Fedora Update Notification
FEDORA-2015-4991
2015-03-30 02:35:52
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : systemd
Product : Fedora 21
Version : 216
Release : 24.fc21
URL : http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd
Summary : A System and Service Manager
Description :
systemd is a system and service manager for Linux, compatible with
SysV and LSB init scripts. systemd provides aggressive parallelization
capabilities, uses socket and D-Bus activation for starting services,
offers on-demand starting of daemons, keeps track of processes using
Linux cgroups, supports snapshotting and restoring of the system
state, maintains mount and automount points and implements an
elaborate transactional dependency-based service control logic. It can
work as a drop-in replacement for sysvinit.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
Some binaries for remote logging were moved from systemd to systemd-journal-gatewayd
subpackage. This was a packaging error, but since the unit files were already in the
subpackage, anyone using them most likely had both installed.
- Ignore 'debug' from the kernel command line in user binaries
- Hardware and key maps updates
- mmc-rpmb are not probed anymore, avoiding read timeouts
- Disarm watch if initialization failed
- Ignore events on a socket when a service is shutting down
- Allow user service to run without $HOME (useful after a user is deleted)
- More concurrent connections to systemd daemons are allowed
- Font setup is triggered by vtcon not fbcon event, which should work better on some
systems
- Properly report when the user cannot access journal files
- gpt-auto-generator detects /srv partitions properly
- Fix segmentation fault during switch-root with SELinux policy loaded (#1185604)
- Error handling when enabling or disabling ntp is improved(#1014315), although this does
not change the fact that SELinux denials will still happen
- Fixes for other bugs listed
