Added

  • Added a new API call, PUT /metrics, for configuring the metrics system.
  • Added app_name field in InstanceInfo struct for storing the application
    name.
  • New command-line parameters for firecracker, named --log-path,
    --level, --show-level and --show-log-origin that can be used
    for configuring the Logger when starting the process. When using
    this method for configuration, only --log-path is mandatory.
  • Added a guide for updating the dev container image.
  • Added a new API call, PUT /mmds/config, for configuring the
    MMDS with a custom valid link-local IPv4 address.
  • Added experimental JSON response format support for MMDS guest applications
    requests.
  • Added metrics for the vsock device.
  • Added devtool strip command which removes debug symbols from the release
  • Added the tx_malformed_frames metric for the virtio net device, emitted
    when a TX frame missing the VNET header is encountered.

Fixed

  • Added --version flag to both Firecracker and Jailer.
  • Return 405 Method Not Allowed MMDS response for non HTTP GET MMDS
    requests originating from guest.
  • Fixed folder permissions in the jail (#1802).
  • Any number of whitespace characters are accepted after ":" when parsing HTTP
    headers.
  • Potential panic condition caused by the net device expecting to find a VNET
    header in every frame.
  • Potential crash scenario caused by "Content-Length" HTTP header field
    accepting negative values.
  • Fixed #1754 - net: traffic blocks when running ingress UDP performance tests
    with very large buffers.

Changed

  • Updated CVE-2019-3016 mitigation information in
    Production Host Setup

    the process will exit with return code 152.
  • Removed the testrun.sh wrapper.
  • Removed metrics_fifo field from the logger configuration.
  • Renamed log_fifo field from LoggerConfig to log_path and
    metrics_fifo field from MetricsConfig to metrics_path.
  • PATCH /drives/{id} only allowed post-boot. Use PUT for pre-boot
    updates to existing configurations.
  • PATCH /network-interfaces/{id} only allowed post-boot. Use PUT for
    pre-boot updates to existing configurations.
  • Changed returned status code from 500 Internal Server Error to
    501 Not Implemented, for queries on the MMDS endpoint in IMDS format, when
    the requested resource value type is unsupported.
  • Allowed the MMDS data store to be initialized with all supported JSON types.
    Retrieval of these values within the guest, besides String, Array, and
    Dictionary, is only possible in JSON mode.
  • PATCH request on /mmds before the data store is initialized returns
    403 BadRequest.
  • Segregated MMDS documentation in MMDS design documentation and MMDS user
    guide documentation.
