``` This release has been tracked in v50.0 group of our roadmap project. Configurable Nested Virtualization Option on x86_64 The nested=on|off option has been added to --cpu to allow users to configure nested virtualization support in the guest on x86_64 hosts (for both KVM and MSHV). The default value is on to maintain consistency with existing behavior. (#7408) Compression Support for QCOW2 QCOW2 support has been extended to handle compression clusters based on zlib and zstd. (#7462) Notable Performance Improvements Performance of live migration has been improved via an optimized implementation of dirty bitmap maintenance. (#7468) Live Disk Resizing Support for Raw Images The /vm.resize-disk API has been introduced to allow users to resize block devices backed by raw images while a guest is running. (#7476) Developer Experience Improvements Significant improvements have been made to developer experience and productivity. These include a simplified root manifest, codified and tightened Clippy lints, and streamlined workflows for cargo clippy and cargo test. (#7489) Improved File-level Locking Support Block devices now use byte-range advisory locks instead of whole-file locks. While both approaches prevent multiple Cloud Hypervisor instances from simultaneously accessing the same disk image with write permissions, byte-range locks provide better compatibility with network storage backends. (#7494) Logging Improvements Logs now include event information generated by the event-monitor module. (#7512) Notable Bug Fixes * Fix several issues around CPUID in the guest (#7485, #7495, #7508) * Fix snapshot/restore for Windows Guest (#7492) * Respect queue size in block performance tests (#7515) * Fix several Serial Manager issues (#7502) * Fix several seccomp violation issues (#7477, #7497, #7518) * Fix various issues around block and qcow (#7526, #7528, #7537, #7546, #7549) * Retrieve MSRs list correctly on MSHV (#7543) * Fix live migration (and snapshot/restore) with AMX state (#7534) ``` Signed-off-by: Fabiano Fidêncio <ffidencio@nvidia.com>
