Bugfixes:
-* check systemd-tmpfiles for selinux context hookup for mknod(), symlink() and similar
+* killing nspawn with ]]] results in:
+ machine-f20.scope stopping timed out. Killing.
+ Stopped Container f20.
+ Unit machine-f20.scope entered failed state.
+ and it cannot be started again
-* swap units that are activated by one name but shown in the kernel under another are semi-broken
+* enabling an instance unit creates a pointless link, and
+ the unit will be started with getty@getty.service:
+ $ systemctl enable getty@.service
+ ln -s '/usr/lib/systemd/system/getty@.service' '/etc/systemd/system/getty.target.wants/getty@.service'
* Dangling symlinks of .automount unit files in .wants/ directories, set up
automount points even when the original .automount file did not exist
anymore. Only the .mount unit was still around.
-* make polkit checks async
-
* properly handle .mount unit state tracking when two mount points are stacked one on top of another on the exact same mount point.
-Fedora 19:
+* 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);
-* timedatectl: NTP enabled: n/a
+* shorten the message to sane length:
-* fix match logic to add another level of disjunction/conjunction
+ 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: maybe it is time to patch procps so that "ps" links to
- libsystemd-logind to print a pretty service name, seat name, session
- name in its output. Currently it only shows cgroup membership, but
- that's sometimes kinda hard to parse for a human.
+* systemctl --root=container/ set-default ... is totally borked.
-* cgroup attrs:
- - update dbus interface docs in wiki
+External:
-* localed:
- - localectl: support new converted x11→console keymaps
+* Fedora: when installing fedora with yum --installroot /var/run is a directory, not a symlink
+ https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=975864
-* timer logic is confused by units which are skipped due to failing condition
- http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2013-February/008816.html
+* Fedora: add an rpmlint check that verifies that all unit files in the RPM are listed in %systemd_post macros.
-* timer logic is also confused if a service it triggers hasn't finished when the next timer elapses:
- http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2013-February/009021.html
+* Fedora: post FPC ticket to move add %tmpfiles_create to the packaging guidelines
Features:
-* for instanced unit drop-ins we should look in foo@bar.service.d/ as well as foo@.service.d/
+* hookup nspawn and PrivateNetwork=yes with "ip netns"
-* if pam_systemd is invoked by su from a process that is outside of a
- any session we should probably just become a NOP, since that's
- usually not a real user session but just some system code that just
- needs setuid().
+* 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.
-* add a pam module that passes the hdd passphrase into the PAM stack and then expires it, for usage by gdm auto-login.
+* New service property: maximum CPU and wallclock runtime for a service
-* add a pam module that on password changes updates any LUKS slot where the password matches
+* 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
-* maybe add a generator that looks for "systemd.run=" on the kernel cmdline for container usercases...
+* machinectl bash completion is missing
+* busctl bash and zsh completions are outdated
-* timedatctl, localectl: possibly make some commands work without the daemon, for chroot situations...
+* libsystemd-journal returns the object created as first param in sd_journal_new(), sd_bus_new() and suchlike as last...
-* nspawn: expose init PID, UUID, root directory as cgroup EAs. names should be: 'user.machine_id', 'user.init_pid', 'user.root_directory'.
+* cgroups:
+ - implement system-wide DefaultCPUAccounting=1 switch (and similar for blockio, memory?)
+ - implement per-slice CPUFairScheduling=1 switch
+ - handle jointly mounted controllers correctly
+ - introduce high-level settings for RT budget, swappiness
+ - how to reset dynamically changed unit cgroup attributes sanely?
+ - when reloading configuration, apply new cgroup configuration
+ - when recursively showing the cgroup hierarchy, optionally also show
+ the hierarchies of child processes
-* logind: consider making suspend inhibitor locks non-session specific, but keep suspend-key inhibitor locks session specific
+* transient units:
+ - allow creating auxiliary units with the same call
+ - add field to transient units that indicate whether systemd or somebody else saves/restores its settings, for integration with libvirt
+ - ensure scope units may be started only a single time
-* logind: add Suspend() bus calls which take timestamps to fix double suspend issues when somebody hits suspend and closes laptop quickly.
