This adds the boolean RemoveIPC= setting to service, socket, mount and swap units (i.e. all unit types that may invoke processes). if turned on, and the unit's user/group is not root, all IPC objects of the user/group are removed when the service is shut down. The life-cycle of the IPC objects is hence bound to the unit life-cycle. This is particularly relevant for units with dynamic users, as it is essential that no objects owned by the dynamic users survive the service exiting. In fact, this patch adds code to imply RemoveIPC= if DynamicUser= is set. In order to communicate the UID/GID of an executed process back to PID 1 this adds a new "user lookup" socket pair, that is inherited into the forked processes, and closed before the exec(). This is needed since we cannot do NSS from PID 1 due to deadlock risks, However need to know the used UID/GID in order to clean up IPC owned by it if the unit shuts down.

<term><varname>DynamicUser=</varname></term>
|

<listitem><para>Takes a boolean parameter. If set, a UNIX user and group pair is allocated dynamically when the
|
||
unit is started, and released as soon as it is stopped. The user and group will not be added to
|
||
<filename>/etc/passwd</filename> or <filename>/etc/group</filename>, but are managed transiently during
|
||
runtime. The <citerefentry><refentrytitle>nss-systemd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
||
glibc NSS module provides integration of these dynamic users/groups into the system's user and group
|
||
databases. The user and group name to use may be configured via <varname>User=</varname> and
|
||
<varname>Group=</varname> (see above). If these options are not used and dynamic user/group allocation is
|
||
enabled for a unit, the name of the dynamic user/group is implicitly derived from the unit name. If the unit
|
||
name without the type suffix qualifies as valid user name it is used directly, otherwise a name incorporating a
|
||
hash of it is used. If a statically allocated user or group of the configured name already exists, it is used
|
||
and no dynamic user/group is allocated. Dynamic users/groups are allocated from the UID/GID range
|
||
61184…65519. It is recommended to avoid this range for regular system or login users. At any point in time
|
||
each UID/GID from this range is only assigned to zero or one dynamically allocated users/groups in
|
||
use. However, UID/GIDs are recycled after a unit is terminated. Care should be taken that any processes running
|
||
as part of a unit for which dynamic users/groups are enabled do not leave files or directories owned by these
|
||
users/groups around, as a different unit might get the same UID/GID assigned later on, and thus gain access to
|
||
these files or directories. If <varname>DynamicUser=</varname> is enabled, <varname>RemoveIPC=</varname> and
|
||
<varname>PrivateTmp=</varname> are implied. This ensures that the lifetime of IPC objects and temporary files
|
||
created by the executed processes is bound to the runtime of the service, and hence the lifetime of the dynamic
|
||
user/group. Since <filename>/tmp</filename> and <filename>/var/tmp</filename> are usually the only
|
||
world-writable directories on a system this ensures that a unit making use of dynamic user/group allocation
|
||
cannot leave files around after unit termination. Use <varname>RuntimeDirectory=</varname> (see below) in order
|
||
to assign a writable runtime directory to a service, owned by the dynamic user/group and removed automatically
|
||
when the unit is terminated. Defaults to off.</para></listitem>

|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>setrlimit</refentrytitle><manvolnum>2</manvolnum></citerefentry> for details on
|
||
the resource limit concept. Resource limits may be specified in two formats: either as single value to set a
|
||
specific soft and hard limit to the same value, or as colon-separated pair <option>soft:hard</option> to set
|
||
both limits individually (e.g. <literal>LimitAS=4G:16G</literal>). Use the string <varname>infinity</varname>
|
||
to configure no limit on a specific resource. The multiplicative suffixes K, M, G, T, P and E (to the base
|
||
1024) may be used for resource limits measured in bytes (e.g. LimitAS=16G). For the limits referring to time
|
||
values, the usual time units ms, s, min, h and so on may be used (see
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.time</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry> for
|
||
details). Note that if no time unit is specified for <varname>LimitCPU=</varname> the default unit of seconds
|
||
is implied, while for <varname>LimitRTTIME=</varname> the default unit of microseconds is implied. Also, note
|
||
that the effective granularity of the limits might influence their enforcement. For example, time limits
|
||
specified for <varname>LimitCPU=</varname> will be rounded up implicitly to multiples of 1s. For
|
||
<varname>LimitNICE=</varname> the value may be specified in two syntaxes: if prefixed with <literal>+</literal>
|
||
or <literal>-</literal>, the value is understood as regular Linux nice value in the range -20..19. If not
|
||
prefixed like this the value is understood as raw resource limit parameter in the range 0..40 (with 0 being
|
||
equivalent to 1).</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>Note that most process resource limits configured with
|
||
these options are per-process, and processes may fork in order
|
||
to acquire a new set of resources that are accounted
|
||
independently of the original process, and may thus escape
|
||
limits set. Also note that <varname>LimitRSS=</varname> is not
|
||
implemented on Linux, and setting it has no effect. Often it
|
||
is advisable to prefer the resource controls listed in
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.resource-control</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
||
over these per-process limits, as they apply to services as a
|
||
whole, may be altered dynamically at runtime, and are
|
||
generally more expressive. For example,
|
||
<varname>MemoryLimit=</varname> is a more powerful (and
|
||
working) replacement for <varname>LimitRSS=</varname>.</para>

<para>This environment variable is useful to monitor failure or successful termination of a service. Even

though this variable is available in both <varname>ExecStop=</varname> and <varname>ExecStopPost=</varname>, it

is usually a better choice to place monitoring tools in the latter, as the former is only invoked for services

those which failed during their runtime.</para></listitem>
