CHANGES WITH 244 in spe:
* systemd-udevd: removed the 30s timeout for killing stale workers on
exit. systemd-udevd now waits for workers to finish. The hard-coded
exit timeout of 30s was too short for some large installations, where
driver initialization could be prematurely interrupted during initrd
processing if the root file system had been mounted and init was
preparing to switch root. If udevd is run without systemd and workers
are hanging while udevd receives an exit signal, udevd will now exit
when udev.event_timeout is reached for the last hanging worker. With
systemd, the exit timeout can additionally be configured using
TimeoutStopSec= in systemd-udevd.service.
* Support for the cpuset cgroups v2 controller has been added.
Processes may be restricted to specific CPUs using the new
AllowedCPUs= setting, and to specific memory NUMA nodes using the new

that affects all corresponding unit files.
* systemctl gained support for 'stop --job-mode=triggering' which will
stop the specified unit and any units which could trigger it.
* Unit status display now includes units triggering and triggered by
the unit being shown.
* The RuntimeMaxSec= setting is now supported by scopes, not just
.service units. This is particularly useful for PAM sessions which
create a scope unit for the user login. systemd.runtime_max_sec=
setting may used with the pam_systemd module to limit the duration
of the PAM session, for example for time-limited logins.
* A new @pkey system call group is now defined to make it easier to
whitelist memory protection syscalls for containers and services
which need to use them.

("U2F")/CTAP2 security tokens based on the usage declared in their
report and descriptor and outputs suitable environment variables.
