1.3       benno      90:        <li>Added support in the kernel and libc for timecounting in
                     91:        userland, eliminating the need for a context switch everytime a
                     92:        process requests the current time, thereby improving speed and
                     93:        responsiveness in programs which make many <a

                    517: of disabling particular features. These include resident keys, PIN-

                    522: data needed to validate attestation signatures.
                    523:        <li>The API between OpenSSH and the FIDO token middleware has
                    524: changed and the SSH_SK_VERSION_MAJOR version has been incremented as a
                    525: result. Third-party middleware libraries must support the current API
                    526: version (7) to work with OpenSSH 8.4.

                    538: When a PIN-required key is used, the user will be prompted for a PIN

                    544: multiple methods for user-verification, but currently OpenSSH only

                    549: for using FIDO keys in web browsers. These signatures are a slightly
                    550: different format to plain FIDO signatures and thus require explicit
                    551: support.

                    571:        <li><a href="https://man.openbsd.org/ssh">ssh(1)</a>: add a '%k'
