+
+                <para>This interface is provided by the reference
+                implementation of APIs for controlling boot-time
+                read-ahead and distributed with the systemd
+                package. The algorithms it implements are simple, and
+                can easily be reimplemented in daemons if it is
+                important to support this interface without using the
+                reference implementation. See the respective function
+                man pages for details.</para>
+
+                <para>In addition, for details about the algorithms,
+                check the liberally licensed reference implementation
+                sources:
+                <ulink url="http://cgit.freedesktop.org/systemd/systemd/plain/src/readahead/sd-readahead.c"/>
+                and <ulink url="http://cgit.freedesktop.org/systemd/systemd/plain/src/systemd/sd-readahead.h"/></para>
+
+                <para>These APIs are implemented in the reference
+                implementation's drop-in
+                <filename>sd-readahead.c</filename> and
+                <filename>sd-readahead.h</filename> files. It is
+                recommended that applications consuming these APIs copy
+                the implementation into their source tree, either
+                verbatim or in excerpts. These interfaces are
+                currently not available in a dynamic library.</para>
+
+                <para>The functions provided by this interface become
+                NOPs when -DDISABLE_SYSTEMD is set during
+                compilation. In addition, if
+                <filename>sd-readhead.c</filename> is compiled on
+                non-Linux systems it becomes NOPs.</para>

+
+                <para><filename>systemd-readahead-collect.service</filename>
+                is a service that collects disk usage patterns at boot
+                time. <filename>systemd-readahead-replay.service</filename>
+                is a service that replays this access data collected
+                at the subsequent boot. Since disks tend to be
+                magnitudes slower than RAM, this is intended to improve
+                boot speeds by pre-loading early at boot all data on
+                disk that is known to be read for the complete boot
+                process.</para>
+
+                <para><filename>systemd-readahead-done.service</filename>
+                is executed a short while after boot completed and signals
+                <filename>systemd-readahead-collect.service</filename>
+                to end data collection. On this signal, this service
+                will then sort the collected disk accesses and store
+                information about them in
+                <filename>/.readahead</filename>.</para>
+
+                <para>Normally, both
+                <filename>systemd-readahead-collect.service</filename>
+                and
+                <filename>systemd-readahead-replay.service</filename>
+                are activated at boot so that access patterns from the
+                preceding boot are replayed and new data collected
+                for the subsequent boot. However, on read-only media
+                where the collected data cannot be stored, it might
+                be a good idea to disable
+                <filename>systemd-readahead-collect.service</filename>.</para>
+
+                <para>On rotating media, when replaying disk accesses
+                at early boot,
+                <filename>systemd-readahead-replay.service</filename>
+                will order read requests by their location on disk. On
+                non-rotating media, they will be ordered by their
+                original access timestamp. If the file system supports
+                it,
+                <filename>systemd-readahead-collect.service</filename>
+                will also defragment and rearrange files on disk to