+* code cleanup
+ - we probably should replace the left-over uses of strv_append() and replace them by strv_push() or strv_extend()
-* we need dynamic units
+* Automatically configure swap partition to use for hibernation by looking for largest swap partition on the root disk?
-* nss-myhostname should also resolve 'localhost' so that /etc/hosts becomes optional.
+* when we detect low battery and no AC on boot, show pretty splash and refuse boot
-* add s.th. like "systemctl set-log-level debug"
+* machined, localed: when we try to kill an empty cgroup, generate an ESRCH error over the bus
-* sd-login: allow enumerating machines and add inotify iface
+* libsystemd-journal, libsystemd-login, libudev: add calls to easily attach these objects to sd-event event loops
-* move session owner code from sd-login.c to cgroup-util.c
+* be more careful what we export on the bus as (usec_t) 0 and (usec_t) -1
-* cgroup-util: verify syntax of cgroup controllers
+* unify dispatch table in systemctl_main() and friends
-* cgtop: make cgtop useful in a container
+* Automatically configure swap partition to use for hibernation by looking for largest swap partition on the root disk?
+
+* socket-proxyd:Use a nonblocking alternative to getaddrinfo
+
+* rfkill,backlight: we probably should run the load tools inside of the udev rules so that the state is properly initialized by the time other software sees it
+
+* Add a new Distribute=$NUMBER key to socket units that makes use of SO_REUSEPORT to distribute network traffic on $NUMBER instances
+
+* move config_parse_path_strv() out of conf-parser.c
+
+* After coming back from hibernation reset hibernation swap partition using the /dev/snapshot ioctl APIs
+
+* If we try to find a unit via a dangling symlink, generate a clean
+ error. Currently, we just ignore it and read the unit from the search
+ path anyway.
+
+* When a Type=forking service fails and needed another service, that
+ service is not cleaned up again when it has StopWhenUnneeded=yes
+ http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2013-July/012141.html
+
+* refuse boot if /etc/os-release is missing or /etc/machine-id cannot be set up
+
+* 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
+
+* make sure gdm doesn't use multi-user-x but the new default X configuration file, and then remove multi-user-x from systemd
+
+* man: the documentation of Restart= currently is very misleading and suggests the tools from ExecStartPre= might get restarted.
+
+* load .d/*.conf dropins for device units
+
+* gparted needs to disable auto-activation of mount units somehow, or
+ maybe we should stop doing auto-activation of this after boot
+ entirely. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=701676
+ Maybe take a BSD lock at the disk device node and teach udev to
+ check for that and suppress event handling.
+
+* something pulls in pcre as shared object dependency into our daemons such as hostnamed.
+
+* allow implementation of InaccessibleDirectories=/ plus
+ ReadOnlyDirectories=... for whitelisting files for a service.
+
+* 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
+ - 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 inheritance
+ - check sender of response messages
+ - dbus spec updates:
+ - kdbus mapping
+ - NameLost/NameAcquired obsolete
+ - GVariant
+ - "const" properties (posted)
+ - port exit-on-idle logic to byebye ioctl
+ - 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?
+
+* in the final killing spree, detect processes from the root directory, and
+ complain loudly if they have argv[0][0] == '@' set.
+ https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=961044
+
+* Introduce a way how we can kill the main process of a service with KillSignal, but all processes with SIGKILL later on
+ https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=952634
+
+* maybe add a warning to the unit file parses where the access mode of unit files is nonsensical.
+
+* investigate endianness issues of UUID vs. GUID
+
+* dbus: when a unit failed to load (i.e. is in UNIT_ERROR state), we
+ should be able to safely try another attempt when the bus call LoadUnit() is invoked.
+
+* add a pam module that passes the hdd passphrase into the PAM stack and then expires it, for usage by gdm auto-login.
-* make sure cg_pid_get_path() works properly for co-mounted controllers
+* add a pam module that on password changes updates any LUKS slot where the password matches
+
+* maybe add a generator that looks for "systemd.run=" on the kernel cmdline for container usercases...
-* nspawn: ensure syntax of --uuid= argument is correct
+* timedatctl, localectl: possibly make some commands work without the daemon, for chroot situations...
