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

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