3 * swap units that are activated by one name but shown in the kernel under another are semi-broken
5 * isolate multi-user.target doesn't start a getty@tty1 if we run it from graphical.target
7 * NFS, networkmanager ordering issue (PENDING)
9 * add fstab fields to add wait timeouts, change Wants to Requires by local-fs.target
11 * hook emergency.target into local-fs.target in some way as OnFailure with isolate
13 * save/restore tool for SysV as requested by FPC (PENDING)
15 * bind mounts are ignored
17 * 0595f9a1c182a84581749823ef47c5f292e545f9 is borked, freezes shutdown
18 (path: after installing inotify watches, recheck file again to fix race)
20 * NM should pull in network.target, ntpd should pull in rtc-set.target.
22 * bluetooth should be possible to disable
24 * fix alsa mixer restore to not print error when no config is stored
28 * take BSD file lock on tty devices when using them?
30 * tmpfiles should allow two identical lines
31 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=690253
33 * tmpfiles should create leading directories for d,D,f,F?
35 * avoid any flag files, or readahead files in /, we need to support r/o /
36 or / on tmpfs like Android setups.
38 * teach dbus to activate all services it finds in /etc/systemd/services/org-*.service
40 * document default dependencies
42 * Find a way to replace /var/run, /var/lock directories with
43 symlinks during an RPM package upgrade (filesystem.rpm or systemd.rpm).
44 We soon want to get rid of var-run.mount var-lock.mount units.
46 * when key file cannot be found, read it from kbd in cryptsetup
48 * get rid of random file name in generator directory?
49 /run/systemd/generator-IH1vFu
51 * fix SD_WARNING syslog stuff in src/sd-daemon.h to include the
52 LOG_DAEMON(3) facility value. Never use the LOG_KERNEL(0) facility.
54 * add switch to systemctl to show enabled but not running services. Or
55 another switch that shows service that have been running since
56 booting but aren't running anymore.
58 * reuse mkdtemp namespace dirs in /tmp?
60 * don't strip facility from kmsg log messages as soon as that is possible:
61 http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=9d90c8d9cde929cbc575098e825d7c29d9f45054
63 * recreate systemd's D-Bus private socket file on SIGUSR2
65 * be more specific what failed:
67 Unmounting file systems.
68 Not all file systems unmounted, 1 left.
70 Detaching loop devices.
72 Cannot finalize remaining file systems and devices, trying to kill remaining processes.
73 Unmounting file systems.
74 Not all file systems unmounted, 1 left.
75 Cannot finalize remaining file systems and devices, giving up.
78 * check for compiled-in, but not active selinux, and don't print any warnings
79 about policy loading. Probably check for available selinux in /proc/filesystems,
80 and check for active selinux with getcon_raw() == "kernel"
82 * optionally create watched directories in .path units
84 * Support --test based on current system state
86 * consider services with no [Install] section and stored in /lib enabled by "systemctl is-enabled"
88 * consider services with any kind of link in /etc/systemd/system enabled
90 * show failure error string in "systemctl status"
92 * make sure timeouts are applied to Type=oneshot services.
94 * Maybe implement "systemctl mask" and "systemctl unmask", but not
95 document it? When doing that add switch to make this temporary by
96 placing mask links in /dev.
97 Consider moving the actual fs operations into systemd behind a D-Bus
98 interface, to make namespaces/containers/remote connections work properly.
100 * detect LXC environment
102 * invoke vhangup() before and after invoking getty
103 http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=3c95c985fa91ecf6a0e29622bbdd13dcfc5ce9f1
105 * support "auto" and "comment=systemd.automount" at the same time for an fstab entry
107 * Maybe store in unit files whether a service should be enabled by default on package installation
108 (belongs into a distro pattern though, not in an upstream package's service file)
110 * perhaps add "systemctl reenable" as combination of "systemctl disable" and "systemctl enable"
112 * need a way to apply mount options of api vfs from systemd unit files
113 (or some other modern source?) instead of fstab
115 * maybe introduce ExecRestartPre=
117 * figure out what happened to bluez patch
119 * Patch systemd-fsck to use -C and pass console fd to it
121 * support remote/ssh systemctl/systemadm, and local privileged access → dbus patches need to be merged
123 * configurable jitter for timer events
125 * Support ProcessNeededForShutdown=true to allow stuff like mdmon
126 to be killed very late after the rootfs is read only (?)
128 * Integrate "mdadm --wait-clean". Maybe just let SIGTERM to mdmon trigger the
131 * dot output for --test showing the 'initial transaction'
133 * calendar time support in timer, iCalendar semantics for the timer stuff (RFC2445)
134 - check timerfd() patch: http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/11/23/290
137 - get PR_SET_ANCHOR merged: http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/2/2/165
140 - provide CK functionality
141 - start getty only when actual vt switch happens (same model as
142 socket on-demand activation). allocate the next free tty and
143 start a getty there. this way, pressing alt-f[1-12] will switch
144 through running X and getty sessions, and any unallocated
145 activated tty will start a new getty. the hardcoding of
146 getty[1-6] will entirely go away.
147 - http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/gregkh/tty-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=fbc92a3455577ab17615cbcb91826399061bd789
149 * implicitly import "defaults" settings file into all types
151 * port over to LISTEN_FDS/LISTEN_PID:
153 - rpcbind (/var/run/rpcbind.sock!) HAVEPATCH
157 - libvirtd (/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock-ro)
158 - bluetoothd (/var/run/sdp! @/org/bluez/audio!)
161 * fingerprint.target, wireless.target, gps.target
163 * set_put(), hashmap_put() return values check. i.e. == 0 doesn't free()!
165 * io priority during initialization
167 * if a service fails too often, make the service enter failed mode, and the socket, too.
169 * systemctl list-jobs - show dependencies
171 * accountsservice is borked
173 * auditd service files
175 * add systemctl switch to dump transaction without executing it
177 * suspend, resume support?
179 * readahead: btrfs/LVM SSD detection
181 * add separate man page for [Install] settings
183 * allow runtime changing of log level and target
187 * udisks should not use udisks-part-id, instead use blkid. also not probe /dev/loopxxx
189 * snd-seq should go, https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=676095
191 * gnome-shell python script/glxinfo/is-accelerated must die
193 * make cryptsetup lower --iter-time
195 * patch kernel for xattr support in /dev, /proc/, /sys and /sys/fs/cgroup.
197 * patch kernel for cpu feature modalias for autoloading aes/kvm/...
198 http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/ak/linux-misc-2.6.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/cpuid-match
199 (Rafael J. Wysocki's sysdev rework is on the way. After that CPUs can be exported a proper bus.)
201 * procps, psmisc, sysvinit-tools, hostname → util-linux-ng

224 * look for close() vs. close_nointr() vs. close_nointr_nofail()
226 * check for strerror(r) instead of strerror(-r)
228 * Use PR_SET_PROCTITLE_AREA if it becomes available in the kernel
230 * %m in printf() instead of strerror();
234 * CFLAGS="-Wl,--gc-sections -Wl,--print-gc-sections -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections"
