* swap units that are activated by one name but shown in the kernel under another are semi-broken
-* make anaconda write timeout=0 for encrypted devices
-
* Dangling symlinks of .automount unit files in .wants/ directories, set up
automount points even when the original .automount file did not exist
anymore. Only the .mount unit was still around.
* properly handle .mount unit state tracking when two mount points are stacked one on top of another on the exact same mount point.
Fedora 19:
-* Retest multi-seat
-* create /var/log/journal/
+* 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 for a human.
+
+* cgroup attrs:
+ - update dbus interface docs in wiki
+
+* localed:
+ - localectl: support new converted x11→console keymaps
+
+* when installing fedora with yum --installroot /var/run is a directory, not a symlink
Features:
-* re-enable "make check" for gtk-doc (broken for unknown reason)
-* logind: make PrepareForSuspend(false) an official api for notification of resumes
+* service_coldplug() appears to reinstall the wrong stop timeout watch?
-* "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.
+* transient units: allow creating auxiliary units with the same call
-* 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
+* make BlockIODeviceWeight=, BlockIODeviceBandwidth= runtime settable
-* add "loginctl unlock-sessions" as counterpart for "loginctl lock-sessions"
+* split up BlockIOWeight= and BlockIODeviceWeight=
-* extend cgroup attr dbus calls to optionally make changes persistent, and retrieve current kernel values
+* how to reset dynamically changed attributes sanely?
-* support high-level cgroup setting syntax in systemctl. Example: "systemctl set-cgroup-attr MemoryLimit 5K"
+* when reloading configuration, apply new cgroup configuration
-* print a nicer explanation if people use variable/specifier expansion in ExecStart= for the first word
+* implement system-wide DefaultCPUAccounting=1 switch (and similar for blockio, memory?)
-* kernel cmdline switch to turn off predictable network interface names
+* implement per-slice CPUFairScheduling=1 switch
-* mount: turn dependency information from /proc/self/mountinfo into dependency information between systemd units.
+* handle jointly mounted controllers correctly
-* logind: optionally, ignore idle-hint logic for autosuspend, block suspend as long as a session is around
+* split out CreateMachine into systemd-machined
-* service: when killing a service with SIGKILL always kill all processes, even if for SIGTERM we only killed the main process
+* introduce new Scope unit type then make logind's session and machine
+ registration use this to set up cgroups
-* exec: when deinitializating a tty device fix the perms and group, too, not only when initializing. Set access mode/gid to 0620/tty.
+* should Slice= be part of [Unit] or of [Service]?
-* DeviceAllow/DeviceDeny: disallow everything by default, but whitelist /dev/zero, /dev/null and friends
+* journald: make sure ratelimit is actually really per-service with the new cgroup changes
-* service: watchdog logic: for testing purposes allow ping, but do not require pong
+* move systemctl dump to systemd-analyze
+
+* libsystemd-logind: sd_session_is_active() and friends: verify
+ validity of session name before appending it to a path
+
+* logind: when a PAM client calls ReleaseSession() start a timeout and
+ kill the session entirely after that is reached.
+
+* gparted needs to disable auto-activation of mount units somehow, or
+ maybe we should stop doing auto-activiation of this after boot
+ entirely. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=701676
+
+* when a service changes state make reflect that in the
+ RUNNING/LISTENING states of its socket
+
+* when recursively showing the cgroup hierarchy, optionally also show
+ the hierarchies of child processes
+
+* document logic of auto/noauto and fail/nofail in fstab in systemd.mount or systemd-fstab-generator man page
+
+* we should properly escape ssh hostnames we add into dbus server strings
+
+* something pulls in pcre as so dep into our daemons such as hostnamed.
+
+* cgroup-agent: downgrade error messages
+
+* document systemd-journal-flush.service properly
+
+* chane systemd-journal-flush into a service that stays around during
+ boot, and causes the journal to be moved back to /run on shutdown,
+ so that we don't keep /var busy. This needs to happen synchronously,
+ hence doing this via signals is not going to work.
+
+* allow implementation of InaccessibleDirectories=/ plus
+ ReadOnlyDirectories=... for whitelisting files for a service.
+
+* libsystemd-journal:
+ - return ECHILD as soon as somebody tries to reuse a journal object across a fork()
+
+* libsystemd-bus:
+ - default policy (allow uid == 0 and our own uid)
+ - enforce alignment of pointers passed in
+ - when kdbus doesn't take our message without memfds, try again with memfds
+ - implement translator service
+ - port systemd to new library
+ - implement busname unit type in systemd
+ - move to gvariant
+ - merge busctl into systemctl or so?
+ - synthesize sd_bus_message objects from kernel messages
+ - properly implement name registry ioctls for kdbus
+ - get rid of object hash table, use decision tree everyhwere instead?
+ - implement monitor logic
+ - object vtable logic
+ - longer term:
+ * priority queues
+ * priority inheritance
+
+* in the final killing spree, detect processes from the root directory, and
+ complain loudly if they have argv[0][0] == '@' set.
+ https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=961044
+
+* add an option to nspawn that uses seccomp to make socket(AF_NETLINK,
+ SOCK_RAW, NETLINK_AUDIT) fail the the appropriate error code that
+ makes the audit userspace to think auditing is not available in the
+ kernel.
+
+* Introduce a way how we can kill the main process of a service with KillSignal, but all processes with SIGKILL later on
+ https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=952634
+
+* maybe add a warning to the unit file parses whern the acces mode of unit files is non-sensical.
+
+* investigate endianess issues of UUID vs. GUID
+
+* dbus: when a unit failed to load (i.e. is in UNIT_ERROR state), we
+ should be able to safely try another attempt when the bus call LoadUnit() is invoked.
+
+* if pam_systemd is invoked by su from a process that is outside of a
+ any session we should probably just become a NOP, since that's
+ usually not a real user session but just some system code that just
+ needs setuid().
+
+* add a pam module that passes the hdd passphrase into the PAM stack and then expires it, for usage by gdm auto-login.
+
+* add a pam module that on password changes updates any LUKS slot where the password matches
+
