Changelog for firecracker-1.4.1-Virt.1699.28.3.x86_64.rpm :

* Tue Oct 10 2023 Andrea Manzini - Update to 1.4.1:
* Fixed a change in behavior of normalize host brand string that breaks Firecracker on external instances.
* Fixed the T2A CPU template not to unset the MMX bit (CPUID.80000001h:EDX[23]) and the FXSR bit (CPUID.80000001h:EDX[24]).
* Fixed the T2A CPU template to set the RstrFpErrPtrs bit (CPUID.80000008h:EBX[2]).- Update to 1.4.0: Added
* Added support for custom CPU templates allowing users to adjust vCPU features exposed to the guest via CPUID, MSRs and ARM registers.
* Introduced V1N1 static CPU template for ARM to represent Neoverse V1 CPU as Neoverse N1.
* Added support for the virtio-rng entropy device. The device is optional. A single device can be enabled per VM using the /entropy endpoint.
* Added a cpu-template-helper tool for assisting with creating and managing custom CPU templates. Changed
* Set FDP_EXCPTN_ONLY bit (CPUID.7h.0:EBX[6]) and ZERO_FCS_FDS bit (CPUID.7h.0:EBX[13]) in Intel\'s CPUID normalization process. Fixed
* Fixed feature flags in T2S CPU template on Intel Ice Lake.
* Fixed CPUID leaf 0xb to be exposed to guests running on AMD host.
* Fixed a performance regression in the jailer logic for closing open file descriptors.
* A race condition that has been identified between the API thread and the VMM thread due to a misconfiguration of the api_event_fd.
* Fixed CPUID leaf 0x1 to disable perfmon and debug feature on x86 host.
* Fixed passing through cache information from host in CPUID leaf 0x80000006.
* Fixed the T2S CPU template to set the RRSBA bit of the IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES MSR to 1 in accordance with an Intel microcode update.
* Fixed the T2CL CPU template to pass through the RSBA and RRSBA bits of the IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES MSR from the host in accordance with an Intel microcode update.
* Fixed passing through cache information from host in CPUID leaf 0x80000005.
* Fixed the T2A CPU template to disable SVM (nested virtualization).
* Fixed the T2A CPU template to set EferLmsleUnsupported bit (CPUID.80000008h:EBX[20]), which indicates that EFER[LMSLE] is not supported.- Update to 1.3.3:
* Fixed passing through cache information from host in CPUID leaf 0x80000006.
* Thu May 18 2023 Paolo Stivanin - Update to 1.3.2: Added
* Introduced T2CL (Intel) and T2A (AMD) CPU templates to provide instruction set feature parity between Intel and AMD CPUs when using these templates.
* Added Graviton3 support (c7g instance type). Changed
* Improved error message when invalid network backend provided.
* Improved TCP throughput by between 5% and 15% (depending on CPU) by using
* scatter-gather I/O in the net device\'s TX path.
* Upgraded Rust toolchain from 1.64.0 to 1.66.0.
* Made seccompiler output bit-reproducible. Fixed
* Fixed feature flags in T2 CPU template on Intel Ice Lake.
* A race condition that has been identified between the API thread and the VMM thread due to a misconfiguration of the api_event_fd.
* Mon Dec 19 2022 Andrea Manzini - Update to version 1.2.0
* Added a new CPU template called T2S
* Added a new CLI option --metrics-path PATH
* Added baselines for m6i.metal and m6a.metal
* Changed the jailer option --exec-file to fail if the filename does not contain the string firecracker
* Updated Rust toolchain and all dependencies to their respective newest versions
* Made the T2 template more robust by explicitly disabling additional CPUID flags that should be off
* Now MAC address is correctly displayed when queried with GET /vm/config
* Fixed a self-DoS scenario in the virtio-queue code
* Fixed the bad handling of kernel cmdline parameters when init arguments were provided via JSON PUT /boot-source request
* Fixed a bug on ARM64 hosts where the upper 64bits of the V0-V31 FL/SIMD registers were not saved correctly
