=head1 NAME
|
||||
|
||||
guestfs-release-notes - libguestfs Release Notes
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 RELEASE NOTES FOR LIBGUESTFS 1.52
|
||||
|
||||
These are the release notes for libguestfs stable release 1.52.
|
||||
This describes the major changes since 1.50.
|
||||
|
||||
Libguestfs 1.52.0 was released on B<XXX XXX 2024>.
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 Language bindings
|
||||
|
||||
The Python bindings now use C<bytes> (instead of C<str>) for the event
|
||||
callback message, since it may contain arbitrary 8 bit data (thanks
|
||||
Yonatan Shtarkman).
|
||||
|
||||
Also in the Python bindings, fix a rare crash, and avoid memory leaks
|
||||
in event callbacks (thanks Yonatan Shtarkman, Laszlo Ersek, Eric
|
||||
Blake).
|
||||
|
||||
Support for OCaml 5, and OCaml E<ge> 4.07 is now the minimum (thanks
|
||||
Guillaume Munch-Maccagnoni, Jerry James, Josh Berdine, Jürgen Hötzel,
|
||||
Vincent Laviron).
|
||||
|
||||
The OCaml bindings now release the runtime lock around calls to
|
||||
C<guestfs_close>, since that call might be long-running (for example
|
||||
it might have to shut down the appliance and synch disks).
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 Inspection
|
||||
|
||||
Support OpencloudOS (cunshunxia@tencent).
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 API
|
||||
|
||||
SELinux relabelling now runs in parallel if supported by the current
|
||||
SELinux implementation, meaning it's a lot quicker (Andrey Drobyshev).
|
||||
|
||||
Add support for lzma and zstd compression methods in tar APIs (like
|
||||
C<guestfs_tar_in>) (Zixun LI).
|
||||
|
||||
C<guestfs_pvs_full> previously didn't always return the correct device
|
||||
names. This has now been fixed.
|
||||
|
||||
C<guestfs_btrfs_filesystem_balance> fixed so it now works with more
|
||||
modern btrfs tools (Jürgen Hötzel).
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 Tools
|
||||
|
||||
The L<guestfish(1)> I<--key> option now recognizes LVM names like
|
||||
F</dev/mapper/rhel boot--73--75--123-root> (Laszlo Ersek).
|
||||
|
||||
guestfish I<--key> option also supports a new S<I<--key all:...>>
|
||||
selector to try the same key on all devices.
|
||||
|
||||
In L<guestmount(1)> avoid calling C<fclose(NULL)> on error paths,
|
||||
which might have caused a crash on some platforms.
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 Build changes
|
||||
|
||||
The C<RELEASES> file (which listed release dates) has been removed and
|
||||
replaced with a simple C<RELEASE_DATE> set in F<./configure>. This
|
||||
should simplify builds.
|
||||
|
||||
Optionally L<passt(1)> may be used for networking (Laszlo Ersek).
|
||||
|
||||
L<dhcpcd(8)> is now used in preference to dh-client on Red Hat
|
||||
platforms.
|
||||
|
||||
Old Ruby C<MiniTest> and C<Test::Unit> dependencies replaced with new
|
||||
C<Minitest>.
|
||||
|
||||
Fix compatibility issues with libxml2 2.12.
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 Internals
|
||||
|
||||
On x86-64 we now use the more modern q35 machine type when running the
|
||||
appliance. This should perform slightly better and has more
|
||||
development attention from the qemu community. The change should be
|
||||
invisible to libguestfs users.
|
||||
|
||||
Fix a segmentation fault when C<TERM> environment variable was set to
|
||||
C<dumb> (Daisuke HATAYAMA).
|
||||
|
||||
Avoid a warning on modern Fedora which does not have F</selinux>
|
||||
(Andrey Drobyshev).
|
||||
|
||||
Fix build on OpenSUSE LEAP 15 or other distros with a L<file(1)>
|
||||
command which did not understand the I<-S> option (thanks Olaf
|
||||
Hering).
