1 Fixes needed before 217:
3 * sd_session_get_desktop() yells at me?
5 * change startup timeout to not cover the full bootup, but only sysinit part (see below)
7 * remove Discard= in .mount units and replace it by Options=, to prepare for later swapon fix
9 * verify that both resolved and timesyncd work OK without networkd around
11 * push out allow-interactive-auth flag into dbus spec
15 * Should systemctl status \* work on all unit types, not just .service?
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 * properly handle .mount unit state tracking when two mount points are stacked one on top of another on the exact same mount point.
23 * ExecStart with unicode characters fails in strv_split_quoted:
26 Environment=ONE='one' "TWO='two two' too" THREE=
27 ExecStart=/bin/python3 -c 'import sys;print(sys.argv)' $ONE $TWO $THREE
29 * MEMORY return code is overloaded for syntax errors in the commandline.
30 str_split_quoted() should return a real return code, so spawn_child can
31 report the failure properly.
34 * Fedora: add an rpmlint check that verifies that all unit files in the RPM are listed in %systemd_post macros.
36 * Fedora: post FPC ticket to move add %tmpfiles_create to the packaging guidelines
38 * Fedora: move kernel image to /usr/lib/modules/, kernel-install will take care of populating /boot
40 * Fedora: remove /etc/resolv.conf tmpfiles hack
42 * wiki: update journal format documentation for lz4 additions
44 * When lz4 gets an API for lz4 command output, make use of it to
45 compress coredumps in a way compatible with /usr/bin/lz4.
49 * journald: allow per-priority and per-service retention times when rotating/vacuuming
51 * introduce systemd-timesync-wait.service or so to sync on an NTP fix?
53 * systemd --user should issue sd_notify() upon reaching basic.target, not on becoming idle
55 * configure.ac pretends dbus was optional but actually hardcodes use of dbus' pkg-config file to determine various dbus dirs such as policy and activation dirs
57 * consider showing the unit names during boot up in the status output, not just the unit descriptions
59 * send SIGABRT when a service watchdog is triggered, by default, so that we acquire a backtrace of the hang.
61 * shouldn't RouteMetric= in networkd's [DHCP] section move to [Network]?
63 * dhcp: do we allow configuring dhcp routes on interfaces that are not the one we got the dhcp info from?
65 * maybe allow timer units with an empty Units= setting, so that they
66 can be used for resuming the system but nothing else.
68 * what to do about udev db binary stability for apps?
70 * add a system-wide shutdown timeout, similar to the startup timeout we already have (see fdo bz #84110)
72 * maybe provide an API to allow migration of foreign PIDs into existing scopes.
74 * kdbus: maybe rename "connection name" concept to something that doesn't reuse the word "name"?
76 * PID 1 doesn't apply nspawns devices cgroup policy
78 * rework journal-send.c to use memfds for large blobs if they are available instead of unlinked files in /tmp. Also, if we detect that the kernel knows memfds, refuse anything but sealed memfds.
80 * maybe support a new very "soft" reboot mode, that simply kills all processes, disassembles everything, flushes /run and sysvipc, and then reexecs systemd again
82 * man: document that corrupted journal files is nothing to act on
84 * bus-proxy: when passing messages from kdbus, make sure we properly
85 handle the case where a large number of fds is appended that we
86 cannot pass into sendmsg() of the AF_UNIX sokcet (which only accepts
89 * busctl: add a pcap writer, using LINKTYPE_DBUS/231
91 * man: maybe use the word "inspect" rather than "introspect"?
93 * introduce machines.target to order after all nspawn instances
95 * systemd-nspawn@.service should fail if some nspawn arg is invalid, with Type=notify
97 * "machinectl list" should probably show columns for OS version and IP addresses
99 * systemctl: if it fails, show log output?
101 * maybe add "systemctl edit" that copies unit files from /usr/lib/systemd/system to /etc/systemd/system and invokes vim on them
103 * dbus: add new message hdr field for allowing interactive auth, write spec for it. update dbus spec to mandate that unknown flags *must* be ignored...
105 * maybe introduce AssertXYZ= similar to ConditionXYZ= that causes a unit to fail (instead of skipping it) if some condition is not true...
