* DBus policy files are now installed into /usr rather than /etc. Make
sure your system has dbus >= 1.9.18 running before upgrading to this

environment variables based on files dropped into
~/.config/environment.d/.
+ * systemd-resolved now includes the new, recently published 2017 DNSSEC
+ root key (KSK).
+
+ * coredumpctl will now show additional information about truncated and
+ inaccessible coredumps, as well as coredumps that are still being
+ processed. It also gained a new --quiet switch for suppressing
+ additional informational message in its output.
+
+ * coredumpctl gained support for only showing coredumps newer and/or
+ older than specific timestamps, using the new --since= and --until=
+ options, reminiscent of journalctl's options by the same name.
+
+ * hostnamed has been updated to report a new chassis type of
+ "convertible" to cover "foldable" laptops that can both act as a
+ tablet and as a laptop, such as various Lenovo Yoga devices.
+
+ * Note that from this version on, CONFIG_CRYPTO_USER_API_HASH,
+ CONFIG_CRYPTO_HMAC and CONFIG_CRYPTO_SHA256 need to be enabled in the
+ kernel.
+
+ * The "hybrid" control group mode has been modified to improve
+ compatibility with "legacy" cgroupsv1 setups. Specifically, the
+ "hybrid" setup of /sys/fs/cgroup is now pretty much identical to
+ "legacy" (including /sys/fs/cgroup/systemd as "name=systemd" named
+ cgroupsv1 hierarchy), the only externally visible change being that
+ the cgroupsv2 hierarchy is also mounted, to
+ /sys/fs/cgroup/unified. This should provide a large degree of
+ compatibility with "legacy" cgroupsv1, while taking benefit of the
+ better management capabilities of cgroupsv2.
+
+ * The default control group setup mode may be selected both a boot-time
+ via a set of kernel command line parameters (specifically:
+ systemd.unified_cgroup_hierarchy= and
+ systemd.legacy_systemd_cgroup_controller=), as well as a compile-time
+ default selected on the configure command line
+ (--with-default-hierarchy=). The upstream default is "hybrid"
+ (i.e. the cgroupsv1 + cgroupsv2 mixture discussed above) now, but
+ this will change in a future systemd version to be "unified" (pure
+ cgroupsv2 mode). The third option for the compile time option is
+ "legacy", to enter pure cgroupsv1 mode. We recommend downstream
+ distributions to default to "hybrid" mode for release distributions,
+ starting with v233. We recommend "unified" for development
+ distributions (specifically: distributions such as Fedora's rawhide)
+ as that's where things are headed in the long run. Use "legacy" for
+ greatest stability and compatibility only.
+
+ * Note one current limitation of "unified" and "hybrid" control group
+ setup modes: the kernel currently does not permit the systemd --user
+ instance (i.e. unprivileged code) to migrate processes between two
+ disconnected cgroup subtrees, even if both are managed and owned by
+ the user. This effectively means "systemd-run --user --scope" doesn't
+ work when invoked from outside of any "systemd --user" service or
+ scope. Specifically, it is not supported from session scopes. We are
+ working on fixing this in a future systemd version. (See #3388 for
+ further details about this.)
