2 * check systemd-tmpfiles for selinux context hookup for mknod(), symlink() and similar
4 * swap units that are activated by one name but shown in the kernel under another are semi-broken
6 * make anaconda write timeout=0 for encrypted devices
8 * Dangling symlinks of .automount unit files in .wants/ directories, set up
9 automount points even when the original .automount file did not exist
10 anymore. Only the .mount unit was still around.
12 * make polkit checks async
14 * properly handle .mount unit state tracking when two mount points are stacked one on top of another on the exact same mount point.
22 * instantiated [Install] for target units
23 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54377
25 * support *static* (/run) hibernate inhibitors. All rpm -i actions should completely prevent any
26 sort of hibernate action until the next reboot. If the kernel or any other base tool is replaced
27 by rpm, the resume path might fail, the for resume needed kernel might even be uninstalled, and
28 the whole situation leads directly to data loss.
30 * move debug shell to tty6 and make sure this doesn't break the gettys on tty6
32 * move cryptsetup key caching into kernel keyctl?
33 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54982
35 * make nspawn work without terminal
37 * hw watchdog: optionally try to use the preset watchdog timeout instead of always overriding it
38 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54712
40 * after deserializing sockets in socket.c we should reapply sockopts and things
42 * does vasprintf advance the struct vaargs? http://pastie.org/pastes/4712773/text
44 * do shutdown audit/utmp msgs inside of PID 1, get rid of systemd-update-utmp-runlevel
46 * make timer units go away after they elapsed
48 * http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2012-September/006502.html
50 * come up with a nice way to write queue/read_ahead_kb for a block device without interfering with readahead
52 * journald: add kernel cmdline option to disable ratelimiting for debug purposes
54 * move PID 1 segfaults to /var/lib/systemd/coredump?
56 * Document word splitting syntax for ExecStart= and friends
58 * when writing journal entries order field items by their address to improve speed on rotating media
60 * create /sbin/init symlinks from the build system
62 * Query Paul Moore about relabelling socket fds while they are open
64 * move keymaps to /usr/lib/... rather than /usr/lib/udev/...
66 * journald: check whether it is OK if the client can still modify delivered journal entries
70 * json: properly serialize multiple fields with the same name per entry
72 * journal live copy, based on libneon (client) and libmicrohttpd
74 * document in wiki json serialization
76 * system-wide seccomp filter
78 * ability to pass fds into systemd
80 * system.conf should have controls for cgroups
82 * bind mount read-only the cgroup tree higher than than nspawn
84 * currently system services appear not to generate core dumps...
86 * wall messages for shutdown should move to logind
88 * allow writing multiple conditions in unit files on one line
90 * cleanup ellipsation for log output in journalctl and systemctl status: have a sane way to disable ellipsation, and disable it by default when invoked in less/more
92 * explore multiple service instances per listening socket idea
94 * testing tool for socket activation: some binary that listens on a socket and passes it on using the usual socket activation protocol to some server.
96 * maybe make systemd-detect-virt suid? or use fscaps?
98 * shutdown: don't read-only mount anything when running in container
100 * nspawn: --read-only is not applied recursively to submounts
102 * MountFlags=shared acts as MountFlags=slave right now.
104 * ReadOnlyDirectories= is not applied recursively to submounts
106 * drop PID 1 reloading, only do reexecing (difficult: Reload()
107 currently is properly synchronous, Reexec() is weird, because we
108 can't delay the response properly until we are back, so instead of
109 being properly synchronous we just keep open the fd and close it
110 when done. That means clients don't get a succesful method reply,
111 but much rather a disconnect on success.
113 * document that service reload may be implemented as service reexec
115 * remember which condition failed for services, not just the fact that something failed
117 * use opterr = 0 for all getopt tools
119 * properly handle loop back mounts via fstab, especially regards to fsck/passno
121 * allow services with no ExecStart= but with an ExecStop=
123 * add proper journal support to "systemctl --user status ..."
125 * add _SYSTEMD_USER_UNIT= field to journal entries
127 * dracut-shutdown needs to be ordered before unmounting /boot
129 * initialize the hostname from the fs label of /, if /etc/hostname does not exist?
131 * install README to /etc/rc.d/init.d (if support for that is enabled) helping people who use "ls" there to figure out which services exist.
133 * rename "userspace" to "core-os"
135 * systemctl: "Journal has been rotated since unit was started." message is misleading
137 * syscall filter: add knowledge about compat syscalls
139 * syscall filter: don't enforce no new privs?
141 * syscall filter: option to return EPERM rather than SIGSYS?
143 * syscall filter: port to libseccomp
145 * logind: wakelock/opportunistic suspend support
147 * systemd-analyze post-boot is broken for initrd
149 * man: clarify that time-sync.target is not only sysv compat but also useful otherwise. Same for similar targets
151 * .device aliases need to be implemented with the "following" logic, probably.
153 * refuse taking lower-case variable names in sd_journal_send() and friends.
155 * load-fragment: when loading a unit file via a chain of symlinks
156 verify that it isn't masked via any of the names traversed.
158 * journald: we currently rotate only after MaxUse+MaxFilesize has been reached.
163 * introduce Type=pid-file
165 * systemctl list-unit-files appears to be broken for symlinked units in /usr/lib
167 * maybe allow services with ExecStop= set, but no ExecStart=?
169 * efi: implement /forcefsck as uefi variables thus not requiring file system altering to trigger a file system check
171 * efi: honour language efi variables for default language selection
173 * efi: honour timezone efi variables for default timezone selection
175 * efi: automatically mount EFI partition to /boot if no such entry exists in /etc/fstab and /boot is empty
176 gummiboot exports the EFI system partion (ESP) device:
177 /sys/firmware/efi/vars/LoaderDeviceIdentifier-4a67b082-0a4c-41cf-b6c7-440b29bb8c4f/data
178 Acpi(PNP0A03,0)/Pci(1F|2)/?/HD(Part1,Sig1FCBC57F-4BFC-4C2B-91A3-9C84FBCD9AF1)
179 '/' is the separator for the device path list
180 HD(Part1,Sig1FCBC57F-4BFC-4C2B-91A3-9C84FBCD9AF1) contains the GPT UUID of the ESP
182 * read the bootloader performance data (raw TSC) in systemd-analyze
183 /sys/firmware/efi/vars/LoaderTicksExec-4a67b082-0a4c-41cf-b6c7-440b29bb8c4f/data
185 /sys/firmware/efi/vars/LoaderTicksInit-4a67b082-0a4c-41cf-b6c7-440b29bb8c4f/data
187 /sys/firmware/efi/vars/LoaderTicksStartMenu-4a67b082-0a4c-41cf-b6c7-440b29bb8c4f/data

