+  - iocage inventory plugin - the new parameter ``hooks`` of the plugin is a list of files inside a jail that provide configuration parameters for the inventory. The inventory plugin reads the files from the jails and put the contents into the items of created variable ``iocage_hooks`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/9650, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/9651).
