptsetup</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>).
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If the creation of a file system or swap device fails, the mount point or
|
|
swap is failed too. If the growing of a file system fails, a warning is emitted.
