It is now fully supported. + * The unified cgroup hierarchy added in Linux 4.5 is now supported. + Use systemd.unified_cgroup_hierarchy=1 on the kernel command line + to enable. + WARNING: it is not possible to use previous systemd versions with + systemd.unified_cgroup_hierarchy=1 and the new kernel. Therefore it + is necessary to also update systemd in the initramfs if using the + unified hierarchy. Updated selinux policy is also required. + + * LLDP support has been extended, and both passive (receive-only) + and active (sender) modes are supported.
