2 * fix Fedora's cups.rpm to use tmpfiles instead of /lib/udev/devices/
4 * do not link selinux and attr against all binaries
6 * swap units that are activated by one name but shown in the kernel under another are semi-broken
8 * make anaconda write timeout=0 for encrypted devices
10 * make sure timeouts are applied to Type=oneshot services.
12 * Dangling symlinks of .automount unit files in .wants/ directories, set up
13 automount points even when the original .automount file did not exist
14 anymore. Only the .mount unit was still around.
16 * make polkit checks async
18 * properly handle .mount unit state tracking when two mount points are stacked one on top of another on the exact same mount point.
21 * start polkit agent in systemctl, similar to the password agent, to allow
22 gaining authorizations for privileged operations by entering a password:

30 * udev: find a way to tell udev to not cancel firmware requests in initramfs
32 * udev: scsi_id -> sg3_utils?
34 * udev: add trigger --subsystem-match=usb/usb_device
37 - remove deprecated symbols
38 - use symbol versioning
39 - return object with *_unref()
40 - kill: udev_monitor_from_socket()
41 - kill: udev_queue_get_failed_list_entry()
43 * allow configuration of console width/height in vconsole.conf
45 * PrivateTmp should apply to both /tmp and /var/tmp
47 * fstab should take priority over units in /usr
49 * cleanup syslog 'priority' vs. 'level' wording
51 * journal: if mmap() fails for mapping window try to unmap a a few older maps
53 * add flag file for shutdownd so that clients can check whether a shutdown is queued
55 * dbus upstream still refers to dbus.target and shouldn't
57 * 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
59 * add man page documenting all kernel cmdline options, including stuff like fsck.mode=
61 * show getty in container mode, not sulogin
63 * support container_ttys=
65 * journald: make configurable "store-on-var", "store-on-run", "dont-store", "auto"
66 (store-persistent, store-volatile?)
68 * Add ConditionReadWriteFileSystem= so that systemd-sysctl doesn't get executed when /proc/sys is read-only
70 * unset container= and container_uuid= for child processes
72 * when bind mounting /etc/machine-id, do so from /run/machine-id
74 * introduce mix of BindTo and Requisite
76 * journalctl: show multiline log messages sanely, expand tabs, and show all valid utf8 messages
78 * introduce NeedsMounts= or so to create .mount dependencies automatically for a specific path
80 * add DeleteSocketsOnStop=yes|no option to socket units
82 * add shutdown inhibit API for usage by libvirt and friends
84 * journal: store euid in journal if it differs from uid
86 * support chrony in addition to ntpd in timedated
88 * document crypttab(5)
90 * There's currently no way to cancel fsck (used to be possible via C-c or c on the console)
92 * when dumping cgroup contents, include main/control PID of a service, explicitly
94 * keep an eye on https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=670100
96 * D-Bus: always pass cred data along each message
98 * journal: allow turning off logging entirely
100 * journal: sanely deal with entries which are larger than the individual file size, but where the componets would fit
102 * add command to systemctl to plot dependency graph as tree (see rhbz 795365)
104 * make logind reserve tty10 or so for text logins, so that gdm never picks it up
106 * add option to sockets to avoid activation. Instead just drop packets/connections, see http://cyberelk.net/tim/2012/02/15/portreserve-systemd-solution/
108 * isolate for getty is still broken, due to logind
110 * default unix qlen is too small (10). bump sysctl? add sockopt?
112 * support units generated by a generator and placed in /run/systemd/system/; the directory is
113 currently ignored because it is empty before the generatores are executed
115 * Possibly, detect whether SysV init scripts can do reloading by looking for "echo Usage:" lines
117 * figure out whether we should leave dbus around during shutdown
119 * add interface to allow immediate rotation of the journal, and even flushing.
121 * dbus: in fedora, make the machine a symlink to /etc/machine-id
123 * journald: reuse XZ context
125 * logind: add equivalent to sd_pid_get_owner_uid() to the D-Bus API

