The main process of the unit is the one that defines - the life-time of it. A control process of a unit is one that - is invoked by the manager to induce state changes of it. For - example, all processes started due to the - <varname>ExecStartPre=</varname>, - <varname>ExecStop=</varname> or - <varname>ExecReload=</varname> settings of service units are - control processes. Note that there is only one control - process per unit at a time, as only one state change is - executed at a time. For services of type - <varname>Type=forking</varname>, the initial process started - by the manager for <varname>ExecStart=</varname> is a - control process, while the process ultimately forked off by - that one is then considered the main process of the unit (if - it can be determined). This is different for service units - of other types, where the process forked off by the manager - for <varname>ExecStart=</varname> is always the main process - itself. A service unit consists of zero or one main process, - zero or one control process plus any number of additional - processes. Not all unit types manage processes of these - types however.
