3 * swap units that are activated by one name but shown in the kernel under another are semi-broken
7 * NFS, networkmanager ordering issue (PENDING)
9 * NM should pull in network.target (PENDING)
10 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=692008
12 * bluetooth should be possible to disable (PENDING)
14 * get writev() /dev/kmsg support into the F15 kernel
15 https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/4/6/473
16 patched merged into -mm
18 * make anaconda write timeout=0 for encrypted devices
22 * Make it possible to set the keymap independently from the font on
23 the kernel cmdline. Right now setting one resets also the other.
25 * add dbus call to convert snapshot ino target
27 * make use of TIOCVHANGUP
29 * move /selinux to /sys/fs/selinux
31 * unset cgroup agents on shutdown
33 * add prefix match to sysctl, tmpfiles, ...
35 * Add ConditionPathExists= checks to binfmt automount units, to avoid
36 installing the automount point if the directory does not exist.
38 * drop /.readahead on bigger upgrades with yum
40 * add inode stat() check to readahead to suppress preloading changed files
42 * POSIX mqueue support in .socket units
44 * allow list of pathes in config_parse_condition_path()
46 * introduce dbus calls for enabling/disabling a service
48 * support notifications for services being enabled/disabled
50 * Maybe merge nss-myhostname into systemd?
52 * GC unreferenced jobs (such as .device jobs)
54 * support wildcard expansion in ListenStream= and friends
56 * support wildcard expansion in EnvironmentFile= and friends
58 * avoid DefaultStandardOutput=syslog to have any effect on StandardInput=socket services
60 * fix alsa mixer restore to not print error when no config is stored
62 * show enablement status in systemctl status
64 * write blog stories about:
65 - enabling dbus services
67 - you are a distro: why switch?
68 - /etc/sysconfig and /etc/default
69 - how to write socket activated services
71 * maybe add tiny dbus services similar to hostnamed for locale and wallclock/timezone?
73 * allow port=0 in .socket units
75 * rename systemd-logger to systemd-stdio-syslog-bridge
77 * take BSD file lock on tty devices when using them?
79 * avoid any flag files, or readahead files in /, we need to support r/o /
80 or / on tmpfs like Android setups.
82 * move readahead files into /var, look for them with .path units
84 * teach dbus to activate all services it finds in /etc/systemd/services/org-*.service
86 * get process transport into dbus for systemctl -P/-H
88 * document default dependencies
90 * support systemd.whitelist=/systemd.blacklist= on the kernel command
93 * Find a way to replace /var/run, /var/lock directories with
94 symlinks during an RPM package upgrade (filesystem.rpm or systemd.rpm).
95 (lua code to create symlinks right away for new installations is in filesytem.rpm now)
96 We soon want to get rid of var-run.mount var-lock.mount units:
97 if mountpoint /run ; then
100 mount --move /var/run /run || mount --bind /var/run /run
102 mv /var/run /var/.run.save
104 echo "R /var/.run.save" > /etc/tmpfiles.d/remove-run-save.conf
106 * when key file cannot be found, read it from kbd in cryptsetup
108 * add switch to systemctl to show enabled but not running services. Or
109 another switch that shows service that have been running since
110 booting but aren't running anymore.
112 * reuse mkdtemp namespace dirs in /tmp?
114 * recreate systemd's D-Bus private socket file on SIGUSR2
116 * be more specific what failed:
118 Unmounting file systems.
119 Not all file systems unmounted, 1 left.
121 Detaching loop devices.
122 Detaching DM devices.
123 Cannot finalize remaining file systems and devices, trying to kill remaining processes.
124 Unmounting file systems.
125 Not all file systems unmounted, 1 left.
126 Cannot finalize remaining file systems and devices, giving up.
129 * check for compiled-in, but not active selinux, and don't print any warnings
130 about policy loading. Probably check for available selinux in /proc/filesystems,
131 and check for active selinux with getcon_raw() == "kernel"
133 * Support --test based on current system state
135 * systemctl enable as D-Bus call
137 * consider services with any kind of link in /etc/systemd/system enabled
139 * show failure error string in "systemctl status"
141 * make sure timeouts are applied to Type=oneshot services.
