* wiki: update journal format documentation for lz4 additions
-* When lz4 gets an API for lz4 command output, make use of it to
- compress coredumps in a way compatible with /usr/bin/lz4.
+Janitorial Clean-ups:
+
+* code cleanup: retire FOREACH_WORD_QUOTED, port to extract_first_word() loops instead
+
+* replace manual readdir() loops with FOREACH_DIRENT or FOREACH_DIRENT_ALL
+
+* Get rid of the last strerror() invocations in favour of %m and strerror_r()
+
+* Rearrange tests so that the various test-xyz.c match a specific src/basic/xyz.c again
Features:
-* add a concept of RemainAfterExit= to scope units
+* PID1: find a way how we can reload unit file configuration for
+ specific units only, without reloading the whole of systemd
+
+* add an explicit parser for LimitNICE= and LimitRTPRIO= that verifies
+ the specified range and generates sane error messages for incorrect
+ specifications. Also, for LimitNICE= maybe introduce a syntax such
+ as "+5" or "-7" in order to make the limits more readable as they
+ are otherwise shifted by 20.
+
+* do something about "/control" subcgroups in the unified cgroup hierarchy
+
+* when we detect that there are waiting jobs but no running jobs, do something
-* add journal vacuum by max number of files
+* push CPUAffinity= also into the "cpuset" cgroup controller (only after the cpuset controller got ported to the unified hierarchy)
* add a new command "systemctl revert" or so, that removes all dropin
snippets in /run and /etc, and all unit files with counterparts in
edit" create. Maybe even add "systemctl revert -a" to do this for
all units.
-* sd-event: maybe add support for inotify events
-
* PID 1 should send out sd_notify("WATCHDOG=1") messages (for usage in the --user mode, and when run via nspawn)
-* nspawn should send out sd_notify("WATCHDOG=1") messages
-
-* nspawn should optionally support receiving WATCHDOG=1 messages from its payload PID 1...
-
* consider throwing a warning if a service declares it wants to be "Before=" a .device unit.
* "systemctl edit" should know a mode to create a new unit file
prefixed with /sys generally special.
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2015-June/032962.html
-* Add PassEnvironment= setting to service units, to import select env vars from PID 1 into the service env block
-
-* nspawn: fix logic always print a final newline on output.
- https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/272#issuecomment-113153176
-
-* make nspawn's --network-veth switch more powerful:
- http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2015-June/033121.html
-
* man: document that unless you use StandardError=null the shell >/dev/stderr won't work in shell scripts in services
-* man: clarify that "machinectl show" shows different information than "machinectl status" (no cgroup tree, no IP addresses, ...)
-
* "systemctl daemon-reload" should result in /etc/systemd/system.conf being reloaded by systemd
* install: include generator dirs in unit file search paths
-* logind: follow PropertiesChanged state more closely, to deal with quick logouts and relogins
-
* invent a better systemd-run scheme for naming scopes, that works with remoting
-* add journalctl -H that talks via ssh to a remote peer and passes through binary logs data
-
-* change journalctl -M to acquire fd to journal directory via machined, and then operate on that via openat() instead of absolute paths
-
-* add a version of --merge which also merges /var/log/journal/remote
-
-* log accumulated resource usage after each service invocation
-
-* nspawn: a nice way to boot up without machine id set, so that it is set at boot automatically for supporting --ephemeral. Maybe hash the host machine id together with the machine name to generate the machine id for the container
-
-* logind: rename session scope so that it includes the UID. THat way
- the session scope can be arranged freely in slices and we don't have
- make assumptions about their slice anymore.
-
-* journalctl: -m should access container journals directly by enumerating them via machined, and also watch containers coming and going. Benefit: nspawn --ephemeral would start working nicely with the journal.
-
-* nspawn: don't copy /etc/resolv.conf from host into container unless we are in shared-network mode
-
-* nspawn: optionally automatically add FORWARD rules to iptables whenever nspawn is running, remove them when shut down.
-
-* importd: generate a nice warning if mkfs.btrfs is missing
-
-* nspawn: add a logic for cleaning up read-only, hidden container images in /var/lib/machines that are not ancestors of any non-hidden containers
-
-* nspawn: Improve error message when --bind= is used on a non-existing source directory
-
-* nspawn: maybe make copying of /etc/resolv.conf optional, and skip it if --read-only is used
-
-* man: document how update dkr images works with machinectl
- http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2015-February/028630.html
-
-* nspawn: as soon as networkd has a bus interface, hook up --network-interface=, --network-bridge= with networkd, to trigger netdev creation should an interface be missing
-
* rework C11 utf8.[ch] to use char32_t instead of uint32_t when referring
to unicode chars, to make things more expressive.
