This did not really work out as we had hoped. Trying to do this upstream introduced several problems that probably makes it better suited as a downstream patch after all. At any rate, it is not releaseable in the current state, so we at least need to revert this before the release. * by adjusting the path to binaries, but not do the same thing to the search path we end up with inconsistent man-pages. Adjusting the search path too would be quite messy, and it is not at all obvious that this is worth the effort, but at any rate it would have to be done before we could ship this. * this means that distributed man-pages does not make sense as they depend on config options, and for better or worse we are still distributing man pages, so that is something that definitely needs sorting out before we could ship with this patch. * we have long held that split-usr is only minimally supported in order to boot, and something we hope will eventually go away. So before we start adding even more magic/effort in order to make this work nicely, we should probably question if it makes sense at all.

<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>Scope units are not configured via unit configuration files,
|
|
but are only created programmatically using the bus interfaces of
|
|
systemd. They are named similar to filenames. A unit whose name
|
|
ends in <literal>.scope</literal> refers to a scope unit. Scopes
|
|
units manage a set of system processes. Unlike service units, scope
|
|
units manage externally created processes, and do not fork off
|
|
processes on its own.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The main purpose of scope units is grouping worker processes
|
|
of a system service for organization and for managing resources.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><command>systemd-run <option>--scope</option></command> may
|
|
be used to easily launch a command in a new scope unit from the
|
|
command line.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>See the <ulink
|
|
url="http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/ControlGroupInterface/">New
|
|
Control Group Interfaces</ulink> for an introduction on how to make
|
|
use of scope units from programs.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Unless <varname>DefaultDependencies=false</varname>
|
|
is used, scope units will implicitly have dependencies of
|
|
type <varname>Conflicts=</varname> and
|
|
<varname>Before=</varname> on
|
|
<filename>shutdown.target</filename>. These ensure
|
|
that scope units are removed prior to system
|
|
shutdown. Only scope units involved with early boot or
|
|
late system shutdown should disable this option.
