* swap units that are activated by one name but shown in the kernel under another are semi-broken
-* make anaconda write timeout=0 for encrypted devices
-
* 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.
* properly handle .mount unit state tracking when two mount points are stacked one on top of another on the exact same mount point.
-F18:
+* add 'set -e' to scripts in test/
+* make test in test/ work with separate output dir
-* Retest multi-seat
+* suppress log output on shutdown when "quiet" is used
-Features:
-* turn unused sysv early-boot stuff like $local-fs, $syslog into a NOP. systemd does
- no longer support sysv early-boot scripts, these facilities can be silently ignored
+Fedora 19:
-* re-enable "make check" for gtk-doc (broken for unknown reason)
+* make anaconda write timeout=0 for encrypted devices
-* logind: make PrepareForSuspend(false) an official api for notification of resumes
+* create /var/log/journal/
-* ExecStartPre= with an empty string should reset the list of commands to invoke
+* 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.
-* refuse instantiation of proc.mount and mount units for all other API fs
+* cgroup attrs:
+ - update dbus interface docs in wiki
-* "systemctl disable" on a static unit prints no message and does
- nothing. "systemctl enable" does nothing, and gives a bad message
- about it. Should fix both to print nice actionable messages.
+* kernel cmdline switch to turn off predictable network interface names
-* fstab: add new mount option x-systemd-after=/foobar/waldo to allow manual dependencies to other mount points
- https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=812826

-* add "loginctl unlock-sessions" as counterpart for "loginctl lock-sessions"
+* localed:
+ - localectl: add listing support for X11 keymaps, by parsing /usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/xorg.lst
+ - localectl: support new converted x11→console keymaps
-* extend cgroup attr dbus calls to optionally make changes persistent, and retrieve current kernel values
+* logind: Class property should probably know "background" or so as value for cron jobs, and the inhibition checks should filter those out too.
-* support high-level cgroup setting syntax in systemctl. Example: "systemctl set-cgroup-attr MemoryLimit 5K"
+* timer logic is confused by units which are skipped due to failing condition
+ http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2013-February/008816.html
-* print a nicer explanation if people use variable/specifier expansion in ExecStart= for the first word
+* 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
-* kernel cmdline switch to turn off predictable network interface names
+Features:
-* mount: turn dependency information from /proc/self/mountinfo into dependency information between systemd units.
+* safe_atod() is too naive, as it is vulnerable to locale parameters, should be locale independent.
-* udev: remove all (misguided from day 1) userspace firmware_class handling
+* neither pkexec nor sudo initialize environ[] from the PAM environment?
-* logind: optionally, ignore idle-hint logic for autosuspend, block suspend as long as a session is around
+* rework specifier logic so that we can distuingish OOM errors from other errors
-* service: when killing a service with SIGKILL always kill all processes, even if for SIGTERM we only killed the main process
+* systemd-inhibit: refuse taking delay locks
-* exec: when deinitializating a tty device fix the perms and group, too, not only when initializing. Set access mode/gid to 0620/tty.
+* journal-or-kmsg is currently broken? See reverted commit 4a01181e460686d8b4a543b1dfa7f77c9e3c5ab8.
-* DeviceAllow/DeviceDeny: disallow everything by default, but whitelist /dev/zero, /dev/null and friends
+* remove any syslog support from log.c -- we probably can't do this before split-off udev is gone for good
-* service: watchdog logic: for testing purposes allow ping, but do not require pong
+* tmpfiles: when traversing the tree, check for bind mount points with nametohandle()
-* journald: when dropping msgs due to ratelimit make sure to write
- "dropped %u messages" not only when we are about to print the next
- message that works, but alraedy after a short tiemout
+* fedora: connect the timer units of a service to the service via Also= in [Install], and maybe introduce timers.target
-* journald: also get thread ID from client, plus thread name
+* fedora: F20: go timer units all the way, leave cron.daily for cron
-* check if we can make journalctl by default use --follow mode inside of less if called without args?
+* add a tool that lists active timer units plus their next elapstion and the time the units ran last
-* Add a verbose mode to "systemctl start" and friends that explains what is being done or not done
+* man: document the very specific env the shutdown drop-in tools live in
-* journal is not closed properly at shutdown when run in a container?
+* shutdown logging: store to EFI var, and store to USB stick?
-* journal: when waiting for journal additions in the client always sleep at least 1s or so, in order to minimize wakeups
+* man: extend runlevel(8) to mention that runlevels suck, and are dead. Maybe add runlevel(7) with a note about that too
-* When shutdown.target is queued begin with an asynchronous sync()?
+* systemctl: maybe add "systemctl add-wants" or so...
-* add API to close/reopen/get fd for journal client fd in libsystemd-journal.
+* man: add a link to socket activation blog from systemd.socket(5)

