It is responsible for: o Keeping track of users and sessions, their processes and their idle state o Providing PolicyKit-based access for users to operations such as system shutdown or sleep o Implementing a shutdown/sleep inhibition logic for applications o Handling of power/sleep hardware keys o Multi-seat management o Session switch management o Device access management for users o Automatic spawning of text logins (gettys) on virtual console activation and user runtime directory management User sessions are registered in logind via the pam_systemd(8) PAM module. See logind.conf(5) for information about the configuration of this service. See Multi-Seat on Linux[1] for an introduction into basic concepts of logind such as users, sessions and seats. See the logind D-Bus API Documentation[2] for information about the APIs systemd-logind provides. For more information on the inhibition logic see the Inhibitor Lock Developer Documentation[3].
