This release includes small fixes and moving code to make it more
reliable and smaller. It's particularly important for use with systemd
217 since it adds a feature to static-nodes that is required by this
version of systemd.
- Bug fixes:
- Fix missing CLOEXEC in library
- Fix error message while opening kmod's index
- New features:
- Add kmod(8) man page
- Allow to build with libc's without be32toh()
- Move code around separating common code and data structures into a
shared directory. This allows to share more code between library and
tools, making the binary size of tools smaller.
- Clarify tools vs library licenses
- static-nodes: when writing in tmpfiles format, indicate that
creation of static nodes should only happen at boot. This is used and
required by systemd-217+.
- Improvements to testsuite:
- Add tests for newly created shared/ code
- Improve how tests are declared so there's less boilerplate code for
each test.
