- Unknown requirements in the ``requires`` keyword will now be treated
as unmet requirements, causing the rule to not be loaded. See
:ref:`keyword_requires`.
- The configuration setting controlling stream checksum checks no longer affects
checksum keyword validation. In Suricata 7.0, when ``stream.checksum-validation``
was set to ``no``, the checksum keywords (e.g., ``ipv4-csum``, ``tcpv4-csum``, etc)
will always consider it valid; e.g., ``tcpv4-csum: invalid`` will never match. In
Suricata 8.0, ``stream.checksum-validation`` no longer affects the checksum rule keywords.
E.g., ``ipv4-csum: valid`` will only match if the check sum is valid, even when engine
checksum validations are disabled.
