Release notes for libguestfs 1.14.0
-----------------------------------
These release notes only cover the differences from the previous
stable/dev branch split (1.12.0). For detailed changelogs, please see
the git repository, or the ChangeLog file distributed in the tarball.
New features
Erlang bindings.
virt-alignment-scan is a new tool to check the alignment of
partitions within virtual machines or disk images.
virt-sparsify is a new tool to make virtual machine disk images
sparse.
virt-sysprep is a new tool to make cloning guests from a template
simpler.
guestfish:
- New commands setenv, unsetenv, to set environment variables.
- The input file and line number is printed in error messages.
- guestfish progress bars are now a "mini-library" used by other
tools too.
guestmount:
- the --live option (for access to live VMs) now works.
virt-cat:
- virt-cat can now handle Windows paths and drive letters (RHBZ#693359).
virt-filesystems:
- the MBR partition type byte is displayed in --long output.
virt-make-fs:
- virt-make-fs now sets the MBR partition type byte correctly,
improving compatibility with Windows (RHBZ#746295).
virt-resize:
- virt-resize can now work with guests using extended and logical
partitions, in particular Ubuntu guests.
- virt-resize can now align the first partition of Windows guests,
improving performance. The new virt-resize --align-first option
controls this behaviour.
- The virt-resize --machine-readable flag makes it possible to use
virt-resize from other programs.
- Partitions are now aligned to 128 sectors (usually 64K) by
default. This improves efficiency on high-end storage. The new
virt-resize --alignment option allows the alignment to be
adjusted.
virt-win-reg:
- The syntax for deleting registry keys and values is documented
in the man page (RHBZ#737944).
library:
- non-printing characters are escaped correctly in debug output.
- GUESTFS_EVENT_ENTER is a new event type generated whenever a
libguestfs function is called.
- the library contains systemtap/DTrace probes.
- the library can now be compiled without hivex (RHBZ#723474).
inspection:
- Improve detection of Windows disks.
- Adds support for:
ttylinux - a minimal Linux
Mageia (thanks Michael Scherer)
OpenSUSE and zypper (thanks Michael Scherer, Vincent Untz)
Ubuntu logos (thanks Michael Scherer)
NetBSD and pkgsrc (thanks Michael Scherer)
- Handle some guest types that use /dev/root in /etc/fstab.
- Fix handling of guests with > 26 disks (thanks Matthew Booth)
- Add support for guests with HP Smart Array disks (thanks Matthew Booth)
febootstrap:
- FEBOOTSTRAP_KERNEL, FEBOOTSTRAP_MODULES environment variables can
be set in order to choose which kernel to use for the appliance.
misc:
- ArchLinux support now working with Linux 3.0 (thanks Erik Nolte)
- libvirt disks marked are now added readonly when
using the virt-tools '-d' option.
Security
(no security problems were found or fixed in this release)
New APIs
compress-out, compress-device-out, copy-device-to-device,
copy-device-to-file, copy-file-to-device, copy-file-to-file,
get-smp, part-to-partnum, set-smp.
The mount API no longer implicitly adds -o sync,noatime options.
add-domain has a new 'readonlydisk' optional parameter to control
how disks are handled.
Internals
- Coverity was run on the source and more bugs were identified and
fixed.
- PCRE library is now required to build libguestfs.
- APIC is now the default for the appliance. You can also enable
SMP support in the appliance.
- OCaml bindings now correctly acquire GC lock during callbacks.
- Out of tree builds should now work correctly (thanks Hilko Bengen).
- ./configure --with-extra="..." can be used by packagers to set
the extra version string.
- zero, zero-device APIs: if the blocks already contain zeroes,
don't write zeroes, so that we don't unnecessarily make the
underlying storage non-sparse.
- is-zero, is-zero-device APIs: optimize these so zero detection is
faster.

Release notes for libguestfs 1.6.0
----------------------------------
These release notes only cover the differences from the previous
stable/dev branch split (1.4.0). For detailed changelogs, please see
the git repository, or the ChangeLog file distributed in the tarball.
New features
- Use a new method for creating and caching the appliance. This
greatly improves the performance of libguestfs, often by a factor
of x 4 to x 5.
- Support for guest inspection (like virt-inspector) via the ordinary
API and all language bindings. 'guestfish -i' option is as a side-
effect much quicker.
- virt-inspector and core inspection API can now detect guests running:
Fedora, Debian, Ubuntu, Windows, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, CentOS,
Scientific Linux, Gentoo, Pardus, Arch Linux, MeeGo.
- Support for LUKS whole-disk encryption in guests.
- PHP bindings.
- Progress messages (and progress bars in guestfish and virt-resize)
for certain long-running operations.
- virt-df is now much more efficient. Use '--one-per-guest' to restore
the old per-guest isolation behaviour.
- guestfish 'copy-in' and 'copy-out' commands for copying files and
directories recursively in and out of the guest.
- guestfish 'hexedit' command for doing binary edits to devices and
files.
- Change guestfish -i syntax to allow commands to be specified on the
command line (retaining backwards compatibility).
- guestfish '-d ' for adding disks from libvirt domains.
- guestfish '-N' option supports several new prepared disk image types:
lvfs : disk with LV formatted with filesystem
lv : disk with LV
bootroot : boot+root
bootrootlv : boot and root on LV
- guestfish 'more' and 'edit' commands now work with arbitrary files.
- guestfish '--echo-keys' option allows you to echo keys/passphrases
while typing them.
- guestmount now supports -a / -d / -i options, like guestfish.
- Use virtio-serial for communications with the appliance. This
also has a major performance benefit.
- virt-edit '-b' option to create a backup of edited files.
- virt-edit '-e' option for non-interactive edits to files.
- Ability to capture core dumps from the appliance (thanks Matthew Booth).
- virt-rescue now shuts down cleanly (thanks Matthew Booth).
- virt-rescue now has a --network option to enable network access.
- virt-resize can now handle guests which use GPT partition table format.
- virt-resize has better support for shrinking guests.
- virt-resize supports qcow2-format guests.
- $TMPDIR can be used to override almost all temporary directory usage.
- OCaml users can use an alternate OO-style of coding, eg. g#launch ()
- The API supports calls which take optional parameters, eg.
$g->add_drive_opts ("disk", readonly => 1);
- Trace output now escapes and shortens large strings (thanks
Matthew Booth).
- Autosync is now on by default, resulting in more reliable behaviour
when the handle is closed.
- virt-df --uuid option allows you to follow a domain across migration
and renaming.
- Translations of manual pages.
Security
- CVE-2010-3851 libguestfs: missing disk format specifier when adding a disk
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2010-October/msg00036.html
This is comprehensively fixed in this release, and the fix will be
backported to the other stable branches after more testing.
- virt-inspector no longer relies on untrusted guest code to list
applications in some guests.
