     In #OracleSolaris 11.4.75, the zfs mount and unmount subcommands now support a new -r option to recursively mount or unmount a specified #ZFS filesystem tree - for instance "zfs unmount -r /export/home" to unmount all home directories. Both commands also now take multiple arguments to mount or unmount, whether or not -r is specified.

     @alanc Heh, wanted to check the whole changelog out of curiosity and seems broken: https://web.archive.org/web/20241126180312/https://blogs.oracle.com/solaris/post/announcing-oracle-solaris-114-sru75

     @lanodan heh, though even when everything's working, the way the Oracle blog pages load the content through Javascript doesn't seem to play well with the Wayback Machine. Hopefully things improve next year when they migrate the blog site to a new backend.

     The pgrep and pkill commands in #OracleSolaris 11.4.75 also grew two new options for selecting which processes to match:
     -r pidlist limits matches to processes with the listed pids at the root of their process trees.
     -Z (capital Z) limits matches to processes in the same zone (i.e. also in the global zone, since only in the global zone can you see processes from other zones).

     pinskia repeated this.

     #OracleSolaris 11.4.75 adds GCC 14 to the set of available packages. Users of the C and C++ compilers may notice that GCC 14 has raised a number of issues from warnings to errors, which may impact your builds. See https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-14/changes.html for more information on the changes in this generation of the GNU family of compilers, and https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-14/porting_to.html for information on changes you may need to make to code and/or compiler flags in order to build it with GCC 14.
