Don't forget to + install nfs-utils 1.1.0 or newer with /sbin/[u]mount.{nfs,nfs4}. + + mount(8) doesn't include filesystem detection code anymore. You + have to compile --with-fsprobe={blkid,volume_id}, and libblkid + (e2fsprogs) or libvolume_id (udev >= v110) is required. + + mount(8) supports new relatime, context, fscontext, and defcontext + mount options. + + losetup(8) supports command line option "-a" to list all used loop + devices, '-s' to print a device name if "-f" and a file argument + are present, and "-r" to create a read-only loop device. + + fdisk(8) Sun label support has been improved. fdisk(8) is also able + to warn about detected GPT (fdisk doesn't support GPT). + + taskset(1) is independent on hardcoded NR_CPUS. chrt(1) supports + SCHED_BATCH scheduling policy. + + The package build system is now based on autotools. The build system + supports separate CFLAGS and LDFLAGS for suid programs (SUID_CFLAGS, + SUID_LDFLAGS). For more details see the README file + + hwclock(8) supports command line option --rtc=<path> and /dev/rtc0 + device. --systohc functionality has been improved, and it doesn't cause + a 500ms inaccuracy each time it is used. + + Audit system support (--with-audit) has been added to hwclock(8) and + login(1). + + SELinux support (--with-selinux) has been added to mkswap(8) and + mount(8). + + setarch(8) upstream has been merged with util-linux-ng. + + rtcwake(8) command has been added to util-linux-ng. + + arch(1) is deprecated in favor of "uname -m" or arch(1) from coreutils + (>= 6.9+). The util-linux-ng package doesn't build arch by default, + you have to use the option --enable-arch. + + +Fixed security issues: +--------------------- + + CVE-2007-0822 - mount(8) allows local users to trigger a NULL + dereference and an application crash + CVE-2006-7108 -

The kernel has not + supported v0 swap space format since 2.5.22. The new version v1 is + supported since 2.1.117. + +swapon(8): + - supports new command line option "-f/--fixpg" to reinitialize the + swap space with a wrong pagesize. As swap format depends on the pagesize + being used, it may happen that the pagesize of the swap space and the + current pagesize differ. + +login(1): + - requires /etc/pam.d/remote when compiled with PAM support and + executed with "-h <hostname>" option. The "-h" option is used by other + servers (i.e., telnetd(8)) to pass the name of the remote host to login. + +cal(1): + - determines the first day of week from the locale. + +libblkid, blkid(8) and findfs(8): + The libblkid library has been moved from e2fsprogs to util-linux-ng. The + library has been extended and now includes: + + - low-level probing API that is useful for example for udev rules + (cmdline: blkid -p -o udev <device>) + + - very high-level API that provides portable interface for LABELs and + UUIDs evaluation on 2.4, 2.6 and udev-based system. It's recommended + to use "blkid -L|-U" in your scripts rather than directly read + /dev/disk/by-* symlinks. + + - the old ABI and API is backwardly compatible with the current version + from e2fsprogs. + + All utils (mount, swapon, fsck, ...) in the package is possible to link + against this new library, or the old version from e2fsprogs, or + libvolume_id from udev package. + + The default is still libblkid from e2fsprogs. The new library could be + enabled by "--with-fsprobe=builtin" configure option. + + The libvolume_id from udev and vol_id command is deprecated now. + +fsck(8): + - has been moved to from e2fsprogs to util-linux-ng. + +dmesg(1) + - supports new command line option "-r" to print the raw message buffer + (i.e. don’t strip the log level prefixes). + +flock(1): + - allows lock directory + +fsck.cramfs: + - automatically detects the image endianness, and can work on images of + either endianness. + +mkfs.cramfs: + - now accepts a new optional parameter (-N) that allows creating + the cramfs image in either endianness. + +renice(1): + - supports new command line option "-n" for compatibility with POSIX + +hwclock(8) + - supports new command line option "--systz" to reset the System Time + based on the current timezone. Since the system clock time is already + set from the hardware clock by the kernel (when compiled with + CONFIG_RTC_HCTOSYS), there's no particular need to read the hardware + clock again. + +ionice(1): + - supports new command line option "-t" option to ignore failure to set + requested priority. This might be of use in case something (selinux, + old kernel, etc.) does not allow the requested scheduling priority + to be set. + + - the command line option "-p" handles multiple PIDs now. + +losetup(8): + - detaches more devices by "-d <loop> [<loop> ..]" + +ipcmk(1): + - this NEW COMMAND allows to create ad-hoc IPC resources. + +lscpu(1): + - this NEW COMMAND gathers CPU architecture information like number + of CPUs, threads, cores, sock, NUMA nodes, information about CPU + caches, information about hypervisor and virtualization support, + ..etc. and prints it in human-readable or parse-able format. + +namei(1): + -
