* **Secure Storage Subsystem**:
A newly introduced :ref:`secure storage<secure_storage>` subsystem allows the use of the
PSA Secure Storage API and of persistent keys in the PSA Crypto API on *all* board targets. It
is now the standard way to provide device-specific protection to data at rest. (:github:`76222`)
* The introduction of the :ref:`comparator<comparator_api>` device driver subsystem for analog
comparators, complete with shell support. It supports initial configuration through devicetree
and runtime configuration through vendor specific APIs. Initially the
:dtcompatible:`nordic,nrf-comp`, :dtcompatible:`nordic,nrf-lpcomp` and
:dtcompatible:`nxp,kinetis-acmp` are supported.
* **ZMS (Zephyr Memory Storage) Subsystem**:
:ref:`ZMS <zms_api>` is a new key-value storage subsystem compatible with all non-volatile storage
types, including traditional NOR flash and advanced technologies like RRAM and MRAM that support
write without erasure.
* The introduction of the :ref:`stepper<stepper_api>` device driver subsystem for stepper motors,
complete with shell support. Initially implemented drivers include a simple
:dtcompatible:`zephyr,gpio-stepper` and a complex sensor-less stall-detection capable with
