[PATCH 00/15] docs: Convert some pages to rST and clean up (part 6)
by Peter Krempa 01 Jun '22

01 Jun '22

After this series only 2 non-generated HTML files remain: - index.html.in - 404.html.in It is possible to convert these but the utility of doing so may not be great for now. Additionally this series cleans up some long-broken links and removes unneeded raw HTML passthrough to declare anchors.

Release of libvirt-8.4.0
by Jiri Denemark 01 Jun '22

01 Jun '22

The 8.4.0 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 * qemu: D-Bus display Libvirt is now able to setup a D-Bus display export, either with a private bus or in p2p mode. This display is available in QEMU 7.0.0. * qemu: ppc64 Power10 processor support Support for the recently released IBM Power10 processor was added. * qemu: Introduce ``absolute`` clock offset The ``absolute`` clock offset type allows to set the guest clock to an arbitrary epoch timestamp at each start. This is useful if some VM needs to be kept set to an arbitrary time for e.g. testing or working around broken software. * qemu: add qemu-vdagent channel This paravirtualized qemu vdagent channel can enable copy and paste between a guest and a VNC client. It is available in QEMU 6.1.0. * api: Add new APIs ``virDomainSaveParams`` and ``virDomainRestoreParams`` * ``virDomainSaveParams``: An alternative domain saving API, extends ``virDomainSaveFlags`` by adding parameters. * ``virDomainRestoreParams``: An alternative domain restoring API, extends ``virDomainRestoreFlags`` by adding parameters. * Bug fixes * Improve heuristics for computing baseline CPU models Both ``virConnectBaselineHypervisorCPU`` and ``virConnectBaselineCPU`` were in some cases computing the result using a CPU model which was newer than some of the input models. For example, ``Cascadelake-Server`` was used as a baseline for ``Skylake-Server-IBRS`` and ``Cascadelake-Server``. The CPU model selection heuristics was improved to choose a more appropriate model. Enjoy. Jirka

[PATCH 00/67] docs: Fix and clean up anchor links
by Peter Krempa 01 Jun '22

01 Jun '22

First 50 patches remove the use of raw HTML passthrough in formatdomain.rst, which is the only outstanding place which still does. Most of the work was done by a ad-hoc bash script, but manual tweaks were needed. Since this series also contains a test script which validates linking I'm not going to publish the conversion script. The rest of the series then cleans up pre-existing broken links and adds the aforementioned checker script. One more change is to prevent the use of external references in RST to refer to the same file. All usage was converted to local references and a syntax check was added. One slight drawback of the checker script is that it works on generated HTML files and thus the error message contains the output file name and not the source RST document.

[PATCH] gitlab: issue_template: Remove labelling commands
by Peter Krempa 01 Jun '22

01 Jun '22

The commands only work for users who are members of the project and thus can set flags themselves. For non-members they are ignored, so there's isn't much value in having it here. Additionally in my recent upstream issue triage I've changed some of the labels so they were not accurate anyways.
