Entering freeze for libvirt-9.8.0
by Jiri Denemark
I have just tagged v9.8.0-rc1 in the repository and pushed signed
tarballs and source RPMs to https://download.libvirt.org/
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,

Release of libvirt-9.7.0
by Jiri Denemark
The 9.7.0 release of both libvirt and libvirt-python is tagged and
signed tarballs and source RPMs are available at
https://download.libvirt.org/
https://download.libvirt.org/python/
Thanks everybody who helped with this release by sending patches,
reviewing, testing, or providing feedback. Your work is greatly
appreciated.
* New features
* qemu: basic support for use of "VFIO variant" drivers
A VFIO variant driver is a device-specific driver that can
be used in place of the generic vfio-pci driver, and provides
extra functionality to support things like live migration of
guests with vfio-assigned devices. It can currently be used by:
1) setting ``managed='no'`` in the XML configuration for the device
2) pre-binding the variant driver using the ``--driver`` option of
``virsh nodedev-detach``.
* Bug fixes
* qemu: Various fixes to firmware selection
The changes made to firmware selection in libvirt 9.2.0 have unfortunately
introduced a number of regressions. All known issues in this area have now
been resolved.
Enjoy.