137 * journal: deal nicely with byte-by-byte copied files, especially regards header
139 * journal: local deserializer of export mode, http server
141 * journal: message catalog
143 * journal: forward-secure signatures
145 * document the exit codes when services fail before they are exec()ed
147 * rework namespace support, don't use pivot_root, and mount things after creating the namespace, not before
149 * systemctl journal command
151 * journalctl: --cursor support, priority filtering
153 * systemctl status: show coredumps
155 * systemctl status: show whether journal was rotated since service started
157 * save coredump in Windows/Mozilla minidump format
159 * support crash reporting operation modes (https://live.gnome.org/GnomeOS/Design/Whiteboards/ProblemReporting)
161 * journal: allow per-entry control on /var vs. /run (think incognito browser mode)
163 * clean up session cgroups that remain after logout (think sshd), but eventually run empty
165 * support "systemctl stop foobar@.service" to stop all units matching a certain template
169 * logind: allow showing logout dialog from system
171 * document that %% can be used to write % in a string that is specifier extended
173 * when an instanced service exits, remove its parent cgroup too if possible.
175 * Make libselinux, libattr, libcap, libdl dependencies only of the tools which actually need them.
177 * as Tom Gundersen pointed out there's a always a dep loop if people use crypto file systems with random keys
179 * unset container=, container_uuid= in PID1?
181 * 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.
183 * if we can not get user quota for tmpfs, mount a separate tmpfs instance
184 for every user in /run/user/$USER with a configured maximum size
186 * default to actual 32bit PIDs, via /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max
188 * add an option to make mounts private/shareable and so on, enable this for root by default
190 * be able to specify a forced restart of service A where service B depends on, in case B
191 needs to be auto-respawned?
193 * Something is wrong with symlink handling of "autovt@.service" in "systemctl list-unit-files"
195 * when a bus name of a service disappears from the bus make sure to queue further activation requests
197 * something like ConditionExec= or ExecStartPre= without failure state
199 * tmpfiles: apply "x" on "D" too (see patch from William Douglas)
201 * don't set $HOME in services unless requested
203 * hide PAM/TCPWrap options in fragment parser when compile time disabled
205 * when we automatically restart a service, ensure we restart its rdeps, too.
207 * allow Type=simple with PIDFile=
208 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=723942
210 * move PAM code into its own binary
212 * warn if the user stops a service but not its associated socket
214 * logind: spawn user@..service on login
216 * logind: non-local X11 server handling
218 * implement Register= switch in .socket units to enable registration
219 in Avahi, RPC and other socket registration services.
221 * make sure systemd-ask-password-wall does not shutdown systemd-ask-password-console too early
223 * readahead: use BTRFS_IOC_DEFRAG_RANGE instead of BTRFS_IOC_DEFRAG ioctl, with START_IO
225 * readahead: check whether a btrfs volume includes ssd by checking mount flag "ssd"
227 * support sd_notify() style notification when reload begins (RELOADING=1), reload is finished (READY=1), and add ReloadSignal= then to use in combination
229 * support sd_notify() style notification when shutting down, to make auto-exit bus services work (STOPPING=1)
231 * verify that the AF_UNIX sockets of a service in the fs still exist
232 when we start a service in order to avoid confusion when a user
233 assumes starting a service is enough to make it accessible
235 * Make it possible to set the keymap independently from the font on
236 the kernel cmdline. Right now setting one resets also the other.
238 * move nss-myhostname into systemd
240 * and a dbus call to generate target from current state
242 * drop /.readahead on bigger upgrades with yum
244 * add inode nr check to readahead to suppress preloading changed files
246 * add support for /bin/mount -s
248 * GC unreferenced jobs (such as .device jobs)
250 * when failing to start a service due to ratelimiting, try again later, if restart=always is set
252 * write blog stories about:
253 - enabling dbus services
255 - how to make changes to sysctl and sysfs attributes
257 - how to pass throw-away units to systemd, or dynamically change properties of existing units
258 - how to integrate cgconfig and suchlike with systemd
259 - resource control in systemd
261 * allow port=0 in .socket units
263 * move readahead files into /var, look for them with .path units
265 * teach dbus to activate all services it finds in /etc/systemd/services/org-*.service
267 * support systemd.mask= on the kernel command line.
269 * when key file cannot be found, read it from kbd in cryptsetup
271 * reuse mkdtemp namespace dirs in /tmp?
273 * recreate systemd's D-Bus private socket file on SIGUSR2
275 * Support --test based on current system state
277 * investigate whether the gnome pty helper should be moved into systemd, to provide cgroup support.
279 * maybe introduce ExecRestartPre=
281 * configurable jitter for timer events
283 * timer events with system resume
285 * timer events on calendar time
287 * dot output for --test showing the 'initial transaction'
289 * calendar time support in timer, iCalendar semantics for the timer stuff (RFC2445)

292 * implicitly import "defaults" settings file into all types
293 * exec settings override
294 * writable cgroups dbus properties for live changes
296 * read config fragments for all units from /lib/systemd/system/foobar.service.d/ to override/extend specific settings
298 * port over to LISTEN_FDS/LISTEN_PID:
299 - rpcbind (/var/run/rpcbind.sock!) HAVEPATCH
303 - libvirtd (/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock-ro)
304 - bluetoothd (/var/run/sdp! @/org/bluez/audio!)
307 * auditd service files
309 * fingerprint.target, wireless.target, gps.target, netdevice.target
311 * io priority during initialization
313 * systemctl list-jobs - show dependencies
315 * add systemctl switch to dump transaction without executing it
317 * suspend, resume support?
319 * drop cap bounding set in readahead and other services
324 - get process transport into dbus for systemctl -P/-H (PENDING)
326 - natively watch for dbus-*.service symlinks (PENDING)
327 - allow specification of socket mode/umask when allocating DBusServer
328 - allow disabling of fd passing when connecting a AF_UNIX connection
329 - allow disabling of UID passing for AUTH EXTERNAL
332 PR_SET_CHILD_REAPER patch: https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/7/28/426
333 (patch in linux-next, on the way to the next kernel)
335 * fix alsa mixer restore to not print error when no config is stored
337 * gnome-shell python script/glxinfo/is-accelerated must die
339 * make cryptsetup lower --iter-time
341 * patch kernel for xattr support in /dev, /proc/, /sys and /sys/fs/cgroup?
343 * NTP: the kernel's 11-minutes-mode syncs the system time to the RTC, but only
344 in an ~30 minutes window. It does not adjust larger differences. Find a way
345 to tell the kernel, to always do a full time sync when the RTC is in UTC and
346 we are in 11-minutes-mode. When we trust the system time to NTP we also want
349 * patch kernel for cpu feature modalias for autoloading aes/kvm/...
350 (patches in linux-next, on the way to the next kernel)
352 * kernel: add device_type = "fb", "fbcon" to class "graphics"
356 * look for close() vs. close_nointr() vs. close_nointr_nofail()
358 * check for strerror(r) instead of strerror(-r)
360 * Use PR_SET_PROCTITLE_AREA if it becomes available in the kernel
362 * %m in printf() instead of strerror();
366 * set_put(), hashmap_put() return values check. i.e. == 0 doesn't free()!
