systemd System and Service Manager
+CHANGES WITH 226:
+
+ * The DHCP implementation of systemd-networkd gained a set of new
+ features:
+
+ - Server and client now support transmission and reception of
+ timezone information. It can be configured via the newly introduced
+ network options 'DHCP.UseTimezone=', 'DHCPServer.EmitTimezone=',
+ and 'DHCPServer.Timezone='.
+ Transmission of timezone information is enabled for containers by
+ default now. Furthermore, if systemd-timesyncd is running, it will
+ be updated with the received information.
+
+ - The DHCP server now supports emitting DNS and NTP information. It
+ can be enabled and configured via 'EmitDNS=', 'DNS=', 'EmitNTP=',
+ and 'NTP='.
+ If transmission of DNS and NTP information is enabled, but no
+ specific data-set is configured, the uplink information is used.
+
+ - Lease timeouts can now be configured via 'MaxLeaseTimeSec=' and
+ 'DefaultLeaseTimeSec='.
+
+ - The DHCP server now supports improved predictability of leases.
+ Clients are more likely to get the same lease information back,
+ even if the server loses state.
+
+ - The DHCP server supports two new configuration options to specify
+ the lease pool, 'PoolOffset=' and 'PoolSize='.
+
+ * The encapsulation limit of tunnels in systemd-networkd can now be
+ configured via 'EncapsulationLimit='. It allows modifying the maximum
+ additional levels of encapsulation that are permitted to be prepended
+ to a packet.
+
+ * systemd now supports the concept of user-buses over session-buses, if
+ used with dbus-1.10 (and enabled via dbus --enable-user-session).
+
+ * systemd-networkd now supports predictable interface names for virtio
+ devices.
+
+ * systemd now optionally supports the unified cgroup hierarchy. If
+ enabled via the kernel command-line option
+ 'systemd.unified_cgroup_hierarchy=1', systemd will try to mount the
+ unified cgroup hierarchy directly on /sys/fs/cgroup. If not enabled,
+ or not available, systemd will fall back to legacy cgroups.
+ Host system and containers can mix and match legacy and unified
+ hierarchies as they wish. By default, nspawn will use the same
+ hierarchy as the host.
+ Please note that the unified hierarchy is an experimental kernel
+ feature and is likely to change in one of the next kernel releases.
+ Therefore, it should not be enabled by default.

+
+CHANGES WITH 225:
+
+ * machinectl gained a new verb 'shell' which opens a fresh shell on the
+ target machine. It is similar to 'login', but spawns the shell
+ directly. The pseudo machine '.host' now refers to the local host and
+ is used by default. Hence, 'machinectl shell' can be used as
+ replacement for 'su' which spawns the session as a fresh systemd
+ unit.
+
+ * systemd-networkd learned to cope with private-zone DHCP options and
+ allows other programs to query the values.

+
+CHANGES WITH 224:
+
+ * The systemd-efi-boot-generator functionality was merged into
+ systemd-gpt-auto-generator.
+
+ * systemd-networkd now supports Group Policy for vxlan devices. It can
+ be enabled via the new boolean configuration option called
+ 'GroupPolicyExtension='.

