@ -15,6 +15,10 @@ v10.6.0 (unreleased)
* **Removed features**
* qemu: Require QEMU-5.2.0 or newer
The minimal required version of QEMU was bumped to 5.2.0.
* **New features**
* qemu: Add support for the 'pauth' Arm CPU feature
@ -28,8 +32,38 @@ v10.6.0 (unreleased)
* **Improvements**
* qemu: Set 'passt' net backend if 'default' is unsupported
If QEMU is compiled without SLIRP support, and if domain XML allows it,
starting from this release libvirt will use passt as the default backend
instead. Also, supported backends are now reported in the domain
capabilities XML.
* qemu: add a monitor to /proc/$pid when killing times out
In cases when a QEMU process takes longer to be killed, libvirt might have
skipped cleaning up after it. But now a /proc/$pid watch is installed so
this does not happen ever again.
* **Bug fixes**
* virt-aa-helper: Allow RO access to /usr/share/edk2-ovmf
When binary version of edk2 is distributed, the files reside under
/usr/share/edk2-ovmf. Allow virt-aa-helper to generate paths under that
directory.
* virt-host-validate: Allow longer list of CPU flags
During its run, virt-host-validate parses /proc/cpuinfo to learn about CPU
flags. But due to a bug it parsed only the first 1024 bytes worth of CPU
flags leading to unexpected results. The file is now parsed properly.
* capabilities: Be more forgiving when decoding OEM strings
On some systems, OEM strings are scattered in multiple sections. This
confused libvirt when generating capabilities XML. Not anymore.
