Entering freeze for libvirt-7.9.0
by Jiri Denemark
I have just tagged v7.9.0-rc1 in the repository and pushed signed
tarballs and source RPMs to https://libvirt.org/sources/
Please give the release candidate some testing and in case you find a
serious issue which should have a fix in the upcoming release, feel
free to reply to this thread to make sure the issue is more visible.
If you have not done so yet, please update NEWS.rst to document any
significant change you made since the last release.
Thanks,

signed tarballs and source RPMs are available at

* New features
* nodedev: Add ability to automatically start mediated devices
The autostart status of a persistent mediated devices can be managed with
the new APIs ``virNodeDeviceSetAutostart()`` and
``virNodeDeviceGetAutostart()``. The corresponding virsh command is
``nodedev-autostart``. In addition, two new APIs were added to get
additional information about node devices: ``virNodeDeviceIsPersistent()``
checks whether the device is persistently defined, and
``virNodeDeviceIsActive()`` checks whether the node device is currently
active. This information can also be retrieved with the new virsh command
``nodedev-info``.
Enjoy.
