Bugfixes:
+* Should systemctl status \* work on all unit types, not just .service?
+
* enabling an instance unit creates a pointless link, and
the unit will be started with getty@getty.service:
$ systemctl enable getty@.service
* systemctl --root=container/ set-default ... is totally borked.
+* sd_bus_unref() is broken regarding self-references and "pseudo thread-safety".
+ See the comment in sd_bus_unref() for more..
+
External:
* Fedora: when installing fedora with yum --installroot /var/run is a directory, not a symlink
Features:
+* figure out a nice way how we can let the admin know what child/sibling unit causes cgroup membership for a specific unit
+
+* add a kernel command line option to enable the debug shell
+
+* journalctl: add the ability to look for the most recent process of a binary. journalctl /usr/bin/X11 --pid=-1 or so...
+
+* set NOTIFY_SOCKET also for control processes
+
+* drop parsing of chkconfig header lines from service.c
+
+* mount_cgroup_controllers(): symlinks need to get the label applied
+
+* For timer units: add some mechanisms so that timer units that trigger immediately on boot don't have the services they run added to the initial transaction and thus confuse Type=idle. Alternatively, split up the boot-up state into two, and make Type=idle only be affected by jobs for the default target, but ignore any further jobs
+
+* Add RPM macros for registering/unregistering binfmt drop-ins
+
+* Add timeout to early-boot, and shut down the system if it is hit. Solves the laptop-in-bag problem and is useful for embedded cases
+
+* sd-resolve: add callback api
+
+* ImmutableSystem=yes/no or so to mount /usr, /boot read-only/invisible, and leave /var and /etc writable
+
+* InaccessibleHome=yes/no or so to hide /home and /run/user from a service
+
+* Run most system services with cgroupfs read-only and procfs with a more secure mode
+
+* sd-event: generate a failure of a default event loop is executed out-of-thread
+
+* add "M" as recursive version of "m" to tmpfiles, then use it for
+ chowning /run/log/journal (but not /var/log/journal), so that we
+ adjust the perms of journal files created before tmpfiles ran.
+
+* expose "Locked" property on logind sesison objects
+
+* 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?
+ - Make /home automount rather than mount?
+
* improve journalctl performance by loading journal files
lazily. Encode just enough information in the file name, so that we
don't have to open it to know that it is not interesting for us, for
* support transient mount units
-* Imply DevicePolicy=closed when PrivateDevices= is used
-
* add an "input" group to udev logic and add all input devices to it
-* libsystemd-login: implement getpeer_unit(), get_peer_slice(), ...
-
* machined: provide calls GetMachineByAddress() on the manager
interface to get the machine for a local IP address, and
GetAddress() on the Machine interface to get the Address for a
* "busctl status" works only as root on dbus1, since we cannot read
/proc/$PID/exe
-* systemctl (and possibly related tools): support a new switch that
- allows enumerating units in local containers recursively. "systemctl
- list-units -R" or so should not only lists on the host, but also the
- services in all containers in a pretty way, to give an overview of
- the entire system. Also, maybe add "systemctl list-machines" which
- works like "machinectl list" but includes information about the
- health status of each registered machine. For that we should
- probably implement something that encodes the system health status
- in a single enum state, i.e. something like a system-wide state
- starting → running → failed → stopping, that is based on the current
- job queue and a check for failed services. Maybe then change
- "systemctl status" without args to output this state along with a
- selection of other data, such as the uptime or so.
-
* implement Distribute= in socket units to allow running multiple
service instances processing the listening socket, and open this up
for ReusePort=
-* add a timelimit to generator invocation
-
* socket units: support creating sockets in different namespace,
opening it up for JoinsNamespaceOf=. This would require to fork off
a tiny process that joins the namespace and creates/binds the socket
on screen, not unlike how job control works on the shell
* completions:
- - busctl zsh completion is outdated
- - systemd-nspawn -Z/-L/-q is missing for zsh
- manager property enumeration was broken when systemd moved to /usr/lib/
* cgroups:
Maybe take a BSD lock at the disk device node and teach udev to
check for that and suppress event handling.
-* something pulls in pcre as shared object dependency into our daemons such as hostnamed.
-
* allow implementation of InaccessibleDirectories=/ plus
ReadOnlyDirectories=... for whitelisting files for a service.
* sd-bus:
+ - make AddMatch calls on dbus1 transports async
- when kdbus doesn't take our message without memfds, try again with memfds
- - implement monitor logic
+ - systemd-bus-proxyd needs to enforce good old XML policy
+ - port exit-on-idle logic to byebye ioctl
+ - allow updating attach flags during runtime
+ - pid1: peek into activating message when activating a service
+ - introduce sd_bus_emit_object_added()/sd_bus_emit_object_removed() that automatically includes the build-in interfaces in the list
+ - constructors for bus messages should probably not be OK with a NULL bus pointer
+ - .busname units should not use get_user_creds()/get_cgroup_creds() but instead do NSS only in temporarily forked off child
- see if we can drop more message validation on the sending side
- add API to clone sd_bus_message objects
- - systemd-bus-proxyd needs to enforce good old XML policy
- - upload minimal kdbus policy into the kernel at boot
- kdbus: matches against source or destination pids for an "strace -p"-like feel. Problem: The PID info needs to be available in userspace too...
