2 * check systemd-tmpfiles for selinux context hookup for mknod(), symlink() and similar
4 * swap units that are activated by one name but shown in the kernel under another are semi-broken
6 * make anaconda write timeout=0 for encrypted devices
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 * https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=680689
24 * instantiated [Install] for target units
25 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54377
27 * support *static* (/run) hibernate inhibitors. All rpm -i actions should completely prevent any
28 sort of hibernate action until the next reboot. If the kernel or any other base tool is replaced
29 by rpm, the resume path might fail, the for resume needed kernel might even be uninstalled, and
30 the whole situation leads directly to data loss.
32 * move debug shell to tty6 and make sure this doesn't break the gettys on tty6
34 * move cryptsetup key caching into kernel keyctl?
35 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54982
37 * make nspawn work without terminal
39 * hw watchdog: optionally try to use the preset watchdog timeout instead of always overriding it
40 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54712
42 * after deserializing sockets in socket.c we should reapply sockopts and things
44 * does vasprintf advance the struct vaargs? http://pastie.org/pastes/4712773/text
46 * do shutdown audit/utmp msgs inside of PID 1, get rid of systemd-update-utmp-runlevel
48 * make timer units go away after they elapsed
50 * http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2012-September/006502.html
52 * come up with a nice way to write queue/read_ahead_kb for a block device without interfering with readahead
54 * journald: add kernel cmdline option to disable ratelimiting for debug purposes
56 * move PID 1 segfaults to /var/lib/systemd/coredump?
58 * Document word splitting syntax for ExecStart= and friends
60 * when writing journal entries order field items by their address to improve speed on rotating media
62 * create /sbin/init symlinks from the build system
64 * Query Paul Moore about relabelling socket fds while they are open
66 * move keymaps to /usr/lib/... rather than /usr/lib/udev/...
68 * journald: check whether it is OK if the client can still modify delivered journal entries
72 * json: properly serialize multiple fields with the same name per entry
74 * journal live copy, based on libneon (client) and libmicrohttpd
76 * document in wiki json serialization
78 * system-wide seccomp filter
80 * ability to pass fds into systemd
82 * system.conf should have controls for cgroups
84 * bind mount read-only the cgroup tree higher than than nspawn
86 * currently system services appear not to generate core dumps...
88 * wall messages for shutdown should move to logind
90 * allow writing multiple conditions in unit files on one line
92 * cleanup ellipsation for log output in journalctl and systemctl status: have a sane way to disable ellipsation, and disable it by default when invoked in less/more
94 * explore multiple service instances per listening socket idea
96 * testing tool for socket activation: some binary that listens on a socket and passes it on using the usual socket activation protocol to some server.
98 * maybe make systemd-detect-virt suid? or use fscaps?
100 * shutdown: don't read-only mount anything when running in container
102 * nspawn: --read-only is not applied recursively to submounts
104 * MountFlags=shared acts as MountFlags=slave right now.
106 * ReadOnlyDirectories= is not applied recursively to submounts
108 * drop PID 1 reloading, only do reexecing (difficult: Reload()
109 currently is properly synchronous, Reexec() is weird, because we
110 can't delay the response properly until we are back, so instead of
111 being properly synchronous we just keep open the fd and close it
112 when done. That means clients don't get a succesful method reply,
113 but much rather a disconnect on success.
115 * document that service reload may be implemented as service reexec
117 * remember which condition failed for services, not just the fact that something failed
119 * use opterr = 0 for all getopt tools
121 * properly handle loop back mounts via fstab, especially regards to fsck/passno
123 * allow services with no ExecStart= but with an ExecStop=
125 * add proper journal support to "systemctl --user status ..."
127 * add _SYSTEMD_USER_UNIT= field to journal entries
129 * dracut-shutdown needs to be ordered before unmounting /boot
131 * initialize the hostname from the fs label of /, if /etc/hostname does not exist?
133 * install README to /etc/rc.d/init.d (if support for that is enabled) helping people who use "ls" there to figure out which services exist.
135 * logind: ignore inactive login screens when checking whether power key should be handled
137 * rename "userspace" to "core-os"
139 * systemctl: "Journal has been rotated since unit was started." message is misleading
141 * syscall filter: add knowledge about compat syscalls
143 * syscall filter: don't enforce no new privs?
145 * syscall filter: option to return EPERM rather than SIGSYS?
147 * syscall filter: port to libseccomp
149 * logind: wakelock/opportunistic suspend support
151 * systemd-analyze post-boot is broken for initrd
153 * man: clarify that time-sync.target is not only sysv compat but also useful otherwise. Same for similar targets
155 * .device aliases need to be implemented with the "following" logic, probably.
157 * refuse taking lower-case variable names in sd_journal_send() and friends.
159 * load-fragment: when loading a unit file via a chain of symlinks
160 verify that it isn't masked via any of the names traversed.
162 * journald: we currently rotate only after MaxUse+MaxFilesize has been reached.
167 * introduce Type=pid-file
169 * systemctl list-unit-files appears to be broken for symlinked units in /usr/lib
171 * maybe allow services with ExecStop= set, but no ExecStart=?
173 * efi: implement /forcefsck as uefi variables thus not requiring file system altering to trigger a file system check
175 * efi: honour language efi variables for default language selection
177 * efi: honour timezone efi variables for default timezone selection
179 * efi: automatically mount EFI partition to /boot if no such entry exists in /etc/fstab and /boot is empty
180 gummiboot exports the EFI system partion (ESP) device:
181 /sys/firmware/efi/vars/LoaderDeviceIdentifier-4a67b082-0a4c-41cf-b6c7-440b29bb8c4f/data
182 Acpi(PNP0A03,0)/Pci(1F|2)/?/HD(Part1,Sig1FCBC57F-4BFC-4C2B-91A3-9C84FBCD9AF1)
183 '/' is the separator for the device path list
184 HD(Part1,Sig1FCBC57F-4BFC-4C2B-91A3-9C84FBCD9AF1) contains the GPT UUID of the ESP
186 * read the bootloader performance data (raw TSC) in systemd-analyze
187 /sys/firmware/efi/vars/LoaderTicksExec-4a67b082-0a4c-41cf-b6c7-440b29bb8c4f/data
189 /sys/firmware/efi/vars/LoaderTicksInit-4a67b082-0a4c-41cf-b6c7-440b29bb8c4f/data
191 /sys/firmware/efi/vars/LoaderTicksStartMenu-4a67b082-0a4c-41cf-b6c7-440b29bb8c4f/data

