This is the best summary I could come up with:
Systemd 255 even is introducing systemd-bsod as a “Blue Screen of Death” for displaying important error messages during boot failure, systemd-vmspawn as a new tool to spawn virtual machines, and other new features.
It’s not an off-timed April Fool’s prank or anything, there is finally a systemd-bsod service for “Blue Screen of Death” full-screen error messages on Linux…
-
Systemd’s bootctl will now show whether the system was booted from a Unified Kernel Image (UKI).
-
systemctl will now automatically soft-reboot into a new root file-system if found under /run/nextroot/ when a reboot operation is invoked.
-
A new option “SurveFinalKillSignal” has been added to skip the final SIGTERM/SIGKILL spree on shutdown in order to survive soft-reboot operation.
-
A new “ConditionSecurity=measured-uki” option for only running when the system has been booted via a measured Unified Kernel Image (UKI).
