Brent, This systemd patch seems to originate from Red Hat's systemd team, I need to get more information about this before proposing this to systemd community. I tried to search the systemd archives to see if Red Hat had attempted to upstream this patch and did not find anything. Does anyone have any contacts at Red Hat that might be able to help so that we can move forward with upstreaming this. As systemd is a pretty core tool, I would rather use an upstream than building our own. Thanks Sau!