-* "machinectl migrate" or similar to copy a container from or to a
- difference host, via ssh
-
-* tmpfiles: creating new directories/subvolumes/fifos/device nodes
- should not follow symlinks. None of the other adjustment or creation
- calls follow symlinks.
-
* fstab-generator: default to tmpfs-as-root if only usr= is specified on the kernel cmdline
* docs: bring http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/MyServiceCantGetRealtime up to date
* Maybe add support for the equivalent of "ethtool advertise" to .link files?
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2015-April/030112.html
-* .timer units should optionally support CLOCK_BOOTTIME in addition to CLOCK_MONOTONIC
-
-* create a btrfs qgroup for /var/lib/machines, and add all container
- subvolumes we create to it.
-
-* When logging about multiple units (stopping BoundTo units, conflicts, etc.),
- log both units as UNIT=, so that journalctl -u triggers on both.
-
-* to allow "linking" of nspawn containers, extend --network-bridge= so
- that it can dynamically create bridge interfaces that are refcounted
- by the containers on them. For each group of containers to link together
-
-* journalctl --verify: don't show files that are currently being
- written to as FAIL, but instead show that their are being written
- to.
-
-* assign MESSAGE_ID to log messages about failed services
-
-* coredump: make the handler check /proc/$PID/rlimits for RLIMIT_CORE,
- and supress coredump if turned off. Then change RLIMIT_CORE to
- infinity by default for all services. This then allows per-service
- control of coredumping.
-
-* generate better errors when people try to set transient properties
- that are not supported...
- http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2015-February/028076.html
-
-* Introduce $LISTEN_NAMES to complement $LISTEN_FDS, containing a
- colon separated list of identifiers for the fds passed.
-
-* maybe introduce WantsMountsFor=? Usecase:
- http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2015-January/027729.html
-
-* rework kexec logic to use new kexec_file_load() syscall, so that we
- don't have to call kexec tool anymore.
-
* The udev blkid built-in should expose a property that reflects
whether media was sensed in USB CF/SD card readers. This should then
be used to control SYSTEMD_READY=1/0 so that USB card readers aren't
picked up by systemd unless they contain a medium. This would mirror
the behaviour we already have for CD drives.
-* nspawn: emulate /dev/kmsg using CUSE and turn off the syslog syscall
- with seccomp. That should provide us with a useful log buffer that
- systemd can log to during early boot, and disconnect container logs
- from the kernel's logs.
-
* networkd/udev: implement SR_IOV configuration in .link files:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2015-January/027451.html
-* When RLIMIT_NPROC is set from a unit file it currently always is set
- for root, not for the user set in User=, which makes it
- useless. After fixing this, set RLIMIT_NPROC for
- systemd-journal-xyz, and all other of our services that run under
- their own user ids, and use User= (but only in a world where userns
- is ubiquitous since otherwise we cannot invoke those daemons on the
- host AND in a container anymore). Also, if LimitNPROC= is used
- without User= we should warn and refuse operation.
-
-* logind: maybe allow configuration of the StopTimeout for session scopes
-
-* Set NoNewPrivileges= on all of our own services, where that makes sense
-
* Rework systemctl's GetAll property parsing to use the generic bus_map_all_properties() API
-* rework journald sigbus stuff to use mutex
-
-* import-dkr: support tarsum checksum verification, if it becomes reality one day...
-
-* import-dkr: convert json bits to nspawn configuration
-
* core/cgroup: support net_cls modules, and support automatically allocating class ids, then add support for making firewall changes depending on it, to implement a per-service firewall
-* introduce systemd-nspawn-ephemeral@.service, and hook it into "machinectl start" with a new --ephemeral switch
-
-* "machinectl status" should also show internal logs of the container in question
-
-* "machinectl list-images" should show os-release data, as well as machine-info data (including deployment level)
-
* Port various tools to make use of verbs.[ch], where applicable
-* "machinectl history"
-
-* "machinectl diff"
-
-* "machinectl commit" that takes a writable snapshot of a tree, invokes a shell in it, and marks it read-only after use
-
-* systemd-nspawn -x should support ephemeral instances of gpt images
-
* hostnamectl: show root image uuid
* sysfs set api in libudev is not const
* Find a solution for SMACK capabilities stuff:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2014-December/026188.html
-* port libmount hookup to use API's own inotify interface, as soon as that is table in libmount
-
* "systemctl preset-all" should probably order the unit files it
operates on lexicographically before starting to work, in order to
ensure deterministic behaviour if two unit files conflict (like DMs
do, for example)
-* resolved should optionally register additional per-interface LLMNR
- names, so that for the container case we can establish the same name
- (maybe "host") for referencing the server, everywhere.
