[PATCH] Fix systemd socket-unit example


From: Ulrich Ölmann
Subject: [PATCH] Fix systemd socket-unit example
Date: Thu, 3 Dec 2020 12:54:20 +0100

* doc/emacs/misc.texi (Emacs Server): The socket containing directory
is per default created with permissions 0755 by the socket-unit.
However this is considered unsafe since commit [1], so enhance unit
example with systemd configuration directive `DirectoryMode=' to
create it with safe permissions, see
https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.socket.html#DirectoryMode=

[1] 2003-04-12 "(server-socket-name): Use new safe location for socket."

It took me some hours to track the problem down as `emacs --daemon'
did not complain about what it misliked and only refused to cooperate
with `emacsclient'. Unfortunately I am only a emacs user and no
developer so I do not know how to enhance that situation.
