# [v0.14.0]
## Fixed
- [[#224](https://github.com/rust-vmm/linux-loader/pull/224)] Fixed docs.rs build.
## Changed
- [[#237]((https://github.com/rust-vmm/linux-loader/pull/237))] Replace bindgen files with manual translations.
As a consequence, `elf64_phdr` is renamed to `Elf64_Phdr`, `elf64_hdr` to `Elf64_Ehdr`, and `elf64_note` to
`Elf64_Nhdr`. In the definition of the fixed size array `e_ident` we now use `u8` instead of `raw_char`.
# [v0.13.2]
## Changed
- [[#214](https://github.com/rust-vmm/linux-loader/pull/214)] Updated vm-memory to 0.17.1.
# [v0.13.1]
## Changed
- [[#148](https://github.com/rust-vmm/linux-loader/pull/148)] Fixing kernel commandline parameter validation
This change allows parameter values containing spaces in the middle, provided they are enclosed in quotes. However,
strings with quotes in the middle will no longer be accepted as valid parameter values.
- [[#205](https://github.com/rust-vmm/linux-loader/pull/205)] Make image header for ARM and RISC-V public
Kernel headers for ARM and RISC-V are made public to be used in a fw_cfg
implementation that reads the kernel header.
# [v0.13.0]
## Added
- [[#190](https://github.com/rust-vmm/linux-loader/pull/190)] Introduce RISC-V64
architecture support.
## Changed
- [[#194](https://github.com/rust-vmm/linux-loader/pull/194)] Updated vm-memory to 0.16.0.
- [[#197](https://github.com/rust-vmm/linux-loader/pull/197)] Re-organize
`loader`, `configurator` and `benches` module layout, leaving original interface
intact.
# [v0.12.0]
## Changed
- [[#187](https://github.com/rust-vmm/linux-loader/pull/187)] Updated vm-memory to 0.15.0.
- [[#179](https://github.com/rust-vmm/linux-loader/pull/179)] Load hvm_modlist_entry into guest memory when requested.
- [[#177](https://github.com/rust-vmm/linux-loader/pull/176)] Added loading
of PVH module blobs into guest memory. This enables booting with `initrd`
via PVH boot.
# [v0.11.0]
## Changed
- [[#173](https://github.com/rust-vmm/linux-loader/pull/173)] Updated vm-memory to 0.14.0.
- [[#170](https://github.com/rust-vmm/linux-loader/pull/170)] Added all features to the generated docs.rs documentation.
# [v0.10.0]
## Changed
- [[#162](https://github.com/rust-vmm/linux-loader/pull/162)] Updated vm-memory to 0.13.0.
This introduces a `ReadVolatile` bound on `KernelLoader::load`.
# [v0.9.1]
## Fixed
- [[#130]](https://github.com/rust-vmm/linux-loader/issues/130) Generate bindings
to fix unaligned references in unit tests.
- [[#160]](https://github.com/rust-vmm/linux-loader/pulls/160) Update vm-memory to 0.12.2
# [v0.9.0]
## Fixed
- [[#71]](https://github.com/rust-vmm/linux-loader/issues/71) Fix incorrect
alignment for ELF notes, starting address of name field and descriptor
field have a 4-byte alignment.
# [v0.8.1]
## Fixed
- [[#125]](https://github.com/rust-vmm/linux-loader/pull/125) The ELF
header contains offsets that the loader uses to find other
structures. If those offsets are beyond the end of the file (or would go
past the end of the file) it is essential to error out when attempting
to read those.
## Added
- Add a new criterion advisory to ignore list [`2580d4`](https://github.com/rust-vmm/linux-loader/commit/2580d45f741988468e9b086adbcadae7cc7433a5)
# [v0.8.0]
## Changed
- Updated vm-memory from 0.9.0 to 0.10.0
# [v0.7.0]
## Added
- Added `insert_init_args` method allowing insertion of init arguments into `Cmdline`.
## Changed
- Removed `InvalidDevice` error type (it wasn't used anywhere).
- Replaced `From` with `TryFrom<Cmdline>` for `Vec<u8>` to be able
to propagate errors returned by `as_cstring` when converting a `Cmdline` to `Vec<u8>`.
- Support added for both boot and init arguments in `try_from`.
- Changed `new` to return `Result` for invalid command line capacity handling.
# [v0.6.0]
## Changed
- Crate is now using edition 2021.
## Added
- Derived `Eq` for `Error` types and the `PvhBootCapability` enum.
## Fixed
- Fixed a bug in `load_cmdline` due to which the command line was not null
terminated. This resulted in a change in the `Cmdline` API where instead of
returning the cmdline as a String, we're now returning it as a `CString` as
the latter has support for converting it to a null terminated bytes array.
- Fixed an off-by-one error in load_cmdline, where we were doing validations
on the first address after the command line memory region, instead of the
last inclusive one of it.
# [v0.5.0]
## Fixed
- [[#104]](https://github.com/rust-vmm/linux-loader/issues/104) Fixed
the `--no-default-features` not working.
## Changed
- [[#111]](https://github.com/rust-vmm/linux-loader/pull/111) Use
caret requirements for dependencies.
## Added
- [[#99]](https://github.com/rust-vmm/linux-loader/pull/99) Implement
`Debug` and `PartialEq` for `CmdLine`.
- [[#100]](https://github.com/rust-vmm/linux-loader/pull/100) Added
`Clone` derive for `CmdLine`.
# [v0.4.0]
## Fixed
- [[#66]](https://github.com/rust-vmm/linux-loader/issues/66) Fixed potential
overflow in calls to `align_up`.
## Changed
- [[#62]](https://github.com/rust-vmm/linux-loader/issues/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]](https://github.com/rust-vmm/linux-loader/issues/83) Updated the
vm-memory dependency requirement to the latest version (0.6.0).
## Added
- [[#79]](https://github.com/rust-vmm/linux-loader/pull/79) Implemented
`From<Cmdline>` for `Vec<u8>`. This replaces the obsolete `Into`
implementation.
# [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.
