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.
20 * file bugs against KDE/... to take the new key inhibitor locks
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 * rename "userspace" to "core-os"
137 * systemctl: "Journal has been rotated since unit was started." message is misleading
139 * syscall filter: add knowledge about compat syscalls
141 * syscall filter: don't enforce no new privs?
143 * syscall filter: option to return EPERM rather than SIGSYS?
145 * syscall filter: port to libseccomp
147 * logind: wakelock/opportunistic suspend support
149 * systemd-analyze post-boot is broken for initrd
151 * man: clarify that time-sync.target is not only sysv compat but also useful otherwise. Same for similar targets
153 * .device aliases need to be implemented with the "following" logic, probably.
155 * refuse taking lower-case variable names in sd_journal_send() and friends.
157 * load-fragment: when loading a unit file via a chain of symlinks
158 verify that it isn't masked via any of the names traversed.
160 * journald: we currently rotate only after MaxUse+MaxFilesize has been reached.
165 * introduce Type=pid-file
167 * systemctl list-unit-files appears to be broken for symlinked units in /usr/lib
169 * maybe allow services with ExecStop= set, but no ExecStart=?
171 * efi: implement /forcefsck as uefi variables thus not requiring file system altering to trigger a file system check
173 * efi: honour language efi variables for default language selection
175 * efi: honour timezone efi variables for default timezone selection
177 * efi: automatically mount EFI partition to /boot if no such entry exists in /etc/fstab and /boot is empty
178 gummiboot exports the EFI system partion (ESP) device:
179 /sys/firmware/efi/vars/LoaderDeviceIdentifier-4a67b082-0a4c-41cf-b6c7-440b29bb8c4f/data
180 Acpi(PNP0A03,0)/Pci(1F|2)/?/HD(Part1,Sig1FCBC57F-4BFC-4C2B-91A3-9C84FBCD9AF1)
181 '/' is the separator for the device path list
182 HD(Part1,Sig1FCBC57F-4BFC-4C2B-91A3-9C84FBCD9AF1) contains the GPT UUID of the ESP
184 * read the bootloader performance data (raw TSC) in systemd-analyze
185 /sys/firmware/efi/vars/LoaderTicksExec-4a67b082-0a4c-41cf-b6c7-440b29bb8c4f/data
187 /sys/firmware/efi/vars/LoaderTicksInit-4a67b082-0a4c-41cf-b6c7-440b29bb8c4f/data
189 /sys/firmware/efi/vars/LoaderTicksStartMenu-4a67b082-0a4c-41cf-b6c7-440b29bb8c4f/data

200 * drop accountsservice's StandardOutput=syslog and Type=dbus fields
202 * when breaking cycles drop sysv services first, then services from /run, then from /etc, then from /usr
204 * readahead: when bumping /sys readahead variable save mtime and compare later to detect changes
206 * (attempt to) make Debianites happy:
207 - implement .d/ auto includes for unit files
208 - add syntax to reset ExecStart= lists (and similar)
210 * move passno parsing to fstab generator
212 * improve !/proc/*/loginuid situation: make /proc/*/loginuid less dependent on CONFIG_AUDIT,
213 or use the users cgroup information when /proc/*/loginuid is not available.
215 * pam_systemd: try to get old session id from cgroup, if audit sessionid cannot be determined
217 * pam: when leaving a session explicitly exclude the ReleaseSession() caller process from the killing spree
219 * maybe introduce ~/.config/locale.conf and apply it within PAM
221 * readahead: make use of EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT, as used by http://e4rat.sourceforge.net/
223 * automount: implement expire
225 * logind: auto-suspend, auto-shutdown:
226 IdleAction=(none|suspend|opportunistic|hibernate|poweroff)
228 SessionIdleMode=(explicit|ignore|login)
229 ForceShutdown=(yes|no)
231 * services which create their own subcgroups break cgroup-empty notification (needs to be fixed in the kernel)
233 * don't delete /tmp/systemd-namespace-* before a process is gone down
235 * vconsole: implement setterm -store -foreground xxx --background zzz

