Allow opening secondary drivers
|

</summary>
|

<description>
|
||||
Up until now it was possible to connect to only hypervisor drivers
|
||||
(e.g. qemu:///system, lxc:///, vbox:///system, and so on). The
|
||||
internal drivers (like network driver, node device driver, etc.) were
|
||||
hidden from users and users could use them only indirectly. Starting
|
||||
with this release new connection URIs are accepted. For instance
|
||||
network:///system, storage:///system and so on.

These two daemons now support admin protocol through which some admin

Make port allocator global

</summary>
|

<description>
|
||||
Up until now each driver had their own port allocator module. This
|
||||
meant that info on port usage was not shared. Starting with this
|
||||
release, the port allocator module is made global and therefore
|
||||
drivers allocate ports from global pool.

qemu: Check for unsafe migration more thoroughly
|
||||
</summary>
|
||||
<description>
|
||||
If a domain disk is stored on local filesystem (e.g. ext4) but is
|
||||
not being migrated it is very likely that domain is not able to
|
||||
run on destination. Regardless of share/cache mode.

qemu: Fix updating device with boot order
|

</summary>
|
||||
<description>
|
||||
Starting with 3.7.0 release updating any device with boot order would
|
||||
fail with 'boot order X is already used by another device' while in
|
||||
fact it was the very same device.

virlog: determine the hostname on startup CVE-2018-6764
|

</summary>
|

<description>
|
||||
At later point it might not be possible or even safe to use
|
||||
getaddrinfo(). It can in turn result in a load of NSS module which
|
||||
can even be loaded from unsage guest filesystem and thus escape the
|
||||
confinment of its container.

qemu: Rework vCPU statistics fetching
|
||||
</summary>
|
||||
<description>
|
||||
Fetching vCPU statistics was very expensive because it lead to waking
|
||||
up vCPU threads in QEMU and thus it degraded performance. The code
|
||||
was reworked so that fetching statistics does not wake up halted
|
||||
vCPUs.

qemu: unlink memory backing file on domain shutdown
|
||||
</summary>
|
||||
<description>
|
||||
Depending on the filesystem where domain memory is stored, some files
|
||||
might have been left behind. This is not a problem on hugetlbfs, but
|
||||
it is a problem on regular filesystems like ext4.

nodedev: Update PCI mdev capabilities dynamically
|
||||
</summary>
|
||||
<description>
|
||||
PCI devices may have other nested capabilities, like SRIOV and mdev
|
||||
which depend on the device being plugged into the native vendor
|
||||
driver. However, in case such a device is directly assigned to a guest
|
||||
using VFIO driver, the device will naturally lose these capabilities
|
||||
and libvirt needs to reflect that.
