2 * Re-enable "fsck -l" when it is ready:
3 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=79576#c5
5 * Should systemctl status \* work on all unit types, not just .service?
7 * Dangling symlinks of .automount unit files in .wants/ directories, set up
8 automount points even when the original .automount file did not exist
9 anymore. Only the .mount unit was still around.
11 * properly handle .mount unit state tracking when two mount points are stacked one on top of another on the exact same mount point.
14 * Fedora: add an rpmlint check that verifies that all unit files in the RPM are listed in %systemd_post macros.
16 * Fedora: post FPC ticket to move add %tmpfiles_create to the packaging guidelines
18 * Fedora: move kernel image to /usr/lib/modules/, kernel-install will take care of populating /boot
20 * Fedora: remove /etc/resolv.conf tmpfiles hack
24 * maybe add "systemctl edit" that copies unit files from /usr/lib/systemd/system to /etc/systemd/system and invokes vim on them
26 * dbus: add new message hdr field for allowing interactive auth, write spec for it. update dbus spec to mandate that unknown flags *must* be ignored...
28 * maybe introduce AssertXYZ= similar to ConditionXYZ= that causes a unit to fail (instead of skipping it) if some condition is not true...
30 * remove multi-seat-x now
32 * refcounting in sd-resolve is borked
34 * exponential backoff in timesyncd and resolved when we cannot reach a server
36 * apply start timeout during the "initializing" manager state only,
37 instead of both "initializing" and "starting". maybe rename the
38 timeout to "initialization-timeout" then or so?
40 * journald: make use of uid-range.h to managed uid ranges to split
43 * tmpfiles: port to unquote_many_words(), similar to sysusers
45 * unquote_many_words() should probably be used by a lot of code that
46 currently uses FOREACH_WORD and friends. For example, most conf
47 parsing callbacks should use it.
49 * logind: make the Suspend()/Hibernate() bus calls wait for the for
50 the job to be completed. before returning, so that clients can wait
51 for "systemctl suspend" to finish to know when the suspending is
54 * merge ~/.local/share and ~/.local/lib into one similar /usr/lib and /usr/share....
56 * remove readahead in 217
58 * journald: allows specification of UID range for splitting up journal files
60 * systemd.show_status= should probably have a mode where only failed
64 - add LLDP client side support
65 - ipv4ll with multiple interfaces doesn't work when both dhcp and
66 ipv4ll is used. for some reasons the kernel will currently pick an
67 ipv4ll source address to reach non-ipv4ll gateways.
68 - dhcp and ipv4ll should probably be skipped for "lo" devices, even
69 if the user has a catchall .network file installed, that might
70 theoretically match it.
71 - the DHCP lease data (such as NTP/DNS) is still made available when
72 a carrier is lost on a link. It should be removed instantly.
73 - .network setting that allows overriding of the hostname to send to the dhcp server
74 http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2014-July/021550.html
75 - expose in the API the following bits:
76 - option 15, domain name and/or option 119, search list
77 - option 12, host name and/or option 81, fqdn
78 - option 100, 101, timezone
79 - option 123, 144, geolocation
80 - option 252, configure http proxy (PAC/wpad)
81 - networkd's dhcp server should transparently pass on the DNS and
82 NTP server list it got from user configuration and its dhcp client
83 to clients. It should also pass on its own timezone information.
84 - provide a way to define a per-network interface default metric value
85 for all routes to it. possibly a second default for DHCP routes.
88 - put networkd events and rtnl events at a higher priority, so that
89 we always process them before we process client requests
91 - use base64 for key presentation?
92 - add display of private key types (http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4034#appendix-A.1.1)?
