logins. All of systemd's own system users have been changed to be
marked as fully locked.
+ * systemd-coredump now supports a new EnterNamespace= option, which
+ defaults to off. If enabled systemd-coredump will access the mount
+ namespace of any crashed process to acquire debug symbol information,
+ in order to be able to symbolized backtraces. This option is useful
+ to improve backtraces of processes of containerized
+ applications. (Note that the host systemd-coredump preferably
+ dispatches coredump processing to the container itself, if it
+ supports that. Only full-OS containers which run systemd inside will
+ support this however, in which case EnterNamespace= might be an
+ alternative approach to acquire symbolized backtraces.)
