## Release Notes
**Version 1.2.0**
This version fixes a number of bugs and issues and adds new functions and other
improvements. These include:
*New restart policies*
We added a `--restart flag` to `docker run` to specify a restart policy for your
container. Currently, there are three policies available:
`no` – Do not restart the container if it dies. (default)
`on-failure` – Restart the container if it exits with a non-zero exit code.
This can also accept an optional maximum restart count (e.g. `on-failure:5`).
`always` – Always restart the container no matter what exit code is returned.
This deprecates the `--restart` flag on the Docker daemon.
*New flags for `docker run`: `--cap-add` and `–-cap-drop`*
In previous releases, Docker containers could either be given complete capabilities or
they could all follow a whitelist of allowed capabilities while dropping all others.
Further, using `--privileged` would grant all capabilities inside a container, rather than
applying a whitelist. This was not recommended for production use because it’s really
unsafe; it’s as if you were directly in the host.
This release introduces two new flags for `docker run` --cap-add and --cap-drop that give
you fine grain control over the specific capabilities you want grant to a particular
container.
*New `-–device` flag for `docker run`*
Previously, you could only use devices inside your containers by bind mounting them ( with
`-v`) in a `--privileged` container. With this release, we introduce the `--device flag`
to `docker run` which lets you use a device without requiring a privileged container.
*Writable `/etc/hosts`, `/etc/hostname` and `/etc/resolv.conf`*
You can now edit `/etc/hosts`, `/etc/hostname` and `/etc/resolve.conf` in a running
container. This is useful if you need to install bind or other services that might
override one of those files.
Note, however, that changes to these files are not saved during a docker build and so will
not be preserved in the resulting image. The changes will only “stick” in a running
container.
*Docker proxy in a separate process*
The Docker userland proxy that routes outbound traffic to your containers now has its own
separate process (one process per connection). This greatly reduces the load on the
daemon, which increases stability and efficiency.
*Other Improvements & Changes*
* When using `docker rm -f`, Docker now kills the container (instead of stopping it) before removing it . If you intend to stop the container cleanly, you can use `docker stop`.
* Added support for IPv6 addresses in `--dns`
* Added search capability in private registries