-* explicitly disallow changing the cgroup path of units in the
- name=systemd hierarchy, unless it is outside of /system
+* timedatectl: print a nicer message when enabling ntp fails because ntpd/chrony are not installed
-* add 'set -e' to scripts in test/
-* make test in test/ work with separate output dir
+* cgtop: make cgtop useful in a container
-* suppress log output on shutdown when "quiet" is used
+* test/:
+ - add 'set -e' to scripts in test/
+ - make stuff in test/ work with separate output dir
* systemctl delete x.snapshot leaves no trace in logs (at least at default level).
so that the coredump is properly written to the user's own journal
file.
-* move /usr/lib/modules/$(uname -r)/modules.devname parsing from udevd to
- kmod static-nodes
- call kmod as an early service, and drop CAP_MKNOD from udevd.service
-
-* systemd-delta needs to be made aware of *.d/*.conf drop-in files for
- units.
-
* seems that when we follow symlinks to units we prefer the symlink
destination path over /etc and /usr. We shouldn't do that. Instead
/etc should always override /run+/usr and also any symlink
destination.
-* remove duplicate default deps logic from fstab-generator vs. mount.c
-
* when isolating, try to figure out a way how we implicitly can order
all units we stop before the isolating unit...
-* teach udev + logind's uaccess to somehow handle the "dead" device nodes from:
- /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/modules.devname
- and apply ACLs to them if they have TAG=="uaccess" in udev rules.
-
-* matching against units is currently broken in journalctl. We really
- need another AND level in the expressions,
- i.e. sd_journal_add_conjunction().
-
* add ConditionArchitecture= or so
* teach ConditionKernelCommandLine= globs or regexes (in order to match foobar={no,0,off})
-* we should log capabilities too
-
* Support SO_REUSEPORT with socket activation:
- Let systemd maintain a pool of servers.
- Use for seamless upgrades, by running the new server before stopping the
installed to the ESP. Define a way how an installer can figure out
whether a BLS compliant boot loader is installed.
-* man: remove .include documentation, and instead push people to use .d/*.conf
-
-* disallow .include from included files
-
-* safe_atod() is too naive, as it is vulnerable to locale parameters, should be locale independent.
-
* think about requeuing jobs when daemon-reload is issued? usecase:
the initrd issues a reload after fstab from the host is accessible
and we might want to requeue the mounts local-fs acquired through
that automatically.
-* neither pkexec nor sudo initialize environ[] from the PAM environment?
-
-* rework specifier logic so that we can distuingish OOM errors from other errors
-
* systemd-inhibit: make taking delay locks useful: support sending SIGINT or SIGTERM on PrepareForSleep()
* journal-or-kmsg is currently broken? See reverted commit 4a01181e460686d8b4a543b1dfa7f77c9e3c5ab8.
* remove any syslog support from log.c -- we probably can't do this before split-off udev is gone for good
-* fedora: connect the timer units of a service to the service via Also= in [Install]
-
-* fedora: F20: go timer units all the way, leave cron.daily for cron
-
-* add a tool that lists active timer units plus their next elapstion and the time the units ran last
-
-* man: document the very specific env the shutdown drop-in tools live in
-
* shutdown logging: store to EFI var, and store to USB stick?
-* man: extend runlevel(8) to mention that runlevels suck, and are dead. Maybe add runlevel(7) with a note about that too
-
-* systemctl: maybe add "systemctl add-wants" or so...
-
-* man: add a link to socket activation blog from systemd.socket(5)
-
-* man: add more examples to man pages
-
-* man: maybe sort directives in man pages, and take sections from --help and apply them to man too
-
-* add "# export SYSTEMD_PAGER=" to bash login
-
-* /usr/bin/service should actually show the new command line
-
-* fedora: suggest auto-restart on failure, but not on sucess and not on coredump. also, ask people to think about changing the start limit logic. Also point people to RestartPreventExitStatus=, SuccessExitStatus=
-
* write UI tool that pops up emergency messages from the journal as notification
* think about window-manager-run-as-user-service problem: exit 0 → activate shutdown.target; exit != 0 → restart service
-* msgcatalog determine default language of entries from the catalog
- file name. i.e. foobar.de_DE.catalog would set the default entry
- name for the entries to de_DE if they aren't explicitly suffixed
- individually.
