* When lz4 gets an API for lz4 command output, make use of it to
compress coredumps in a way compatible with /usr/bin/lz4.
+Release 219 preparations:
+
+* rework journald sigbus stuff to use mutex
+
+* machinectl: show progress percentage in list
+
+* nspawn: don't change superblock mount options from nspawn for cgroup hierarchies
+
+* "systemctl kill" is broken
+
+* the dbus1 connection user id is actually the euid, not the uid, and creds should return that
+
+* sd-bus make dsrt happy, and change userspace header for kdbus to yyyyuta{tv}v
+
Features:
-* change default container location from /var/lib/container to /var/lib/machines
+* import-dkr: support tarsum checksum verification, if it becomes reality one day...
+
+* import-dkr: convert json bits to nspawn configuration
+
+* import: support import from local files, and export to local files
+
+* core/cgroup: support net_cls modules, and support automatically allocating class ids, then add support for making firewall changes depending on it, to implement a per-service firewall
+
+* bus-proxy: reload policy when PID 1 reports a reload
+
+* introduce systemd-nspawn-ephemeral@.service, and hook it into "machinectl start" with a new --ephemeral switch
+
+* logind,machined: add generic catch-all polkit verbs for most priviliged operations, similar to systemd itself
+
+* "machinectl status" should also show internal logs of the container in question
+
+* "machinectl list-images" should show os-release data, as well as machine-info data (including deployment level)
* nspawn: when start a container "foobar" look for its configuration in a file "foobar.nspawn" in /etc/systemd/nspawn/ as well as next to the actualy directory or image to boot
* Check all invocations of access() and consider turning them into laccess()
-* "machinectl start/enable/disable foo" as aliases for "systemctl start/enable/disable systemd-nspawn@foo.service"
-
* "machinectl history"
* "machinectl diff"
* systemd-nspawn -x should support ephemeral instances of gpt images
+* move machinectl's mount and copy commands into machined
+
* hostnamectl: show root image uuid
* sysfs set api in libudev is not const
* port libmount hookup to use API's own inotify interface, as soon as that is table in libmount
-* journald: broken file systems are real (btrfs), we need to handle
- SIGBUS in some way if we cannot write or read from the disk.

-
* "systemctl preset-all" should probably order the unit files it
operates on lexicographically before starting to work, in order to
ensure deterministic behaviour if two unit files conflict (like DMs
* systemd-journal-upload (or a new, related tool): allow pushing out
journal messages onto the network in BSD syslog protocol,
- continously. Default to some link-local IP mcast group, to make this
+ continuously. Default to some link-local IP mcast group, to make this
useful as a one-stop debugging tool.
* synchronize console access with BSD locks:
desktop UIs such as gnome-shell to freeze apps that are not visible
on screen, not unlike how job control works on the shell
-* completions:
- - manager property enumeration was broken when systemd moved to /usr/lib/
-
* cgroups:
- implement per-slice CPUFairScheduling=1 switch
- handle jointly mounted controllers correctly
ReadOnlyDirectories=... for whitelisting files for a service.
* sd-bus:
+ - GetAllProperties() on a non-existing object does not result in a failure currently
- kdbus: process fd=-1 for incoming msgs
- - make dsrt happy, and change userspace header for kdbus to yyyyuta{tv}v
- - kdbus: PID/TID goes missing for method calls from outside the PID namespace?
- - kdbus: the kernel should not allow messages to be delivered that have a reply serial != 0, reply-expect unset, but no appropriate window
- - kdbus: timestamps on kernel's NameOwnerChanged messages?
- - kdbus' busnames.target should get pulled in by basic.target
- - Ignore .busname units on classic D-Bus boots, systemd-resolved cannot be started on kdbus
- without the active policy and should get a Wants=org.freedesktop.resolve1.busname to
- pull-in the policy.
- port to sd-resolve for connecting to TCP dbus servers
- kdbus: maybe add controlling tty metadata fields
- see if we can introduce a new sd_bus_get_owner_machine_id() call to retrieve the machine ID of the machine of the bus itself
- when kdbus does not take our message without memfds, try again with memfds
- - introduce sd_bus_emit_object_added()/sd_bus_emit_object_removed() that automatically includes the build-in interfaces in the list
- see if we can drop more message validation on the sending side
- add API to clone sd_bus_message objects
- make AddMatch calls on dbus1 transports async?
* teach ConditionKernelCommandLine= globs or regexes (in order to match foobar={no,0,off})
-* after all byte-wise realloc() is slow, even on glibc, so i guess we
- need manual exponential loops after all
-
* BootLoaderSpec: Clarify that the kernel has to be in $BOOT. Clarify
that the boot loader should be installed to the ESP. Define a way
how an installer can figure out whether a BLS compliant boot loader
- journal: add a setgid "systemd-journal" utility to invoke from libsystemd-journal, which passes fds via STDOUT and does PK access
- journactl: support negative filtering, i.e. FOOBAR!="waldo",
and !FOOBAR for events without FOOBAR.
- - journal: send out marker messages every now and then, and immediately sync with fdatasync() afterwards, in order to have hourly guaranteed syncs.
+ - journal: store timestamp of journal_file_set_offline() int he header,
+ so it is possible to display when the file was last synced.
- 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.
- journal: find a way to allow dropping history early, based on priority, other rules
- journal: When used on NFS, check payload hashes
- - journal live copy, based on libneon (client) and libmicrohttpd (server)
- journald: add kernel cmdline option to disable ratelimiting for debug purposes
- refuse taking lower-case variable names in sd_journal_send() and friends.
- journald: we currently rotate only after MaxUse+MaxFilesize has been reached.
* currently x-systemd.timeout is lost in the initrd, since crypttab is copied into dracut, but fstab is not
* nspawn:
- - bind mount read-only the cgroup tree higher than nspawn
- refuses to boot containers without /etc/machine-id (OK?), and with empty /etc/machine-id (not OK).
- - introduce machines.target to order after all nspawn instances
- - systemd-nspawn@.service should fail if some nspawn arg is invalid, with Type=notify
- - PID 1 doesn't apply nspawns devices cgroup policy
* cryptsetup:
- cryptsetup-generator: allow specification of passwords in crypttab itself
* tmpfiles:
- apply "x" on "D" too (see patch from William Douglas)
+ - replace F with f+.
+ - instead of ignoring unknown fields, reject them.
* for services: do not set $HOME in services unless requested
- write more test cases
- implement and do duplicate address detection, see rfc 4862, 5.4.
- implement reconfigure support, see 5.3., 15.11. and 22.20.
- - implement information request, see 1.2. and 18.1.5.
- implement support for temporary adressess (IA_TA)
- implement dhcpv6 authentication
- investigate the usefulness of Confirm messages; i.e. are there any
