* 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.
+* stop importing kernel exported env variables. The utterly broken logic in
+ the kernel exports every kernel command line option which is not recognized
+ as a built-in module option as an env variable. Systemd should not pass-on
+ that nonsense, a kernel command line option is a command line option not an
+ env variable:
+ $ cat /proc/252/environ

Fedora 19:
-* Retest multi-seat
-* create /var/log/journal/
+* 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.
+
+* cgroup attrs:
+ - update dbus interface docs in wiki
+
+* localed:
+ - localectl: support new converted x11→console keymaps
+
+* when installing fedora with yum --installroot /var/run is a directory, not a symlink
+
+CGroup Rework Completion:
+
+* introduce "mainpid" for scopes
+
+* implement system-wide DefaultCPUAccounting=1 switch (and similar for blockio, memory?)
+
+* implement per-slice CPUFairScheduling=1 switch
+
+* handle jointly mounted controllers correctly
+
+* logind: implement session kill exceptions
+
+* make BlockIODeviceWeight=, BlockIODeviceBandwidth= runtime settable
+
+* introduce high-level settings for RT budget, swappiness
+
+* man: document new bus apis
+
+* Send SIGHUP and SIGTERM in session scopes
Features:
-* logind: get rid of Resumed() signal again, instead, move PrepareForSleep(false) after coming back from suspend, and generate it unconditionally
+* add rpm macros for applying tmpfiles --create after package installation
-* add configure switch for enabling/disabling efi stuff
+* 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
-* introduce ExecCondition= in services
+* journalctl: add an output mode that looks like classic /var/log/messages, but also outputs the cursor of the last entry so that people can write scripts that can run iteratively and always process data that has been added since the last time.
-* unify killing logic of service, socket, mount, swap units
+* when a kernel driver logs in a tight loop we should ratelimit that too.
-* logind: document new Resume signal and UnlockSessions call in wiki
+* journald: optionally, when messages with a high log prioerity are logged, sync() immeidately.
-* if we have systemd-analyze in C "systemctl dot" should move there too
+* introduce %v resolving to the string returned by "uname -r"
-* fsck hookup for the ESP mount is missing
+* systemctl list-unit-files should list generated files (and probably with a new state "generated" for them, or so)
-* 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.
+* Get rid of systemd-sysv:
+ https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Toshio/Systemd_Convert_draft
-* write man page for efi boot generator
+* do we really need both hasprefix() and startswith()?
-* maybe not install getty@tty1.service symlink in /etc but in /usr?
+* when a kernel driver logs in a tight loop we should ratelimit that too.
-* re-enable "make check" for gtk-doc (broken for unknown reason)
+* 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.
-* "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.
+* prohibit Restart= set with Type=oneshot
-* 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
+* man: the documentation of Restart= currently is very misleading and suggests the tools from ExecStartPre= might get restarted.
-* cgroup attrs:
- - don't filter out duplicate settings
- - support high-level cgroup setting syntax in systemctl. Example: "systemctl set-cgroup-attr MemoryLimit 5K"
- - support writte string mapping even for non-high-level settings
- - add man page for systemctl commands
- - make sure we work fine with multi-line strings
+* load .d/*.conf dropins for device units
-* print a nicer explanation if people use variable/specifier expansion in ExecStart= for the first word
+* move systemctl set-log-level to systemd-analyze?
-* kernel cmdline switch to turn off predictable network interface names
+* move "systemctl dump" to systemd-analyze
-* mount: turn dependency information from /proc/self/mountinfo into dependency information between systemd units.
+* add a fixed dbus path for "my own unit", "my own session", ... to PID1, logind, ...
-* logind: optionally, ignore idle-hint logic for autosuspend, block suspend as long as a session is around
+* service_coldplug() appears to reinstall the wrong stop timeout watch?
-* exec: when deinitializating a tty device fix the perms and group, too, not only when initializing. Set access mode/gid to 0620/tty.
+* transient units: allow creating auxiliary units with the same call
-* DeviceAllow/DeviceDeny: disallow everything by default, but whitelist /dev/zero, /dev/null and friends
+* how to reset dynamically changed attributes sanely?
-* service: watchdog logic: for testing purposes allow ping, but do not require pong
+* when reloading configuration, apply new cgroup configuration
+
+* journald: make sure ratelimit is actually really per-service with the new cgroup changes
+
+* libsystemd-logind: sd_session_is_active() and friends: verify
+ validity of session name before appending it to a path
+
+* gparted needs to disable auto-activation of mount units somehow, or
+ maybe we should stop doing auto-activiation of this after boot
+ entirely. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=701676
+
+* when a service changes state make reflect that in the
+ RUNNING/LISTENING states of its socket
+
+* when recursively showing the cgroup hierarchy, optionally also show
+ the hierarchies of child processes
+
+* document logic of auto/noauto and fail/nofail in fstab in systemd.mount or systemd-fstab-generator man page
+