198 * drop accountsservice's StandardOutput=syslog and Type=dbus fields
200 * when breaking cycles drop sysv services first, then services from /run, then from /etc, then from /usr
202 * readahead: when bumping /sys readahead variable save mtime and compare later to detect changes
204 * (attempt to) make Debianites happy:
205 - implement .d/ auto includes for unit files
206 - add syntax to reset ExecStart= lists (and similar)
208 * move passno parsing to fstab generator
210 * improve !/proc/*/loginuid situation: make /proc/*/loginuid less dependent on CONFIG_AUDIT,
211 or use the users cgroup information when /proc/*/loginuid is not available.
213 * pam_systemd: try to get old session id from cgroup, if audit sessionid cannot be determined
215 * pam: when leaving a session explicitly exclude the ReleaseSession() caller process from the killing spree
217 * maybe introduce ~/.config/locale.conf and apply it within PAM
219 * readahead: make use of EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT, as used by http://e4rat.sourceforge.net/
221 * automount: implement expire
223 * logind: auto-suspend, auto-shutdown:
224 IdleAction=(none|suspend|opportunistic|hibernate|poweroff)
226 SessionIdleMode=(explicit|ignore|login)
227 ForceShutdown=(yes|no)
229 * services which create their own subcgroups break cgroup-empty notification (needs to be fixed in the kernel)
231 * don't delete /tmp/systemd-namespace-* before a process is gone down
233 * vconsole: implement setterm -store -foreground xxx --background zzz

