.SH "NAME"
binfmt.d \- Configure additional binary formats for executables at boot
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.PP
/etc/binfmt\&.d/*\&.conf
.PP
/run/binfmt\&.d/*\&.conf
.PP
/usr/lib/binfmt\&.d/*\&.conf
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
At boot,
\fBsystemd-binfmt.service\fR(8)
reads configuration files from the above directories to register in the kernel additional binary formats for executables\&.
.SH "CONFIGURATION FORMAT"
.PP
Each file contains a list of binfmt_misc kernel binary format rules\&. Consult
\m[blue]\fBbinfmt_misc\&.txt\fR\m[]\&\s-2\u[1]\d\s+2
for more information on registration of additional binary formats and how to write rules\&.
.PP
Empty lines and lines beginning with ; and # are ignored\&. Note that this means you may not use ; and # as delimiter in binary format rules\&.
.SH "CONFIGURATION DIRECTORIES AND PRECEDENCE"
.PP
Configuration files are read from directories in
/etc/,
/run/, and
/usr/lib/, in order of precedence\&. Each configuration file in these configuration directories shall be named in the style of
\fIfilename\fR\&.conf\&. Files in
/etc/
override files with the same name in
/run/
and
/usr/lib/\&. Files in
/run/
override files with the same name in
/usr/lib/\&.
.PP
Packages should install their configuration files in
/usr/lib/\&. Files in
/etc/
are reserved for the local administrator, who may use this logic to override the configuration files installed by vendor packages\&. All configuration files are sorted by their filename in lexicographic order, regardless of which of the directories they reside in\&. If multiple files specify the same option, the entry in the file with the lexicographically latest name will take precedence\&. It is recommended to prefix all filenames with a two\-digit number and a dash, to simplify the ordering of the files\&.
.PP
If the administrator wants to disable a configuration file supplied by the vendor, the recommended way is to place a symlink to
/dev/null
in the configuration directory in
/etc/, with the same filename as the vendor configuration file\&.
