2 * update COPYRIGHT in our README:
3 http://ftp-master.metadata.debian.org/changelogs//main/s/systemd/systemd_204-2_copyright
5 * the running hwdb seems not to pick up updated database files without
6 an explicit: udevadm control --reload
8 * enabling an instance unit creates pointless link, and
9 the unit will be started with getty@getty.service:
10 $ systemctl enable getty@.service
11 ln -s '/usr/lib/systemd/system/getty@.service' '/etc/systemd/system/getty.target.wants/getty@.service'
13 * check systemd-tmpfiles for selinux context hookup for mknod(), symlink() and similar
15 * swap units that are activated by one name but shown in the kernel under another are semi-broken
17 * Dangling symlinks of .automount unit files in .wants/ directories, set up
18 automount points even when the original .automount file did not exist
19 anymore. Only the .mount unit was still around.
21 * make polkit checks async
23 * properly handle .mount unit state tracking when two mount points are stacked one on top of another on the exact same mount point.
25 * ellipsize_mem must take into account multi-byte unicode characters, and
26 - make the resulting line the requested number of *characters*, not *bytes*,
27 - avoid truncuating multi-byte sequences in the middle.
31 * external: ps should gain colums for slice and machine
34 - localectl: support new converted x11→console keymaps
36 * when installing fedora with yum --installroot /var/run is a directory, not a symlink
37 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=975864
39 CGroup Rework Completion:
41 * introduce "mainpid" for scopes (or maybe not?)
43 * implement system-wide DefaultCPUAccounting=1 switch (and similar for blockio, memory?)
45 * implement per-slice CPUFairScheduling=1 switch
47 * handle jointly mounted controllers correctly
49 * make BlockIODeviceWeight=, BlockIODeviceBandwidth= runtime settable
51 * introduce high-level settings for RT budget, swappiness
53 * wiki: document new bus APIs of PID 1 (transient units, Reloading signal)
57 * unlink PID files of units after exit
59 * tiny tool that saves/restores backlight
61 * systemctl status output should should include list of triggering units and their status
63 * for transient units, instead of writing out drop-ins for all properties consider serializing them in the normal serialization stream
65 * logind: when logging out, remove user-owned sysv and posix IPC objects
67 * session scopes/user unit: add RequiresMountsFor for the home directory of the user
69 * add a man page containing packaging guidelines and recommending usage of things like Documentation=, PrivateTmp=, PrivateNetwork= and ReadOnlyDirectories=/etc /usr.
71 * journalctl: instead --after-cursor= maybe have a --cursor=XYZ+1 syntax?
73 * given that logind/machined now let PID 1 do all nasty work we can
74 probably reduce the capability set they retain substantially.
76 * btrfs raid assembly: some .device jobs stay stuck in the queue
78 * Fedora: add an rpmlint check that verifies that all unit files in the RPM are listed in %systemd_post macros.
80 * Fedora: post FPC ticket to move add %tmpfiles_create to the packaging guidelines
82 * make sure gdm doesn't use multi-user-x but the new default X configuration file, and then remove multi-user-x from systemd
84 * 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
86 * when a kernel driver logs in a tight loop we should ratelimit that too.
88 * "systemctl disable" of a unit instance removes all symlinks, should
89 only remove the instance symlink (systemctl disable of a template
90 unit however should remove them all).
92 * journald: optionally, log debug messages to /run but everything else to /var
94 * systemctl list-unit-files should list generated files (and probably with a new state "generated" for them, or so)
96 * do we really need both hasprefix() and startswith()?
98 * journald: when we drop syslog messages because the syslog socket is
99 full, make sure to write how many messages are lost as first thing
100 to syslog when it works again.
102 * man: the documentation of Restart= currently is very misleading and suggests the tools from ExecStartPre= might get restarted.
104 * load .d/*.conf dropins for device units
106 * add a fixed dbus path for "my own unit", "my own session", ... to PID1, logind, ...
108 * service_coldplug() appears to reinstall the wrong stop timeout watch?
110 * transient units: allow creating auxiliary units with the same call
112 * how to reset dynamically changed attributes sanely?
114 * when reloading configuration, apply new cgroup configuration
116 * journald: make sure ratelimit is actually really per-service with the new cgroup changes
118 * libsystemd-logind: sd_session_is_active() and friends: verify
119 validity of session name before appending it to a path
121 * gparted needs to disable auto-activation of mount units somehow, or
122 maybe we should stop doing auto-activation of this after boot
123 entirely. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=701676
124 Maybe take a BSD lock at the disk device node and teach udev to
125 check for that and suppress event handling.