107 * remove multi-seat-x now
109 * refcounting in sd-resolve is borked
111 * exponential backoff in timesyncd and resolved when we cannot reach a server
113 * apply start timeout during the "initializing" manager state only,
114 instead of both "initializing" and "starting". maybe rename the
115 timeout to "initialization-timeout" then or so?
117 * journald: make use of uid-range.h to managed uid ranges to split
120 * tmpfiles: port to unquote_many_words(), similar to sysusers
122 * unquote_many_words() should probably be used by a lot of code that
123 currently uses FOREACH_WORD and friends. For example, most conf
124 parsing callbacks should use it.
126 * logind: make the Suspend()/Hibernate() bus calls wait for the for
127 the job to be completed. before returning, so that clients can wait
128 for "systemctl suspend" to finish to know when the suspending is
131 * merge ~/.local/share and ~/.local/lib into one similar /usr/lib and /usr/share....
133 * journald: allows specification of UID range for splitting up journal files
135 * systemd.show_status= should probably have a mode where only failed
139 - add LLDP client side support
140 - the DHCP lease data (such as NTP/DNS) is still made available when
141 a carrier is lost on a link. It should be removed instantly.
142 - .network setting that allows overriding of the hostname to send to the dhcp server
143 http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2014-July/021550.html
144 - expose in the API the following bits:
145 - option 15, domain name and/or option 119, search list
146 - option 12, host name and/or option 81, fqdn
147 - option 100, 101, timezone
148 - option 123, 144, geolocation
149 - option 252, configure http proxy (PAC/wpad)
150 - networkd's dhcp server should transparently pass on the DNS and
151 NTP server list it got from user configuration and its dhcp client
152 to clients. It should also pass on its own timezone information.
153 - provide a way to define a per-network interface default metric value
154 for all routes to it. possibly a second default for DHCP routes.
155 - allow Name= to be specified repeatedly in the [Match] section. Maybe also
156 support Name=foo*|bar*|baz ?
159 - put networkd events and rtnl events at a higher priority, so that
160 we always process them before we process client requests
162 - use base64 for key presentation?
163 - add display of private key types (http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4034#appendix-A.1.1)?
164 - add nice formatting of DNS timestamps
169 - DNS-SD service registration from socket units
174 * Ignore .busname units on classic D-Bus boots, systemd-resolved cannot be started on kdbus
175 without the active policy and should get a Wants=org.freedesktop.resolve1.busname to
178 * Allow multiple ExecStart= for all Type= settings, so that we can cover rescue.service nicely
180 * Add a new verb "systemctl top"
182 * logind: allow users to kill or lock their own sessions
184 * add new gpt type for btrfs volumes
186 * support empty /etc boots nicely:
187 - nspawn/gpt-generator: introduce new gpt partition type for /usr
188 - fstab-generator: support systemd.volatile=yes|no|state on the kernel cmdline, too, similar to nspawn's --volatile=
189 - fstab-generator: add support for usr= in addition to root= on the kernel cmdline
191 * generator that automatically discovers btrfs subvolumes, identifies their purpose based on some xattr on them.
193 * support setting empty environment variables with Environment= and EnvironmentFile=
195 * timer units: actually add extra delays to timer units with high AccuracySec values, don't start them already when we are awake...
197 * a way for container managers to turn off getty starting via $container_headless= or so...
199 * figure out a nice way how we can let the admin know what child/sibling unit causes cgroup membership for a specific unit
201 * journalctl: add the ability to look for the most recent process of a binary. journalctl /usr/bin/X11 --pid=-1 or so...
203 * mount_cgroup_controllers(): symlinks need to get the label applied
205 * For timer units: add some mechanisms so that timer units that trigger immediately on boot do not have the services
206 they run added to the initial transaction and thus confuse Type=idle.
208 * Run most system services with cgroupfs read-only and procfs with a more secure mode (doesn't work, since the hidepid= option is per-pid-namespace, not per-mount)
210 * sd-event: generate a failure of a default event loop is executed out-of-thread
212 * expose "Locked" property on logind sesison objects
214 * add bus api to query unit file's X fields.
