TODO revision 438bacd18e0b8766c5add47f28b04876272daa97
278N/ABugfixes:
1436N/A* there is nothing to warn about here :)
278N/A $ systemctl stop systemd-udevd.service systemd-udevd-kernel.socket systemd-udevd-control.socket
278N/A Warning: Stopping systemd-udevd.service, but it can still be activated by:
919N/A systemd-udevd-control.socket
919N/A systemd-udevd-kernel.socket
919N/A
919N/A* kill /etc/timezone handling entirely? What does it provide?
919N/A - /etc/localtime carries the same information already:
919N/A $ ls -l /etc/localtime; cat /etc/timezone
919N/A lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 33 Jul 27 09:55 /etc/localtime -> /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Berlin
919N/A Europe/Berlin
919N/A - systemd enforces /usr to be available at bootup, so we can
919N/A enforce the use of the symlink
919N/A
919N/A* check systemd-tmpfiles for selinux context hookup for mknod(), symlink() and similar
919N/A
919N/A* swap units that are activated by one name but shown in the kernel under another are semi-broken
919N/A
919N/A* make anaconda write timeout=0 for encrypted devices
919N/A
278N/A* Dangling symlinks of .automount unit files in .wants/ directories, set up
278N/A automount points even when the original .automount file did not exist
278N/A anymore. Only the .mount unit was still around.
278N/A
278N/A* make polkit checks async
278N/A
278N/A* properly handle .mount unit state tracking when two mount points are stacked one on top of another on the exact same mount point.
278N/A
278N/A* we pull src/core/manager.h into src/shared/src/shared/path-lookup.c which is the wrong direction
1436N/A rename enum "ManagerRunningAs" to "SystemdRunningAs" and move it to shared/
1436N/A
278N/A* crash happens when running a service as forking and then changing it to simple and reloading.
278N/A
278N/A Jul 09 18:20:57 mop systemd[1]: usbmuxd.service operation timed out. Terminating.
278N/A Jul 09 18:20:57 mop systemd[1]: Unit usbmuxd.service entered failed state.
278N/A Jul 09 18:22:24 mop systemd[1]: PID 21814 read from file /var/run/usbmuxd.pid does not exist.
278N/A Jul 09 18:22:24 mop systemd[1]: Unit usbmuxd.service entered failed state.
278N/A Jul 09 18:22:33 mop systemd[1]: Reloading.
278N/A Jul 09 18:22:37 mop systemd[1]: Assertion 's->type == SERVICE_FORKING' failed at src/core/service.c:3007, function service_sigchld_eve...Aborting.
278N/A Jul 09 18:22:37 mop systemd[1]: Caught <ABRT>, dumped core as pid 21865.
278N/A Jul 09 18:22:37 mop systemd[1]: Freezing execution.
278N/A Jul 09 18:22:37 mop [21866]: Process 21865 (systemd) dumped core.
278N/A
278N/A* support *static* (/run) hibernate inhibitors. All rpm -i actions should completely prevent any
278N/A sort of hibernate action until the next reboot. If the kernel or any other base tool is replaced
278N/A by rpm, the resume path might fail, the for resume needed kernel might even be uninstalled, and
278N/A the whole situation leads directly to data loss.
278N/A
1436N/AFeatures:
278N/A
278N/A* move keymaps to /usr/lib/... rather than /usr/lib/udev/...
278N/A
278N/A* journald: check whether it is OK if the client can still modify delivered journal entries
278N/A
278N/A* json: use yajl
278N/A* json: don't add wrapping array, just put entries on one line each
278N/A* json: add -o json-pretty in addition to -o json, make the latter output one line per entry
278N/A* json: properly serialize multiple fields with the same name per entry
278N/A
278N/A* journalctl: make -l the default
278N/A
278N/A* journald: add option to choose between "split up nothing", "split up login user journals", "split up all user journals"
1436N/A
1436N/A* journal live copy, bsaed on libneon (client) and libmicrohttpd
278N/A
278N/A* document in wiki json serialization
278N/A
278N/A* python-journal merge
278N/A
278N/A* system-wide seccomp filter
1436N/A
1436N/A* securityfs: don't mount in container
278N/A
278N/A* slave/shared remount root fs in container
278N/A
278N/A* ability to pass fds into systemd
278N/A
278N/A* system.conf should have controls for cgroups
1436N/A
1436N/A* tmpfiles: skip mknod if CAP_MKNOD is missing
278N/A
278N/A* fake boot id
278N/A
278N/A* bind mount read-only the cgroup tree higher than than nspawn
278N/A
278N/A* currently system services appear not to generate core dumps...
278N/A
278N/A* introduce /run/kmsg in containers?
278N/A
278N/A* introduce $container_boot_id?
278N/A
278N/A* wall messages for shutdown should move to logind
278N/A
278N/A* allow writing multiple conditions in unit files on one line
278N/A
278N/A* journal: json output needs to be able to deal with multiple assignments of the same field
278N/A
278N/A* There's something wrong with escaping unit names: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2012-August/006292.html
278N/A
278N/A* cleanup ellipsation for log output in journalctl and systemctl status: have a sane way to disable ellipsation, and disable it by default when invoked in less/more
278N/A
278N/A* enforce limits on fds openened by socket units
278N/A
278N/A* explore multiple service instances per listening socket idea
278N/A
278N/A* testing tool for socket activation: some binary that listens on a socket and passes it on using the usual socket activation protocol to some server.
278N/A
278N/A* maybe make systemd-detect-virt suid? or use fscaps?
278N/A
278N/A* man: document in ExecStart= explicitly that we don't take shell command lines, only executable names with arguments
278N/A
278N/A* shutdown: don't read-only mount anything when running in container
1436N/A
278N/A* nspawn: --read-only is not applied recursively to submounts
278N/A
278N/A* MountFlags=shared acts as MountFlags=slave right now.
278N/A
278N/A* ReadOnlyDirectories= is not applied recursively to submounts
278N/A
278N/A* drop PID 1 reloading, only do reexecing (difficult: Reload()
278N/A currently is properly synchronous, Reexec() is weird, because we
278N/A can't delay the response properly until we are back, so instead of
278N/A being properly synchronous we just keep open the fd and close it
278N/A when done. That means clients don't get a succesful method reply,
278N/A but much rather a disconnect on success.
278N/A
278N/A* document that service reload may be implemented as service reexec
278N/A
1436N/A* remember which condition failed for services, not just the fact that something failed
278N/A
278N/A* use opterr = 0 for all getopt tools
278N/A
278N/A* properly handle loop back mounts via fstab, especially regards to fsck/passno

