Fedora 26 Systemd Severe Denial of Service Issue 2017-6f8fcff58c

systemd is a system and service manager that runs as PID 1 and starts

the rest of the system. It provides aggressive parallelization

capabilities, uses socket and D-Bus activation for starting services,

offers on-demand starting of daemons, keeps track of processes using

Linux control groups, maintains mount and automount points, and

implements an elaborate transactional dependency-based service control

logic. systemd supports SysV and LSB init scripts and works as a

replacement for sysvinit. Other parts of this package are a logging daemon,

utilities to control basic system configuration like the hostname,

date, locale, maintain a list of logged-in users and running

containers and virtual machines, system accounts, runtime directories

and settings, and daemons to manage simple network configuration,

network time synchronization, log forwarding, and name resolution.
