* Fedora: add an rpmlint check that verifies that all unit files in the RPM are listed in %systemd_post macros.
-* wiki: update journal format documentation for lz4 additions
-
Janitorial Clean-ups:
* Rearrange tests so that the various test-xyz.c match a specific src/basic/xyz.c again
Features:
-* add systemd.random_seed= on the kernel cmdline, taking some hex or base64
- encoded data. During earliest boot, credit it to entropy. This is not useful
- for general purpose systems, but certainly for testing environments in VMs
- and such, as it allows us to boot up instantly with fully initialized entropy
- pool even if RNG pass-thru is not available.
+* add --copy-from and --copy-to command to systemd-dissect which copies stuff
+ in and out of a disk image
* Support ProtectProc= or so, using: https://patchwork.kernel.org/cover/11310197/
so that the client side can remain entirely unprivileged, with SUID or
anything like that.
+* journald: do journal file writing out-of-process, with one writer process per
+ client UID, so that synthetic hash table collisions can slow down a specific
+ user's journal stream down but not the others.
+
* add "throttling" to sd-event event sources: optionally, when we wake up too
often for one, let's turn it off entirely for a while. Use that for the
/proc/self/mountinfo logic.
* pid1: also remove PID files of a service when the service starts, not just
when it exits
+* make us use dynamically fewer deps for containers in general purpose distros:
+ o turn into dlopen() deps:
+ - pcre2 (always) — irrelevant on Fedora, since dep by
+ libselinux, but should benefit Debian
+ - libpwquality (always) - only relevant for homed, and maybe soon
+ firstboot
+ - elfutils (always)
+ - p11-kit-trust (always)
+ - kmod-libs (only when called from PID 1)
+ - cryptsetup-libs (only in RootImage= handling in PID 1, but not in systemd-cryptsetup)
+ - similar: libblkid
+ - libpam (only when called from PID 1)
+ - bzip2, xz, lz4 (always — gzip and zstd should probably stay static deps the way they are,
+ since they are so basic and our defaults)
+ o move into separate libsystemd-shared-iptables.so .so
+ - iptables-libs (only used by nspawn + networkd)
+
+* seccomp: when SystemCallArchitectures=native is set then don't install any
+ other seccomp filters for any of the other archs, in order to reduce the
+ number of seccomp filters we install needlessly.
+
+* seccomp: maybe use seccomp_merge() to merge our filters per-arch if we can.
+ Apparently kernel performance is much better with fewer larger seccomp
+ filters than with more smaller seccomp filters.
+
* systemd-path: add ESP and XBOOTLDR path. Add "private" runtime/state/cache dir enum,
mapping to $RUNTIME_DIRECTORY, $STATE_DIRECTORY and such
- teach it to copy in unified kernel images and maybe type #1 boot loader spec entries from host
- make it operate on loopback files, dissecting enough to find ESP to operate on
+* Maybe add a separate GPT partition type to the discoverable partition spec
+ for "hibernate" partitions, that are exactly like swap partitions but only
+ activated right before hibernation and thus never used for regular swapping.
+
* by default, in systemd --user service bump the OOMAdjust to 100, as privs
allow so that systemd survives
* socket units: allow creating a udev monitor socket with ListenDevices= or so,
with matches, then activate app through that passing socket over
-* unify on openssl:
+* unify on openssl (as soon as OpenSSL 3.0 is out, and the Debian license
+ confusion is gone)
- port sd_id128_get_machine_app_specific() over from khash
- port resolved over from libgcrypt (DNSSEC code)
- port journald + fsprg over from libgcrypt
* systemd-repart: allow managing the gpt read-only partition flag + auto-mount flag
+* systemd-repart: allow boolean option that ensures that if existing partition
+ doesn't exist within the configured size bounds the whole command fails. This
+ is useful to implement ESP vs. XBOOTLDR schemes in installers: have one set
+ of repart files for the case where ESP is large enough and one where it isn't
+ and XBOOTLDR is added in instead. Then apply the former first, and if it
+ fails to apply use the latter.
+
+* systemd-repart: add per-partition option to never reuse existing partition
+ and always create anew even if matching partition already exists.
+
+* systemd-repart: add per-partition option to fail if partition already exist,
+ i.e. is not added new. Similar, add option to fail if partition does not exist yet.
+
+* systemd-repart: add --size=auto for generating/resizing images of minimal
+ size, i.e. where the image file is sized exactly as large as necessary taking
+ SizeMin= into account, but not a single byte larger.
+
* systemd-repart: allow disabling growing of specific partitions, or making
them (think ESP: we don't ever want to grow it, since we cannot resize vfat)
