Docbook styles required those to be present, even though the templates that we use did not show those names anywhere. But something changed semi-recently (I would suspect docbook templates, but there was only a minor version bump in recent years, and the changelog does not suggest anything related), and builds now work without those entries. Let's drop this dead weight. Tested with F26-F29, debian unstable. $ perl -i -0pe 's/\s*<authorgroup>.*<.authorgroup>//gms' man/*xml

<title>Description</title>

|
|
|
<para>A number of different components are involved in the system
|
|
boot. Immediately after power-up, the system BIOS will do minimal
|
|
hardware initialization, and hand control over to a boot loader
|
|
stored on a persistent storage device. This boot loader will then
|
|
invoke an OS kernel from disk (or the network). In the Linux case,
|
|
this kernel (optionally) extracts and executes an initial RAM disk
|
|
image (initrd), such as generated by
|
|
<citerefentry project='die-net'><refentrytitle>dracut</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
|
|
which looks for the root file system (possibly using
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
for this). After the root file system is found and mounted, the
|
|
initrd hands over control to the host's system manager (such as
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>)
|
|
stored on the OS image, which is then responsible for probing all
|
|
remaining hardware, mounting all necessary file systems and
|
|
spawning all configured services.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>On shutdown, the system manager stops all services, unmounts
|
|
all file systems (detaching the storage technologies backing
|
|
them), and then (optionally) jumps back into the initrd code which
|
|
unmounts/detaches the root file system and the storage it resides
|
|
on. As a last step, the system is powered down.</para>
|
|

<title>System Manager Bootup</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>At boot, the system manager on the OS image is responsible
|
|
for initializing the required file systems, services and drivers
|
|
that are necessary for operation of the system. On
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
systems, this process is split up in various discrete steps which
|
|
are exposed as target units. (See
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.target</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
for detailed information about target units.) The boot-up process
|
|
is highly parallelized so that the order in which specific target
|
|
units are reached is not deterministic, but still adheres to a
|
|
limited amount of ordering structure.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>When systemd starts up the system, it will activate all
|
|
units that are dependencies of <filename>default.target</filename>
|
|
(as well as recursively all dependencies of these dependencies).
|
|
Usually, <filename>default.target</filename> is simply an alias of
|
|
<filename>graphical.target</filename> or
|
|
<filename>multi-user.target</filename>, depending on whether the
|
|
system is configured for a graphical UI or only for a text
|
|
console. To enforce minimal ordering between the units pulled in,
|
|
a number of well-known target units are available, as listed on
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.special</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The following chart is a structural overview of these
|
|
well-known units and their position in the boot-up logic. The
|
|
arrows describe which units are pulled in and ordered before which
|
|
other units. Units near the top are started before units nearer to
|
|
the bottom of the chart.</para>

<title>Bootup in the Initial RAM Disk (initrd)</title>
|
|
<para>The initial RAM disk implementation (initrd) can be set up
|
|
using systemd as well. In this case, boot up inside the initrd
|
|
follows the following structure.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The default target in the initrd is
|
|
<filename>initrd.target</filename>. The bootup process begins
|
|
identical to the system manager bootup (see above) until it
|
|
reaches <filename>basic.target</filename>. From there, systemd
|
|
approaches the special target <filename>initrd.target</filename>.
|
|
|
|
Before any file systems are mounted, it must be determined whether
|
|
the system will resume from hibernation or proceed with normal boot.
|
|
This is accomplished by <filename>systemd-hibernate-resume@.service</filename>
|
|
which must be finished before <filename>local-fs-pre.target</filename>,
|
|
so no filesystems can be mounted before the check is complete.
|
|
|
|
When the root device becomes available,
|
|
<filename>initd-root-device.target</filename> is reached.
|
|
If the root device can be mounted at
|
|
<filename>/sysroot</filename>, the
|
|
<filename>sysroot.mount</filename> unit becomes active and
|
|
<filename>initrd-root-fs.target</filename> is reached. The service
|
|
<filename>initrd-parse-etc.service</filename> scans
|
|
<filename>/sysroot/etc/fstab</filename> for a possible
|
|
<filename>/usr</filename> mount point and additional entries
|
|
marked with the <emphasis>x-initrd.mount</emphasis> option. All
|
|
entries found are mounted below <filename>/sysroot</filename>, and
|
|
<filename>initrd-fs.target</filename> is reached. The service
|
|
<filename>initrd-cleanup.service</filename> isolates to the
|
|
<filename>initrd-switch-root.target</filename>, where cleanup
|
|
services can run. As the very last step, the
|
|
<filename>initrd-switch-root.service</filename> is activated,
|
|
which will cause the system to switch its root to
|
|
<filename>/sysroot</filename>.

|
phase of system shutdown (implemented in the <filename>systemd-shutdown</filename> binary), which will unmount any
|
|
remaining file systems, kill any remaining processes and release any other remaining resources, in a simple and
|
|
robust fashion, without taking any service or unit concept into account anymore. At that point, regular
|
|
applications and resources are generally terminated and released already, the second phase hence operates only as
|
|
safety net for everything that couldn't be stopped or released for some reason during the primary, unit-based
|
|
shutdown phase described above.</para>