237 * fedora: make sshd and pam_loginuid work in nspawn containers
239 * fix utmp for console logins in containers
241 * Add pretty name for seats in logind
243 * ConditionSecurity= should learn about IMA
245 * Auke: merge Auke's bootchart
249 * udev systemd unify:
250 - strpcpy(), strpcpyl(), strscpy(), strscpyl()
251 - utf8 validator code
252 - now() vs. now_usec()
254 * udev: remove network interface renaming, sleep and retry logic, we do
255 no support renaming of interfaces in the conflicting kernel
258 * udev: find a way to tell udev to not cancel firmware requests when running in initramfs
260 * udev: scsi_id -> sg3_utils -> kill scsi_id
262 * udev: add trigger --subsystem-match=usb/usb_device device
264 * allow configuration of console width/height in vconsole.conf
266 * cleanup syslog 'priority' vs. 'level' wording
268 * dbus upstream still refers to dbus.target and shouldn't
270 * when a service has the same env var set twice we actually store it twice and return that in systemctl show -p... We should only show the last setting
272 * support container_ttys=
274 * introduce mix of BindTo and Requisite
276 * journalctl: show multiline log messages sanely, expand tabs, and show all valid utf8 messages
278 * add DeleteSocketsOnStop=yes|no option to socket units
280 * journal: store euid in journal if it differs from uid
282 * There's currently no way to cancel fsck (used to be possible via C-c or c on the console)

286 * add command to systemctl to plot dependency graph as tree (see rhbz 795365)
288 * add option to sockets to avoid activation. Instead just drop packets/connections, see http://cyberelk.net/tim/2012/02/15/portreserve-systemd-solution/
290 * default unix qlen is too small (10). bump sysctl? add sockopt?
292 * Possibly, detect whether SysV init scripts can do reloading by looking for "echo Usage:" lines
294 * figure out whether we should leave dbus around during shutdown
296 * dbus: in fedora, make the machine a symlink to /etc/machine-id
298 * dbus: move dbus to early boot
300 * journald: reuse XZ context
302 * logind: add equivalent to sd_pid_get_owner_uid() to the D-Bus API
304 * journal: API for looking for retrieving "all values of this field"
306 * journal: deal nicely with byte-by-byte copied files, especially regards header

324 * support "systemctl stop foobar@.service" to stop all units matching a certain template
326 * logind: allow showing logout dialog from system
328 * document that %% can be used to write % in a string that is specifier extended
330 * when an instanced service exits, remove its parent cgroup too if possible.
332 * default to actual 32bit PIDs, via /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max
334 * be able to specify a forced restart of service A where service B depends on, in case B
335 needs to be auto-respawned?
337 * Something is wrong with symlink handling of "autovt@.service" in "systemctl list-unit-files"
339 * when a bus name of a service disappears from the bus make sure to queue further activation requests
341 * something like ConditionExec= or ExecStartPre= without failure state
343 * tmpfiles: apply "x" on "D" too (see patch from William Douglas)
345 * don't set $HOME in services unless requested
347 * hide PAM/TCPWrap options in fragment parser when compile time disabled
349 * when we automatically restart a service, ensure we restart its rdeps, too.
351 * allow Type=simple with PIDFile=
352 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=723942
354 * move PAM code into its own binary

