    Description:


    systemd and aaa_base have been updated to fix the following bugs:

    - Add path_id_compat for backwards compatibility with SLE11 (bsc#916420).

    - Do not watch for socket events when service is in SERVICE_STOP
    (bsc#918118)

    - Increase number of children/workers to CPU_COUNT * 64 to avoid 'maximum
    number of children reached' (bsc#907393).

    - udev: link_setup - respect kernel name assign policy (bsc#907318).

    - sync with patches from Base:System:Legacy (bsc#910315)

    - Remove superfluous set -x from systemd-sleep-grub (bsc#905550)

    - Make sure that quotacheck is executed after fsck for system root is
    finished (bsc#897799)

    - Add missed keyboard layouts which are offered by YaST2 (bsc#910643 and
    bsc#897803)

    - Due to fragmentation, journal flushes on btrfs could take very long
    (bsc#911347)

    - Fixed comparison of console log facility that caused journald to skip
    output to console (bsc#912030)

    - Add user based ignore statements in tmpfiles removal directives. This
    feature was previously implemented by scripts in aaa_base, which are
    being removed by this update. (bsc#903009)

    - Use --boot option in systemd-tmpfiles-setup-dev.service (bsc#908476)

    - udev: link_setup - respect kernel name assign policy (bsc#907318).

    - Avoid old net devices naming scheme on openSUSE 13.2 and less maybe
    caused by patch

    - Fix systemd-nspawn network-veth support (bsc#906709)

    - Change the maximum number of children from CPU_COUNT * 256 to CPU_COUNT
    * 64. (bsc#907393).

    - Re-add directory /usr/lib/systemd/system/basic.target.wants

    - Remove pm-utils-hooks-compat.sh again, pm-utils built-in hooks partially
    duplicate hooks run by systemd which may potentially lead to problems,
    instead temporarily re-enable
    Forward-suspend-hibernate-calls-to-pm-utils.patch until bsc#904828 can
    be addressed properly

    - Allow the use of --type in the systemctl command list-units and
    list-unit-files.

    - Create rule to set I/O scheduler to deadline if device attribute
    'rotational' equals 0, usually SSDs (bsc#904517).

    - Fix systemd-fstab-generator crypttab parsing (bsc#903963)

    - Add pm-utils-hooks-compat.sh in order to run pm-utils sleep hooks from
    systemd (bsc#904828)

    - Add patch watch_resolv.conf_for_become_changed.patch to add an inotify
    watch on /etc/resolv.conf which enables the reload of a changed resolver
    configuration on the fly (bsc#902901)

    - Add upstream patches which will be applied if patch is applied a this
    may fix the trouble with iSCSI (bsc#898233)

    - Add upstream patch 1089-fix-cgroup-device-controller.patch to avoid
    trouble on existing /dev/console with nspawn (bsc#902240)

    - Add patch to close file descriptors if an incomming connection can not
    be handled due e.g. short memory. Could be related to (bsc#901481)
