            Bug ID: 90015
           Summary: Implement "needrestart" equivalent functionality
           Product: systemd
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: Other
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: general
          Assignee: systemd-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: gdamjan at gmail.com
        QA Contact: systemd-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

One common operation after every update of system packages is checking which of
the running services are still using old libraries. In the case of security
updates (openssl comes in mind) it's of essential importance to restart these
services.

I do this by using:

    sudo lsof | grep -e '(deleted|DEL)' | grep -v /tmp | grep -v /dev/zero

although I guess better ways are possible. It will be great if
systemd/systemctl could do this, and smarter.
