systemd 259

Новый systemd к нам мчится! Чем же порадует энтузиастов GNU/Linux самый распространённый системный менеджер в последнем релизе уходящего года?

расширение интерфейса Varlink IPC (догоняем D-Bus);
опция ExecReloadPost= для юнитов (стреляет после перечитывания конфигурации сервисом);
конфиги /etc/systemd/systemd-sysext.conf и /etc/systemd/systemd-confext.conf для соответствующих сервисов;
systemd-vmspawn научился пробрасывать системного пользователя внутрь виртуалки с помощью --bind-user=/--bind-user-shell=;
опцию --recovery-key= у homectl теперь можно использовать и при операции update, а не только при создании пользователя;
systemd-machined и systemd-importd теперь можно запускать отдельно для каждого пользователя;
run0 получил опцию --empower (использует соответствующую системную группу) для повышения привилегий через механизм capabilities без смены UID - меньше шансов создать файлы от рута или ещё как-то напортачить ненароком;
расширения конфиг файлов (которые в чё-то.d/ папке) с суффиксом .ignore теперь, ожидаемо, игнорируются;
множество не менее праздничных нововведений и улучшений.

Поддержка скриптов System V объявлена устаревшей и планируется к удалению – системы и пакеты, пребывающие в состоянии летаргии, нужно из него вывести.
