Features

  • dracut:

    • allow overriding the systemctl command for sysroot with $SYSTEMCTL for cross compilation

    • add additional global variables

      Variables like dbusconfdir or systemdnetwork are now exported
      to the individual modules as global variables. If they are not set
      in the distribution dracut config files, they are set via pkg-config

    • A --no-uefi option as been added to the CLI options to disable a default uefi=yes
      set by a configuration file.

  • kernel-modules: add modules from drivers/memory for arm

  • network-legacy: send dhcp in parallel on all devices via the single-dhcp option

  • dbus: introduce a meta module for dbus

  • dbus-broker: introduce the dbus-broker module

  • dbus-daemon: introduce the dbus-daemon module

  • systemd-ask-password: introduce the systemd-ask-password module

  • systemd-coredump: introduce the systemd-coredump module

  • systemd-modules-load: introduce the systemd-modules-load module

  • systemd-repart: introduce the systemd-repart module

  • systemd-sysctl: introduce the systemd-sysctl module

  • systemd-sysusers: introduce the systemd-sysuser module
