Bug fixes:
- Ensured that
/var/log/journal/
is created early enough for systemd-journald to persist the logs on first boot (bootengine#60, baselayout#29) - Fixed
journalctl --user
permission issue (Flatcar#989) - Restored the support to specify OEM partition files in Ignition when
/usr/share/oem
is given as initrd mount point (bootengine#58)
Changes:
- Added a new
flatcar-reset
tool and boot logic for selective OS resets to reconfigure the system with Ignition while avoiding config drift (bootengine#55, init#91) - Added new image signing pub key to
flatcar-install
, needed for download verification of releases built from July 2023 onwards, if you have copies offlatcar-install
or the image signing pub key, you need to update them as well (init#92) - Added
pigz
to the image, a parallel gzip implementation, which is useful to speed up the (de)compression for large container image imports/exports (coreos-overlay#2504) - Enabled elfutils support in systemd-coredump. A backtrace will now appear in the journal for any program that dumps core (coreos-overlay#2489)
/etc
is now set up as overlayfs with the original/etc
folder being the store for changed files/directories and/usr/share/flatcar/etc
providing the lower default directory tree (bootengine#53, scripts#666)- On boot any files in
/etc
that are the same as provided by the booted/usr/share/flatcar/etc
default for the overlay mount on/etc
are deleted to ensure that future updates of/usr/share/flatcar/etc
are propagated - to opt out create/etc/.no-dup-update
in case you want to keep an unmodified config file as is or because you fear that a future Flatcar version may use the same file as you at which point your copy is cleaned up and any other future Flatcar changes would be applied (bootengine#54) - Specifying the OEM filesystem in Ignition to write files to
/usr/share/oem
is not needed anymore (bootengine#58) - Switched systemd log reporting to the combined format of both unit description, as before, and now the unit name to easily find the unit (coreos-overlay#2436)