-
* use "log level" rather than "log priority" everywhere
-* ensure sd_journal_seek_monotonic actually works properly.
-
* timedate: have global on/off switches for auto-time (NTP), and auto-timezone that connman can subscribe to.
-* Honour "-" prefix for InaccessibleDirectories= and ReadOnlyDirectories= to
- suppress errors of the specified path doesn't exist
-
* dev-setup.c: when running in a container, create a tiny stub udev
database with the systemd tag set for all network interfaces found,
so that libudev reports them as present, and systemd's .device units
* introduce ExecCondition= in services
* EFI:
- - fsck hookup for the ESP mount is missing
- write man page for efi boot generator
- honor language efi variables for default language selection (if there are any?)
- honor timezone efi variables for default timezone selection (if there are any?)
- - introduce bootctl (backed by systemd-bootd) to control temporary and persistent default boot goal plus efi variables
+ - change bootctl to be backed by systemd-bootd to control temporary and persistent default boot goal plus efi variables
* maybe do not install getty@tty1.service symlink in /etc but in /usr?
- logind: wakelock/opportunistic suspend support
- Add pretty name for seats in logind
- logind: allow showing logout dialog from system?
- - logind: spawn user@..service on login
- logind: non-local X11 server handling
- logind: add equivalent to sd_pid_get_owner_uid() to the D-Bus API
- pam: when leaving a session explicitly exclude the ReleaseSession() caller process from the killing spree
- - logind: GetSessionByPID() should accept 0 as PID value
- we should probably handle SIGTERM/SIGINT to not leave dot files around, just in case
+ - when logging out, remove user-owned sysv and posix IPC objects
+ - session scopes/user unit: add RequiresMountsFor for the home directory of the user
+ - add Suspend() bus calls which take timestamps to fix double suspend issues when somebody hits suspend and closes laptop quickly.
+ - if pam_systemd is invoked by su from a process that is outside of a
+ any session we should probably just become a NOP, since that's
+ usually not a real user session but just some system code that just
+ needs setuid().
* exec: when deinitializating a tty device fix the perms and group, too, not only when initializing. Set access mode/gid to 0620/tty.
-* DeviceAllow/DeviceDeny: disallow everything by default, but whitelist /dev/zero, /dev/null and friends
-
* service: watchdog logic: for testing purposes allow ping, but do not require pong
* journal:
- - do not use magic msync() in src/journal/journal-file.c, just call fsync()
- <alxchk> poettering: looks like msync just calls vfs_fsync
- http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/mm/msync.c#n18
- import and delete pstore filesystem content at startup
- journald: also get thread ID from client, plus thread name
- journal: when waiting for journal additions in the client always sleep at least 1s or so, in order to minimize wakeups
- check if we can make journalctl by default use --follow mode inside of less if called without args?
- maybe add API to send pairs of iovecs via sd_journal_send
- journal: when writing journal auto-rotate if time jumps backwards
- - gatewayd: should run under its own UID
- 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: when rotating, copy over old acls/access mode
- journal: send out marker messages every now and then, and immediately sync with fdatasync() afterwards, in order to have hourly guaranteed syncs.
- 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: When used on NFS make sure wake up sd_journal_wait() every 2s, to handle missing inotify
- - Introduce journalctl -b <nr> to show journal messages of a previous boot
- journald: check whether it is OK if the client can still modify delivered journal entries
- 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.
- journal: deal nicely with byte-by-byte copied files, especially regards header
- - journalctl: show multiline log messages sanely, expand tabs, and show all valid utf8 messages
- journal: store euid in journal if it differs from uid
- journal: sanely deal with entries which are larger than the individual file size, but where the components would fit
- - journalctl: make journalctl smarter, and actually check groups that have access to /var/log/journal before printing message about recomming group membership for journal access
+ - Replace utmp, wtmp, btmp, and lastlog completely with journal
+ - journalctl: instead --after-cursor= maybe have a --cursor=XYZ+1 syntax?
+ - tmpfiles: when applying ownership to /run/log/journal, also do this for the journal fails contained in it
+ - when a kernel driver logs in a tight loop, we should ratelimit that too.
