Features:
+* support empty /etc boots nicely:
+ - apply presets at first boot
+ - tmpfiles: allow overriding of /etc/mtab
+ - tmpfiles: add nice way to copy files /usr/share/etc → /etc
+
* generator that automatically discovers btrfs subvolumes, identifies their purpose based on some xattr on them.
* support setting empty environment variables with Environment= and EnvironmentFile=
-* tmpfiles: figure out relation between Z and m?
-
* machined/machinectl: sort IP addresses we return by scope and protocol
* machined: write NSS module for looking up IP addresses for machines
* sd-event: generate a failure of a default event loop is executed out-of-thread
-* add "M" as recursive version of "m" to tmpfiles, then use it for
- chowning /run/log/journal (but not /var/log/journal), so that we
- adjust the perms of journal files created before tmpfiles ran.
-
* expose "Locked" property on logind sesison objects
* add bus api to query unit file's X fields.
do not have to open it to know that it is not interesting for us, for
the most common operations.
-* support transient mount units
-
-* add an "input" group to udev logic and add all input devices to it
-
* add generator that pulls in systemd-network from containers when
CAP_NET_ADMIN is set, more than the loopback device is defined, even
when it is otherwise off
ReadOnlyDirectories=... for whitelisting files for a service.
* sd-bus:
- - make AddMatch calls on dbus1 transports async?
- when kdbus does not take our message without memfds, try again with memfds
- systemd-bus-proxyd needs to enforce good old XML policy
- allow updating attach flags during runtime
- pid1: peek into activating message when activating a service
- introduce sd_bus_emit_object_added()/sd_bus_emit_object_removed() that automatically includes the build-in interfaces in the list
- - constructors for bus messages should probably not be OK with a NULL bus pointer
+ - port to sd-resolve for connecting to TCP dbus servers
- 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?
- 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 inheritance
- dbus spec updates:
- path escaping
- update systemd.special(7) to mention that dbus.socket is only about the compatibility socket now
- test bloom filter generation indexes
- - port to sd-resolve for connecting to TCP dbus servers
* sd-event
- allow multiple signal handlers per signal?
* currently x-systemd.timeout is lost in the initrd, since crypttab is copied into dracut, but fstab is not
* nspawn:
- - nspawn: --read-only is not applied recursively to submounts
- bind mount read-only the cgroup tree higher than nspawn
- - nspawn: make it work for dwalsh and shared /usr containers -- tmpfs mounts as command line parameters
- refuses to boot containers without /etc/machine-id (OK?), and with empty /etc/machine-id (not OK).
- support taking a btrfs snapshot at startup and dropping it afterwards
* make timer units go away after they elapsed
-* http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2012-September/006502.html
- (network and remote-fs on shutdown)
-
* come up with a nice way to write queue/read_ahead_kb for a block device without interfering with readahead
* move PID 1 segfaults to /var/lib/systemd/coredump?
* MountFlags=shared acts as MountFlags=slave right now.
-* ReadOnlyDirectories= is not applied recursively to submounts
-
* drop PID 1 reloading, only do reexecing (difficult: Reload()
currently is properly synchronous, Reexec() is weird, because we
cannot delay the response properly until we are back, so instead of
- readahead: when bumping /sys readahead variable save mtime and compare later to detect changes
- readahead: make use of EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT, as used by http://e4rat.sourceforge.net/
-* add support for /bin/mount -s
-
* GC unreferenced jobs (such as .device jobs)
* write blog stories about:
