What process actually displays 'login as:'?
What process actually displays 'login as:'? Is it getty.service or login (binary)? I looked at the sources (at least what I think are the sources) for login and getty.service and I don't see the prompt string? Am I looking in the wrong source files?

Invoke the specified login_program instead of /bin/login. This allows the use of a
non-standard login program. Such a program could, for example, ask for a dial-up password or
use a different password file. See --login-options.