127 * when a service changes state make reflect that in the
128 RUNNING/LISTENING states of its socket
130 * when recursively showing the cgroup hierarchy, optionally also show
131 the hierarchies of child processes
133 * document logic of auto/noauto and fail/nofail in fstab in systemd.mount or systemd-fstab-generator man page
135 * we should properly escape ssh hostnames we add into dbus server strings
137 * something pulls in pcre as so dep into our daemons such as hostnamed.
139 * document systemd-journal-flush.service properly
141 * change systemd-journal-flush into a service that stays around during
142 boot, and causes the journal to be moved back to /run on shutdown,
143 so that we don't keep /var busy. This needs to happen synchronously,
144 hence doing this via signals is not going to work.
146 * allow implementation of InaccessibleDirectories=/ plus
147 ReadOnlyDirectories=... for whitelisting files for a service.
150 - default policy (allow uid == 0 and our own uid)
151 - enforce alignment of pointers passed in
152 - when kdbus doesn't take our message without memfds, try again with memfds
153 - implement translator service
154 - port systemd to new library
155 - implement busname unit type in systemd
157 - merge busctl into systemctl or so?
158 - synthesize sd_bus_message objects from kernel messages
159 - properly implement name registry ioctls for kdbus
160 - get rid of object hash table, use decision tree everyhwere instead?
161 - implement monitor logic
162 - object vtable logic
165 * priority inheritance
167 * in the final killing spree, detect processes from the root directory, and
168 complain loudly if they have argv[0][0] == '@' set.
169 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=961044
171 * add an option to nspawn that uses seccomp to make socket(AF_NETLINK,
172 SOCK_RAW, NETLINK_AUDIT) fail the the appropriate error code that
173 makes the audit userspace to think auditing is not available in the
176 * Introduce a way how we can kill the main process of a service with KillSignal, but all processes with SIGKILL later on
177 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=952634
179 * maybe add a warning to the unit file parses where the access mode of unit files is nonsensical.
181 * investigate endianness issues of UUID vs. GUID
183 * dbus: when a unit failed to load (i.e. is in UNIT_ERROR state), we
184 should be able to safely try another attempt when the bus call LoadUnit() is invoked.
186 * if pam_systemd is invoked by su from a process that is outside of a
187 any session we should probably just become a NOP, since that's
188 usually not a real user session but just some system code that just
191 * add a pam module that passes the hdd passphrase into the PAM stack and then expires it, for usage by gdm auto-login.
193 * add a pam module that on password changes updates any LUKS slot where the password matches
195 * maybe add a generator that looks for "systemd.run=" on the kernel cmdline for container usercases...
197 * timedatctl, localectl: possibly make some commands work without the daemon, for chroot situations...
199 * logind: add Suspend() bus calls which take timestamps to fix double suspend issues when somebody hits suspend and closes laptop quickly.
201 * we need dynamic units
203 * cgtop: make cgtop useful in a container
206 - add 'set -e' to scripts in test/
207 - make stuff in test/ work with separate output dir
208 - remove all the duplicated code in test/
210 * systemctl delete x.snapshot leaves no trace in logs (at least at default level).
212 * make the coredump collector tool move itself into the user's cgroup
213 so that the coredump is properly written to the user's own journal
216 * seems that when we follow symlinks to units we prefer the symlink
217 destination path over /etc and /usr. We shouldn't do that. Instead
218 /etc should always override /run+/usr and also any symlink
221 * remove duplicate default deps logic from fstab-generator vs. mount.c
223 * when isolating, try to figure out a way how we implicitly can order
224 all units we stop before the isolating unit...
226 * add ConditionArchitecture= or so
228 * teach ConditionKernelCommandLine= globs or regexes (in order to match foobar={no,0,off})
230 * Support SO_REUSEPORT with socket activation:
231 - Let systemd maintain a pool of servers.
232 - Use for seamless upgrades, by running the new server before stopping the
235 * after all byte-wise realloc() is slow, even on glibc, so i guess we
236 need manual exponential loops after all
238 * BootLoaderSpec: drop allowing ext234 for $BOOT. Clarify that the
239 kernel has to be in $BOOT. Clarify that the boot loader should be
240 installed to the ESP. Define a way how an installer can figure out
241 whether a BLS compliant boot loader is installed.
