The 10.2.0 release of both libvirt and libvirt-python is tagged and signed tarballs 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 * ch: Basic save and restore support for ch driver The ch driver now supports basic save and restore operations. This is functional on domains without any network, host device config defined. The `path` parameter for save and restore should be a directory. * qemu: Support for driver type ``mtp`` in ``<filesystem/>`` devices The ``mtp`` driver type exposes the ``usb-mtp`` device in QEMU. The guest can access files on this driver through the Media Transfer Protocol (MTP). * qemu: Added support for the loongarch64 architecture It is now possible for libvirt to run loongarch64 guests, including on other architectures via TCG. For the best results, it is recommended to use the upcoming QEMU 9.0.0 release together with the development version of edk2. * qemu: Introduce virDomainGraphicsReload API Reloading the graphics display is now supported for QEMU guests using VNC. This is useful to make QEMU reload the TLS certificates without restarting the guest. Available via the ``virDomainGraphicsReload`` API and the ``domdisplay-reload`` virsh command. * Bug fixes * qemu: Fix migration from libvirt older than 9.10.0 when vmx is enabled A domain with vmx feature enabled (which may be even done automatically with ``mode='host-model'``) started by libvirt 9.9.0 or older cannot be migrated to libvirt 9.10.0, 10.0.0, and 10.1.0 as the target host would complain about a lot of extra ``vmx-*`` features. Migration of similar domains started by the affected releases to libvirt 9.9.0 and older does not work either. Since libvirt 10.2.0 migration works again with libvirt 9.9.0 and older in both directions. Migration from the affected releases to 10.2.0 works as well, but the other direction remains broken unless the fix is backported. * node_device: Don't report spurious errors from PCI VPD parsing In last release the PCI Vital Product Data parser was enhanced to report errors but that effort failed as some kernels have the file but don't allow reading it causing logs to be spammed with:: libvirtd[21055]: operation failed: failed to read the PCI VPD data Since the data is used only in the node device XML and errors are ignored if the parsing failed, this release removes all the error reporting. * qemu: set correct SELinux label for unprivileged virtiofsd It is now possible to use virtiofsd-based ``<filesystem>`` shares even if the guest is confined using SELinux. * qemu: fix a crash on unprivileged virtiofsd hotplug Hotplugging virtiofsd-based filesystems works now. * virt-admin: Fix segfault when libvirtd dies ``virt-admin`` no longer crashes when ``libvirtd`` unexpectedly closes the connection. Enjoy. Jirka
