# kiosk-session — main process of kiosk.service.
#
# Launches the weston compositor in the FOREGROUND (so it owns the logind seat
# session systemd set up via PAMName=login) and, once weston's Wayland socket is
# up, runs Chromium fullscreen in the BACKGROUND with a crash-restart loop.
#
# Why a wrapper instead of weston.ini [autolaunch]: EPEL 9 ships weston 8.0,
# which has neither kiosk-shell.so nor [autolaunch] (both weston 9.0). So weston
# runs desktop-shell.so (see weston.ini) and we start Chromium here.
#
# Process model: systemd -> this script -> exec weston. The Chromium loop is
# forked before the exec, so it lives in the unit's cgroup; when weston exits the
# service is torn down (KillMode=control-group) and the loop dies with it. If
# Chromium alone crashes, the loop relaunches it without taking weston down.
#
# KIOSK_URL comes from /etc/kiosk/kiosk.env. The Chromium profile/cache live on
# tmpfs (root is read-only erofs + volatile overlay) — writes land in RAM; watch
# RAM if the page is heavy (it can starve the NVMe-oF keep-alive — see TODO).
