There’s a fix for a kernel crash when unplugging Logitech USB receivers and various other changes regarding hung systems at shutdowns or reboots. This seems to affect various Lenovo, Sony, and Dell systems using Intel Alder Lake and Raptor Lake that were having problems at shutdown/reboot.

ArchWiki registration requires the output of the following command as a verification process:
pacman -V|base32|head -1

But what does this even mean? Let’s break it down.
(pacman -V)’s output is piped to base32, the result of which is processed by head.
pacman -V gives info about the current version of pacman
> pacman -V

Some of the new features are:
1) Block cloning support for allowing files or portions of files to be used for reflinks / file-level copy-on-write handling
2) Linux container support with various Linux-specific container interfaces now supported, support for OverlayFS, IDMAPPED mounts in a user name-space, and other features.
3) BLAKE3 check-summing that is much faster than SHA-256 and SHA-512.
4) Corrective “zfs receive” for healing corrupted data in file-systems