-
-* systemd-journal-upload (or a new, related tool): allow pushing out
- journal messages onto the network in BSD syslog protocol,
- continuously. Default to some link-local IP mcast group, to make this
- useful as a one-stop debugging tool.
-
* synchronize console access with BSD locks:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2014-October/024582.html
* firstboot: make it useful to be run immediately after yum --installroot to set up a machine. (most specifically, make --copy-root-password work even if /etc/passwd already exists
-* timesyncd + resolved: add ugly bus calls to set NTP and DNS servers per-interface, for usage by NM
-
* add infrastructure to allocate dynamic/transient users and UID ranges, for use in user-namespaced containers, per-seat gdm login screens and gdm guest sessions
-* machined: add an API so that libvirt-lxc can inform us about network interfaces being removed or added to an existing machine
-
* maybe add support for specifier expansion in user.conf, specifically DefaultEnvironment=
-* code cleanup: retire FOREACH_WORD_QUOTED, port to extract_first_word() loops instead
-
* introduce systemd-timesync-wait.service or so to sync on an NTP fix?
* systemd --user should issue sd_notify() upon reaching basic.target, not on becoming idle
* consider showing the unit names during boot up in the status output, not just the unit descriptions
-* dhcp: do we allow configuring dhcp routes on interfaces that are not the one we got the dhcp info from?
-
* maybe allow timer units with an empty Units= setting, so that they
can be used for resuming the system but nothing else.
* maybe support a new very "soft" reboot mode, that simply kills all processes, disassembles everything, flushes /run and sysvipc, and then reexecs systemd again
-* man: document that corrupted journal files is nothing to act on
-
* man: maybe use the word "inspect" rather than "introspect"?
-* "machinectl list" should probably show columns for OS version and IP addresses
-
* systemctl: if some operation fails, show log output?
* systemctl edit:
- use equvalent of cat() to insert existing config as a comment, prepended with #.
Upon editor exit, lines with one # are removed, lines with two # are left with one #, etc.
-* refcounting in sd-resolve is borked
-
* exponential backoff in timesyncd and resolved when we cannot reach a server
+* timesyncd + resolved: add ugly bus calls to set NTP and DNS servers per-interface, for usage by NM
+
* extract_many_words() should probably be used by a lot of code that
currently uses FOREACH_WORD and friends. For example, most conf
parsing callbacks should use it.
* add systemd.abort_on_kill or some other such flag to send SIGABRT instead of SIGKILL
(throughout the codebase, not only PID1)
-* networkd:
- - add LLDP client side support
- - the DHCP lease data (such as NTP/DNS) is still made available when
- a carrier is lost on a link. It should be removed instantly.
- - expose in the API the following bits:
- - option 15, domain name and/or option 119, search list
- - option 12, host name and/or option 81, fqdn
- - option 123, 144, geolocation
- - option 252, configure http proxy (PAC/wpad)
- - provide a way to define a per-network interface default metric value
- for all routes to it. possibly a second default for DHCP routes.
- - allow Name= to be specified repeatedly in the [Match] section. Maybe also
- support Name=foo*|bar*|baz ?
- - duplicate address check for static IPs (like ARPCHECK in network-scripts)
- - allow DUID/IAID to be customized, see issue #394.
- - support configuration option for TSO (tcp segmentation offload)
- - networkd: whenever uplink info changes, make DHCP server send out FORCERENEW
-
* resolved:
- put networkd events and rtnl events at a higher priority, so that
we always process them before we process client requests
announce dname support. However, for DNSSEC it is necessary as the synthesized cname
will not be signed.
- cname on PTR (?)
+ - resolved should optionally register additional per-interface LLMNR
+ names, so that for the container case we can establish the same name
+ (maybe "host") for referencing the server, everywhere.
