We are delighted to announce the release of Solo5 0.12.0. This has two distinct features: a new hvt backend for DragonFlyBSD nvmm, thanks to first-time contributor Michael Neumann, and soft power-off of virtio unikernels - a long-standing feature request, which makes using solo5 e.g. on Google compute much smoother – this was initially requested by Michael Bacarella, including draft implementations, and now implemented and merged by Romain Calascibetta.
Other noteworthy fixes include that configure.sh now checks for the C compiler version to be at least GCC in version 9 or clang in version 10. The solo5-hvt-debug crashed since too strict seccomp rules were applied (since solo5 0.11.0) - thanks to Felix Solcher for opening the issue, and again Romain Calascibetta for the fix.
