This work is useful to allow Wayland display servers (and similar programs, such as kmscon) to run under the user's ID and access input and drm devices which are normally protected. When this is used (and the kernel is new enough) logind will "mute" IO on the file descriptors passed to Wayland as long as it is in the background and "unmute" it if it returns into the foreground. This allows secure session switching without allowing background sessions to eavesdrop on input and display data. This also introduces session switching support if VT support is turned off in the kernel, and on seats that are not seat0. * A new kernel command line option luks.options= is understood now which allows specifiying LUKS options for usage for LUKS encrypted partitions specified with luks.uuid=. * tmpfiles.d(5) snippets may now use specifier expansion in path names. More specifically %m, %b, %H, %v, are now replaced by the local machine id, boot id, hostname, and kernel version number. * A new tmpfiles.d(5) command "m" has been introduced which may be used to change the owner/group/access mode of a file or directory if it exists, but do nothing if it doesn't. * This release removes high-level support for the MemorySoftLimit= cgroup setting. The underlying kernel cgroup attribute memory.soft_limit= is currently badly designed and likely to be removed from the kernel API in its current form, hence we shouldn't expose it for now. * The memory.use_hierarchy cgroup attribute is now enabled for all cgroups systemd creates in the memory cgroup hierarchy. This option is likely to be come the built-in default in the kernel anyway, and the non-hierarchial mode never made much sense in the intrinsically hierarchial cgroup system. * A new field _SYSTEMD_SLICE= is logged along with all journal messages containing the slice a message was generated from. This is useful to allow easy per-customer filtering of logs among other things. * systemd-journald will no longer adjust the group of journal files it creates to the "systemd-journal" group. Instead we rely on the journal directory to be owned by the "systemd-journal" group, and its setgid bit set, so that the kernel file system layer will automatically enforce that journal files inherit this group assignment. The reason for this change is that we cannot allow NSS look-ups from journald which would be necessary to resolve "systemd-journal" to a numeric GID, because this might create deadlocks if NSS involves synchronous queries to other daemons (such as nscd, or sssd) which in turn are logging clients of journald and might block on it, which would then dead lock. A tmpfiles.d(5) snippet included in systemd will make sure the setgid bit and group are properly set on the journal directory if it exists on every boot. However, we recommend adjusting it manually after upgrades too (or from RPM scriptlets), so that the change is not delayed until next reboot. * Backlight and random seed files in /var/lib/ have moved into the /var/lib/systemd/ directory, in order to centralize all systemd generated files in one directory. * Boot time performance measurements (as displayed by "systemd-analyze" for example) will now read ACPI 5.0 FPDT performance information if that's available to determine how much time BIOS and boot loader initialization required. With a sufficiently new BIOS you hence no longer need to boot with Gummiboot to get access to such information.