278N/A* allow services with no ExecStart= but with an ExecStop=
278N/A
1436N/A* add proper journal support to "systemctl --user status ..."
278N/A
278N/A* add _SYSTEMD_USER_UNIT= field to journal entries
278N/A
278N/A* remove Fedora /dev/null logic from localed.c, now that system-config-keyboard is gone
278N/A delete /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/00-system-setup-keyboard.conf from spec file
278N/A
278N/A* journal: expose current disk usage
1436N/A
278N/A* dracut-shutdown needs to be ordered before unmounting /boot
278N/A
278N/A* wiki: document new logind LockSessions() call
278N/A
278N/A* initialize the hostname from the fs label of /, if /etc/hostname does not exist?
278N/A
278N/A* logind: different policy actions for idle, suspend, shutdown blockers: allow idle blockers by default, don't allow suspend blockers by default
278N/A
278N/A* install README to /etc/rc.d/init.d (if support for that is enabled) helping people who use "ls" there to figure out which services exist.
278N/A
278N/A* logind: ignore inactive login screens when checking whether power key should be handled
278N/A
278N/A* rename "userspace" to "core-os"
278N/A
278N/A* systemctl: "Journal has been rotated since unit was started." message is misleading
278N/A
278N/A* syscall filter: add knowledge about compat syscalls
278N/A
278N/A* syscall filter: don't enforce no new privs?
278N/A
278N/A* syscall filter: option to return EPERM rather than SIGSYS?
278N/A
278N/A* syscall filter: port to libseccomp
278N/A
278N/A* logind: wakelock/opportunistic suspend support
278N/A
278N/A* switch-root: sockets need relabelling
278N/A
278N/A* systemd-analyze post-boot is broken for initrd
278N/A
278N/A* man: clarify that time-sync.target is not only sysv compat but also useful otherwise. Same for similar targets
278N/A
278N/A* .device aliases need to be implemented with the "following" logic, probably.
278N/A
278N/A* refuse taking lower-case variable names in sd_journal_send() and friends.
278N/A
278N/A* load-fragment: when loading a unit file via a chain of symlinks
278N/A verify that it isn't masked via any of the names traversed.
278N/A
278N/A* journald: we currently rotate only after MaxUse+MaxFilesize has been reached.
278N/A
278N/A* Document:
278N/A - PID 1 D-Bus API
278N/A
278N/A* introduce Type=pid-file
278N/A
278N/A* systemctl list-unit-files appears to be broken for symlinked units in /usr/lib
278N/A
278N/A* maybe allow services with ExecStop= set, but no ExecStart=?

