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 * Dangling symlinks of .automount unit files in .wants/ directories, set up
7 automount points even when the original .automount file did not exist
8 anymore. Only the .mount unit was still around.
10 * make polkit checks async
12 * properly handle .mount unit state tracking when two mount points are stacked one on top of another on the exact same mount point.
14 * add 'set -e' to scripts in test/
15 * make test in test/ work with separate output dir
17 * suppress log output on shutdown when "quiet" is used
21 * make anaconda write timeout=0 for encrypted devices
23 * external: maybe it is time to patch procps so that "ps" links to
24 libsystemd-logind to print a pretty service name, seat name, session
25 name in its output. Currently it only shows cgroup membership, but
26 that's sometimes kinda hard to parse for a human.
29 - update dbus interface docs in wiki
31 * kernel cmdline switch to turn off predictable network interface names
33 * journal is not closed properly at shutdown when run in a container?
36 - localectl: add listing support for X11 keymaps, by parsing /usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/xorg.lst
37 - localectl: support new converted x11→console keymaps
39 * logind: Class property should probably know "background" or so as value for cron jobs, and the inhibition checks should filter those out too.
41 * timer logic is confused by units which are skipped due to failing condition
42 http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2013-February/008816.html
44 * timer logic is also confused if a service it triggers hasn't finished when the next timer elapses:
45 http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2013-February/009021.html
49 * BootLoaderSpec: drop allowing ext234 for $BOOT. Clarify that the
50 kernel has to be in $BOOT. Clarify that the boot loader should be
51 installed to the ESP. Define a way how an installer can figure out
52 whether a BLS compliant boot loader is installed.
54 * We currently have a dep loop between libsystemd-id128 and libsystemd-shared.
56 * man: remove .include documentation, and instead push people to use .d/*.conf
58 * disallow .include from included files
60 * timedatectl needs to show whether NTP is available at all
62 * reduce caps of systemd-localed
64 * safe_atod() is too naive, as it is vulnerable to locale parameters, should be locale independent.
66 * think about requeuing jobs when daemon-reload is issued? usecase:
67 the initrd issues a reload after fstab from the host is accessible
68 and we might want to requeue the mounts local-fs acquired through
71 * neither pkexec nor sudo initialize environ[] from the PAM environment?
73 * rework specifier logic so that we can distuingish OOM errors from other errors
75 * systemd-inhibit: refuse taking delay locks
77 * journal-or-kmsg is currently broken? See reverted commit 4a01181e460686d8b4a543b1dfa7f77c9e3c5ab8.
79 * remove any syslog support from log.c -- we probably can't do this before split-off udev is gone for good
81 * fedora: connect the timer units of a service to the service via Also= in [Install], and maybe introduce timers.target
83 * fedora: F20: go timer units all the way, leave cron.daily for cron
85 * add a tool that lists active timer units plus their next elapstion and the time the units ran last
87 * man: document the very specific env the shutdown drop-in tools live in
89 * shutdown logging: store to EFI var, and store to USB stick?
91 * man: extend runlevel(8) to mention that runlevels suck, and are dead. Maybe add runlevel(7) with a note about that too
93 * systemctl: maybe add "systemctl add-wants" or so...
95 * man: add a link to socket activation blog from systemd.socket(5)
97 * systemctl status: show drop-in snippets for service files in addition to service file path themesevles.
99 * man: add more examples to man pages
101 * man: maybe sort directives in man pages, and take sections from --help and apply them to man too
103 * add "# export SYSTEMD_PAGER=" to bash login
105 * /usr/bin/service should actually show the new command line
107 * fedora: suggest auto-restart on failure, but not on sucess and not on coredump. also, ask people to think about changing the start limit logic. Also point people to RestartPreventExitStatus=, SuccessExitStatus=
109 * write UI tool that pops up emergency messages from the journal as notification
111 * think about window-manager-run-as-user-service problem: exit 0 → activate shutdown.target; exit != 0 → restart service
113 * msgcatalog determine default language of entries from the catalog
114 file name. i.e. foobar.de_DE.catalog would set the default entry
115 name for the entries to de_DE if they aren't explicitly suffixed
118 * figure out what we do about hostnames/fqdn in hostnamectl/hostnamed
120 * use "log level" rather than "log priority" everywhere
122 * unit_name_mangle() is currently not used on "systemctl enable" and friends, only on "systemctl start"
124 * ensure sd_journal_seek_monotonic actually works properly.
