CHANGES WITH 217:
* journalctl gained option -t/--identifier to match on the
syslog identifier and --utc option to show timestamps in UTC
timezone. journalctl now also accepts -n/--lines=all to
disable line cap under a pager.
* journalctl gained the new options -t/--identifier= to match
on the syslog identifier (aka "tag"), as well as --utc to
show log timestamps in the UTC timezone. journalctl now also
accepts -n/--lines=all to disable line capping in a pager.
* Services can notify the manager before they start a reload
(by sending RELOADING=1) or shutdown (by sending
STOPPING=1). This allows the manager to track and show the
internal state of daemons and closes a race condition when
the process is still running but has closed its d-bus

* User units are now loaded also from
$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/systemd/user/. This is similar to the
/run/systemd/user directory that was already previously
supported, but is under the control of the user.
* A timeout for the start of the system can be configured. The
system can be configured to reboot or poweroff if the basic
system default target is not reached before the timeout (new
StartTimeoutSec=, StartTimeoutAction=,
StartTimeoutRebootArgument= options).
* A timeout for the bootup of the whole system can now be
configured. The system can be configured to reboot or
poweroff if the basic system default target is not reached
before the timeout (new StartTimeoutSec=,
StartTimeoutAction=, StartTimeoutRebootArgument= options).
* systemd-logind can be configured to also handle lid switch
events even when the machine is docked or multiple displays

* systemctl gained two new commands "add-wants" and
"add-requires" for pulling in units from specific targets
easily.
* If the word "rescue" is specified on the kernel command line
the system will now boot into rescue mode (aka
rescue.target), which was previously available only by
specifying "1" or "systemd.unit=rescue.target" on the kernel

mirrors the already existing "emergency" kernel command line
option.
* New kernel command line options mount.usr=, mount.usrflags=,
usrfstype= have been added that match root=, rootflags=,
rootfstype= but allow mounting a specific file system to
/usr.
* The $NOTIFY_SOCKET is now also passed to control processesof
services, not only the main process.
* This version reenables support for fsck's -l switch. This
means at least version v2.25 of util-linux is required for
operation, otherwise dead-locks on device nodes may
occur. Again: you need to update util-linux to at least
v2.25 when updating systemd to v217.
