Here's a thread that describes why systemd-tmpfiles doesn't implement
the --fuser option that tmpwatch does:
https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2015-April/031339.html
The authors say the following:
/In almost all cases the atime checks we do should be fully sufficient//
//though. Do you have a case where they aren't?//
//
//(Note that we do compare all unix sockets we find with /proc/net/unix//
//though, which is relatively efficient still. Also, as unix sockets//
//which are actively used do not get their atime bumped this is kinda a//
//necessity to cover them nicely.)/
...meaning that /tmp/.java_pid<pid> which are UNIX sockets shouldn't be
deleted by systemd-tmpfiles while still in use. Users of tmpwatch OTOH
should enable the --fuser option.
Is this enough for you, Nijiaben?
