大多数Linux系统中,如果不做特殊修改,系统中运行的进程的总数十分庞大。想知道哪个进程在干什么以及它属于哪里正变得越来越困难。 有些服务,他们的几个主要工作进程与其他附加进程堆砌在一起,使得"ps"输出结果非常不容易辨认。 更复杂的情况是:像Apache 生成的那些CGI进程,或cron生成的那些用户作业那样,由守护进程产生任意的第三方进程。
应对这种情况的一个小方法是进程继承树, 就如"ps xaf"命令显示的那样。但是这种方法通常是靠不住的,因为父进程死亡的进程将重新获得父进程ID,即PID为1,因而这些进程的所有继承关系信息也就丢失了。如果一个进程进行了两次fork(译者即unix magic 2 forks),他就会因此与fork它的进程失去了联系。(这其实是传统Unix中使进程变成守护进程所依赖的特性)(译者:unix magic 2 forks,简单的说第一次fork改变PID,第二次fork保证不是sessionleader,详细解读可参考深入理解daemon), 更有甚者,进程可以通过PR_SETNAME 或者修改argv[0]来改变他们的名字,这使得要认出他们变得更加困难。事实上进程可以通过这种方法与系统管理员玩捉迷藏游戏。
在systemd中,控制组(control group)通过service来命名,我们摆放好每个由控制组产生的进程的位置。控制组(或叫cgroups)从最本质上来说就是一些简单的进程组,同组进程能分出层次并各自打上标签。当某些进程产生了子进程,这些子进程就自动成为他们父进程的cgroup的成员。这样,cgroups能用来当做标识那些进程属于哪个服务的有效方法,并能保证被标识的服务不会改变它的标签,不论它怎样fork或改名。更进一步,它可以用来安全杀死一个服务和它创建的所有进程,并保证没有遗漏。
今天这一讲我要向你们介绍两个命令,这两个命令与systemd的服务和进程相关。第一个,就是众所周知的ps命令,这个命令已经被修改成能显示cgroup信息以及与之相关的其他进程的信息, 它看起来像这样:

(缩短了输出,移除大多数内核线程,因为它们与此博客内容无关)
第三列就是systemd赋值给每个进程的cgroup, 你将发现udev进程在name=systemd:/systemd-1/sysinit.service的cgroup,启动早期,所有进程都由sysinit.service启动
我个人建议设置psc为ps的shell别名:
alias psc='ps xawf -eo pid,user,cgroup,args'
这样显示进程信息就是敲4个键的事儿!
另一种提供相同信息的方法是systemd-cgls工具,用来树形显示cgroup的层次结果.输出看起来是这个样子:

(同样是有删截的内容)
如你所见,这一命令以进程的cgroup以及service属性的方式显示他们,因为systemd标识服务的属性.比如,你很容易看到auditing服务auditd.service衍生三个单独进程:auditd,audisp,sedispatch.
仔细看的话你就会注意到几个进程被赋予cgroup 的/user/1. 这里我们把它简单的看作systemd以cgroup的方式不止维护着系统服务,而且还有用户session进程.以后的博客中我们会讨论得更具体些.
就这些了,下一讲见.
