* properly handle .mount unit state tracking when two mount points are stacked one on top of another on the exact same mount point.
-F18:
-
+Fedora 19:
* Retest multi-seat
-* add rpm macros for %rulesdir, %hwdbdir, update rules/hwdb call
+* create /var/log/journal/
Features:
-* RPM macros for message catalog update
+* if we have systemd-analyze in C "systemctl dot" should move there too
-* man page for catalog APIs
+* fsck hookup for the ESP mount is missing
-* When switching root, first try pivot_root, only then fall back to overmounting, to deal sanely with both the initial and later switch roots
+* external: maybe it is time to patch procps so that "ps" links to
+ libsystemd-logind to print a pretty service name, seat name, session
+ name in its output. Currently it only shows cgroup membership, but
+ that's sometimes kinda hard to parse.
-* When shutdown.target is queued begin with an asynchronous sync()?
+* write man page for efi boot generator
+
+* document bootloader interface in wiki
+
+* link runlevel targets on install only if sysv compat is enabled
+
+* logind: when executing sleep/shutdown job, keep track of its id, and
+ as long as the job is running refuse any further operation.
+
+* maybe not install getty@tty1.service symlink in /etc but in /usr?
+
+* re-enable "make check" for gtk-doc (broken for unknown reason)
+
+* logind: make PrepareForSuspend(false) an official api for notification of resumes
+
+* "systemctl disable" on a static unit prints no message and does
+ nothing. "systemctl enable" does nothing, and gives a bad message
+ about it. Should fix both to print nice actionable messages.
+
+* fstab: add new mount option x-systemd-after=/foobar/waldo to allow manual dependencies to other mount points
+ https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=812826
+
+* add "loginctl unlock-sessions" as counterpart for "loginctl lock-sessions"
+
+* cgroup attrs:
+ - don't filter out duplicate settings
+ - support high-level cgroup setting syntax in systemctl. Example: "systemctl set-cgroup-attr MemoryLimit 5K"
+ - support writte string mapping even for non-high-level settings
+ - add man page for systemctl commands
+ - make sure we work fine with multi-line strings
+
+* print a nicer explanation if people use variable/specifier expansion in ExecStart= for the first word
+
+* kernel cmdline switch to turn off predictable network interface names
+
+* mount: turn dependency information from /proc/self/mountinfo into dependency information between systemd units.
-* Add ConditionBatteryPower= or ConditionACPower=? (but definitely not both)
+* logind: optionally, ignore idle-hint logic for autosuspend, block suspend as long as a session is around
+
+* service: when killing a service with SIGKILL always kill all processes, even if for SIGTERM we only killed the main process
+
+* exec: when deinitializating a tty device fix the perms and group, too, not only when initializing. Set access mode/gid to 0620/tty.
+
+* DeviceAllow/DeviceDeny: disallow everything by default, but whitelist /dev/zero, /dev/null and friends
+
+* service: watchdog logic: for testing purposes allow ping, but do not require pong
+
+* journald: when dropping msgs due to ratelimit make sure to write
+ "dropped %u messages" not only when we are about to print the next
+ message that works, but alraedy after a short tiemout
+
+* journald: also get thread ID from client, plus thread name
+
+* check if we can make journalctl by default use --follow mode inside of less if called without args?
+
+* Add a verbose mode to "systemctl start" and friends that explains what is being done or not done
+
+* journal is not closed properly at shutdown when run in a container?
+
+* journal: when waiting for journal additions in the client always sleep at least 1s or so, in order to minimize wakeups
+
+* When shutdown.target is queued begin with an asynchronous sync()?
* add API to close/reopen/get fd for journal client fd in libsystemd-journal.
* declare the local journal protocol stable in the wiki interface chart
-* introduce ntp.service (or suchlike) as symlink that is used to arbitrate between various
- NTP implementations
-
-* sd-journal: don't return fields > a threshold by default
* journal: reuse XZ context
+
* sd-journal: speed up sd_journal_get_data() with transparent hash table in bg
