The 11.8.0 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: Disk hotplug Support Users can now attach and detach disks of Cloud Hypervisor domains at runtime. * qemu: Add support for NUMA affinity of PCI devices To support NVIDIA Multi-Instance GPU (MIG) configurations, libvirt now handles QEMU's acpi-generic-initiator device internally. MIG enables partitioning a physical GPU into multiple isolated instances, each associated with one or more virtual NUMA nodes. On the XML side, the existing ``<acpi>`` element has been extended with a ``nodeset`` attribute to specify the NUMA node affinity of a PCI device. * Improvements * ch: Events emitting The CH driver not only emits more domain lifecycle events but also implements ``virConnectDomainEventRegister()`` and ``virConnectDomainEventDeregister()`` APIs for management applications to listen on those events. * Bug fixes * qemu: Fix selection of stateless/combined firmware A stateless firmware will now be correctly chosen when appropriate, e.g. for domains configured to use SEV-SNP. * ch: Make sure the cloud-hypervisor process is killed in ``virCHProcessStop()`` Due to wrong assumptions in the CH driver, calling ``virDomainDestroy()`` did not kill the corresponding cloud-hypervisor process. Domains can be now destroyed reliably. Enjoy. Jirka