93 - add nice formatting of DNS timestamps
98 - DNS-SD service registration from socket units
103 * Ignore .busname units on classic D-Bus boots, systemd-resolved cannot be started on kdbus
104 without the active policy and should get a Wants=org.freedesktop.resolve1.busname to
107 * Allow multiple ExecStart= for all Type= settings, so that we can cover rescue.service nicely
109 * Add a new verb "systemctl top"
111 * logind: allow users to kill or lock their own sessions
113 * add new gpt type for btrfs volumes
115 * support empty /etc boots nicely:
116 - nspawn/gpt-generator: introduce new gpt partition type for /usr
117 - fstab-generator: support systemd.volatile=yes|no|state on the kernel cmdline, too, similar to nspawn's --volatile=
118 - fstab-generator: add support for usr= in addition to root= on the kernel cmdline
120 * generator that automatically discovers btrfs subvolumes, identifies their purpose based on some xattr on them.
122 * support setting empty environment variables with Environment= and EnvironmentFile=
124 * timer units: actually add extra delays to timer units with high AccuracySec values, don't start them already when we are awake...
126 * a way for container managers to turn off getty starting via $container_headless= or so...
128 * figure out a nice way how we can let the admin know what child/sibling unit causes cgroup membership for a specific unit
130 * journalctl: add the ability to look for the most recent process of a binary. journalctl /usr/bin/X11 --pid=-1 or so...
132 * set NOTIFY_SOCKET also for control processes
134 * mount_cgroup_controllers(): symlinks need to get the label applied
136 * For timer units: add some mechanisms so that timer units that trigger immediately on boot do not have the services
137 they run added to the initial transaction and thus confuse Type=idle.
139 * Run most system services with cgroupfs read-only and procfs with a more secure mode (doesn't work, since the hidepid= option is per-pid-namespace, not per-mount)
141 * sd-event: generate a failure of a default event loop is executed out-of-thread
143 * expose "Locked" property on logind sesison objects
145 * add bus api to query unit file's X fields.
147 * consider adding RuntimeDirectoryUser= + RuntimeDirectoryGroup=
149 * sd-event: define more intervals where we will shift wakeup intervals around in, 1h, 6h, 24h, ...
151 * gpt-auto-generator:
152 - Support LUKS for root devices
153 - Define new partition type for encrypted swap? Support probed LUKS for encrypted swap?
154 - Make /home automount rather than mount?
156 * improve journalctl performance by loading journal files
157 lazily. Encode just enough information in the file name, so that we
158 do not have to open it to know that it is not interesting for us, for
159 the most common operations.
161 * add generator that pulls in systemd-network from containers when
162 CAP_NET_ADMIN is set, more than the loopback device is defined, even
163 when it is otherwise off
165 * MessageQueueMessageSize= and RLimitFSIZE= (and suchlike) should use parse_iec_size().
167 * "busctl status" works only as root on dbus1, since we cannot read
170 * implement Distribute= in socket units to allow running multiple
171 service instances processing the listening socket, and open this up
174 * socket units: support creating sockets in different namespace,
175 opening it up for JoinsNamespaceOf=. This would require to fork off
176 a tiny process that joins the namespace and creates/binds the socket
177 and passes this back to PID1 via SCM_RIGHTS. This also could be used
178 to allow Chown/chgrp on sockets without requiring NSS in PID 1.
180 * New service property: maximum CPU and wallclock runtime for a service
182 * introduce bus call FreezeUnit(s, b), as well as "systemctl freeze
183 $UNIT" and "systemctl thaw $UNIT" as wrappers around this. The calls
184 should SIGSTOP all unit processes in a loop until all processes of
185 it are fully stopped. This can later be used for app management by
186 desktop UIs such as gnome-shell to freeze apps that are not visible
187 on screen, not unlike how job control works on the shell
190 - manager property enumeration was broken when systemd moved to /usr/lib/
193 - implement per-slice CPUFairScheduling=1 switch
194 - handle jointly mounted controllers correctly
195 - introduce high-level settings for RT budget, swappiness
196 - how to reset dynamically changed unit cgroup attributes sanely?
