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><command>systemd-run</command> may be used to create and
|
|
start a transient <filename>.service</filename> or a transient
|
|
<filename>.timer</filename> or a <filename>.scope</filename> unit
|
|
and run the specified <replaceable>COMMAND</replaceable> in
|
|
it.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If a command is run as transient service unit, it will be
|
|
started and managed by the service manager like any other service,
|
|
and thus show up in the output of <command>systemctl
|
|
list-units</command> like any other unit. It will run in a clean
|
|
and detached execution environment. <command>systemd-run</command>
|
|
will start the service asynchronously in the background and
|
|
immediately return.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If a command is run with timer options, transient timer unit
|
|
also be created with transient service unit. But the transient
|
|
timer unit is only started immediately. The transient service unit
|
|
will be started when the transient timer is elapsed. If
|
|
<option>--unit=</option> is specified with timer options, the
|
|
<replaceable>COMMAND</replaceable> can be omitted. In this case,
|
|
<command>systemd-run</command> assumes service unit is already
|
|
loaded and creates transient timer unit only. To successfully
|
|
create timer unit, already loaded service unit should be specified
|
|
with <option>--unit=</option>. This transient timer unit can
|
|
activate the existing service unit like any other timer.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If a command is run as transient scope unit, it will be
|
|
started directly by <command>systemd-run</command> and thus
|
|
inherit the execution environment of the caller. It is however
|
|
managed by the service manager similar to normal services, and
|
|
will also show up in the output of <command>systemctl
|
|
list-units</command>. Execution in this case is synchronous, and
|
|
execution will return only when the command finishes.</para>
