2019-10-08Merge #16569: Increase init file stop timeoutWladimir J. van der Laan
7fb7acfc206b4bf8c296d72b66f3bd4fe342fd87 Set init stop timeout to 10 min (setpill) Pull request description: `bitcoind` can take a long time to flush its db cache to disk upon shutdown. Systemd sends a `SIGKILL` after a timeout, causing unclean shutdowns and triggering a long "Rolling forward" at the next startup. Disabling the timeout should prevent this from happening, and does not break systemd's `restart` logic. Addresses #13736.

`bitcoind` can take a long time to flush its db cache to disk upon shutdown. Most init files send a `SIGKILL` after a timeout of 1 minute, causing unclean shutdowns and triggering a long "Rolling forward" at the next startup. Increasing this timeout to 10 minutes should reduce how often this occurs, especially during IBD. fixup! Set ProtectHome in systemd service file

Further hardening; the service should be run with as many restrictions as possible without breaking it.
2019-08-20Chgrp config dir to bitcoin in systemd servicesetpill
Rather than making the config dir world-readable, which potentially leaks RPC credentials, the group of the directory is changed to the one the service is executed as.

The phrasing seemed to indicate that the options specified in ExecStart= could not be specified in the config file, necessitating their inclusion in the service file. However, the options in the config file simply get overridden by any specified in ExecStart=.
2019-01-05init: Use systemd automatic directory creationCarl Dong
Tell systemd to create, set, and ensure the right mode for the PID, configuration, and data directories. Only the exec bit is set for groups for the aforementioned directories. This is the least privilege perm that allows for the reading/writing/execing of files under the directory _if_ the files themselves give permission to its group to do so (e.g. when -sysperms is specified). Note that this does not allow for the listing of files under the directory.

Adds typical systemd hardening measurements for network services.
2017-06-05Improve bitcoind systemd service fileFlorian Schmaus
Add comment how further options can be added or existing ones modified. Use /run/${RuntimeDirectory} for PID file. Remove TimeoutStopSec, TimeoutStartSec, StartLimitInterval, StartLimitBurst directives as those should be set indivdually. Remove Group to user the bitcoin user's default group. Changed Restart from 'always' to 'on-failure' (can also be overwritten individually).