363 in Avahi, RPC and other socket registration services.
365 * make sure systemd-ask-password-wall does not shutdown systemd-ask-password-console too early
367 * readahead: use BTRFS_IOC_DEFRAG_RANGE instead of BTRFS_IOC_DEFRAG ioctl, with START_IO
369 * readahead: check whether a btrfs volume includes ssd by checking mount flag "ssd"
371 * support sd_notify() style notification when reload begins (RELOADING=1), reload is finished (READY=1), and add ReloadSignal= then to use in combination
373 * support sd_notify() style notification when shutting down, to make auto-exit bus services work (STOPPING=1)
375 * verify that the AF_UNIX sockets of a service in the fs still exist
376 when we start a service in order to avoid confusion when a user
377 assumes starting a service is enough to make it accessible
379 * Make it possible to set the keymap independently from the font on
380 the kernel cmdline. Right now setting one resets also the other.
382 * move nss-myhostname into systemd
384 * and a dbus call to generate target from current state
386 * drop /.readahead on bigger upgrades with yum
388 * add support for /bin/mount -s
390 * GC unreferenced jobs (such as .device jobs)
392 * write blog stories about:
393 - enabling dbus services
395 - how to make changes to sysctl and sysfs attributes
397 - how to pass throw-away units to systemd, or dynamically change properties of existing units

412 * when key file cannot be found, read it from kbd in cryptsetup
414 * reuse mkdtemp namespace dirs in /tmp?
416 * recreate systemd's D-Bus private socket file on SIGUSR2
418 * Support --test based on current system state
420 * investigate whether the gnome pty helper should be moved into systemd, to provide cgroup support.
422 * maybe introduce ExecRestartPre=
424 * configurable jitter for timer events
426 * timer events with system resume
428 * timer events on calendar time:
429 maybe use this time syntax? http://ohse.de/uwe/uschedule/uschedule.html
431 * dot output for --test showing the 'initial transaction'
433 * calendar time support in timer, iCalendar semantics for the timer stuff (RFC2445)
434 http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=99ee5315dac6211e972fa3f23bcc9a0343ff58c4
436 * implicitly import "defaults" settings file into all types
438 * writable cgroups dbus properties for live changes
440 * read config fragments for all units from /lib/systemd/system/foobar.service.d/ to override/extend specific settings
442 * port over to LISTEN_FDS/LISTEN_PID:
443 - rpcbind (/var/run/rpcbind.sock!) HAVEPATCH
447 - libvirtd (/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock-ro)
448 - bluetoothd (/var/run/sdp! @/org/bluez/audio!)

453 * io priority during initialization
455 * systemctl list-jobs - show dependencies
457 * add systemctl switch to dump transaction without executing it
459 * drop cap bounding set in readahead and other services
465 - natively watch for dbus-*.service symlinks (PENDING)
466 - allow specification of socket mode/umask when allocating DBusServer
467 - allow disabling of fd passing when connecting a AF_UNIX connection
468 - allow disabling of UID passing for AUTH EXTERNAL
469 - always pass cred data along each message
471 * fix alsa mixer restore to not print error when no config is stored
473 * gnome-shell python script/glxinfo/is-accelerated must die
475 * make cryptsetup lower --iter-time
477 * patch kernel for xattr support in /dev, /proc/, /sys and /sys/fs/cgroup?
479 * NTP: the kernel's 11-minutes-mode syncs the system time to the RTC, but only
480 in an ~30 minutes window. It does not adjust larger differences. Find a way
481 to tell the kernel, to always do a full time sync when the RTC is in UTC and
482 we are in 11-minutes-mode. When we trust the system time to NTP we also want
485 * kernel: add device_type = "fb", "fbcon" to class "graphics"
489 * look for close() vs. close_nointr() vs. close_nointr_nofail()
491 * check for strerror(r) instead of strerror(-r)
493 * Use PR_SET_PROCTITLE_AREA if it becomes available in the kernel
495 * %m in printf() instead of strerror(errno);
499 * set_put(), hashmap_put() return values check. i.e. == 0 doesn't free()!
501 * use secure_getenv() instead of getenv() where appropriate
503 Scheduled for removal (or fixing):
505 * xxxOverridable dependencies
