Description
At boot,
systemd-binfmt.service8
reads configuration files from the above directories to register
in the kernel additional binary formats for executables.
Configuration Format
Each file contains a list of binfmt_misc kernel binary
format rules. Consult binfmt-misc.rst
for more information on registration of additional binary formats
and how to write rules.
Empty lines and lines beginning with ; and # are ignored.
Note that this means you may not use ; and # as delimiter in
binary format rules.
