rustysd

OpenEmbedded/Yocto, Devuan and Gentoo provide multiple init systems. systemd CVEs: https://ubuntu.com/security/cves?package=systemd&limit=100 Rust PoC: https://github.com/KillingSpark/rustysd > Rustysd is a service manager that tries to replicate systemd behaviour for a subset of the configuration possibilities. It focuses on the core functionality of a service manager, not requiring to be PID1 (aka init process).. core systemd functionality is not very hard to replicate.. the advantages of having a systemd-like service manager can be brought to many other platforms.. (like alpine linux, commonly used in docker containers and small vms) and freebsd.

I'm Just going to plug myself here: https://github.com/KillingSpark/rustysd Rustysd is a reimplantation of the core features of the systemd service manager with a deliberate focus on less features so it can work on more platforms (e.g. BSD) It's been a while since I actively progressed on the project but it works and would probably be a good starting point for anyone wanting to do further work in this direction.
