Released: 7/19/2021
This release adds two major features and a new API version.
VM annotations can be used to tell ignite another system will inject interfaces into the sandbox container's net-namespace.
These annotations will also tell ignite to plumb those sandbox interfaces to the firecracker MicroVM using tc_redirect. (code example)
kind: VM
apiVersion: ignite.weave.works/v1alpha4
metadata:
annotations:
ignite.weave.works/interface/eth0: 'dhcp-bridge'
ignite.weave.works/interface/eth2: 'tc-redirect'
ignite.weave.works/interface/eth3: 'tc-redirect'
ignite.weave.works/interface/macvtap-uvnrt: 'macvtap'
ignite.weave.works/interface/macvtap-hgfeq: 'macvtap'
ignite.weave.works/sandbox-env/FIRECRACKER_GO_SDK_REQUEST_TIMEOUT_MILLISECONDS: "1000"
ignite.weave.works/sandbox-env/FIRECRACKER_GO_SDK_INIT_TIMEOUT_SECONDS: "1"
It's now possible to use OS and kernel images from an authenticated private registry.
Interface bonding is also enabled in the newest ignite kernels.
New base OS images and kernels have been released with the GitHub Actions release tools.
The default kernel has been updated from 5.4.108
to 5.10.51
.
