You mean 'being passed on the kernel cmdline', I assume ? Do we consider interactive boot essential (I think not) ? Should mention something about forced fsck, maybe.

Some set number of releases?) Can you clarify this a bit ? I assume what we want is that future systemd releases remain backwards compatible with systemd units of today. > SERVICE HANDLING > - Running 'chkconfig <foo> <(null)|on|off>' on a service managed by systemd > will return the correct code/perform an appropriate action. > - Running 'service <foo> <start|stop|...>' on a service managed by systemd > will perform the appropriate action (via systemctl), and return > similar errors. > - Running '/etc/init.d/<foo> <start|stop|...>' will not break the systemd > environment, while still performing the action specified, and shall return > similar errors. > > GENERAL SANITY > - Booting a system shall achieve a similar result as booting in upstart: > -- The same set of services will be started. I don't think this is a requirement on systemd, really. If we make changes to the default system configuration to not include a service in F14 that was included in F13, that is not a systemd problem. So, I think what you really mean here is: systemd will start all services that are configured to be included in the default install (and dependencies), but no others. > -- The services shall function the same. This is again not really much of a systemd requirement. At most, we should probably test that socket activation does not affect the functionality of services (ie that socket activation works as promised). Of course, this is only an issue if we actually have any socket-activated services in F14. > -- The same set of devices and filesystems shall be mounted. > -- The same set of devices and filesystems shall be fscked. 'Same', compared to what ? I think this needs to be expanded to specify under what conditions filesystems were mounted/fscked in F13. > ORDERING > - rc.local will run as the final service on bootup. > - gettys will not start until after rc.local.

Again, the best we can ask for is backwards compatibility, I think.
