@ -540,6 +540,53 @@ CHANGES WITH 247 in spe:
enabled in developer mode. It is thus recommended to set
'-Dmode=release' in end-user and distro builds.
* systemd-cryptsetup gained support for processing detached LUKS
headers specified on the kernel command line via the header=
parameter of the luks.options= kernel command line option. The same
device/path syntax as for key files is supported for header files
like this.
* The "net_id" built-in of udev has been updated to ignore ACPI _SUN
slot index data for devices that are connected through a PCI bridge
where the _SUN index is associated with the bridge instead of the
network device itself. Previously this would create ambiguous device
naming if multiple network interfaces were connected to the same PCI
bridge. Since this is a naming scheme incompatibility on systems that
possess hardware like this it has been introduced as new naming
scheme "v247". The previous scheme can be selected via the
"net.naming-scheme=v245" kernel command line parameter.
* ConditionFirstBoot= semantics have been modified to be safe towards
abnormal system power-off during first boot. Specifically, the
"systemd-machine-id-commit.service" service now acts as boot
milestone indicating when the first boot process is sufficiently
complete in order to not consider the next following boot also a
first boot. If the system is reset before this unit is reached the
first time, the next boot will still be considered a first boot; once
it has been reached, no further boots will be considered a first
boot. The "first-boot-complete.target" unit now acts as official hook
point to order against this. If a service shall be run on every boot
until the first boot fully succeeds it may thus be ordered before
this target unit (and pull it in) and carry ConditionFirstBoot=
appropriately.
* bootctl's set-default and set-oneshot commands now accept the three
special strings "@default", "@oneshot", "@current" in place of a boot
entry id. These strings are resolved to the current default and
oneshot boot loader entry, as well as the currently booted one. Thus
a command "bootctl set-default @current" may be used to make the
currently boot menu item the new default for all subsequent boots.
* A new generic target unit "initrd-cryptsetup.target" has been added
that is supposed to pull in all encrypted volumes that shall be set
up during the initrd phase. It takes the place of "cryptsetup.target"
and "remote-cryptsetup.target" that exist during the host boot
phase. In other words, the new "initrd-cryptsetup.target" is supposed
to take the role for "initrd-fs.target", but for encrypted volumes.
* "systemctl edit" has been updated to show the original effective unit
contents in commented form in the text editor.
CHANGES WITH 246:
* The service manager gained basic support for cgroup v2 freezer. Units
