------------------------------------------------------------------- Thu Oct 10 07:06:04 MDT 2024 - carnold@suse.com - Update to version 1.54.0 (jsc#PED-8910) * Add detection of Circle Linux (Bella Zhang). * Add support for LoongArch (liuxiang). * Add detection of Kylin (grass-lu). * Add detection of openEuler (Wang Guoquan). * PARTUUID and PARTLABEL are now resolved in guest /etc/fstab. * New APIs findfs_partuuid and findfs_partlabel. These can be used to efficiently look up a filesystem by its GPT partition UUID or label. * Support for the following inactive or infrequently used device types has been removed: Gluster, Sheepdog, TFTP. * Add GOST R34.11-94 message digest algorithm to checksum APIs (Alexey Shabalin). * Allow nbd+unix:// URIs (NBD over Unix domain socket) in guestfish and other places. * Various part_* (partition) APIs related to GPT have been reimplemented to use util-linux sfdisk instead of sgdisk. Util-linux is more widely available, so this reduces dependencies in the common case. One optional API remains that still uses sgdisk. (Thanks Yongkui Guo). * Add cipher suboption to cryptsetup_open (Jonatan Pålsson). * Because of a bug, the part_get_gpt_attributes API could truncate the return value from 64 to 32 bits. This has been fixed. * Libguestfs will now no longer recommend using LIBGUESTFS_BACKEND=direct. This was shown previously when libvirt failed to start the appliance. However it is felt that this now does more harm than good. * Fix generation of virt-customize --chown parameter (Yongkui Guo) * In the appliance, reduce boot time when dhcp isn't needed (Olaf Hering). * A deadlock in the appliance caused by a regression in Linux 6.11 has been worked around. The deadlock was also fixed in Linux 6.12. - Bug fixes * Fix rare hangs while starting the appliance, at 'echo noop' into /sys/block/{h,s,ub,v}d*/queue/scheduler * Drop dependency from libguestfs -> gdisk * libguestfs inspection does not know about /etc/fstab PARTLABEL=
