**IMPORTANT**: Docker 1.12 ships with an updated systemd unit file for rpm
based installs (which includes RHEL, Fedora, CentOS, and Oracle Linux 7). When
upgrading from an older version of docker, the upgrade process may not
automatically install the updated version of the unit file, or fail to start
the docker service if;
- the systemd unit file (`/usr/lib/systemd/system/docker.service`) contains local changes, or
- a systemd drop-in file is present, and contains `-H fd://` in the `ExecStart` directive
Starting the docker service will produce an error:
Failed to start docker.service: Unit docker.socket failed to load: No such file or directory.
or
no sockets found via socket activation: make sure the service was started by systemd.
To resolve this:
- Backup the current version of the unit file, and replace the file with the
[version that ships with docker 1.12](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/docker/docker/v1.12.0/contrib/init/systemd/docker.service.rpm)
- Remove the `Requires=docker.socket` directive from the `/usr/lib/systemd/system/docker.service` file if present
- Remove `-H fd://` from the `ExecStart` directive (both in the main unit file, and in any drop-in files present).
After making those changes, run `sudo systemctl daemon-reload`, and `sudo
systemctl restart docker` to reload changes and (re)start the docker daemon.

+ Docker can now prevent processes in container to gain new privileges via the `--security-opt=no-new-privileges` flag ([#20727](https://github.com/docker/docker/pull/20727))
- Starting a container with the `--device` option will now correctly resolves symlinks ([#20684](https://github.com/docker/docker/pull/20684))
+ Docker now relies on [`containerd`](https://github.com/docker/containerd) and [`runc`](https://github.com/opencontainers/runc) to spawn containers. ([#20662](https://github.com/docker/docker/pull/20662))
- Fix docker configuration reloading to only alter value present in the given config file ([#20604](https://github.com/docker/docker/pull/20604))

*`docker update` learned how to change a container restart policy ([#19116](https://github.com/docker/docker/pull/19116))
*`docker inspect` now also returns a new `State` field containing the container state in a human readable way (i.e. one of `created`, `restarting`, `running`, `paused`, `exited` or `dead`)([#18966](https://github.com/docker/docker/pull/18966))
+ Docker learned to limit the number of active pids (i.e. processes) within the container via the `pids-limit` flags. NOTE: This requires `CGROUP_PIDS=y` to be in the kernel configuration. ([#18697](https://github.com/docker/docker/pull/18697))
* Object with the `pcp_pmcd_t` selinux type were given management access to `/var/lib/docker(/.*)?` ([#21370](https://github.com/docker/docker/pull/21370))
*`restart_syscall`, `copy_file_range`, `mlock2` joined the list of allowed calls in the default seccomp profile ([#21117](https://github.com/docker/docker/pull/21117), [#21262](https://github.com/docker/docker/pull/21262))
*`send`, `recv` and `x32` were added to the list of allowed syscalls and arch in the default seccomp profile ([#19432](https://github.com/docker/docker/pull/19432))
+ `docker run -v` now accepts a new flag `nocopy`. This tells the runtime not to copy the container path content into the volume (which is the default behavior) ([#21223](https://github.com/docker/docker/pull/21223))

* New types of event can be streamed by the `events` endpoint: ‘OOM’ (container died with out of memory), ‘exec_create’, and ‘exec_start'
- Fixed returned string fields which hold numeric characters incorrectly omitting surrounding double quotes
#### Runtime
+ Docker daemon has full IPv6 support
+ The `docker run` command can take the `--pid=host` flag to use the host PID namespace, which makes it possible for example to debug host processes using containerized debugging tools
+ The `docker run` command can take the `--read-only` flag to make the container’s root filesystem mounted as readonly, which can be used in combination with volumes to force a container’s processes to only write to locations that will be persisted
* New `COPY` Dockerfile instruction to allow copying a local file from the context into the container without ever extracting if the file is a tar file

* Images and containers can be removed much faster
* Building an image from source with docker build is now much faster
* The Docker daemon starts and stops much faster
* The memory footprint of many common operations has been reduced, by streaming files instead of buffering them in memory, fixing memory leaks, and fixing various suboptimal memory allocations
* Several race conditions were fixed, making Docker more stable under very high concurrency load. This makes Docker more stable and less likely to crash and reduces the memory footprint of many common operations
* All packaging operations are now built on the Go language’s standard tar implementation, which is bundled with Docker itself. This makes packaging more portable across host distributions, and solves several issues caused by quirks and incompatibilities between different distributions of tar
* Docker can now create, remove and modify larger numbers of containers and images graciously thanks to more aggressive releasing of system resources. For example the storage driver API now allows Docker to do reference counting on mounts created by the drivers
With the ongoing changes to the networking and execution subsystems of docker testing these areas have been a focus of the refactoring. By moving these subsystems into separate packages we can test, analyze, and monitor coverage and quality of these packages
* Many components have been separated into smaller sub-packages, each with a dedicated test suite. As a result the code is better-tested, more readable and easier to change
* The ADD instruction now supports caching, which avoids unnecessarily re-uploading the same source content again and again when it hasn’t changed
* The new ONBUILD instruction adds to your image a “trigger” instruction to be executed at a later time, when the image is used as the base for another build
* Docker now ships with an experimental storage driver which uses the BTRFS filesystem for copy-on-write
+ Update ADD to use the image cache, based on a hash of the added content
* Add error message for empty Dockerfile

* Update layer application to extract tars in place, avoiding file churn while handling whiteouts
- Fix permissiveness of mtime comparisons in tar handling (since GNU tar and Go tar do not yet support sub-second mtime precision)
* Reimplement `docker top` in pure Go to work more consistently, and even inside Docker-in-Docker (thus removing the shell injection vulnerability present in some versions of `lxc-ps`)
+ Update `-H unix://` to work similarly to `-H tcp://` by inserting the default values for missing portions
- Fix more edge cases regarding dockerinit and deleted or replaced docker or dockerinit files
* Update container name validation to include '.'
- Fix use of a symlink or non-absolute path as the argument to `-g` to work as expected
* Update to handle external mounts outside of LXC, fixing many small mounting quirks and making future execution backends and other features simpler
* Update to use proper box-drawing characters everywhere in `docker images -tree`
* Move MTU setting from LXC configuration to directly use netlink
* Add `-S` option to external tar invocation for more efficient spare file handling
+ Add arch/os info to User-Agent string, especially for registry requests
+ Add `-mtu` option to Docker daemon for configuring MTU
- Fix `docker build` to exit with a non-zero exit code on error
+ Add `DOCKER_HOST` environment variable to configure the client `-H` flag without specifying it manually for every invocation
+ Builder: New build operation ENTRYPOINT adds an executable entry point to the container. - Runtime: Fix a bug which caused 'docker run -d' to no longer print the container ID.
