- VirtualBox 7.0.8 (released April 18 2023)
This is a maintenance release. The following items were fixed and/or added:
VMM: Introduced general improvements in nested visualization area
GUI: Brought back Restore current snapshot checkbox of Close VM dialog (bugs #21189, #21491)
GUI: Fixes and validation for VM settings USB filters editor, filter port value is now properly saved/restored
GUI: Fixes for VM name and OS type embedded editors of Details pane
GUI: Cloud related wizards should now propose enabled profiles before disabled
Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack: Fixed shipping the cryptographic support module for full VM encryption
E1000: Fixed possible guru meditation when changing network attachments (bug #21488)
virtio-net: Follow up fixes for FreeBSD 12.3 and pfSense 2.6.0 (bug #21201)
3D: Fixed various graphics issues with Windows 7 guests (bugs #21129, #21196, #21208, #21521)
Main/UefiVariableStore: Added API to add signatures to the MOK list (Machine Owner Key)
VBoxManage: Introduced modifynvram enrollmok sub-command to enroll Machine Owner Key into NVRAM, so Linux guest kernel can pick it up in order to verify signature of modules signed with this key
Guest Control/Main: Fixed deleting files via built-in toolbox
Linux host: Added possibility to bypass kernel modules signature verification once VBOX_BYPASS_MODULES_SIGNATURE_CHECK="1" is specified in /etc/vbox/vbox.cfg, useful in case if Linux distribution does not provide necessary tools to verify kernel module signature
Linux Guest Additions and host Installer: Improved detection if system is running systemd as the init process
Linux Guest Additions and host drivers: Introduce initial support for kernel 6.3
Linux Guest Additions: Added possibility to bypass kernel modules signature verification once VBOX_BYPASS_MODULES_SIGNATURE_CHECK="1" is specified in /etc/virtualbox-guest-additions.conf, useful in case if Linux distribution does not provide necessary tools to verify kernel module signature
Linux Guest Additions: Added experimental support for kernel modules and user services reloading in the end of installation process, thus guest system reboot after Guest Additions (7.0.8 and newer) upgrade is no longer required in general case
Linux Guest Additions: Fixed vboxvideo build issue with RHEL 8.7, 9.1 and 9.2 kernels (bugs #21446 and #21450)

- File "fixes_for_kernel_6.3.patch" is updated for more API changes
File "fix_7.0.6_locking_problems.patch" is added. Fixes boo#1209529.
Larry Len Rainey and I have worked on this bug for some time. It only
happened on systems with large numbers of processors and many virtual
machines. We suspected a locking problem, but the thought of auditing
the entire code was daunting until it was discovered that there was no
problem if the host ran VB 6.1.40. It did not matter what version the
guests were running. That essentially eliminated every code part except
for vboxdrv.ko. That made the audit tractable. There were two files and
a total of 8 places where the locking was suspect. When those were
changed, the lockups while using 7.0.6 host code were no longer observed.
The lockups were infrequent, thus it is impossible to say that we have
fixed everything, but the frequency is clearly diminished.
spec-cleaner used to remove extra blank line is spec file.
