+### Deprecated ###
+- The `libcontainer/configs.Mount.Relabel` configuration field (used to relabel
+  mounts with the `z` and `Z` "pseudo" mount options) was never accessible
+  outside of the libcontainer API, and in practice the relabel logic has always

+  will be removed entirely in runc 1.7. (#5152, #5160)
 
 ### Removed ###
 - The `memfd-bind` helper binary has been removed, as it has never been
   particularly useful and was completely obsoleted by the changes to
   `/proc/self/exe` sealing we introduced in runc [1.2.0][]. (#5141)

+- User-namespaced containers can now configure `user.*` sysctls. (#4889)

   libpathrs (by building without the `libpathrs` build tag), but we currently

+- `runc exec` will now request systemd to move the `exec` process into the
+  container cgroup, making the procedure more rootless-friendly. (#4822)
+- seccomp: minor documentation updates. (#4902)
+- Errors from `runc init` have historically been quite painful to understand
