16803617e47c83272013e45ba8eb83a3b11983edAndreas Gustafsson* Dangling symlinks of .automount unit files in .wants/ directories, set up
16803617e47c83272013e45ba8eb83a3b11983edAndreas Gustafsson automount points even when the original .automount file did not exist
16803617e47c83272013e45ba8eb83a3b11983edAndreas Gustafsson anymore. Only the .mount unit was still around.

1676408640d8283c9f17eec0b183e1302ea7fd70Mark Andrews* add a job mode that will fail if a transaction would mean stopping
1676408640d8283c9f17eec0b183e1302ea7fd70Mark Andrews running units. Use this in timedated to manage the NTP service

1676408640d8283c9f17eec0b183e1302ea7fd70Mark Andrews* fstab-generator should generate systemd-fsck-root.service when

c3e0aed7da9ca312a3b25a4eee13573dca04c318Mark Andrews* nspawn: add --overlay= to support overlay file systems, similar to

c3e0aed7da9ca312a3b25a4eee13573dca04c318Mark Andrews* When logging about multiple units (stopping BoundTo units, conflicts, etc.),
c3e0aed7da9ca312a3b25a4eee13573dca04c318Mark Andrews log both units as UNIT=, so that journalctl -u triggers on both.

4d5f44e7933f4cb691e8f4cf3b4b5f61c27e2b1cAndreas Gustafsson* coredump: make the handler check /proc/$PID/rlimits for RLIMIT_CORE,
8c4f1fa179f8f2fc56a9fa9294682a080e8756eeAndreas Gustafsson and supress coredump if turned off. Then change RLIMIT_CORE to
4d5f44e7933f4cb691e8f4cf3b4b5f61c27e2b1cAndreas Gustafsson infinity by default for all services. This then allows per-service

8a01f10278e0c794fe1d488bab2f97185f272e26Andreas Gustafsson* Introduce $LISTEN_NAMES to complement $LISTEN_FDS, containing a

8a01f10278e0c794fe1d488bab2f97185f272e26Andreas Gustafsson* when the fstab-generator runs in the initrd, it should create a /dev/null mask for systemd-fsck-root.service, to avoid that the the root fs is fsck'ed twice.

81fb2f5544552e67d7be673e353e399789e203e7Brian Wellington* rework kexec logic to use new kexec_file_load() syscall, so that we
00205e27e84603f75eed46268a5100e86883f06bAndreas Gustafsson don't have to call kexec tool anymore.

4d5f44e7933f4cb691e8f4cf3b4b5f61c27e2b1cAndreas Gustafsson* The udev blkid built-in should expose a property that reflects
317ebe84d581e59f5cb63bc6c1556a479bbb179aAndreas Gustafsson whether media was sensed in USB CF/SD card readers. This should then
317ebe84d581e59f5cb63bc6c1556a479bbb179aAndreas Gustafsson be used to control SYSTEMD_READY=1/0 so that USB card readers aren't
317ebe84d581e59f5cb63bc6c1556a479bbb179aAndreas Gustafsson picked up by systemd unless they contain a medium. This would mirror
317ebe84d581e59f5cb63bc6c1556a479bbb179aAndreas Gustafsson the behaviour we already have for CD drives.

faca6b801dcace871c8a98c8ee1bba8d7e2994a5Brian Wellington* nspawn: emulate /dev/kmsg using CUSE and turn off the syslog syscall
5f25ebaaa087893f8f57cc558c4b36eab6c26988Andreas Gustafsson with seccomp. That should provide us with a useful log buffer that
cca68b1ff68cd4342705b71015f603c7389d040cAndreas Gustafsson systemd can log to during early boot, and disconnect container logs
cca68b1ff68cd4342705b71015f603c7389d040cAndreas Gustafsson from the kernel's logs.