202 * nspawn: make use of device cgroup contrller by default
204 * drop accountsservice's StandardOutput=syslog and Type=dbus fields
206 * when breaking cycles drop sysv services first, then services from /run, then from /etc, then from /usr
208 * readahead: when bumping /sys readahead variable save mtime and compare later to detect changes
210 * (attempt to) make Debianites happy:
211 - implement .d/ auto includes for unit files
212 - add syntax to reset ExecStart= lists (and similar)
214 * move passno parsing to fstab generator
216 * improve !/proc/*/loginuid situation: make /proc/*/loginuid less dependent on CONFIG_AUDIT,
217 or use the users cgroup information when /proc/*/loginuid is not available.
219 * pam_systemd: try to get old session id from cgroup, if audit sessionid cannot be determined
221 * pam: when leaving a session explicitly exclude the ReleaseSession() caller process from the killing spree
223 * maybe introduce ~/.config/locale.conf and apply it within PAM
225 * readahead: make use of EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT, as used by http://e4rat.sourceforge.net/
227 * automount: implement expire
229 * logind: auto-suspend, auto-shutdown:
230 IdleAction=(none|suspend|opportunistic|hibernate|poweroff)
232 SessionIdleMode=(explicit|ignore|login)
233 ForceShutdown=(yes|no)
235 * services which create their own subcgroups break cgroup-empty notification (needs to be fixed in the kernel)
237 * don't delete /tmp/systemd-namespace-* before a process is gone down
239 * vconsole: implement setterm -store -foreground xxx --background zzz
241 * ExecOnFailure=/usr/bin/foo
243 * fedora: make sshd and pam_loginuid work in nspawn containers
245 * fix utmp for console logins in containers
247 * Add pretty name for seats in logind
249 * ConditionSecurity= should learn about IMA
251 * Auke: merge Auke's bootchart
255 * udev systemd unify:
256 - strpcpy(), strpcpyl(), strscpy(), strscpyl()
257 - utf8 validator code
258 - now() vs. now_usec()
260 * udev: remove network interface renaming, sleep and retry logic, we do
261 no support renaming of interfaces in the conflicting kernel
264 * udev: find a way to tell udev to not cancel firmware requests when running in initramfs
266 * udev: scsi_id -> sg3_utils -> kill scsi_id
268 * udev: add trigger --subsystem-match=usb/usb_device device
270 * allow configuration of console width/height in vconsole.conf
272 * cleanup syslog 'priority' vs. 'level' wording
274 * dbus upstream still refers to dbus.target and shouldn't
276 * 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