126 * timedate: have global on/off switches for auto-time (NTP), and auto-timezone that connman can subscribe to.
128 * support --root= in msgcatalog compiler
130 * Honour "-" prefix for InaccessibleDirectories= and ReadOnlyDirectories= to
131 suppress errors of the specified path doesn't exist
133 * dev-setup.c: when running in a container, create a tiny stub udev
134 database with the systemd tag set for all network interfaces found,
135 so that libudev reports them as present, and systemd's .device units
138 * merge service_kill() logic into unit_kill_context() and unify the code paths
140 * introduce ExecCondition= in services
143 - fsck hookup for the ESP mount is missing
144 - write man page for efi boot generator
145 - honor language efi variables for default language selection (if there are any?)
146 - honor timezone efi variables for default timezone selection (if there are any?)
147 - introduce bootctl (backed by systemd-bootd) to control temporary and persistent default boot goal plus efi variables
149 * maybe do not install getty@tty1.service symlink in /etc but in /usr?
151 * re-enable "make check" for gtk-doc (broken for unknown reason)
153 * fstab: add new mount option x-systemd-after=/foobar/waldo to allow manual dependencies to other mount points
154 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=812826
156 * print a nicer explanation if people use variable/specifier expansion in ExecStart= for the first word
158 * mount: turn dependency information from /proc/self/mountinfo into dependency information between systemd units.
161 - logind: optionally, ignore idle-hint logic for autosuspend, block suspend as long as a session is around
162 - When we update the kernel all kind of hibernation should be prohibited until shutdown/reboot
163 - logind: wakelock/opportunistic suspend support
164 - Add pretty name for seats in logind
165 - logind: allow showing logout dialog from system?
166 - logind: spawn user@..service on login
167 - logind: non-local X11 server handling
168 - logind: add equivalent to sd_pid_get_owner_uid() to the D-Bus API
169 - pam_systemd: try to get old session id from cgroup, if audit sessionid cannot be determined
170 - pam: when leaving a session explicitly exclude the ReleaseSession() caller process from the killing spree
171 - logind: GetSessionByPID() should accept 0 as PID value
173 * exec: when deinitializating a tty device fix the perms and group, too, not only when initializing. Set access mode/gid to 0620/tty.
175 * DeviceAllow/DeviceDeny: disallow everything by default, but whitelist /dev/zero, /dev/null and friends
177 * service: watchdog logic: for testing purposes allow ping, but do not require pong
180 - import and delete pstore filesystem content at startup
181 - journald: also get thread ID from client, plus thread name
182 - journal: when waiting for journal additions in the client always sleep at least 1s or so, in order to minimize wakeups
183 - add API to close/reopen/get fd for journal client fd in libsystemd-journal.
184 - fallback to /dev/log based logging in libsystemd-journal, if we can't log natively?
185 - declare the local journal protocol stable in the wiki interface chart
186 - journal: reuse XZ context
187 - sd-journal: speed up sd_journal_get_data() with transparent hash table in bg
188 - journald: when dropping msgs due to ratelimit make sure to write
189 "dropped %u messages" not only when we are about to print the next
190 message that works, but alraedy after a short tiemout
191 - check if we can make journalctl by default use --follow mode inside of less if called without args?
192 - maybe add API to send pairs of iovecs via sd_journal_send
193 - journal: when writing journal auto-rotate if time jumps backwards
194 - gatewayd: should run under its own UID
195 - journal: add a setgid "systemd-journal" utility to invoke from libsystemd-journal, which passes fds via STDOUT and does PK access
196 - journactl: support negative filtering, i.e. FOOBAR!="waldo",
197 and !FOOBAR for events without FOOBAR.
198 - journal: when rotating, copy over old acls/access mode
199 - journal: send out marker messages every now and then, and immediately sync with fdatasync() afterwards, in order to have hourly guaranteed syncs.
200 - journal: when we haven't written anything in a while, sync to disk and mark file as offline, in order to be more often than not in a clean state
201 - journal-send.c, log.c: when the log socket is clogged, and we drop, count this and write a message about this when it gets unclogged again.
