4 * make anaconda write timeout=0 for encrypted devices
6 * make sure timeouts are applied to Type=oneshot services.
8 * Dangling symlinks of .automount unit files in .wants/ directories, set up
9 automount points even when the original .automount file did not exist
10 anymore. Only the .mount unit was still around.
12 * make polkit checks async
14 * properly handle .mount unit state tracking when two mount points are stacked one on top of another on the exact same mount point.
18 * cg_create_and_attach() should fail for non-available controllers
20 * udev: remove /sys and /dev configurability
22 * udev: find a way to tell udev to not cancel firmware requests when running in initramfs
24 * udev: scsi_id -> sg3_utils -> kill scsi_id
26 * udev: add trigger --subsystem-match=usb/usb_device device
29 - use symbol versioning
30 - remove deprecated symbols
31 - return object with *_unref()
32 - kill: udev_monitor_from_socket()
33 - kill: udev_queue_get_failed_list_entry()
35 * allow configuration of console width/height in vconsole.conf
37 * PrivateTmp should apply to both /tmp and /var/tmp
39 * fstab should take priority over units in /usr
41 * cleanup syslog 'priority' vs. 'level' wording
43 * journal: if mmap() fails for mapping window try to unmap a a few older maps
45 * dbus upstream still refers to dbus.target and shouldn't
47 * 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
49 * add man page documenting all kernel cmdline options, including stuff like fsck.mode=
51 * show getty in container mode, not sulogin
53 * support container_ttys=
55 * journald: make configurable "store-on-var", "store-on-run", "dont-store", "auto"
56 (store-persistent, store-volatile?)
58 * Add ConditionReadWriteFileSystem= so that systemd-sysctl doesn't get executed when /proc/sys is read-only
60 * introduce mix of BindTo and Requisite
62 * journalctl: show multiline log messages sanely, expand tabs, and show all valid utf8 messages
64 * introduce NeedsMounts= or so to create .mount dependencies automatically for a specific path
66 * add DeleteSocketsOnStop=yes|no option to socket units
68 * add shutdown inhibit API for usage by libvirt and friends

74 * document crypttab(5)
76 * There's currently no way to cancel fsck (used to be possible via C-c or c on the console)
78 * when dumping cgroup contents, include main/control PID of a service, explicitly
80 * keep an eye on https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=670100
82 * D-Bus: always pass cred data along each message
84 * journal: allow turning off logging entirely
86 * journal: sanely deal with entries which are larger than the individual file size, but where the componets would fit
88 * add command to systemctl to plot dependency graph as tree (see rhbz 795365)
90 * make logind reserve tty10 or so for text logins, so that gdm never picks it up
92 * add option to sockets to avoid activation. Instead just drop packets/connections, see http://cyberelk.net/tim/2012/02/15/portreserve-systemd-solution/
94 * default unix qlen is too small (10). bump sysctl? add sockopt?
96 * support units generated by a generator and placed in /run/systemd/system/; the directory is
97 currently ignored because it is empty before the generatores are executed
99 * Possibly, detect whether SysV init scripts can do reloading by looking for "echo Usage:" lines
101 * figure out whether we should leave dbus around during shutdown
103 * add interface to allow immediate rotation of the journal, and even flushing.
105 * dbus: in fedora, make the machine a symlink to /etc/machine-id