239 * fedora: make sshd and pam_loginuid work in nspawn containers
241 * fix utmp for console logins in containers
243 * Add pretty name for seats in logind
245 * ConditionSecurity= should learn about IMA
247 * Auke: merge Auke's bootchart
251 * udev systemd unify:
252 - strpcpy(), strpcpyl(), strscpy(), strscpyl()
253 - utf8 validator code
254 - now() vs. now_usec()
256 * udev: remove network interface renaming, sleep and retry logic, we do
257 no support renaming of interfaces in the conflicting kernel
260 * udev: find a way to tell udev to not cancel firmware requests when running in initramfs
262 * udev: scsi_id -> sg3_utils -> kill scsi_id
264 * udev: add trigger --subsystem-match=usb/usb_device device
266 * allow configuration of console width/height in vconsole.conf
268 * cleanup syslog 'priority' vs. 'level' wording
270 * dbus upstream still refers to dbus.target and shouldn't
272 * 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
274 * support container_ttys=
276 * introduce mix of BindTo and Requisite
278 * journalctl: show multiline log messages sanely, expand tabs, and show all valid utf8 messages
280 * add DeleteSocketsOnStop=yes|no option to socket units
282 * journal: store euid in journal if it differs from uid
284 * There's currently no way to cancel fsck (used to be possible via C-c or c on the console)

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

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

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

414 * when key file cannot be found, read it from kbd in cryptsetup
416 * reuse mkdtemp namespace dirs in /tmp?
418 * recreate systemd's D-Bus private socket file on SIGUSR2
420 * Support --test based on current system state
422 * investigate whether the gnome pty helper should be moved into systemd, to provide cgroup support.
424 * maybe introduce ExecRestartPre=
426 * configurable jitter for timer events
428 * timer events with system resume
430 * timer events on calendar time:
431 maybe use this time syntax? http://ohse.de/uwe/uschedule/uschedule.html
433 * dot output for --test showing the 'initial transaction'
435 * calendar time support in timer, iCalendar semantics for the timer stuff (RFC2445)
436 http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=99ee5315dac6211e972fa3f23bcc9a0343ff58c4
438 * implicitly import "defaults" settings file into all types
440 * writable cgroups dbus properties for live changes
442 * read config fragments for all units from /lib/systemd/system/foobar.service.d/ to override/extend specific settings
444 * port over to LISTEN_FDS/LISTEN_PID:
445 - rpcbind (/var/run/rpcbind.sock!) HAVEPATCH
449 - libvirtd (/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock-ro)
450 - bluetoothd (/var/run/sdp! @/org/bluez/audio!)
453 * fingerprint.target, wireless.target, gps.target, netdevice.target
455 * io priority during initialization
457 * systemctl list-jobs - show dependencies
459 * add systemctl switch to dump transaction without executing it
461 * drop cap bounding set in readahead and other services
467 - natively watch for dbus-*.service symlinks (PENDING)
468 - allow specification of socket mode/umask when allocating DBusServer
469 - allow disabling of fd passing when connecting a AF_UNIX connection
470 - allow disabling of UID passing for AUTH EXTERNAL
471 - always pass cred data along each message
473 * fix alsa mixer restore to not print error when no config is stored
475 * gnome-shell python script/glxinfo/is-accelerated must die
477 * make cryptsetup lower --iter-time
479 * patch kernel for xattr support in /dev, /proc/, /sys and /sys/fs/cgroup?
481 * NTP: the kernel's 11-minutes-mode syncs the system time to the RTC, but only
482 in an ~30 minutes window. It does not adjust larger differences. Find a way
483 to tell the kernel, to always do a full time sync when the RTC is in UTC and
484 we are in 11-minutes-mode. When we trust the system time to NTP we also want
487 * kernel: add device_type = "fb", "fbcon" to class "graphics"
491 * look for close() vs. close_nointr() vs. close_nointr_nofail()
493 * check for strerror(r) instead of strerror(-r)
495 * Use PR_SET_PROCTITLE_AREA if it becomes available in the kernel
497 * %m in printf() instead of strerror(errno);
501 * set_put(), hashmap_put() return values check. i.e. == 0 doesn't free()!
503 * use secure_getenv() instead of getenv() where appropriate
505 Scheduled for removal (or fixing):
507 * xxxOverridable dependencies
