again don't consider turning this on in your stable, LTS or
production release just yet.
+ * systemd-resolve conveniently resolves DANE records with the --tlsa
+ option and OPENPGPKEY records with the --openpgp option.
+
* Testing tool /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-activate is renamed to
systemd-socket-activate and installed into /usr/bin. It is now fully
supported.
+ * The unified cgroup hierarchy added in Linux 4.5 is now supported.
+ Use systemd.unified_cgroup_hierarchy=1 on the kernel command line
+ to enable.
+ WARNING: it is not possible to use previous systemd versions with
+ systemd.unified_cgroup_hierarchy=1 and the new kernel. Therefore it
+ is necessary to also update systemd in the initramfs if using the
+ unified hierarchy. Updated selinux policy is also required.
+
+ * LLDP support has been extended, and both passive (receive-only)
+ and active (sender) modes are supported. Passive mode
+ ("routers-only") is enabled by default in systemd-networkd.
+ Active LLDP mode is enabled by default for containers on the
+ internal network.
+ "networkctl lldp" can be used to list information gathered.
+
+ * Headers for LLDP support (sd-lldp.h) are now public.
+
+ * The Unique Identifier sent in DHCP requests can be configured.
+
+ * systemd-journald now uses separate threads to flush changes to
+ disk when closing journal files.
+
+ * systemd-ask-password skips printing of the password to stdout
+ with --no-output which can be useful in scripts.
+
+ * Framebuffer devices (/dev/fb*) and 3D printers and scanners
+ (devices tagged with ID_MAKER_TOOL) are now tagged with
+ "uaccess" and are available to logged in users.
+
+ * systemd-bootchart has been split out to a separate repository:
+ https://github.com/systemd/systemd-bootchart
+
+ * Compatibility libraries libsystemd-daemon.so, libsystemd-journal.so,
+ libsystemd-id128.so, and libsystemd-login.so which have been
+ deprecated since systemd-209 have been removed along along with the
+ corresponding pkg-config files. All symbols provided by the those
+ libraries are provided by libsystemd.so.
+
+ * Capabilities= setting has been removed (it is ignored for backwards
+ compatibility). AmbientCapabilities= and CapabilityBoundingSet=
+ should be used instead.
+
+ * systemd-bus-proxyd has been removed, as kdbus will not be merged
+ in current form.
+
CHANGES WITH 229:
* The systemd-resolved DNS resolver service has gained a substantial
