3 * swap units that are activated by one name but shown in the kernel under another are semi-broken
5 * Fix assert http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2011-April/001910.html
7 * 0595f9a1c182a84581749823ef47c5f292e545f9 is borked, freezes shutdown
8 (path: after installing inotify watches, recheck file again to fix race)
12 * NFS, networkmanager ordering issue (PENDING)
14 * NM should pull in network.target (PENDING)
15 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=692008
17 * bluetooth should be possible to disable (PENDING)
19 * get writev() /dev/kmsg support into the F15 kernel
20 https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/4/6/473
21 patched merged into -mm
23 * fix sd_is_socket() invocation in dbus
25 * New CK release, with sysinit.target dropping and TTY loop
27 * New Avahi package, enable it by default
29 * make anaconda write timeout=0 for encrypted devices
33 * Maybe merge nss-myhostname into systemd?
35 * maybe lower default timeout to 2min?
37 * GC unreferenced jobs (such as .device jobs)
39 * support wildcard expansion in ListeStream= and friends
41 * avoid DefaultStandardOutput=syslog to have any effect on StandardInput=socket services
43 * use pivot_root on shutdown so that we can unmount the root directory.
45 * fix alsa mixer restore to not print error when no config is stored
47 * show enablement status in systemctl status
49 * write blog stories about:
50 - enabling dbus services
52 - the new configuration files
53 - you are a distro: why switch?
55 * maybe add tiny dbus services similar to hostnamed for locale and wallclock/timezone?
57 * allow port = 0 in .socket units
59 * rename systemd-logger to systemd-stdio-syslog-bridge
61 * introduce /usr/lib/binfmt.d/, /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/
63 * take BSD file lock on tty devices when using them?
65 * avoid any flag files, or readahead files in /, we need to support r/o /
66 or / on tmpfs like Android setups.
68 * move readahead files into /var, look for them with .path units
70 * teach dbus to activate all services it finds in /etc/systemd/services/org-*.service
72 * get process transport into dbus for systemctl -P/-H
74 * document default dependencies
76 * support systemd.whitelist=/systemd.blacklist= on the kernel command
79 * Find a way to replace /var/run, /var/lock directories with
80 symlinks during an RPM package upgrade (filesystem.rpm or systemd.rpm).
81 (lua code to create symlinks right away for new installations is in filesytem.rpm now)
82 We soon want to get rid of var-run.mount var-lock.mount units:
83 if mountpoint /run ; then
86 mount --move /var/run /run || mount --bind /var/run /run
88 mv /var/run /var/.run.save
90 echo "R /var/.run.save" > /etc/tmpfiles.d/remove-run-save.conf
92 * when key file cannot be found, read it from kbd in cryptsetup
94 * add switch to systemctl to show enabled but not running services. Or
95 another switch that shows service that have been running since
96 booting but aren't running anymore.
98 * reuse mkdtemp namespace dirs in /tmp?
100 * recreate systemd's D-Bus private socket file on SIGUSR2
102 * be more specific what failed:
104 Unmounting file systems.
105 Not all file systems unmounted, 1 left.
107 Detaching loop devices.
108 Detaching DM devices.
109 Cannot finalize remaining file systems and devices, trying to kill remaining processes.
110 Unmounting file systems.
111 Not all file systems unmounted, 1 left.
112 Cannot finalize remaining file systems and devices, giving up.
115 * check for compiled-in, but not active selinux, and don't print any warnings
116 about policy loading. Probably check for available selinux in /proc/filesystems,
117 and check for active selinux with getcon_raw() == "kernel"
119 * Support --test based on current system state
121 * systemctl enable as D-Bus call
123 * consider services with any kind of link in /etc/systemd/system enabled
125 * show failure error string in "systemctl status"
127 * make sure timeouts are applied to Type=oneshot services.
129 * Maybe implement "systemctl mask" and "systemctl unmask", but not
130 document it? When doing that add switch to make this temporary by
131 placing mask links in /dev.
133 * detect LXC environment
135 * invoke vhangup() before and after invoking getty
136 http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=3c95c985fa91ecf6a0e29622bbdd13dcfc5ce9f1
138 * Maybe store in unit files whether a service should be enabled by default on package installation
139 (belongs into a distro pattern though, not in an upstream package's service file)
141 * perhaps add "systemctl reenable" as combination of "systemctl disable" and "systemctl enable"
143 * need a way to apply mount options of api vfs from systemd unit files
144 (or some other modern source?) instead of fstab?
146 * maybe introduce ExecRestartPre=
148 * figure out what happened to bluez patch
150 * Patch systemd-fsck to use -C and pass console fd to it
152 * configurable jitter for timer events
154 * Support ProcessNeededForShutdown=true to allow stuff like mdmon to
155 be killed very late after the rootfs is read only? If implement pass
156 this to shutdown binary via command line argument.
158 * Integrate "mdadm --wait-clean". Maybe just let SIGTERM to mdmon trigger the
161 * dot output for --test showing the 'initial transaction'
163 * calendar time support in timer, iCalendar semantics for the timer stuff (RFC2445)
164 - check timerfd() patch: http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/11/23/290
167 - get PR_SET_ANCHOR merged: http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/2/2/165
170 - provide CK functionality
171 - start getty only when actual vt switch happens (same model as
172 socket on-demand activation). allocate the next free tty and
173 start a getty there. this way, pressing alt-f[1-12] will switch
174 through running X and getty sessions, and any unallocated
175 activated tty will start a new getty. the hardcoding of
176 getty[1-6] will entirely go away.
177 - http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/gregkh/tty-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=fbc92a3455577ab17615cbcb91826399061bd789
179 * implicitly import "defaults" settings file into all types
181 * port over to LISTEN_FDS/LISTEN_PID:
183 - rpcbind (/var/run/rpcbind.sock!) HAVEPATCH
187 - libvirtd (/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock-ro)
188 - bluetoothd (/var/run/sdp! @/org/bluez/audio!)
191 * fingerprint.target, wireless.target, gps.target, netdevice.target
193 * set_put(), hashmap_put() return values check. i.e. == 0 doesn't free()!
195 * io priority during initialization
197 * if a service fails too often, make the service enter failed mode, and the socket, too.
199 * systemctl list-jobs - show dependencies
201 * auditd service files
203 * add systemctl switch to dump transaction without executing it
205 * suspend, resume support?
207 * readahead: btrfs/LVM SSD detection
209 * add separate man page for [Install] settings
211 * allow runtime changing of log level and target
213 * drop cap bounding set in readahead and other services
217 * udisks should not use udisks-part-id, instead use blkid. also not probe /dev/loopxxx
219 * snd-seq should go, https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=676095
221 * gnome-shell python script/glxinfo/is-accelerated must die
223 * make cryptsetup lower --iter-time
225 * patch kernel for xattr support in /dev, /proc/, /sys and /sys/fs/cgroup.
227 * patch kernel for cpu feature modalias for autoloading aes/kvm/...
228 http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/ak/linux-misc-2.6.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/cpuid-match
229 (Rafael J. Wysocki's sysdev rework is on the way. After that CPUs can be exported a proper bus.)
231 * procps, psmisc, sysvinit-tools, hostname → util-linux-ng

254 * look for close() vs. close_nointr() vs. close_nointr_nofail()
256 * check for strerror(r) instead of strerror(-r)
258 * Use PR_SET_PROCTITLE_AREA if it becomes available in the kernel
260 * %m in printf() instead of strerror();
264 * CFLAGS="-Wl,--gc-sections -Wl,--print-gc-sections -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections"