197 - when reloading configuration, apply new cgroup configuration
198 - when recursively showing the cgroup hierarchy, optionally also show
199 the hierarchies of child processes
202 - allow creating auxiliary units with the same call
203 - add field to transient units that indicate whether systemd or somebody else saves/restores its settings, for integration with libvirt
204 - ensure scope units may be started only a single time
206 * Automatically configure swap partition to use for hibernation by looking for largest swap partition on the root disk?
208 * when we detect low battery and no AC on boot, show pretty splash and refuse boot
210 * machined, localed: when we try to kill an empty cgroup, generate an ESRCH error over the bus
212 * libsystemd-journal, libsystemd-login, libudev: add calls to easily attach these objects to sd-event event loops
214 * be more careful what we export on the bus as (usec_t) 0 and (usec_t) -1
216 * unify dispatch table in systemctl_main() and friends
218 * rfkill,backlight: we probably should run the load tools inside of the udev rules so that the state is properly initialized by the time other software sees it
220 * After coming back from hibernation reset hibernation swap partition using the /dev/snapshot ioctl APIs
222 * If we try to find a unit via a dangling symlink, generate a clean
223 error. Currently, we just ignore it and read the unit from the search
226 * refuse boot if /etc/os-release is missing or /etc/machine-id cannot be set up
228 * given that logind now lets PID 1 do all nasty work, we can
229 probably reduce the capability set it retains substantially.
230 (we need CAP_SYS_ADMIN for drmSetMaster(), so maybe not worth it)
232 * btrfs raid assembly: some .device jobs stay stuck in the queue
234 * make sure gdm does not use multi-user-x but the new default X configuration file, and then remove multi-user-x from systemd
236 * man: the documentation of Restart= currently is very misleading and suggests the tools from ExecStartPre= might get restarted.
238 * load .d/*.conf dropins for device units
240 * allow implementation of InaccessibleDirectories=/ plus
241 ReadOnlyDirectories=... for whitelisting files for a service.
244 - when kdbus does not take our message without memfds, try again with memfds
245 - systemd-bus-proxyd needs to enforce good old XML policy
246 - allow updating attach flags during runtime
247 - pid1: peek into activating message when activating a service
248 - introduce sd_bus_emit_object_added()/sd_bus_emit_object_removed() that automatically includes the build-in interfaces in the list
249 - port to sd-resolve for connecting to TCP dbus servers
250 - see if we can drop more message validation on the sending side
251 - add API to clone sd_bus_message objects
252 - make AddMatch calls on dbus1 transports async?
253 - kdbus: matches against source or destination pids for an "strace -p"-like feel. Problem: The PID info needs to be available in userspace too...
254 - longer term: priority inheritance
257 - NameLost/NameAcquired obsolete
259 - "const" properties (posted)
261 - update systemd.special(7) to mention that dbus.socket is only about the compatibility socket now
262 - test bloom filter generation indexes
265 - allow multiple signal handlers per signal?
267 * in the final killing spree, detect processes from the root directory, and
268 complain loudly if they have argv[0][0] == '@' set.
269 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=961044
271 * investigate endianness issues of UUID vs. GUID
273 * dbus: when a unit failed to load (i.e. is in UNIT_ERROR state), we
274 should be able to safely try another attempt when the bus call LoadUnit() is invoked.
276 * add a pam module that passes the hdd passphrase into the PAM stack and then expires it, for usage by gdm auto-login.
278 * add a pam module that on password changes updates any LUKS slot where the password matches
280 * maybe add a generator that looks for "systemd.run=" on the kernel cmdline for container usercases...
282 * timedatectl: print a nicer message when enabling ntp fails because ntpd/chrony are not installed
284 * cgtop: make cgtop useful in a container
287 - add 'set -e' to scripts in test/
288 - make stuff in test/ work with separate output dir
290 * seems that when we follow symlinks to units we prefer the symlink
291 destination path over /etc and /usr. We should not do that. Instead
292 /etc should always override /run+/usr and also any symlink
295 * when isolating, try to figure out a way how we implicitly can order
296 all units we stop before the isolating unit...