+ - journald: optionally, log debug messages to /run but everything else to /var
+ - journald: when we drop syslog messages because the syslog socket is
+ full, make sure to write how many messages are lost as first thing
+ to syslog when it works again.
+ - journald: make sure ratelimit is actually really per-service with the new cgroup changes
+ - change systemd-journal-flush into a service that stays around during
+ boot, and causes the journal to be moved back to /run on shutdown,
+ so that we don't keep /var busy. This needs to happen synchronously,
+ hence doing this via signals is not going to work.
* document:
- - document unit_name_mangle()
- - document that deps in [Unit] sections ignore Alias= fileds in
+ - document that deps in [Unit] sections ignore Alias= fields in
[Install] units of other units, unless those units are disabled
- man: clarify that time-sync.target is not only sysv compat but also useful otherwise. Same for similar targets
- - Document word splitting syntax for ExecStart= and friends
- - document that units from /etc override those from /usr and /run
- document the exit codes when services fail before they are exec()ed
- document that service reload may be implemented as service reexec
- document in wiki how to map ical recurrence events to systemd timer unit calendar specifications
+ - add a man page containing packaging guidelines and recommending usage of things like Documentation=, PrivateTmp=, PrivateNetwork= and ReadOnlyDirectories=/etc /usr.
+ - document systemd-journal-flush.service properly
+ - man: remove .include documentation, and instead push people to use .d/*.conf
+ - documentation: recommend to connect the timer units of a service to the service via Also= in [Install]
+ - man: document the very specific env the shutdown drop-in tools live in
+ - man: extend runlevel(8) to mention that runlevels suck, and are dead. Maybe add runlevel(7) with a note about that too
+ - man: add more examples to man pages
+ - man: maybe sort directives in man pages, and take sections from --help and apply them to man too
* systemctl:
- systemctl list-jobs - show dependencies
- systemctl: "Journal has been rotated since unit was started." message is misleading
- support "systemctl stop foobar@.service" to stop all units matching a certain template
- Something is wrong with symlink handling of "autovt@.service" in "systemctl list-unit-files"
- - add configuration/switches to use
- freeze (http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git) and
- standby (https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=57793) as suspend modes
+ - rework wait filter to not require match callback
+ - better error message if you run systemctl without systemd running
+ - systemctl status output should should include list of triggering units and their status
+ - in systemctl list-timers show time triggering units ran last
+
+* unit install:
+ - "systemctl mask" should find all names by which a unit is accessible
+ (i.e. by scanning for symlinks to it) and link them all to /dev/null
+ - "systemctl disable" of a unit instance removes all symlinks, but should
+ only remove the instance symlink (systemctl disable of a template
+ unit however should remove them all).
+ - systemctl list-unit-files should list generated files (and probably with a new state "generated" for them, or so)
+ - systemctl: maybe add "systemctl add-wants" or so...
* introduce ntp.service (or suchlike) as symlink that is used to arbitrate between various NTP implementations
* deal with sendmail/postfix exclusivity
* timer units:
- - configurable jitter for timer events
- timer events with system resume
- timer units should get the ability to trigger when:
o CLOCK_REALTIME makes jumps (TFD_TIMER_CANCEL_ON_SET)
o DST changes
- Support 2012-02~4 as syntax for specifying the fourth to last day of the month.
+ - calendarspec: support value ranges with ".." notation. Example: 2013-4..8-1
+ - when parsing calendar timestamps support the UTC timezone (even if we won't support arbitrary timezone specs, support UTC itself certainly makes sense), also support syntaxes such as +0200
+ - Modulate timer frequency based on battery state
+ - anacron-like feature
* update the kernel's TZ (sys_tz) when DST changes
mode, it will never touch the RTC if the no reliable time source is active or the
user did not request anything like it.
-* hwdb:
- - implement conditional properties (dmi matches)
- - hwdb --filter=ID_DRIVE_*
-
* if booted in "quiet" mode, and an error happens, turn on status
output again, so that the emergency mode isn't totally
surprising. Also, terminate plymouth.
logs-show.c. Alternatively: use libelfutil, which seems to be the
better supported alternative.
-* figure out relation of --all and --full in the various tools
-
* add libsystemd-password or so to query passwords during boot using the password agent logic
* 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().
