systemd-analyze may be used to determine system boot-up
performance statistics and retrieve other state and tracing
information from the system and service manager, and to verify
the correctness of unit files. It is also used to access special
functions useful for advanced system manager debugging.
If no command is passed, systemd-analyze time is implied.
systemd-analyze time
This command prints the time spent in the kernel before userspace
has been reached, the time spent in the initrd before normal
system userspace has been reached, and the time normal system
userspace took to initialize. Note that these measurements simply
measure the time passed up to the point where all system services
have been spawned, but not necessarily until they fully finished
initialization or the disk is idle.
Example 1. Show how long the boot took
# in a container
$ systemd-analyze time
Startup finished in 296ms (userspace)
multi-user.target reached after 275ms in userspace
# on a real machine
$ systemd-analyze time
Startup finished in 2.584s (kernel) + 19.176s (initrd) + 47.847s (userspace) = 1min 9.608s
multi-user.target reached after 47.820s in userspace
systemd-analyze blame
This command prints a list of all running units, ordered by the
time they took to initialize. This information may be used to
optimize boot-up times. Note that the output might be misleading
as the initialization of one service might be slow simply because
it waits for the initialization of another service to complete.
Also note: systemd-analyze blame doesn't display results for
services with Type=simple, because systemd considers such
services to be started immediately, hence no measurement of the
initialization delays can be done. Also note that this command
only shows the time units took for starting up, it does not show
how long unit jobs spent in the execution queue. In particular it
shows the time units spent in "activating" state, which is not
defined for units such as device units that transition directly
from "inactive" to "active". This command hence gives an
impression of the performance of program code, but cannot
accurately reflect latency introduced by waiting for hardware and
similar events.
Example 2. Show which units took the most time during boot
$ systemd-analyze blame
32.875s pmlogger.service
20.905s systemd-networkd-wait-online.service
13.299s dev-vda1.device
...
23ms sysroot.mount
11ms initrd-udevadm-cleanup-db.service
3ms sys-kernel-config.mount
systemd-analyze critical-chain [UNIT...]
This command prints a tree of the time-critical chain of units
(for each of the specified UNITs or for the default target
otherwise). The time after the unit is active or started is
printed after the "@" character. The time the unit takes to start
is printed after the "+" character. Note that the output might be
misleading as the initialization of services might depend on
socket activation and because of the parallel execution of units.
Also, similarly to the blame command, this only takes into
account the time units spent in "activating" state, and hence
does not cover units that never went through an "activating"
state (such as device units that transition directly from
"inactive" to "active"). Moreover it does not show information on
jobs (and in particular not jobs that timed out).
Example 3. systemd-analyze critical-chain
$ systemd-analyze critical-chain
multi-user.target @47.820s
└─pmie.service @35.968s +548ms
└─pmcd.service @33.715s +2.247s

└─kmod-static-nodes.service @6.976s +177ms
└─systemd-journald.socket
└─system.slice
└─-.slice
systemd-analyze dump [pattern...]
Without any parameter, this command outputs a (usually very long)
human-readable serialization of the complete service manager
state. Optional glob pattern may be specified, causing the output
to be limited to units whose names match one of the patterns. The
output format is subject to change without notice and should not
be parsed by applications.
Example 4. Show the internal state of user manager
$ systemd-analyze --user dump
Timestamp userspace: Thu 2019-03-14 23:28:07 CET
Timestamp finish: Thu 2019-03-14 23:28:07 CET

-> Unit proc-timer_list.mount:
Description: /proc/timer_list
...
-> Unit default.target:
Description: Main user target
...
systemd-analyze plot
This command prints an SVG graphic detailing which system
services have been started at what time, highlighting the time
they spent on initialization.
Example 5. Plot a bootchart
$ systemd-analyze plot >bootup.svg
$ eog bootup.svg&
systemd-analyze dot [pattern...]
This command generates textual dependency graph description in
dot format for further processing with the GraphViz dot(1) tool.
Use a command line like systemd-analyze dot | dot -Tsvg
>systemd.svg to generate a graphical dependency tree. Unless
--order or --require is passed, the generated graph will show
both ordering and requirement dependencies. Optional pattern
globbing style specifications (e.g. *.target) may be given at
the end. A unit dependency is included in the graph if any of
these patterns match either the origin or destination node.
