|
||||
kernels is a necessity, -Dmemory-accounting-default=false can be used
|
||||
to revert this change.
|
||||
|
||||
* rpm scriptlets to update the udev hwdb and rules (%udev_hwdb_update,
|
||||
%udev_rules_update) and the journal catalog (%journal_catalog_update)
|
||||
from the upgrade scriptlets of individual packages now do nothing.
|
||||
Transfiletriggers have been added which will perform those updates
|
||||
once at the end of the transaction.
|
||||
|
||||
Similar transfiletriggers have been added to execute any sysctl.d
|
||||
and binfmt.d rules. Thus, it should be unnecessary to provide any
|
||||
scriptlets to execute this configuration from package installation
|
||||
scripts.
|
||||
|
||||
* systemd-sysusers gained a mode where the configuration to execute is
|
||||
specified on the command line, but this configuration is not executed
|
||||
directly, but instead it is merged with the configuration on disk,
|
||||
and the result is executed. This is useful for package installation
|
||||
scripts which want to create the user before installing any files on
|
||||
disk (in case some of those files are owned by that user), while
|
||||
still allowing local admin overrides.
|
||||
|
||||
This functionality is exposed to rpm scriplets through a new
|
||||
%sysusers_create_package macro. Old %sysusers_create and
|
||||
%sysusers_create_inline macros are deprecated.
|
||||
|
||||
A transfiletrigger for sysusers.d configuration is now installed,
|
||||
which means that it should be uncessary to call systemd-sysusers from
|
||||
package installation scripts, unless the package installs any files
|
||||
owned by those newly-created users, in which case
|
||||
%sysusers_create_package should be used.
|
||||
|
||||
* Analogous change has been done for systemd-tmpfiles: it gained a mode
|
||||
where the command-line configuration is merged with the configuration
|
||||
on disk. This is exposed as the new %tmpfiles_create_package macro,
|
||||
and %tmpfiles_create is deprecated. A transfiletrigger is installed
|
||||
for tmpfiles.d, hence it should be unnecessary to call systemd-tmpfiles
|
||||
from package installation scripts.
|
||||
|
||||
* sysusers.d configuration for a user may now also specify the group
|
||||
number, in addition to the user number ("u username 123:456"), or
|
||||
without the user number ("u username -:456").
|
||||
|
||||
* Configution items for systemd-sysusers can now be specified as
|
||||
positional arguments when the new --inline switch is used.
|
||||
|
||||
* The login shell of users created through sysusers.d may now be
|
||||
specified (previously, it was always /bin/sh for root and
|
||||
/sbin/nologin for other users).
|
||||
|
||||
* systemd-analyze gained a new --global switch to look at global user
|
||||
configuration. It also gained a unit-paths verb to list the unit load
|
||||
paths that are compiled into systemd (which can be used with
|
||||
--systemd, --user, or --global).
|
||||
|
||||
* udevadm trigger gained a new --settle/-w option to wait for any
|
||||
triggered events to finish (but just those, and not any other events
|
||||
which are triggered meanwhile).
|
||||
|
||||
* The action that systemd-logind takes when the lid is closed and the
|
||||
machine is connected to external power can now be configured using
|
||||
HandleLidSwitchExternalPower= in logind.conf. Previously, this action
|
||||
was determined by HandleLidSwitch=, and, for backwards compatibility,
|
||||
is still is, if HandleLidSwitchExternalPower= is not explicitly set.
|
||||
|
||||
* journalctl will periodically call sd_journal_process() to make it
|
||||
resilient against inotify queue overruns when journal files are
|
||||
rotated very quickly.
|
||||
|
||||
* Two new functions in libsystemd — sd_bus_get_n_queued_read and
|
||||
sd_bus_get_n_queued_write — may be used to check the number of
|
||||
pending bus messages.
|
||||
|
||||
* systemd gained a new
|
||||
org.freedesktop.systemd1.Manager.AttachProcessesToUnit dbus call
|
||||
which can be used to migrate foreign processes to scope and service
|
||||
units. The primary user for this new API is systemd itself: the
|
||||
systemd --user instance uses this call of the systemd --system
|
||||
instance to migrate processes if it itself gets the request to
|
||||
migrate processes and the kernel refuses this due to access
|
||||
restrictions. Thanks to this "systemd-run --scope --user …" works
|
||||
again in pure cgroups v2 environments when invoked from the user
|
||||
session scope.
|
||||
|
||||
* A new TemporaryFileSystem= setting can be used to mask out part of
|
||||
the real file system tree with tmpfs mounts. This may be combined
|
||||
with BindPaths= and BindReadOnlyPaths= to hide files or directories
|
||||
not relevant to the unit, while still allowing some paths lower in
|
||||
the tree to be accessed.
|
||||
|
||||
ProtectHome=tmpfs may now be used to hide user home and runtime
|
||||
directories from units, in a way that is mostly equivalent to
|
||||
"TemporaryFileSystem=/home /run/user /root".
|
||||
|
||||
* Non-service units are now started with KeyringMode=shared by default.
|
||||
This means that mount and swapon and other mount tools have access
|
||||
to keys in the main keyring.
|
||||
|
||||
* /sys/fs/bpf is now mounted automatically.
|
||||
|
||||
* QNX virtualization is now detected by systemd-detect-virt and may
|
||||
be used in ConditionVirtualization=.
|
||||
|
||||
* IPAccounting= may now be enabled also for slice units.
|
||||
|
||||
* A new -Dsplit-bin= build configuration switch may be used to specify
|
||||
whether bin and sbin directories are merged, or if they should be
|
||||
included separately in $PATH and various listings of executable
|
||||
directories. The build configuration scripts will try to autodetect
|
||||
the proper values of -Dsplit-usr= and -Dsplit-bin= based on build
|
||||
system, but distributions are encouraged to configure this
|
||||
explicitly.
|
||||
|
||||
* A new -Dok-color= build configuration switch may be used to change
|
||||
the colour of "OK" status messages.
|
||||
|
||||
* UPGRADE ISSUE: serialization of units using JoinsNamespaceOf= with
|
||||
PrivateNetwork=yes was buggy in previous versions of systemd. This
|
||||
means that after the upgrade and daemon-reexec, any such units must
|
||||
be restarted.
|
||||
|
||||
* INCOMPATIBILITY: as announced in the NEWS for 237, systemd-tmpfiles
|
||||
will not exclude read-only files owned by root from cleanup.

||||
