+Util-linux 2.30 Release Notes
+=============================
+
+The libblkid library has been improved for hybrid CDROM/DVD media by extracting
+the LABEL and UUID values from the UDF header, rather than the ISO9660 header.
+This change makes hybrid CDROM/DVD media created on other operating systems more
+compatible in Linux user-space. Unfortunately, this change may introduce a
+regression for (unusual) hybrid CDROM/DVDs where the ISO and UDF headers use a
+different LABEL.
+
+The deprecated command tailf has been removed. Use "tail -f" from coreutils.
+
+blkzone -- NEW COMMAND to run zone commands on block devices that support Zoned
+Block Commands (ZBC) or Zoned-device ATA Commands (ZAC). The currently
+supported functionality is 'report' and 'reset'.
+[thanks to Shaun Tancheff (Seagate), Damien Le Moal (WD)]
+
+fincore -- NEW COMMAND to count pages of file contents in core (memory).
+[thanks to Masatake YAMATO (Red Hat)]
+
+lsmem -- NEW COMMAND to list the ranges of available memory with their online
+status (originally implemented in Perl for s390-tools). [thanks to Clemens von Mann
+and Heiko Carstens (IBM)]
+
+chmem -- NEW COMMAND to set memory online/offline status [thanks to Heiko
+Carstens (IBM)]
+
+Removed Alpha and dead code from hwclock's --directisa option.
+
+The command fallocate supports an "insert range" operation now.
+
+The command "column -t|--table" has been modified to use libsmartcols. It now
+provides nearly all of that library's functionality from the command line. For
+example: printing a table header, reordering columns, aligning columns
+to the right, printing tree-like output, wrapping lines in cells, truncating
+text in cells, etc.
+
+The libmount library now provides an API to generate exit codes and error/warning
+messages compatible with mount(8).
+
+
+Security issues
+---------------
+
+hwclock - no longer makes any internal permission checks. The System
+ Administrator must set proper permissions to control user access to
+ the RTC. It is NOT recommended to use set-user-ID.
+
+CVE-2016-2779 - This security issue is NOT FIXED yet. It is possible to
+ disable the ioctl TIOCSTI by setsid() only. Unfortunately, setsid()
+ has well-defined use cases in su(1) and runuser(1) and any changes
+ would introduce regressions. It seems we need a better way -- ideally
+ another ioctl to disable TIOCSTI without setsid() or in a userspace
+ implemented pty container (planned as experimental su(1) feature).
