Introduction
The Incus team is pleased to announce the release of Incus 6.13!
This is a VERY busy release with a lot of new features of all sizes and for all kind of different users, so there should be something for everyone!
As usual, you can try it for yourself online: Linux Containers - Incus - Try it online
Enjoy!
New features
Windows agent support
The Incus VM agent logic has been refactored to allow for it to be built on non-Linux operating systems which was then followed by an initial implementation for Windows.
This is still pretty early work as sadly Windows doesn’t yet have signed VirtIO drivers for the vsock communication mechanism that Incus normally relies on for communication with its agent.
Thankfully the protocol we use over vsock is HTTPS so we were able to just use a direct HTTPS connection (over the network) to the VM instead. This works only if Incus knows the IP address of the Windows VM and if that IP address is directly reachable from the Incus host. In time we hope to replace this with a native vsock connection.
As far as supported features, it’s possible to run commands through incus exec, get OS details with incus info and transfer files with incus file.
Getting it working typically involves adding a source=agent:config disk device to the Windows VM, which then provides a cd-rom drive that includes the Windows agent (if the host distribution packaged it) as well as the needed configuration files.
From that point, you can either manually start the agent directly from there or can manually add a system service.
We’d happily welcome help from folks with Windows experience who can help with polishing that experience, possibly through an install powershell script we could include in the cd-rom drive as well as work on the Windows build of the agent itself to make it to full parity with its Linux equivalent.
This multi-month effort was made possible through funding from the Sovereign Tech Fund.
Improvements to incus-migrate
Quite a few improvements have gone into our standalone incus-migrate tool.
As a reminder, this tool can be run on a remote server which should itself be converted to an Incus container or VM or is running existing containers or VMs that should be imported into Incus.
With this release, incus-migrate now gains support for:
- Uploading filesystem trees or disk images as new custom volumes
- Importing additional disks or filesystem as part of creating a new instance
- Importing an OVA image as a new instance
- Selecting a specific server or cluster group when the Incus server is a cluster
Static builds of incus-migrate can be found on Github, those are useful when converting a system which isn’t itself running Incus.
SFTP on custom volumes
We are slowly trying to get custom storage volumes (those of the filesystem variety) to support a similar file API as we have for instances.
As the first step towards that, Incus now supports SFTP operations on those volumes which for now means the incus storage volume file mount command. The remaining APIs and commands should make their appearance in Incus 6.14.
This work was done by students at the University of Texas in Austin.
Configurable instance external IP address on OVN networks
Two new instance NIC config keys have been added:
ipv4.address.externalipv6.address.external
Those can be used to configure what IP address an instance should be using for instance-initiated egress traffic. Typically that’s either the network’s external address (default) or it can be set to a network forward address which is pointing to the instance.
Documentation: Type: nic - Incus documentation
This work was done by students at the University of Texas in Austin.
Ability to pin gateway MAC address on OVN networks
OVN manages a list of MAC bindings, that is, the mapping between an IP address and its MAC address (equivalent to ARP or NDP table). This typically gets populated the first time OVN needs to interact with a given address and is then persisted in its database.
This isn’t always ideal as networks operating with VRRP or similar virtual MAC addresses may want to pre-configure the expected MAC address for a gateway and have it be kept persistent by OVN.
This is now possible through two new configuration keys which can be set on an OVN uplink network of type physical:
ipv4.gateway.hwaddripv6.gateway.hwaddr
Documentation: Physical network - Incus documentation
This work was done by students at the University of Texas in Austin.
Clock handling in virtual machines
Incus now automatically sets the invtsc QEMU option on virtual machines that aren’t expected to be migrated.
Additionally, Incus also now listens for RTC events coming out of QEMU in an effort to persist the VM’s RTC clock. This should allow for better handling of Windows VMs as well as other VMs which do not rely on a UTC hardware clock.
