The 9.9.0 release of both libvirt and libvirt-python is tagged and
signed tarballs and source RPMs are available at
https://download.libvirt.org/
https://download.libvirt.org/python/
Thanks everybody who helped with this release by sending patches,
reviewing, testing, or providing feedback. Your work is greatly
appreciated.
* New features
* QEMU: implement reverting external snapshots
Reverting external snapshots is now possible using the existing API
``virDomainSnapshotRevert()``. Management application can check host
capabilities for ``<externalSnapshot/>`` element within the list of
guest features to see if the current libvirt supports both deleting
and reverting external snapshots.
* virsh: add ``console --resume`` support
The ``virsh console`` subcommand now accepts a ``--resume`` option. This
will resume a paused guest after connecting to the console.
* Improvements
* virsh: Improve ``virsh start --console`` behavior
The ``virsh start --console`` now tries to connect to the guest console
before starting the vCPUs.
* virsh: Improve ``virsh create --console`` behavior
The ``virsh create --console`` now tries to connect to the guest console
before starting the vCPUs.
Enjoy.
