3 * swap units that are activated by one name but shown in the kernel under another are semi-broken
5 * NFS, networkmanager ordering issue (PENDING)
7 * NM should pull in network.target (PENDING)
8 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=692008
10 * ntpd should pull in time-sync.target. (PENDING)
12 * bluetooth should be possible to disable (PENDING)
14 * add fstab fields to add wait timeouts, change Wants to Requires by local-fs.target
16 * bind mounts are ignored
17 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=682662
19 * 0595f9a1c182a84581749823ef47c5f292e545f9 is borked, freezes shutdown
20 (path: after installing inotify watches, recheck file again to fix race)
26 * fix alsa mixer restore to not print error when no config is stored
28 * don't trim empty cgroups
29 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=678555
31 * show enablement status in systemctl status
33 * write blog stories about:
34 - chroot, nspawn and friends
35 - the blame game: systemd-analyze
36 - enabling dbus services
39 * allow port = 0 in .socket units
41 * rename systemd-logger to systemd-stdio-syslog-bridge
43 * introduce /usr/lib/binfmt.d/, /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/
45 * in pam_systemd: don't rely on /proc/self/loginuid in a container (check if audit caps are there)
47 * take BSD file lock on tty devices when using them?
49 * tmpfiles should allow two identical lines
50 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=690253
52 * avoid any flag files, or readahead files in /, we need to support r/o /
53 or / on tmpfs like Android setups.
55 * teach dbus to activate all services it finds in /etc/systemd/services/org-*.service
57 * get process transport into dbus for systemctl -P/-H
59 * document default dependencies
61 * support systemd.whitelist=/systemd.blacklist= on the kernel command
64 * Find a way to replace /var/run, /var/lock directories with
65 symlinks during an RPM package upgrade (filesystem.rpm or systemd.rpm).
66 We soon want to get rid of var-run.mount var-lock.mount units.
68 * when key file cannot be found, read it from kbd in cryptsetup
70 * add switch to systemctl to show enabled but not running services. Or
71 another switch that shows service that have been running since
72 booting but aren't running anymore.
74 * reuse mkdtemp namespace dirs in /tmp?
76 * don't strip facility from kmsg log messages as soon as that is possible:
77 http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=9d90c8d9cde929cbc575098e825d7c29d9f45054
79 * recreate systemd's D-Bus private socket file on SIGUSR2
81 * be more specific what failed:
83 Unmounting file systems.
84 Not all file systems unmounted, 1 left.
86 Detaching loop devices.
88 Cannot finalize remaining file systems and devices, trying to kill remaining processes.
89 Unmounting file systems.
90 Not all file systems unmounted, 1 left.
91 Cannot finalize remaining file systems and devices, giving up.
94 * check for compiled-in, but not active selinux, and don't print any warnings
95 about policy loading. Probably check for available selinux in /proc/filesystems,
96 and check for active selinux with getcon_raw() == "kernel"
98 * Support --test based on current system state
100 * consider services with no [Install] section and stored in /lib enabled by "systemctl is-enabled"
102 * systemctl enable as D-Bus call
104 * consider services with any kind of link in /etc/systemd/system enabled
106 * show failure error string in "systemctl status"
108 * make sure timeouts are applied to Type=oneshot services.
110 * Maybe implement "systemctl mask" and "systemctl unmask", but not
111 document it? When doing that add switch to make this temporary by
112 placing mask links in /dev.
113 Consider moving the actual fs operations into systemd behind a D-Bus
114 interface, to make namespaces/containers/remote connections work properly.
116 * detect LXC environment
118 * invoke vhangup() before and after invoking getty
119 http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=3c95c985fa91ecf6a0e29622bbdd13dcfc5ce9f1
121 * support "auto" and "comment=systemd.automount" at the same time for an fstab entry
123 * Maybe store in unit files whether a service should be enabled by default on package installation
124 (belongs into a distro pattern though, not in an upstream package's service file)
126 * perhaps add "systemctl reenable" as combination of "systemctl disable" and "systemctl enable"
128 * need a way to apply mount options of api vfs from systemd unit files
129 (or some other modern source?) instead of fstab
131 * maybe introduce ExecRestartPre=
133 * figure out what happened to bluez patch
135 * Patch systemd-fsck to use -C and pass console fd to it
137 * support remote/ssh systemctl/systemadm, and local privileged access → dbus patches need to be merged
139 * configurable jitter for timer events
141 * Support ProcessNeededForShutdown=true to allow stuff like mdmon
142 to be killed very late after the rootfs is read only (?)
144 * Integrate "mdadm --wait-clean". Maybe just let SIGTERM to mdmon trigger the
147 * dot output for --test showing the 'initial transaction'
149 * calendar time support in timer, iCalendar semantics for the timer stuff (RFC2445)
150 - check timerfd() patch: http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/11/23/290
153 - get PR_SET_ANCHOR merged: http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/2/2/165
156 - provide CK functionality
157 - start getty only when actual vt switch happens (same model as
158 socket on-demand activation). allocate the next free tty and
159 start a getty there. this way, pressing alt-f[1-12] will switch
160 through running X and getty sessions, and any unallocated
161 activated tty will start a new getty. the hardcoding of
162 getty[1-6] will entirely go away.
163 - http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/gregkh/tty-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=fbc92a3455577ab17615cbcb91826399061bd789
165 * implicitly import "defaults" settings file into all types
167 * port over to LISTEN_FDS/LISTEN_PID:
169 - rpcbind (/var/run/rpcbind.sock!) HAVEPATCH
173 - libvirtd (/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock-ro)
174 - bluetoothd (/var/run/sdp! @/org/bluez/audio!)
177 * fingerprint.target, wireless.target, gps.target, netdevice.target
179 * set_put(), hashmap_put() return values check. i.e. == 0 doesn't free()!
181 * io priority during initialization
183 * if a service fails too often, make the service enter failed mode, and the socket, too.
185 * systemctl list-jobs - show dependencies
187 * accountsservice is borked
189 * auditd service files
191 * add systemctl switch to dump transaction without executing it
193 * suspend, resume support?
195 * readahead: btrfs/LVM SSD detection
197 * add separate man page for [Install] settings
199 * allow runtime changing of log level and target
203 * udisks should not use udisks-part-id, instead use blkid. also not probe /dev/loopxxx
205 * snd-seq should go, https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=676095
207 * gnome-shell python script/glxinfo/is-accelerated must die
209 * make cryptsetup lower --iter-time
211 * patch kernel for xattr support in /dev, /proc/, /sys and /sys/fs/cgroup.
213 * patch kernel for cpu feature modalias for autoloading aes/kvm/...
214 http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/ak/linux-misc-2.6.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/cpuid-match
215 (Rafael J. Wysocki's sysdev rework is on the way. After that CPUs can be exported a proper bus.)
217 * procps, psmisc, sysvinit-tools, hostname → util-linux-ng

240 * look for close() vs. close_nointr() vs. close_nointr_nofail()
242 * check for strerror(r) instead of strerror(-r)
244 * Use PR_SET_PROCTITLE_AREA if it becomes available in the kernel
246 * %m in printf() instead of strerror();
250 * CFLAGS="-Wl,--gc-sections -Wl,--print-gc-sections -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections"