144 systemctl mask <unit>
145 systemctl unmask <unit>
146 Also support --temp to make this temporary by placing mask links in /run.
148 * detect LXC environment
150 * Maybe store in unit files whether a service should be enabled by default on package installation
151 (belongs into a distro pattern though, not in an upstream package's service file)
153 * perhaps add "systemctl reenable" as combination of "systemctl disable" and "systemctl enable"
155 * need a way to apply mount options of api vfs from systemd unit files
156 (or some other modern source?) instead of fstab?
158 * maybe introduce ExecRestartPre=
160 * figure out what happened to bluez patch
162 * Patch systemd-fsck to use -C and pass console fd to it
164 * configurable jitter for timer events
166 * Support ProcessNeededForShutdown=true to allow stuff like mdmon to
167 be killed very late after the rootfs is read only? If implement pass
168 this to shutdown binary via command line argument.
170 * use pivot_root on shutdown so that we can unmount the root directory.
171 - copy binaries to, and pivot_root() to the "shutdown tmpfs"
172 - solve "mdadm --wait-clean" problem that way
174 * dot output for --test showing the 'initial transaction'
176 * calendar time support in timer, iCalendar semantics for the timer stuff (RFC2445)
177 - timerfd() with TFD_TIMER_CANCELON_SET support: https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/4/27/383
180 - get PR_SET_ANCHOR merged: http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/2/2/165
183 - provide CK functionality
184 - start getty only when actual vt switch happens (same model as
185 socket on-demand activation). allocate the next free tty and
186 start a getty there. this way, pressing alt-f[1-12] will switch
187 through running X and getty sessions, and any unallocated
188 activated tty will start a new getty. the hardcoding of
189 getty[1-6] will entirely go away.
190 - http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/gregkh/tty-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=fbc92a3455577ab17615cbcb91826399061bd789
192 * implicitly import "defaults" settings file into all types
194 * port over to LISTEN_FDS/LISTEN_PID:
196 - rpcbind (/var/run/rpcbind.sock!) HAVEPATCH
200 - libvirtd (/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock-ro)
201 - bluetoothd (/var/run/sdp! @/org/bluez/audio!)
204 * fingerprint.target, wireless.target, gps.target, netdevice.target
206 * set_put(), hashmap_put() return values check. i.e. == 0 doesn't free()!
208 * io priority during initialization
210 * if a service fails too often, make the service enter failed mode, and the socket, too.
212 * systemctl list-jobs - show dependencies
214 * auditd service files
216 * add systemctl switch to dump transaction without executing it
218 * suspend, resume support?
220 * readahead: btrfs/LVM SSD detection
222 * add separate man page for [Install] settings
224 * allow runtime changing of log level and target
226 * drop cap bounding set in readahead and other services
230 * udisks should not use udisks-part-id, instead use blkid. also not probe /dev/loopxxx
232 * snd-seq should go, https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=676095
234 * gnome-shell python script/glxinfo/is-accelerated must die
236 * make cryptsetup lower --iter-time
238 * patch kernel for xattr support in /dev, /proc/, /sys and /sys/fs/cgroup?
240 * patch kernel for cpu feature modalias for autoloading aes/kvm/...
241 http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/ak/linux-misc-2.6.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/cpuid-match
242 (Rafael J. Wysocki's sysdev rework is on the way. After that CPUs can be exported a proper bus.)
244 * procps, psmisc, sysvinit-tools, hostname → util-linux-ng

267 * look for close() vs. close_nointr() vs. close_nointr_nofail()
269 * check for strerror(r) instead of strerror(-r)
271 * Use PR_SET_PROCTITLE_AREA if it becomes available in the kernel
273 * %m in printf() instead of strerror();
277 * CFLAGS="-Wl,--gc-sections -Wl,--print-gc-sections -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections"
