anyvm 0.7.1 herunterladen

New: FreeBSD 10.4 and 11.4
Two more FreeBSD generations, from builder 2.2.8, on x86_64 only:
anyvm.py --os freebsd --release 10.4
anyvm.py --os freebsd --release 11.4
pkg.FreeBSD.org dropped its FreeBSD 10 / 11 / 12 repositories long ago, so these
images take their packages from the preserved SGGS mirror, which keeps FreeBSD's
original repository signatures -- pkg verifies them against the fingerprint
shipped in the base system. That also reaches 12.4 x86_64: it now ships
rsync and fusefs-sshfs, so all five sync backends work there instead of
nfs / scp / tar only. 12.4 aarch64 stays base-only; no aarch64 packages
exist for FreeBSD 12.
Two things anyvm had to learn to run them:
- Boot via SeaBIOS below 12. FreeBSD's VM images only gained an EFI system
partition on amd64 from 12.x on, so under OVMF a 10.x / 11.x image has nothing
to boot from and parks at the EFI shell. anyvm now drops its UEFI default for
those releases once the release is resolved, and boots the freebsd-boot
partition they do ship. An explicit --uefi still wins.
- 10.x runs on the qemu64 CPU model. FreeBSD 10's signal delivery panics
when -cpu host exposes the full modern XSAVE feature set, so the image is
built and must be run on QEMU's baseline model, under every accelerator.
Mirrors the builder's pin; --cpu-type overrides.
Fixed: a lost network probe no longer reports "Unsupported OS"
vmactions/freebsd-vm#163:
a single failed probe of the release download URL sent the run down the
unauthenticated GitHub REST API, which the shared runner IP had already
exhausted. The 403 was retried for three minutes and then reported as
Unsupported OS: freebsd -- true of nothing.
- The release-URL probe now retries transient failures; only a 404 means the
asset is absent.
- A rate-limited 403 (X-RateLimit-Remaining: 0) or a 429 stops the retry loop
immediately and reports the reset time and the remedy (GITHUB_TOKEN)
instead of burning minutes on a limit that will not lift.
- "The API could not be asked" and "this repository does not exist" are now
distinct outcomes, so a connectivity failure is reported as one rather than
as an unsupported guest.
- The Authorization header no longer follows a cross-host redirect.
urllib's default handler forwards it to whatever host the redirect names;
anyvm now drops it whenever the host changes, so a token set for the GitHub
API cannot leak to a release-asset CDN or anywhere else.
Other
- Default builder pin: freebsd 2.2.7 -> 2.2.8.
- CI: 10.4 and 11.4 joined the FreeBSD x86_64 matrix, and 12.4 x86_64 gained
its rsync + sshfs legs.
