Ok, this means, that for socket-activated daemon, i'm simple run
sd_listen_fds and check ret val...
if i ran in standalone mode, i can do sd_notify for example with MAINPID
and check ret? Doc says:
       On failure, these calls return a negative errno-style error code.
If $NOTIFY_SOCKET was not set and hence no status data could be sent, 0
is returned. If the status was sent these
       functions return with a positive return value. In order to
support both, init systems that implement this scheme and those which
don't, it is generally recommended to ignore the
       return value of this call.


How can i check systemd in case not socket-activated mode ?
