The default is "private" now. The +new default unifies unshare behavior and makes it independent of distribution +default. The unshare supports persistent namespaces too (no process has to run +to keep namespace in existence). + +The command mount(8) supports read-only binds in one step by the options +"bind,ro" (command line or fstab). This feature is implemented by additional +remount mount(2) syscall and it is not atomic. + +The commands fdisk and sfdisk can be compiled with GNU readline support to +improve their line-editing functionality. + +The library libsmartcols and the commands findmnt, losetup, lsblk, lslocks, +sfdisk and lsipc provide output in JSON format. + +The command mkfs (deprecated in favour of mkfs.<type>) does not use hard-coded +paths, but it follows $PATH. + +The command script has been massively improved to be more robust and less +complex. Now all is implemented by one process which monitors the running +session by poll(), signalfd(), etc. + +The command sulogin supports locked root accounts if the command-line option +--force is specified. Read the sulogin man page before you use it! + +The command agetty reloads the prompt on address changes if network information +is displayed. + +util-linux now supports and enables colors by default. It is possible to change +this behavior with --disable-colors-default to be more user-friendly to colorblind +people. The colors can still be enabled by editing /etc/terminal-colors.d. See +terminal-colors.d(5). + +The command cfdisk displays more information about the selected partition +(partition UUID, filesystem identifiers, mountpoint, etc.). This extra window +can be toggled with the 'x' key. + +The command fdisk provides a new command 'F' to print free, unpartitioned space +(gaps) on the disk. The same functionality is provided by sfdisk through the +option --list-free. The fdisk command wipes the beginning of the device by +default; the new option --protect-boot disables this behavior. The new fdisk +command 'i' provides more information about a specified partition. + +The command cal supports the new options --twelve and --months <n> to display +the next twelve or <n> months. + +The command rtcwake supports a new option --list-modes to list available modes, +and a new option --date for human-readable times. rtcwake does not support +RTC_ALM_READ and RTC_ALM_SET fallbacks any more. + +The util-linux code is possible rebuild with --disable-assert now. + + +Security issues +--------------- + +CVE-2015-5224 -