216 * consider adding RuntimeDirectoryUser= + RuntimeDirectoryGroup=
218 * sd-event: define more intervals where we will shift wakeup intervals around in, 1h, 6h, 24h, ...
220 * gpt-auto-generator:
221 - Support LUKS for root devices
222 - Define new partition type for encrypted swap? Support probed LUKS for encrypted swap?
223 - Make /home automount rather than mount?
225 * improve journalctl performance by loading journal files
226 lazily. Encode just enough information in the file name, so that we
227 do not have to open it to know that it is not interesting for us, for
228 the most common operations.
230 * add generator that pulls in systemd-network from containers when
231 CAP_NET_ADMIN is set, more than the loopback device is defined, even
232 when it is otherwise off
234 * MessageQueueMessageSize= and RLimitFSIZE= (and suchlike) should use parse_iec_size().
236 * "busctl status" works only as root on dbus1, since we cannot read
239 * implement Distribute= in socket units to allow running multiple
240 service instances processing the listening socket, and open this up
243 * socket units: support creating sockets in different namespace,
244 opening it up for JoinsNamespaceOf=. This would require to fork off
245 a tiny process that joins the namespace and creates/binds the socket
246 and passes this back to PID1 via SCM_RIGHTS. This also could be used
247 to allow Chown/chgrp on sockets without requiring NSS in PID 1.
249 * New service property: maximum CPU and wallclock runtime for a service
251 * introduce bus call FreezeUnit(s, b), as well as "systemctl freeze
252 $UNIT" and "systemctl thaw $UNIT" as wrappers around this. The calls
253 should SIGSTOP all unit processes in a loop until all processes of
254 it are fully stopped. This can later be used for app management by
255 desktop UIs such as gnome-shell to freeze apps that are not visible
256 on screen, not unlike how job control works on the shell
259 - manager property enumeration was broken when systemd moved to /usr/lib/
262 - implement per-slice CPUFairScheduling=1 switch
263 - handle jointly mounted controllers correctly
264 - introduce high-level settings for RT budget, swappiness
265 - how to reset dynamically changed unit cgroup attributes sanely?
266 - when reloading configuration, apply new cgroup configuration
267 - when recursively showing the cgroup hierarchy, optionally also show
268 the hierarchies of child processes
271 - allow creating auxiliary units with the same call
272 - add field to transient units that indicate whether systemd or somebody else saves/restores its settings, for integration with libvirt
273 - ensure scope units may be started only a single time
275 * Automatically configure swap partition to use for hibernation by looking for largest swap partition on the root disk?
277 * when we detect low battery and no AC on boot, show pretty splash and refuse boot
279 * machined, localed: when we try to kill an empty cgroup, generate an ESRCH error over the bus
281 * libsystemd-journal, libsystemd-login, libudev: add calls to easily attach these objects to sd-event event loops
283 * be more careful what we export on the bus as (usec_t) 0 and (usec_t) -1
285 * unify dispatch table in systemctl_main() and friends
287 * 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
289 * After coming back from hibernation reset hibernation swap partition using the /dev/snapshot ioctl APIs
291 * If we try to find a unit via a dangling symlink, generate a clean
292 error. Currently, we just ignore it and read the unit from the search
295 * refuse boot if /etc/os-release is missing or /etc/machine-id cannot be set up
297 * given that logind now lets PID 1 do all nasty work, we can
298 probably reduce the capability set it retains substantially.
299 (we need CAP_SYS_ADMIN for drmSetMaster(), so maybe not worth it)
301 * btrfs raid assembly: some .device jobs stay stuck in the queue
303 * make sure gdm does not use multi-user-x but the new default X configuration file, and then remove multi-user-x from systemd
305 * man: the documentation of Restart= currently is very misleading and suggests the tools from ExecStartPre= might get restarted.
