systemd online with Winfy

We have hosted the application systemd in order to run this application in our online workstations with Wine or directly.

Quick description about systemd:

systemd is a suite of basic building blocks for a Linux system. It provides a system and service manager that runs as PID 1 and starts the rest of the system. systemd provides aggressive parallelization capabilities, uses socket and D-Bus activation for starting services, offers on-demand starting of daemons, keeps track of processes using Linux control groups, maintains mount and automount points, and implements an elaborate transactional dependency-based service control logic. systemd supports SysV and LSB init scripts and works as a replacement for sysvinit. Other parts include a logging daemon, utilities to control basic system configuration like the hostname, date, locale, maintain a list of logged-in users and running containers and virtual machines, system accounts, runtime directories and settings, and daemons to manage simple network configuration, network time synchronization, log forwarding, and name resolution.

Features:

• systemd provides support for automatically reverting back to the previous version of the OS or kernel in case the system consistently fails to boot
• systemd can interface with the boot loader to receive performance data and other information, and pass control information
• systemd only supports running one graphical session per user at a time
• Data is transferred between the boot loader and systemd in EFI variables
• systemd has a number of interfaces for interacting with container managers, when systemd is used inside of an OS container
• It provides a system and service manager that runs as PID 1 and starts the rest of the system

Programming Language: C.
