[Libvirt-announce] Entering freeze for libvirt-1.2.18

by Daniel Veillard

As planned and after pushing the small fix for the 'make dist' issue I have tagged in git the candidate release 1 and pushed signed tarballs and rpms to the usual place: ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/ Seems to work so far for me, please give it a try ! I think I will push rc2 on Wed or Thu and have the release over next week-end, Play with it, thanks !

[Libvirt-announce] ANNOUNCE: libvirt-glib version 0.2.2 released

by Daniel P. Berrange

I am pleased to announce that a new release of the libvirt-glib package, version 0.2.2, is now available from ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/glib/ The packages are GPG signed with Key fingerprint: DAF3 A6FD B26B 6291 2D0E 8E3F BE86 EBB4 1510 4FDF (4096R) Changes in this release: - Add API for getting interface MAC address - Simplify implementation of object listing APIs - Fix memory leaks of virConnect objects - Port to use GTask instead of GSimpleAsyncResult - Add API to get list of physical network interfaces - Add API to get list of virtual networks - Add API to get DHCP address of virtual networks - Avoid overwriting filesystem type when setting format - Include XML data for tests in dist - Add support for UNIX chardev sources - Fix test linking on platforms with strict linker deps - Add ability to set video ram + vgamem libvirt-glib comprises three distinct libraries: - libvirt-glib - Integrate with the GLib event loop and error handling - libvirt-gconfig - Representation of libvirt XML documents as GObjects - libvirt-gobject - Mapping of libvirt APIs into the GObject type system NB: While libvirt aims to be API/ABI stable forever, with libvirt-glib we are not currently guaranteeing that libvirt-glib libraries are permanently API/ABI stable. That said we do not expect to break the API/ABI for the forseeable future and will always strive avoid it. Follow up comments about libvirt-glib should be directed to the regular libvir-list(a)redhat.com development list. Thanks to all the people involved in contributing to this release.

[Libvirt-announce] ANNOUNCE: libvirt-sandbox "Dashti Margo" release 0.6.0

by Daniel P. Berrange

I pleased to announce the a new public release of libvirt-sandbox, version 0.6.0, is now available for download ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/sandbox/ The packages are GPG signed with Key fingerprint: DAF3 A6FD B26B 6291 2D0E 8E3F BE86 EBB4 1510 4FDF (4096R) The libvirt-sandbox package provides an API layer on top of libvirt-gobject which facilitates the cration of application sandboxes using virtualization technology. An application sandbox is a virtual machine or container that runs a single application binary, directly from the host OS filesystem. In other words there is no separate guest operating system install to build or manager. At this point in time libvirt-sandbox can create sandboxes using either LXC or KVM, and should in theory be extendable to any libvirt driver. This release contains a mixture of new features and bug fixes - API/ABI in-compatible change, soname increased - Prevent use of virt-sandbox-service as non-root upfront - Fix misc memory leaks - Block SIGHUP from the dhclient binary to prevent accidental death if the controlling terminal is closed & reopened - Add support for re-creating libvirt XML from sandbox config to facilitate upgrades - Switch to standard gobject introspection autoconf macros - Add ability to set filters on network interfaces - Search /usr/lib instead of /lib for systemd unit files, as the former is the canonical location even when / and /usr are merged - Only set SELinux labels on hosts that support SELinux - Explicitly link to selinux, instead of relying on indirect linkage - Update compiler warning flags - Fix misc docs comments - Don't assume use of SELinux in virt-sandbox-service - Fix path checks for SUSUE in virt-sandbox-service - Add support for AppArmour profiles - Mount /var after other FS to ensure host image is available - Ensure state/config dirs can be accessed when QEMU is running non-root for qemu:///system - Fix mounting of host images in QEMU sandboxes - Mount images as ext4 instead of ext3 - Allow use of non-raw disk images as filesystem mounts - Check if required static libs are available at configure time to prevent silent fallback to shared linking - Require libvirt-glib >= 0.2.1 - Add support for loading lzma and gzip compressed kmods - Check for support libvirt URIs when starting guests to ensure clear error message upfront - Add LIBVIRT_SANDBOX_INIT_DEBUG env variable to allow debugging of kernel boot messages and sandbox init process setup - Add support for exposing block devices to sandboxes with a predictable name under /dev/disk/by-tag/TAGNAME - Use devtmpfs instead of tmpfs for auto-populating /dev in QEMU sandboxes - Allow setup of sandbox with custom root filesystem instead of inheriting from host's root. - Allow execution of apps from non-matched ld-linux.so / libc.so, eg executing F19 binaries on F22 host - Use passthrough mode for all QEMU filesystems Thanks to everyone who contributed to this release Regards, Daniel -- |: http://berrange.com -o- http://www.flickr.com/photos/dberrange/ :| |: http://libvirt.org -o- http://virt-manager.org :| |: http://autobuild.org -o- http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ :| |: http://entangle-photo.org -o- http://live.gnome.org/gtk-vnc :|

[Libvirt-announce] Entering freeze for libvirt-1.2.17

by Daniel Veillard

Following discussions on Friday, I applied the patches to deactivate the subset of Admin APIs and revert from 1.3.0 to 1.2.17. I then tagged in git and pushed signed tarballs and rpms to the usual place: ftp://libvirt.org/pub/libvirt/ I didn't run my usual tests on that one, my infra is in flux, so even more reasons for people to give it a try :-) I'm likely to make a candidate release 2 on Tuesday and if all goes well we can push 1.2.17 on Thursday, thanks, Daniel -- Daniel Veillard | Open Source and Standards, Red Hat veillard(a)redhat.com | libxml Gnome XML XSLT toolkit http://xmlsoft.org/ http://veillard.com/ | virtualization library http://libvirt.org/
