+Util-linux 2.19 Release Notes (10-Feb-2011)
+===========================================
+
+The util-linux-ng project has been renamed back to util-linux.
+
+Release highlights
+------------------
+
+lsblk(8):
+ - this NEW COMMAND lists information about all or selected block devices in
+ tree-like format.
+
+partx(8):
+ - this command has been rewritten to use libblkid for partition tables
+ parsing. It supports aix, bsd, dos, gpt, mac, minix, sgi, solaris_x86, sun,
+ ultrix and unixware now.
+
+ - supports new command line option "--show" to list partitions in new format
+
+ - prints UUID and name for GPT and mac partitions
+
+findmnt(8):
+ - supports new command line option "--submounts" to list all submounts for
+ selected mountpoint(s)
+
+agetty(8):
+ - supports new command line options "-c" and "-s" to reuse already initialized
+ tty cflags and existing baud rate
+
+mount(8), umount(8):
+ - could be linked with libmount (--enable-libmount-mount) to manage userspace
+ mount options outside /etc/mtab on systems where the file is a symlink to
+ /proc/mounts. (EXPERIMENTAL)
+
+losetup(8), mount(8):
+ - uses /sys/dev/block/<device>/loop/backing_file rather than loopdev ioctls
+ (requires kernel >= 2.6.37)
+
+fsck(8):
+ - supports new command line option "-l" to lock whole-disk device by
+ exclusive flock(2). This option is recommended when more fsck(8) instances
+ are executed in the same time.
+
+rtcwake(8):
+ - supports new mode "show" to print the current RTC alarm time
+
+fstrim(8):
+ - this NEW COMMAND allows to discard unused blocks on a mounted filesystem
+ (wrapper for FITRIM ioctl)
+
+swapon(8):
+ - supports new options "discard" and "nofail"
+
+blkid(8):
+ - low-level probing (-p) returns "8" exit code for ambivalent probing results
+
+libmount:
+ - include file has been renamed from mount/mount.h to libmount/libmount.h
+
+