298 * teach ConditionKernelCommandLine= globs or regexes (in order to match foobar={no,0,off})
300 * after all byte-wise realloc() is slow, even on glibc, so i guess we
301 need manual exponential loops after all
303 * BootLoaderSpec: Clarify that the kernel has to be in $BOOT. Clarify
304 that the boot loader should be installed to the ESP. Define a way
305 how an installer can figure out whether a BLS compliant boot loader
308 * think about requeuing jobs when daemon-reload is issued? usecase:
309 the initrd issues a reload after fstab from the host is accessible
310 and we might want to requeue the mounts local-fs acquired through
313 * systemd-inhibit: make taking delay locks useful: support sending SIGINT or SIGTERM on PrepareForSleep()
315 * journal-or-kmsg is currently broken? See reverted commit 4a01181e460686d8b4a543b1dfa7f77c9e3c5ab8.
317 * remove any syslog support from log.c -- we probably cannot do this before split-off udev is gone for good
319 * shutdown logging: store to EFI var, and store to USB stick?
321 * write UI tool that pops up emergency messages from the journal as notification
323 * think about window-manager-run-as-user-service problem: exit 0 → activate shutdown.target; exit != 0 → restart service
325 * use "log level" rather than "log priority" everywhere
327 * merge unit_kill_common() and unit_kill_context()
329 * introduce ExecCondition= in services
332 - honor language efi variables for default language selection (if there are any?)
333 - honor timezone efi variables for default timezone selection (if there are any?)
334 - change bootctl to be backed by systemd-bootd to control temporary and persistent default boot goal plus efi variables
336 * maybe do not install getty@tty1.service symlink in /etc but in /usr?
338 * re-enable "make check" for gtk-doc (broken for unknown reason)
340 * fstab: add new mount option x-systemd-after=/foobar/waldo to allow manual dependencies to other mount points
341 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=812826
343 * print a nicer explanation if people use variable/specifier expansion in ExecStart= for the first word
345 * mount: turn dependency information from /proc/self/mountinfo into dependency information between systemd units.
348 - logind: optionally, ignore idle-hint logic for autosuspend, block suspend as long as a session is around
349 - When we update the kernel all kind of hibernation should be prohibited until shutdown/reboot
350 - logind: wakelock/opportunistic suspend support
351 - Add pretty name for seats in logind
352 - logind: allow showing logout dialog from system?
353 - we should probably handle SIGTERM/SIGINT to not leave dot files around, just in case
354 - session scopes/user unit: add RequiresMountsFor for the home directory of the user
355 - add Suspend() bus calls which take timestamps to fix double suspend issues when somebody hits suspend and closes laptop quickly.
356 - if pam_systemd is invoked by su from a process that is outside of a
357 any session we should probably just become a NOP, since that's
358 usually not a real user session but just some system code that just
361 * exec: when deinitializating a tty device fix the perms and group, too, not only when initializing. Set access mode/gid to 0620/tty.
363 * service: watchdog logic: for testing purposes allow ping, but do not require pong
366 - import and delete pstore filesystem content at startup
367 - journald: also get thread ID from client, plus thread name
368 - journal: when waiting for journal additions in the client always sleep at least 1s or so, in order to minimize wakeups
369 - add API to close/reopen/get fd for journal client fd in libsystemd-journal.
370 - fallback to /dev/log based logging in libsystemd-journal, if we cannot log natively?
371 - declare the local journal protocol stable in the wiki interface chart
372 - journal: reuse XZ context
373 - sd-journal: speed up sd_journal_get_data() with transparent hash table in bg
374 - journald: when dropping msgs due to ratelimit make sure to write
375 "dropped %u messages" not only when we are about to print the next
376 message that works, but alraedy after a short tiemout
377 - check if we can make journalctl by default use --follow mode inside of less if called without args?