ecbfd32d3710d539f19a9323f16cf43a095580bdAndreas Gustafsson* When RLIMIT_NPROC is set from a unit file it currently always is set
4d5f44e7933f4cb691e8f4cf3b4b5f61c27e2b1cAndreas Gustafsson for root, not for the user set in User=, which makes it
4d5f44e7933f4cb691e8f4cf3b4b5f61c27e2b1cAndreas Gustafsson useless. After fixing this, set RLIMIT_NPROC for
4d5f44e7933f4cb691e8f4cf3b4b5f61c27e2b1cAndreas Gustafsson systemd-journal-xyz, and all other of our services that run under
4d5f44e7933f4cb691e8f4cf3b4b5f61c27e2b1cAndreas Gustafsson their own user ids, and use User= (but only in a world where userns
4d5f44e7933f4cb691e8f4cf3b4b5f61c27e2b1cAndreas Gustafsson is ubiquitous since otherwise we cannot invoke those daemons on the
4d5f44e7933f4cb691e8f4cf3b4b5f61c27e2b1cAndreas Gustafsson host AND in a container anymore). Also, if LimitNPROC= is used
4d5f44e7933f4cb691e8f4cf3b4b5f61c27e2b1cAndreas Gustafsson without User= we should warn and refuse operation.

3b8932de20e12b07f9d874d5538d30e1fac9a9f4Andreas Gustafsson* introduce systemd-nspawn-ephemeral@.service, and hook it into "machinectl start" with a new --ephemeral switch

