v0.12.3
This is the latest version submitted to the FreeBSD ports tree (& pkg)
Highlights for this release since the last one (0.8.7)
- Vastly improved grub support. All grub guests (linux/openbsd/netbsd) get customised grub menus that are accessible from the guest console. Users can let the guest auto-boot, but they always have the option to drop to the grub console. We also have fairly extensive control over the
grub-bhyve
comdline and loader commands from the guest configuration file. -
vm add
command to add network or disk devices to a guest - Various performance improvements
- Improved logging (we also rotate logs to make sure they don't get too big)
- Snapshot / Rollback on ZFS
- Support custom disk paths, allows users to attach disk images that are stored anywhere on the system. This could even be a real disk in
/dev
. - Config options to enable utctime and virtio-rnd
- Guest network interfaces should be able to auto-attach to bridges that have jumbo frames (non 1500 mtu) enabled
- We now allow users to use their own custom bridge or tap devices if they want
-
vm info guest
&vm switch info name
commands which provide lots of information. - We now assign static mac addresses to all interfaces. If bhyve generated a different mac automatically, guests like Windows end up configuring it as a new interface.
- UEFI (& thus Windows) should work in 10.3-RELEASE
- Ability to set rctl limits
- Fixes to wired memory support (for PCI passthrough)