+ -- Berlin, 2015-07-31
+
+CHANGES WITH 223:
+
+ * The python-systemd code has been removed from the systemd repository.
+ A new repository has been created which accommodates the code from
+ now on, and we kindly ask distributions to create a separate package
+ for this: https://github.com/systemd/python-systemd
+
+ * The systemd daemon will now reload its main configuration
+ (/etc/systemd/system.conf) on daemon-reload.
+
+ * sd-dhcp now exposes vendor specific extensions via
+ sd_dhcp_lease_get_vendor_specific().
+
+ * systemd-networkd gained a number of new configuration options.
+
+ - A new boolean configuration option for TAP devices called
+ 'VNetHeader='. If set, the IFF_VNET_HDR flag is set for the
+ device, thus allowing to send and receive GSO packets.
+
+ - A new tunnel configuration option called 'CopyDSCP='.
+ If enabled, the DSCP field of ip6 tunnels is copied into the
+ decapsulated packet.
+
+ - A set of boolean bridge configuration options were added.
+ 'UseBPDU=', 'HairPin=', 'FastLeave=', 'AllowPortToBeRoot=',
+ and 'UnicastFlood=' are now parsed by networkd and applied to the
+ respective bridge link device via the respective IFLA_BRPORT_*
+ netlink attribute.
+
+ - A new string configuration option to override the hostname sent
+ to a DHCP server, called 'Hostname='. If set and 'SendHostname='
+ is true, networkd will use the configured hostname instead of the
+ system hostname when sending DHCP requests.
+
+ - A new tunnel configuration option called 'IPv6FlowLabel='. If set,
+ networkd will configure the IPv6 flow-label of the tunnel device
+ according to RFC2460.
+
+ - The 'macvtap' virtual network devices are now supported, similar to
+ the already supported 'macvlan' devices.
+
+ * systemd-resolved now implements RFC5452 to improve resilience against
+ cache poisoning. Additionally, source port randomization is enabled
+ by default to further protect against DNS spoofing attacks.
+
+ * nss-mymachines now supports translating UIDs and GIDs of running
+ containers with user-namespaces enabled. If a container 'foo'
+ translates a host uid 'UID' to the container uid 'TUID', then
+ nss-mymachines will also map uid 'UID' to/from username 'vu-foo-TUID'
+ (with 'foo' and 'TUID' replaced accordingly). Similarly, groups are
+ mapped as 'vg-foo-TGID'.

+
+CHANGES WITH 222:
+
+ * udev does not longer support the WAIT_FOR_SYSFS= key in udev rules.
+ There are no known issues with current sysfs, and udev does not need
+ or should be used to work around such bugs.
+
+ * udev does no longer enable USB HID power management. Several reports
+ indicate, that some devices cannot handle that setting.
+
+ * The udev accelerometer helper was removed. The functionality
+ is now fully included in iio-sensor-proxy. But this means,
+ older iio-sensor-proxy versions will no longer provide
+ accelerometer/orientation data with this systemd version.
+ Please upgrade iio-sensor-proxy to version 1.0.
+
+ * networkd gained a new configuration option IPv6PrivacyExtensions=
+ which enables IPv6 privacy extensions (RFC 4941, "Privacy Extensions
+ for Stateless Address") on selected networks.
+
+ * For the sake of fewer build-time dependencies and less code in the
+ main repository, the python bindings are about to be removed in the
+ next release. A new repository has been created which accommodates
+ the code from now on, and we kindly ask distributions to create a
+ separate package for this. The removal will take place in v223.

CHANGES WITH 220:
decompress bz2, xz, gzip compressed downloads if necessary,
and restore sparse files on disk. The daemon uses privilege
separation to ensure the actual download logic runs with
- fewer privileges than the deamon itself. machinectl has
+ fewer privileges than the daemon itself. machinectl has
gained new commands "pull-tar", "pull-raw" and "pull-dkr" to
make the functionality of importd available to the
user. With this in place the Fedora and Ubuntu "Cloud"
* systemd now provides a way to store file descriptors
per-service in PID 1.This is useful for daemons to ensure
that fds they require are not lost during a daemon
- restart. The fds are passed to the deamon on the next
+ restart. The fds are passed to the daemon on the next
invocation in the same way socket activation fds are
passed. This is now used by journald to ensure that the
various sockets connected to all the system's stdout/stderr
* When querying unit file enablement status (for example via
"systemctl is-enabled"), a new state "indirect" is now known
which indicates that a unit might not be enabled itself, but
- another unit listed in its Alias= setting might be.
+ another unit listed in its Also= setting might be.
* Similar to the various existing ConditionXYZ= settings for
units there are now matching AssertXYZ= settings. While