307 * load .d/*.conf dropins for device units
309 * allow implementation of InaccessibleDirectories=/ plus
310 ReadOnlyDirectories=... for whitelisting files for a service.
313 - when kdbus does not take our message without memfds, try again with memfds
314 - systemd-bus-proxyd needs to enforce good old XML policy
315 - allow updating attach flags during runtime
316 - pid1: peek into activating message when activating a service
317 - introduce sd_bus_emit_object_added()/sd_bus_emit_object_removed() that automatically includes the build-in interfaces in the list
318 - port to sd-resolve for connecting to TCP dbus servers
319 - see if we can drop more message validation on the sending side
320 - add API to clone sd_bus_message objects
321 - make AddMatch calls on dbus1 transports async?
322 - kdbus: matches against source or destination pids for an "strace -p"-like feel. Problem: The PID info needs to be available in userspace too...
323 - longer term: priority inheritance
326 - NameLost/NameAcquired obsolete
328 - "const" properties (posted)
330 - update systemd.special(7) to mention that dbus.socket is only about the compatibility socket now
331 - test bloom filter generation indexes
334 - allow multiple signal handlers per signal?
335 - document chaining of signal handler for SIGCHLD and child handlers
337 * in the final killing spree, detect processes from the root directory, and
338 complain loudly if they have argv[0][0] == '@' set.
339 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=961044
341 * investigate endianness issues of UUID vs. GUID
343 * dbus: when a unit failed to load (i.e. is in UNIT_ERROR state), we
344 should be able to safely try another attempt when the bus call LoadUnit() is invoked.
346 * add a pam module that passes the hdd passphrase into the PAM stack and then expires it, for usage by gdm auto-login.
348 * add a pam module that on password changes updates any LUKS slot where the password matches
350 * maybe add a generator that looks for "systemd.run=" on the kernel cmdline for container usercases...
352 * timedatectl: print a nicer message when enabling ntp fails because ntpd/chrony are not installed
354 * cgtop: make cgtop useful in a container
357 - add 'set -e' to scripts in test/
358 - make stuff in test/ work with separate output dir
360 * seems that when we follow symlinks to units we prefer the symlink
361 destination path over /etc and /usr. We should not do that. Instead
362 /etc should always override /run+/usr and also any symlink
365 * when isolating, try to figure out a way how we implicitly can order
366 all units we stop before the isolating unit...
368 * teach ConditionKernelCommandLine= globs or regexes (in order to match foobar={no,0,off})
370 * after all byte-wise realloc() is slow, even on glibc, so i guess we
371 need manual exponential loops after all
373 * BootLoaderSpec: Clarify that the kernel has to be in $BOOT. Clarify
374 that the boot loader should be installed to the ESP. Define a way
375 how an installer can figure out whether a BLS compliant boot loader
378 * think about requeuing jobs when daemon-reload is issued? usecase:
379 the initrd issues a reload after fstab from the host is accessible
380 and we might want to requeue the mounts local-fs acquired through
383 * systemd-inhibit: make taking delay locks useful: support sending SIGINT or SIGTERM on PrepareForSleep()
385 * journal-or-kmsg is currently broken? See reverted commit 4a01181e460686d8b4a543b1dfa7f77c9e3c5ab8.
387 * remove any syslog support from log.c -- we probably cannot do this before split-off udev is gone for good
389 * shutdown logging: store to EFI var, and store to USB stick?
391 * write UI tool that pops up emergency messages from the journal as notification
393 * think about window-manager-run-as-user-service problem: exit 0 → activate shutdown.target; exit != 0 → restart service
395 * use "log level" rather than "log priority" everywhere
397 * merge unit_kill_common() and unit_kill_context()
399 * introduce ExecCondition= in services
402 - honor language efi variables for default language selection (if there are any?)
403 - honor timezone efi variables for default timezone selection (if there are any?)
404 - change bootctl to be backed by systemd-bootd to control temporary and persistent default boot goal plus efi variables
406 * maybe do not install getty@tty1.service symlink in /etc but in /usr?
408 * re-enable "make check" for gtk-doc (broken for unknown reason)
410 * fstab: add new mount option x-systemd-after=/foobar/waldo to allow manual dependencies to other mount points
411 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=812826
413 * print a nicer explanation if people use variable/specifier expansion in ExecStart= for the first word
415 * mount: turn dependency information from /proc/self/mountinfo into dependency information between systemd units.
