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