202 - journal: find a way to allow dropping history early, based on priority, other rules
203 - journal: When used on NFS, check payload hashes
204 - journal: When used on NFS make sure wake up sd_journal_wait() every 2s, to handle missing inotify
205 - Introduce journalctl -b <nr> to show journal messages of a previous boot
206 - journald: check whether it is OK if the client can still modify delivered journal entries
207 - journal live copy, based on libneon (client) and libmicrohttpd (server)
208 - journald: add kernel cmdline option to disable ratelimiting for debug purposes
209 - refuse taking lower-case variable names in sd_journal_send() and friends.
210 - journald: we currently rotate only after MaxUse+MaxFilesize has been reached.
211 - journal: deal nicely with byte-by-byte copied files, especially regards header
212 - journalctl: show multiline log messages sanely, expand tabs, and show all valid utf8 messages
213 - journal: store euid in journal if it differs from uid
214 - journal: sanely deal with entries which are larger than the individual file size, but where the components would fit
215 - journalctl: make journalctl smarter, and actually check groups that have access to /var/log/journal before printing message about recomming group membership for journal access
218 - document unit_name_mangle()
219 - document that deps in [Unit] sections ignore Alias= fileds in
220 [Install] units of other units, unless those units are disabled
221 - man: clarify that time-sync.target is not only sysv compat but also useful otherwise. Same for similar targets
222 - Document word splitting syntax for ExecStart= and friends
223 - document that units from /etc override those from /usr and /run
224 - document the exit codes when services fail before they are exec()ed
225 - document that service reload may be implemented as service reexec
226 - document in wiki how to map ical recurrence events to systemd timer unit calendar specifications
229 - systemctl list-jobs - show dependencies
230 - add systemctl switch to dump transaction without executing it
231 - Add a verbose mode to "systemctl start" and friends that explains what is being done or not done
232 - "systemctl disable" on a static unit prints no message and does
233 nothing. "systemctl enable" does nothing, and gives a bad message
234 about it. Should fix both to print nice actionable messages.
235 - print nice message from systemctl --failed if there are no entries shown, and hook that into ExecStartPre of rescue.service/emergency.service
236 - add new command to systemctl: "systemctl system-reexec" which reexecs as many daemons as virtually possible
237 - systemctl enable: improve the success messages (i.e. more human readable, less shell-like)
238 - systemctl enable: fail if target to alias into doesn't exist? maybe show how many units are enabled afterwards?
239 - systemctl: "Journal has been rotated since unit was started." message is misleading
240 - support "systemctl stop foobar@.service" to stop all units matching a certain template
241 - Something is wrong with symlink handling of "autovt@.service" in "systemctl list-unit-files"
242 - add configuration/switches to use
243 freeze (http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git) and
244 standby (https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=57793) as suspend modes
246 * introduce ntp.service (or suchlike) as symlink that is used to arbitrate between various NTP implementations
248 * deal with sendmail/postfix exclusivity
251 - configurable jitter for timer events
252 - timer events with system resume
253 - timer units should get the ability to trigger when:
254 o CLOCK_REALTIME makes jumps (TFD_TIMER_CANCEL_ON_SET)
256 - Support 2012-02~4 as syntax for specifying the fourth to last day of the month.
258 * update the kernel's TZ (sys_tz) when DST changes
260 * sync down the system time to the RTC when:
261 - CLOCK_REALTIME makes jumps (the user explicitely requested a time set)
262 - DST/timezone changes && ntp is active && RTC-in-localtime (never do it without ntp)
263 This takes care of syncing ntpdate updates to the RTC, and DST updates for localtime
264 mode, it will never touch the RTC if the no reliable time source is active or the
265 user did not request anything like it.
268 - implement conditional properties (dmi matches)
269 - hwdb --filter=ID_DRIVE_*
271 * if booted in "quiet" mode, and an error happens, turn on status
272 output again, so that the emergency mode isn't totally
273 surprising. Also, terminate plymouth.
275 * libunwind support for coredump pattern hook, and includes this in
276 the message for coredumps. After all, libunwind is now capable to
277 unwind coredumps since a few weeks ago. This probably requires that
278 we have nice support for multi-line messages on display in
279 logs-show.c. Alternatively: use libelfutil, which seems to be the
280 better supported alternative.
282 * figure out relation of --all and --full in the various tools
284 * add libsystemd-password or so to query passwords during boot using the password agent logic
286 * If we show an error about a unit (such as not showing up) and it has no Description string, then show a description string generated form the reverse of unit_name_mangle().