* fedup: don't delete initrd on switch-root
* fedup: generator
-* timedated:
- - timedated: refuse time changes when NTP is on
+* 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
-* introduce generic AUGMENT_PID=, AUGMENT_DEVICE= fields
-
* on shutdown: move utmp, wall, audit logic all into PID 1 (or logind?), get rid of systemd-update-utmp-runlevel
* add "provisioning" instructions to setup an empty /etc + /var
* make repeated alt-ctrl-del presses printing a dump, or even force a reboot without
waiting for the timeout
-* high level net_prio setting in execution context
-
* 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 (or set taint?)
-
* nspawn:
- nspawn: consider changing users for -u with su, so that NSS resolving works correctly
- nspawn: implement personality changes a la linux32(8)
- nspawn: investigate whether we can support the same as LXC's
lxc.network.type=phys mode, and pass through entire network
interfaces to the container
- - nspawn: maybe add a way to drop additional caps, in addition to add additional caps
- nspawn: maybe explicitly reset loginuid?
- - nspawn: move all containers to name=systemd:/containers/, and introduce externally visible names for containers
- nspawn: make it work for dwalsh and shared /usr containers -- tmpfs mounts as command line parameters, selinux exec context
+ - refuses to boot containers without /etc/machine-id (OK?), and with empty /etc/machine-id (not OK).
+ - add an option to nspawn that uses seccomp to make socket(AF_NETLINK,
+ SOCK_RAW, NETLINK_AUDIT) fail the the appropriate error code that
+ makes the audit userspace to think auditing is not available in the
+ kernel.
+ - support taking a btrfs snapshot at startup and dropping it afterwards
* cryptsetup:
- - cryptsetup-generator: warn if the password files are world-readable
- cryptsetup-generator: allow specification of passwords in crypttab itself
- move cryptsetup key caching into kernel keyctl?
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54982
- - when key file cannot be found, read it from kbd in cryptsetup
-
-* move debug shell to tty6 and make sure this doesn't break the gettys on tty6
+ - support rd.luks.allow-discards= kernel cmdline params in cryptsetup generator
* hw watchdog: optionally try to use the preset watchdog timeout instead of always overriding it
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54712
* Query Paul Moore about relabelling socket fds while they are open
-* system.conf should have controls for cgroups
-
* allow writing multiple conditions in unit files on one line
* explore multiple service instances per listening socket idea
when done. That means clients don't get a successful method reply,
but much rather a disconnect on success.
-* remember which condition failed for services, not just the fact that something failed
-
-* use opterr = 0 for all getopt tools
-
* properly handle loop back mounts via fstab, especially regards to fsck/passno
* allow services with no ExecStart= but with an ExecStop=
- syscall filter: port to libseccomp
- system-wide seccomp filter
-* .device aliases need to be implemented with the "following" logic, probably.
-
* load-fragment: when loading a unit file via a chain of symlinks
verify that it isn't masked via any of the names traversed.
* introduce Type=pid-file
-* maybe allow services with ExecStop= set, but no ExecStart=?
-
* change Requires=basic.target to RequisiteOverride=basic.target
-* support rd.luks.allow-discards= kernel cmdline params in cryptsetup generator
-
-* drop accountsservice's StandardOutput=syslog and Type=dbus fields
-
* when breaking cycles drop sysv services first, then services from /run, then from /etc, then from /usr
-* move passno parsing to fstab generator
-
* automount: implement expire:
- set superblock timeout AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_TIMEOUT_CMD
- periodically run AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_EXPIRE_CMD
- answer expire packet on pipe with AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_{READY,FAIL}_CMD
- AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_EXPIRE_CMD returns
-* services which create their own subcgroups break cgroup-empty notification (needs to be fixed in the kernel)
-
* ExecOnFailure=/usr/bin/foo
-* ConditionSecurity= should learn about IMA and SMACK
-
* udev:
- remove src/udev/udev-builtin-firmware.c (CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER=n)
- move to LGPL
- - unify utf8 validator code with shared/
- kill scsi_id
- add trigger --subsystem-match=usb/usb_device device
-* cleanup syslog 'priority' vs. 'level' wording
-
-* dbus upstream still refers to dbus.target and shouldn't
-
* 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
-* support container_ttys=
-
* introduce mix of BindTo and Requisite
* add DeleteSocketsOnStop=yes|no option to socket units
* default unix qlen is too small (10). bump sysctl? add sockopt?