New get-client-certificate and get-client-token commands
The CLI has new incus remote get-client-certificate and incus remote get-client-token commands which should help with scripting by making it easy to extract the client certificate or issue a JWT from the client certificate.
This work was done by students at the University of Texas in Austin.
DHCPv6 support for OCI
The built-in DHCP client used for OCI containers is now capable of both stateful and stateless DHCPv6.
This work was done by students at the University of Texas in Austin.
Network host tables configuration for routed NICs
Incus has supported controlling what routing table to put the routes for the routed NIC devices but this was lacking a bit on flexibility.
Instead we now have a couple of new configuration keys:
ipv4.host_tablesipv6.host_tables
Which can take a comma separated list of tables to put the routes into.
Documentation: Type: nic - Incus documentation
This work was done by students at the University of Texas in Austin.
Support for split image publishing
Up till now, when running incus publish, the resulting image would always be of the unified variety. That is, a single file, typically a compressed tarball which would then include both the root disk as well as the Incus configuration.
But now we have support for generating split images instead, resulting in two files, one for the Incus-specific metadata and one for the root disk data.
In the CLI, this is controlled by passing --format=split to incus publish.
This work was done by students at the University of Texas in Austin.
Preseed of certificates
An Incus server preseed can now include certificates.
This looks like:
certificates:
- type: client
name: my-client
certificate: |-
PEM ENCODED CERTIFICATE
This feature is particularly useful when automatically provisioning systems like Incus OS.
This work was done by students at the University of Texas in Austin.
Configuration of list format
The Incus CLI configuration file (typically at ~/.config/incus/config.yml) can now be used to select a preferred list output format.
An example would be:
defaults:
list_format: compact
Which would be equivalent to passing --format=compact to all list commands.
This work was done by students at the University of Texas in Austin.
Add aliases for create/add, delete/remove/rm
The Incus CLI has been designed so that:
- An object with significant state associated with it must be
createdand then bedeleted - An object or relation with no or little state will be
addedand then beremoved
This is meant to convey some of the risk associated with a specific action but it can also give a sense of lack of consistency and make it a bit harder to script incus.
To address that, we’ve now added a bunch of aliases to the CLI so you’re a lot more likely to find the command that you want.
This work was done by students at the University of Texas in Austin.
Conversion of manual DB functions to our database code generator
The Incus codebase includes a code generator for database access functions.
This is quite useful to ensure consistency in behavior and avoid a number of easy mistakes that can be made when manually writing database queries.
While it’s a de-facto requirement that all new database tables use the generator, we’ve still got quite a few objects that aren’t using it yet.
With this release, we’ve now completed the migration of the following objects over to generated functions:
- Network ACLs
- Network load balancers
- Network zones
While all our tests are passing, this kind of refactoring has a high risk of indroducing some subtle regressions. Should you notice any odd change in behavior with any of those object on Incus 6.13, please file an issue so we can investigate.
This work was done by students at the University of Texas in Austin.
Server side filtering
This release continues in our effort to use server-side filtering whenever possible throughout Incus.
We now have it supported for:
incus network listincus storage bucket listincus project listincus config trust list
This work was done by students at the University of Texas in Austin.
Code generated documentation
We’re also continuing in our effort to implement automatically generated documentation everywhere configuration keys are involved. With this release, we now have generated documentation for:
- PCI devices
- OVN networks
- Physical networks
- SR-IOV networks
- Macvlan networks
This work was done by students at the University of Texas in Austin.
OS metrics integrated with Incus metrics on Incus OS
When running Incus on Incus OS, the host metrics (from node-exporter) are now automatically included within the Incus metrics API.
That’s done because Incus OS is trying to limit the number of open ports as much as possible and have all traffic be authenticated and authorized through a single stack (Incus itself).
Note for packagers
We moved from using the external umoci command to using it as a Go package instead.
To get the new Windows agent support, the agent also needs to be built for Windows and be made available to Incus alongside the regular Linux one.
