systemd/TODO

* bind mounts with 'fsck' fail and block for a minute:
    /foo /bar none bind 1 1
  (using fsck is wrong, but why do we block for a minute
   instead of just handling the error)

* oneshot services which do not remain: 'exited' instead of 'dead'?
  it should be visible in 'systemctl' that they have been run

* dot output for --test showing the 'initial transaction'

* calendar time support in timer, iCalendar semantics for the timer stuff (RFC2445)
  - check timerfd() patch: http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/11/23/290

* systemd --user
  - get PR_SET_ANCHOR merged: http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/2/2/165

* add VT tracking:
    - provide CK functionality
    - start getty 2-6 only when actual vt switch happens
      (same model as socket on-demand activation)

* implicitly import "defaults" settings file into all types

* port over to LISTEN_FDS/LISTEN_PID:

* fingerprint.target, wireless.target, gps.target

* set_put(), hashmap_put() return values check. i.e. == 0 doesn't free()!

* io priority during initialization

* if a service fails too often, make the service enter failed mode, and the socket, too.

* systemctl list-jobs - show dependencies

* accountsservice is borked

* auditd service files

* add systemctl switch to dump transaction without executing it

* suspend, resume

* systemctl auto-pager a la git

* readahead: btrfs/LVM SSD detection

* when processes remain in a service even though the start command failed enter active

* add seperate man page for [Install] settings

* only add quotacheck deps to .mount units which mention grpquota/usrquota in the mount flags

* systemctl condrestart should return 0 if service isn't running

* tmpfiles: allow specification of .conf files on cmdline

* allow runtime changing of log level and target

* automatically determine TERM= based on tty name even for /dev/console

* fix hotplug transactions

* isolate multi-user.target doesn't start a getty@tty1 if we run it from graphical.target

* alsa rule file, alsa service files, alsa state file → /var/lib, sequencer soll by device node ladbar

* place introspection data in ELF sections, read them with objcopy

* sendmail.service doesn't get rid PID file, fails to kill everything on stop

* global defaults for StandardOuput=xxx

Fedora:

* obsolete readhead in systemd pkg

* chkconfig → systemd enable/daemon-reload glue

* /var/lock, /var/run → what happens if rpm stuff is no %ghosted?

External:

* make cryptsetup lower --iter-time

* patch kernel for xattr support in /dev, /proc/, /sys and /sys/fs/cgroup.

* patch kernel for cpu feature modalias for autoloading aes/kvm/...

* place /etc/inittab with explaining blurb.

* pam_securetty should honour console=

* procps, psmisc, sysvinit-tools, hostname → util-linux-ng

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();

* pahole

device: do not merge devices Don't try to merge devices that have been created via dependencies when they appear in the system and can be recognized as the same. Instead, simply continue to maintain them independently of each other, however with the same state cycle. Why? Because otherwise we'd have a hard time to seperate the dependencies after the devices are unplugged again and we hence cannot be sure anymore that next time the device is plugged in it will carry the same names. Example: if one depndency refers to dev-sda.device and another one to dev-by-id-xxxyyy.device we only learn at time of plug in of the device that it is actually the same device that was ment. In the moment the device is unplugged again we won't know anymore their relation to each other and the next time the harddisk is plugged it might even appear as dev-by-id-xxxyyy.device and dev-sdb.service. To ensure the dependencies continue to have the meaning they were intended to have let's hence keep the .device objects seperate all the time, even when they are plugged in. This patch also introduces a new Following= property which points from the various .device units of a specific device to the main .device unit for it. This can be used by the client side to figure out the relation of the .device units to each other and even filter units from display. 2010-07-21 02:33:19 +08:00
