file hierarchy of specific services, following the same rules and
constraints.
* Support for a new special "root=tmpfs" kernel command-line option has
been added. When specified, a tmpfs is mounted on /, and mount.usr=
should be used to point to the operating system implementation.
* A new configuration file /etc/veritytab may be used to configure
dm-verity integrity protection for block devices. Each line is in the
format "volume-name data-device hash-device roothash options",

unified v2 cgroup hierarchy is used, and "v1" means that legacy v1
hierarchy or the hybrid hierarchy are used.
* A new PrivateIPC= setting on a unit file allows executed processes to
be moved into a private IPC namespace, with separate System V IPC
identifiers and POSIX message queues.
A new IPCNamespacePath= allows the unit to be joined to an existing
IPC namespace.
* The tables of system calls in seccomp filters are now automatically
generated from kernel lists exported on
https://fedora.juszkiewicz.com.pl/syscalls.html.

* systemd-networkd gained support for the "B.A.T.M.A.N. advanced"
wireless routing protocol that operates on ISO/OSI Layer 2 only and
uses ethernet frames to route/bridge packets. This encompasses a new
"batadv" netdev Type=, a new [BatmanAdvanced] section with a bunch of
new settings in .netdev files, and a new BatmanAdvanced= setting in
.network files.
* systemd.network files gained a [Network] RouteTable= configuration
switch to select the routing policy table.

"tainted", to make it clearer that using the legacy hierarchy is not
recommended.
* systemd-localed will now refuse to configure a keymap which is not
installed in the file system. This is intended as a bug fix, but
could break cases where systemd-localed was used to configure the
keymap in advanced of it being installed. It is necessary to install
the keymap file first.
* The main git development branch has been renamed to 'main'.
* mmcblk[0-9]boot[0-9] devices will no longer be probed automatically