+* maybe add a generator that looks for "systemd.run=" on the kernel cmdline for container usercases...
+
+* timedatctl, localectl: possibly make some commands work without the daemon, for chroot situations...
+
+* logind: add Suspend() bus calls which take timestamps to fix double suspend issues when somebody hits suspend and closes laptop quickly.
+
+* we need dynamic units
+
+* cgtop: make cgtop useful in a container
+
+* test/:
+ - add 'set -e' to scripts in test/
+ - make stuff in test/ work with separate output dir
+ - remove all the duplicated code in test/
+
+* suppress log output on shutdown when "quiet" is used
+
+* systemctl delete x.snapshot leaves no trace in logs (at least at default level).
+
+* make the coredump collector tool move itself into the user's cgroup
+ so that the coredump is properly written to the user's own journal
+ file.
+
+* move /usr/lib/modules/$(uname -r)/modules.devname parsing from udevd to
+ kmod static-nodes
+ call kmod as an early service, and drop CAP_MKNOD from udevd.service
+
+* seems that when we follow symlinks to units we prefer the symlink
+ destination path over /etc and /usr. We shouldn't do that. Instead
+ /etc should always override /run+/usr and also any symlink
+ destination.
+
+* remove duplicate default deps logic from fstab-generator vs. mount.c
+
+* when isolating, try to figure out a way how we implicitly can order
+ all units we stop before the isolating unit...
+
+* teach udev + logind's uaccess to somehow handle the "dead" device nodes from:
+ /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/modules.devname
+ and apply ACLs to them if they have TAG=="uaccess" in udev rules.
+
+* add ConditionArchitecture= or so
+
+* teach ConditionKernelCommandLine= globs or regexes (in order to match foobar={no,0,off})
+
+* we should log capabilities too
-* 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
+* Support SO_REUSEPORT with socket activation:
+ - Let systemd maintain a pool of servers.
+ - Use for seamless upgrades, by running the new server before stopping the
+ old.
-* journald: also get thread ID from client, plus thread name
+* after all byte-wise realloc() is slow, even on glibc, so i guess we
+ need manual exponential loops after all
-* check if we can make journalctl by default use --follow mode inside of less if called without args?
+* BootLoaderSpec: drop allowing ext234 for $BOOT. Clarify that the
+ kernel has to be in $BOOT. Clarify that the boot loader should be
+ installed to the ESP. Define a way how an installer can figure out
+ whether a BLS compliant boot loader is installed.
-* Add a verbose mode to "systemctl start" and friends that explains what is being done or not done
+* man: remove .include documentation, and instead push people to use .d/*.conf
-* journal is not closed properly at shutdown when run in a container?
+* think about requeuing jobs when daemon-reload is issued? usecase:
+ the initrd issues a reload after fstab from the host is accessible
+ and we might want to requeue the mounts local-fs acquired through
+ that automatically.
-* journal: when waiting for journal additions in the client always sleep at least 1s or so, in order to minimize wakeups
+* rework specifier logic so that we can distuingish OOM errors from other errors
-* When shutdown.target is queued begin with an asynchronous sync()?
+* systemd-inhibit: make taking delay locks useful: support sending SIGINT or SIGTERM on PrepareForSleep()
-* add API to close/reopen/get fd for journal client fd in libsystemd-journal.
+* journal-or-kmsg is currently broken? See reverted commit 4a01181e460686d8b4a543b1dfa7f77c9e3c5ab8.
-* maybe add API to send pairs of iovecs via sd_journal_send
+* remove any syslog support from log.c -- we probably can't do this before split-off udev is gone for good
-* fallback to /dev/log based logging in libsystemd-journal, if we can't log natively?
+* documentation: recommend to connect the timer units of a service to the service via Also= in [Install]
-* declare the local journal protocol stable in the wiki interface chart
+* add a tool that lists active timer units plus their next elapstion and the time the units ran last
-* journal: reuse XZ context
+* man: document the very specific env the shutdown drop-in tools live in
-* sd-journal: speed up sd_journal_get_data() with transparent hash table in bg
+* shutdown logging: store to EFI var, and store to USB stick?
+
+* man: extend runlevel(8) to mention that runlevels suck, and are dead. Maybe add runlevel(7) with a note about that too
+
+* systemctl: maybe add "systemctl add-wants" or so...
+
+* man: add more examples to man pages
+
+* man: maybe sort directives in man pages, and take sections from --help and apply them to man too
+
+* write UI tool that pops up emergency messages from the journal as notification
+
+* think about window-manager-run-as-user-service problem: exit 0 → activate shutdown.target; exit != 0 → restart service
+
+* msgcatalog determine default language of entries from the catalog
+ file name. i.e. foobar.de_DE.catalog would set the default entry
+ name for the entries to de_DE if they aren't explicitly suffixed
+ individually.
+
+* use "log level" rather than "log priority" everywhere
+
+* timedate: have global on/off switches for auto-time (NTP), and auto-timezone that connman can subscribe to.
+
+* Honour "-" prefix for InaccessibleDirectories= and ReadOnlyDirectories= to
+ suppress errors of the specified path doesn't exist
+
+* dev-setup.c: when running in a container, create a tiny stub udev
+ database with the systemd tag set for all network interfaces found,
+ so that libudev reports them as present, and systemd's .device units
+ will be activated.
+
+* merge unit_kill_common() and unit_kill_context()
+
+* introduce ExecCondition= in services
+
+* EFI:
+ - fsck hookup for the ESP mount is missing
+ - write man page for efi boot generator
+ - honor language efi variables for default language selection (if there are any?)
+ - honor timezone efi variables for default timezone selection (if there are any?)
+ - introduce bootctl (backed by systemd-bootd) to control temporary and persistent default boot goal plus efi variables
+
+* maybe do not install getty@tty1.service symlink in /etc but in /usr?
+
+* re-enable "make check" for gtk-doc (broken for unknown reason)
+
+* 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
+
+* print a nicer explanation if people use variable/specifier expansion in ExecStart= for the first word
+
+* mount: turn dependency information from /proc/self/mountinfo into dependency information between systemd units.
+
+* logind:
+ - logind: optionally, ignore idle-hint logic for autosuspend, block suspend as long as a session is around