Example 6. Plot all dependencies of any unit whose name starts
with "avahi-daemon"
$ systemd-analyze dot 'avahi-daemon.*' | dot -Tsvg >avahi.svg
$ eog avahi.svg
Example 7. Plot the dependencies between all known target units
$ systemd-analyze dot --to-pattern='*.target' --from-pattern='*.target' \
| dot -Tsvg >targets.svg
$ eog targets.svg
systemd-analyze unit-paths
This command outputs a list of all directories from which unit
files, .d overrides, and .wants, .requires symlinks may be
loaded. Combine with --user to retrieve the list for the user
manager instance, and --global for the global configuration of
user manager instances.
Example 8. Show all paths for generated units
$ systemd-analyze unit-paths | grep '^/run'
/run/systemd/system.control
/run/systemd/transient
/run/systemd/generator.early
/run/systemd/system
/run/systemd/system.attached
/run/systemd/generator
/run/systemd/generator.late
Note that this verb prints the list that is compiled into
systemd-analyze itself, and does not communicate with the running
manager. Use
systemctl [--user] [--global] show -p UnitPath --value
to retrieve the actual list that the manager uses, with any empty
directories omitted.
systemd-analyze exit-status [STATUS...]
This command prints a list of exit statuses along with their
"class", i.e. the source of the definition (one of "glibc",
"systemd", "LSB", or "BSD"), see the Process Exit Codes section
in systemd.exec(5). If no additional arguments are specified, all
known statuses are shown. Otherwise, only the definitions for the
specified codes are shown.
Example 9. Show some example exit status names
$ systemd-analyze exit-status 0 1 {63..65}
NAME STATUS CLASS
SUCCESS 0 glibc
FAILURE 1 glibc
- 63 -
USAGE 64 BSD
DATAERR 65 BSD
systemd-analyze capability [CAPABILITY...]
This command prints a list of Linux capabilities along with their
numeric IDs. See capabilities(7) for details. If no argument is
specified the full list of capabilities known to the service
manager and the kernel is shown. Capabilities defined by the
kernel but not known to the service manager are shown as
"cap_???". Optionally, if arguments are specified they may refer
to specific cabilities by name or numeric ID, in which case only
the indicated capabilities are shown in the table.
Example 10. Show some example capability names
$ systemd-analyze capability 0 1 {30..32}
NAME NUMBER
cap_chown 0
cap_dac_override 1
cap_audit_control 30
cap_setfcap 31
cap_mac_override 32
systemd-analyze condition CONDITION...
This command will evaluate Condition*=... and Assert*=...
assignments, and print their values, and the resulting value of
the combined condition set. See systemd.unit(5) for a list of
available conditions and asserts.
Example 11. Evaluate conditions that check kernel versions
$ systemd-analyze condition 'ConditionKernelVersion = ! <4.0' \
'ConditionKernelVersion = >=5.1' \
'ConditionACPower=|false' \
'ConditionArchitecture=|!arm' \
'AssertPathExists=/etc/os-release'
test.service: AssertPathExists=/etc/os-release succeeded.
Asserts succeeded.
test.service: ConditionArchitecture=|!arm succeeded.
test.service: ConditionACPower=|false failed.
test.service: ConditionKernelVersion=>=5.1 succeeded.
test.service: ConditionKernelVersion=!<4.0 succeeded.
Conditions succeeded.
systemd-analyze syscall-filter [SET...]
This command will list system calls contained in the specified
system call set SET, or all known sets if no sets are specified.
Argument SET must include the "@" prefix.
systemd-analyze filesystems [SET...]
This command will list filesystems in the specified filesystem
set SET, or all known sets if no sets are specified. Argument SET
must include the "@" prefix.
systemd-analyze calendar EXPRESSION...
This command will parse and normalize repetitive calendar time
events, and will calculate when they elapse next. This takes the
same input as the OnCalendar= setting in systemd.timer(5),
following the syntax described in systemd.time(7). By default,
only the next time the calendar expression will elapse is shown;
use --iterations= to show the specified number of next times the
expression elapses. Each time the expression elapses forms a
timestamp, see the timestamp verb below.
