* properly handle .mount unit state tracking when two mount points are stacked one on top of another on the exact same mount point.
-* When we detect invalid UTF-8, we cannot use it in an error message:
- log...("Path is not UTF-8 clean, ignoring assignment: %s", rvalue);
-
* shorten the message to sane length:
Cannot add dependency job for unit display-manager.service, ignoring: Unit display-manager.service failed to load: No such file or directory. See system logs and 'systemctl status display-manager.service' for details.
-External:
+* systemctl --root=container/ set-default ... is totally borked.
-* ps should gain colums for slice

* Fedora: when installing fedora with yum --installroot /var/run is a directory, not a symlink
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=975864
Features:
+* hookup nspawn and PrivateNetwork=yes with "ip netns"
+
+* 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
+ and passes this back to PID1 via SCM_RIGHTS. This also could be used
+ to allow Chown/chgrp on sockets without requiring NSS in PID 1.
+
+* New service property: maximum CPU and wallclock runtime for a service
+
+* introduce bus call FreezeUnit(s, b), as well as "systemctl freeze
+ $UNIT" and "systemctl thaw $UNIT" as wrappers around this. The calls
+ should SIGSTOP all unit processes in a loop until all processes of
+ it are fully stopped. This can later be used for app management by
+ desktop UIs such as gnome-shell to freeze apps that are not visible
+ on screen, not unlike how job control works on the shell
+
+* machinectl bash completion is missing
+* busctl bash and zsh completions are outdated
+
* libsystemd-journal returns the object created as first param in sd_journal_new(), sd_bus_new() and suchlike as last...
* cgroups:
* code cleanup
- we probably should replace the left-over uses of strv_append() and replace them by strv_push() or strv_extend()
-* when we detect low battery and no AC on boot, show pretty splash and refuse boot
+* Automatically configure swap partition to use for hibernation by looking for largest swap partition on the root disk?
-* move libasyncns into systemd as libsystemd-asyncns
+* when we detect low battery and no AC on boot, show pretty splash and refuse boot
* machined, localed: when we try to kill an empty cgroup, generate an ESRCH error over the bus
* given that logind now lets PID 1 do all nasty work, we can
probably reduce the capability set it retains substantially.
+ (we need CAP_SYS_ADMIN for drmSetMaster(), so maybe not worth it)
* btrfs raid assembly: some .device jobs stay stuck in the queue
* allow implementation of InaccessibleDirectories=/ plus
ReadOnlyDirectories=... for whitelisting files for a service.
-* libsystemd-bus:
+* sd-bus:
- when kdbus doesn't take our message without memfds, try again with memfds
- implement monitor logic
- see if we can drop more message validation on the sending side
- add API to clone sd_bus_message objects
- - SD_BUS_COMMENT() macro for inclusion in vtables, syntax inspired by gdbus
- 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 queues
- * priority inheritance
+ - longer term: priority inheritance
- check sender of response messages
- dbus spec updates:
- kdbus mapping
- GVariant
- "const" properties (posted)
- port exit-on-idle logic to byebye ioctl
- - make use of "drop" ioctl in pid 1 bus activation
+ - 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
* sd-event
- allow multiple signal handlers per signal?
- Check if Driver= is broken, or just my driver (bcma)
* sd-rtnl:
- - replace sd_rtnl_message_append() by type-safe versions
- - improve container support, and add support for entering containers when reading
+ - add support for exiting containers without reading them fully first
- add support for more attribute types
* networkd:
- - unify and clarify logging, also use proper structured log messages
- - add [Route] sections
- - add more keys to [Address] sections
- - add DHCPv4 support (and, longer term, other kinds of dynamic config)
+ - add more keys to [Route] and [Address] sections
+ - add support for more DHCPv4 options (and, longer term, other kinds of dynamic config)
+ - allow opting out of receiving DNS servers over DHCPv4
- add proper initrd support (in particular generate .network/.link files based on /proc/cmdline)
