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
22 * when an instanced service exits, remove its parent cgroup too if possible.
24 * as Tom Gundersen pointed out there's a always a dep loop if people use crypto file systems with random keys
26 * unset container= in PID1?
28 * 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.
30 * if we can not get user quota for tmpfs, mount a separate tmpfs instance
31 for every user in /run/user/$USER with a configured maximum size
33 * default to actual 32bit PIDs, via /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max
35 * add an option to make mounts private/shareable and so on, enable this for root by default
37 * internal restart counter for units (focus on auto-respawn)
39 * finer-grained auto-respawn settings (rate-limit)
41 * be able to specify a forced restart of service A where service B depends on, in case B
42 needs to be auto-respawned?
44 * Something is wrong with symlink handling of "autovt@.service" in "systemctl list-unit-files"
46 * introduce sd_log_open() to create a connection to the syslog bridge via sd-daemon.h
48 * when a bus name of a service disappears from the bus make sure to queue further activation requests
50 * something like ConditionExec= or ExecStartPre= without failure state
52 * service restart retry configuration
54 * tmpfiles: apply "x" on "D" too (see patch from William Douglas)
55 * tmpfiles: support generation of char/block devices, symlinks and one-line files (think sysfs)
57 * Introduce ControlGroupPersistant=yes to set +t on the tasks file when creating the cgroup
59 * don't set $HOME in services unless requested
61 * remove hacks in vala code and require libnotify 0.7
63 * hide PAM/TCPWrap options in fragment parser when compile time disabled
65 * when we automatically restart a service, ensure we retsart its rdeps, too.
67 * allow Type=simple with PIDFile=
68 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=723942
70 * move PAM code into its own binary
72 * warn if the user stops a service but not its associated socket
74 * logind: spawn user@..service on login
76 * logind: non-local X11 server handling
78 * implement Register= switch in .socket units to enable registration
79 in Avahi, RPC and other socket registration services.
81 * make sure people don't leave processes around after ExecStartPre=
83 * make sure systemd-ask-password-wall does not shutdown systemd-ask-password-console too early
85 * readahead: use BTRFS_IOC_DEFRAG_RANGE instead of BTRFS_IOC_DEFRAG ioctl, with START_IO
87 * readahead: check whether a btrfs volume includes ssd by checking mount flag "ssd"
89 * support sd_notify() style notification when reload begins (RELOADING=1), reload is finished (READY=1)
91 * support sd_notify() style notification when shutting down, to make auto-exit bus services work (STOPPING=1)
93 * verify that the AF_UNIX sockets of a service in the fs still exist
94 when we start a service in order to avoid confusion when a user
95 assumes starting a service is enough to make it accessible
97 * Make it possible to set the keymap independently from the font on
98 the kernel cmdline. Right now setting one resets also the other.
100 * move nss-myhostname into systemd
102 * and a dbus call to generate target from current state
104 * detect LXC with $container=lxc
106 * drop /.readahead on bigger upgrades with yum
108 * add inode nr check to readahead to suppress preloading changed files
110 * add support for /bin/mount -s
112 * GC unreferenced jobs (such as .device jobs)
114 * cgroup_notify_empty(): recursively check groups up the tree, too
116 * when failing to start a service due to ratelimiting, try again later, if restart=always is set
118 * write blog stories about:
119 - enabling dbus services
121 - how to make changes to sysctl and sysfs attributes
123 - cgroup best pratices to avoid stepping on each others toes
124 - how to pass throw-away units to systemd, or dynamically change properties of existing units
125 - how to integrate cgconfig and suchlike with systemd
126 - security properties
128 - details of instantiated @.service setups
130 * allow port=0 in .socket units
132 * move readahead files into /var, look for them with .path units
134 * teach dbus to activate all services it finds in /etc/systemd/services/org-*.service
136 * support systemd.mask= on the kernel command line.
138 * when key file cannot be found, read it from kbd in cryptsetup
140 * reuse mkdtemp namespace dirs in /tmp?
142 * recreate systemd's D-Bus private socket file on SIGUSR2
144 * Support --test based on current system state
146 * investigate whether the gnome pty helper should be moved into systemd, to provide cgroup support.
148 * maybe introduce ExecRestartPre=
150 * configurable jitter for timer events
152 * timer events with system resume
154 * timer events on calendar time
156 * Support ProcessNeededForShutdown=true to allow stuff like mdmon to
157 be killed very late after the rootfs is read only? If implement pass
158 this to shutdown binary via command line argument.
160 * dot output for --test showing the 'initial transaction'
162 * calendar time support in timer, iCalendar semantics for the timer stuff (RFC2445)

165 * implicitly import "defaults" settings file into all types
166 * exec settings override
167 * writable cgroups dbus properties for live changes
169 * read config fragments for all units from /lib/systemd/system/foobar.service.d/ to override/extend specific settings
171 * port over to LISTEN_FDS/LISTEN_PID:
172 - rpcbind (/var/run/rpcbind.sock!) HAVEPATCH
176 - libvirtd (/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock-ro)
177 - bluetoothd (/var/run/sdp! @/org/bluez/audio!)
180 * auditd service files
182 * fingerprint.target, wireless.target, gps.target, netdevice.target
184 * io priority during initialization
186 * if a service fails too often, make the service enter failed mode, and the socket, too.
188 * new deps "Triggers" and "TriggeredBy"
190 * systemctl list-jobs - show dependencies
192 * add systemctl switch to dump transaction without executing it
194 * suspend, resume support?
196 * drop cap bounding set in readahead and other services
201 - get process transport into dbus for systemctl -P/-H (PENDING)
203 - natively watch for dbus-*.service symlinks (PENDING)
204 - allow specification of socket mode/umask when allocating DBusServer
205 - allow disabling of fd passing when connecting a AF_UNIX connection
206 - allow disabling of UID passing for AUTH EXTERNAL
209 PR_SET_CHILD_REAPER patch: https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/7/28/426
211 * fix alsa mixer restore to not print error when no config is stored
213 * udisks should not use udisks-part-id, instead use blkid. also not probe /dev/loopxxx
215 * snd-seq should go, https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=676095
217 * gnome-shell python script/glxinfo/is-accelerated must die
219 * make cryptsetup lower --iter-time
221 * patch kernel for xattr support in /dev, /proc/, /sys and /sys/fs/cgroup?
223 * patch kernel for cpu feature modalias for autoloading aes/kvm/...
224 http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/ak/linux-misc-2.6.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/cpuid-match
225 (Rafael J. Wysocki's sysdev rework is on the way. After that CPUs can be exported a proper bus.)
227 * kernel: add /proc/sys file exposing CAP_LAST_CAP? sysconf?
229 * kernel: add device_type = "fb", "fbcon" to class "graphics"
233 * look for close() vs. close_nointr() vs. close_nointr_nofail()
235 * check for strerror(r) instead of strerror(-r)
237 * Use PR_SET_PROCTITLE_AREA if it becomes available in the kernel
239 * %m in printf() instead of strerror();
243 * set_put(), hashmap_put() return values check. i.e. == 0 doesn't free()!
