3 * swap units that are activated by one name but shown in the kernel under another are semi-broken
5 * NM should pull in network.target (PENDING)
6 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=692008
8 * make anaconda write timeout=0 for encrypted devices
10 * service: pid file reading after reload doesn't work, since we don't reset the pid variable
12 * make sure timeouts are applied to Type=oneshot services.
14 * Dangling symlinks of .automount unit files in .wants/ directories, set up
15 automount points even when the original .automount file did not exist
16 anymore. Only the .mount unit was still around.
18 * make polkit checks async
20 * properly handle .mount unit state tracking when two mount points are stacked one on top of another on the exact same mount point.
24 * write RPM spec macros for presets
26 * write man pages for systemd-cgtop, systemd-cat
28 * journal: write man pages for API
30 * journal: OR matches are borked
32 * journal: extend hash tables as we go
34 * journal: API for looking for retrieving "all values of this field"
36 * journal: deal nicely with byte-by-byte copied files, especially regards header
38 * journal: local deserializer of export mode, http server
40 * journal: message catalog
42 * journal: forward-secure signatures
44 * document the exit codes when services fail before they are exec()ed
46 * rework namespace support, don't use pivot_root, and mount things after creating the namespace, not before
48 * systemctl journal command
50 * journalctl: --cursor support, priority filtering
52 * systemctl status: show coredumps
54 * systemctl status: show whether journal was rotated since service started
56 * save coredump in Windows/Mozilla minidump format
58 * support crash reporting operation modes (https://live.gnome.org/GnomeOS/Design/Whiteboards/ProblemReporting)
60 * allow per-entry control on /var vs. /run (think incognito browser mode)
62 * clean up session cgroups that remain after logout (think sshd), but eventually run empty
64 * support "systemctl stop foobar@.service" to stop all units matching a certain template
68 * logind: selinux is borked...
70 * logind: allow showing logout dialog from system
72 * document that %% can be used to write % in a string that is specifier extended
74 * check utf8 everywhere
76 * when an instanced service exits, remove its parent cgroup too if possible.
78 * Make libselinux, libattr, libcap, libdl dependencies only of the tools which actually need them.
80 * as Tom Gundersen pointed out there's a always a dep loop if people use crypto file systems with random keys
82 * unset container= in PID1?
84 * automatically escape unit names passed on the service (i.e. think "systemctl start serial-getty.service@serial/by-path/jshdfjsdfhkjh" being automatically escaped as necessary.
86 * if we can not get user quota for tmpfs, mount a separate tmpfs instance
87 for every user in /run/user/$USER with a configured maximum size
89 * default to actual 32bit PIDs, via /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max
91 * add an option to make mounts private/shareable and so on, enable this for root by default
93 * internal restart counter for units (focus on auto-respawn)
95 * finer-grained auto-respawn settings (rate-limit)
97 * be able to specify a forced restart of service A where service B depends on, in case B
98 needs to be auto-respawned?
100 * Something is wrong with symlink handling of "autovt@.service" in "systemctl list-unit-files"
102 * when a bus name of a service disappears from the bus make sure to queue further activation requests
104 * something like ConditionExec= or ExecStartPre= without failure state
106 * service restart retry configuration
108 * tmpfiles: apply "x" on "D" too (see patch from William Douglas)
110 * don't set $HOME in services unless requested
112 * hide PAM/TCPWrap options in fragment parser when compile time disabled
114 * when we automatically restart a service, ensure we retsart its rdeps, too.
116 * allow Type=simple with PIDFile=
117 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=723942
119 * move PAM code into its own binary
121 * warn if the user stops a service but not its associated socket
123 * logind: spawn user@..service on login
125 * logind: non-local X11 server handling
127 * implement Register= switch in .socket units to enable registration
128 in Avahi, RPC and other socket registration services.
130 * make sure systemd-ask-password-wall does not shutdown systemd-ask-password-console too early
132 * readahead: use BTRFS_IOC_DEFRAG_RANGE instead of BTRFS_IOC_DEFRAG ioctl, with START_IO
134 * readahead: check whether a btrfs volume includes ssd by checking mount flag "ssd"
136 * support sd_notify() style notification when reload begins (RELOADING=1), reload is finished (READY=1), and add ReloadSignal= then to use in combination
138 * support sd_notify() style notification when shutting down, to make auto-exit bus services work (STOPPING=1)
140 * verify that the AF_UNIX sockets of a service in the fs still exist
141 when we start a service in order to avoid confusion when a user
142 assumes starting a service is enough to make it accessible
144 * Make it possible to set the keymap independently from the font on
145 the kernel cmdline. Right now setting one resets also the other.
