Overview
Request 198586 accepted
VERIFY_SIG is not set, as it is expected to cause build loops.
If you want to set it to 1, then it would depend on request 198583.
- Update to version 2.23.2:
nsenter(1):
* this NEW COMMAND provides command line interface to setns()
Linux syscall and allows to run program with namespaces of
other processes
unshare(1):
* supports new PID and USER namespaces
fdisk(8):
* provides experimental support for GUID Partition Table (GPT),
the implementation is still not complete and some (unimportant)
features are missing.
* ~50% of fdisk code has been refactored, this task is going to
be complete in the next release. The goal is to have libfdisk
shared between all fdisks.
partx(8):
* supports new "update" command (implemented by
BLKPG_RESIZE_PARTITION ioctl)
mount(8):
* supports new userspace mount option x-mount.mkdir[=] to
create mountpoints on demand
* the support for propagation flags has been improved, now the
flags could be specified in /etc/fstab and used together with
regular mount options. It's also possible to specify more
propagation flags together. This EXPERIMENTAL feature is
implemented by additional mount(2) syscalls, because Linux does
not allow to use propagation flags with another options or more
flags together.
umount(8):
* supports new command line option --recursive to recursively
unmount all sub-mounts for the specified mountpoint * supports
new command line option --all-targets to unmount all
mountpoints in the current namespace for the specified
filesystem * the options --recursive and --all-targets could be
used together
dmesg(1):
* supports new command line options --color, --human and
--nopager, the --human option enables relative times, colors and
pager support.
su(1):
* supports new command line options --group and --supp-group to
specify primary and supplementary groups
chfn(1) and chsh(1):
* the commands could be linked with libuser to support non-local
accounts modification (e.g. LDAP, etc).
kill(1):
* the command has been improved to be compatible with procps
version, the procps version is deprecated now, the util-linux
version is enabled by default.
blkdiscard(8):
* this NEW COMMAND discard sectors on a device (for example on
SSD disks)
sulogin(8):
* provides multi-console feature from SysVinit
findmnt(8):
* provides new columns FREQ, PASSNO, ID, OPT-FIELDS, PROPAGATION
lslocks(8):
* provides new column BLOCKER and detects blocked locks
lsblk(8):
* supports new command line option --scsi and new columns HCTL,
TRANsport VENDOR and REVision
swapon(8) and losetup(8):
* the commands prints basic overview by default if no option
specified
column(1):
* supports new command line option --output-separator to specify
table output delimiter
rename(1):
* supports new command line option --symlink to rename symlink
target
hwclock(8):
* supports new command line option --compare to periodically
compare the Hardware Clock to the System Time (based on
adjtimex -c)
ipcs(1):
* supports new command line options --bytes and --human
wipefs(1):
* supports new command line option --force to force erase on used
devices