282 * journalctl: show multiline log messages sanely, expand tabs, and show all valid utf8 messages
284 * add DeleteSocketsOnStop=yes|no option to socket units
286 * journal: store euid in journal if it differs from uid
288 * There's currently no way to cancel fsck (used to be possible via C-c or c on the console)

292 * add command to systemctl to plot dependency graph as tree (see rhbz 795365)
294 * add option to sockets to avoid activation. Instead just drop packets/connections, see http://cyberelk.net/tim/2012/02/15/portreserve-systemd-solution/
296 * default unix qlen is too small (10). bump sysctl? add sockopt?
298 * Possibly, detect whether SysV init scripts can do reloading by looking for "echo Usage:" lines
300 * figure out whether we should leave dbus around during shutdown
302 * dbus: in fedora, make the machine a symlink to /etc/machine-id
304 * dbus: move dbus to early boot
306 * journald: reuse XZ context
308 * logind: add equivalent to sd_pid_get_owner_uid() to the D-Bus API
310 * journal: API for looking for retrieving "all values of this field"
312 * journal: deal nicely with byte-by-byte copied files, especially regards header

326 * support crash reporting operation modes (https://live.gnome.org/GnomeOS/Design/Whiteboards/ProblemReporting)
328 * clean up session cgroups that remain after logout (think sshd), but eventually run empty
330 * support "systemctl stop foobar@.service" to stop all units matching a certain template
332 * logind: allow showing logout dialog from system
334 * document that %% can be used to write % in a string that is specifier extended
336 * when an instanced service exits, remove its parent cgroup too if possible.
338 * default to actual 32bit PIDs, via /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max
340 * be able to specify a forced restart of service A where service B depends on, in case B
341 needs to be auto-respawned?
343 * Something is wrong with symlink handling of "autovt@.service" in "systemctl list-unit-files"
345 * when a bus name of a service disappears from the bus make sure to queue further activation requests
347 * something like ConditionExec= or ExecStartPre= without failure state
349 * tmpfiles: apply "x" on "D" too (see patch from William Douglas)
351 * don't set $HOME in services unless requested
353 * hide PAM/TCPWrap options in fragment parser when compile time disabled
355 * when we automatically restart a service, ensure we restart its rdeps, too.
357 * allow Type=simple with PIDFile=
358 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=723942
360 * move PAM code into its own binary

