- Release v208:
+ logind gained support for facilitating privileged input and drm
devices access for unprivileged clients (helps Wayland /
kmscon).
+ New kernel command line luks.options= allows to specify LUKS
options, when used with luks.uuid=
+ tmpfileS.d snippets can uses specifier expansion in path names
(%m, %b, %H, %v).
+ New tmpfiles.d command "m" introduced to change
owner/group/access mode of a file/directory only if it exists.
+ MemorySoftLimit= cgroup settings is no longer supported
(underlying kernel cgroup attribute will disappear in the
future).
+ memeory.use_hierarchy cgroup attribute is enabled for all
cgroups systemd creates in memory cgroup hierarchy.
+ New filed _SYSTEMD_SLICE= is logged in journal messages related
to a slice.
+ systemd-journald will no longer adjust the group of journal
files it creates to "systemd-journal" group. Permissions and
owernship is adjusted when package is upgraded.
+ Backlight and random seed files are now stored in
/var/lib/systemd.
+ Boot time performance measurements included ACPI 5.0 FPDT
informations if available.

- version 206 , highlights:
* Unit files now understand the new %v specifier which
resolves to the kernel version string as returned by "uname-r".
* "journalctl -b" may now be used to look for boot output of a
specific boot. Try "journalctl -b -1"
* Creation of "dead" device nodes has been moved from udev
into kmod and tmpfiles.
* The udev "keymap" data files and tools to apply keyboard
specific mappings of scan to key codes, and force-release
scan code lists have been entirely replaced by a udev
"keyboard" builtin and a hwdb data file.
- remove patches now in upstream
- systemd now requires libkmod >=14 and cryptsetup >= 1.6.0
- systemd now require the kmod tool in addition to the library.

- Update to release 205:
+ two new unit types have been introduced:
- Scope units are very similar to service units, however, are
created out of pre-existing processes -- instead of PID 1
forking off the processes.
- Slice units may be used to partition system resources in an
hierarchial fashion and then assign other units to them. By
default there are now three slices: system.slice (for all
system services), user.slice (for all user sessions),
machine.slice (for VMs and containers).
+ new concept of "transient" units, which are created at runtime
using an API and not based on configuration from disk.
+ logind has been updated to make use of scope and slice units to
manage user sessions. Logind will no longer create cgroups
hierchies itself but will relying on PID 1.
+ A new mini-daemon "systemd-machined" has been added which
may be used by virtualization managers to register local
VMs/containers. machinectl tool has been added to query
meta-data from systemd-machined.
+ Low-level cgroup configuration options ControlGroup=,
ControlGroupModify=, ControlGroupPersistent=,
ControlGroupAttribute= have been removed. High-level attribute
settings or slice units should be used instead?
+ A new bus call SetUnitProperties() has been added to alter
various runtime parameters of a unit, including cgroup
parameters. systemctl gained set-properties command to wrap
this call.
+ A new tool "systemd-run" has been added which can be used to
run arbitrary command lines as transient services or scopes,
while configuring a number of settings via the command

- Add udev MSFT compability rules (bnc#805059).
add: 1007-add-msft-compability-rules.patch
- Add sg3_utils requires, need it by 61-msft.rules (bnc#805059).
- Clean-up spec file, put udev patches after systemd patches.
- Rebase patches so they would apply nicely.

- Update to release 202:
+ 'systemctl list-jobs' got some polishing. '--type=' argument
may now be passed more than once. 'systemctl list-sockets' has
been added.
+ systemd gained a new unit 'systemd-static-nodes.service'
that generates static device nodes earlier during boot, and
can run in conjunction with udev.
+ systemd-nspawn now places all containers in the new /machine
top-level cgroup directory in the name=systemd hierarchy.
+ bootchart can now store its data in the journal.
+ journactl can now take multiple --unit= and --user-unit=
switches.
+ The cryptsetup logic now understands the "luks.key=" kernel
command line switch. If a configured key file is missing, it
will fallback to prompting the user.
- Rebase some patches
- Update handle-SYSTEMCTL_OPTIONS-environment-variable.patch to
properly handle SYSTEMCTL_OPTIONS
- Fix regression in the default for tmp auto-deletion
(systemd-tmp-safe-defaults.patch, FATE#314974).
- Add chromebook lid switch as a power switch to logind rule to
enable suspend on lid close
- Update to release 202:
+ 'systemctl list-jobs' got some polishing. '--type=' argument
may now be passed more than once. 'systemctl list-sockets' has
