would it be possible to ship that for 10.0 as well?

We'd love to. But as it turned out, users don't like when we add new dependencies to our packages in a GA branch (yes, we've tried). And in these patches MariaDB is linked with libsystemd-daemon.so, so we'll have to add it as a dependency. We cannot do that. I see few options for 10.0:

• add the patch nevertheless, but build our packages without systemd. Users would need to compile MariaDB to get systemd support.
• bundle libsystemd-daemon sources with 10.0
• only implement a minimal systemd support in 10.0 that doesn't require changes in the server

What do you think we should do?

Either way, I think we'll add systemd support in 10.1 first and then, possibly, backport parts of it to 10.0

Sergei,

I would suggest the third choice, aka minimal systemd support. This is the less intrusive, and to be honest, most people just need minimal support.
Let's keep the systemd socket activation for 10.1 as it introduces major changes.

Regards,
Guillaume

I agree with serg about being conservative in GA branches. Add well documented systemd scripts to 10.1 and downstream packagers can then choose themselves if they want to take the risk of backporting it somewhere, e.g. to new OS/Linux distro releases.