243 * man: remove .include documentation, and instead push people to use .d/*.conf
245 * think about requeuing jobs when daemon-reload is issued? usecase:
246 the initrd issues a reload after fstab from the host is accessible
247 and we might want to requeue the mounts local-fs acquired through
250 * rework specifier logic so that we can distinguish OOM errors from other errors
252 * systemd-inhibit: make taking delay locks useful: support sending SIGINT or SIGTERM on PrepareForSleep()
254 * journal-or-kmsg is currently broken? See reverted commit 4a01181e460686d8b4a543b1dfa7f77c9e3c5ab8.
256 * remove any syslog support from log.c -- we probably can't do this before split-off udev is gone for good
258 * documentation: recommend to connect the timer units of a service to the service via Also= in [Install]
260 * add a tool that lists active timer units plus their next elapse and the time the units ran last
262 * man: document the very specific env the shutdown drop-in tools live in
264 * shutdown logging: store to EFI var, and store to USB stick?
266 * man: extend runlevel(8) to mention that runlevels suck, and are dead. Maybe add runlevel(7) with a note about that too
268 * systemctl: maybe add "systemctl add-wants" or so...
270 * man: add more examples to man pages
272 * man: maybe sort directives in man pages, and take sections from --help and apply them to man too
274 * write UI tool that pops up emergency messages from the journal as notification
276 * think about window-manager-run-as-user-service problem: exit 0 → activate shutdown.target; exit != 0 → restart service
278 * msgcatalog determine default language of entries from the catalog
279 file name. i.e. foobar.de_DE.catalog would set the default entry
280 name for the entries to de_DE if they aren't explicitly suffixed
283 * use "log level" rather than "log priority" everywhere
285 * timedate: have global on/off switches for auto-time (NTP), and auto-timezone that connman can subscribe to.
287 * Honour "-" prefix for InaccessibleDirectories= and ReadOnlyDirectories= to
288 suppress errors of the specified path doesn't exist
290 * dev-setup.c: when running in a container, create a tiny stub udev
291 database with the systemd tag set for all network interfaces found,
292 so that libudev reports them as present, and systemd's .device units
295 * merge unit_kill_common() and unit_kill_context()
297 * introduce ExecCondition= in services
300 - fsck hookup for the ESP mount is missing
301 - write man page for efi boot generator
302 - honor language efi variables for default language selection (if there are any?)
303 - honor timezone efi variables for default timezone selection (if there are any?)
304 - change bootctl to be backed by systemd-bootd to control temporary and persistent default boot goal plus efi variables
306 * maybe do not install getty@tty1.service symlink in /etc but in /usr?
308 * re-enable "make check" for gtk-doc (broken for unknown reason)
310 * fstab: add new mount option x-systemd-after=/foobar/waldo to allow manual dependencies to other mount points
311 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=812826
313 * print a nicer explanation if people use variable/specifier expansion in ExecStart= for the first word
315 * mount: turn dependency information from /proc/self/mountinfo into dependency information between systemd units.
318 - logind: optionally, ignore idle-hint logic for autosuspend, block suspend as long as a session is around
319 - When we update the kernel all kind of hibernation should be prohibited until shutdown/reboot
320 - logind: wakelock/opportunistic suspend support
321 - Add pretty name for seats in logind
322 - logind: allow showing logout dialog from system?
323 - logind: spawn user@..service on login
324 - logind: non-local X11 server handling
325 - logind: add equivalent to sd_pid_get_owner_uid() to the D-Bus API
326 - pam: when leaving a session explicitly exclude the ReleaseSession() caller process from the killing spree
327 - logind: GetSessionByPID() should accept 0 as PID value
328 - we should probably handle SIGTERM/SIGINT to not leave dot files around, just in case
330 * exec: when deinitializating a tty device fix the perms and group, too, not only when initializing. Set access mode/gid to 0620/tty.
332 * DeviceAllow/DeviceDeny: disallow everything by default, but whitelist /dev/zero, /dev/null and friends
334 * service: watchdog logic: for testing purposes allow ping, but do not require pong
337 - do not use magic msync() in src/journal/journal-file.c, just call fsync()
338 <alxchk> poettering: looks like msync just calls vfs_fsync
339 http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/mm/msync.c#n18
340 - import and delete pstore filesystem content at startup
341 - journald: also get thread ID from client, plus thread name
342 - journal: when waiting for journal additions in the client always sleep at least 1s or so, in order to minimize wakeups
343 - add API to close/reopen/get fd for journal client fd in libsystemd-journal.