288 * fedup: add --unit to systemctl switch-root somehow
289 * fedup: don't delete initrd on switch-root
293 - timedated: export boolean that clarifies whether NTP is even available
294 - timedated: refuse time changes when NTP is on
296 * clean up date formatting and parsing so that all absolute/relative timestamps we format can also be parsed
298 * introduce generic AUGMENT_PID=, AUGMENT_DEVICE= fields
300 * on shutdown: move utmp, wall, audit logic all into PID 1 (or logind?), get rid of systemd-update-utmp-runlevel
302 * add "provisioning" instructions to setup an empty /etc + /var
303 - used to setup a new container from a shared /usr
304 - superset of tmpfiles model
305 - instructions shipped by packages and stored in /usr/lib/
306 - compose /etc/passwd and /etc/group, copy files
307 - able to create uid + gid used by packages, for file ownership
309 * make repeated alt-ctrl-del presses printing a dump, or even force a reboot without
310 waiting for the timeout
312 * high level net_prio setting in execution context
314 * hostnamed: before returning information from /etc/machine-info.conf check the modification data and reread. Similar for localed, ...
316 * currently x-systemd.timeout is lost in the initrd, since crypttab is copied into dracut, but fstab isn't
318 * WorkingDirectory: support env var replacements like in ExecStart= so that people can use $HOME
320 * refuse boot if /etc/machine-id is not useful (or set taint?)
323 - nspawn: consider changing users for -u with su, so that NSS resolving works correctly
324 - nspawn: implement personality changes a la linux32(8)
325 - nspawn: --read-only is not applied recursively to submounts
326 - nspawn: make use of device cgroup controller by default
327 - bind mount read-only the cgroup tree higher than nspawn
328 - nspawn: investigate whether we can support the same as LXC's
329 lxc.network.type=phys mode, and pass through entire network
330 interfaces to the container
331 - nspawn: maybe add a way to drop additional caps, in addition to add additional caps
332 - nspawn: maybe explicitly reset loginuid?
333 - nspawn: move all containers to name=systemd:/containers/, and introduce externally visible names for containers
334 - nspawn: make it work for dwalsh and shared /usr containers -- tmpfs mounts as command line parameters, selinux exec context
337 - cryptsetup-generator: warn if the password files are world-readable
338 - cryptsetup-generator: add RequiresMountsFor= to cryptseup service files referencing a file, similar for devices
339 - cryptsetup-generator: allow specification of passwords in crypttab itself
340 - move cryptsetup key caching into kernel keyctl?
341 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54982
342 - when key file cannot be found, read it from kbd in cryptsetup
344 * move debug shell to tty6 and make sure this doesn't break the gettys on tty6
346 * hw watchdog: optionally try to use the preset watchdog timeout instead of always overriding it
347 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54712
349 * after deserializing sockets in socket.c we should reapply sockopts and things
351 * make timer units go away after they elapsed
353 * http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2012-September/006502.html
354 (network and remote-fs on shutdown)
356 * come up with a nice way to write queue/read_ahead_kb for a block device without interfering with readahead
358 * move PID 1 segfaults to /var/lib/systemd/coredump?
360 * create /sbin/init symlinks from the build system
362 * Query Paul Moore about relabelling socket fds while they are open
364 * system.conf should have controls for cgroups
366 * allow writing multiple conditions in unit files on one line
368 * explore multiple service instances per listening socket idea
370 * shutdown: don't read-only mount anything when running in container
372 * MountFlags=shared acts as MountFlags=slave right now.
374 * ReadOnlyDirectories= is not applied recursively to submounts
376 * drop PID 1 reloading, only do reexecing (difficult: Reload()
377 currently is properly synchronous, Reexec() is weird, because we
378 can't delay the response properly until we are back, so instead of
379 being properly synchronous we just keep open the fd and close it
380 when done. That means clients don't get a successful method reply,
381 but much rather a disconnect on success.
383 * remember which condition failed for services, not just the fact that something failed
385 * use opterr = 0 for all getopt tools
387 * properly handle loop back mounts via fstab, especially regards to fsck/passno
389 * allow services with no ExecStart= but with an ExecStop=
391 * dracut-shutdown needs to be ordered before unmounting /boot
393 * initialize the hostname from the fs label of /, if /etc/hostname does not exist?