Example 12. Show leap days in the near future
$ systemd-analyze calendar --iterations=5 '*-2-29 0:0:0'
Original form: *-2-29 0:0:0
Normalized form: *-02-29 00:00:00
Next elapse: Sat 2020-02-29 00:00:00 UTC
From now: 11 months 15 days left
Iter. #2: Thu 2024-02-29 00:00:00 UTC
From now: 4 years 11 months left
Iter. #3: Tue 2028-02-29 00:00:00 UTC
From now: 8 years 11 months left
Iter. #4: Sun 2032-02-29 00:00:00 UTC
From now: 12 years 11 months left
Iter. #5: Fri 2036-02-29 00:00:00 UTC
From now: 16 years 11 months left
systemd-analyze timestamp TIMESTAMP...
This command parses a timestamp (i.e. a single point in time) and
outputs the normalized form and the difference between this
timestamp and now. The timestamp should adhere to the syntax
documented in systemd.time(7), section "PARSING TIMESTAMPS".
Example 13. Show parsing of timestamps
$ systemd-analyze timestamp yesterday now tomorrow
Original form: yesterday
Normalized form: Mon 2019-05-20 00:00:00 CEST
(in UTC): Sun 2019-05-19 22:00:00 UTC
UNIX seconds: @15583032000
From now: 1 day 9h ago
Original form: now
Normalized form: Tue 2019-05-21 09:48:39 CEST
(in UTC): Tue 2019-05-21 07:48:39 UTC
UNIX seconds: @1558424919.659757
From now: 43us ago
Original form: tomorrow
Normalized form: Wed 2019-05-22 00:00:00 CEST
(in UTC): Tue 2019-05-21 22:00:00 UTC
UNIX seconds: @15584760000
From now: 14h left
systemd-analyze timespan EXPRESSION...
This command parses a time span (i.e. a difference between two
timestamps) and outputs the normalized form and the equivalent
value in microseconds. The time span should adhere to the syntax
documented in systemd.time(7), section "PARSING TIME SPANS".
Values without units are parsed as seconds.
Example 14. Show parsing of timespans
$ systemd-analyze timespan 1s 300s '1year 0.000001s'
Original: 1s
μs: 1000000
Human: 1s
Original: 300s
μs: 300000000
Human: 5min
Original: 1year 0.000001s
μs: 31557600000001
Human: 1y 1us
systemd-analyze cat-config NAME|PATH...
This command is similar to systemctl cat, but operates on config
files. It will copy the contents of a config file and any
drop-ins to standard output, using the usual systemd set of
directories and rules for precedence. Each argument must be
either an absolute path including the prefix (such as
/etc/systemd/logind.conf or /usr/lib/systemd/logind.conf), or a
name relative to the prefix (such as systemd/logind.conf).
Example 15. Showing logind configuration
$ systemd-analyze cat-config systemd/logind.conf
# /etc/systemd/logind.conf
...
[Login]
NAutoVTs=8
...
# /usr/lib/systemd/logind.conf.d/20-test.conf
... some override from another package
# /etc/systemd/logind.conf.d/50-override.conf
... some administrator override
systemd-analyze compare-versions VERSION1 [OP] VERSION2
This command has two distinct modes of operation, depending on
whether the operator OP is specified.
In the first mode — when OP is not specified — it will compare
the two version strings and print either "VERSION1 < VERSION2",
or "VERSION1 == VERSION2", or "VERSION1 > VERSION2" as
appropriate.
The exit status is 0 if the versions are equal, 11 if the version
of the right is smaller, and 12 if the version of the left is
smaller. (This matches the convention used by rpmdev-vercmp.)
In the second mode — when OP is specified — it will compare the
two version strings using the operation OP and return 0 (success)
if they condition is satisfied, and 1 (failure) otherwise. OP
may be lt, le, eq, ne, ge, gt. In this mode, no output is
printed. (This matches the convention used by dpkg(1)
--compare-versions.)
Example 16. Compare versions of a package
$ systemd-analyze compare-versions systemd-250~rc1.fc36.aarch64 systemd-251.fc36.aarch64
systemd-250~rc1.fc36.aarch64 < systemd-251.fc36.aarch64
$ echo $?
