[systemd-devel] sub-processes handling question

Hi,

I'm wondering how good systemd is in killing all sub-processes when a 
service fails/ends (un)expectedly. Let's say a service forks several 
times during its execution and the forked processes do some nasty work 
to detach from parent process. Can we be sure that all processes will be 
interrupted/killed after main service process ends/fails?

Thanks for any reply

Cheers,

Honza
