Bugfixes:
+* journal: setting MaxRetentionSec= to any value creates a /dev/kmsg loop:
+ epoll_wait(7, {?} 0x7fff220df200, 1, 799489421) = 1
+ read(8, "46,156226155,545165984,-;systemd"..., 8192) = 75
+ writev(6, [{"<46>", 4}, {"systemd-journald", 16}, {"[3822]: ", 8}, {"Sleeping for 799489421 ms", 25}, {"\n", 1}], 5) = 54

* check systemd-tmpfiles for selinux context hookup for mknod(), symlink() and similar
* swap units that are activated by one name but shown in the kernel under another are semi-broken
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2013-February/009021.html
Features:
+* teach udev + logind's uaccess to somehow handle the "dead" device nodes from:
+ /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/modules.devname
+ and apply ACLs to them if they have TAG=="uaccess" in udev rules.
+
+* clean up early boot services, and put them all before sysinit.target
+ and leave basic.target alone.
+
+* introduce timers.target and paths.target and automatucally order all
+ timers and paths before it and after sysinit.target.
+
+* x-initrd-rootfs.mount in fstab-generator needs to go or get a saner name
+
+* matching against units is currently broken in journalctl. We really
+ need another AND level in the expressions,
+ i.e. sd_journal_add_conjunction().
+
+* add ConditionArchitecture= or so
+
+* teach ConditionKernelCommandLine= globs or regexes (in order to match foobar={no,0,off})
+
+* hostnamectl: when a passed pretty hostname also qualifies as low-level name, then only set low-level name, and unset the pretty hostname
+
+* we should log capabilities too
* Support SO_REUSEPORT with socket activation:
- Let systemd maintain a pool of servers.
* disallow .include from included files
-* timedatectl needs to show whether NTP is available at all
-
-* reduce caps of systemd-localed
-
* safe_atod() is too naive, as it is vulnerable to locale parameters, should be locale independent.
* think about requeuing jobs when daemon-reload is issued? usecase:
* use "log level" rather than "log priority" everywhere
-* unit_name_mangle() is currently not used on "systemctl enable" and friends, only on "systemctl start"
-
* ensure sd_journal_seek_monotonic actually works properly.
* timedate: have global on/off switches for auto-time (NTP), and auto-timezone that connman can subscribe to.
so that libudev reports them as present, and systemd's .device units
will be activated.
-* merge service_kill() logic into unit_kill_context() and unify the code paths
+* merge unit_kill_common() and unit_kill_context()
* introduce ExecCondition= in services
- logind: spawn user@..service on login
- logind: non-local X11 server handling
- logind: add equivalent to sd_pid_get_owner_uid() to the D-Bus API
- - pam_systemd: try to get old session id from cgroup, if audit sessionid cannot be determined
- pam: when leaving a session explicitly exclude the ReleaseSession() caller process from the killing spree
- logind: GetSessionByPID() should accept 0 as PID value
* service: watchdog logic: for testing purposes allow ping, but do not require pong
* journal:
+ - do not use magic msync() in src/journal/journal-file.c, just call fsync()
+ <alxchk> poettering: looks like msync just calls vfs_fsync
+ http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/mm/msync.c#n18
- import and delete pstore filesystem content at startup
- journald: also get thread ID from client, plus thread name
- journal: when waiting for journal additions in the client always sleep at least 1s or so, in order to minimize wakeups
* fedup: generator
* timedated:
- - timedated: export boolean that clarifies whether NTP is even available
- timedated: refuse time changes when NTP is on
* clean up date formatting and parsing so that all absolute/relative timestamps we format can also be parsed
- syscall filter: port to libseccomp
- system-wide seccomp filter
-* systemd-analyze: data collection tools should be lightweight (few dependencies); data analysis tools can be heavyweight
-
* .device aliases need to be implemented with the "following" logic, probably.
* load-fragment: when loading a unit file via a chain of symlinks
* drop cap bounding set in readahead and other services
* systemd-python:
- - allow reading of only select fields in systemd.journal._reader.Reader
- - export sd_journal_test_cursor in systemd.journal._reader.Reader
- - export sd_journal_get_usage in systemd.journal._reader.Reader
- figure out a simple way to wait for journal events in a way that
works with ^C
- add documentation to systemd.daemon