+* we should properly escape ssh hostnames we add into dbus server strings
+
+* something pulls in pcre as so dep into our daemons such as hostnamed.
+
+* cgroup-agent: downgrade error messages
+
+* document systemd-journal-flush.service properly
+
+* chane 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.
+
+* allow implementation of InaccessibleDirectories=/ plus
+ ReadOnlyDirectories=... for whitelisting files for a service.
+
+* libsystemd-journal:
+ - return ECHILD as soon as somebody tries to reuse a journal object across a fork()
+
+* libsystemd-bus:
+ - default policy (allow uid == 0 and our own uid)
+ - enforce alignment of pointers passed in
+ - when kdbus doesn't take our message without memfds, try again with memfds
+ - implement translator service
+ - port systemd to new library
+ - implement busname unit type in systemd
+ - move to gvariant
+ - merge busctl into systemctl or so?
+ - synthesize sd_bus_message objects from kernel messages
+ - properly implement name registry ioctls for kdbus
+ - get rid of object hash table, use decision tree everyhwere instead?
+ - implement monitor logic
+ - object vtable logic
+ - longer term:
+ * priority queues
+ * priority inheritance
+
+* 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
+
+* 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.
+
+* 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 whern the acces mode of unit files is non-sensical.
+
+* investigate endianess 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.
+
+* 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().
+
+* add a pam module that passes the hdd passphrase into the PAM stack and then expires it, for usage by gdm auto-login.
+
+* add a pam module that on password changes updates any LUKS slot where the password matches
-* 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
+* maybe add a generator that looks for "systemd.run=" on the kernel cmdline for container usercases...
-* journald: also get thread ID from client, plus thread name
+* timedatctl, localectl: possibly make some commands work without the daemon, for chroot situations...
-* check if we can make journalctl by default use --follow mode inside of less if called without args?
+* logind: add Suspend() bus calls which take timestamps to fix double suspend issues when somebody hits suspend and closes laptop quickly.
-* Add a verbose mode to "systemctl start" and friends that explains what is being done or not done
+* we need dynamic units
-* journal is not closed properly at shutdown when run in a container?
+* cgtop: make cgtop useful in a container
-* journal: when waiting for journal additions in the client always sleep at least 1s or so, in order to minimize wakeups
+* test/:
+ - add 'set -e' to scripts in test/
+ - make stuff in test/ work with separate output dir
+ - remove all the duplicated code in test/
-* When shutdown.target is queued begin with an asynchronous sync()?
+* suppress log output on shutdown when "quiet" is used
-* add API to close/reopen/get fd for journal client fd in libsystemd-journal.
+* systemctl delete x.snapshot leaves no trace in logs (at least at default level).
-* maybe add API to send pairs of iovecs via sd_journal_send
+* make the coredump collector tool move itself into the user's cgroup
+ so that the coredump is properly written to the user's own journal
+ file.
-* fallback to /dev/log based logging in libsystemd-journal, if we can't log natively?
+* 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.
-* declare the local journal protocol stable in the wiki interface chart
+* remove duplicate default deps logic from fstab-generator vs. mount.c
-* journal: reuse XZ context
+* when isolating, try to figure out a way how we implicitly can order
+ all units we stop before the isolating unit...
-* sd-journal: speed up sd_journal_get_data() with transparent hash table in bg
+* 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.
+
+* add ConditionArchitecture= or so
+
+* teach ConditionKernelCommandLine= globs or regexes (in order to match foobar={no,0,off})
+
+* 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
+ old.
+
+* after all byte-wise realloc() is slow, even on glibc, so i guess we
+ need manual exponential loops after all
+
+* BootLoaderSpec: drop allowing ext234 for $BOOT. Clarify that the
+ kernel has to be in $BOOT. Clarify that the boot loader should be
+ 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
+
+* 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.
+
+* 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
+
+* documentation: recommend to connect the timer units of a service to the service via Also= in [Install]
+
+* 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 more examples to man pages
+
+* man: maybe sort directives in man pages, and take sections from --help and apply them to man too
+
+* 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
+
+* 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
+ will be activated.
+
+* merge unit_kill_common() and unit_kill_context()
+
+* 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
+
+* maybe do not install getty@tty1.service symlink in /etc but in /usr?
+
+* 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
+ https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=812826
+
+* print a nicer explanation if people use variable/specifier expansion in ExecStart= for the first word
+
+* mount: turn dependency information from /proc/self/mountinfo into dependency information between systemd units.
+
+* logind:
+ - logind: optionally, ignore idle-hint logic for autosuspend, block suspend as long as a session is around

