No, I'm arguing there's a way to force-start even socket-activated services. But this is really a moot point. Systemd's socket activation is really meant for system services which would otherwise be in the critical path of system boot. 'Regular' client-facing services that people normally run–webapps, etc.–are not really the target use case. It's fine to start them up in the normal way, with WantedBy=multi-user.target in the [Install] section. And I have never seen people use socket activation for them anyway. So you are basically arguing a strawman here. |

gpsd is an example that immediately comes to mind that was set to start on-demand. Which is ridiculous.
So it's a straw man that actually exists, making it not a straw man.