4efe2e812cf8462ed781bfd79b644eaf17d6d2b7Andreas Gustafsson
4efe2e812cf8462ed781bfd79b644eaf17d6d2b7Andreas Gustafsson* add new gpt type for btrfs volumes
413d5565ba2af24f12dc54d6e6807af7f1a39867Andreas Gustafsson
413d5565ba2af24f12dc54d6e6807af7f1a39867Andreas Gustafsson* support empty /etc boots nicely:
ff1e17749c7bf976f7127467c1816abeb3f4b998Brian Wellington - nspawn/gpt-generator: introduce new gpt partition type for /usr
ff1e17749c7bf976f7127467c1816abeb3f4b998Brian Wellington - fstab-generator: support systemd.volatile=yes|no|state on the kernel cmdline, too, similar to nspawn's --volatile=
4efe2e812cf8462ed781bfd79b644eaf17d6d2b7Andreas Gustafsson
413d5565ba2af24f12dc54d6e6807af7f1a39867Andreas Gustafsson* generator that automatically discovers btrfs subvolumes, identifies their purpose based on some xattr on them.
413d5565ba2af24f12dc54d6e6807af7f1a39867Andreas Gustafsson
672a41b5fef7722803645c1f0ca132972f0f940aAndreas Gustafsson* timer units: actually add extra delays to timer units with high AccuracySec values, don't start them already when we are awake...
672a41b5fef7722803645c1f0ca132972f0f940aAndreas Gustafsson
36983956d7c3d9e294903eeda29548f67ac17daeBob Halley* a way for container managers to turn off getty starting via $container_headless= or so...
268755d80313f3c4fab6ffc7e70099310873233eAndreas Gustafsson
68dacf121428ad8d1160d19d018e028f676ae47aMark Andrews* figure out a nice way how we can let the admin know what child/sibling unit causes cgroup membership for a specific unit
68dacf121428ad8d1160d19d018e028f676ae47aMark Andrews
413d5565ba2af24f12dc54d6e6807af7f1a39867Andreas Gustafsson* mount_cgroup_controllers(): symlinks need to get the label applied
413d5565ba2af24f12dc54d6e6807af7f1a39867Andreas Gustafsson
276a77c22af98c78403883b16a82646a0d5b29abPaul Vixie* For timer units: add some mechanisms so that timer units that trigger immediately on boot do not have the services
36983956d7c3d9e294903eeda29548f67ac17daeBob Halley they run added to the initial transaction and thus confuse Type=idle.
36983956d7c3d9e294903eeda29548f67ac17daeBob Halley
36983956d7c3d9e294903eeda29548f67ac17daeBob Halley* Run most system services with cgroupfs read-only and procfs with a more secure mode (doesn't work, since the hidepid= option is per-pid-namespace, not per-mount)
36983956d7c3d9e294903eeda29548f67ac17daeBob Halley
8d0d941054982cff5235a9033040ac35c3f06a50Mark Andrews* sd-event: generate a failure of a default event loop is executed out-of-thread
36983956d7c3d9e294903eeda29548f67ac17daeBob Halley
8d0d941054982cff5235a9033040ac35c3f06a50Mark Andrews* add bus api to query unit file's X fields.
36983956d7c3d9e294903eeda29548f67ac17daeBob Halley
469a5f80aebc46e720b073e3a2cceb70709797b6Mark Andrews* consider adding RuntimeDirectoryUser= + RuntimeDirectoryGroup=
469a5f80aebc46e720b073e3a2cceb70709797b6Mark Andrews
438e3090de1db43eb55c0495d310162b0538f1e9Mark Andrews* sd-event: define more intervals where we will shift wakeup intervals around in, 1h, 6h, 24h, ...
469a5f80aebc46e720b073e3a2cceb70709797b6Mark Andrews
36983956d7c3d9e294903eeda29548f67ac17daeBob Halley* gpt-auto-generator:
614a25ce3c57c34c3020c247b3234c593bfb208cMark Andrews - Support LUKS for root devices
36983956d7c3d9e294903eeda29548f67ac17daeBob Halley - Define new partition type for encrypted swap? Support probed LUKS for encrypted swap?
36983956d7c3d9e294903eeda29548f67ac17daeBob Halley - Make /home automount rather than mount?
614a25ce3c57c34c3020c247b3234c593bfb208cMark Andrews
36983956d7c3d9e294903eeda29548f67ac17daeBob Halley* add generator that pulls in systemd-network from containers when
a48fa4b49c58246b297e0fd38e5fb85b985379f1Bob Halley CAP_NET_ADMIN is set, more than the loopback device is defined, even
when it is otherwise off
* MessageQueueMessageSize= and RLimitFSIZE= (and suchlike) should use parse_iec_size().
* "busctl status" works only as root on dbus1, since we cannot read
/proc/$PID/exe
* implement Distribute= in socket units to allow running multiple
service instances processing the listening socket, and open this up
for ReusePort=
* socket units: support creating sockets in different namespace,
opening it up for JoinsNamespaceOf=. This would require to fork off
a tiny process that joins the namespace and creates/binds the socket
and passes this back to PID1 via SCM_RIGHTS. This also could be used
to allow Chown/chgrp on sockets without requiring NSS in PID 1.
* New service property: maximum CPU and wallclock runtime for a service
* introduce bus call FreezeUnit(s, b), as well as "systemctl freeze
$UNIT" and "systemctl thaw $UNIT" as wrappers around this. The calls
should SIGSTOP all unit processes in a loop until all processes of
it are fully stopped. This can later be used for app management by
desktop UIs such as gnome-shell to freeze apps that are not visible
on screen, not unlike how job control works on the shell
* cgroups:
- implement per-slice CPUFairScheduling=1 switch
- handle jointly mounted controllers correctly
- introduce high-level settings for RT budget, swappiness
- how to reset dynamically changed unit cgroup attributes sanely?
