Release of libvirt-7.10.0
by Jiri Denemark
The 7.10.0 release of both libvirt and libvirt-python is tagged and
signed tarballs and source RPMs are available at
https://libvirt.org/sources/
https://libvirt.org/sources/python/
Thanks everybody who helped with this release by sending patches,
reviewing, testing, or providing feedback. Your work is greatly
appreciated.
* New features
* Added virt-pki-query-dn binary
This binary helps users figure out the format of Distinguished Name
from a certificate file the way that libvirt expects it in
tls_allowed_dn_list option of libvirtd.conf configuration file
* Improvements
* qemu: Report guest interface information in ``virDomainGetGuestInfo``
Libvirt is now able to report interface information from the guest's
perspective (using guest agent).
* qemu: detect guest side errors during device removal
Libvirt is now able to detect guest side errors during device removal by
using the DEVICE_UNPLUG_GUEST_ERROR event, available in QEMU 6.2.0.
* Minimum SSF setting
The libvirtd.conf option tcp_min_ssf can be used to override the minimum
permitted security strength factor for non-TLS remote connections.
The current hardcoded minimum is 56 (single-DES) and will be raised to 112
in the future. Setting a minimum lower than 112 is not supported.
* qemu: Report stats also for block copy destination and backup job scratch
images
The statistics are available via the bulk domain stats API.
* Bug fixes
* qemu: Don't format 'ramfb' attribute when disabled
Fix a regression caused by the conversion to JSON -device arguments where
'ramfb' would be put on the commandline of 'vfio-pci' which doesn't have it,
thus breaking VMs with a mediated host device.
* qemu: Fix block copy and backup to encrypted storage
An oversight in last release lead to a spurious error being reported when
encrypted storage was requested for disk images which are not directly
backing the disk, which is now fixed.
Enjoy.
