Features:
-* implement transient socket unit.
+* add proper dbus APIs for the various sd_notify() commands, such as MAINPID=1
+ and so on, which would mean we could report errors and such.
-* make systemd-run create transient path and socket unit.
+* teach tmpfiles.d q/Q logic something sensible in the context of XFS/ext4
+ project quota
+
+* introduce DefaultSlice= or so in system.conf that allows changing where we
+ place our units by default, i.e. change system.slice to something
+ else. Similar, ManagerSlice= should exist so that PID1's own scope unit could
+ be moved somewhere else too. Finally machined and logind should get similar
+ options so that it is possible to move user session scopes and machines to a
+ different slice too by default. Usecase: people who want to put resources on
+ the entire system, with the exception of one specific service. See:
+ https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2018-February/040369.html
+
+* maybe rework get_user_creds() to query the user database if $SHELL is used
+ for root, but only then.
+
+* be stricter with fds we receive for the fdstore: close them asynchronously
+
+* calenderspec: add support for week numbers and day numbers within a
+ year. This would allow us to define "bi-weekly" triggers safely.
+
+* add bpf-based implementation of devices cgroup controller logic for compat
+ with cgroupsv2 as supported by newest kernel
+
+* introduce sd_id128_get_boot_app_specific() which is like
+ sd_id128_get_machine_app_specific(). After all on long-running systems both
+ IDs have similar properties.
+
+* sd-bus: add vtable flag, that may be used to request client creds implicitly
+ and asynchronously before dispatching the operation
* make use of ethtool veth peer info in machined, for automatically finding out
host-side interface pointing to the container.
systemd-journald writes to /var/log/journal, which could be useful when we
doing disk usage calculations and so on.
-* taint systemd if there are fewer than 65536 users assigned to the system.
+* taint systemd if there are fewer than 65536 users assigned (userns) to the system.
* deprecate PermissionsStartOnly= and RootDirectoryStartOnly= in favour of the ExecStart= prefix chars
the runtime dir as we maintain for the fdstore: i.e. keep it around as long
as the unit is running or has a job queued.
-* hook up sd-bus' creds stuff with SO_PEERGROUPS
-
-* add async version of sd_bus_add_match and make use of that
-
* support projid-based quota in machinectl for containers, and then drop
implicit btrfs loopback magic in machined
* In DynamicUser= mode: before selecting a UID, use disk quota APIs on relevant
disks to see if the UID is already in use.
-* add dissect_image_warn() as a wrapper around dissect_image() that prints
- friendly log messages for the returned errors, so that we don't have to
- duplicate that in nspawn, systemd-dissect and PID 1.
-
* add "systemctl wait" or so, which does what "systemd-run --wait" does, but
for all units. It should be both a way to pin units into memory as well as a
wait to retrieve their exit data.
O_NONBLOCK on it. That way people can control if and when to block for
logging.
-* tighten sd_notify() MAINPID= checks a bit: don't accept foreign PIDs (i.e.
- PIDs not managed by the service manager)
-
* hostnamed: populate form factor data from a new hwdb database, so that old
yogas can be recognized as "convertible" too, even if they predate the DMI
"convertible" form factor
"systemd-gdb" for attaching to the start-up of any system service in its
natural habitat.
-* replace all canonicalize_file_name() invocations by chase_symlinks(), in
- particulr those where a rootdir is relevant.
-
* maybe introduce gpt auto discovery for /var/tmp?
* maybe add gpt-partition-based user management: each user gets his own
* docs: bring http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/MyServiceCantGetRealtime up to date
-* mounting and unmounting mount points manually with different source
- devices will result in collected on all devices used.
- http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2015-April/030225.html
-
* add a job mode that will fail if a transaction would mean stopping
running units. Use this in timedated to manage the NTP service
state.
* networkd/udev: implement SR_IOV configuration in .link files:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2015-January/027451.html
-* Rework systemctl's GetAll property parsing to use the generic bus_map_all_properties() API
-
-* Port various tools to make use of verbs.[ch], where applicable: busctl,
- coredumpctl, hostnamectl, localectl, systemd-analyze, timedatectl
-
* hostnamectl: show root image uuid
* sysfs set api in libudev is not const
* what to do about udev db binary stability for apps? (raw access is not an option)
-* maybe provide an API to allow migration of foreign PIDs into existing scopes.
-
* man: maybe use the word "inspect" rather than "introspect"?
* systemctl: if some operation fails, show log output?
- see if we can introduce a new sd_bus_get_owner_machine_id() call to retrieve the machine ID of the machine of the bus itself
- see if we can drop more message validation on the sending side
- add API to clone sd_bus_message objects
- - make AddMatch calls on dbus1 transports async?
- longer term: priority inheritance
- dbus spec updates:
- NameLost/NameAcquired obsolete
- GVariant
- path escaping
- update systemd.special(7) to mention that dbus.socket is only about the compatibility socket now
- - test bloom filter generation indexes
* sd-event
- allow multiple signal handlers per signal?
* maybe add a generator that looks for "systemd.run=" on the kernel cmdline for container usercases...
* test/:
- - add 'set -e' to scripts in test/
- - make stuff in test/ work with separate output dir
+ - add unit tests for config_parse_device_allow()
* seems that when we follow symlinks to units we prefer the symlink
destination path over /etc and /usr. We should not do that. Instead
* exec: when deinitializating a tty device fix the perms and group, too, not only when initializing. Set access mode/gid to 0620/tty.
-* service: watchdog logic: for testing purposes allow ping, but do not require pong
-
* journal:
- consider introducing implicit _TTY= + _PPID= + _EUID= + _EGID= + _FSUID= + _FSGID= fields
- import and delete pstore filesystem content at startup
* hw watchdog: optionally try to use the preset watchdog timeout instead of always overriding it
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54712
-* create /sbin/init symlinks from the build system
-
* add a dependency on standard-conf.xml and other included files to man pages
* MountFlags=shared acts as MountFlags=slave right now.