- when reloading configuration, apply new cgroup configuration
- when recursively showing the cgroup hierarchy, optionally also show
the hierarchies of child processes
* transient units:
- add field to transient units that indicate whether systemd or somebody else saves/restores its settings, for integration with libvirt
- ensure scope units may be started only a single time
* Automatically configure swap partition to use for hibernation by looking for largest swap partition on the root disk?
* when we detect low battery and no AC on boot, show pretty splash and refuse boot
* machined, localed: when we try to kill an empty cgroup, generate an ESRCH error over the bus
* libsystemd-journal, libsystemd-login, libudev: add calls to easily attach these objects to sd-event event loops
* be more careful what we export on the bus as (usec_t) 0 and (usec_t) -1
* unify dispatch table in systemctl_main() and friends
* rfkill,backlight: we probably should run the load tools inside of the udev rules so that the state is properly initialized by the time other software sees it
* After coming back from hibernation reset hibernation swap partition using the /dev/snapshot ioctl APIs
* If we try to find a unit via a dangling symlink, generate a clean
error. Currently, we just ignore it and read the unit from the search
path anyway.
* refuse boot if /etc/os-release is missing or /etc/machine-id cannot be set up
* btrfs raid assembly: some .device jobs stay stuck in the queue
* make sure gdm does not use multi-user-x but the new default X configuration file, and then remove multi-user-x from systemd
* man: the documentation of Restart= currently is very misleading and suggests the tools from ExecStartPre= might get restarted.
* load .d/*.conf dropins for device units
* allow implementation of InaccessibleDirectories=/ plus
ReadOnlyDirectories=... for whitelisting files for a service.
* sd-bus:
- GetAllProperties() on a non-existing object does not result in a failure currently
- kdbus: process fd=-1 for incoming msgs
- port to sd-resolve for connecting to TCP dbus servers
- kdbus: maybe add controlling tty metadata fields
- 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
- when kdbus does not take our message without memfds, try again with memfds
- 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?
- kdbus: matches against source or destination pids for an "strace -p"-like feel. Problem: The PID info needs to be available in userspace too...
- longer term: priority inheritance
- dbus spec updates:
- kdbus mapping
- 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
- bus-proxy: when passing messages from kdbus, make sure we properly
handle the case where a large number of fds is appended that we
cannot pass into sendmsg() of the AF_UNIX sokcet (which only accepts
253 messages)
- kdbus: introduce a concept of "send-only" connections
- kdbus: add counter for refused unicast messages that is passed out via the RECV ioctl. SImilar to the counter for dropped multicast messages we already have.
* sd-event
- allow multiple signal handlers per signal?
- document chaining of signal handler for SIGCHLD and child handlers
* 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
* investigate endianness 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.
* 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
* maybe add a generator that looks for "systemd.run=" on the kernel cmdline for container usercases...
* cgtop: make cgtop useful in a container
* test/:
- add 'set -e' to scripts in test/
- make stuff in test/ work with separate output dir
* seems that when we follow symlinks to units we prefer the symlink
destination path over /etc and /usr. We should not do that. Instead
/etc should always override /run+/usr and also any symlink
destination.
* when isolating, try to figure out a way how we implicitly can order
all units we stop before the isolating unit...
* teach ConditionKernelCommandLine= globs or regexes (in order to match foobar={no,0,off})
* BootLoaderSpec: 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.
* 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.
* 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 cannot do this before split-off udev is gone for good
* shutdown logging: store to EFI var, and store to USB stick?
* 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
* merge unit_kill_common() and unit_kill_context()
* introduce ExecCondition= in services
* EFI:
- honor language efi variables for default language selection (if there are any?)
- honor timezone efi variables for default timezone selection (if there are any?)
- change bootctl to be 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
- When we update the kernel all kind of hibernation should be prohibited until shutdown/reboot
- logind: wakelock/opportunistic suspend support
- Add pretty name for seats in logind
- logind: allow showing logout dialog from system?
- we should probably handle SIGTERM/SIGINT to not leave dot files around, just in case
- session scopes/user unit: add RequiresMountsFor for the home directory of the user
