+CHANGES WITH 246:
* The service manager gained basic support for cgroup v2 freezer. Units
can now be suspended or resumed either using new systemctl verbs,
* .socket units gained a new boolean setting PassPacketInfo=. If
enabled, the kernel will attach additional per-packet metadata to all
- packets read from the socket, as ancillary message. This controls the
- IP_PKTINFO, IPV6_RECVPKTINFO, NETLINK_PKTINFO socket options,
+ packets read from the socket, as an ancillary message. This controls
+ the IP_PKTINFO, IPV6_RECVPKTINFO, NETLINK_PKTINFO socket options,
depending on socket type.
* .service units gained a new setting RootHash= which may be used to
enabled by default, please submit a patch that adds it to the
database (see /usr/lib/udev/hwdb.d/60-autosuspend.hwdb).
- * systemd-udevd gained new configuration option timeout_signal= as well
- as corresponding kernel command line option udev.timeout_signal=.
+ * systemd-udevd gained the new configuration option timeout_signal= as well
+ as a corresponding kernel command line option udev.timeout_signal=.
The option can be used to configure the UNIX signal that the main
daemon sends to the worker processes on timeout. Setting the signal
to SIGABRT is useful for debugging.
Description"). Support for "MUD" URLs was also added to the LLDP
stack, configurable in the [LLDP] section in .network files.
+ * The Mode= settings in [MACVLAN] and [MACVTAP] now support 'source'
+ mode. Also, the sections now support a new setting SourceMACAddress=.
+
* systemd-networkd's .netdev files now support a new setting
VLANProtocol= in the [Bridge] section that allows configuration of
the VLAN protocol to use.
control the inode limit for the per-user $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR tmpfs
instance.
- * systemd-firstboot gained a new --root-password-hashed= parameter for
- setting the root user's password as UNIX password hash. There's a new
- --delete-root-password switch which instead of setting a password for
- the root user, removes it so that log-in without a password is
- permitted. There's now --force which if specified means any existing
- configuration is overwritten by the specified settings. It also
- gained a new --kernel-command-line= parameter which may be used to
- set the /etc/kernel/cmdline file of an OS image.
-
* A new generator systemd-xdg-autostart-generator has been added. It
generates systemd unit files from XDG autostart .desktop files, and
may be used to let the systemd user instance manage services that are
specified on the command line (by default, the tool will not override
what has already been set before, i.e. is purely incremental).
+ * systemd-firstboot gained support for a new --image= switch, which is
+ similar to --root= but accepts the path to a disk image file, on
+ which it then operates.
+
* A new sd-path.h API has been added to libsystemd. It provides a
simple API for retrieving various search paths and primary
directories for various resources.
document the methods, signals and properties.
* The expectations on user/group name syntax are now documented in

https://systemd.io/USER_NAMES
https://systemd.io/CONVERTING_TO_HOMED
https://systemd.io/JOURNAL_FILE_FORMAT
+ * The interface for containers (https://systemd.io/CONTAINER_INTERFACE)
+ has been extended by a set of environment variables that expose
+ select fields from the host's os-release file to the container
+ payload. Similarly, host's os-release files can be mounted into the
+ container underneath /run/hosts. Together, those mechanisms provide a
+ standardized way to expose information about the host to the
+ container payload. Both interfaces are implemented in systemd-nspawn.
+
* All D-Bus services shipped in systemd now implement the generic
LogControl1 D-Bus API which allows clients to change log level +
target of the service during runtime.
