+====================

+NAME
+----
+arch-modules-load, arch-modules-load.service - Compatibility layer for rc.conf's MODULES array
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+/usr/lib/systemd/arch-modules-load
+
+arch-modules-load.service
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+Parses the MODULES array from rc.conf at early boot and passes on the list of modules to load to
+systemd-modules-load.
+
+arch-modules-load and systemd-modules-load are used the same by both initscripts and systemd.
+
+Note: this is meant as a compatibility layer only for the purposes of easing users' transition from
+the old rc.conf syntax to the new systemd syntax. You are strongly encouraged to not rely on this,
+but rather use the native modules-load.d configuration format.
+
