  • The length of the key depends on the type of encryption; see the description of the -t option.
  • The write-key command has been discontinued.
io-audio
  • The status_accuracy option isn't available as a key in the [GLOBAL] section of the audio configuration file.
  • You can now pass configuration options from a file using a driver-specific configuration file when you dynamically load a driver. We've documented a new config option, how the unit option has been extended to specify a [CTRL] section to use, and how to use the driver-specific configuration file.
io-blk.so
The value of the naming option can now include a third character that governs the naming of GPT partitions.
shutdown
After sending a SIGTERM signal to a process, this utility sends a SIGCONT signal, in case the process had earlier been stopped.

  • In order for you to tag files for migration, the source and destination domains must be unlocked.
  • A domain doesn't have to be unlocked for you to delete it.

  • You must use the -t option to specify the type of encryption when you use the change-key, check-key, and unlock commands.
  • You can specify a domain of 0 (using the -d option) to remove encryption.
  • If you assign a domain to a directory or empty file, the domain replaces any domain previously assigned to the path.
io-audio
We've documented the sw_mixer_limiter key int the [CTRL] section of the audio configuration file.