- add Suspend() bus calls which take timestamps to fix double suspend issues when somebody hits suspend and closes laptop quickly.
- 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().
- logind: make the Suspend()/Hibernate() bus calls wait for the for
the job to be completed. before returning, so that clients can wait
for "systemctl suspend" to finish to know when the suspending is
complete.
- logind: when the power button is pressed short, just popup a
logout dialog. If it is pressed for 1s, do the usual
shutdown. Inspiration are Macs here.
- expose "Locked" property on logind sesison objects
- given that logind now lets PID 1 do all nasty work, we can
probably reduce the capability set it retains substantially.
(we need CAP_SYS_ADMIN for drmSetMaster(), so maybe not worth it)
- expose orientation sensors and tablet mode through logind
* 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
- 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.
- fallback to /dev/log based logging in libsystemd-journal, if we cannot log natively?
- declare the local journal protocol stable in the wiki interface chart
- journal: reuse XZ context
- sd-journal: speed up sd_journal_get_data() with transparent hash table in bg
- 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
- check if we can make journalctl by default use --follow mode inside of less if called without args?
- maybe add API to send pairs of iovecs via sd_journal_send
- journal: when writing journal auto-rotate if time jumps backwards
- journal: add a setgid "systemd-journal" utility to invoke from libsystemd-journal, which passes fds via STDOUT and does PK access
- journactl: support negative filtering, i.e. FOOBAR!="waldo",
and !FOOBAR for events without FOOBAR.
- journal: store timestamp of journal_file_set_offline() int he header,
so it is possible to display when the file was last synced.
- 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: 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
- 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
- journalctl: instead --after-cursor= maybe have a --cursor=XYZ+1 syntax?
- when a kernel driver logs in a tight loop, we should ratelimit that too.
- journald: optionally, log debug messages to /run but everything else to /var
- 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.
- journald: make sure ratelimit is actually really per-service with the new cgroup changes
- change 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 do not keep /var busy. This needs to happen synchronously,
hence doing this via signals is not going to work.
- optionally support running journald from the command line for testing purposes in external projects
- journald: allow per-priority and per-service retention times when rotating/vacuuming
- journald: make use of uid-range.h to managed uid ranges to split
journals in.
- journalctl: add the ability to look for the most recent process of a binary. journalctl /usr/bin/X11 --pid=-1 or so...
- improve journalctl performance by loading journal files
lazily. Encode just enough information in the file name, so that we
do not have to open it to know that it is not interesting for us, for
the most common operations.
* document:
- document that deps in [Unit] sections ignore Alias= fields 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
- add a man page containing packaging guidelines and recommending usage of things like Documentation=, PrivateTmp=, PrivateNetwork= and ReadOnlyDirectories=/etc /usr.
- document systemd-journal-flush.service properly
- documentation: recommend to connect the timer units of a service to the service via Also= in [Install]
- man: document the very specific env the shutdown drop-in tools live in
- man: extend runlevel(8) to mention that runlevels suck, and are dead. Maybe add runlevel(7) with a note about that too
- 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
* 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: fail if target to alias into does not 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"
- better error message if you run systemctl without systemd running
- systemctl status output should should include list of triggering units and their status
* unit install:
- "systemctl mask" should find all names by which a unit is accessible
(i.e. by scanning for symlinks to it) and link them all to /dev/null
- systemctl list-unit-files should list generated files (and probably with a new state "generated" for them, or so)
* timer units:
- timer units should get the ability to trigger when:
o CLOCK_REALTIME makes jumps (TFD_TIMER_CANCEL_ON_SET)
o DST changes
- Support 2012-02~4 as syntax for specifying the fourth to last day of the month.
- calendarspec: support value ranges with ".." notation. Example: 2013-4..8-1
- when parsing calendar timestamps support the UTC timezone (even if we will not support arbitrary timezone specs, support UTC itself certainly makes sense), also support syntaxes such as +0200
- Modulate timer frequency based on battery state
* add libsystemd-password or so to query passwords during boot using the password agent logic
