[dm-devel] [PATCH 5/6] multipathd: Fix multipathd stopping on shutdown

[Benjamin Marzinski]

According to man "systemd.special"

"shutdown.target: ... Services that shall be terminated on system
shutdown shall add Conflicts= and Before= dependencies to this unit for
their service unit, which is implicitly done when
DefaultDependencies=yes is set (the default)."

multipathd.service sets DefaultDependencies=no and includes the
Conflits= dependency, but not the Before= one. This can cause multipathd
to continue running past when it is supposed to during shutdown.
