Hello Kata Kats,




I'm proud to announce that we have reached another milestone for Kata

Containers by releasing the 1.3.0 release and 1.2.2 stable release.

All users are recommended to upgrade.




The 1.3.0 release highlights following features:




- Network hotplug: Sandbox network can now be dynamically changed by

the "kata-runtime network" subcommand. This allows customized CNI

plugins to create more Kata-native network endpoints.




- Network monitoring: a new kata component (kata-netmon) is added to

monitor container netns on the host. Now CNI hooks to dynamically

change the network setup of a running container, and "docker network

connect" works with Kata Containers.




- Network multiqueue support: Network cards are added to to the guest

with multiqueue support. It allows Kata Containers to gain better

network performance.




- Memory hotplug: "kata-runtime update" subcommand can now add extra

memory to a running container.




- Better container memory constraint support: containers in the same

sandbox can be constrained by memcg inside the guest.




- GPU support: both GVT-g and GVT-d GPU devices can now be used by

Kata Containers.




- Architecture/arm64: add GICv4 or higher support.

The 1.2.2 stable release also sees several important fixes and users

who want to stick with stable-1.2 branch are recommended to update.

For full details, please see

https://github.com/kata-containers/runtime/releases/tag/1.2.2




Thanks to all contributors who have helped to make it happen!




Cheers,

Tao
