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>Preset files may be used to encode policy which units shall
|
|
be enabled by default and which ones shall be disabled. They are
|
|
read by <command>systemctl preset</command> (for more information
|
|
see
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemctl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>)
|
|
which uses this information to enable or disable a unit according
|
|
to preset policy. <command>systemctl preset</command> is used by
|
|
the post install scriptlets of RPM packages (or other OS package
|
|
formats), to enable/disable specific units by default on package
|
|
installation, enforcing distribution, spin or administrator preset
|
|
policy. This allows choosing a certain set of units to be
|
|
enabled/disabled even before installing the actual package.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>For more information on the preset logic please have a look
|
|
at the <ulink
|
|
url="http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/Preset">Presets</ulink>
|
|
document.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>It is not recommended to ship preset files within the
|
|
respective software packages implementing the units, but rather
|
|
centralize them in a distribution or spin default policy, which
|
|
can be amended by administrator policy.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If no preset files exist, <command>systemctl
|
|
preset</command> will enable all units that are installed by
|
|
default. If this is not desired and all units shall rather be
|
|
disabled, it is necessary to ship a preset file with a single,
|
|
catchall "<filename>disable *</filename>" line. (See example 1,
|
|
below.)</para>

<title>Preset File Format</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>The preset files contain a list of directives consisting of
|
|
either the word <literal>enable</literal> or
|
|
<literal>disable</literal> followed by a space and a unit name
|
|
(possibly with shell style wildcards), separated by newlines.
|
|
Empty lines and lines whose first non-whitespace character is # or
|
|
; are ignored.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Two different directives are understood:
|
|
<literal>enable</literal> may be used to enable units by default,
|
|
<literal>disable</literal> to disable units by default.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If multiple lines apply to a unit name, the first matching
|
|
one takes precedence over all others.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Each preset file shall be named in the style of
|
|
<filename><priority>-<program>.conf</filename>. Files
|
|
in <filename>/etc/</filename> override files with the same name in
|
|
<filename>/usr/lib/</filename> and <filename>/run/</filename>.
|
|
Files in <filename>/run/</filename> override files with the same
|
|
name in <filename>/usr/lib/</filename>. Packages should install
|
|
their preset files in <filename>/usr/lib/</filename>. Files in
|
|
<filename>/etc/</filename> are reserved for the local
|
|
administrator, who may use this logic to override the preset files
|
|
installed by vendor packages. All preset files are sorted by their
|
|
filename in lexicographic order, regardless of which of the
|
|
directories they reside in. If multiple files specify the same
|
|
unit name, the entry in the file with the lexicographically
|
|
earliest name will be applied. It is recommended to prefix all
|
|
filenames with a two-digit number and a dash, to simplify the
|
|
ordering of the files.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If the administrator wants to disable a preset file supplied
|
|
by the vendor, the recommended way is to place a symlink to
|
|
<filename>/dev/null</filename> in
|
|
<filename>/etc/systemd/system-preset/</filename> bearing the same
|
|
filename.</para>

<title>Example</title>
|
|
|
|
<example>
|
|
<title>Default off example <filename>/usr/lib/systemd/system-preset/99-default.preset</filename>:</title>
|
|
|
|
<programlisting>disable *</programlisting>
|
|
</example>
|
|
|
|
<para>This disables all units. Due to the filename prefix
|
|
<literal>99-</literal>, it will be read last and hence can easily
|
|
be overridden by spin or administrator preset policy or
|
|
suchlike.</para>
|
|
|
|
<example>
|
|
<title>A GNOME spin example <filename>/usr/lib/systemd/system-preset/50-gnome.preset</filename>:</title>
|
|
|
|
<programlisting>enable gdm.service
|
|
enable colord.service
|
|
enable accounts-daemon.service
|
|
enable avahi-daemon.*</programlisting>
|
|
|
|
</example>
|
|
|
|
<para>This enables the three mentioned units, plus all
|
|
<filename>avahi-daemon</filename> regardless of which unit type. A
|
|
file like this could be useful for inclusion in a GNOME spin of a
|
|
distribution. It will ensure that the units necessary for GNOME
|
|
are properly enabled as they are installed. It leaves all other
|
|
units untouched, and subject to other (later) preset files, for
|
|
example like the one from the first example above.</para>
|
|
|
|
<example>
|
|
<title>Administrator policy <filename>/etc/systemd/system-preset/00-lennart.preset</filename>:</title>
|
|
|
|
<programlisting>enable httpd.service
|
|
enable sshd.service
|
|
enable postfix.service
|
|
disable *</programlisting>
|
|
</example>
|
|
|
|
<para>This enables three specific services and disables all
|
|
others. This is useful for administrators to specifically select
|
|
the units to enable, and disable all others. Due to the filename
|
|
prefix <literal>00-</literal> it will be read early and hence
|
|
overrides all other preset policy files.</para>
