CHANGES WITH 234:
* Meson is now supported as build system in addition to Automake. It is
our plan to remove Automake in one of our next releases, so that
Meson becomes our exclusive build system. Hence, please start using
the Meson build system in your downstream packaging. There's plenty
of documentation around how to use Meson, the extremely brief
summary:
./autogen.sh && ./configure && make && sudo make install
becomes:
meson build && ninja -C build && sudo ninja -C build install
* Unit files gained support for a new JobRunningTimeoutUSec= setting,
which permits configuring a timeout on the time a job is
running. This is particularly useful for setting timeouts on jobs for
.device units.
* Unit files gained two new options ConditionUser= and ConditionGroup=
for conditionalizing units based on the identity of the user/group
running a systemd user instance.
* systemd-networkd now understands a new FlowLabel= setting in the
[VXLAN] section of .network files, as well as a Priority= in
[Bridge], GVRP= + MVRP= + LooseBinding= + ReorderHeader= in [VLAN]
and GatewayOnlink= + IPv6Preference= + Protocol= in [Route]. It also
gained support for configuration of GENEVE links, and IPv6 address
labels. The [Network] section gained the new IPv6ProxyNDP= setting.
* .link files now understand the new Port= setting.
* systemd-networkd's DHCP support gained support for DHCP option 119
(domain search list).
* systemd-networkd gained support for serving IPv6 address ranges using
the Router Advertisment protocol. The new .network configuration
section [IPv6Prefix] may be used to configure the ranges to
serve. This is implemented based on a new, minimal, native server
implementation of RA.
* journalctl's --output= switch gained support for a new parameter
"short-iso-precise" for a mode where timestamps are shown as precise
ISO date values.
* systemd-udevd's "net_id" builtin may now generate stable network
interface names from IBM PowerVM VIO devices as well as ACPI platform
devices.
* MulticastDNS support in systemd-resolved may now be explicitly
enabled/disabled using the new MulticastDNS= configuration file
option.
* systemd-resolved may now optionally use libidn2 instead of the libidn
for processing internationalized domain names. The old version
remains supported, as it has a much smaller footprint.
* "machinectl pull-tar" and related call may now do verification of
downloaded images using SUSE-style .sha256 checksum files in addition
to the already existing support for validating using Ubuntu-style
SHA256SUMS files.
* sd-bus gained support for a new sd_bus_message_appendv() call which
is va_list equivalent of sd_bus_message_append().
* sd-boot gained support for validating images using SHIM/MOK.
* The SMACK code learnt support for "onlycap".
* systemd-mount --umount is now much smarter in figuring out how to
properly unmount a device given its mount or device path.
* The code to call libnss_dns as a fallback from libnss_resolve when
the communication with systemd-resolved fails was removed. This

removed after the all plugins exit. So, if KERNEL_INSTALL_MACHINE_ID
is empty, all plugins should not put anything in BOOT_DIR_ABS.