395 * rename "userspace" to "core-os"
398 - syscall filter: add knowledge about compat syscalls
399 - syscall filter: don't enforce no new privs?
400 - syscall filter: option to return EPERM rather than SIGSYS?
401 - syscall filter: port to libseccomp
402 - system-wide seccomp filter
404 * systemd-analyze: data collection tools should be lightweight (few dependencies); data analysis tools can be heavyweight
406 * .device aliases need to be implemented with the "following" logic, probably.
408 * load-fragment: when loading a unit file via a chain of symlinks
409 verify that it isn't masked via any of the names traversed.
411 * introduce Type=pid-file
413 * maybe allow services with ExecStop= set, but no ExecStart=?
415 * change Requires=basic.target to RequisiteOverride=basic.target
417 * support rd.luks.allow-discards= kernel cmdline params in cryptsetup generator
419 * drop accountsservice's StandardOutput=syslog and Type=dbus fields
421 * when breaking cycles drop sysv services first, then services from /run, then from /etc, then from /usr
423 * move passno parsing to fstab generator
425 * automount: implement expire:
426 - set superblock timeout AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_TIMEOUT_CMD
427 - periodically run AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_EXPIRE_CMD
428 - every timeout/4 (original autofs logic)
429 - blocking, needs a thread
431 - receive expire packet on pipe if kernel tells the timeout is over
433 - answer expire packet on pipe with AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_{READY,FAIL}_CMD
434 - AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_EXPIRE_CMD returns
436 * services which create their own subcgroups break cgroup-empty notification (needs to be fixed in the kernel)
438 * ExecOnFailure=/usr/bin/foo
440 * ConditionSecurity= should learn about IMA and SMACK
443 - remove src/udev/udev-builtin-firmware.c (CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER=n)
445 - unify utf8 validator code with shared/
447 - add trigger --subsystem-match=usb/usb_device device
449 * cleanup syslog 'priority' vs. 'level' wording
451 * dbus upstream still refers to dbus.target and shouldn't
453 * 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
455 * support container_ttys=
457 * introduce mix of BindTo and Requisite
459 * add DeleteSocketsOnStop=yes|no option to socket units
461 * There's currently no way to cancel fsck (used to be possible via C-c or c on the console)
463 * add option to sockets to avoid activation. Instead just drop packets/connections, see http://cyberelk.net/tim/2012/02/15/portreserve-systemd-solution/
465 * default unix qlen is too small (10). bump sysctl? add sockopt?
467 * figure out whether we should leave dbus around during shutdown
469 * dbus: in fedora, make /var/lib/dbus/machine-id a symlink to /etc/machine-id
471 * dbus: move dbus to early boot
473 * save coredump in Windows/Mozilla minidump format
475 * support crash reporting operation modes (https://live.gnome.org/GnomeOS/Design/Whiteboards/ProblemReporting)
477 * clean up session cgroups that remain after logout (think sshd), but eventually run empty
479 * when an instanced service exits, remove its parent cgroup too if possible.
481 * default to actual 32bit PIDs, via /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max
483 * be able to specify a forced restart of service A where service B depends on, in case B
484 needs to be auto-respawned?
486 * when a bus name of a service disappears from the bus make sure to queue further activation requests
488 * tmpfiles: apply "x" on "D" too (see patch from William Douglas)
490 * for services: don't set $HOME in services unless requested
492 * hide PAM/TCPWrap options in fragment parser when compile time disabled
494 * when we automatically restart a service, ensure we restart its rdeps, too.
496 * allow Type=simple with PIDFile=
497 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=723942
499 * move PAM code into its own binary
501 * implement Register= switch in .socket units to enable registration
502 in Avahi, RPC and other socket registration services.
504 * make sure systemd-ask-password-wall does not shutdown systemd-ask-password-console too early
506 * support sd_notify() style notification when reload begins (RELOADING=1), reload is finished (READY=1), and add ReloadSignal= then to use in combination
508 * support sd_notify() style notification when shutting down, to make auto-exit bus services work (STOPPING=1)
510 * verify that the AF_UNIX sockets of a service in the fs still exist
511 when we start a service in order to avoid confusion when a user
512 assumes starting a service is enough to make it accessible
514 * Make it possible to set the keymap independently from the font on
515 the kernel cmdline. Right now setting one resets also the other.
517 * and a dbus call to generate target from current state
520 - drop /.readahead on bigger upgrades with yum
521 - move readahead files into /var (look for them with .path units?)
