* sd-boot will now build with SBAT by default in order to facilitate
working with recent versions of Shim that require it to be present.
* sd-boot can now parse Microsoft Windows' Boot Configuration Data.
This is used to robustly generate boot entry titles for Windows.
* A new generic target unit factory-reset.target has been added. It is
hooked into systemd-logind similar in fashion to
reboot/poweroff/suspend/hibernate, and is supposed to be used to

systemd.netdev files gained the [IPoIB] section.
* systemd-networkd and systemd-udevd now support net.ifname-policy=
option on the kernel command-line. This is implemented through the
systemd-network-generator service that automatically generates
appropriate .link, .network, and .netdev files.
* systemd-networkd's handling of Endpoint= resolution for WireGuard
interfaces has been improved.

* sd-stub (the EFI stub that can be glued in front of a Linux kernel)
gained the ability to pick up credentials and sysext files placed
next to the kernel image file, wrap them in a cpio archive and pass
as an additional initrd to the invoked Linux kernel, in effect
placing those files in the /.extra/ directory of the initrd
environment. This is useful to implement trusted initrd environments
which are fully authenticated but still can be extended (via sysexts)
and parameterized (via encrypted/authenticated credentials, see
above).

Credentials can be located next to the kernel image file (credentials
specific to a single boot entry), or in one of the shared directories
(credentials applicable to multiple boot entries).

ext2, ext3, and f2fs file systems.
* Mount units and units generated from /etc/fstab entries with 'noauto'
are now ordered the same as other units. Effectively, they will be
started earlier (if something actually pulled them in) and stopped
later, similarly to normal mount units that are part of
fs-local.target. This change should be invisibile to users, but
should prevent those units from being stopped too early during
shutdown.
