<title>Description</title>
<para>When run as a system instance, systemd interprets the
configuration file <filename>system.conf</filename> and the files
in <filename>system.conf.d</filename> directories; when run as a
user instance, systemd interprets the configuration file
<filename>user.conf</filename> and the files in
<filename>user.conf.d</filename> directories. These configuration
files contain a few settings controlling basic manager
operations.</para>

<varlistentry>
<term><varname>CPUAffinity=</varname></term>
<listitem><para>Configures the initial CPU affinity for the
init process. Takes a list of CPU indices or ranges separated
by either whitespace or commas. CPU ranges are specified by
the lower and upper CPU indices separated by a
dash.</para></listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><varname>JoinControllers=cpu,cpuacct net_cls,netprio</varname></term>
<listitem><para>Configures controllers that shall be mounted
in a single hierarchy. By default, systemd will mount all
controllers which are enabled in the kernel in individual
hierarchies, with the exception of those listed in this
setting. Takes a space-separated list of comma-separated
controller names, in order to allow multiple joined
hierarchies. Defaults to 'cpu,cpuacct'. Pass an empty string
to ensure that systemd mounts all controllers in separate
hierarchies.</para>
<para>Note that this option is only applied once, at very
early boot. If you use an initial RAM disk (initrd) that uses
systemd, it might hence be necessary to rebuild the initrd if
this option is changed, and make sure the new configuration
file is included in it. Otherwise, the initrd might mount the
controller hierarchies in a different configuration than
intended, and the main system cannot remount them
anymore.</para></listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><varname>RuntimeWatchdogSec=</varname></term>
<term><varname>ShutdownWatchdogSec=</varname></term>
<listitem><para>Configure the hardware watchdog at runtime and
at reboot. Takes a timeout value in seconds (or in other time
units if suffixed with <literal>ms</literal>,
<literal>min</literal>, <literal>h</literal>,
<literal>d</literal>, <literal>w</literal>). If
<varname>RuntimeWatchdogSec=</varname> is set to a non-zero
value, the watchdog hardware
(<filename>/dev/watchdog</filename>) will be programmed to
automatically reboot the system if it is not contacted within
the specified timeout interval. The system manager will ensure
to contact it at least once in half the specified timeout
interval. This feature requires a hardware watchdog device to
be present, as it is commonly the case in embedded and server
systems. Not all hardware watchdogs allow configuration of the
reboot timeout, in which case the closest available timeout is
picked. <varname>ShutdownWatchdogSec=</varname> may be used to
configure the hardware watchdog when the system is asked to
reboot. It works as a safety net to ensure that the reboot
takes place even if a clean reboot attempt times out. By
default <varname>RuntimeWatchdogSec=</varname> defaults to 0
(off), and <varname>ShutdownWatchdogSec=</varname> to 10min.
These settings have no effect if a hardware watchdog is not
available.</para></listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><varname>CapabilityBoundingSet=</varname></term>
<listitem><para>Controls which capabilities to include in the
capability bounding set for PID 1 and its children. See
<citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>capabilities</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>
for details. Takes a whitespace-separated list of capability
names as read by
<citerefentry project='mankier'><refentrytitle>cap_from_name</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
Capabilities listed will be included in the bounding set, all
others are removed. If the list of capabilities is prefixed
with ~, all but the listed capabilities will be included, the
effect of the assignment inverted. Note that this option also
affects the respective capabilities in the effective,
permitted and inheritable capability sets. The capability
bounding set may also be individually configured for units
using the <varname>CapabilityBoundingSet=</varname> directive
for units, but note that capabilities dropped for PID 1 cannot
be regained in individual units, they are lost for
good.</para></listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><varname>SystemCallArchitectures=</varname></term>
<listitem><para>Takes a space-separated list of architecture
identifiers. Selects from which architectures system calls may
be invoked on this system. This may be used as an effective
way to disable invocation of non-native binaries system-wide,
for example to prohibit execution of 32-bit x86 binaries on
64-bit x86-64 systems. This option operates system-wide, and
acts similar to the
<varname>SystemCallArchitectures=</varname> setting of unit
files, see
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.exec</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
for details. This setting defaults to the empty list, in which
case no filtering of system calls based on architecture is
applied. Known architecture identifiers are
<literal>x86</literal>, <literal>x86-64</literal>,
<literal>x32</literal>, <literal>arm</literal> and the special
identifier <literal>native</literal>. The latter implicitly
maps to the native architecture of the system (or more
specifically, the architecture the system manager was compiled
for). Set this setting to <literal>native</literal> to
prohibit execution of any non-native binaries. When a binary
executes a system call of an architecture that is not listed
in this setting, it will be immediately terminated with the
SIGSYS signal.</para></listitem>

<varlistentry>
<term><varname>TimerSlackNSec=</varname></term>
<listitem><para>Sets the timer slack in nanoseconds for PID 1,
which is inherited by all executed processes, unless
overridden individually, for example with the
<varname>TimerSlackNSec=</varname> setting in service units
(for details see
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.exec</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>).
The timer slack controls the accuracy of wake-ups triggered by
system timers. See
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>prctl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>2</manvolnum></citerefentry>
for more information. Note that in contrast to most other time
span definitions this parameter takes an integer value in
nano-seconds if no unit is specified. The usual time units are
understood too.</para></listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><varname>DefaultTimerAccuracySec=</varname></term>
<listitem><para>Sets the default accuracy of timer units. This
controls the global default for the
<varname>AccuracySec=</varname> setting of timer units, see
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.timer</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
for details. <varname>AccuracySec=</varname> set in individual
units override the global default for the specific unit.
Defaults to 1min. Note that the accuracy of timer units is
also affected by the configured timer slack for PID 1, see
<varname>TimerSlackNSec=</varname> above.</para></listitem>

for details on the per-unit settings). For non-service units,
<varname>DefaultTimeoutStartSec=</varname> sets the default
<varname>TimeoutSec=</varname>

K (=1024), M (=1024*1024) and so on for G, T, P and E may be used for
resource limits measured in bytes (e.g. DefaultLimitAS=16G). These
settings may be overridden in individual units using the corresponding
LimitXXX= directives. Note that these resource limits are only
defaults for units, they are not applied to PID 1
itself.</para></listitem>