344 - fallback to /dev/log based logging in libsystemd-journal, if we can't log natively?
345 - declare the local journal protocol stable in the wiki interface chart
346 - journal: reuse XZ context
347 - sd-journal: speed up sd_journal_get_data() with transparent hash table in bg
348 - journald: when dropping msgs due to ratelimit make sure to write
349 "dropped %u messages" not only when we are about to print the next
350 message that works, but alraedy after a short tiemout
351 - check if we can make journalctl by default use --follow mode inside of less if called without args?
352 - maybe add API to send pairs of iovecs via sd_journal_send
353 - journal: when writing journal auto-rotate if time jumps backwards
354 - journal: add a setgid "systemd-journal" utility to invoke from libsystemd-journal, which passes fds via STDOUT and does PK access
355 - journactl: support negative filtering, i.e. FOOBAR!="waldo",
356 and !FOOBAR for events without FOOBAR.
357 - journal: when rotating, copy over old acls/access mode
358 - journal: send out marker messages every now and then, and immediately sync with fdatasync() afterwards, in order to have hourly guaranteed syncs.
359 - 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.
360 - journal: find a way to allow dropping history early, based on priority, other rules
361 - journal: When used on NFS, check payload hashes
362 - journald: check whether it is OK if the client can still modify delivered journal entries
363 - journal live copy, based on libneon (client) and libmicrohttpd (server)
364 - journald: add kernel cmdline option to disable ratelimiting for debug purposes
365 - refuse taking lower-case variable names in sd_journal_send() and friends.
366 - journald: we currently rotate only after MaxUse+MaxFilesize has been reached.
367 - journal: deal nicely with byte-by-byte copied files, especially regards header
368 - journalctl: expand tabs
369 - journal: store euid in journal if it differs from uid
370 - journal: sanely deal with entries which are larger than the individual file size, but where the components would fit
371 - Replace utmp, wtmp, btmp, and lastlog completely with journal
372 - Port upower to use the journal for historical power information used in future calculations
375 - document unit_name_mangle()
376 - document that deps in [Unit] sections ignore Alias= fileds in
377 [Install] units of other units, unless those units are disabled
378 - man: clarify that time-sync.target is not only sysv compat but also useful otherwise. Same for similar targets
379 - Document word splitting syntax for ExecStart= and friends
380 - document that units from /etc override those from /usr and /run
381 - document the exit codes when services fail before they are exec()ed
382 - document that service reload may be implemented as service reexec
383 - document in wiki how to map ical recurrence events to systemd timer unit calendar specifications
386 - systemctl list-jobs - show dependencies
387 - add systemctl switch to dump transaction without executing it
388 - Add a verbose mode to "systemctl start" and friends that explains what is being done or not done
389 - "systemctl disable" on a static unit prints no message and does
390 nothing. "systemctl enable" does nothing, and gives a bad message
391 about it. Should fix both to print nice actionable messages.
392 - print nice message from systemctl --failed if there are no entries shown, and hook that into ExecStartPre of rescue.service/emergency.service
393 - add new command to systemctl: "systemctl system-reexec" which reexecs as many daemons as virtually possible
394 - systemctl enable: improve the success messages (i.e. more human readable, less shell-like)
395 - systemctl enable: fail if target to alias into doesn't exist? maybe show how many units are enabled afterwards?
396 - systemctl: "Journal has been rotated since unit was started." message is misleading
397 - support "systemctl stop foobar@.service" to stop all units matching a certain template
398 - Something is wrong with symlink handling of "autovt@.service" in "systemctl list-unit-files"
400 * introduce ntp.service (or suchlike) as symlink that is used to arbitrate between various NTP implementations
402 * deal with sendmail/postfix exclusivity
405 - configurable jitter for timer events
406 - timer events with system resume
407 - timer units should get the ability to trigger when:
408 o CLOCK_REALTIME makes jumps (TFD_TIMER_CANCEL_ON_SET)
410 - Support 2012-02~4 as syntax for specifying the fourth to last day of the month.
