The systemd-dissect tool and - the util-linux losetup command now supports a complementing new - switch --loop-ref= for selecting the string. This means a loopback - block device may now be allocated under a caller-chosen reference and - can subsequently be referenced by that without first having to look - up the block device name the caller ended up with. - - * udev also creates symlinks to loopback block devices in the - /dev/loop/by-ref/ directory based on the .st_dev/st_ino fields of the - inode attached to the loopback block device. This means that attaching - a file to a loopback device will implicitly make a handle available to - be found via that file's inode information. - * udev gained a new tool "iocost" that can be used to configure QoS IO cost data based on hwdb information onto suitable block devices.
