CHANGES.md.html

v1.4.2 (2022-02-04)

  • fix issues "use OCaml solo5-elftool instead of binary" where the compressed unikernel image was passed to the tool (if albatross-provision-request was used, and in albatross-daemon) (#101 by @palainp, fixed in #102 by @hannesm)

v1.4.1 (2022-01-31)

  • Debian packaging fix typo in lib_exec_dir (create_package.sh, #100 @dinosaure)

v1.4.0 (2022-01-28)

  • albatross-provision-ca: support signing of server certificates

  • use solo5-elftool (developed in OCaml) instead of binary, avoids solo5 dependency for albatross-client-* (#94 @reynir, fixes #93), removes jsonm dependency

  • albatross-influx: reconnect TCP to influx (telegraf) host (#97 @hannesm, fixes #69)

  • by default, do not print argv in unikernel_info (and pp_wire). only if the logging level is verbose (#96 @hannesm, fixes @92)

  • avoid file descriptor leak on Linux in albatross-stats when reading /proc//status (#99 @hannesm)

  • remove astring dependency (#99 @hannesm)

  • Debian packaging

    • install metadata and service scripts with 0644 permissions (@reynir)

    • postinst: do not use sudo (@reynir)

    • postinst: set ownerhip of /var/lib/albatross and /var/lib/albatross/block to $ALBATROSS_USER (@reynir)

    • postinst: create group and user only if they do not exist yet (@reynir)

    • install daemons into /usr/libexec/albatross to avoid accidental invocation (@hannesm #95, fixes #91)

    • add network.target and NetworkManager-wait-online.service to dependencies of albatross_daemon to ensure bridges already exists (#98 @reynir, fixes #90)

  • use happy-eyeballs for name resolution and connection setup (@hannesm)

  • converge albatross-client-* semantics (@hannesm)

  • Implement block_set and block_dump subcommands, also block_add is extended to include the block device data (@hannesm, inspired by @dinosaure)

  • Implement update subcommand for albatross-client-{local,bistro}, which (a) retrieves the digest of a running unikernel (b) looks up that hash on http://builds.robur.coop (a repository of reproducible built unikernels) (c) does a unikernel update (with same arguments and configuration) (@reynir @hannesm)

  • Debian and FreeBSD packaging via orb, available on https://builds.robur.coop (#80 @hannesm @reynir)
