str_split_quoted() should return a real return code, so spawn_child can
report the failure properly.
+* udev_set_log_priority should verify the value before saving it.
+
External:
* Fedora: add an rpmlint check that verifies that all unit files in the RPM are listed in %systemd_post macros.
Features:
+* logind: when the power button is pressed short, just popup a logout dialog. If it is pressed for 1s, do the usual shutdown. Inspiration are Macs here.
+
* optionally support running journald from the command line for testing purposes in external projects
* journald: allow per-priority and per-service retention times when rotating/vacuuming
* PID 1 doesn't apply nspawns devices cgroup policy
-* rework journal-send.c to use memfds for large blobs if they are available instead of unlinked files in /tmp. Also, if we detect that the kernel knows memfds, refuse anything but sealed memfds.
-
* 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
cannot pass into sendmsg() of the AF_UNIX sokcet (which only accepts
253 messages)
-* busctl: add a pcap writer, using LINKTYPE_DBUS/231
-
* man: maybe use the word "inspect" rather than "introspect"?
* introduce machines.target to order after all nspawn instances
* support empty /etc boots nicely:
- nspawn/gpt-generator: introduce new gpt partition type for /usr
- fstab-generator: support systemd.volatile=yes|no|state on the kernel cmdline, too, similar to nspawn's --volatile=
- - fstab-generator: add support for usr= in addition to root= on the kernel cmdline
* generator that automatically discovers btrfs subvolumes, identifies their purpose based on some xattr on them.
ReadOnlyDirectories=... for whitelisting files for a service.
* sd-bus:
+ - kdbus: maybe add euid, egid, fsuid, fsgid, controlling tty and ppid metadata fields
+ - see if we can introduce a new sd_bus_get_owner_machine_id() call to retrieve the machine ID of the machine of the bus itself
- when kdbus does not take our message without memfds, try again with memfds
- systemd-bus-proxyd needs to enforce good old XML policy
- allow updating attach flags during runtime
* maybe add a generator that looks for "systemd.run=" on the kernel cmdline for container usercases...
-* timedatectl: print a nicer message when enabling ntp fails because ntpd/chrony are not installed
-
* cgtop: make cgtop useful in a container
* test/:
* think about window-manager-run-as-user-service problem: exit 0 → activate shutdown.target; exit != 0 → restart service
-* use "log level" rather than "log priority" everywhere
-
* merge unit_kill_common() and unit_kill_context()
* introduce ExecCondition= in services
* service: watchdog logic: for testing purposes allow ping, but do not require pong
* journal:
+ - consider introducing implicit _TTY= + _PPID= + _EUID= + _EGID= + _FSUID= + _FSGID= fields
- import and delete pstore filesystem content at startup
- journald: also get thread ID from client, plus thread name
- journal: when waiting for journal additions in the client always sleep at least 1s or so, in order to minimize wakeups
- journal-send.c, log.c: when the log socket is clogged, and we drop, count this and write a message about this when it gets unclogged again.
- journal: find a way to allow dropping history early, based on priority, other rules
- journal: When used on NFS, check payload hashes
- - journald: check whether it is OK if the client can still modify delivered journal entries
- journal live copy, based on libneon (client) and libmicrohttpd (server)
- journald: add kernel cmdline option to disable ratelimiting for debug purposes
- refuse taking lower-case variable names in sd_journal_send() and friends.
- journald: we currently rotate only after MaxUse+MaxFilesize has been reached.
- journal: deal nicely with byte-by-byte copied files, especially regards header
- - journal: store euid in journal if it differs from uid
- journal: sanely deal with entries which are larger than the individual file size, but where the components would fit
- Replace utmp, wtmp, btmp, and lastlog completely with journal
- journalctl: instead --after-cursor= maybe have a --cursor=XYZ+1 syntax?
- - tmpfiles: when applying ownership to /run/log/journal, also do this for the journal fails contained in it
- when a kernel driver logs in a tight loop, we should ratelimit that too.
- journald: optionally, log debug messages to /run but everything else to /var
- journald: when we drop syslog messages because the syslog socket is
- 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
-* update the kernel's TZ (sys_tz) when DST changes
-
-* sync down the system time to the RTC when:
- - CLOCK_REALTIME makes jumps (the user explicitely requested a time set)
- - DST/timezone changes && ntp is active && RTC-in-localtime (never do it without ntp)
- This takes care of syncing ntpdate updates to the RTC, and DST updates for localtime
- mode, it will never touch the RTC if the no reliable time source is active or the
- user did not request anything like it.
-
* 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().
* and a dbus call to generate target from current state
-* readahead:
- - drop /.readahead on bigger upgrades with yum
- - move readahead files into /var (look for them with .path units?)
- - readahead: use BTRFS_IOC_DEFRAG_RANGE instead of BTRFS_IOC_DEFRAG ioctl, with START_IO
- - readahead: when bumping /sys readahead variable save mtime and compare later to detect changes
- - readahead: make use of EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT, as used by http://e4rat.sourceforge.net/
-
* GC unreferenced jobs (such as .device jobs)
* write blog stories about:
* fingerprint.target, wireless.target, gps.target, netdevice.target
-* drop cap bounding set in readahead and other services
-
* systemd-python:
- figure out a simple way to wait for journal events in a way that
works with ^C