522 - readahead: use BTRFS_IOC_DEFRAG_RANGE instead of BTRFS_IOC_DEFRAG ioctl, with START_IO
523 - readahead: when bumping /sys readahead variable save mtime and compare later to detect changes
524 - readahead: make use of EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT, as used by http://e4rat.sourceforge.net/
526 * add support for /bin/mount -s
528 * GC unreferenced jobs (such as .device jobs)
530 * write blog stories about:
531 - hwdb: what belongs into it, lsusb
532 - enabling dbus services
534 - how to make changes to sysctl and sysfs attributes
536 - how to pass throw-away units to systemd, or dynamically change properties of existing units
537 - how to integrate cgconfig and suchlike with systemd
538 - testing with Harald's awesome test kit
540 - how to develop against journal browsing APIs
541 - the journal HTTP iface
542 - non-cgroup resource management
543 - dynamic resource management with cgroups
544 - refreshed, longer missions statement
545 - calendar time events
546 - init=/bin/sh vs. "emergency" mode, vs. "rescue" mode, vs. "multi-user" mode, vs. "graphical" mode, and the debug shell
547 - how to create your own target
548 - instantiated apache, dovecot and so on
549 - hooking a script into various stages of shutdown/rearly booot
551 * allow port=0 in .socket units
553 * support systemd.mask= on the kernel command line.
555 * reuse mkdtemp namespace dirs in /tmp?
557 * recreate systemd's D-Bus private socket file on SIGUSR2
559 * Support --test based on current system state
561 * investigate whether the gnome pty helper should be moved into systemd, to provide cgroup support.
563 * maybe introduce ExecRestartPre=
565 * dot output for --test showing the 'initial transaction'
567 * port over to LISTEN_FDS/LISTEN_PID:
568 - rpcbind (/var/run/rpcbind.sock!) HAVEPATCH
572 - libvirtd (/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock-ro)
573 - bluetoothd (/var/run/sdp! @/org/bluez/audio!)
576 * fingerprint.target, wireless.target, gps.target, netdevice.target
578 * io priority during initialization
580 * drop cap bounding set in readahead and other services
583 - export sd_journal_get_catalog (in systemd.journal._reader)
584 - export sd_journal_get_catalog_for_message_id (in systemd.id128)
585 - allow reading of only select fields in systemd.journal._reader.Reader
586 - export sd_journal_test_cursor in systemd.journal._reader.Reader
587 - export sd_journal_get_usage in systemd.journal._reader.Reader
588 - add systemd.journal._reader._Reader.closed attribute (it can
589 be just "return self->j != NULL")
590 - figure out a simple way to wait for journal events in a way that
597 - natively watch for dbus-*.service symlinks (PENDING)
598 - allow specification of socket mode/umask when allocating DBusServer
599 - allow disabling of fd passing when connecting a AF_UNIX connection
600 - allow disabling of UID passing for AUTH EXTERNAL
601 - always pass cred data along each message
602 - teach dbus to activate all services it finds in /etc/systemd/services/org-*.service
604 * fix alsa mixer restore to not print error when no config is stored
606 * make cryptsetup lower --iter-time
608 * patch kernel for xattr support in /dev, /proc/, /sys?
610 * NTP: the kernel's 11-minutes-mode syncs the system time to the RTC, but only
611 in an ~30 minutes window. It does not adjust larger differences. Find a way
612 to tell the kernel, to always do a full time sync when the RTC is in UTC and
613 we are in 11-minutes-mode. When we trust the system time to NTP we also want
616 * kernel: add device_type = "fb", "fbcon" to class "graphics"
619 - plot per-process IO utilization
620 - group processes based on service association (cgroups)
621 - document initcall_debug
625 * look for close() vs. close_nointr() vs. close_nointr_nofail()
627 * check for strerror(r) instead of strerror(-r)
629 * Use PR_SET_PROCTITLE_AREA if it becomes available in the kernel
631 * %m in printf() instead of strerror(errno);
635 * set_put(), hashmap_put() return values check. i.e. == 0 doesn't free()!
637 * use secure_getenv() instead of getenv() where appropriate
639 * link up selected blog stories from man pages and unit files Documentation= fields
641 Scheduled for removal or fixing:
643 * xxxOverridable dependencies (probably: fix)