378 - maybe add API to send pairs of iovecs via sd_journal_send
379 - journal: when writing journal auto-rotate if time jumps backwards
380 - journal: add a setgid "systemd-journal" utility to invoke from libsystemd-journal, which passes fds via STDOUT and does PK access
381 - journactl: support negative filtering, i.e. FOOBAR!="waldo",
382 and !FOOBAR for events without FOOBAR.
383 - journal: send out marker messages every now and then, and immediately sync with fdatasync() afterwards, in order to have hourly guaranteed syncs.
384 - 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.
385 - journal: find a way to allow dropping history early, based on priority, other rules
386 - journal: When used on NFS, check payload hashes
387 - journald: check whether it is OK if the client can still modify delivered journal entries
388 - journal live copy, based on libneon (client) and libmicrohttpd (server)
389 - journald: add kernel cmdline option to disable ratelimiting for debug purposes
390 - refuse taking lower-case variable names in sd_journal_send() and friends.
391 - journald: we currently rotate only after MaxUse+MaxFilesize has been reached.
392 - journal: deal nicely with byte-by-byte copied files, especially regards header
393 - journal: store euid in journal if it differs from uid
394 - journal: sanely deal with entries which are larger than the individual file size, but where the components would fit
395 - Replace utmp, wtmp, btmp, and lastlog completely with journal
396 - journalctl: instead --after-cursor= maybe have a --cursor=XYZ+1 syntax?
397 - tmpfiles: when applying ownership to /run/log/journal, also do this for the journal fails contained in it
398 - when a kernel driver logs in a tight loop, we should ratelimit that too.
399 - journald: optionally, log debug messages to /run but everything else to /var
400 - journald: when we drop syslog messages because the syslog socket is
401 full, make sure to write how many messages are lost as first thing
402 to syslog when it works again.
403 - journald: make sure ratelimit is actually really per-service with the new cgroup changes
404 - change systemd-journal-flush into a service that stays around during
405 boot, and causes the journal to be moved back to /run on shutdown,
406 so that we do not keep /var busy. This needs to happen synchronously,
407 hence doing this via signals is not going to work.
410 - document that deps in [Unit] sections ignore Alias= fields in
411 [Install] units of other units, unless those units are disabled
412 - man: clarify that time-sync.target is not only sysv compat but also useful otherwise. Same for similar targets
413 - document the exit codes when services fail before they are exec()ed
414 - document that service reload may be implemented as service reexec
415 - document in wiki how to map ical recurrence events to systemd timer unit calendar specifications
416 - add a man page containing packaging guidelines and recommending usage of things like Documentation=, PrivateTmp=, PrivateNetwork= and ReadOnlyDirectories=/etc /usr.
417 - document systemd-journal-flush.service properly
418 - documentation: recommend to connect the timer units of a service to the service via Also= in [Install]
419 - man: document the very specific env the shutdown drop-in tools live in
420 - man: extend runlevel(8) to mention that runlevels suck, and are dead. Maybe add runlevel(7) with a note about that too
421 - man: add more examples to man pages
422 - man: maybe sort directives in man pages, and take sections from --help and apply them to man too
425 - systemctl list-jobs - show dependencies
426 - add systemctl switch to dump transaction without executing it
427 - Add a verbose mode to "systemctl start" and friends that explains what is being done or not done
428 - "systemctl disable" on a static unit prints no message and does
429 nothing. "systemctl enable" does nothing, and gives a bad message
430 about it. Should fix both to print nice actionable messages.
431 - print nice message from systemctl --failed if there are no entries shown, and hook that into ExecStartPre of rescue.service/emergency.service
432 - add new command to systemctl: "systemctl system-reexec" which reexecs as many daemons as virtually possible
433 - systemctl enable: fail if target to alias into does not exist? maybe show how many units are enabled afterwards?
