3 * swap units that are activated by one name but shown in the kernel under another are semi-broken
5 * Fix assert http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2011-April/001910.html
7 * 0595f9a1c182a84581749823ef47c5f292e545f9 is borked, freezes shutdown
8 (path: after installing inotify watches, recheck file again to fix race)
12 * NFS, networkmanager ordering issue (PENDING)
14 * NM should pull in network.target (PENDING)
15 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=692008
17 * bluetooth should be possible to disable (PENDING)
19 * get writev() /dev/kmsg support into the F15 kernel
20 https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/4/6/473
21 patched merged into -mm
23 * fix sd_is_socket() invocation in dbus
25 * New CK release, with sysinit.target dropping and TTY loop
27 * New Avahi package, enable it by default
29 * make anaconda write timeout=0 for encrypted devices
33 * Maybe merge nss-myhostname into systemd?
35 * ensure we strip empty directories from search path
37 * maybe lower default timeout to 2min?
39 * GC unreferenced jobs (such as .device jobs)
41 * support wildcard expansion in ListeStream= and friends
43 * avoid DefaultStandardOutput=syslog to have any effect on StandardInput=socket services
45 * use pivot_root on shutdown so that we can unmount the root directory.
47 * fix alsa mixer restore to not print error when no config is stored
49 * show enablement status in systemctl status
51 * write blog stories about:
52 - enabling dbus services
54 - the new configuration files
55 - you are a distro: why switch?
57 * maybe add tiny dbus services similar to hostnamed for locale and wallclock/timezone?
59 * allow port = 0 in .socket units
61 * rename systemd-logger to systemd-stdio-syslog-bridge
63 * introduce /usr/lib/binfmt.d/, /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/
65 * take BSD file lock on tty devices when using them?
67 * avoid any flag files, or readahead files in /, we need to support r/o /
68 or / on tmpfs like Android setups.
70 * move readahead files into /var, look for them with .path units
72 * teach dbus to activate all services it finds in /etc/systemd/services/org-*.service
74 * get process transport into dbus for systemctl -P/-H
76 * document default dependencies
78 * support systemd.whitelist=/systemd.blacklist= on the kernel command
81 * Find a way to replace /var/run, /var/lock directories with
82 symlinks during an RPM package upgrade (filesystem.rpm or systemd.rpm).
83 (lua code to create symlinks right away for new installations is in filesytem.rpm now)
84 We soon want to get rid of var-run.mount var-lock.mount units:
85 if mountpoint /run ; then
88 mount --move /var/run /run || mount --bind /var/run /run
90 mv /var/run /var/.run.save
92 echo "R /var/.run.save" > /etc/tmpfiles.d/remove-run-save.conf
94 * when key file cannot be found, read it from kbd in cryptsetup
96 * add switch to systemctl to show enabled but not running services. Or
97 another switch that shows service that have been running since
98 booting but aren't running anymore.
100 * reuse mkdtemp namespace dirs in /tmp?
102 * recreate systemd's D-Bus private socket file on SIGUSR2
104 * be more specific what failed:
106 Unmounting file systems.
107 Not all file systems unmounted, 1 left.
109 Detaching loop devices.
110 Detaching DM devices.
111 Cannot finalize remaining file systems and devices, trying to kill remaining processes.
112 Unmounting file systems.
113 Not all file systems unmounted, 1 left.
114 Cannot finalize remaining file systems and devices, giving up.
117 * check for compiled-in, but not active selinux, and don't print any warnings
118 about policy loading. Probably check for available selinux in /proc/filesystems,
119 and check for active selinux with getcon_raw() == "kernel"
121 * Support --test based on current system state
123 * systemctl enable as D-Bus call
125 * consider services with any kind of link in /etc/systemd/system enabled
127 * show failure error string in "systemctl status"
129 * make sure timeouts are applied to Type=oneshot services.
131 * Maybe implement "systemctl mask" and "systemctl unmask", but not
132 document it? When doing that add switch to make this temporary by
133 placing mask links in /dev.
135 * detect LXC environment
137 * invoke vhangup() before and after invoking getty
138 http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=3c95c985fa91ecf6a0e29622bbdd13dcfc5ce9f1
140 * Maybe store in unit files whether a service should be enabled by default on package installation
141 (belongs into a distro pattern though, not in an upstream package's service file)
143 * perhaps add "systemctl reenable" as combination of "systemctl disable" and "systemctl enable"
145 * need a way to apply mount options of api vfs from systemd unit files
146 (or some other modern source?) instead of fstab?
148 * maybe introduce ExecRestartPre=
150 * figure out what happened to bluez patch
152 * Patch systemd-fsck to use -C and pass console fd to it
154 * configurable jitter for timer events
156 * Support ProcessNeededForShutdown=true to allow stuff like mdmon to
157 be killed very late after the rootfs is read only? If implement pass
158 this to shutdown binary via command line argument.
160 * Integrate "mdadm --wait-clean". Maybe just let SIGTERM to mdmon trigger the
163 * dot output for --test showing the 'initial transaction'
165 * calendar time support in timer, iCalendar semantics for the timer stuff (RFC2445)
166 - check timerfd() patch: http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/11/23/290
169 - get PR_SET_ANCHOR merged: http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/2/2/165
172 - provide CK functionality
173 - start getty only when actual vt switch happens (same model as
174 socket on-demand activation). allocate the next free tty and
175 start a getty there. this way, pressing alt-f[1-12] will switch
176 through running X and getty sessions, and any unallocated
177 activated tty will start a new getty. the hardcoding of
178 getty[1-6] will entirely go away.
179 - http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/gregkh/tty-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=fbc92a3455577ab17615cbcb91826399061bd789
181 * implicitly import "defaults" settings file into all types
183 * port over to LISTEN_FDS/LISTEN_PID:
185 - rpcbind (/var/run/rpcbind.sock!) HAVEPATCH
189 - libvirtd (/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock-ro)
190 - bluetoothd (/var/run/sdp! @/org/bluez/audio!)
193 * fingerprint.target, wireless.target, gps.target, netdevice.target
195 * set_put(), hashmap_put() return values check. i.e. == 0 doesn't free()!
197 * io priority during initialization
199 * if a service fails too often, make the service enter failed mode, and the socket, too.
201 * systemctl list-jobs - show dependencies
203 * auditd service files
205 * add systemctl switch to dump transaction without executing it
207 * suspend, resume support?
209 * readahead: btrfs/LVM SSD detection
211 * add separate man page for [Install] settings
213 * allow runtime changing of log level and target
215 * drop cap bounding set in readahead and other services
219 * udisks should not use udisks-part-id, instead use blkid. also not probe /dev/loopxxx
221 * snd-seq should go, https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=676095
223 * gnome-shell python script/glxinfo/is-accelerated must die
225 * make cryptsetup lower --iter-time
227 * patch kernel for xattr support in /dev, /proc/, /sys and /sys/fs/cgroup.
229 * patch kernel for cpu feature modalias for autoloading aes/kvm/...
230 http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/ak/linux-misc-2.6.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/cpuid-match
231 (Rafael J. Wysocki's sysdev rework is on the way. After that CPUs can be exported a proper bus.)
233 * procps, psmisc, sysvinit-tools, hostname → util-linux-ng

256 * look for close() vs. close_nointr() vs. close_nointr_nofail()
258 * check for strerror(r) instead of strerror(-r)
260 * Use PR_SET_PROCTITLE_AREA if it becomes available in the kernel
262 * %m in printf() instead of strerror();
266 * CFLAGS="-Wl,--gc-sections -Wl,--print-gc-sections -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections"