-* Allow multiple ExecStart= for all Type= settings, so that we can cover rescue.service nicely
+* refcounting in sd-resolve is borked
* Add a new verb "systemctl top"
* 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)
-* sd-event: generate a failure of a default event loop is executed out-of-thread
-
* add bus api to query unit file's X fields.
-* consider adding RuntimeDirectoryUser= + RuntimeDirectoryGroup=
-
-* sd-event: define more intervals where we will shift wakeup intervals around in, 1h, 6h, 24h, ...
-
* gpt-auto-generator:
- Support LUKS for root devices
- Define new partition type for encrypted swap? Support probed LUKS for encrypted swap?
* when we detect low battery and no AC on boot, show pretty splash and refuse boot
-* machined, localed: when we try to kill an empty cgroup, generate an ESRCH error over the bus
-
* libsystemd-journal, libsystemd-login, libudev: add calls to easily attach these objects to sd-event event loops
* be more careful what we export on the bus as (usec_t) 0 and (usec_t) -1
* sd-event
- allow multiple signal handlers per signal?
- document chaining of signal handler for SIGCHLD and child handlers
+ - define more intervals where we will shift wakeup intervals around in, 1h, 6h, 24h, ...
+ - generate a failure of a default event loop is executed out-of-thread
+ - maybe add support for inotify events
* in the final killing spree, detect processes from the root directory, and
complain loudly if they have argv[0][0] == '@' set.
* systemd-inhibit: make taking delay locks useful: support sending SIGINT or SIGTERM on PrepareForSleep()
-* journal-or-kmsg is currently broken? See reverted commit 4a01181e460686d8b4a543b1dfa7f77c9e3c5ab8.
-
* remove any syslog support from log.c -- we probably cannot do this before split-off udev is gone for good
* shutdown logging: store to EFI var, and store to USB stick?
-* 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
* merge unit_kill_common() and unit_kill_context()
* maybe do not install getty@tty1.service symlink in /etc but in /usr?
-* 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.
probably reduce the capability set it retains substantially.
(we need CAP_SYS_ADMIN for drmSetMaster(), so maybe not worth it)
- expose orientation sensors and tablet mode through logind
+ - maybe allow configuration of the StopTimeout for session scopes
+ - rename session scope so that it includes the UID. THat way
+ the session scope can be arranged freely in slices and we don't have
+ make assumptions about their slice anymore.
+ - follow PropertiesChanged state more closely, to deal with quick logouts and
+ relogins
* exec: when deinitializating a tty device fix the perms and group, too, not only when initializing. Set access mode/gid to 0620/tty.
- add API to close/reopen/get fd for journal client fd in libsystemd-journal.
- fallback to /dev/log based logging in libsystemd-journal, if we cannot log natively?
- declare the local journal protocol stable in the wiki interface chart
- - journal: reuse XZ context
- sd-journal: speed up sd_journal_get_data() with transparent hash table in bg
- journald: when dropping msgs due to ratelimit make sure to write
"dropped %u messages" not only when we are about to print the next
lazily. Encode just enough information in the file name, so that we
do not have to open it to know that it is not interesting for us, for
the most common operations.
+ - journal-or-kmsg is currently broken? See reverted
+ commit 4a01181e460686d8b4a543b1dfa7f77c9e3c5ab8.

+ - assign MESSAGE_ID to log messages about failed services
* document:
- document that deps in [Unit] sections ignore Alias= fields in
- document systemd-journal-flush.service properly
- documentation: recommend to connect the timer units of a service to the service via Also= in [Install]
- man: document the very specific env the shutdown drop-in tools live in
- - man: extend runlevel(8) to mention that runlevels suck, and are dead. Maybe add runlevel(7) with a note about that too
- 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
- add new command to systemctl: "systemctl system-reexec" which reexecs as many daemons as virtually possible
- systemctl enable: fail if target to alias into does not 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"
- better error message if you run systemctl without systemd running
- systemctl status output should should include list of triggering units and their status
o DST changes
- Support 2012-02~4 as syntax for specifying the fourth to last day of the month.
- calendarspec: support value ranges with ".." notation. Example: 2013-4..8-1
- - 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
- Modulate timer frequency based on battery state
* add libsystemd-password or so to query passwords during boot using the password agent logic
-* 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().