12
$ systemd-analyze compare-versions 1 lt 2; echo $?
0
$ systemd-analyze compare-versions 1 ge 2; echo $?
1
systemd-analyze verify FILE...
This command will load unit files and print warnings if any
errors are detected. Files specified on the command line will be
loaded, but also any other units referenced by them. A unit's
name on disk can be overridden by specifying an alias after a
colon; see below for an example. The full unit search path is
formed by combining the directories for all command line
arguments, and the usual unit load paths. The variable
$SYSTEMD_UNIT_PATH is supported, and may be used to replace or
augment the compiled in set of unit load paths; see
systemd.unit(5). All units files present in the directories
containing the command line arguments will be used in preference
to the other paths.
The following errors are currently detected:
• unknown sections and directives,
• missing dependencies which are required to start the given
unit,
• man pages listed in Documentation= which are not found in the
system,
• commands listed in ExecStart= and similar which are not found
in the system or not executable.
Example 17. Misspelt directives
$ cat ./user.slice
[Unit]
WhatIsThis=11
Documentation=man:nosuchfile(1)
Requires=different.service
[Service]
Description=x
$ systemd-analyze verify ./user.slice

$ systemd-analyze verify /tmp/source:alias.service
/tmp/systemd-analyze-XXXXXX/alias.service:7: Unknown key name 'MysteryKey' in section 'Service', ignoring.
systemd-analyze security [UNIT...]
This command analyzes the security and sandboxing settings of one
or more specified service units. If at least one unit name is
specified the security settings of the specified service units
are inspected and a detailed analysis is shown. If no unit name
is specified, all currently loaded, long-running service units
are inspected and a terse table with results shown. The command
checks for various security-related service settings, assigning
each a numeric "exposure level" value, depending on how important
a setting is. It then calculates an overall exposure level for
the whole unit, which is an estimation in the range 0.0...10.0
indicating how exposed a service is security-wise. High exposure
levels indicate very little applied sandboxing. Low exposure
levels indicate tight sandboxing and strongest security
restrictions. Note that this only analyzes the per-service
security features systemd itself implements. This means that any
additional security mechanisms applied by the service code itself
are not accounted for. The exposure level determined this way
should not be misunderstood: a high exposure level neither means
that there is no effective sandboxing applied by the service code
itself, nor that the service is actually vulnerable to remote or
local attacks. High exposure levels do indicate however that most
likely the service might benefit from additional settings applied
to them.
Please note that many of the security and sandboxing settings
individually can be circumvented — unless combined with others.
For example, if a service retains the privilege to establish or
undo mount points many of the sandboxing options can be undone by
the service code itself. Due to that is essential that each
service uses the most comprehensive and strict sandboxing and
security settings possible. The tool will take into account some
of these combinations and relationships between the settings, but
not all. Also note that the security and sandboxing settings
analyzed here only apply to the operations executed by the
service code itself. If a service has access to an IPC system
(such as D-Bus) it might request operations from other services
that are not subject to the same restrictions. Any comprehensive
security and sandboxing analysis is hence incomplete if the IPC
access policy is not validated too.
Example 20. Analyze systemd-logind.service
$ systemd-analyze security --no-pager systemd-logind.service
NAME DESCRIPTION EXPOSURE
✗ PrivateNetwork= Service has access to the host's network 0.5
✗ User=/DynamicUser= Service runs as root user 0.4
✗ DeviceAllow= Service has no device ACL 0.2
✓ IPAddressDeny= Service blocks all IP address ranges
...
→ Overall exposure level for systemd-logind.service: 4.1 OK 🙂
systemd-analyze inspect-elf FILE...
This command will load the specified files, and if they are ELF
objects (executables, libraries, core files, etc.) it will parse
the embedded packaging metadata, if any, and print it in a table
or json format. See the Packaging Metadata[1] documentation for
more information.