+ - 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
+
+* 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
+ - add API to close/reopen/get fd for journal client fd in libsystemd-journal.

+ 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
+ - 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: expand tabs
+ - 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
+ - Replace utmp, wtmp, btmp, and lastlog completely with journal
+ - Port upower to use the journal for historical power information used in future calculations
+
+* document:
+ - document unit_name_mangle()
+ - document that deps in [Unit] sections ignore Alias= fileds 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 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
+
+* systemctl:
+ - systemctl list-jobs - show dependencies
+ - add systemctl switch to dump transaction without executing it
+ - Add a verbose mode to "systemctl start" and friends that explains what is being done or not done
+ - "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.
+ - print nice message from systemctl --failed if there are no entries shown, and hook that into ExecStartPre of rescue.service/emergency.service
+ - add new command to systemctl: "systemctl system-reexec" which reexecs as many daemons as virtually possible
+ - systemctl enable: improve the success messages (i.e. more human readable, less shell-like)
+ - systemctl enable: fail if target to alias into doesn't exist? maybe show how many units are enabled afterwards?
+ - 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"
* introduce ntp.service (or suchlike) as symlink that is used to arbitrate between various NTP implementations
-* timer units should get the ability to trigger when:
- - CLOCK_REALTIME makes jumps (TFD_TIMER_CANCEL_ON_SET)
- - DST changes
+* deal with sendmail/postfix exclusivity
+
+* timer units:
+ - configurable jitter for timer events

+ o DST changes
+ - Support 2012-02~4 as syntax for specifying the fourth to last day of the month.
* 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.
-* When we update the kernel all kind of hibernation should be prohibited until shutdown/reboot
-
* hwdb:
- implement conditional properties (dmi matches)
- hwdb --filter=ID_DRIVE_*

surprising. Also, terminate plymouth.
-* localectl: add listing support for X11 keymaps, by parsing /usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/xorg.lst
-
* libunwind support for coredump pattern hook, and includes this in
the message for coredumps. After all, libunwind is now capable to

-
-* 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
-
-* 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.

+* 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
- used to setup a new container from a shared /usr
* high level net_prio setting in execution context
-* Introduce journalctl -b <nr> to show journal messages of a previous boot
-
* 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
-

-* nspawn: --read-only is not applied recursively to submounts
-
* MountFlags=shared acts as MountFlags=slave right now.

-
-* readahead: make use of EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT, as used by http://e4rat.sourceforge.net/
-
* automount: implement expire:

-
-* add command to systemctl to plot dependency graph as tree (see rhbz 795365)
-
* add option to sockets to avoid activation. Instead just drop packets/connections, see http://cyberelk.net/tim/2012/02/15/portreserve-systemd-solution/
