| <para>When run as a system instance, systemd interprets the |

| user instance, systemd interprets the configuration file |
| <filename>user.conf</filename> and the files in |
| <filename>user.conf.d</filename> directories. These configuration |
| files contain a few settings controlling basic manager |

| (<filename>/dev/watchdog</filename>) will be programmed to |
| automatically reboot the system if it is not contacted within |
| the specified timeout interval. The system manager will ensure |
| to contact it at least once in half the specified timeout |
| interval. This feature requires a hardware watchdog device to |
| be present, as it is commonly the case in embedded and server |
| systems. Not all hardware watchdogs allow configuration of the |
| reboot timeout, in which case the closest available timeout is |
| picked. <varname>ShutdownWatchdogSec=</varname> may be used to |
| configure the hardware watchdog when the system is asked to |
| reboot. It works as a safety net to ensure that the reboot |
| takes place even if a clean reboot attempt times out. By |
| default <varname>RuntimeWatchdogSec=</varname> defaults to 0 |
| (off), and <varname>ShutdownWatchdogSec=</varname> to 10min. |
| These settings have no effect if a hardware watchdog is not |

| <term><varname>SystemCallArchitectures=</varname></term> |
| |
| <listitem><para>Takes a space-separated list of architecture |
| identifiers. Selects from which architectures system calls may |

| way to disable invocation of non-native binaries system-wide, |
| for example to prohibit execution of 32-bit x86 binaries on |
| 64-bit x86-64 systems. This option operates system-wide, and |
| acts similar to the |
| <varname>SystemCallArchitectures=</varname> setting of unit |
| files, see |
| <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.exec</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry> |
| for details. This setting defaults to the empty list, in which |
| case no filtering of system calls based on architecture is |
| applied. Known architecture identifiers are |
| <literal>x86</literal>, <literal>x86-64</literal>, |
| <literal>x32</literal>, <literal>arm</literal> and the special |
| identifier <literal>native</literal>. The latter implicitly |
| maps to the native architecture of the system (or more |
| specifically, the architecture the system manager was compiled |
| for). Set this setting to <literal>native</literal> to |
| prohibit execution of any non-native binaries. When a binary |
| executes a system call of an architecture that is not listed |
| in this setting, it will be immediately terminated with the |
| SIGSYS signal.</para></listitem> |

| <listitem><para>These settings control various default |
| resource limits for units. See |
| <citerefentry><refentrytitle>setrlimit</refentrytitle><manvolnum>2</manvolnum></citerefentry> |
| for details. The resource limit is possible to specify in two formats, |
| <option>value</option> to set soft and hard limits to the same value, |
| or <option>soft:hard</option> to set both limits individually (e.g. DefaultLimitAS=4G:16G). |
| Use the string <varname>infinity</varname> to |
| configure no limit on a specific resource. The multiplicative |
| suffixes K (=1024), M (=1024*1024) and so on for G, T, P and E |
| may be used for resource limits measured in bytes |
| (e.g. DefaultLimitAS=16G). For the limits referring to time values, |
| the usual time units ms, s, min, h and so on may be used (see |
| <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.time</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry> |
| for details). Note that if no time unit is specified for |
| <varname>DefaultLimitCPU=</varname> the default unit of seconds is |
| implied, while for <varname>DefaultLimitRTTIME=</varname> the default |
| unit of microseconds is implied. Also, note that the effective |
| granularity of the limits might influence their |
| enforcement. For example, time limits specified for |
| <varname>DefaultLimitCPU=</varname> will be rounded up implicitly to |
| multiples of 1s. These settings may be overridden in individual units |
| using the corresponding LimitXXX= directives. Note that these resource |
| limits are only defaults for units, they are not applied to PID 1 |
| itself.</para></listitem> |
