1. Overview
The SystemServiceControl.hpp header defines cross-init-system service identification and containment APIs used when a protected service definition is attacked.
The file integrates the following components, APIs, or runtime concepts:
- systemd
- OpenRC
- dinit
- SysV init
2. InitSystem Enumeration
Supported runtime types are None, Systemd, OpenRC, Dinit, and SysVInit.
3. ServiceTarget
ServiceTarget combines detected init system, logical service name, and the affected service-definition path.
4. Action Result
ServiceActionResult returns both success/failure and a diagnostic message suitable for logging or UI feedback.
5. Public Functions
detectInitSystem()toString(InitSystem)identifySystemService(path)blockSystemService(path)unblockSystemService(path)
6. Runtime and Security Considerations
- Path-to-service resolution: containment starts from the attacked definition path rather than trusting arbitrary service names from an event.
- Cross-distribution behavior: one API supports several init ecosystems.