369 in Avahi, RPC and other socket registration services.
371 * make sure systemd-ask-password-wall does not shutdown systemd-ask-password-console too early
373 * readahead: use BTRFS_IOC_DEFRAG_RANGE instead of BTRFS_IOC_DEFRAG ioctl, with START_IO
375 * readahead: check whether a btrfs volume includes ssd by checking mount flag "ssd"
377 * support sd_notify() style notification when reload begins (RELOADING=1), reload is finished (READY=1), and add ReloadSignal= then to use in combination
379 * support sd_notify() style notification when shutting down, to make auto-exit bus services work (STOPPING=1)
381 * verify that the AF_UNIX sockets of a service in the fs still exist
382 when we start a service in order to avoid confusion when a user
383 assumes starting a service is enough to make it accessible
385 * Make it possible to set the keymap independently from the font on
386 the kernel cmdline. Right now setting one resets also the other.
388 * move nss-myhostname into systemd
390 * and a dbus call to generate target from current state
392 * drop /.readahead on bigger upgrades with yum
394 * add support for /bin/mount -s
396 * GC unreferenced jobs (such as .device jobs)
398 * write blog stories about:

403 - how to pass throw-away units to systemd, or dynamically change properties of existing units
404 - how to integrate cgconfig and suchlike with systemd
405 - resource control in systemd
407 - testing with Harald's awesome test kit
410 * allow port=0 in .socket units

418 * when key file cannot be found, read it from kbd in cryptsetup
420 * reuse mkdtemp namespace dirs in /tmp?
422 * recreate systemd's D-Bus private socket file on SIGUSR2
424 * Support --test based on current system state
426 * investigate whether the gnome pty helper should be moved into systemd, to provide cgroup support.
428 * maybe introduce ExecRestartPre=
430 * configurable jitter for timer events
432 * timer events with system resume
434 * timer events on calendar time:
435 maybe use this time syntax? http://ohse.de/uwe/uschedule/uschedule.html
437 * dot output for --test showing the 'initial transaction'
439 * calendar time support in timer, iCalendar semantics for the timer stuff (RFC2445)
440 http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=99ee5315dac6211e972fa3f23bcc9a0343ff58c4

444 * writable cgroups dbus properties for live changes
446 * read config fragments for all units from /lib/systemd/system/foobar.service.d/ to override/extend specific settings
448 * port over to LISTEN_FDS/LISTEN_PID:
449 - rpcbind (/var/run/rpcbind.sock!) HAVEPATCH
453 - libvirtd (/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock-ro)
454 - bluetoothd (/var/run/sdp! @/org/bluez/audio!)
457 * fingerprint.target, wireless.target, gps.target, netdevice.target
459 * io priority during initialization
461 * systemctl list-jobs - show dependencies
463 * add systemctl switch to dump transaction without executing it
465 * drop cap bounding set in readahead and other services
471 - natively watch for dbus-*.service symlinks (PENDING)
472 - allow specification of socket mode/umask when allocating DBusServer
473 - allow disabling of fd passing when connecting a AF_UNIX connection
474 - allow disabling of UID passing for AUTH EXTERNAL
475 - always pass cred data along each message
477 * fix alsa mixer restore to not print error when no config is stored
479 * gnome-shell python script/glxinfo/is-accelerated must die
481 * make cryptsetup lower --iter-time
483 * patch kernel for xattr support in /dev, /proc/, /sys and /sys/fs/cgroup?
485 * NTP: the kernel's 11-minutes-mode syncs the system time to the RTC, but only
486 in an ~30 minutes window. It does not adjust larger differences. Find a way
487 to tell the kernel, to always do a full time sync when the RTC is in UTC and
488 we are in 11-minutes-mode. When we trust the system time to NTP we also want
491 * kernel: add device_type = "fb", "fbcon" to class "graphics"
495 * look for close() vs. close_nointr() vs. close_nointr_nofail()
497 * check for strerror(r) instead of strerror(-r)
499 * Use PR_SET_PROCTITLE_AREA if it becomes available in the kernel
501 * %m in printf() instead of strerror(errno);
505 * set_put(), hashmap_put() return values check. i.e. == 0 doesn't free()!
507 * use secure_getenv() instead of getenv() where appropriate
509 Scheduled for removal (or fixing):
511 * xxxOverridable dependencies
