Where applicable, the API and CLI reference documentation has been updated to
reflect these features, but **full documentation for a given feature may not be
available until a Docker CE Stable release incorporates the feature**.

##### API and CLI
- Add `--device-cgroup-rule` flag to give containers access to devices that appear
after the container is started. {% include github-pr.md pr=22563 %}
- Allow swarm nodes to join with `--availability=drain` to prevent them from
taking non-manager workloads. {% include github-pr.md pr=24993 %}
- Add `publish` and `expose` filters to `docker ps`, so that containers can be
filtered by port or port range for TCP or UDP protocols {% include github-pr.md pr=27557 %}
- Add `--no-trunc` and `--format` flags to the `docker service ls` command, and
as well as the ability to specify the default format for `docker service ls`
using the `ServicesFormat` option to the Docker CLI. Also add a
`docker stack services` command. {% include github-pr.md pr=28199 %}
- Add ability to filter plugins by whether they are enabled or disabled in
`docker plugin ls` output. {% include github-pr.md pr=28627 %}
- Add `mode` option to `--log-opts` flag for both `docker` and `dockerd`. If set
to `non-blocking`, and the log buffer fills up, log messages will be lost, but
the container will not block. The `max-buffer-size` option controls the
maximum size of the ring buffer. Defaults to `blocking`, which will cause the
container to block if messages cannot be logged. See
[Options for all drivers](/engine/admin/logging/overview.md#options-for-all-drivers).
{% include github-pr.md pr=28762 %}
- It is no longer possible to inadvertently pull images on an architecture where
they will not run. {% include github-pr.md pr=29001 %}
- It is now possible to create AWS log groups when using the AWS logging driver.
See [`awslogs-create-group`](engine/admin/logging/awslogs.md#awslogs-create-group).
{% include github-pr.md pr=29504 %}
- Add the ability to filter `docker network ls` output by creation time, using
the `{% raw %}{{CreatedAt}}{% endraw %}` format specifier.
{% include github-pr.md pr=29900 %}
- Named but untagged images are now removed if you run `docker image prune` if
`--dangling-only` is set to `true`. {% include github-pr.md pr=30330 %}
- Add `--add-host` flag to `docker build`, which will add entries to the
`/etc/hosts` file of a container created from that image. The `/etc/hosts`
file is not saved within the image itself. {% include github-pr.md pr=30383 %}
- Prevent `docker network ls` from pulling all the endpoints, to reduce
impact on the network. {% include github-pr.md pr=30673 %}
- Windows-specific commands and options no longer show in command help text on
non-Windows clients. {% include github-pr.md pr=30780 %}
- When you specify an IP address when running `docker network connect`, the
IP address is now checked for validity. {% include github-pr.md pr=30807 %}
- Add the ability to customize bind-mount consistency to be more appropriate
for some platforms and workloads. Options are `consistent` (the default),
`cached`, or `delegated`. {% include github-pr.md pr=31047 %}
##### Daemon
- Docker Daemon logging settings no longer affect the `docker build` command.
{% include github-pr.md pr=29552 %}
- Add a `registry-mirrors` configuration option for the Docker daemon, which
replaces the daemon's registry mirrors with a new set of registry mirrors.
{% include github-pr.md pr=29650 %}
- Add the ability to specify the default shared memory size for the Docker
daemon, using the `--default-shm-size` or the `default-shm-size` key in
`daemon.json`. {% include github-pr.md pr=29692 %}
- Add a `no-new-privileges` configuration option for the Docker daemon, which
prevents unprivileged containers from gaining new privileges.
{% include github-pr.md pr=29984 %}
- If a Docker client communicates with an older daemon and attempts to perform
an operation not supported by the daemon, an error is printed, which shows
the API versions of both the client and daemon.
{% include github-pr.md pr=30187 %}
- The Docker daemon no longer depends upon `sqlite`. This change means that it
is not possible to upgrade the Docker daemon from version 1.9 directly to the
latest version. It is recommended to upgrade from one major version to the
next, in sequence. {% include github-pr.md pr=30208 %}
##### Dockerfile
- Using the pattern `**/` in a Dockerfile now (correctly) behaves the same as
`**`. {% include github-pr.md pr=29043 %}
- Time values less than 1 second are no longer allowed in health-check options
in the Dockerfile. {% include github-pr.md pr=31177 %}
##### Services
- When a service is updated with both `--secret-add` and `--secret-rm` in the
same operation, the order of operations is now changed so that the
`--secret-rm` always occurs first. {% include github-pr.md pr=29802 %}
- Add the ability to create or update a service to be read-only using the
`--read-only` flag. {% include github-pr.md pr=30162 %}
- Docker now updates swarm nodes if the swarm configuration is updated.
{% include github-pr.md pr=30259 %}
- Add topology-aware placement preferences for Swarm services. This feature
allows services to be balanced over nodes based on a particular user-defined
property, such as which datacenter or rack they are located in.
See [Control service scale and placement](/engine/swarm/services.md#control-service-scale-and-placement).
{% include github-pr.md pr=30725 %}
- Add the ability to customize the stop signal which will be sent to nodes, when
creating or updating a service. {% include github-pr.md pr=30754 %}
- Add the ability to address a secret by name or prefix, as well as ID, when
updating it. {% include github-pr.md pr=30856 %}
- Add the ability to roll back to a previous version of a service if an
updated service fails to deploy. Several flags are available at service
creation or update,to control the rollback action, failure threshold,
monitoring delay, rollback delay, and parallelism.
{% include github-pr.md pr=31108 %}
- Add the ability to specify the stream when using the Docker service logs API.
{% include github-pr.md pr=31313 %}
- Add `--tail` and `--since` flags to `docker service logs` command, to filter
the logs by time or to show the tail of the logs and show new content as it
is logged. {% include github-pr.md pr=31500 %}
- Add a `--verbose` flag to the `docker inspect` command. For swarm networks,
this flag shows all nodes and services attached to the network.
{% include github-pr.md pr=31710 %}
##### Stacks
- Compose file version 3.2 is now supported. This includes support for different
types of endpoints and expands the options you can use when specifying mounts.
{% include github-pr.md pr=31795 %}