- longer term: priority inheritance
- - check sender of response messages
- dbus spec updates:
- kdbus mapping
- NameLost/NameAcquired obsolete
- GVariant
- "const" properties (posted)
- - port exit-on-idle logic to byebye ioctl
+ - path escaping
- update systemd.special(7) to mention that dbus.socket is only about the compatibility socket now
- - allow updating attach flags during runtime
- - pid1: peek into activating message when activating a service
- test bloom filter generation indexes
- - introduce sd_bus_emit_object_added()/sd_bus_emit_object_removed() that automatically includes the build-in interfaces in the list
- port to sd-resolve for connecting to TCP dbus servers
- - constructors for bus messages should probably not be OK with a NULL bus pointer
* sd-event
- allow multiple signal handlers per signal?
* after all byte-wise realloc() is slow, even on glibc, so i guess we
need manual exponential loops after all
-* 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.
+* BootLoaderSpec: Clarify that the kernel has to be in $BOOT. Clarify

+ is installed.
* think about requeuing jobs when daemon-reload is issued? usecase:
the initrd issues a reload after fstab from the host is accessible
- logind: wakelock/opportunistic suspend support
- Add pretty name for seats in logind
- logind: allow showing logout dialog from system?
- - logind: add equivalent to sd_pid_get_owner_uid() to the D-Bus API
- we should probably handle SIGTERM/SIGINT to not leave dot files around, just in case
- - when logging out, remove user-owned sysv and posix IPC objects
- session scopes/user unit: add RequiresMountsFor for the home directory of the user
- add Suspend() bus calls which take timestamps to fix double suspend issues when somebody hits suspend and closes laptop quickly.
- if pam_systemd is invoked by su from a process that is outside of a
- rework wait filter to not require match callback
- better error message if you run systemctl without systemd running
- systemctl status output should should include list of triggering units and their status
- - in systemctl list-timers show time triggering units ran last
* unit install:
- "systemctl mask" should find all names by which a unit is accessible
* deal with sendmail/postfix exclusivity
* timer units:
- - timer events with system resume
- timer units should get the ability to trigger when:
o CLOCK_REALTIME makes jumps (TFD_TIMER_CANCEL_ON_SET)
o DST changes
- calendarspec: support value ranges with ".." notation. Example: 2013-4..8-1
- when parsing calendar timestamps support the UTC timezone (even if we won't support arbitrary timezone specs, support UTC itself certainly makes sense), also support syntaxes such as +0200
- Modulate timer frequency based on battery state
- - anacron-like feature
* update the kernel's TZ (sys_tz) when DST changes
* currently x-systemd.timeout is lost in the initrd, since crypttab is copied into dracut, but fstab isn't
* nspawn:
- - nspawn: consider changing users for -u with /usr/bin/getent, so that NSS resolving works correctly
- nspawn: --read-only is not applied recursively to submounts
- bind mount read-only the cgroup tree higher than nspawn
- nspawn: make it work for dwalsh and shared /usr containers -- tmpfs mounts as command line parameters
- refuses to boot containers without /etc/machine-id (OK?), and with empty /etc/machine-id (not OK).
- support taking a btrfs snapshot at startup and dropping it afterwards
- maybe: hookup nspawn and PrivateNetwork=yes with "ip netns"
- - allow booting disk images with a GPT signature using the bootloaderspec partition uuids
- generate predictable mac addresses for the netdev we create (host0), maybe based on guest's machine
name and machine-id of host (?)
* for services: don't set $HOME in services unless requested
-* hide PAM/TCPWrap options in fragment parser when compile time disabled
+* hide PAM options in fragment parser when compile time disabled
* when we automatically restart a service, ensure we restart its rdeps, too.
- Make sure ID_PATH is always exported and complete for
network devices where possible, so we can safely rely
on Path= matching
+ - check MTUBytes parsing (expecting size_t but we are using unsigned)
* sd-rtnl:
- - add support for exiting containers without reading them fully first
- add support for more attribute types
+ - inbuilt piping support (essentially degenerate async)? see loopback-setup.c and other places
* networkd:
- add more keys to [Route] and [Address] sections
- add support for more DHCPv4 options (and, longer term, other kinds of dynamic config)
+ - send hostname to DHCP server
- add proper initrd support (in particular generate .network/.link files based on /proc/cmdline)
- add reduced [Link] support to .network files
- - add IPv4LL tests (inspire by DHCP)
- add Scope= parsing option for [Network]
- - change LL address generation and make it predictable like get_mac() (link-config.c)
- - have smooth transition from LL to routable address, without disconnecting clients.
+ - properly handle routerless dhcp leases
+ - set lifetime on the address acquired from dhcp
+ - add veth netdev support (c.f. http://shorewall.net/bridge-Shorewall-perl.html#veth)
External:
+* NM: figure out what to do about network-online.target.
+ - maybe pull in the target as dependency for LSB initscripts ordered now after network.target
+ - https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=728965
+
* dbus:
- natively watch for dbus-*.service symlinks (PENDING)
- teach dbus to activate all services it finds in /etc/systemd/services/org-*.service
* fedora: update policy to declare access mode and ownership of unit files to root:root 0644, and add an rpmlint check for it
+* register catalog database signature as file magic
+
Regularly:
* look for close() vs. close_nointr() vs. close_nointr_nofail()
