Bugfixes:
-* Fedora: rename /usr/lib/systemd/system-preset/99-default.preset to 90-default.preset
-
-* there is nothing to warn about here :)
- $ systemctl stop systemd-udevd.service systemd-udevd-kernel.socket systemd-udevd-control.socket
- Warning: Stopping systemd-udevd.service, but it can still be activated by:
- systemd-udevd-control.socket
- systemd-udevd-kernel.socket
-
-* kill /etc/timezone handling entirely? What does it provide?
- - /etc/localtime carries the same information already:
- $ ls -l /etc/localtime; cat /etc/timezone
- lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 33 Jul 27 09:55 /etc/localtime -> /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Berlin
- Europe/Berlin
- - systemd enforces /usr to be available at bootup, so we can
- enforce the use of the symlink
+* mount efivars only if /sys/firmware/efi/ exists
+ (add *condition callback to API mounts array and check for directory)
* check systemd-tmpfiles for selinux context hookup for mknod(), symlink() and similar
* properly handle .mount unit state tracking when two mount points are stacked one on top of another on the exact same mount point.
-* we pull src/core/manager.h into src/shared/src/shared/path-lookup.c which is the wrong direction
- rename enum "ManagerRunningAs" to "SystemdRunningAs" and move it to shared/
+F18:
-* crash happens when running a service as forking and then changing it to simple and reloading.
+* Retest multi-seat
- Jul 09 18:20:57 mop systemd[1]: usbmuxd.service operation timed out. Terminating.
- Jul 09 18:20:57 mop systemd[1]: Unit usbmuxd.service entered failed state.
- Jul 09 18:22:24 mop systemd[1]: PID 21814 read from file /var/run/usbmuxd.pid does not exist.
- Jul 09 18:22:24 mop systemd[1]: Unit usbmuxd.service entered failed state.
- Jul 09 18:22:33 mop systemd[1]: Reloading.
- Jul 09 18:22:37 mop systemd[1]: Assertion 's->type == SERVICE_FORKING' failed at src/core/service.c:3007, function service_sigchld_eve...Aborting.
- Jul 09 18:22:37 mop systemd[1]: Caught <ABRT>, dumped core as pid 21865.
- Jul 09 18:22:37 mop systemd[1]: Freezing execution.
- Jul 09 18:22:37 mop [21866]: Process 21865 (systemd) dumped core.
+Features:
-* support *static* (/run) hibernate inhibitors. All rpm -i actions should completely prevent any
- sort of hibernate action until the next reboot. If the kernel or any other base tool is replaced
- by rpm, the resume path might fail, the for resume needed kernel might even be uninstalled, and
- the whole situation leads directly to data loss.
+* introduce ntp.service (or suchlike) as symlink that is used to arbitrate between various NTP implementations
-Features:
+* timer units should get the ability to trigger:
+ a) when CLOCK_REALTIME makes jumps (TFD_TIMER_CANCEL_ON_SET)
+ b) when DST jumps takes place (glibc's zoneinfo "mess")
+ We want to be able to schedule an event when the system time changes by user
+ request, or DST change takes effect, to update the rtc-in-localtime and sys_tz
+ of the kernel when needed.
-* perfomance messages for selinux are gone from debug log?
+* When we begin with system shutdown all kind of suspend/hibernation should be prohibited until shutdown/reboot
-* http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2012-September/006502.html
+* When we update the kernel all kind of hibernation should be prohibited until shutdown/reboot
-* don't use writev() in tmpfiles for sake of compat with sysfs?
+* hwdb:
+ - implement conditional properties (dmi matches)
+ - hwdb --filter=ID_DRIVE_*
+ - find out what to do for blockdevs and skipping scsi modaliases
+ - move writing code to src/libudev/libudev-hwdb-private.c
-* come up with a nice way to write queue/read_ahead_kb for a block device without interfering with readahead
+* sd_journal_enumerate_data() implies XZ-decoding compressed field, this sucks hard
-* journald: add kernel cmdline option to disable ratelimiting for debug purposes
+* if booted in "quiet" mode, and an error happens, turn on status output again, so that the emergency mode isn't totally surprising
-* Add a way to reference the machine/boot ID from ExecStart= and similar command lines
+* localectl: add listing support for X11 keymaps, by parsing /usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/xorg.lst
-* move PID 1 segfaults to /var/lib/systemd/coredump?
+* libunwind support for coredump pattern hook, and includes this in
+ the message for coredumps. After all, libunwind is now capable to
+ unwind coredumps since a few weeks ago. This probably requires that
+ we have nice support for multi-line messages on display in logs-show.c.
