Description

       systemd-ask-password-console.service is a system service that queries the user for system passwords (such
       as hard disk encryption keys and SSL certificate passphrases) on the console. It is intended to be used
       during boot to ensure proper handling of passwords necessary for boot.  systemd-ask-password-wall.service
       is a system service that informs all logged in users for system passwords via wall(1). It is intended to
       be used after boot to ensure that users are properly notified.

       See the developerdocumentation[1] for more information about the system password logic.

       Note that these services invoke systemd-tty-ask-password-agent(1) with either the --watch--console or
       --watch--wall command line parameters.
