I went through the commits since last release and added a few notes
which seem to be relevant for the news.
In case you notice there's something missing, please, either send me the
text to add it (and I'll re-sping this patch) and add the text before
merging this one.
Changes since v1:
- Actually run make-check in order to be sure the changes are fine.

From now on, let's not limit this to 'raw' only. I'd say: Libvirt has supported 'raw' input volumes for encryption since 4.5.0.

Too verbose, how about: The --domain option for domxml-to-native virsh command has always been documented as required, but commit v4.3.0-127-gd86531daf2 accidentally made it optional. > + </description> > + </change> > + <change> > + <summary> > + lxc_monitor: Avoid AB / BA lock race > + </summary> > + <description> > + A dealock situation could occur when autostarting a LXC domain 'guest' > + due to two threads attempting to take opposing locks while holding > + opposing locks (AB BA problem). > + </description> > + </change> > </section> > </release> > <release version="v4.7.0" date="2018-09-03"> Now, this is just a matter of preference, you did a good job, but I'd probably also mention the following: 09d35afd2c util: file: introduce VIR_AUTOCLOSE macro to close fd of the file automatic ally 0396cf5336 virsh: Implement vsh-table to iface-list (basically extending it to the whole virsh) your call...with the grammar adjustments mentioned above: Reviewed-by: Erik Skultety <eskultet@redhat.com> -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list

In my view it's just a matter of our internal implementation. We haven't mention VIR_AUTOFREE() back in the day.

Prior to 4.5 encrypted volumes was supported though - so I'd be careful to note a version. The 4.5 change was to "fix" the code in order to handle the multi-step processing that qemu-img now needs to encrypt a LUKS volume. At best this is a we're now allowing the input volume to be encrypted. > + <change> > + <summary> > + libxl: Add support to set shadow memory for any guest type > + </summary> > + <description> > + PVH guests now can take advantage of using shadow memory. > + </description> > + </change> > </section> > <section title="Bug fixes"> > + <change> > + <summary> > + virsh: Require explicit --domain for domxml-to-native > + </summary> > + <description> > + The domxml-to-native virsh command accepts either --xml or --domain > + option followed by a file or domain name respectively, The --domain > + option is documented as required, which means an argument with no > + option is treated as --xml.