-* Document word splitting syntax for ExecStart= and friends
+* figure out relation of --all and --full in the various tools
-* merge: github.com/systemd/python-systemd
+* journal: when writing journal auto-rotate if time jumps backwards
-* when writing journal entries order field items by their address to improve speed on rotating media
+* introduce new "journal" group in place of adm? introduce groups for the various mini daemons?
-* create /sbin/init symlinks from the build system
+* journal: add a setgid "adm" utility to invoke from libsystemd-journal, which passes fds via STDOUT and does PK access
-* Query Paul Moore about relabelling socket fds while they are open
+* link up selected blog stories from man pages?
-* move keymaps to /usr/lib/... rather than /usr/lib/udev/...
+* journactl: support negative filtering, i.e. FOOBAR!="waldo",
+ and !FOOBAR for events without FOOBAR.
-* journald: check whether it is OK if the client can still modify delivered journal entries
+* print nice message from systemctl --failed if there are no entries shown, and hook that into ExecStartPre of rescue.service/emergency.service
-* json: use jensson
+* add libsystemd-password or so to query passwords during boot using the password agent logic
-* json: properly serialize multiple fields with the same name per entry
+* journal: when rotating, copy over old acls/access mode
-* journald: add option to choose between "split up nothing", "split up login user journals", "split up all user journals"
+* journal: document why we do not give ownership to journal files to the user that created them but use FS ACLs for that
-* journal live copy, based on libneon (client) and libmicrohttpd
+* journal: send out marker messages every now and then, and immediately sync with fdatasync() afterwards, in order to have hourly guaranteed syncs.
-* document in wiki json serialization
+* journal: when we haven't written anything in a while, sync to disk and mark file as offline, in order to be more often than not in a clean state
-* python-journal merge
+* 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.
-* system-wide seccomp filter
+* 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().
-* securityfs: don't mount in container
+* fedup: add --unit to systemctl switch-root somehow
+* fedup: don't delete initrd on switch-root
+* fedup: generator
-* slave/shared remount root fs in container might clash with CAP_SYS_MOUNTS
+* journal: find a way to allow dropping history early, based on priority, other rules
-* ability to pass fds into systemd
+* journal: When used on NFS, check payload hashes
-* system.conf should have controls for cgroups
+* journal: When used on NFS make sure wake up sd_journal_wait() every 2s, to handle missing inotify
-* bind mount read-only the cgroup tree higher than than nspawn
+* document that people can use file system ACLs to manage access to journal files, with example
-* currently system services appear not to generate core dumps...
+* don't show cgroup in "systemctl status" if empty/non-existant, especially for foreign .mount units
-* wall messages for shutdown should move to logind
+* timedated: export boolean that clarifies whether NTP is even available
-* allow writing multiple conditions in unit files on one line
+* timedated: refuse time changes when NTP is on
+
+* clean up date formatting and parsing so that all absolute/relative timestamps we format can also be parsed
+
+* document unit_name_mangle()
+
+* add new command to systemctl: "systemctl system-reexec" which reexecs as many daemons as virtually possible
+
+* introduce generic AUGMENT_PID=, AUGMENT_DEVICE= fields
+
+* deal with sendmail/postfix exclusivity
+
+* systemctl enable: improve the success messages (i.e. more human readable, less shell-like)
+
+* systemctl enable: fail if target to alias into doesn't exist? maybe show how many units are enabled afterwards?
+
+* on shutdown: move utmp, wall, audit logic all into PID 1 itself, get rid of systemd-update-utmp-runlevel
+
+* add "provisioning" instructions to setup an empty /etc + /var
+ - used to setup a new container from a shared /usr
+ - superset of tmpfiles model
+ - instructions shipped by packages and stored in /usr/lib/
+ - compose /etc/passwd and /etc/group, copy files
+ - able to create uid + gid used by packages, for file ownership
-* There's something wrong with escaping unit names: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2012-August/006292.html
+* make repeated alt-ctrl-del presses printing a dump, or even force a reboot without
+ waiting for the timeout
-* 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
+* high level net_prio setting in execution context
-* enforce limits on fds openened by socket units
+* Introduce journalctl -b <nr> to show journal messages of a previous boot
+
+* hostnamed: before returning information from /etc/machine-info.conf check the modification data and reread. Similar for localed, ...
+
+* currently x-systemd.timeout is lost in the initrd, since crypttab is copied into dracut, but fstab isn't
+
+* WorkingDirectory: support env var replacements like in ExecStart= so that people can use $HOME
+
+* refuse boot if /etc/machine-id is not useful
+
+* nspawn: consider changing users for -u with su, so that NSS resolving works correctly

+ https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54982
+
+* make nspawn work without terminal
+
+* hw watchdog: optionally try to use the preset watchdog timeout instead of always overriding it
+ https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54712
+
+* after deserializing sockets in socket.c we should reapply sockopts and things
+

+
+* http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2012-September/006502.html
