and task 'scope'.

Core
====
-- connman_element removal
+- Personal firewall
Priority: Low
Complexity: C8
- Owner: Samuel Ortiz <sameo@linux.intel.com>
+
+ Discuss and implement a basic and safe firewalling strategy into
+ Connman. Provide a D-Bus API for personal firewalling.
-- VPNc
+- PACRunner extensions
Priority: Low
- Complexity: C2
+ Complexity: C4
+
+ Support more URI schemes, support multiple connections, tighter
+ security integration.
+
+
+- Check logging produced by connman_info()
+
+ Priority: Medium
+ Complexity: C1
+
+ Check that logging produced by connman_info() contains meaningful messages
+ and get rid of the unnecessary ones.
+
+
+- Remove --nobacktrace option
+
+ Priority: Medium
+ Complexity: C1
+ When: 2.0
+
+ Remove the --nobacktrace option or change it to --backtrace depending on
+ the level of systemd integration or other factors.
+
+- Clean up data structure usage
-- WiFi tethering
Priority: Medium
Complexity: C4
- WiFi tethering should be done through an extended wpa_supplicant
- D-Bus API, as STA and AP modes are typically mutually exclusive.
+ Use hash tables, queues and lists in the code. Check on the currently used
+ data structures and see if something can be simplified.
-- Session API implementation
+- Unit tests for DHCP, DNS and HTTP
- Priority: High
+ Priority: Low
Complexity: C4
- Owner: Daniel Wagner <daniel.wagner@bmw-carit.de>
- Owner: Samuel Ortiz <sameo@linux.intel.com>
- The session API should provide a connection abstraction in order to
- prioritize applications network accesses, prevent or allow network
- and bearer roaming, or provide applications with a way to request
- for periodic network connections. On-demand connections will be
- implemented through this API as well.
- See http://www.mail-archive.com/connman@connman.net/msg01653.html
+ Create unit tests for these components starting with DHCP. Use gtest
+ from GLib for this task similarly to what has been done for OBEX in Bluez
+ and oFono in general.
-- Provisioning D-Bus API
+- Support other time sources than NTP
- Priority: Medium
+ Priority: Low
+ Complexity: C2
+
+ Support other time sources like cellular, GPS in addition to NTP.
+
+
+- Get interface names from src/device.c
+
+ Priority: Low
Complexity: C2
- Owner: Henri Bragge <henri.bragge@ixonos.com>
- The current service provisioning lacks a D-Bus interface for modifying
- existing configurations.
+ Instead of using ioctls in connman_inet_ifindex and connman_inet_ifname,
+ utilize the information already provided by netlink in src/device.c.
-- WiSPR support
+- Support D-Bus ObjectManager
Priority: Medium
Complexity: C4
- Owner: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
- Based on the portal detection parsing results, and provisioned
- credentials, ConnMan should be able to initiate a WiSPR authentication.
+ Support D-Bus ObjectManager by using functionality already present in
+ ./gdbus. Method calls and signals are already registered with gdbus, but
+ properties and replies especially in Agent are still handled with plain
+ dbus library function calls.
+ With this, Manager API is removed, and a WiFi P2P API based on
+ ObjectManager common to Linux desktops can be implemented.
-- IPv6 enhancements
- Priority: High
- Complexity: C8
- Owner: Jukka Rissanen <jukka.rissanen@nokia.com>
+Tethering
+=========
+
+- Verify if bridge has been correctly created and configured
+
+ Priority: Low
+ Complexity: C1
- Support IPv6 only networks so that system can go online even if
- there is no IPv4 address. Also support more than one IPv6 address
- in one device so that the addresses are reported correctly via
- dbus interface. The autoconf IPv6 addresses need also some tweaking
- so that system will go online properly.
+ When enabling tethering check if there was any error while creating and
+ configuring the bridge before continue. It has been done only for WiFi
+ technology, for other tethering technologies it should be evaluated
+ and implemented in case it is advantageous.

+- Clean up WiFi data structure usage

-
-- Fast Connect
-
- Priority: Low
- Complexity: C4
- Owner: Samuel Ortiz <sameo@linux.intel.com>
+ Struct wifi_data is passed as a pointer in some of the wifi plugin
+ callbacks. For example removing a WiFi USB stick causes RTNL and
+ wpa_supplicant to call the wifi plugin at the same time causing the
+ freeing of the wifi data structure. Fix up the code to have proper
+ reference counting or other handling in place for the shared wifi data
+ and the members in the data structure.
- EAP-AKA/SIM
Priority: Medium
Complexity: C2
- Owner: Samuel Ortiz <sameo@linux.intel.com>
This EAP is needed for SIM card based network authentication.
ConnMan here plays a minor role: Once wpa_supplicant is set up for

+ wifi's technology set_regdom implementation. Removing autoscan fallback.

+- L2TP & PPTP compatibility prefix removal
+
+ Priority: Medium
Complexity: C1
- Owner: Henri Bragge <henri.bragge@ixonos.com>
+ When: connman 2.0
+ The VPN config file provisioning patchset contains code that makes
+ PPP options to be marked by "PPPD." prefix. The code supports also
+ old "L2TP." and "PPTP." prefix for PPP options. Remove the compatibility
+ code and only allow "PPPD." prefix for PPP options.
-- WiFi p2p
+
+- Update VPNC and OpenVPN with Agent support
Priority: Medium
Complexity: C2
+ Update VPNC and OpenVPN with VPN Agent support to request possible user
+ ids and passphrases.
-Bluetooth
-=========
-- DUN client
+- Change OpenConnect plugin to use libopenconnect
- Priority: Low
+ Priority: Medium
Complexity: C4
+ Current implementation of OpenConnect uses screenscraping and interactive
+ mode for accepting self signed certificates and reacting to PKCS pass
+ phrase requests. This should be replaced with libopenconnect use. It may be
+ worthwhile to attempt to replace the whole authentication with the use of
+ openconnect_obtain_cookie() whatever authentication type is used. This
+ would lead to using only the cookie when connecting (--cookie-on-stdin)
+ and would cleanup the code at run_connect().
+
+ The usage of stdout can be removed as unnecessary. Cookie should be
+ retrieved with openconnect_obtain_cookie(). Remove this also from
+ connman_task_run().
-- DUN server
+ Function is_valid_protocol() must use openconnect_get_supported_protocols.
+ Also the static const char *protocols[] would be unnecessary.
+
+ Reading the stderr with byte-by-byte approach is to be removed, as well as
+ are the PKCS failures and requests in stderr IO channel processing.
+
+ The use of interactive mode toggle is to be removed. Non-interactive mode
+ must be used, which leads to using --syslog with each authentication type
+ as task arg.
+
+ If the peer certificate cannot be verified with normal means it is because
+ the peer certificate is self signed and the user setting
+ "AllowSelfSignedCert" has to be used for the verify certificate callback
+ reply. The callback for certificate validation must return zero if user has
+ allowed self signed certificates. In such case save the SHA1 fingerprint of
+ server certificate as it is done now, otherwise indicate error to
+ libopenconnect.

+ The connmanctl command line tool should support Clock API.
