systemd soft-reboot and surviving it as application

Thorsten Kukuk

Since systemd v254 there is the nice feature of "soft-reboot" and since systemd v255 systemd services can survive a soft-reboot.

In this talk I will speak about what soft-reboot exactly is, what are the benefits and what are the problems and the status of integration in openSUSE Tumbleweed and MicroOS.

Based on this I will also explain how a systemd service can survive a soft-reboot and which requirements the application needs to fulfill for this.