Example 21. Table output
$ systemd-analyze inspect-elf --json=pretty /tmp/core.fsverity.1000.f77dac5dc161402aa44e15b7dd9dcf97.58561.1637106137000000
{
"elfType" : "coredump",
"elfArchitecture" : "AMD x86-64",
"/home/bluca/git/fsverity-utils/fsverity" : {
"type" : "deb",
"name" : "fsverity-utils",
"version" : "1.3-1",
"buildId" : "7c895ecd2a271f93e96268f479fdc3c64a2ec4ee"
},
"/home/bluca/git/fsverity-utils/libfsverity.so.0" : {
"type" : "deb",
"name" : "fsverity-utils",
"version" : "1.3-1",
"buildId" : "b5e428254abf14237b0ae70ed85fffbb98a78f88"
}
}
The following options are understood:
--system
Operates on the system systemd instance. This is the implied
default.
--user
Operates on the user systemd instance.
--global
Operates on the system-wide configuration for user systemd
instance.
--order, --require
When used in conjunction with the dot command (see above),
selects which dependencies are shown in the dependency graph.
If --order is passed, only dependencies of type After= or
Before= are shown. If --require is passed, only dependencies
of type Requires=, Requisite=, Wants= and Conflicts= are
shown. If neither is passed, this shows dependencies of all
these types.
--from-pattern=, --to-pattern=
When used in conjunction with the dot command (see above),
this selects which relationships are shown in the dependency
graph. Both options require a glob(7) pattern as an argument,
which will be matched against the left-hand and the
right-hand, respectively, nodes of a relationship.
Each of these can be used more than once, in which case the
unit name must match one of the values. When tests for both
sides of the relation are present, a relation must pass both
tests to be shown. When patterns are also specified as
positional arguments, they must match at least one side of
the relation. In other words, patterns specified with those
two options will trim the list of edges matched by the
positional arguments, if any are given, and fully determine
the list of edges shown otherwise.
--fuzz=timespan
When used in conjunction with the critical-chain command (see
above), also show units, which finished timespan earlier,
than the latest unit in the same level. The unit of timespan
is seconds unless specified with a different unit, e.g.
"50ms".
--man=no
Do not invoke man(1) to verify the existence of man pages
listed in Documentation=.
--generators
Invoke unit generators, see systemd.generator(7). Some
generators require root privileges. Under a normal user,
running with generators enabled will generally result in some
warnings.
--recursive-errors=MODE
Control verification of units and their dependencies and
whether systemd-analyze verify exits with a non-zero process
exit status or not. With yes, return a non-zero process exit
status when warnings arise during verification of either the
specified unit or any of its associated dependencies. With
no, return a non-zero process exit status when warnings arise
during verification of only the specified unit. With one,
return a non-zero process exit status when warnings arise
during verification of either the specified unit or its
immediate dependencies. If this option is not specified, zero
is returned as the exit status regardless whether warnings
arise during verification or not.
--root=PATH
With cat-files and verify, operate on files underneath the
specified root path PATH.
--image=PATH
With cat-files and verify, operate on files inside the
specified image path PATH.
--offline=BOOL
With security, perform an offline security review of the
specified unit files, i.e. does not have to rely on PID 1 to
acquire security information for the files like the security
verb when used by itself does. This means that --offline= can
be used with --root= and --image= as well. If a unit's
overall exposure level is above that set by --threshold=
(default value is 100), --offline= will return an error.
--profile=PATH
With security --offline=, takes into consideration the
specified portable profile when assessing unit settings. The
profile can be passed by name, in which case the well-known
system locations will be searched, or it can be the full path
to a specific drop-in file.
--threshold=NUMBER
With security, allow the user to set a custom value to
compare the overall exposure level with, for the specified
unit files. If a unit's overall exposure level, is greater
than that set by the user, security will return an error.
--threshold= can be used with --offline= as well and its
default value is 100.
--security-policy=PATH
With security, allow the user to define a custom set of
requirements formatted as a JSON file against which to
compare the specified unit file(s) and determine their
overall exposure level to security threats.

See example "JSON Policy" below.