434 - systemctl: "Journal has been rotated since unit was started." message is misleading
435 - support "systemctl stop foobar@.service" to stop all units matching a certain template
436 - Something is wrong with symlink handling of "autovt@.service" in "systemctl list-unit-files"
437 - better error message if you run systemctl without systemd running
438 - systemctl status output should should include list of triggering units and their status
441 - "systemctl mask" should find all names by which a unit is accessible
442 (i.e. by scanning for symlinks to it) and link them all to /dev/null
443 - systemctl list-unit-files should list generated files (and probably with a new state "generated" for them, or so)
444 - systemctl: maybe add "systemctl add-wants" or so...
447 - timer units should get the ability to trigger when:
448 o CLOCK_REALTIME makes jumps (TFD_TIMER_CANCEL_ON_SET)
450 - Support 2012-02~4 as syntax for specifying the fourth to last day of the month.
451 - calendarspec: support value ranges with ".." notation. Example: 2013-4..8-1
452 - when parsing calendar timestamps support the UTC timezone (even if we will not support arbitrary timezone specs, support UTC itself certainly makes sense), also support syntaxes such as +0200
453 - Modulate timer frequency based on battery state
455 * update the kernel's TZ (sys_tz) when DST changes
457 * sync down the system time to the RTC when:
458 - CLOCK_REALTIME makes jumps (the user explicitely requested a time set)
459 - DST/timezone changes && ntp is active && RTC-in-localtime (never do it without ntp)
460 This takes care of syncing ntpdate updates to the RTC, and DST updates for localtime
461 mode, it will never touch the RTC if the no reliable time source is active or the
462 user did not request anything like it.
464 * add libsystemd-password or so to query passwords during boot using the password agent logic
466 * 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().
468 * fedup: add --unit to systemctl switch-root somehow
469 * fedup: do not delete initrd on switch-root
472 * clean up date formatting and parsing so that all absolute/relative timestamps we format can also be parsed
474 * on shutdown: move utmp, wall, audit logic all into PID 1 (or logind?), get rid of systemd-update-utmp-runlevel
476 * make repeated alt-ctrl-del presses printing a dump, or even force a reboot without
477 waiting for the timeout
479 * hostnamed: before returning information from /etc/machine-info.conf check the modification data and reread. Similar for localed, ...
481 * currently x-systemd.timeout is lost in the initrd, since crypttab is copied into dracut, but fstab is not
484 - bind mount read-only the cgroup tree higher than nspawn
485 - refuses to boot containers without /etc/machine-id (OK?), and with empty /etc/machine-id (not OK).
486 - support taking a btrfs snapshot at startup and dropping it afterwards
489 - cryptsetup-generator: allow specification of passwords in crypttab itself
490 - move cryptsetup key caching into kernel keyctl?
491 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54982
492 - support rd.luks.allow-discards= kernel cmdline params in cryptsetup generator
494 * hw watchdog: optionally try to use the preset watchdog timeout instead of always overriding it
495 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54712
497 * after deserializing sockets in socket.c we should reapply sockopts and things
499 * make timer units go away after they elapsed
501 * come up with a nice way to write queue/read_ahead_kb for a block device without interfering with readahead
503 * move PID 1 segfaults to /var/lib/systemd/coredump?
505 * create /sbin/init symlinks from the build system
507 * allow writing multiple conditions in unit files on one line
509 * MountFlags=shared acts as MountFlags=slave right now.
511 * drop PID 1 reloading, only do reexecing (difficult: Reload()
512 currently is properly synchronous, Reexec() is weird, because we
513 cannot delay the response properly until we are back, so instead of
514 being properly synchronous we just keep open the fd and close it
515 when done. That means clients do not get a successful method reply,
516 but much rather a disconnect on success.
518 * properly handle loop back mounts via fstab, especially regards to fsck/passno
520 * initialize the hostname from the fs label of /, if /etc/hostname does not exist?
522 * rename "userspace" to "core-os"
524 * load-fragment: when loading a unit file via a chain of symlinks
525 verify that it is not masked via any of the names traversed.
