<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>A unit configuration file whose name ends in
|
|
<literal>.socket</literal> encodes information about an IPC or
|
|
network socket or a file system FIFO controlled and supervised by
|
|
systemd, for socket-based activation.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>This man page lists the configuration options specific to
|
|
this unit type. See
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.unit</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
for the common options of all unit configuration files. The common
|
|
configuration items are configured in the generic [Unit] and
|
|
[Install] sections. The socket specific configuration options are
|
|
configured in the [Socket] section.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Additional options are listed in
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.exec</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
|
|
which define the execution environment the
|
|
<option>ExecStartPre=</option>, <option>ExecStartPost=</option>,
|
|
<option>ExecStopPre=</option> and <option>ExecStopPost=</option>
|
|
commands are executed in, and in
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.kill</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
|
|
which define the way the processes are terminated, and in
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.resource-control</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
|
|
which configure resource control settings for the processes of the
|
|
socket.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>For each socket file, a matching service file must exist,
|
|
describing the service to start on incoming traffic on the socket
|
|
(see
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.service</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
for more information about .service files). The name of the
|
|
.service unit is by default the same as the name of the .socket
|
|
unit, but can be altered with the <option>Service=</option> option
|
|
described below. Depending on the setting of the
|
|
<option>Accept=</option> option described below, this .service
|
|
unit must either be named like the .socket unit, but with the
|
|
suffix replaced, unless overridden with <option>Service=</option>;
|
|
or it must be a template unit named the same way. Example: a
|
|
socket file <filename>foo.socket</filename> needs a matching
|
|
service <filename>foo.service</filename> if
|
|
<option>Accept=false</option> is set. If
|
|
<option>Accept=true</option> is set, a service template file
|
|
<filename>foo@.service</filename> must exist from which services
|
|
are instantiated for each incoming connection.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Unless <varname>DefaultDependencies=</varname> in the <literal>[Unit]</literal> section is set to
|
|
<option>false</option>, socket units will implicitly have dependencies of type <varname>Requires=</varname> and
|
|
<varname>After=</varname> on <filename>sysinit.target</filename> as well as dependencies of type
|
|
<varname>Conflicts=</varname> and <varname>Before=</varname> on <filename>shutdown.target</filename>. These ensure
|
|
that socket units pull in basic system initialization, and are terminated cleanly prior to system shutdown. Only
|
|
sockets involved with early boot or late system shutdown should disable this option.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Socket units will have a <varname>Before=</varname>
|
|
dependency on the service which they trigger added implicitly. No
|
|
implicit <varname>WantedBy=</varname> or
|
|
<varname>RequiredBy=</varname> dependency from the socket to the
|
|
service is added. This means that the service may be started
|
|
without the socket, in which case it must be able to open sockets
|
|
by itself. To prevent this, an explicit
|
|
<varname>Requires=</varname> dependency may be added.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Socket units may be used to implement on-demand starting of
|
|
services, as well as parallelized starting of services. See the
|
|
blog stories linked at the end for an introduction.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Note that the daemon software configured for socket
|
|
activation with socket units needs to be able to accept sockets
|
|
from systemd, either via systemd's native socket passing interface
|
|
(see
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_listen_fds</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
for details) or via the traditional
|
|
<citerefentry project='freebsd'><refentrytitle>inetd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>-style
|
|
socket passing (i.e. sockets passed in via standard input and
|
|
output, using <varname>StandardInput=socket</varname> in the
|
|
service file).</para>

<title>Automatic Dependencies</title>
|

<para>Socket units automatically gain a <varname>Before=</varname>
|
|
dependency on the service units they activate.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Socket units referring to file system paths (such as AF_UNIX
|
|
sockets or FIFOs) implicitly gain <varname>Requires=</varname> and
|
|
<varname>After=</varname> dependencies on all mount units
|
|
necessary to access those paths.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Socket units using the <varname>BindToDevice=</varname>
|
|
setting automatically gain a <varname>BindsTo=</varname> and
|
|
<varname>After=</varname> dependency on the device unit
|
|
encapsulating the specified network interface.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If <varname>DefaultDependencies=yes</varname> is set (the
|
|
default), socket units automatically gain a
|
|
<varname>Before=</varname> dependency on
|
|
<filename>sockets.target</filename>. They also gain a pair of
|
|
<varname>After=</varname> and <varname>Requires=</varname>
|
|
dependency on <filename>sysinit.target</filename>, and a pair of
|
|
<varname>Before=</varname> and <varname>Conflicts=</varname>
|
|
dependencies on <filename>shutdown.target</filename>. These
|
|
dependencies ensure that the socket unit is started before normal
|
|
services at boot, and is stopped on shutdown.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Additional implicit dependencies may be added as result of
|
|
execution and resource control parameters as documented in
|

