Details

login's pam stack should try to call pam_systemd. This drops all processes created under the login session into a separate cgroup and allows better process control. It's recommended by upstream, and something we also advertise in the wiki.

Based on the current /etc/pam.d/login, we only need to add an additional line at the end:

-session optional pam_systemd.so

For those unfamiliar with the syntax, the leading '-' will cause pam to ignore errors in loading the module, making this a NOOP when systemd isn't installed.
