KERNEL-COMMAND-LINE(7)        kernel-command-line       KERNEL-COMMAND-LINE(7)
NAME
       kernel-command-line - Kernel command line parameters
SYNOPSIS
       /proc/cmdline
DESCRIPTION
       The kernel, the initial RAM disk (initrd) and basic userspace
       functionality may be configured at boot via kernel command line
       arguments.
       For command line parameters understood by the kernel, please see
       kernel-parameters.html[1] and bootparam(7).
       For command line parameters understood by the initial RAM disk, please
       see dracut.cmdline(7), or the documentation of the specific initrd
       implementation of your installation.
CORE OS COMMAND LINE ARGUMENTS
       systemd.unit=, rd.systemd.unit=, systemd.dump_core, systemd.crash_chvt,
       systemd.crash_shell, systemd.crash_reboot, systemd.confirm_spawn,
       systemd.service_watchdogs, systemd.show_status, systemd.log_target=,
       systemd.log_level=, systemd.log_location=, systemd.log_color,
       systemd.default_standard_output=, systemd.default_standard_error=,
       systemd.setenv=, systemd.machine_id=, systemd.unified_cgroup_hierarchy,
       systemd.legacy_systemd_cgroup_controller
           Parameters understood by the system and service manager to control
           system behavior. For details, see systemd(1).
       systemd.mask=, systemd.wants=, systemd.debug_shell
           Additional parameters understood by systemd-debug-generator(8), to
           mask or start specific units at boot, or invoke a debug shell on
           tty9.
       systemd.restore_state=
           This parameter is understood by several system tools to control
           whether or not they should restore system state from the previous
           boot. For details, see systemd-backlight@.service(8) and systemd-
           rfkill.service(8).
       systemd.volatile=
           This parameter controls whether the system shall boot up in
           volatile mode. Takes a boolean argument, or the special value
           "state". If false (the default), normal boot mode is selected, the
           root directory and /var are mounted as specified on the kernel
           command line or /etc/fstab, or otherwise configured. If true, full
           state-less boot mode is selected. In this case the root directory
           is mounted as volatile memory file system ("tmpfs"), and only /usr
           is mounted from the file system configured as root device, in
           read-only mode. This enables fully state-less boots were the
           vendor-supplied OS is used as shipped, with only default
           configuration and no stored state in effect, as /etc and /var (as
           well as all other resources shipped in the root file system) are
           reset at boot and lost on shutdown. If this setting is set to
           "state" the root file system is mounted as usual, however /var is
           mounted as a volatile memory file system ("tmpfs"), so that the
           system boots up with the normal configuration applied, but all
           state reset at boot and lost at shutdown. For details, see systemd-
           volatile-root.service(8) and systemd-fstab-generator(8).
       quiet
           Parameter understood by both the kernel and the system and service
           manager to control console log verbosity. For details, see
           systemd(1).
       debug
           Parameter understood by both the kernel and the system and service