-* figure out whether we should leave dbus around during shutdown
-
-* dbus: in fedora, make /var/lib/dbus/machine-id a symlink to /etc/machine-id
-
-* dbus: move dbus to early boot
-
* save coredump in Windows/Mozilla minidump format
* support crash reporting operation modes (https://live.gnome.org/GnomeOS/Design/Whiteboards/ProblemReporting)
-* clean up session cgroups that remain after logout (think sshd), but eventually run empty
-
-* when an instanced service exits, remove its parent cgroup too if possible.
-
* default to actual 32bit PIDs, via /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max
* be able to specify a forced restart of service A where service B depends on, in case B
* when a bus name of a service disappears from the bus make sure to queue further activation requests
-* tmpfiles: apply "x" on "D" too (see patch from William Douglas)
+* tmpfiles:
+ - check systemd-tmpfiles for selinux context hookup for mknod(), symlink() and similar
+ - apply "x" on "D" too (see patch from William Douglas)
* for services: don't set $HOME in services unless requested
when we start a service in order to avoid confusion when a user
assumes starting a service is enough to make it accessible
+* support User= and Group= attributes for AF_UNIX sockets. (difficult, requires NSS from PID 1?)
+
* Make it possible to set the keymap independently from the font on
the kernel cmdline. Right now setting one resets also the other.
* support systemd.mask= on the kernel command line.
-* reuse mkdtemp namespace dirs in /tmp?
-
* recreate systemd's D-Bus private socket file on SIGUSR2
* Support --test based on current system state
* dot output for --test showing the 'initial transaction'
* port over to LISTEN_FDS/LISTEN_PID:
- - rpcbind (/var/run/rpcbind.sock!) HAVEPATCH
- - cups HAVEPATCH
- postfix, saslauthd
- apache/samba
- libvirtd (/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock-ro)
works with ^C
- add documentation to systemd.daemon
+* bootchart:
+ - plot per-process IO utilization
+ - group processes based on service association (cgroups)
+ - document initcall_debug
+ - kernel cmdline "bootchart" option for simplicity?
+
+* udev-link-config:
+ - Make sure ID_PATH is always exported and complete for
+ network devices where possible, so we can safely rely
+ on Path= matching
+ - Check if Driver= is broken, or just my driver (bcma)
+
+* sd-rtnl:
+ - improve container support, and add support for entering containers when reading
+ - add support for more attribute types
+
+* networkd:
+ - 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)
+
External:
* dbus:
- - dbus --user
- natively watch for dbus-*.service symlinks (PENDING)
- - allow specification of socket mode/umask when allocating DBusServer
- - allow disabling of fd passing when connecting a AF_UNIX connection
- - allow disabling of UID passing for AUTH EXTERNAL
- - always pass cred data along each message
- teach dbus to activate all services it finds in /etc/systemd/services/org-*.service
* fix alsa mixer restore to not print error when no config is stored
* kernel: add device_type = "fb", "fbcon" to class "graphics"
-* bootchart:
- - plot per-process IO utilization
- - group processes based on service association (cgroups)
- - document initcall_debug
- - put bootcharts in the journal

+* dbus: in fedora, make /var/lib/dbus/machine-id a symlink to /etc/machine-id
+
+* add "# export SYSTEMD_PAGER=" to bash login
+
+* /usr/bin/service should actually show the new command line
+
+* fedora: suggest auto-restart on failure, but not on success and not on coredump. also, ask people to think about changing the start limit logic. Also point people to RestartPreventExitStatus=, SuccessExitStatus=
+
+* fedora: F20: go timer units all the way, leave cron.daily for cron
+
+* neither pkexec nor sudo initialize environ[] from the PAM environment?
+
+* fedora: update policy to declare access mode and ownership of unit files to root:root 0644, and add an rpmlint check for it
Regularly:
* Use PR_SET_PROCTITLE_AREA if it becomes available in the kernel
-* %m in printf() instead of strerror(errno);
-
* pahole
* set_put(), hashmap_put() return values check. i.e. == 0 doesn't free()!
