docs/manual: add integration section for systemd with dbus
Add a section to the "Integration topics" chapter about how we integrate systemd. Add a first subsection about how dbus and dbus-broker work with systemd. This is just the start of the integration information about systemd. Signed-off-by: Arnout Vandecappelle (Essensium/Mind) <arnout@mind.be> Signed-off-by: Yann E. MORIN <yann.morin.1998@free.fr>

=== Systemd
|
||||
|
||||
This chapter describes the decisions taken in Buildroot's integration of
|
||||
systemd, and how various use cases can be implemented.
|
||||
|
||||
==== DBus daemon
|
||||
|
||||
Systemd requires a DBus daemon. There are two options for it: traditional dbus
|
||||
(+BR2_PACKAGE_DBUS+) and bus1 dbus-broker (+BR2_PACKAGE_DBUS_BROKER+). At
|
||||
least one of them must be chosen. If both are included in the configuration,
|
||||
dbus-broker will be used as system bus, but the traditional dbus-daemon is
|
||||
still installed as well and can be used as session bus. Also its tools (e.g.
|
||||
+dbus-send+) can be used (systemd itself has +busctl+ as an alternative). In
|
||||
addition, the traditional dbus package is the only one that provides +libdbus+,
|
||||
which is used by many packages as dbus integration library.
|
||||
|
||||
Both in the dbus and in the dbus-broker case, the daemon runs as user +dbus+.
|
||||
The DBus configuration files are also identical for both.
|
||||
|
||||
To make sure that only one of the two daemons is started as system bus, the
|
||||
systemd activation files of the dbus package (+dbus.socket+ and the
|
||||
+dbus.service+ symlink in +multi-user.target.wants+) are removed when
|
||||
dbus-broker is selected.
