These are defined here: sigh - I forgot to mention what the change actually *was*. I guess it's obvious from context, but, for clarity: with systemd 241, these sysctls default to 1 (on). Previously they defaulted to 0 (off). I think this change, even if it was an upstream change, warrants a system-wide Change to Fedora 30. At the very least, it has to be prominently featured in the release notes. -- / Alexander Bokovoy Sr. Principal Software Engineer Security / Identity Management Engineering Red Hat Limited, Finland ___ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
