For the beginning this + "hwdb" is populated with data from the well-known PCI and + USB database, but also includes PNP, ACPI and OID data. In + the longer run this indexed database shall grow into + becoming the one central database for non-essential + userspace device metadata. Previously, data from the PCI/USB + database was only attached to the select devices, since the + lookup was a relatively expensive operation due to O(n) time + complexity. Since this is now O(log(n)), we decided to add + in this data for all devices where this is available, by + default. Note that the indexed database needs to be rebuilt + when new data files are installed. To achieve this you need + to update your packaging scripts to invoke "udevadm hwdb + --update" after installation of hwdb data files. For + RPM-based distributions we introduced the new + %udev_hwdb_update macro for this purpose. + + * The Journal gained support for the "Message Catalog", an + indexed database to link up additional information with + journal entries. For further details please check: + + http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/catalog + + The indexed message catalog database also needs to be + rebuilt after installation of message catalog files. Use + "journalctl --update-catalog" for this. For RPM-based + distributions we introduced the %journal_catalog_update + macro for this purpose. + + * The Python Journal bindings gained support for the standard + Python logging framework. + + * The Journal API gained new functions for checking whether + the underlying file system of a journal file is capable of + properly reporting file change notifications, or whether + applications that want to reflect journal changes "live" + need to recheck journal files continously in appropriate + time intervals. + + * It is now possible to set the "age" field for tmpfiles + entries to 0, indicating that files matching this entry + shall always be removed when the directories are cleaned up. + + * coredumpctl gained a new "gdb" verb which invokes gdb + right-away on the selected coredump. + + * There's now support for "hybrid sleep" on kernels that + support this, in addition to "suspend" and "hibernate". Use + "systemctl hybrid-sleep" to make use of this. + + * logind's HandleSuspendKey= setting (and related settings) + now gained support for a new "lock" setting to simply + request the screen lock on all local sessions, instead of + actually executing a suspend or hibernation. + + * systemd will now mount the EFI variables file system by + default. + + * Socket units now gained support for configuration of the + SMACK security label. + + * timedatectl will now output the time of the last and next + daylight saving change. + + * We dropped support for various legacy and distro-specific + concepts, such as insserv, early-boot SysV services + (i.e. those for non-standard runlevels such as 'b' or 'S') + or ArchLinux /etc/rc.conf support. We recommend the + distributions who still need support this to either continue + to maintain the necessary patches downstream, or find a + different solution. (Talk to us if you have questions!) + + * Various systemd components will now bypass PolicyKit checks + for root and otherwise handle properly if PolicyKit is not + found to be around. This should fix most issues for + PolicyKit-less systems. Quite frankly this should have been + this way since day one. It is absolutely our intention to + make systemd work fine on PolicyKit-less systems, and we + consider it a bug if something doesn't work as it should if + PolicyKit is not around. + + * For embedded systems it is now possible to build udev and + systemd without blkid and/or kmod support. + + * "systemctl switch-root" is now capable of switching root + more than once. I.e. in addition to transitions from the + initrd to the host OS it is now possible to transition to + further OS images from the host. This is useful to implement + offline updating tools. + + * Various other additions have been made to the RPM macros + shipped with systemd. Use %udev_rules_update() after + installing new udev rules files. %_udevhwdbdir, + %_udevrulesdir, %_journalcatalogdir, %_tmpfilesdir, + %_sysctldir are now available which resolve to the right + directories for packages to place various data files in. + + * journalctl gained the new --full switch (in addition to + --all, to disable ellipsation for long messages. + + Contributions from: Anders Olofsson, Auke Kok, Ben Boeckel, + Colin Walters, Cosimo Cecchi, Daniel Wallace, Dave Reisner, + Eelco Dolstra, Holger Hans Peter Freyther, Kay Sievers, + Chun-Yi Lee, Lekensteyn, Lennart Poettering, Mantas Mikulėnas, + Marti Raudsepp, Martin Pitt, Mauro Dreissig, Michael Biebl, + Michal Schmidt, Michal Sekletar, Miklos Vajna, Nis Martensen, + Oleksii Shevchuk, Olivier Brunel, Ramkumar Ramachandra, Thomas + Bächler, Thomas Hindoe Paaboel Andersen, Tom Gundersen, Tony + Camuso, Umut Tezduyar, Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek + CHANGES WITH 195: * journalctl gained new --since= and --until= switches to diff --git a/configure.ac b/configure.ac index ea4f44cef9..393c7ce88e 100644 --- a/configure.ac +++ b/configure.ac @@ -20,7 +20,7 @@ AC_PREREQ([2.64]) AC_INIT([systemd], - [195], + [196], [http://bugs.freedesktop.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=systemd], [systemd], [http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd]) |