527 * introduce Type=pid-file
529 * change Requires=basic.target to RequisiteOverride=basic.target
531 * when breaking cycles drop sysv services first, then services from /run, then from /etc, then from /usr
533 * automount: implement expire:
534 - set superblock timeout AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_TIMEOUT_CMD
535 - periodically run AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_EXPIRE_CMD
536 - every timeout/4 (original autofs logic)
537 - blocking, needs a thread
539 - receive expire packet on pipe if kernel tells the timeout is over
541 - answer expire packet on pipe with AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_{READY,FAIL}_CMD
542 - AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_EXPIRE_CMD returns
544 * ExecOnFailure=/usr/bin/foo
549 - add trigger --subsystem-match=usb/usb_device device
550 - reimport udev db after MOVE events for devices without dev_t
552 * 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
554 * introduce mix of BindTo and Requisite
556 * There's currently no way to cancel fsck (used to be possible via C-c or c on the console)
558 * add option to sockets to avoid activation. Instead just drop packets/connections, see http://cyberelk.net/tim/2012/02/15/portreserve-systemd-solution/
560 * default unix qlen is too small (10). bump sysctl? add sockopt?
562 * save coredump in Windows/Mozilla minidump format
564 * support crash reporting operation modes (https://live.gnome.org/GnomeOS/Design/Whiteboards/ProblemReporting)
566 * default to actual 32-bit PIDs, via /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max
568 * be able to specify a forced restart of service A where service B depends on, in case B
569 needs to be auto-respawned?
571 * when a bus name of a service disappears from the bus make sure to queue further activation requests
574 - apply "x" on "D" too (see patch from William Douglas)
576 * for services: do not set $HOME in services unless requested
578 * hide PAM options in fragment parser when compile time disabled
580 * when we automatically restart a service, ensure we restart its rdeps, too.
582 * allow Type=simple with PIDFile=
583 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=723942
585 * move PAM code into its own binary
587 * implement Register= switch in .socket units to enable registration
588 in Avahi, RPC and other socket registration services.
590 * make sure systemd-ask-password-wall does not shutdown systemd-ask-password-console too early
592 * add ReloadSignal= for configuring a reload signal to use
594 * verify that the AF_UNIX sockets of a service in the fs still exist
595 when we start a service in order to avoid confusion when a user
596 assumes starting a service is enough to make it accessible
598 * Make it possible to set the keymap independently from the font on
599 the kernel cmdline. Right now setting one resets also the other.
601 * and a dbus call to generate target from current state
604 - drop /.readahead on bigger upgrades with yum
605 - move readahead files into /var (look for them with .path units?)
606 - readahead: use BTRFS_IOC_DEFRAG_RANGE instead of BTRFS_IOC_DEFRAG ioctl, with START_IO
607 - readahead: when bumping /sys readahead variable save mtime and compare later to detect changes
608 - readahead: make use of EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT, as used by http://e4rat.sourceforge.net/
610 * GC unreferenced jobs (such as .device jobs)
612 * write blog stories about:
613 - hwdb: what belongs into it, lsusb
614 - enabling dbus services
616 - how to make changes to sysctl and sysfs attributes
618 - how to pass throw-away units to systemd, or dynamically change properties of existing units
619 - how to integrate cgconfig and suchlike with systemd
620 - testing with Harald's awesome test kit
622 - how to develop against journal browsing APIs
623 - the journal HTTP iface
624 - non-cgroup resource management
625 - dynamic resource management with cgroups
626 - refreshed, longer missions statement
627 - calendar time events
628 - init=/bin/sh vs. "emergency" mode, vs. "rescue" mode, vs. "multi-user" mode, vs. "graphical" mode, and the debug shell
629 - how to create your own target
630 - instantiated apache, dovecot and so on
631 - hooking a script into various stages of shutdown/rearly booot
633 * allow port=0 in .socket units
635 * recreate systemd's D-Bus private socket file on SIGUSR2
637 * Support --test based on current system state
639 * investigate whether the gnome pty helper should be moved into systemd, to provide cgroup support.