418 - logind: optionally, ignore idle-hint logic for autosuspend, block suspend as long as a session is around
419 - When we update the kernel all kind of hibernation should be prohibited until shutdown/reboot
420 - logind: wakelock/opportunistic suspend support
421 - Add pretty name for seats in logind
422 - logind: allow showing logout dialog from system?
423 - we should probably handle SIGTERM/SIGINT to not leave dot files around, just in case
424 - session scopes/user unit: add RequiresMountsFor for the home directory of the user
425 - add Suspend() bus calls which take timestamps to fix double suspend issues when somebody hits suspend and closes laptop quickly.
426 - if pam_systemd is invoked by su from a process that is outside of a
427 any session we should probably just become a NOP, since that's
428 usually not a real user session but just some system code that just
431 * exec: when deinitializating a tty device fix the perms and group, too, not only when initializing. Set access mode/gid to 0620/tty.
433 * service: watchdog logic: for testing purposes allow ping, but do not require pong
436 - import and delete pstore filesystem content at startup
437 - journald: also get thread ID from client, plus thread name
438 - journal: when waiting for journal additions in the client always sleep at least 1s or so, in order to minimize wakeups
439 - add API to close/reopen/get fd for journal client fd in libsystemd-journal.
440 - fallback to /dev/log based logging in libsystemd-journal, if we cannot log natively?
441 - declare the local journal protocol stable in the wiki interface chart
442 - journal: reuse XZ context
443 - sd-journal: speed up sd_journal_get_data() with transparent hash table in bg
444 - journald: when dropping msgs due to ratelimit make sure to write
445 "dropped %u messages" not only when we are about to print the next
446 message that works, but alraedy after a short tiemout
447 - check if we can make journalctl by default use --follow mode inside of less if called without args?
448 - maybe add API to send pairs of iovecs via sd_journal_send
449 - journal: when writing journal auto-rotate if time jumps backwards
450 - journal: add a setgid "systemd-journal" utility to invoke from libsystemd-journal, which passes fds via STDOUT and does PK access
451 - journactl: support negative filtering, i.e. FOOBAR!="waldo",
452 and !FOOBAR for events without FOOBAR.
453 - journal: send out marker messages every now and then, and immediately sync with fdatasync() afterwards, in order to have hourly guaranteed syncs.
454 - 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.
455 - journal: find a way to allow dropping history early, based on priority, other rules
456 - journal: When used on NFS, check payload hashes
457 - journald: check whether it is OK if the client can still modify delivered journal entries
458 - journal live copy, based on libneon (client) and libmicrohttpd (server)
459 - journald: add kernel cmdline option to disable ratelimiting for debug purposes
460 - refuse taking lower-case variable names in sd_journal_send() and friends.
461 - journald: we currently rotate only after MaxUse+MaxFilesize has been reached.
462 - journal: deal nicely with byte-by-byte copied files, especially regards header
463 - journal: store euid in journal if it differs from uid
464 - journal: sanely deal with entries which are larger than the individual file size, but where the components would fit
465 - Replace utmp, wtmp, btmp, and lastlog completely with journal
466 - journalctl: instead --after-cursor= maybe have a --cursor=XYZ+1 syntax?
467 - tmpfiles: when applying ownership to /run/log/journal, also do this for the journal fails contained in it
468 - when a kernel driver logs in a tight loop, we should ratelimit that too.
469 - journald: optionally, log debug messages to /run but everything else to /var
470 - journald: when we drop syslog messages because the syslog socket is
471 full, make sure to write how many messages are lost as first thing
472 to syslog when it works again.
473 - journald: make sure ratelimit is actually really per-service with the new cgroup changes
474 - change systemd-journal-flush into a service that stays around during
475 boot, and causes the journal to be moved back to /run on shutdown,
476 so that we do not keep /var busy. This needs to happen synchronously,
477 hence doing this via signals is not going to work.