+* systemctl status: show drop-in snippets for service files in addition to service file path themesevles.
-* fallback to /dev/log based logging in libsystemd-journal, if we can't log natively?
+* man: add more examples to man pages
-* declare the local journal protocol stable in the wiki interface chart
+* man: maybe sort directives in man pages, and take sections from --help and apply them to man too
-* journal: reuse XZ context
+* add "# export SYSTEMD_PAGER=" to bash login
-* sd-journal: speed up sd_journal_get_data() with transparent hash table in bg
+* /usr/bin/service should actually show the new command line
-* introduce ntp.service (or suchlike) as symlink that is used to arbitrate between various NTP implementations
+* 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=
-* timer units should get the ability to trigger when:
- - CLOCK_REALTIME makes jumps (TFD_TIMER_CANCEL_ON_SET)
- - DST changes
+* write UI tool that pops up emergency messages from the journal as notification
-* update the kernel's TZ (sys_tz) when DST changes
+* think about window-manager-run-as-user-service problem: exit 0 → activate shutdown.target; exit != 0 → restart service
-* sync down the system time to the RTC when:
- - CLOCK_REALTIME makes jumps (the user explicitely requested a time set)
- - DST/timezone changes && ntp is active && RTC-in-localtime (never do it without ntp)
- This takes care of syncing ntpdate updates to the RTC, and DST updates for localtime
- mode, it will never touch the RTC if the no reliable time source is active or the
- user did not request anything like it.
+* 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.
-* When we begin with system shutdown all kind of suspend/hibernation should be prohibited until shutdown/reboot
+* figure out what we do about hostnames/fqdn in hostnamectl/hostnamed
-* When we update the kernel all kind of hibernation should be prohibited until shutdown/reboot
+* use "log level" rather than "log priority" everywhere
-* hwdb:
- - implement conditional properties (dmi matches)
- - hwdb --filter=ID_DRIVE_*
- - find out what to do for blockdevs and skipping scsi modaliases
- - move writing code to src/libudev/libudev-hwdb-private.c
+* unit_name_mangle() is currently not used on "systemctl enable" and friends, only on "systemctl start"
-* if booted in "quiet" mode, and an error happens, turn on status output again, so that the emergency mode isn't totally surprising
+* ensure sd_journal_seek_monotonic actually works properly.
-* localectl: add listing support for X11 keymaps, by parsing /usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/xorg.lst
+* timedate: have global on/off switches for auto-time (NTP), and auto-timezone that connman can subscribe to.
-* libunwind support for coredump pattern hook, and includes this in
- the message for coredumps. After all, libunwind is now capable to
- unwind coredumps since a few weeks ago. This probably requires that
- we have nice support for multi-line messages on display in logs-show.c.
+* support --root= in msgcatalog compiler
-* figure out relation of --all and --full in the various tools
+* Honour "-" prefix for InaccessibleDirectories= and ReadOnlyDirectories= to
+ suppress errors of the specified path doesn't exist
-* journal: when writing journal auto-rotate if time jumps backwards
+* 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
+ will be activated.
-* introduce new "journal" group in place of adm? introduce groups for the various mini daemons?
+* merge service_kill() logic into unit_kill_context() and unify the code paths
-* journal: add a setgid "adm" utility to invoke from libsystemd-journal, which passes fds via STDOUT and does PK access
+* introduce ExecCondition= in services

- and !FOOBAR for events without FOOBAR.
+* 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
-* print nice message from systemctl --failed if there are no entries shown, and hook that into ExecStartPre of rescue.service/emergency.service
+* maybe do not install getty@tty1.service symlink in /etc but in /usr?
-* add libsystemd-password or so to query passwords during boot using the password agent logic
+* re-enable "make check" for gtk-doc (broken for unknown reason)
+
+* fstab: add new mount option x-systemd-after=/foobar/waldo to allow manual dependencies to other mount points

+ - pam: when leaving a session explicitly exclude the ReleaseSession() caller process from the killing spree
+ - logind: GetSessionByPID() should accept 0 as PID value
-* journal: send out marker messages every now and then, and immediately sync with fdatasync() afterwards, in order to have hourly guaranteed syncs.
+* exec: when deinitializating a tty device fix the perms and group, too, not only when initializing. Set access mode/gid to 0620/tty.
-* journal: when we haven't written anything in a while, sync to disk and mark file as offline, in order to be more often than not in a clean state
+* DeviceAllow/DeviceDeny: disallow everything by default, but whitelist /dev/zero, /dev/null and friends
