* Should systemctl status \* work on all unit types, not just .service?
-* enabling an instance unit creates a pointless link, and
- the unit will be started with getty@getty.service:
- $ systemctl enable getty@.service
- ln -s '/usr/lib/systemd/system/getty@.service' '/etc/systemd/system/getty.target.wants/getty@.service'
-
* Dangling symlinks of .automount unit files in .wants/ directories, set up
automount points even when the original .automount file did not exist
anymore. Only the .mount unit was still around.
* properly handle .mount unit state tracking when two mount points are stacked one on top of another on the exact same mount point.
-* shorten the message to sane length:
-
- Cannot add dependency job for unit display-manager.service, ignoring: Unit display-manager.service failed to load: No such file or directory. See system logs and 'systemctl status display-manager.service' for details.
-
-* sd_bus_unref() is broken regarding self-references and "pseudo thread-safety".
- See the comment in sd_bus_unref() for more..

External:
* Fedora: when installing fedora with yum --installroot /var/run is a directory, not a symlink
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=975864
* Fedora: post FPC ticket to move add %tmpfiles_create to the packaging guidelines
+* Fedora: move kernel image to /usr/lib/modules/, kernel-install will take care of populating /boot
+
+* Fedora: remove /etc/resolv.conf tmpfiles hack
+
Features:
-* udev should make /dev/loop-control and /dev/btrfs-control owned by the "disk" group, https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1045432
+* networkd:
+ - ipv4ll with multiple interfaces doesn't work when both dhcp and
+ ipv4ll is used. for some reasons the kernel will currently pick an
+ ipv4ll source address to reach non-ipv4ll gateways.
+ - dhcp and ipv4ll should probably be skipped for "lo" devices, even
+ if the user has a catchall .network file installed, that might
+ theoretically match it.
+ - when I plug/unplug my wired ethernet the operational state changes
+ between "unknown" and "carrier", not "dormant" and "carrier".
+ - we probably should introduce a new operational state that
+ indicates that we are trying to acquire some configuration for a
+ link but haven't acquired any yet. Just to inform the admin that
+ networkd cares about an interface, but is still in progress..
+
+* resolved:
+ - DNSSEC
+ - use base64 for key presentation?
+ - add display of private key types (http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4034#appendix-A.1.1)?
+ - add nice formatting of DNS timestamps
+ - DNS
+ - search paths
+ - mDNS/DNS-SD
+ - avahi compat
+ - DNS-SD service registration from socket units
+ - edns0
+ - dname
+ - cname on PTR (?)
+
+* Ignore .busname units on classic D-Bus boots, systemd-resolved cannot be started on kdbus
+ without the active policy and should get a Wants=org.freedesktop.resolve1.busname to
+ pull-in the policy.
+
+* Allow multiple ExecStart= for all Type= settings, so that we can cover rescue.service nicely
+
+* the resolv.conf tmpfiles line should be covered by ENABLE_NETWORKD...
+
+* sysusers:
+ - also create entries in /etc/shadow, /etc/gshadow
+ - allow setting the home directory of system users
+
+* Add a new verb "systemctl top"
+
+* order OnCalendar timer units after timer-sync.target if DefaultDependencies=no so that we don't trigger them prematurely
+
+* refuse mounting on symlinks
+
+* logind: allow users to kill or lock their own sessions
+
+* add new gpt type for btrfs volumes
* support empty /etc boots nicely:
- - tmpfiles: add nice way to copy files /usr/share/factory/etc → /etc
- nspawn/gpt-generator: introduce new gpt partition type for /usr
+ - fstab-generator: support systemd.volatile=yes|no|state on the kernel cmdline, too, similar to nspawn's --volatile=
+ - fstab-generator: add support for usr= in addition to root= on the kernel cmdline
* generator that automatically discovers btrfs subvolumes, identifies their purpose based on some xattr on them.
* timer units: actually add extra delays to timer units with high AccuracySec values, don't start them already when we are awake...
