Probably a daft question, but can systemd not simply look at all the processes running when it is first exec'ed by initrd and then add these processes to a whitelist of sorts? Not sure how practical that would be or how much nannying you'd need to do (i.e. if the process dies and something else takes over it's now vacant pid), but it seems like a simpler approach (at least for every other app than systemd). Obviously I'm sure I've missed something here :D Col -- Colin Guthrie gmane(at)colin.guthr.ie http://colin.guthr.ie/ Day Job: Tribalogic Limited http://www.tribalogic.net/ Open Source: Mageia Contributor http://www.mageia.org/ PulseAudio Hacker http://www.pulseaudio.org/ Trac Hacker http://trac.edgewall.org/ _______________________________________________ systemd-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel
