Dear Maintainer(s), systemd v248 will ship with a new dbus/systemctl interface to mark a unit as needing reload/restart, and a new dbus/systemctl to queue all reload/restart jobs in a single command. The RPM packaging/scripts are changing to use this instead of custom batching. I'm opening this ticket to explore whether it would be possible/good/desirable to switch the debhelper tools to use this as well in the future. It looks like this: systemctl set-property foo.service Markers=needs-restart systemctl set-property bar.service Markers=needs-reload ... systemctl reload-or-restart --marked (or equivalent DBUS calls) References: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/commit/ff68472a20c208121b69ea13586f3105a219bc14 https://github.com/systemd/systemd/commit/c9615f73521986b3607b852c139036d58973043c https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/18481/commits The advantage being, you can mark a unit inline, but then batch the actual jobs later/asynchronously. Note that, given the interface has just been merged and is not yet released, there is scope for improvements if there are debhelper- specific concerns to address, given the feature first use is the RPM's side of things. Thoughts? -- Kind regards, Luca Boccassi
