systemd System and Service Manager
+CHANGES WITH 201:
+
+ * journalctl --update-catalog now understands a new --root=
+ option to operate on catalogs found in a different root
+ directory.
+
+ * During shutdown after systemd has terminated all running
+ services a final killing loop kills all remaining left-over
+ processes. We will now print the name of these processes
+ when we send SIGKILL to them, since this usually indicates a
+ problem.
+
+ * If /etc/crypttab refers to password files stored on
+ configured mount points automatic dependencies will now be
+ generated to ensure the specific mount is established first
+ before the key file is attempted to be read.
+
+ * 'systemctl status' will now show information about the
+ network sockets a socket unit is listening on.
+
+ * 'systemctl status' will also shown information about any
+ drop-in configuration file for units. (Drop-In configuration
+ files in this context are files such as
+ /etc/systemd/systemd/foobar.service.d/*.conf)
+
+ * systemd-cgtop now optionally shows summed up CPU times of
+ cgroups. Press '%' while running cgtop to switch between
+ percentage and absolute mode. This is useful to determine
+ which cgroups use up the most CPU time over the entire
+ runtime of the system. systemd-cgtop has also been updated
+ to be 'pipeable' for processing with further shell tools.
+
+ * 'hostnamectl set-hostname' will now allow setting of FQDN
+ hostnames.
+
+ * The formatting and parsing of time span values has been
+ changed. The parser now understands fractional expressions
+ such as "5.5h". The formatter will now output fractional
+ expressions for all time spans under 1min, i.e. "5.123456s"
+ rather than "5s 123ms 456us". For time spans under 1s
+ millisecond values are shown, for those under 1ms
+ microsecond values are shown. This should greatly improve
+ all time-related output of systemd.
+
+ * libsystemd-login and libsystemd-journal gained new
+ functions for querying the poll() events mask and poll()
+ timeout value for integration into arbitrary event
+ loops.
+
+ * localectl gained the ability to list available X11 keymaps
+ (models, layouts, variants, options).
+
+ * 'systemd-analyze dot' gained the ability to filter for
+ specific units via shell-style globs, to create smaller,
+ more useful graphs. I.e. it's now possible to create simple
+ graphs of all the dependencies between only target units, or
+ of all units that Avahi has dependencies with.
