<title>Description</title>
<para><command>systemd</command> uses
<filename>/etc/binfmt.d/</filename> to configure
additional binary formats to register during boot in
the kernel. Each configuration file is named in the
style of
<filename>/etc/binfmt.d/&lt;program&gt;.conf</filename>.</para>
</refsect1>
<refsect1>
<title>Configuration Format</title>
<para>Each file contains a list of binfmt_misc kernel
binary format rules. Consult <ulink
url="http://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/binfmt_misc.txt">binfmt_misc.txt</ulink>
for more information on registration of additional
binary formats and how to write rules.</para>
<para>Empty lines and lines beginning with ; and # are
ignored. Note that this means you may not use ; and #
as delimiter in binary format rules.</para>
<para>Configuration files are loaded in alphabetical
order. To ensure that a specific rule takes precedence
over another place it in a file with an alphabetically
later name.</para>