+ - logind: add equivalent to sd_pid_get_owner_uid() to the D-Bus API
+ - pam: when leaving a session explicitly exclude the ReleaseSession() caller process from the killing spree
+ - logind: GetSessionByPID() should accept 0 as PID value
+ - we should probably handle SIGTERM/SIGINT to not leave dot files around, just in case
+
+* 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
+
+* journal:
+ - do not use magic msync() in src/journal/journal-file.c, just call fsync()
+ <alxchk> poettering: looks like msync just calls vfs_fsync
+ http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/mm/msync.c#n18
+ - import and delete pstore filesystem content at startup
+ - journald: also get thread ID from client, plus thread name

+ and !FOOBAR for events without FOOBAR.
+ - journal: when rotating, copy over old acls/access mode
+ - journal: send out marker messages every now and then, and immediately sync with fdatasync() afterwards, in order to have hourly guaranteed syncs.

+ - journalctl: show multiline log messages sanely, expand tabs, and show all valid utf8 messages
+ - journal: store euid in journal if it differs from uid

+ - Replace utmp, wtmp, btmp, and lastlog completely with journal
+ - Port upower to use the journal for historical power information used in future calculations
+
+* document:
+ - document unit_name_mangle()
+ - document that deps in [Unit] sections ignore Alias= fileds in
+ [Install] units of other units, unless those units are disabled
+ - man: clarify that time-sync.target is not only sysv compat but also useful otherwise. Same for similar targets
+ - Document word splitting syntax for ExecStart= and friends
+ - document that units from /etc override those from /usr and /run
+ - document the exit codes when services fail before they are exec()ed
+ - document that service reload may be implemented as service reexec
+ - document in wiki how to map ical recurrence events to systemd timer unit calendar specifications
+
+* systemctl:
+ - systemctl list-jobs - show dependencies
+ - add systemctl switch to dump transaction without executing it
+ - Add a verbose mode to "systemctl start" and friends that explains what is being done or not done
+ - "systemctl disable" on a static unit prints no message and does
+ nothing. "systemctl enable" does nothing, and gives a bad message

+ - print nice message from systemctl --failed if there are no entries shown, and hook that into ExecStartPre of rescue.service/emergency.service
+ - add new command to systemctl: "systemctl system-reexec" which reexecs as many daemons as virtually possible
+ - systemctl enable: improve the success messages (i.e. more human readable, less shell-like)
+ - systemctl enable: fail if target to alias into doesn't exist? maybe show how many units are enabled afterwards?
+ - systemctl: "Journal has been rotated since unit was started." message is misleading
+ - support "systemctl stop foobar@.service" to stop all units matching a certain template
+ - Something is wrong with symlink handling of "autovt@.service" in "systemctl list-unit-files"
* introduce ntp.service (or suchlike) as symlink that is used to arbitrate between various NTP implementations
-* timer units should get the ability to trigger when:
- - CLOCK_REALTIME makes jumps (TFD_TIMER_CANCEL_ON_SET)
- - DST changes
+* deal with sendmail/postfix exclusivity
+
+* timer units:
+ - configurable jitter for timer events