* If we show an error about a unit (such as not showing up) and it has no Description string, then show a description string generated form the reverse of unit_name_mangle().
* fedup: add --unit to systemctl switch-root somehow
* fedup: do not delete initrd on switch-root
* fedup: generator
* clean up date formatting and parsing so that all absolute/relative timestamps we format can also be parsed
* on shutdown: move utmp, wall, audit logic all into PID 1 (or logind?), get rid of systemd-update-utmp-runlevel
* make repeated alt-ctrl-del presses printing a dump, or even force a reboot without
waiting for the timeout
* 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 is not
* nspawn:
- refuses to boot containers without /etc/machine-id (OK?), and with empty /etc/machine-id (not OK).
* cryptsetup:
- cryptsetup-generator: allow specification of passwords in crypttab itself
- move cryptsetup key caching into kernel keyctl?
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54982
- support rd.luks.allow-discards= kernel cmdline params in cryptsetup generator
* hw watchdog: optionally try to use the preset watchdog timeout instead of always overriding it
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54712
* after deserializing sockets in socket.c we should reapply sockopts and things
* make timer units go away after they elapsed
* move PID 1 segfaults to /var/lib/systemd/coredump?
* create /sbin/init symlinks from the build system
* allow writing multiple conditions in unit files on one line
* MountFlags=shared acts as MountFlags=slave right now.
* drop PID 1 reloading, only do reexecing (difficult: Reload()
currently is properly synchronous, Reexec() is weird, because we
cannot delay the response properly until we are back, so instead of
being properly synchronous we just keep open the fd and close it
when done. That means clients do not get a successful method reply,
but much rather a disconnect on success.
* properly handle loop back mounts via fstab, especially regards to fsck/passno
* initialize the hostname from the fs label of /, if /etc/hostname does not exist?
* rename "userspace" to "core-os"
* load-fragment: when loading a unit file via a chain of symlinks
verify that it is not masked via any of the names traversed.
* introduce Type=pid-file
* change Requires=basic.target to RequisiteOverride=basic.target
* when breaking cycles drop sysv services first, then services from /run, then from /etc, then from /usr
* automount: implement expire:
- set superblock timeout AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_TIMEOUT_CMD
- periodically run AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_EXPIRE_CMD
- every timeout/4 (original autofs logic)
- blocking, needs a thread
- run until -EAGAIN
- receive expire packet on pipe if kernel tells the timeout is over
- call umount
- answer expire packet on pipe with AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_{READY,FAIL}_CMD
- AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_EXPIRE_CMD returns
* ExecOnFailure=/usr/bin/foo
* udev:
- move to LGPL
- kill scsi_id
- add trigger --subsystem-match=usb/usb_device device
- reimport udev db after MOVE events for devices without dev_t
* when a service has the same env var set twice we actually store it twice and return that in systemctl show -p... We should only show the last setting
* introduce mix of BindTo and Requisite
* There's currently no way to cancel fsck (used to be possible via C-c or c on the console)
* add option to sockets to avoid activation. Instead just drop packets/connections, see http://cyberelk.net/tim/2012/02/15/portreserve-systemd-solution/
* default unix qlen is too small (10). bump sysctl? add sockopt?
* save coredump in Windows/Mozilla minidump format
* support crash reporting operation modes (https://live.gnome.org/GnomeOS/Design/Whiteboards/ProblemReporting)
* default to actual 32-bit PIDs, via /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max
* be able to specify a forced restart of service A where service B depends on, in case B
needs to be auto-respawned?
* when a bus name of a service disappears from the bus make sure to queue further activation requests
* tmpfiles:
- apply "x" on "D" too (see patch from William Douglas)
- replace F with f+.
- instead of ignoring unknown fields, reject them.
* for services: do not set $HOME in services unless requested
* hide PAM options in fragment parser when compile time disabled
* when we automatically restart a service, ensure we restart its rdeps, too.
* allow Type=simple with PIDFile=
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=723942
* move PAM code into its own binary
* implement Register= switch in .socket units to enable registration
in Avahi, RPC and other socket registration services.
* make sure systemd-ask-password-wall does not shutdown systemd-ask-password-console too early
* add ReloadSignal= for configuring a reload signal to use
* verify that the AF_UNIX sockets of a service in the fs still exist
when we start a service in order to avoid confusion when a user
assumes starting a service is enough to make it accessible
* Make it possible to set the keymap independently from the font on