--json=MODE
With the security command, generate a JSON formatted output
of the security analysis table. The format is a JSON array
with objects containing the following fields: set which
indicates if the setting has been enabled or not, name which
is what is used to refer to the setting, json_field which is
the JSON compatible identifier of the setting, description
which is an outline of the setting state, and exposure which
is a number in the range 0.0...10.0, where a higher value
corresponds to a higher security threat. The JSON version of
the table is printed to standard output. The MODE passed to
the option can be one of three: off which is the default,
pretty and short which respectively output a prettified or
shorted JSON version of the security table.
--iterations=NUMBER
When used with the calendar command, show the specified
number of iterations the specified calendar expression will
elapse next. Defaults to 1.
--base-time=TIMESTAMP
When used with the calendar command, show next iterations
relative to the specified point in time. If not specified
defaults to the current time.
--unit=UNIT
When used with the condition command, evaluate all the
Condition*=... and Assert*=... assignments in the specified
unit file. The full unit search path is formed by combining
the directories for the specified unit with the usual unit
load paths. The variable $SYSTEMD_UNIT_PATH is supported, and
may be used to replace or augment the compiled in set of unit
load paths; see systemd.unit(5). All units files present in
the directory containing the specified unit will be used in
preference to the other paths.
-H, --host=
Execute the operation remotely. Specify a hostname, or a
username and hostname separated by "@", to connect to. The
hostname may optionally be suffixed by a port ssh is
listening on, separated by ":", and then a container name,
separated by "/", which connects directly to a specific
container on the specified host. This will use SSH to talk to
the remote machine manager instance. Container names may be
enumerated with machinectl -H HOST. Put IPv6 addresses in
brackets.
-M, --machine=
Execute operation on a local container. Specify a container
name to connect to, optionally prefixed by a user name to
connect as and a separating "@" character. If the special
string ".host" is used in place of the container name, a
connection to the local system is made (which is useful to
connect to a specific user's user bus: "--user
--machine=lennart@.host"). If the "@" syntax is not used, the
connection is made as root user. If the "@" syntax is used
either the left hand side or the right hand side may be
omitted (but not both) in which case the local user name and
".host" are implied.
--quiet
Suppress hints and other non-essential output.
-h, --help
Print a short help text and exit.
--version
Print a short version string and exit.
--no-pager
Do not pipe output into a pager.
For most commands, 0 is returned on success, and a non-zero
failure code otherwise.
With the verb compare-versions, in the two-argument form, 12, 0,
11 is returned if the second version string is respectively
larger, equal, or smaller to the first. In the three-argument
form, 0 or 1 if the condition is respectively true or false.
$SYSTEMD_LOG_LEVEL
The maximum log level of emitted messages (messages with a
higher log level, i.e. less important ones, will be
suppressed). Either one of (in order of decreasing
importance) emerg, alert, crit, err, warning, notice, info,
debug, or an integer in the range 0...7. See syslog(3) for
more information.
$SYSTEMD_LOG_COLOR
A boolean. If true, messages written to the tty will be
colored according to priority.
This setting is only useful when messages are written
directly to the terminal, because journalctl(1) and other
tools that display logs will color messages based on the log
level on their own.
$SYSTEMD_LOG_TIME
A boolean. If true, console log messages will be prefixed
with a timestamp.
This setting is only useful when messages are written
directly to the terminal or a file, because journalctl(1) and
other tools that display logs will attach timestamps based on
the entry metadata on their own.
$SYSTEMD_LOG_LOCATION
A boolean. If true, messages will be prefixed with a filename
and line number in the source code where the message
originates.
Note that the log location is often attached as metadata to
journal entries anyway. Including it directly in the message
text can nevertheless be convenient when debugging programs.
$SYSTEMD_LOG_TID
A boolean. If true, messages will be prefixed with the
current numerical thread ID (TID).
Note that the this information is attached as metadata to
journal entries anyway. Including it directly in the message
text can nevertheless be convenient when debugging programs.
$SYSTEMD_LOG_TARGET
The destination for log messages. One of console (log to the
attached tty), console-prefixed (log to the attached tty but
with prefixes encoding the log level and "facility", see
syslog(3), kmsg (log to the kernel circular log buffer),
journal (log to the journal), journal-or-kmsg (log to the
journal if available, and to kmsg otherwise), auto (determine
the appropriate log target automatically, the default), null
(disable log output).
