* "machinectl shell" will now open the shell in the home
directory of the selected user by default.
- * A new systemd.crash_reboot=1 kernel command line option has
- been added that triggers a reboot after crashing. This can
- also be set through CrashReboot= in systemd.conf.
-
* The CrashChVT= configuration file setting is renamed to
CrashChangeVT=, following our usual logic of not
abbreviating unnecessarily. The old directive is still
processes have been killed, because the unit had no
processes attached, or similar.
+ * A new systemd.crash_reboot=1 kernel command line option has
+ been added that triggers a reboot after crashing. This can
+ also be set through CrashReboot= in systemd.conf.
+
+ * The RuntimeDirectory= setting now understands unit
+ specifiers like %i or %f.
+
* A new (still internal) libary API sd-ipv4acd has been added,
that implements address conflict detection for IPv4. It's
based on code from sd-ipv4ll, and will be useful for
detecting DHCP address conflicts.
- * The RuntimeDirectory= setting now understands unit
- specifiers like %i or %f.
+ * File descriptors passed during socket activation may now be
+ named. A new API sd_listen_fds_with_names() is added to
+ access the names. The default names may be overriden,
+ either in the .socket file using the FileDescriptorName=
+ parameter, or by passing FDNAME= when storing the file
+ descriptors using sd_notify().
* systemd-networkd gained support for:
- Configuring PreferredSource= for static routes in
.network files.
- * udev will now create /dev/disk/by-path links for ATA devices
- on kernels where that is supported.
+ * The "ask-password" framework used to query for LUKS harddisk
+ passwords or SSL passwords during boot gained support for
+ caching passwords in the kernel keyring, if it is
+ available. This makes sure that the user only has to type in
+ a passphrase once if there are multiple objects to unlock
+ with the same one. Previously, such password caching was
+ available only when Plymouth was used; this moves the
+ caching logic into the systemd codebase itself. The
+ "systemd-ask-password" utility gained a new --keyname=
+ switch to control which kernel keyring key to use for
+ caching a password in. This functionality is also useful for
+ enabling display managers such as gdm to automatically
+ unlock the user's GNOME keyring if its passphrase, the
+ user's password and the harddisk password are the same, if
+ gdm-autologin is used.
* When downloading tar or raw images using "machinectl
pull-tar" or "machinectl pull-raw", a matching ".nspawn"
only intermittendly, and even restores state if the previous
system shutdown was abrupt rather than clean.
- * File descriptors passed during socket activation may now be
- named. A new API sd_listen_fds_with_names() is added to
- access the names. The default names may be overriden,
- either in the .socket file using the FileDescriptorName=
- parameter, or by passing FDNAME= when storing the file
- descriptors using sd_notify().
-
* The journal daemon gained support for vacuuming old journal
files controlled by the number of files that shall remain,
in addition to the already existing control by size and by
manually vacuum journal files to leave only the specified
number of files in place.
- * Galician, Serbian, Turkish and Korean translations were added.
+ * udev will now create /dev/disk/by-path links for ATA devices
+ on kernels where that is supported.
- Contributions from:
+ * Galician, Serbian, Turkish and Korean translations were added.
