At the moment the shutdown watchdog is set only when rebooting.
The set of "things that can go wrong" is not too far off when kexec'ing
and in fact we have a use case where it would be useful - moving to a
new kernel image.
(The interesting bits about the what and why are in a comment in the
patch, please have a look there instead of looking here in the commit
msg).
Fixes: #10872
Our IO handler is only installed for one fd, hence there's no reason to
conditionalize on it again.
Also, split out the draining into a helper function of its own.
Some distros install nologin as /usr/sbin/nologin, others as
/sbin/nologin.
Since we can't really on merged-usr everywhere (where the path wouldn't
matter), make the path build time configurable via -Dnologin-path=.
Closes#13028

This now becomes:
/etc/systemd/system/eqeqeqeq.service:3: Missing key name before '=', ignoring line.
We generally don't treat syntax error as fatal, but in this case we would
completely refuse to load the file. I think we should treat the the same
as assignment outside of a section, or an unknown key name.
Jobs are added to the run queue in random order. This happens because most
jobs are added by iterating over the transaction or dependency hash maps.
As a result, jobs that can be executed at the same time are started in a
different order each time.
On small embedded devices this can cause a measurable jitter for the point
in time when a job starts (~100ms jitter for 10 units that are started in
random order).
This results is a similar jitter for the boot time. This is undesirable in
general and make optimizing the boot time a lot harder.
Also, jobs that should have a higher priority because the unit has a higher
CPU weight might get executed later than others.
Fix this by turning the job run_queue into a Prioq and sort by the
following criteria (use the next if the values are equal):
- CPU weight
- nice level
- unit type
- unit name
The last one is just there for deterministic sorting to avoid any jitter.
The enum order will be used to order jobs in the job queue.
Make sure that unit types that fork aditional processes come first to
maximize parallelism.