$SYSTEMD_PAGER
Pager to use when --no-pager is not given; overrides $PAGER.
If neither $SYSTEMD_PAGER nor $PAGER are set, a set of
well-known pager implementations are tried in turn, including
less(1) and more(1), until one is found. If no pager
implementation is discovered no pager is invoked. Setting
this environment variable to an empty string or the value
"cat" is equivalent to passing --no-pager.
Note: if $SYSTEMD_PAGERSECURE is not set, $SYSTEMD_PAGER (as
well as $PAGER) will be silently ignored.
$SYSTEMD_LESS
Override the options passed to less (by default "FRSXMK").
Users might want to change two options in particular:
K
This option instructs the pager to exit immediately when
Ctrl+C is pressed. To allow less to handle Ctrl+C itself
to switch back to the pager command prompt, unset this
option.
If the value of $SYSTEMD_LESS does not include "K", and
the pager that is invoked is less, Ctrl+C will be ignored
by the executable, and needs to be handled by the pager.
X
This option instructs the pager to not send termcap
initialization and deinitialization strings to the
terminal. It is set by default to allow command output to
remain visible in the terminal even after the pager
exits. Nevertheless, this prevents some pager
functionality from working, in particular paged output
cannot be scrolled with the mouse.
See less(1) for more discussion.
$SYSTEMD_LESSCHARSET
Override the charset passed to less (by default "utf-8", if
the invoking terminal is determined to be UTF-8 compatible).
$SYSTEMD_PAGERSECURE
Takes a boolean argument. When true, the "secure" mode of the
pager is enabled; if false, disabled. If $SYSTEMD_PAGERSECURE
is not set at all, secure mode is enabled if the effective
UID is not the same as the owner of the login session, see
geteuid(2) and sd_pid_get_owner_uid(3). In secure mode,
LESSSECURE=1 will be set when invoking the pager, and the
pager shall disable commands that open or create new files or
start new subprocesses. When $SYSTEMD_PAGERSECURE is not set
at all, pagers which are not known to implement secure mode
will not be used. (Currently only less(1) implements secure
mode.)
Note: when commands are invoked with elevated privileges, for
example under sudo(8) or pkexec(1), care must be taken to
ensure that unintended interactive features are not enabled.
"Secure" mode for the pager may be enabled automatically as
describe above. Setting SYSTEMD_PAGERSECURE=0 or not removing
it from the inherited environment allows the user to invoke
arbitrary commands. Note that if the $SYSTEMD_PAGER or $PAGER
variables are to be honoured, $SYSTEMD_PAGERSECURE must be
set too. It might be reasonable to completely disable the
pager using --no-pager instead.
$SYSTEMD_COLORS
Takes a boolean argument. When true, systemd and related
utilities will use colors in their output, otherwise the
output will be monochrome. Additionally, the variable can
take one of the following special values: "16", "256" to
restrict the use of colors to the base 16 or 256 ANSI colors,
respectively. This can be specified to override the automatic
decision based on $TERM and what the console is connected to.
$SYSTEMD_URLIFY
The value must be a boolean. Controls whether clickable links
should be generated in the output for terminal emulators
supporting this. This can be specified to override the
decision that systemd makes based on $TERM and other
conditions.
Example 22. JSON Policy
The JSON file passed as a path parameter to --security-policy=
has a top-level JSON object, with keys being the assessment test
identifiers mentioned above. The values in the file should be
JSON objects with one or more of the following fields:
description_na (string), description_good (string),
description_bad (string), weight (unsigned integer), and range
(unsigned integer). If any of these fields corresponding to a
specific id of the unit file is missing from the JSON object, the
default built-in field value corresponding to that same id is
used for security analysis as default. The weight and range
fields are used in determining the overall exposure level of the
unit files: the value of each setting is assigned a badness
score, which is multiplied by the policy weight and divided by
the policy range to determine the overall exposure that the
setting implies. The computed badness is summed across all
settings in the unit file, normalized to the 1...100 range, and
used to determine the overall exposure level of the unit. By
allowing users to manipulate these fields, the 'security' verb
gives them the option to decide for themself which ids are more
important and hence should have a greater effect on the exposure
level. A weight of "0" means the setting will not be checked.
