These were forgotten during the initial conversion, probably because most of them consisted only of a single entry. Fix that.

<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>Service managers for capsules run in
|
|
<filename>capsule@<replaceable>NAME</replaceable>.service</filename> system units, with the capsule name as the
|
|
instance identifier. Capsules are way to run additional instances of the service manager, under dynamic
|
|
user IDs, i.e. UIDs that are allocated when the capsule service manager is started, and released when it
|
|
is stopped.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>In many ways <filename>capsule@.service</filename> is similar to the per-user
|
|
<filename>user@.service</filename> service manager, but there are a few important distinctions:</para>
|
|
|
|
<itemizedlist>
|
|
<listitem><para>The capsule service manager utilizes <varname>DynamicUser=</varname> (see
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.exec</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>) to
|
|
allocate a new UID dynamically on invocation. The user name is automatically generated from the capsule
|
|
name, by prefixing <literal>c-</literal>. The UID is released when the service is terminated. The user
|
|
service manager on the other hand operates under a statically allocated user ID that must be
|
|
pre-existing, before the user service manager is invoked.</para></listitem>
|
|
|
|
<listitem><para>User service managers register themselves with <citerefentry
|
|
project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>pam</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>, capsule
|
|
service managers do not.</para></listitem>
|
|
|
|
<listitem><para>User service managers typically read their configuration from a
|
|
<varname>$HOME</varname> directory below <filename>/home/</filename>, capsule service managers from a
|
|
<varname>$HOME</varname> directory below <filename>/var/lib/capsules/</filename>.</para></listitem>
|
|
|
|
<listitem><para>User service managers are collectively contained in the <filename>user.slice</filename>
|
|
unit, capsule service managers in <filename>capsule.slice</filename>. Also see
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.special</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para></listitem>
|
|
|
|
<listitem><para>User service managers start the user unit <filename>default.target</filename>
|
|
initially. Capsule service managers invoke the user unit <filename>capsule@.target</filename>
|
|
instead.</para></listitem>
|
|
</itemizedlist>
|
|
|
|
<para>The capsule service manager and the capsule's bus broker can be reached via the
|
|
<option>--capsule=</option> switch to
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemctl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-run</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry> and
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>busctl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>New capsules can be started via a simple <command>systemctl start
|
|
capsule@<replaceable>NAME</replaceable>.service</command> command, and stopped via <command>systemctl
|
|
stop capsule@<replaceable>NAME</replaceable>.service</command>. Starting a capsule will implicitly create
|
|
a home directory <filename>/var/lib/capsules/<replaceable>NAME</replaceable>/</filename>, if missing. A
|
|
runtime directory is created as <filename>/run/capsules/<replaceable>NAME</replaceable>/</filename>. To
|
|
remove these resources use <command>systemctl clean capsule@<replaceable>NAME</replaceable>.service</command>,
|
|
for example with the <option>--what=all</option> switch.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The <filename>capsule@.service</filename> unit invokes a <command>systemd --user</command>
|
|
service manager process. This means unit files are looked for according to the sames rules as for regular user
|
|
service managers, for example in
|
|
<filename>/var/lib/capsules/<replaceable>NAME</replaceable>/.config/systemd/user/</filename>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Capsule names may be chosen freely by the user, however, they must be suitable as UNIX filenames
|
|
(i.e. 255 characters max, and contain no <literal>/</literal>), and when prefixed with
|
|
<literal>p-</literal> be suitable as a user name matching strict POSIX rules, see <ulink
|
|
url="https://systemd.io/USER_NAMES">User/Group Name Syntax</ulink> for details.</para>

<title>Examples</title>
|
|
<example>
|
|
<title>Create a new capsule, invoke two programs in it (one interactively), terminate it, and clean everything up</title>
|
|
|
|
<programlisting># systemctl start capsule@tatze.service
|
|
# systemd-run --capsule=tatze --unit=sleeptest.service sleep 999
|
|
# systemctl --capsule=tatze status sleeptest.service
|
|
# systemd-run -t --capsule=tatze bash
|
|
# systemctl --capsule=tatze stop sleeptest.service
|
|
# systemctl stop capsule@tatze.service
|
|
# systemctl clean --all capsule@tatze.service</programlisting>