480 - document that deps in [Unit] sections ignore Alias= fields in
481 [Install] units of other units, unless those units are disabled
482 - man: clarify that time-sync.target is not only sysv compat but also useful otherwise. Same for similar targets
483 - document the exit codes when services fail before they are exec()ed
484 - document that service reload may be implemented as service reexec
485 - document in wiki how to map ical recurrence events to systemd timer unit calendar specifications
486 - add a man page containing packaging guidelines and recommending usage of things like Documentation=, PrivateTmp=, PrivateNetwork= and ReadOnlyDirectories=/etc /usr.
487 - document systemd-journal-flush.service properly
488 - documentation: recommend to connect the timer units of a service to the service via Also= in [Install]
489 - man: document the very specific env the shutdown drop-in tools live in
490 - man: extend runlevel(8) to mention that runlevels suck, and are dead. Maybe add runlevel(7) with a note about that too
491 - man: add more examples to man pages
492 - man: maybe sort directives in man pages, and take sections from --help and apply them to man too
495 - systemctl list-jobs - show dependencies
496 - add systemctl switch to dump transaction without executing it
497 - Add a verbose mode to "systemctl start" and friends that explains what is being done or not done
498 - "systemctl disable" on a static unit prints no message and does
499 nothing. "systemctl enable" does nothing, and gives a bad message
500 about it. Should fix both to print nice actionable messages.
501 - print nice message from systemctl --failed if there are no entries shown, and hook that into ExecStartPre of rescue.service/emergency.service
502 - add new command to systemctl: "systemctl system-reexec" which reexecs as many daemons as virtually possible
503 - systemctl enable: fail if target to alias into does not exist? maybe show how many units are enabled afterwards?
504 - systemctl: "Journal has been rotated since unit was started." message is misleading
505 - support "systemctl stop foobar@.service" to stop all units matching a certain template
506 - Something is wrong with symlink handling of "autovt@.service" in "systemctl list-unit-files"
507 - better error message if you run systemctl without systemd running
508 - systemctl status output should should include list of triggering units and their status
511 - "systemctl mask" should find all names by which a unit is accessible
512 (i.e. by scanning for symlinks to it) and link them all to /dev/null
513 - systemctl list-unit-files should list generated files (and probably with a new state "generated" for them, or so)
516 - timer units should get the ability to trigger when:
517 o CLOCK_REALTIME makes jumps (TFD_TIMER_CANCEL_ON_SET)
519 - Support 2012-02~4 as syntax for specifying the fourth to last day of the month.
520 - calendarspec: support value ranges with ".." notation. Example: 2013-4..8-1
521 - when parsing calendar timestamps support the UTC timezone (even if we will not support arbitrary timezone specs, support UTC itself certainly makes sense), also support syntaxes such as +0200
522 - Modulate timer frequency based on battery state
524 * update the kernel's TZ (sys_tz) when DST changes
526 * sync down the system time to the RTC when:
527 - CLOCK_REALTIME makes jumps (the user explicitely requested a time set)
528 - DST/timezone changes && ntp is active && RTC-in-localtime (never do it without ntp)
529 This takes care of syncing ntpdate updates to the RTC, and DST updates for localtime
530 mode, it will never touch the RTC if the no reliable time source is active or the
531 user did not request anything like it.
533 * add libsystemd-password or so to query passwords during boot using the password agent logic
535 * 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().
537 * fedup: add --unit to systemctl switch-root somehow
538 * fedup: do not delete initrd on switch-root
541 * clean up date formatting and parsing so that all absolute/relative timestamps we format can also be parsed
543 * on shutdown: move utmp, wall, audit logic all into PID 1 (or logind?), get rid of systemd-update-utmp-runlevel
545 * make repeated alt-ctrl-del presses printing a dump, or even force a reboot without
546 waiting for the timeout
548 * hostnamed: before returning information from /etc/machine-info.conf check the modification data and reread. Similar for localed, ...
550 * currently x-systemd.timeout is lost in the initrd, since crypttab is copied into dracut, but fstab is not
553 - bind mount read-only the cgroup tree higher than nspawn
554 - refuses to boot containers without /etc/machine-id (OK?), and with empty /etc/machine-id (not OK).
555 - support taking a btrfs snapshot at startup and dropping it afterwards
558 - cryptsetup-generator: allow specification of passwords in crypttab itself
559 - move cryptsetup key caching into kernel keyctl?