<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.exec</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>

<title>Options</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>Socket files must include a [Socket] section, which carries
|
|
information about the socket or FIFO it supervises. A number of
|
|
options that may be used in this section are shared with other
|
|
unit types. These options are documented in
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.exec</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
and
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.kill</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
|
|
The options specific to the [Socket] section of socket units are
|
|
the following:</para>
|
|
|
|
<variablelist class='unit-directives'>
|
|
<varlistentry>
|
|
<term><varname>ListenStream=</varname></term>
|
|
<term><varname>ListenDatagram=</varname></term>
|
|
<term><varname>ListenSequentialPacket=</varname></term>
|
|
<listitem><para>Specifies an address to listen on for a stream
|
|
(<constant>SOCK_STREAM</constant>), datagram
|
|
(<constant>SOCK_DGRAM</constant>), or sequential packet
|
|
(<constant>SOCK_SEQPACKET</constant>) socket, respectively.
|
|
The address can be written in various formats:</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If the address starts with a slash
|
|
(<literal>/</literal>), it is read as file system socket in
|
|
the <constant>AF_UNIX</constant> socket family.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If the address starts with an at symbol
|
|
(<literal>@</literal>), it is read as abstract namespace
|
|
socket in the <constant>AF_UNIX</constant> family. The
|
|
<literal>@</literal> is replaced with a
|
|
<constant>NUL</constant> character before binding. For
|
|
details, see
|
|
<citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>unix</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If the address string is a single number, it is read as
|
|
port number to listen on via IPv6. Depending on the value of
|
|
<varname>BindIPv6Only=</varname> (see below) this might result
|
|
in the service being available via both IPv6 and IPv4
|
|
(default) or just via IPv6.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If the address string is a string in the format
|
|
v.w.x.y:z, it is read as IPv4 specifier for listening on an
|
|
address v.w.x.y on a port z.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If the address string is a string in the format [x]:y,
|
|
it is read as IPv6 address x on a port y. Note that this might
|
|
make the service available via IPv4, too, depending on the
|
|
<varname>BindIPv6Only=</varname> setting (see below).
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Note that <constant>SOCK_SEQPACKET</constant> (i.e.
|
|
<varname>ListenSequentialPacket=</varname>) is only available
|
|
for <constant>AF_UNIX</constant> sockets.
|
|
<constant>SOCK_STREAM</constant> (i.e.
|
|
<varname>ListenStream=</varname>) when used for IP sockets
|
|
refers to TCP sockets, <constant>SOCK_DGRAM</constant> (i.e.
|
|
<varname>ListenDatagram=</varname>) to UDP.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>These options may be specified more than once, in which
|
|
case incoming traffic on any of the sockets will trigger
|
|
service activation, and all listed sockets will be passed to
|
|
the service, regardless of whether there is incoming traffic
|
|
on them or not. If the empty string is assigned to any of
|
|
these options, the list of addresses to listen on is reset,
|
|
all prior uses of any of these options will have no
|
|
effect.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>It is also possible to have more than one socket unit
|
|
for the same service when using <varname>Service=</varname>,
|
|
and the service will receive all the sockets configured in all
|
|
the socket units. Sockets configured in one unit are passed in
|
|
the order of configuration, but no ordering between socket
|
|
units is specified.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If an IP address is used here, it is often desirable to
|
|
listen on it before the interface it is configured on is up
|
|
and running, and even regardless of whether it will be up and
|
|
running at any point. To deal with this, it is recommended to
|
|
set the <varname>FreeBind=</varname> option described
|
|
below.</para></listitem>
