CHANGES WITH 229:
- * Creation of the legacy /run/lock/lockdev/ directory was
- dropped from tmpfiles.d/legacy.conf. Hardly any software uses
- that any more, and better locking mechanisms like flock() have
+ * The systemd-resolved DNS resolver service has gained a substantial
+ set of new features, most prominently it may now act as a DNSSEC
+ validating stub resolver. DNSSEC mode is currently turned off by
+ default, but it is expected that this is turned on by default in one
+ of the next releases. For now, we invite everybody to test the DNSSEC
+ logic by setting DNSSEC=allow-downgrade in
+ /etc/systemd/resolved.conf. The service also gained a full set of
+ D-Bus interfaces, including calls to configure DNS and DNSSEC
+ settings per link (for consumption by external network management
+ software). systemd-resolved (and systemd-networkd along with it) now
+ know to distinguish between "search" and "routing" domains. The
+ former are used to qualify single-label names, the latter are purely
+ used for routing lookups within certain domains to specific
+ links. resolved will now also synthesize RRs for all entries from
+ /etc/hosts.
+
+ * The systemd-resolve tool (which is a client utility for
+ systemd-resolved, and previously experimental) has been beefed up
+ considerably and is now fully supported and documented. It has moved
+ from /usr/lib/systemd to /usr/bin because.
+
+ * /dev/disk/by-path/ symlink support has been (re-)added for virtio
+ devices.
+
+ * The systemd-activate socket activation testing tool gained support
+ for SOCK_DGRAM and SOCK_SEQPACKET sockets using the new --datagram
+ and --seqpacket switches. It also has been extended to support both
+ new-style and inetd-style file descriptor passing. Use the new
+ --inetd switch to request inetd-style file descriptor passing.
+
+ * Most systemd tools now honour a new $SYSTEMD_COLORS environment
+ variable, which takes a boolean value. If set to false ANSI color
+ output is disabled in the tools even when run on a terminal that
+ supports it.
+
+ * The VXLAN support in networkd now supports two new settings
+ DestinationPort= and PortRange=.
+
+ * A new systemd.machine_id= kernel command line switch has been added,
+ that may be used to set the machine ID in /etc/machine-id if it is
+ not initialized yet. This command line option has no effect if the
+ file is already initialized.
+
+ * systemd-nspawn gained a new --as-pid2 switch that invokes any
+ specified command line as PID 2 rather than PID 1 in the
+ container. In this mode PID 1 will be a minimal stub init process
+ that implements the special POSIX and Linux semantics of PID 1
+ regarding signal and child process management. Note that this stub
+ init process is implemented in nspawn itself and requires no support
+ from the container image. This new logic is useful to support running
+ arbitrary command lines in the container, as normal processes are
+ generally not prepared to run as PID 1.
+
+ * systemd-nspawn gained a new --chdir= switch for setting the current
+ working directory for the process started in the container.
+
+ * "journalctl /dev/sda" will now output all kernel log messages from
+ the specified device, in addition to all devices that are parents of
+ it. This should make log output about devices pretty useful, as long
+ as kernel drivers attach enough metadata to the log messages. (The
+ usual SATA drivers do.)
+
+ * The sd-journal API gained two new calls
+ sd_journal_has_runtime_files() and sd_journal_has_persistent_files()
+ that report whether log data from /run or /var has been found.
+
+ * journalctl gained a new switch "--fields" that prints all journal
+ record field names currently in use in the journal. This is backed
+ by two new sd-journal API calls sd_journal_enumerate_fields() and
+ sd_journal_restart_fields().
+
+ * Most configurable timeouts in systemd now expect an argument of
+ "infinity" to turn them off, instead of "0" as before. This follows
+ of a logic where a timeout of "0" means "now", and one of "infinity"
+ means "never". For compatibility where this was supported before 0
+ continues to be accepted to turn off timeouts.
+
+ * "systemctl reload-or-try-restart" has been renamed to "systemctl
+ try-reload-or-restart" to make clearer what it actually does, and
+ indicate that the "try" logic applies to both reloading and
+ restarting and not just restarting. The old name continues to be
+ accepted for compatibility.
+
+ * On boot-up when PID 1 detects that the system clock is before the
+ release date of the systemd version in use, the clock is now bumped
+ ahead to it. Previously, this was already done in timesyncd, in order
+ to avoid running with clocks set to the various clock epochs such as
+ 1902, 1938 or 1970. With this change the logic is now done in PID 1
+ in addition to timesyncd during early boot-up, so that it is enforced
+ before the first process is spawned by systemd. Note that the logic
+ in timesyncd remains, as it is more comprehensive and ensures
+ montonic clocks by maintaining a persistant timestamp file in
+ /var. Since /var is generally not available in earliest boot or the
+ initrd, this part of the logic remains in timesyncd, and is not done
+ by PID 1.
+
+ * A new service setting RuntimeMaxSec= has been added that may be used
+ to specify a maximum runtime for a service. If the timeout is hit the
+ service is terminated and put into a failure state.
+
+ * A new service setting AmbientCapabilities= has been added, that
+ allows configuration of additional Linux process capabilities that
+ are passed to the activated processes. This is only available on very
+ recent kernels.
+
+ * The process resource limit settings in service units may now be used
+ to configure hard and soft limits individually.
+
+ * The various libsystemd APIs such as sd-bus or sd-event now publically
+ expose support for gcc's __attribute__((cleanup())) C
+ extension. Specifically, for many object destructor functions
+ alternative versions whose names are suffixed with "p" and take a
+ pointer to a pointer to the object to destroy instead of just a
+ pointer to the object itself have been added. This is useful because
+ these destructor functions may be used directly as parameters to the
+ cleanup construct. Internally, systemd has been a heavy user of the
+ GCC extension since a long time, and with this change similar support
+ is now available to consumers of the library outside of systemd. Note
+ of course, that by using this extension in your sources compatibility
+ with old and strictly ANSI compatible C compilers is lost. However,
+ any gcc or LLVM version of the last years has been supporting this
+ extension just fine.
+
+ * Timer units gained support for a new setting RandomizedDelaySec= that
+ allows configuring an amount of additional randomized delay to add
+ to the time a timer elapses. This is useful to distribute timer
+ events over a time range to avoid load peaks in clusters or larger
+ setups.
+
+ * Calendar time specifications now support sub-second accuracy.
+
+ * Socket units now support listening on SCTP and UDP-lite protocol
+ sockets.
+
+ * The sd-event API now comes with a full set of man pages.
+
+ * Older versions of systemd contained experimental support for
+ compressing journal files and coredumps with the LZ4 compressor that
+ was not compatible with the lz4 binary (due to API limitations of the
+ lz4 library). This support has been removed; only support for files
+ compatible with the lz4 binary remains. This LZ4 logic is now
+ officially supported and no longer considered experimental.
+
+ * The dkr image import logic has been removed again from importd. dkr's
+ micro-services focus doesn't fit into the machine image focus of
+ importd, and quickly got out of date with the upstream dkr API.
+
+ * Creation of the /run/lock/lockdev/ directory was dropped from
+ tmpfiles.d/legacy.conf. Better locking mechanisms like flock() have
been available for many years. If you still need this, you need to
create your own tmpfiles.d config file with:
- d /run/lock/lockdev 0775 root lock -
+
+ d /run/lock/lockdev 0775 root lock -