-
* clean up date formatting and parsing so that all absolute/relative timestamps we format can also be parsed
* on shutdown: move utmp, wall, audit logic all into PID 1 (or logind?), get rid of systemd-update-utmp-runlevel
* currently x-systemd.timeout is lost in the initrd, since crypttab is copied into dracut, but fstab is not
* nspawn:
- - refuses to boot containers without /etc/machine-id (OK?), and with empty /etc/machine-id (not OK).
+ - to allow "linking" of nspawn containers, extend --network-bridge= so
+ that it can dynamically create bridge interfaces that are refcounted

* cryptsetup:
- cryptsetup-generator: allow specification of passwords in crypttab itself
* hw watchdog: optionally try to use the preset watchdog timeout instead of always overriding it
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54712
-* after deserializing sockets in socket.c we should reapply sockopts and things
-
-* make timer units go away after they elapsed
-
-* move PID 1 segfaults to /var/lib/systemd/coredump?
-
* create /sbin/init symlinks from the build system
-* allow writing multiple conditions in unit files on one line
-
* MountFlags=shared acts as MountFlags=slave right now.
-* drop PID 1 reloading, only do reexecing (difficult: Reload()
- currently is properly synchronous, Reexec() is weird, because we
- cannot delay the response properly until we are back, so instead of
- being properly synchronous we just keep open the fd and close it
- when done. That means clients do not get a successful method reply,
- but much rather a disconnect on success.
-
* properly handle loop back mounts via fstab, especially regards to fsck/passno
* initialize the hostname from the fs label of /, if /etc/hostname does not exist?
* rename "userspace" to "core-os"
-* load-fragment: when loading a unit file via a chain of symlinks
- verify that it is not masked via any of the names traversed.
-
-* introduce Type=pid-file
-
-* change Requires=basic.target to RequisiteOverride=basic.target
-
-* when breaking cycles drop sysv services first, then services from /run, then from /etc, then from /usr
-
-* ExecOnFailure=/usr/bin/foo
-
* udev:
- move to LGPL
- kill scsi_id
* 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
-* introduce mix of BindTo and Requisite
-
* There's currently no way to cancel fsck (used to be possible via C-c or c on the console)
* add option to sockets to avoid activation. Instead just drop packets/connections, see http://cyberelk.net/tim/2012/02/15/portreserve-systemd-solution/
-* default unix qlen is too small (10). bump sysctl? add sockopt?
-
-* save coredump in Windows/Mozilla minidump format
+* coredump:
+ - save coredump in Windows/Mozilla minidump format
+ - move PID 1 segfaults to /var/lib/systemd/coredump?
+ - make the handler check /proc/$PID/rlimits for RLIMIT_CORE,
+ and supress coredump if turned off. Then change RLIMIT_CORE to
+ infinity by default for all services. This then allows per-service
+ control of coredumping.
* support crash reporting operation modes (https://live.gnome.org/GnomeOS/Design/Whiteboards/ProblemReporting)
* be able to specify a forced restart of service A where service B depends on, in case B
needs to be auto-respawned?
-* when a bus name of a service disappears from the bus make sure to queue further activation requests
-
* tmpfiles:
- apply "x" on "D" too (see patch from William Douglas)
- replace F with f+.
- instead of ignoring unknown fields, reject them.

-* for services: do not set $HOME in services unless requested
-
-* hide PAM options in fragment parser when compile time disabled
-
-* when we automatically restart a service, ensure we restart its rdeps, too.
-
-* allow Type=simple with PIDFile=
- https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=723942
-
-* move PAM code into its own binary
-
-* implement Register= switch in .socket units to enable registration
- in Avahi, RPC and other socket registration services.
+ - creating new directories/subvolumes/fifos/device nodes
+ should not follow symlinks. None of the other adjustment or creation
+ calls follow symlinks.
* make sure systemd-ask-password-wall does not shutdown systemd-ask-password-console too early
-* add ReloadSignal= for configuring a reload signal to use
-
* verify that the AF_UNIX sockets of a service in the fs still exist
when we start a service in order to avoid confusion when a user
assumes starting a service is enough to make it accessible
* and a dbus call to generate target from current state
-* GC unreferenced jobs (such as .device jobs)
-
* write blog stories about:
- hwdb: what belongs into it, lsusb
- enabling dbus services
- instantiated apache, dovecot and so on
- hooking a script into various stages of shutdown/rearly booot
-* allow port=0 in .socket units
-
-* recreate systemd's D-Bus private socket file on SIGUSR2
-
-* Support --test based on current system state
-
* investigate whether the gnome pty helper should be moved into systemd, to provide cgroup support.
