+ The <literal>CRIU (Checkpoint/Restore in User-space)</literal> project offers a user-space implementation of process and process group checkpoint/restore. With the user-space tools <package>crtools</package> available in this release it is possible checkpoint processes and restore them at a later time again (e.g. after a crash) or migrate the checkpointed process or process group to another system. CRIU aims to be as transparent as possible so that no instrumentation or re-compilation of the process to be checkpointed is necessary.