641 * maybe introduce ExecRestartPre=
643 * dot output for --test showing the 'initial transaction'
645 * fingerprint.target, wireless.target, gps.target, netdevice.target
647 * drop cap bounding set in readahead and other services
650 - figure out a simple way to wait for journal events in a way that
652 - add documentation to systemd.daemon
655 - plot per-process IO utilization
656 - group processes based on service association (cgroups)
657 - document initcall_debug
658 - kernel cmdline "bootchart" option for simplicity?
661 - Make sure ID_PATH is always exported and complete for
662 network devices where possible, so we can safely rely
664 - check MTUBytes parsing (expecting size_t but we are using unsigned)
667 - add support for more attribute types
668 - inbuilt piping support (essentially degenerate async)? see loopback-setup.c and other places
671 - add more keys to [Route] and [Address] sections
672 - add support for more DHCPv4 options (and, longer term, other kinds of dynamic config)
673 - add proper initrd support (in particular generate .network/.link files based on /proc/cmdline)
674 - add reduced [Link] support to .network files
675 - add Scope= parsing option for [Network]
676 - properly handle routerless dhcp leases
677 - add more attribute support for SIT tunnel
678 - work with non-ethernet devices
679 - add support for more bond options
681 * networkd-wait-online:
682 - make operstates to wait for configurable?
685 - figure out how much we can increase Maximum Message Size
686 - export timezone information
687 - support RFC4702 (pass FQDN)
690 - add functions to set previously stored IPv6 addresses on startup and get
691 them at shutdown; store them in client->ia_na
692 - write more test cases
693 - implement and do duplicate address detection, see rfc 4862, 5.4.
694 - implement reconfigure support, see 5.3., 15.11. and 22.20.
695 - implement information request, see 1.2. and 18.1.5.
696 - implement support for temporary adressess (IA_TA)
697 - implement elapsed time option
698 - implement dhcpv6 authentication
699 - investigate the usefulness of Confirm messages; i.e. are there any
700 situations where the link changes without any loss in carrier detection
702 - some servers don't do rapid commit without a filled in IA_NA, verify
708 - natively watch for dbus-*.service symlinks (PENDING)
709 - teach dbus to activate all services it finds in /etc/systemd/services/org-*.service
711 * fix alsa mixer restore to not print error when no config is stored
713 * make cryptsetup lower --iter-time
715 * patch kernel for xattr support in /dev, /proc/, /sys?
717 * kernel: add device_type = "fb", "fbcon" to class "graphics"
719 * drop accountsservice's StandardOutput=syslog and Type=dbus fields
721 * dbus upstream still refers to dbus.target and should not
723 * dbus: in fedora, make /var/lib/dbus/machine-id a symlink to /etc/machine-id
725 * add "# export SYSTEMD_PAGER=" to bash login
727 * /usr/bin/service should actually show the new command line
729 * fedora: suggest auto-restart on failure, but not on success and not on coredump. also, ask people to think about changing the start limit logic. Also point people to RestartPreventExitStatus=, SuccessExitStatus=
731 * fedora: F20: go timer units all the way, leave cron.daily for cron
733 * neither pkexec nor sudo initialize environ[] from the PAM environment?
735 * fedora: update policy to declare access mode and ownership of unit files to root:root 0644, and add an rpmlint check for it
737 * register catalog database signature as file magic
739 * zsh shell completion: <command> <verb> -<TAB> should complete options, but currently
744 * look for close() vs. close_nointr() vs. close_nointr_nofail()
746 * check for strerror(r) instead of strerror(-r)
748 * Use PR_SET_PROCTITLE_AREA if it becomes available in the kernel
752 * set_put(), hashmap_put() return values check. i.e. == 0 does not free()!
754 * use secure_getenv() instead of getenv() where appropriate
756 * link up selected blog stories from man pages and unit files Documentation= fields
758 Scheduled for removal or fixing:
760 * xxxOverridable dependencies (probably: fix)