-* timesyncd:
- - hookup with networkd: NTP servers from dhcp
+* timesyncd - hookup with networkd: NTP servers from dhcp
* a way for container managers to turn off getty starting via $container_headless= or so...
* figure out a nice way how we can let the admin know what child/sibling unit causes cgroup membership for a specific unit
-* add a kernel command line option to enable the debug shell
-
* journalctl: add the ability to look for the most recent process of a binary. journalctl /usr/bin/X11 --pid=-1 or so...
* set NOTIFY_SOCKET also for control processes
-* drop parsing of chkconfig header lines from service.c
-
* mount_cgroup_controllers(): symlinks need to get the label applied
-* For timer units: add some mechanisms so that timer units that trigger immediately on boot do not have the services they run added to the initial transaction and thus confuse Type=idle.
+* For timer units: add some mechanisms so that timer units that trigger immediately on boot do not have the services
+ they run added to the initial transaction and thus confuse Type=idle.
* Add timeout to early-boot, and shut down the system if it is hit. Solves the laptop-in-bag problem and is useful for embedded cases
- add 'set -e' to scripts in test/
- make stuff in test/ work with separate output dir
-* systemctl delete x.snapshot leaves no trace in logs (at least at default level).
-
-* make the coredump collector tool move itself into the user's cgroup
- so that the coredump is properly written to the user's own journal
- file.
-
* seems that when we follow symlinks to units we prefer the symlink
destination path over /etc and /usr. We should not do that. Instead
/etc should always override /run+/usr and also any symlink
mode, it will never touch the RTC if the no reliable time source is active or the
user did not request anything like it.
-* libunwind support for coredump pattern hook, and includes this in
- the message for coredumps. After all, libunwind is now capable to
- unwind coredumps since a few weeks ago. This probably requires that
- we have nice support for multi-line messages on display in
- logs-show.c. Alternatively: use libelfutil, which seems to be the
- better supported alternative.
-
* add libsystemd-password or so to query passwords during boot using the password agent logic
* 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().
* allow port=0 in .socket units
-* support systemd.mask= on the kernel command line.
-
* recreate systemd's D-Bus private socket file on SIGUSR2
* Support --test based on current system state
* networkd:
- add more keys to [Route] and [Address] sections
- add support for more DHCPv4 options (and, longer term, other kinds of dynamic config)
- - send hostname to DHCP server
- add proper initrd support (in particular generate .network/.link files based on /proc/cmdline)
- add reduced [Link] support to .network files
- add Scope= parsing option for [Network]
- properly handle routerless dhcp leases
- - set lifetime on the address acquired from dhcp
- - patch kernel to support module alias for tunnel device (ipip/sit/gre),
- then remove remove libkmod dependency and CAP_SYS_MODULE
- - add veth netdev support (c.f. http://shorewall.net/bridge-Shorewall-perl.html#veth)
- - add tun/tap netdev support
- add more attribute support for SIT tunnel
+ - work with non-ethernet devices
+ - add support for more bond options
* networkd-wait-online:
- make operstates to wait for configurable?
* dhcp:
- figure out how much we can increase Maximum Message Size
- export timezone information
- - FORCERENEW
+ - support RFC4702 (pass FQDN)
+
+* dhcp6:
+ - add functions to set previously stored IPv6 addresses on startup and get
+ them at shutdown; store them in client->ia_na
+ - write more test cases
+ - implement and do duplicate address detection, see rfc 4862, 5.4.
+ - implement reconfigure support, see 5.3., 15.11. and 22.20.
+ - implement information request, see 1.2. and 18.1.5.
+ - implement support for temporary adressess (IA_TA)
+ - implement elapsed time option
+ - implement dhcpv6 authentication
+ - investigate the usefulness of Confirm messages; i.e. are there any
+ situations where the link changes without any loss in carrier detection
+ or interface down
+ - some servers don't do rapid commit without a filled in IA_NA, verify
+ this behavior
External:
* register catalog database signature as file magic
+* zsh shell completion: <command> <verb> -<TAB> should complete options, but currently
+ does not
+
Regularly:
* look for close() vs. close_nointr() vs. close_nointr_nofail()