560 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54982
561 - support rd.luks.allow-discards= kernel cmdline params in cryptsetup generator
563 * hw watchdog: optionally try to use the preset watchdog timeout instead of always overriding it
564 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54712
566 * after deserializing sockets in socket.c we should reapply sockopts and things
568 * make timer units go away after they elapsed
570 * come up with a nice way to write queue/read_ahead_kb for a block device without interfering with readahead
572 * move PID 1 segfaults to /var/lib/systemd/coredump?
574 * create /sbin/init symlinks from the build system
576 * allow writing multiple conditions in unit files on one line
578 * MountFlags=shared acts as MountFlags=slave right now.
580 * drop PID 1 reloading, only do reexecing (difficult: Reload()
581 currently is properly synchronous, Reexec() is weird, because we
582 cannot delay the response properly until we are back, so instead of
583 being properly synchronous we just keep open the fd and close it
584 when done. That means clients do not get a successful method reply,
585 but much rather a disconnect on success.
587 * properly handle loop back mounts via fstab, especially regards to fsck/passno
589 * initialize the hostname from the fs label of /, if /etc/hostname does not exist?
591 * rename "userspace" to "core-os"
593 * load-fragment: when loading a unit file via a chain of symlinks
594 verify that it is not masked via any of the names traversed.
596 * introduce Type=pid-file
598 * change Requires=basic.target to RequisiteOverride=basic.target
600 * when breaking cycles drop sysv services first, then services from /run, then from /etc, then from /usr
602 * automount: implement expire:
603 - set superblock timeout AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_TIMEOUT_CMD
604 - periodically run AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_EXPIRE_CMD
605 - every timeout/4 (original autofs logic)
606 - blocking, needs a thread
608 - receive expire packet on pipe if kernel tells the timeout is over
610 - answer expire packet on pipe with AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_{READY,FAIL}_CMD
611 - AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_EXPIRE_CMD returns
613 * ExecOnFailure=/usr/bin/foo
618 - add trigger --subsystem-match=usb/usb_device device
619 - reimport udev db after MOVE events for devices without dev_t
621 * 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
623 * introduce mix of BindTo and Requisite
625 * There's currently no way to cancel fsck (used to be possible via C-c or c on the console)
627 * add option to sockets to avoid activation. Instead just drop packets/connections, see http://cyberelk.net/tim/2012/02/15/portreserve-systemd-solution/
629 * default unix qlen is too small (10). bump sysctl? add sockopt?
631 * save coredump in Windows/Mozilla minidump format
633 * support crash reporting operation modes (https://live.gnome.org/GnomeOS/Design/Whiteboards/ProblemReporting)
635 * default to actual 32-bit PIDs, via /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max
637 * be able to specify a forced restart of service A where service B depends on, in case B
638 needs to be auto-respawned?
640 * when a bus name of a service disappears from the bus make sure to queue further activation requests
643 - apply "x" on "D" too (see patch from William Douglas)
645 * for services: do not set $HOME in services unless requested
647 * hide PAM options in fragment parser when compile time disabled
649 * when we automatically restart a service, ensure we restart its rdeps, too.
651 * allow Type=simple with PIDFile=
652 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=723942
654 * move PAM code into its own binary
656 * implement Register= switch in .socket units to enable registration
657 in Avahi, RPC and other socket registration services.
659 * make sure systemd-ask-password-wall does not shutdown systemd-ask-password-console too early
661 * add ReloadSignal= for configuring a reload signal to use
663 * verify that the AF_UNIX sockets of a service in the fs still exist
664 when we start a service in order to avoid confusion when a user
665 assumes starting a service is enough to make it accessible
667 * Make it possible to set the keymap independently from the font on
668 the kernel cmdline. Right now setting one resets also the other.
670 * and a dbus call to generate target from current state
673 - drop /.readahead on bigger upgrades with yum
674 - move readahead files into /var (look for them with .path units?)