125 * journal: message catalog
127 * journal: forward-secure signatures
129 * document the exit codes when services fail before they are exec()ed
131 * rework namespace support, don't use pivot_root, and mount things after creating the namespace, not before
133 * systemctl journal command
135 * journalctl: --cursor support, priority filtering
137 * systemctl status: show coredumps
139 * systemctl status: show whether journal was rotated since service started
141 * save coredump in Windows/Mozilla minidump format
143 * support crash reporting operation modes (https://live.gnome.org/GnomeOS/Design/Whiteboards/ProblemReporting)
145 * journal: allow per-entry control on /var vs. /run (think incognito browser mode)
147 * clean up session cgroups that remain after logout (think sshd), but eventually run empty
149 * support "systemctl stop foobar@.service" to stop all units matching a certain template
153 * logind: allow showing logout dialog from system
155 * document that %% can be used to write % in a string that is specifier extended
157 * when an instanced service exits, remove its parent cgroup too if possible.
159 * as Tom Gundersen pointed out there's a always a dep loop if people use crypto file systems with random keys
161 * automatically escape unit names passed on the service (i.e. think "systemctl start serial-getty.service@serial/by-path/jshdfjsdfhkjh" being automatically escaped as necessary.
163 * if we can not get user quota for tmpfs, mount a separate tmpfs instance
164 for every user in /run/user/$USER with a configured maximum size
166 * default to actual 32bit PIDs, via /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max
168 * add an option to make mounts private/shareable and so on, enable this for root by default
170 * be able to specify a forced restart of service A where service B depends on, in case B
171 needs to be auto-respawned?
173 * Something is wrong with symlink handling of "autovt@.service" in "systemctl list-unit-files"
175 * when a bus name of a service disappears from the bus make sure to queue further activation requests
177 * something like ConditionExec= or ExecStartPre= without failure state
179 * tmpfiles: apply "x" on "D" too (see patch from William Douglas)
181 * don't set $HOME in services unless requested
183 * hide PAM/TCPWrap options in fragment parser when compile time disabled
185 * when we automatically restart a service, ensure we restart its rdeps, too.
187 * allow Type=simple with PIDFile=
188 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=723942
190 * move PAM code into its own binary
192 * warn if the user stops a service but not its associated socket
194 * logind: spawn user@..service on login
196 * logind: non-local X11 server handling
198 * implement Register= switch in .socket units to enable registration
199 in Avahi, RPC and other socket registration services.
201 * make sure systemd-ask-password-wall does not shutdown systemd-ask-password-console too early
203 * readahead: use BTRFS_IOC_DEFRAG_RANGE instead of BTRFS_IOC_DEFRAG ioctl, with START_IO
205 * readahead: check whether a btrfs volume includes ssd by checking mount flag "ssd"
207 * support sd_notify() style notification when reload begins (RELOADING=1), reload is finished (READY=1), and add ReloadSignal= then to use in combination
209 * support sd_notify() style notification when shutting down, to make auto-exit bus services work (STOPPING=1)
211 * verify that the AF_UNIX sockets of a service in the fs still exist
212 when we start a service in order to avoid confusion when a user
213 assumes starting a service is enough to make it accessible
215 * Make it possible to set the keymap independently from the font on
216 the kernel cmdline. Right now setting one resets also the other.
218 * move nss-myhostname into systemd
220 * and a dbus call to generate target from current state
222 * drop /.readahead on bigger upgrades with yum
224 * add inode nr check to readahead to suppress preloading changed files
226 * add support for /bin/mount -s
228 * GC unreferenced jobs (such as .device jobs)
230 * when failing to start a service due to ratelimiting, try again later, if restart=always is set
232 * write blog stories about:
233 - enabling dbus services
235 - how to make changes to sysctl and sysfs attributes
237 - how to pass throw-away units to systemd, or dynamically change properties of existing units
238 - how to integrate cgconfig and suchlike with systemd
239 - resource control in systemd
241 * allow port=0 in .socket units
243 * move readahead files into /var, look for them with .path units
245 * teach dbus to activate all services it finds in /etc/systemd/services/org-*.service
247 * support systemd.mask= on the kernel command line.
249 * when key file cannot be found, read it from kbd in cryptsetup
251 * reuse mkdtemp namespace dirs in /tmp?
253 * recreate systemd's D-Bus private socket file on SIGUSR2
255 * Support --test based on current system state
257 * investigate whether the gnome pty helper should be moved into systemd, to provide cgroup support.
259 * maybe introduce ExecRestartPre=
261 * configurable jitter for timer events
263 * timer events with system resume
265 * timer events on calendar time
267 * dot output for --test showing the 'initial transaction'
269 * calendar time support in timer, iCalendar semantics for the timer stuff (RFC2445)

272 * implicitly import "defaults" settings file into all types
273 * exec settings override
274 * writable cgroups dbus properties for live changes
276 * read config fragments for all units from /lib/systemd/system/foobar.service.d/ to override/extend specific settings
278 * port over to LISTEN_FDS/LISTEN_PID:
279 - rpcbind (/var/run/rpcbind.sock!) HAVEPATCH
283 - libvirtd (/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock-ro)
284 - bluetoothd (/var/run/sdp! @/org/bluez/audio!)
287 * auditd service files
289 * fingerprint.target, wireless.target, gps.target, netdevice.target
291 * io priority during initialization
293 * systemctl list-jobs - show dependencies
295 * add systemctl switch to dump transaction without executing it
297 * suspend, resume support?
299 * drop cap bounding set in readahead and other services
305 - natively watch for dbus-*.service symlinks (PENDING)
306 - allow specification of socket mode/umask when allocating DBusServer
307 - allow disabling of fd passing when connecting a AF_UNIX connection
308 - allow disabling of UID passing for AUTH EXTERNAL
311 PR_SET_CHILD_REAPER patch: https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/7/28/426
312 (patch in linux-next, on the way to the next kernel)
314 * fix alsa mixer restore to not print error when no config is stored
316 * gnome-shell python script/glxinfo/is-accelerated must die
318 * make cryptsetup lower --iter-time
320 * patch kernel for xattr support in /dev, /proc/, /sys and /sys/fs/cgroup?
322 * NTP: the kernel's 11-minutes-mode syncs the system time to the RTC, but only
323 in an ~30 minutes window. It does not adjust larger differences. Find a way
324 to tell the kernel, to always do a full time sync when the RTC is in UTC and
325 we are in 11-minutes-mode. When we trust the system time to NTP we also want
328 * patch kernel for cpu feature modalias for autoloading aes/kvm/...
329 (patches in linux-next, on the way to the next kernel)
331 * kernel: add device_type = "fb", "fbcon" to class "graphics"
335 * look for close() vs. close_nointr() vs. close_nointr_nofail()
337 * check for strerror(r) instead of strerror(-r)
339 * Use PR_SET_PROCTITLE_AREA if it becomes available in the kernel
341 * %m in printf() instead of strerror();
345 * set_put(), hashmap_put() return values check. i.e. == 0 doesn't free()!