412 * update the kernel's TZ (sys_tz) when DST changes
414 * sync down the system time to the RTC when:
415 - CLOCK_REALTIME makes jumps (the user explicitely requested a time set)
416 - DST/timezone changes && ntp is active && RTC-in-localtime (never do it without ntp)
417 This takes care of syncing ntpdate updates to the RTC, and DST updates for localtime
418 mode, it will never touch the RTC if the no reliable time source is active or the
419 user did not request anything like it.
421 * if booted in "quiet" mode, and an error happens, turn on status
422 output again, so that the emergency mode isn't totally
423 surprising. Also, terminate plymouth.
425 * libunwind support for coredump pattern hook, and includes this in
426 the message for coredumps. After all, libunwind is now capable to
427 unwind coredumps since a few weeks ago. This probably requires that
428 we have nice support for multi-line messages on display in
429 logs-show.c. Alternatively: use libelfutil, which seems to be the
430 better supported alternative.
432 * figure out relation of --all and --full in the various tools
434 * add libsystemd-password or so to query passwords during boot using the password agent logic
436 * 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().
438 * fedup: add --unit to systemctl switch-root somehow
439 * fedup: don't delete initrd on switch-root
443 - timedated: refuse time changes when NTP is on
445 * clean up date formatting and parsing so that all absolute/relative timestamps we format can also be parsed
447 * introduce generic AUGMENT_PID=, AUGMENT_DEVICE= fields
449 * on shutdown: move utmp, wall, audit logic all into PID 1 (or logind?), get rid of systemd-update-utmp-runlevel
451 * add "provisioning" instructions to setup an empty /etc + /var
452 - used to setup a new container from a shared /usr
453 - superset of tmpfiles model
454 - instructions shipped by packages and stored in /usr/lib/
455 - compose /etc/passwd and /etc/group, copy files
456 - able to create uid + gid used by packages, for file ownership
458 * make repeated alt-ctrl-del presses printing a dump, or even force a reboot without
459 waiting for the timeout
461 * high level net_prio setting in execution context
463 * hostnamed: before returning information from /etc/machine-info.conf check the modification data and reread. Similar for localed, ...
465 * currently x-systemd.timeout is lost in the initrd, since crypttab is copied into dracut, but fstab isn't
467 * refuse boot if /etc/machine-id is not useful (or set taint?)
470 - nspawn: consider changing users for -u with su, so that NSS resolving works correctly
471 - nspawn: implement personality changes a la linux32(8)
472 - nspawn: --read-only is not applied recursively to submounts
473 - nspawn: make use of device cgroup controller by default
474 - bind mount read-only the cgroup tree higher than nspawn
475 - nspawn: investigate whether we can support the same as LXC's
476 lxc.network.type=phys mode, and pass through entire network
477 interfaces to the container
478 - nspawn: maybe add a way to drop additional caps, in addition to add additional caps
479 - nspawn: maybe explicitly reset loginuid?
480 - nspawn: make it work for dwalsh and shared /usr containers -- tmpfs mounts as command line parameters, selinux exec context
483 - cryptsetup-generator: allow specification of passwords in crypttab itself
484 - move cryptsetup key caching into kernel keyctl?
485 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54982
486 - support rd.luks.allow-discards= kernel cmdline params in cryptsetup generator
488 * move debug shell to tty6 and make sure this doesn't break the gettys on tty6
490 * hw watchdog: optionally try to use the preset watchdog timeout instead of always overriding it
491 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54712
493 * after deserializing sockets in socket.c we should reapply sockopts and things
495 * make timer units go away after they elapsed
497 * http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2012-September/006502.html
498 (network and remote-fs on shutdown)
500 * come up with a nice way to write queue/read_ahead_kb for a block device without interfering with readahead
502 * move PID 1 segfaults to /var/lib/systemd/coredump?
504 * create /sbin/init symlinks from the build system
506 * Query Paul Moore about relabelling socket fds while they are open
508 * system.conf should have controls for cgroups
510 * allow writing multiple conditions in unit files on one line
512 * explore multiple service instances per listening socket idea
514 * shutdown: don't read-only mount anything when running in container
516 * MountFlags=shared acts as MountFlags=slave right now.
518 * ReadOnlyDirectories= is not applied recursively to submounts
520 * drop PID 1 reloading, only do reexecing (difficult: Reload()
521 currently is properly synchronous, Reexec() is weird, because we
522 can't delay the response properly until we are back, so instead of
523 being properly synchronous we just keep open the fd and close it
524 when done. That means clients don't get a successful method reply,
525 but much rather a disconnect on success.