147 * move nss-myhostname into systemd
149 * and a dbus call to generate target from current state
151 * drop /.readahead on bigger upgrades with yum
153 * add inode nr check to readahead to suppress preloading changed files
155 * add support for /bin/mount -s
157 * GC unreferenced jobs (such as .device jobs)
159 * cgroup_notify_empty(): recursively check groups up the tree, too
161 * when failing to start a service due to ratelimiting, try again later, if restart=always is set
163 * write blog stories about:
164 - enabling dbus services
166 - how to make changes to sysctl and sysfs attributes
168 - how to pass throw-away units to systemd, or dynamically change properties of existing units
169 - how to integrate cgconfig and suchlike with systemd
171 * allow port=0 in .socket units
173 * move readahead files into /var, look for them with .path units
175 * teach dbus to activate all services it finds in /etc/systemd/services/org-*.service
177 * support systemd.mask= on the kernel command line.
179 * when key file cannot be found, read it from kbd in cryptsetup
181 * reuse mkdtemp namespace dirs in /tmp?
183 * recreate systemd's D-Bus private socket file on SIGUSR2
185 * Support --test based on current system state
187 * investigate whether the gnome pty helper should be moved into systemd, to provide cgroup support.
189 * maybe introduce ExecRestartPre=
191 * configurable jitter for timer events
193 * timer events with system resume
195 * timer events on calendar time
197 * dot output for --test showing the 'initial transaction'
199 * calendar time support in timer, iCalendar semantics for the timer stuff (RFC2445)

202 * implicitly import "defaults" settings file into all types
203 * exec settings override
204 * writable cgroups dbus properties for live changes
206 * read config fragments for all units from /lib/systemd/system/foobar.service.d/ to override/extend specific settings
208 * port over to LISTEN_FDS/LISTEN_PID:
209 - rpcbind (/var/run/rpcbind.sock!) HAVEPATCH
213 - libvirtd (/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock-ro)
214 - bluetoothd (/var/run/sdp! @/org/bluez/audio!)
217 * auditd service files
219 * fingerprint.target, wireless.target, gps.target, netdevice.target
221 * io priority during initialization
223 * if a service fails too often, make the service enter failed mode, and the socket, too.
225 * systemctl list-jobs - show dependencies
227 * add systemctl switch to dump transaction without executing it
229 * suspend, resume support?
231 * drop cap bounding set in readahead and other services
236 - get process transport into dbus for systemctl -P/-H (PENDING)
238 - natively watch for dbus-*.service symlinks (PENDING)
239 - allow specification of socket mode/umask when allocating DBusServer
240 - allow disabling of fd passing when connecting a AF_UNIX connection
241 - allow disabling of UID passing for AUTH EXTERNAL
244 PR_SET_CHILD_REAPER patch: https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/7/28/426
246 * fix alsa mixer restore to not print error when no config is stored
248 * udisks should not use udisks-part-id, instead use blkid. also not probe /dev/loopxxx
250 * snd-seq should go, https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=676095
252 * gnome-shell python script/glxinfo/is-accelerated must die
254 * make cryptsetup lower --iter-time
256 * patch kernel for xattr support in /dev, /proc/, /sys and /sys/fs/cgroup?
258 * NTP: the kernel's 11-minutes-mode syncs the system time to the RTC, but only
259 in an ~30 minutes window. It does not adjust larger differences. Find a way
260 to tell the kernel, to always do a full time sync when the RTC is in UTC and
261 we are in 11-minutes-mode. When we trust the system time to NTP we also want
264 * patch kernel for cpu feature modalias for autoloading aes/kvm/...
265 (patches in linux-next, on the way to the next kernel)
267 * kernel: add /proc/sys file exposing CAP_LAST_CAP? sysconf?
268 merged: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git;a=commit;h=73efc0394e148d0e15583e13712637831f926720
270 * kernel: add device_type = "fb", "fbcon" to class "graphics"
274 * look for close() vs. close_nointr() vs. close_nointr_nofail()
276 * check for strerror(r) instead of strerror(-r)
278 * Use PR_SET_PROCTITLE_AREA if it becomes available in the kernel
280 * %m in printf() instead of strerror();
284 * set_put(), hashmap_put() return values check. i.e. == 0 doesn't free()!
