3 * swap units that are activated by one name but shown in the kernel under another are semi-broken
5 * NM should pull in network.target (PENDING)
6 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=692008
8 * make anaconda write timeout=0 for encrypted devices
10 * service: pid file reading after reload doesn't work, since we don't reset the pid variable
12 * make sure timeouts are applied to Type=oneshot services.
14 * Dangling symlinks of .automount unit files in .wants/ directories, set up
15 automount points even when the original .automount file did not exist
16 anymore. Only the .mount unit was still around.
18 * make polkit checks async
20 * properly handle .mount unit state tracking when two mount points are stacked one on top of another on the exact same mount point.
24 * logind: selinux is borked...
26 * logind: allow showing logout dialog from system
28 * document that %% can be used to write % in a string that is specifier extended
30 * check utf8 everywhere
32 * when an instanced service exits, remove its parent cgroup too if possible.
34 * Make libselinux, libattr, libcap, libdl dependencies only of the tools which actually need them.
36 * as Tom Gundersen pointed out there's a always a dep loop if people use crypto file systems with random keys
38 * unset container= in PID1?
40 * automatically escape unit names passed on the service (i.e. think "systemctl start serial-getty.service@serial/by-path/jshdfjsdfhkjh" being automatically escaped as necessary.
42 * if we can not get user quota for tmpfs, mount a separate tmpfs instance
43 for every user in /run/user/$USER with a configured maximum size
45 * default to actual 32bit PIDs, via /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max
47 * add an option to make mounts private/shareable and so on, enable this for root by default
49 * internal restart counter for units (focus on auto-respawn)
51 * finer-grained auto-respawn settings (rate-limit)
53 * be able to specify a forced restart of service A where service B depends on, in case B
54 needs to be auto-respawned?
56 * Something is wrong with symlink handling of "autovt@.service" in "systemctl list-unit-files"
58 * when a bus name of a service disappears from the bus make sure to queue further activation requests
60 * something like ConditionExec= or ExecStartPre= without failure state
62 * service restart retry configuration
64 * tmpfiles: apply "x" on "D" too (see patch from William Douglas)
65 * tmpfiles: support generation of char/block devices, symlinks and one-line files (think sysfs)
67 * Introduce ControlGroupPersistant=yes to set +t on the tasks file when creating the cgroup
69 * don't set $HOME in services unless requested
71 * hide PAM/TCPWrap options in fragment parser when compile time disabled
73 * when we automatically restart a service, ensure we retsart its rdeps, too.
75 * allow Type=simple with PIDFile=
76 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=723942
78 * move PAM code into its own binary
80 * warn if the user stops a service but not its associated socket
82 * logind: spawn user@..service on login
84 * logind: non-local X11 server handling
86 * implement Register= switch in .socket units to enable registration
87 in Avahi, RPC and other socket registration services.
89 * make sure people don't leave processes around after ExecStartPre=
91 * make sure systemd-ask-password-wall does not shutdown systemd-ask-password-console too early
93 * readahead: use BTRFS_IOC_DEFRAG_RANGE instead of BTRFS_IOC_DEFRAG ioctl, with START_IO
95 * readahead: check whether a btrfs volume includes ssd by checking mount flag "ssd"
97 * support sd_notify() style notification when reload begins (RELOADING=1), reload is finished (READY=1)
99 * support sd_notify() style notification when shutting down, to make auto-exit bus services work (STOPPING=1)
101 * verify that the AF_UNIX sockets of a service in the fs still exist
102 when we start a service in order to avoid confusion when a user
103 assumes starting a service is enough to make it accessible
105 * Make it possible to set the keymap independently from the font on
106 the kernel cmdline. Right now setting one resets also the other.