527 * use opterr = 0 for all getopt tools
529 * properly handle loop back mounts via fstab, especially regards to fsck/passno
531 * allow services with no ExecStart= but with an ExecStop=
533 * dracut-shutdown needs to be ordered before unmounting /boot
535 * initialize the hostname from the fs label of /, if /etc/hostname does not exist?
537 * rename "userspace" to "core-os"
540 - syscall filter: add knowledge about compat syscalls
541 - syscall filter: don't enforce no new privs?
542 - syscall filter: option to return EPERM rather than SIGSYS?
543 - syscall filter: port to libseccomp
544 - system-wide seccomp filter
546 * .device aliases need to be implemented with the "following" logic, probably.
548 * load-fragment: when loading a unit file via a chain of symlinks
549 verify that it isn't masked via any of the names traversed.
551 * introduce Type=pid-file
553 * change Requires=basic.target to RequisiteOverride=basic.target
555 * when breaking cycles drop sysv services first, then services from /run, then from /etc, then from /usr
557 * move passno parsing to fstab generator
559 * automount: implement expire:
560 - set superblock timeout AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_TIMEOUT_CMD
561 - periodically run AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_EXPIRE_CMD
562 - every timeout/4 (original autofs logic)
563 - blocking, needs a thread
565 - receive expire packet on pipe if kernel tells the timeout is over
567 - answer expire packet on pipe with AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_{READY,FAIL}_CMD
568 - AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_EXPIRE_CMD returns
570 * services which create their own subcgroups break cgroup-empty notification (needs to be fixed in the kernel)
572 * ExecOnFailure=/usr/bin/foo
575 - remove src/udev/udev-builtin-firmware.c (CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER=n)
577 - unify utf8 validator code with shared/
579 - add trigger --subsystem-match=usb/usb_device device
581 * cleanup syslog 'priority' vs. 'level' wording
583 * 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
585 * support container_ttys=
587 * introduce mix of BindTo and Requisite
589 * add DeleteSocketsOnStop=yes|no option to socket units
591 * There's currently no way to cancel fsck (used to be possible via C-c or c on the console)
593 * add option to sockets to avoid activation. Instead just drop packets/connections, see http://cyberelk.net/tim/2012/02/15/portreserve-systemd-solution/
595 * default unix qlen is too small (10). bump sysctl? add sockopt?
597 * save coredump in Windows/Mozilla minidump format
599 * support crash reporting operation modes (https://live.gnome.org/GnomeOS/Design/Whiteboards/ProblemReporting)
601 * clean up session cgroups that remain after logout (think sshd), but eventually run empty
603 * when an instanced service exits, remove its parent cgroup too if possible.
605 * default to actual 32bit PIDs, via /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max
607 * be able to specify a forced restart of service A where service B depends on, in case B
608 needs to be auto-respawned?
610 * when a bus name of a service disappears from the bus make sure to queue further activation requests
612 * tmpfiles: apply "x" on "D" too (see patch from William Douglas)
614 * for services: don't set $HOME in services unless requested
616 * hide PAM/TCPWrap options in fragment parser when compile time disabled
618 * when we automatically restart a service, ensure we restart its rdeps, too.
620 * allow Type=simple with PIDFile=
621 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=723942
623 * move PAM code into its own binary
625 * implement Register= switch in .socket units to enable registration
626 in Avahi, RPC and other socket registration services.
628 * make sure systemd-ask-password-wall does not shutdown systemd-ask-password-console too early
630 * support sd_notify() style notification when reload begins (RELOADING=1), reload is finished (READY=1), and add ReloadSignal= then to use in combination
632 * support sd_notify() style notification when shutting down, to make auto-exit bus services work (STOPPING=1)
634 * verify that the AF_UNIX sockets of a service in the fs still exist
635 when we start a service in order to avoid confusion when a user
636 assumes starting a service is enough to make it accessible
638 * Make it possible to set the keymap independently from the font on
639 the kernel cmdline. Right now setting one resets also the other.
641 * and a dbus call to generate target from current state
644 - drop /.readahead on bigger upgrades with yum
645 - move readahead files into /var (look for them with .path units?)
