Six years ago we declared it obsolete and removed it from the docs
(c073a0c4a5) and added a note about it in
NEWS. Two years ago we add warning messages about it, indicating the
feature will be removed (41b283d0f1) and
mentioned it in NEWS again.
Let's now kill it for good.
Based on an internal discussion whether emergency.target should remount disks
ro, or maybe remount them rw, or do nothing. In some cases people want to boot
ro, and always remounting rw would break that. In other cases, remounting disks
ro after they have already been mounted rw is mostly pointless and might even
not be possible. So let's just document that we don't change the state.
Also: any→other, since emergency.service *is* pulled in.
Also: just advertise "emergency" as the way to boot into the target.
We are not going to remove this option, and it's way easier to type than
"systemd.unit=emergency.target".
In DHCPv6-PD environment, where WAN interface requests IPv6 via DHCPv6,
receives the address as well as delegated prefixes, with LAN interfaces
serving those delegated prefixes in their router advertisement messages.
The LAN interfaces on the router themselves do not have
the IPv6 addresses assigned by networkd from the prefix it
serves on that interface. Now this patch enables it.
Clean up the naming of the sd-path enums. Previously, the more recently
added fields where named in the form SD_PATH_xyz_DIR and
SD_PATH_xyz_PATH, while the older fields where called just SD_PATH_xyz
and SD_PATH_SEARCH_xyz. Let's clean this up, to come to a more unified
way how we name this stuff.
I opted to stick to the old naming, i.e. dropthe suffixes. It's a bit of
a bike-shedding question of course, but I think there's a good reason to
avoid the additional DIR and PATH suffixes: the enum prefix contains
"PATH" anyway (i.e. "SD_PATH_"), so including PATH twice in each name is
redundant. Moreover, the key difference between the enums with the "dir"
and the "path" in the name is that the latter are *seach* paths, and I
think this is better emphasized by sticking to the "SEARCH" in the name.
Moreover dropping the suffixes makes the identifiers a lot shorter, in
particular in the "systemd-path" list output. And that's always good.
This means the naming pkgconfig file and in sd-path slightly deviate
(though the mapping is very simple), but I think that's OK, given that
this is developer facing and not user facing.
This generator can be used by desktop environments to launch autostart
applications and services. The feature is an opt-in, triggered by
xdg-desktop-autostart.target being activated.
Also included is the new binary xdg-autostart-condition. This binary is
used as an ExecCondition to test the OnlyShowIn and NotShowIn XDG
desktop file keys. These need to be evaluated against the
XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP environment variable which may not be known at
generation time.

It doesn't make much sense to have ConfigureWithoutCarrier set, but not
IgnoreCarrierLoss; all the configuration added during initial interface
bring-up will be lost at the first carrier up/down.
This allows users to configure a subnet id that should be used instead
of automatically (sequentially) assigned subnets. The previous attempt
had the downside that the subnet id would not be the same between
networkd restarts. In some setups it is desirable to have predictable
subnet ids across restarts of services and systems.
The code for the assignment had to be broken up into two pieces. One of
them is the old (sequential) assignment of prefixes and the other is the
new assignment based on configured subnet ids. The new assignment code
has to be executed first and has to be taken into account when (later
on) allocating the "old" subnets from the same pool.
Instead of having one iteration through the links we are now trying to
allocate a prefix for every link on every delegated prefix, unless they
received an assignment in a previous iteration.
