supports dumping raw DNS record data via the new --raw= switch now.
* systemd-logind will now by default terminate user processes that are
part of the user session scope unit (session-XX.scope) when the user
logs out. This behaviour is controlled by the
KillUserProcesses=yes|no setting in logind.conf, and previous default
of "no" is now changed to "yes". This means that user sessions will
be properly cleaned up after, but additional steps are necessary to

While the user is logged in at least once, user@.service is running,
and any service that should survive the end of any individual login
session can be started at a user service or scope using systemd-run.
systemd-run(1) man page has been extended with an example which
shows how to run screen in a scope unit underneath user@.service.
The same command works for tmux.

WARNING: it is not possible to use previous systemd versions with

* systemd-bootchart has been split out to a separate repository:
https://github.com/systemd/systemd-bootchart
* Compatibility libraries libsystemd-daemon.so, libsystemd-journal.so,
libsystemd-id128.so, and libsystemd-login.so which have been
deprecated since systemd-209 have been removed along along with the
corresponding pkg-config files. All symbols provided by the those

which have been deprecated since systemd-209 have been removed along
with the corresponding pkg-config files. All symbols provided by the
those libraries are provided by libsystemd.so.
* Capabilities= setting has been removed (it is ignored for backwards
compatibility). AmbientCapabilities= and CapabilityBoundingSet=
should be used instead.
* The Capabilities= unit file setting has been removed (it is ignored
for backwards compatibility). AmbientCapabilities= and
CapabilityBoundingSet= should be used instead.
* systemd-bus-proxyd has been removed, as kdbus will not be merged
in current form.
* "systemctl show" gained a new --value switch, which allows print a
only the contents of a specific unit property, without also printing
the property's name.
* A new command "systemctl revert" has been added that may be used to
revert to the vendor version of a unit file, in case local changes
have been made by adding drop-ins or overriding the unit file.
* "machinectl clean" gained a new verb to automatically remove all or
just hidden container images.
* systemd-bus-proxyd has been removed, as kdbus is unlikely to still be
merged into the kernerl in its current form.
* systemd-networkd gained support for configuring proxy ARP support for
each interface, via the ProxyArp= setting in .network files. It also
gained support for configuring the multicast querier feature of
bridge devices, via the new MulticastQuerier= setting in .netdev
files. A new setting PreferredLifetime= has been added for addresses
configured in .network file to configure the lifetime intended for an
address.
* systemd-tmpfiles gained support for a new line type "e" for emptying
directories, if they exist, without creating them if they don't.
* journalctl learned a new output mode "-o short-unix" that outputs log
lines prefixed by their UNIX time (i.e. seconds since Jan 1st, 1970
UTC). It also gained support for a new --no-hostname setting to
suppress the hostname column in the family of "short" output modes.
* systemd-nspawn gained support for automatically patching the UID/GIDs
of the owners and the ACLs of all files and directories in a
container tree to match the UID/GID user namespacing range selected
for the container invocation. This mode is enabled via the new
--private-user-chown switch. It also gained support for automatically
choosing a free, previously unused UID/GID range when starting a
container, via the new --private-users=pick setting (which implies
--private-user-chown). Together, these options for the first time
make user namespacing for nspawn containers fully automatic and thus
deployable. The systemd-nspaw@.service template unit file has been
changed to use this functionality by default.
* The default start timeout may now be configured on the kernel command
line via systemd.default_timeout_start_sec=. It was configurable
previously via the DefaultTimeoutStartSec= option in
/etc/systemd/system.conf already.
* Socket units gaineda new TriggerLimitIntervalSec= and
TriggerLimitBurst= setting to configure a limit on the activation
rate of the socket unit.
* The LimitNICE= setting now optionally takes normal UNIX nice values
in addition to the raw integer limit value. If the specified
parameter is prefixed with "+" or "-" and is in the range -20..19 the
value is understood as UNIX nice value. If not prefixed like this it
is understood as raw RLIMIT_NICE limit.
