Description:
This update for virtme fixes the following issues:
Update to 1.22:
* Fix potential sudo errors (in openSUSE, Fedora, CachyOS)
* Propagate /proc/sys/fs/nr_open from host to guest
* More robust parsing of upstream kernel versions
* Small command help improvements
Update to 1.21:
* When running in script mode do not hang in case of kernel panic,
but return the special error code 255 (this allows to automate
catching kernel panics)
* Redirect kernel log to stderr on the host when running in interactive
mode: this allows to easily save the kernel log to a file (or pipe
it to another tool), simply by runing a vng -vr 2>/tmp/kernel.log
* vng --dump can now generate a memory dump compatible with drgn
* It is now possible to use virtiofsd with a btrfs root filesystem
on the host (e.g., default openSUSE setup)
* It is not possible to to use the microvm architecture with kernels
that don't have built-in virtio-pci / virtio-mmio (e.g., stock
openSUSE Tumbleweed kernel)
Update to 1.20:
* The return code of a command executed in the vng guest is now
transparently channeled to the host: this, together with
stdin/stdout/stderr redirection, gives the complete illusion to
run the command in the guest as if it was executed on the host
and it can help to easily integrate vng with other CI tools/scripts
* NUMA support: it is now possible to create multiple NUMA nodes,
and assign CPUs to them, inside a vng guest,
using the --numa option.
* new --quiet option to override --verbose
* new --disable-kvm option to explicitly disable hardware
virtualization (KVM)
* lockdep is now disabled by default during the kernel build
Update to 1.19:
* The most noticeable change is definitely the support for running
virtme-ng inside Docker containers. This opens the possibility for
many other projects to use virtme-ng to potentially pick any
arbitrary kernel to run their tests inside their Docker instances.
* The other interesting change (this one only for Ubuntu users) is
the --root-release argument (used together with --root) that allows
bootstrapping a rootfs from scratch, selecting a specific Ubuntu
release. The rootfs will be created from the latest Ubuntu cloud
image of the target release.
