We currently do not send out an easy-to-user notification for this, but we probably should. You can write a client that subscribes to all unit changes, and then verifies the "Progress" or "FinishTimestampMonotonic" properties of the manager bus object after each of these messages to see whether to bootup is complete now. However, this is not very efficient. I'd be happy to merge a patch that sends out a "Finished" signal or so when systemd is finished booting. This would be really easy to do actually, just a small addition to manager_check_finished(). (I have now added this to the todo list to implement when I find the time to). Note however that when systemd is finished doing its work this doesn't necessarily mean that we are really fully booted up. Other services might still be busy. > For a specific implementation I am planning, I wanted to be able to have a > higher level application that monitors the system startup and analyses the > state of the target.

If all you need is a-posteriori performance data you could just query FinishTimestampMonotonic, StartupTimestampMonotonic, InitRDTimestampMonotonic which systemd always records on boot.