* introduce ntp.service (or suchlike) as symlink that is used to arbitrate between various NTP implementations
* hwdb:
- implement conditional properties (dmi matches)
- hwdb --filter=ID_DRIVE_*
- - find out what to do for blockdevs and skipping scsi modaliases
- - move writing code to src/libudev/libudev-hwdb-private.c
-* if booted in "quiet" mode, and an error happens, turn on status output again, so that the emergency mode isn't totally surprising
+* if booted in "quiet" mode, and an error happens, turn on status
+ output again, so that the emergency mode isn't totally
+ surprising. Also, terminate plymouth.
* localectl: add listing support for X11 keymaps, by parsing /usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/xorg.lst
* 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.
+ 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.
* figure out relation of --all and --full in the various tools
* journal: add a setgid "adm" utility to invoke from libsystemd-journal, which passes fds via STDOUT and does PK access
-* link up selected blog stories from man pages?
-
* journactl: support negative filtering, i.e. FOOBAR!="waldo",
and !FOOBAR for events without FOOBAR.
* document that people can use file system ACLs to manage access to journal files, with example
-* don't show cgroup in "systemctl status" if empty/non-existent, especially for foreign .mount units
-
* timedated: export boolean that clarifies whether NTP is even available
* timedated: refuse time changes when NTP is on
* WorkingDirectory: support env var replacements like in ExecStart= so that people can use $HOME
-* refuse boot if /etc/machine-id is not useful
+* refuse boot if /etc/machine-id is not useful (or set taint?)
* nspawn: consider changing users for -u with su, so that NSS resolving works correctly
* nspawn: implement personality changes a la linux32(8)
-* nspawn: reset all aux groups
-
* cryptsetup-generator: warn if the password files are world-readable
* cryptsetup-generator: add RequiresMountsFor= to cryptseup service files referencing a file, similar for devices
* document that deps in [Unit] sections ignore Alias= fileds in
[Install] units of other units, unless those units are disabled
-* need to update LGPL2.1 text to newest version (with updated FSF address)
-
-* systemctl: when powering down/suspending check for inhibitors, and warn.
-
* instantiated [Install] for target units
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54377
* move cryptsetup key caching into kernel keyctl?
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54982
-* make nspawn work without terminal
-
* hw watchdog: optionally try to use the preset watchdog timeout instead of always overriding it
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54712
* make timer units go away after they elapsed
* http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2012-September/006502.html
+ (network and remote-fs on shutdown)
* come up with a nice way to write queue/read_ahead_kb for a block device without interfering with readahead
* Query Paul Moore about relabelling socket fds while they are open
-* move keymaps to /usr/lib/... rather than /usr/lib/udev/...
-
* journald: check whether it is OK if the client can still modify delivered journal entries
* journal live copy, based on libneon (client) and libmicrohttpd
* system-wide seccomp filter
-* ability to pass fds into systemd
-
* system.conf should have controls for cgroups
* bind mount read-only the cgroup tree higher than nspawn
* systemd-analyze post-boot is broken for initrd
+* systemd-analyze: data collection tools should be lightweight (few dependencies); data analysis tools can be heavyweight
+
* man: clarify that time-sync.target is not only sysv compat but also useful otherwise. Same for similar targets
* .device aliases need to be implemented with the "following" logic, probably.
* journald: we currently rotate only after MaxUse+MaxFilesize has been reached.

- IdleAction=(none|suspend|opportunistic|hibernate|poweroff)
- IdleActionDelay=...
- SessionIdleMode=(explicit|ignore|login)

+* automount: implement expire:
+ - set superblock timeout AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_TIMEOUT_CMD
+ - periodically run AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_EXPIRE_CMD

+ - call umount
+ - answer expire packet on pipe with AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_{READY,FAIL}_CMD