646 - readahead: use BTRFS_IOC_DEFRAG_RANGE instead of BTRFS_IOC_DEFRAG ioctl, with START_IO
647 - readahead: when bumping /sys readahead variable save mtime and compare later to detect changes
648 - readahead: make use of EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT, as used by http://e4rat.sourceforge.net/
650 * add support for /bin/mount -s
652 * GC unreferenced jobs (such as .device jobs)
654 * write blog stories about:
655 - hwdb: what belongs into it, lsusb
656 - enabling dbus services
658 - how to make changes to sysctl and sysfs attributes
660 - how to pass throw-away units to systemd, or dynamically change properties of existing units
661 - how to integrate cgconfig and suchlike with systemd
662 - testing with Harald's awesome test kit
664 - how to develop against journal browsing APIs
665 - the journal HTTP iface
666 - non-cgroup resource management
667 - dynamic resource management with cgroups
668 - refreshed, longer missions statement
669 - calendar time events
670 - init=/bin/sh vs. "emergency" mode, vs. "rescue" mode, vs. "multi-user" mode, vs. "graphical" mode, and the debug shell
671 - how to create your own target
672 - instantiated apache, dovecot and so on
673 - hooking a script into various stages of shutdown/rearly booot
675 * allow port=0 in .socket units
677 * support systemd.mask= on the kernel command line.
679 * recreate systemd's D-Bus private socket file on SIGUSR2
681 * Support --test based on current system state
683 * investigate whether the gnome pty helper should be moved into systemd, to provide cgroup support.
685 * maybe introduce ExecRestartPre=
687 * dot output for --test showing the 'initial transaction'
689 * port over to LISTEN_FDS/LISTEN_PID:
690 - rpcbind (/var/run/rpcbind.sock!) HAVEPATCH
694 - libvirtd (/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock-ro)
695 - bluetoothd (/var/run/sdp! @/org/bluez/audio!)
698 * fingerprint.target, wireless.target, gps.target, netdevice.target
700 * io priority during initialization
702 * drop cap bounding set in readahead and other services
705 - figure out a simple way to wait for journal events in a way that
707 - add documentation to systemd.daemon
710 - plot per-process IO utilization
711 - group processes based on service association (cgroups)
712 - document initcall_debug
713 - kernel cmdline "bootchart" option for simplicity?
719 - natively watch for dbus-*.service symlinks (PENDING)
720 - allow specification of socket mode/umask when allocating DBusServer
721 - allow disabling of fd passing when connecting a AF_UNIX connection
722 - allow disabling of UID passing for AUTH EXTERNAL
723 - always pass cred data along each message
724 - teach dbus to activate all services it finds in /etc/systemd/services/org-*.service
726 * fix alsa mixer restore to not print error when no config is stored
728 * make cryptsetup lower --iter-time
730 * patch kernel for xattr support in /dev, /proc/, /sys?
732 * NTP: the kernel's 11-minutes-mode syncs the system time to the RTC, but only
733 in an ~30 minutes window. It does not adjust larger differences. Find a way
734 to tell the kernel, to always do a full time sync when the RTC is in UTC and
735 we are in 11-minutes-mode. When we trust the system time to NTP we also want
738 * kernel: add device_type = "fb", "fbcon" to class "graphics"
740 * drop accountsservice's StandardOutput=syslog and Type=dbus fields
742 * dbus upstream still refers to dbus.target and shouldn't
744 * dbus: in fedora, make /var/lib/dbus/machine-id a symlink to /etc/machine-id
746 * add "# export SYSTEMD_PAGER=" to bash login
748 * /usr/bin/service should actually show the new command line
750 * 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=
752 * fedora: F20: go timer units all the way, leave cron.daily for cron
754 * neither pkexec nor sudo initialize environ[] from the PAM environment?
756 * fedora: update policy to declare access mode and ownership of unit files to root:root 0644, and add an rpmlint check for it
760 * look for close() vs. close_nointr() vs. close_nointr_nofail()
762 * check for strerror(r) instead of strerror(-r)
764 * Use PR_SET_PROCTITLE_AREA if it becomes available in the kernel
766 * %m in printf() instead of strerror(errno);
770 * set_put(), hashmap_put() return values check. i.e. == 0 doesn't free()!
772 * use secure_getenv() instead of getenv() where appropriate
774 * link up selected blog stories from man pages and unit files Documentation= fields
776 Scheduled for removal or fixing:
778 * xxxOverridable dependencies (probably: fix)