108 * move nss-myhostname into systemd
110 * and a dbus call to generate target from current state
112 * drop /.readahead on bigger upgrades with yum
114 * add inode nr check to readahead to suppress preloading changed files
116 * add support for /bin/mount -s
118 * GC unreferenced jobs (such as .device jobs)
120 * cgroup_notify_empty(): recursively check groups up the tree, too
122 * when failing to start a service due to ratelimiting, try again later, if restart=always is set
124 * write blog stories about:
125 - enabling dbus services
127 - how to make changes to sysctl and sysfs attributes
129 - cgroup best pratices to avoid stepping on each others toes
130 - how to pass throw-away units to systemd, or dynamically change properties of existing units
131 - how to integrate cgconfig and suchlike with systemd
132 - security properties
134 - details of instantiated @.service setups
136 * allow port=0 in .socket units
138 * move readahead files into /var, look for them with .path units
140 * teach dbus to activate all services it finds in /etc/systemd/services/org-*.service
142 * support systemd.mask= on the kernel command line.
144 * when key file cannot be found, read it from kbd in cryptsetup
146 * reuse mkdtemp namespace dirs in /tmp?
148 * recreate systemd's D-Bus private socket file on SIGUSR2
150 * Support --test based on current system state
152 * investigate whether the gnome pty helper should be moved into systemd, to provide cgroup support.
154 * maybe introduce ExecRestartPre=
156 * configurable jitter for timer events
158 * timer events with system resume
160 * timer events on calendar time
162 * Support ProcessNeededForShutdown=true to allow stuff like mdmon to
163 be killed very late after the rootfs is read only? If implement pass
164 this to shutdown binary via command line argument.
166 * dot output for --test showing the 'initial transaction'
168 * calendar time support in timer, iCalendar semantics for the timer stuff (RFC2445)

171 * implicitly import "defaults" settings file into all types
172 * exec settings override
173 * writable cgroups dbus properties for live changes
175 * read config fragments for all units from /lib/systemd/system/foobar.service.d/ to override/extend specific settings
177 * port over to LISTEN_FDS/LISTEN_PID:
178 - rpcbind (/var/run/rpcbind.sock!) HAVEPATCH
182 - libvirtd (/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock-ro)
183 - bluetoothd (/var/run/sdp! @/org/bluez/audio!)
186 * auditd service files
188 * fingerprint.target, wireless.target, gps.target, netdevice.target
190 * io priority during initialization
192 * if a service fails too often, make the service enter failed mode, and the socket, too.
194 * new deps "Triggers" and "TriggeredBy"
196 * systemctl list-jobs - show dependencies
198 * add systemctl switch to dump transaction without executing it
200 * suspend, resume support?
202 * drop cap bounding set in readahead and other services
207 - get process transport into dbus for systemctl -P/-H (PENDING)
209 - natively watch for dbus-*.service symlinks (PENDING)
210 - allow specification of socket mode/umask when allocating DBusServer
211 - allow disabling of fd passing when connecting a AF_UNIX connection
212 - allow disabling of UID passing for AUTH EXTERNAL
215 PR_SET_CHILD_REAPER patch: https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/7/28/426
217 * fix alsa mixer restore to not print error when no config is stored
219 * udisks should not use udisks-part-id, instead use blkid. also not probe /dev/loopxxx
221 * snd-seq should go, https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=676095
223 * gnome-shell python script/glxinfo/is-accelerated must die
225 * make cryptsetup lower --iter-time
227 * patch kernel for xattr support in /dev, /proc/, /sys and /sys/fs/cgroup?
229 * NTP: the kernel's 11-minutes-mode syncs the system time to the RTC, but only
230 in an ~30 minutes window. It does not adjust larger differences. Find a way
231 to tell the kernel, to always do a full time sync when the RTC is in UTC and
232 we are in 11-minutes-mode. When we trust the system time to NTP we also want
235 * patch kernel for cpu feature modalias for autoloading aes/kvm/...
236 (patches in linux-next, on the way to the next kernel)
238 * kernel: add /proc/sys file exposing CAP_LAST_CAP? sysconf?
239 merged: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git;a=commit;h=73efc0394e148d0e15583e13712637831f926720
241 * kernel: add device_type = "fb", "fbcon" to class "graphics"
245 * look for close() vs. close_nointr() vs. close_nointr_nofail()
247 * check for strerror(r) instead of strerror(-r)
249 * Use PR_SET_PROCTITLE_AREA if it becomes available in the kernel
251 * %m in printf() instead of strerror();
255 * set_put(), hashmap_put() return values check. i.e. == 0 doesn't free()!