the kernel cmdline. Right now setting one resets also the other.
* and a dbus call to generate target from current state
* GC unreferenced jobs (such as .device jobs)
* write blog stories about:
- hwdb: what belongs into it, lsusb
- enabling dbus services
- status update
- how to make changes to sysctl and sysfs attributes
- remote access
- how to pass throw-away units to systemd, or dynamically change properties of existing units
- testing with Harald's awesome test kit
- auto-restart
- how to develop against journal browsing APIs
- the journal HTTP iface
- non-cgroup resource management
- dynamic resource management with cgroups
- refreshed, longer missions statement
- calendar time events
- init=/bin/sh vs. "emergency" mode, vs. "rescue" mode, vs. "multi-user" mode, vs. "graphical" mode, and the debug shell
- how to create your own target
- instantiated apache, dovecot and so on
- hooking a script into various stages of shutdown/rearly booot
* allow port=0 in .socket units
* recreate systemd's D-Bus private socket file on SIGUSR2
* Support --test based on current system state
* investigate whether the gnome pty helper should be moved into systemd, to provide cgroup support.
* maybe introduce ExecRestartPre=
* dot output for --test showing the 'initial transaction'
* fingerprint.target, wireless.target, gps.target, netdevice.target
* systemd-python:
- figure out a simple way to wait for journal events in a way that
works with ^C
- add documentation to systemd.daemon
* bootchart:
- plot per-process IO utilization
- group processes based on service association (cgroups)
- document initcall_debug
- kernel cmdline "bootchart" option for simplicity?
* udev-link-config:
- Make sure ID_PATH is always exported and complete for
network devices where possible, so we can safely rely
on Path= matching
- check MTUBytes parsing (expecting size_t but we are using unsigned)
* sd-rtnl:
- add support for more attribute types
- inbuilt piping support (essentially degenerate async)? see loopback-setup.c and other places
* networkd:
- add more keys to [Route] and [Address] sections
- add support for more DHCPv4 options (and, longer term, other kinds of dynamic config)
- add proper initrd support (in particular generate .network/.link files based on /proc/cmdline)
- add reduced [Link] support to .network files
- add Scope= parsing option for [Network]
- properly handle routerless dhcp leases
- add more attribute support for SIT tunnel
- work with non-ethernet devices
- add support for more bond options
* networkd-wait-online:
- make operstates to wait for configurable?
* dhcp:
- figure out how much we can increase Maximum Message Size
- export timezone information
- support RFC4702 (pass FQDN)
* dhcp6:
- add functions to set previously stored IPv6 addresses on startup and get
them at shutdown; store them in client->ia_na
- write more test cases
- implement reconfigure support, see 5.3., 15.11. and 22.20.
- implement support for temporary adressess (IA_TA)
- implement dhcpv6 authentication
- investigate the usefulness of Confirm messages; i.e. are there any
situations where the link changes without any loss in carrier detection
or interface down
- some servers don't do rapid commit without a filled in IA_NA, verify
this behavior
External:
* dbus:
- natively watch for dbus-*.service symlinks (PENDING)
- teach dbus to activate all services it finds in /etc/systemd/services/org-*.service
* fix alsa mixer restore to not print error when no config is stored
* make cryptsetup lower --iter-time
* patch kernel for xattr support in /dev, /proc/, /sys?
* kernel: add device_type = "fb", "fbcon" to class "graphics"
* drop accountsservice's StandardOutput=syslog and Type=dbus fields
* dbus upstream still refers to dbus.target and should not
* dbus: in fedora, make /var/lib/dbus/machine-id a symlink to /etc/machine-id
* add "# export SYSTEMD_PAGER=" to bash login
* /usr/bin/service should actually show the new command line
* fedora: suggest auto-restart on failure, but not on success and not on coredump. also, ask people to think about changing the start limit logic. Also point people to RestartPreventExitStatus=, SuccessExitStatus=
* fedora: F20: go timer units all the way, leave cron.daily for cron
* neither pkexec nor sudo initialize environ[] from the PAM environment?
* fedora: update policy to declare access mode and ownership of unit files to root:root 0644, and add an rpmlint check for it
* register catalog database signature as file magic
* zsh shell completion:
- <command> <verb> -<TAB> should complete options, but currently does not
- systemctl add-wants,add-requires
Regularly:
* look for close() vs. close_nointr() vs. close_nointr_nofail()
* check for strerror(r) instead of strerror(-r)
* Use PR_SET_PROCTITLE_AREA if it becomes available in the kernel
* pahole
* set_put(), hashmap_put() return values check. i.e. == 0 does not free()!
* use secure_getenv() instead of getenv() where appropriate
* link up selected blog stories from man pages and unit files Documentation= fields
Scheduled for removal or fixing:
* xxxOverridable dependencies (probably: fix)
