<listitem><para>Special filesystems, like <literal>/proc</literal>,
<literal>/run</literal> and others, now have the same mount options as
recommended by systemd. They are now unified across different places in NixOS.
Options are also updated on the system switch if possible. One benefit from
this is improved security -- most such filesystems are now mounted with
<literal>noexec</literal>, <literal>nodev</literal> and/or
<literal>nosuid</literal> options.</para></listitem>