675 - readahead: use BTRFS_IOC_DEFRAG_RANGE instead of BTRFS_IOC_DEFRAG ioctl, with START_IO
676 - readahead: when bumping /sys readahead variable save mtime and compare later to detect changes
677 - readahead: make use of EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT, as used by http://e4rat.sourceforge.net/
679 * GC unreferenced jobs (such as .device jobs)

700 - hooking a script into various stages of shutdown/rearly booot
702 * allow port=0 in .socket units
704 * recreate systemd's D-Bus private socket file on SIGUSR2
706 * Support --test based on current system state
708 * investigate whether the gnome pty helper should be moved into systemd, to provide cgroup support.

712 * dot output for --test showing the 'initial transaction'
714 * fingerprint.target, wireless.target, gps.target, netdevice.target
716 * drop cap bounding set in readahead and other services
719 - figure out a simple way to wait for journal events in a way that
721 - add documentation to systemd.daemon
724 - plot per-process IO utilization
725 - group processes based on service association (cgroups)
726 - document initcall_debug
727 - kernel cmdline "bootchart" option for simplicity?

731 network devices where possible, so we can safely rely
733 - check MTUBytes parsing (expecting size_t but we are using unsigned)
736 - add support for more attribute types
737 - inbuilt piping support (essentially degenerate async)? see loopback-setup.c and other places
740 - add more keys to [Route] and [Address] sections
741 - add support for more DHCPv4 options (and, longer term, other kinds of dynamic config)
742 - add proper initrd support (in particular generate .network/.link files based on /proc/cmdline)
743 - add reduced [Link] support to .network files
744 - add Scope= parsing option for [Network]
745 - properly handle routerless dhcp leases
746 - add more attribute support for SIT tunnel
747 - work with non-ethernet devices
748 - add support for more bond options
750 * networkd-wait-online:
751 - make operstates to wait for configurable?
754 - figure out how much we can increase Maximum Message Size
755 - export timezone information
756 - support RFC4702 (pass FQDN)
759 - add functions to set previously stored IPv6 addresses on startup and get
760 them at shutdown; store them in client->ia_na
761 - write more test cases
762 - implement and do duplicate address detection, see rfc 4862, 5.4.
763 - implement reconfigure support, see 5.3., 15.11. and 22.20.

765 - implement support for temporary adressess (IA_TA)
766 - implement dhcpv6 authentication
767 - investigate the usefulness of Confirm messages; i.e. are there any
768 situations where the link changes without any loss in carrier detection
770 - some servers don't do rapid commit without a filled in IA_NA, verify
776 - natively watch for dbus-*.service symlinks (PENDING)
777 - teach dbus to activate all services it finds in /etc/systemd/services/org-*.service
779 * fix alsa mixer restore to not print error when no config is stored
781 * make cryptsetup lower --iter-time
783 * patch kernel for xattr support in /dev, /proc/, /sys?
785 * kernel: add device_type = "fb", "fbcon" to class "graphics"
787 * drop accountsservice's StandardOutput=syslog and Type=dbus fields
789 * dbus upstream still refers to dbus.target and should not
791 * dbus: in fedora, make /var/lib/dbus/machine-id a symlink to /etc/machine-id
793 * add "# export SYSTEMD_PAGER=" to bash login
795 * /usr/bin/service should actually show the new command line
797 * 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=
799 * fedora: F20: go timer units all the way, leave cron.daily for cron
801 * neither pkexec nor sudo initialize environ[] from the PAM environment?
803 * fedora: update policy to declare access mode and ownership of unit files to root:root 0644, and add an rpmlint check for it
805 * register catalog database signature as file magic
807 * zsh shell completion: <command> <verb> -<TAB> should complete options, but currently
812 * look for close() vs. close_nointr() vs. close_nointr_nofail()
814 * check for strerror(r) instead of strerror(-r)
816 * Use PR_SET_PROCTITLE_AREA if it becomes available in the kernel
820 * set_put(), hashmap_put() return values check. i.e. == 0 does not free()!
822 * use secure_getenv() instead of getenv() where appropriate
824 * link up selected blog stories from man pages and unit files Documentation= fields
826 Scheduled for removal or fixing:
828 * xxxOverridable dependencies (probably: fix)
