- <title>Description</title>
-
- <para><filename>systemd-debug-generator</filename> is a generator
- that reads the kernel command line and understands three
- options:</para>
-
- <para>If the <option>systemd.mask=</option> option is specified
- and followed by a unit name, this unit is masked for the runtime,
- similar to the effect of
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemctl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>'s
- <command>mask</command> command. This is useful to boot with
- certain units removed from the initial boot transaction for
- debugging system startup. May be specified more than once.</para>
-
- <para>If the <option>systemd.wants=</option> option is specified
- and followed by a unit name, a start job for this unit is added to
- the initial transaction. This is useful to start one or more
- additional units at boot. May be specified more than once.</para>
-
- <para>If the <option>systemd.debug-shell</option> option is
- specified, the debug shell service
- <literal>debug-shell.service</literal> is pulled into the boot
- transaction. It will spawn a debug shell on tty9 during early
- system startup. Note that the shell may also be turned on
- persistently by enabling it with
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemctl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>'s
- <command>enable</command> command.</para>
-
- <para><filename>systemd-debug-generator</filename> implements
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.generator</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
