linux-loader-v0.5.0

[v0.5.0]

Fixed

• [#104] Fixed the --no-default-features not working.

Changed

• [#111] Use caret requirements for dependencies.

Added

• [#99] Implement Debug and PartialEq for CmdLine.
• [#100] Added Clone derive for CmdLine.

linux-loader-v0.4.0

Fixed

• [#66] Fixed potential overflow in calls to align_up.

Changed

• [#62] The load_cmdline function now takes as a parameter the crate defined Cmdline object instead of Cstr. This means that customers don't need to convert the object before calling into load_cmdline.
• [#83] Updated the vm-memory dependency requirement to the latest version (0.6.0).

Added

• [#79] Implemented
  From<Cmdline> for Vec<u8>. This replaces the obsolete Into
  implementation.

linux-loader-v0.3.0

Fixed

• Replaced panic condition in align_up with returning an Error.
• Fixed potential hang condition in Elf::load caused by arithmetic overflow.
• Disallow overflow when computing the kernel load address when loading ELF.
• Fix unchecked arithmetic in BzImage::load that could lead to undefined
  behavior.

Added

• Added functions for specifying virtio MMIO devices when building the kernel
  command line.
• Added a function to specify multiple values in key=values pairs when
  building the kernel command line.

v0.2.0

Added

• Added traits and structs for loading ELF (vmlinux), big zImage (bzImage) and PE (Image) kernels into guest memory.
• Added traits and structs for writing boot parameters to guest memory.