278N/A
278N/A* efi: honour timezone efi variables for default timezone selection
278N/A
278N/A* efi: automatically mount EFI partition to /boot if no such entry exists in /etc/fstab and /boot is empty
278N/A gummiboot exports the EFI system partion (ESP) device:
278N/A /sys/firmware/efi/vars/LoaderDeviceIdentifier-4a67b082-0a4c-41cf-b6c7-440b29bb8c4f/data
278N/A Acpi(PNP0A03,0)/Pci(1F|2)/?/HD(Part1,Sig1FCBC57F-4BFC-4C2B-91A3-9C84FBCD9AF1)
278N/A '/' is the separator for the device path list

278N/A
278N/A* handle C-A-Del in logind, like the power/suspend buttons?

278N/A or use the users cgroup information when /proc/*/loginuid is not available.
278N/A
278N/A* pam_systemd: try to get old session id from cgroup, if audit sessionid cannot be determined
278N/A
278N/A* pam: when leaving a session explicitly exclude the ReleaseSession() caller process from the killing spree
278N/A
278N/A* maybe introduce ~/.config/locale.conf and apply it within PAM
278N/A
278N/A* readahead: make use of EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT, as used by http://e4rat.sourceforge.net/
278N/A

278N/A
278N/A* logind: allow showing logout dialog from system

278N/A
278N/A* Something is wrong with symlink handling of "autovt@.service" in "systemctl list-unit-files"

278N/A in Avahi, RPC and other socket registration services.
278N/A
278N/A* make sure systemd-ask-password-wall does not shutdown systemd-ask-password-console too early

278N/A
278N/A* support sd_notify() style notification when shutting down, to make auto-exit bus services work (STOPPING=1)
278N/A
278N/A* verify that the AF_UNIX sockets of a service in the fs still exist
278N/A when we start a service in order to avoid confusion when a user
278N/A assumes starting a service is enough to make it accessible
278N/A
278N/A* Make it possible to set the keymap independently from the font on
278N/A the kernel cmdline. Right now setting one resets also the other.

278N/A
278N/A* maybe introduce ExecRestartPre=
278N/A
278N/A* configurable jitter for timer events
278N/A
278N/A* timer events with system resume
278N/A
278N/A* timer events on calendar time
278N/A
278N/A* dot output for --test showing the 'initial transaction'
278N/A
278N/A* calendar time support in timer, iCalendar semantics for the timer stuff (RFC2445)
278N/A http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=99ee5315dac6211e972fa3f23bcc9a0343ff58c4
278N/A
278N/A* implicitly import "defaults" settings file into all types
278N/A
278N/A* writable cgroups dbus properties for live changes
278N/A
278N/A* read config fragments for all units from /lib/systemd/system/foobar.service.d/ to override/extend specific settings
278N/A
278N/A* port over to LISTEN_FDS/LISTEN_PID:
278N/A - rpcbind (/var/run/rpcbind.sock!) HAVEPATCH
278N/A - cups HAVEPATCH
278N/A - postfix, saslauthd
278N/A - apache/samba
278N/A - libvirtd (/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock-ro)
278N/A - bluetoothd (/var/run/sdp! @/org/bluez/audio!)
278N/A - distccd
278N/A
278N/A* auditd service files
278N/A
278N/A* fingerprint.target, wireless.target, gps.target, netdevice.target
278N/A
278N/A* io priority during initialization
278N/A
278N/A* systemctl list-jobs - show dependencies
278N/A
* add systemctl switch to dump transaction without executing it
* drop cap bounding set in readahead and other services
External:
* dbus:
- dbus --user
- natively watch for dbus-*.service symlinks (PENDING)
- allow specification of socket mode/umask when allocating DBusServer
- allow disabling of fd passing when connecting a AF_UNIX connection
- allow disabling of UID passing for AUTH EXTERNAL
- always pass cred data along each message
* fix alsa mixer restore to not print error when no config is stored
* gnome-shell python script/glxinfo/is-accelerated must die
* make cryptsetup lower --iter-time
* patch kernel for xattr support in /dev, /proc/, /sys and /sys/fs/cgroup?
* NTP: the kernel's 11-minutes-mode syncs the system time to the RTC, but only
in an ~30 minutes window. It does not adjust larger differences. Find a way
to tell the kernel, to always do a full time sync when the RTC is in UTC and
we are in 11-minutes-mode. When we trust the system time to NTP we also want
the RTC to sync up.
* kernel: add device_type = "fb", "fbcon" to class "graphics"
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
* %m in printf() instead of strerror(errno);
* pahole
* set_put(), hashmap_put() return values check. i.e. == 0 doesn't free()!
* use __secure_getenv() instead of getenv() where appropriate
Scheduled for removal (or fixing):
* xxxOverridable dependencies