-* maybe introduce ExecRestartPre=
-
* dot output for --test showing the 'initial transaction'
* fingerprint.target, wireless.target, gps.target, netdevice.target
+* pid1:
+ - .timer units should optionally support CLOCK_BOOTTIME in addition to CLOCK_MONOTONIC
+ - When logging about multiple units (stopping BoundTo units, conflicts, etc.),
+ log both units as UNIT=, so that journalctl -u triggers on both.
+ - generate better errors when people try to set transient properties
+ that are not supported...
+ http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2015-February/028076.html
+ - maybe introduce WantsMountsFor=? Usecase:

+ - for services: do not set $HOME in services unless requested
+ - hide PAM options in fragment parser when compile time disabled
+ - Support --test based on current system state
+ - 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().
+ - after deserializing sockets in socket.c we should reapply sockopts and things
+ - make timer units go away after they elapsed
+ - drop PID 1 reloading, only do reexecing (difficult: Reload()
+ currently is properly synchronous, Reexec() is weird, because we
+ cannot delay the response properly until we are back, so instead of
+ being properly synchronous we just keep open the fd and close it
+ when done. That means clients do not get a successful method reply,
+ but much rather a disconnect on success.
+ - when breaking cycles drop sysv services first, then services from /run, then from /etc, then from /usr
+ - when a bus name of a service disappears from the bus make sure to queue further activation requests
+
+* unit files:
+ - allow port=0 in .socket units
+ - maybe introduce ExecRestartPre=
+ - add ReloadSignal= for configuring a reload signal to use
+ - implement Register= switch in .socket units to enable registration
+ in Avahi, RPC and other socket registration services.
+ - allow Type=simple with PIDFile=
+ https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=723942
+ - allow writing multiple conditions in unit files on one line
+ - load-fragment: when loading a unit file via a chain of symlinks
+ verify that it is not masked via any of the names traversed.
+ - introduce Type=pid-file
+ - ExecOnFailure=/usr/bin/foo
+ - introduce mix of BindTo and Requisite
+ - add a concept of RemainAfterExit= to scope units
+ - Set NoNewPrivileges= on all of our own services, where that makes sense
+ - Allow multiple ExecStart= for all Type= settings, so that we can cover rescue.service nicely
+ - consider adding RuntimeDirectoryUser= + RuntimeDirectoryGroup=
+
* systemd-python:
- figure out a simple way to wait for journal events in a way that
works with ^C
- add Scope= parsing option for [Network]
- properly handle routerless dhcp leases
- add more attribute support for SIT tunnel
- - work with non-ethernet devices
+ - work with non-Ethernet devices
- add support for more bond options
+ - dhcp: do we allow configuring dhcp routes on interfaces that are not the one we got the dhcp info from?
+ - add LLDP client side support
+ - the DHCP lease data (such as NTP/DNS) is still made available when
+ a carrier is lost on a link. It should be removed instantly.
+ - expose in the API the following bits:
+ - option 15, domain name and/or option 119, search list
+ - option 12, host name and/or option 81, fqdn
+ - option 123, 144, geolocation
+ - option 252, configure http proxy (PAC/wpad)
+ - provide a way to define a per-network interface default metric value
+ for all routes to it. possibly a second default for DHCP routes.
+ - allow Name= to be specified repeatedly in the [Match] section. Maybe also
+ support Name=foo*|bar*|baz ?
+ - duplicate address check for static IPs (like ARPCHECK in network-scripts)
+ - allow DUID/IAID to be customized, see issue #394.
+ - support configuration option for TSO (tcp segmentation offload)
+ - whenever uplink info changes, make DHCP server send out FORCERENEW
* networkd-wait-online:
- make operstates to wait for configurable?
* drop accountsservice's StandardOutput=syslog and Type=dbus fields
-* dbus upstream still refers to dbus.target and should not
-
* dbus: in fedora, make /var/lib/dbus/machine-id a symlink to /etc/machine-id
-* add "# export SYSTEMD_PAGER=" to bash login
-
* /usr/bin/service should actually show the new command line
* 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=
* use secure_getenv() instead of getenv() where appropriate
* link up selected blog stories from man pages and unit files Documentation= fields
-
-Scheduled for removal or fixing:
-
-* xxxOverridable dependencies (probably: fix)
