This is DRAFT of release notes

aptly 1.1.0 release is following (a bit late) scheduled every 3 months release of aptly.

Custom Filesystem Publishing

aptly supported configuring number of S3 and Swift publishing endpoints for a long time, but local filesystem publishing was limited to default directory ~/.aptly/public and hardlinking files. There was number of requests to allow use of symlinks or file copy to support publishing to different filesystems and shared locations like NFS.

With PR #521 from @seeraven aptly supports configuration of custom filesystem endpoints. Each endpoint has its own filesystem root, it might support either hardlinks, symlinks or simple file copy to reference files from aptly internal package pool.

Talos on Firecracker

Build Firecracker from source (it's fast and easy, builds in docker): https://github.com/firecracker-microvm/firecracker/blob/master/docs/getting-started.md#building-from-source
Adjust /dev/kvm permissions: https://github.com/firecracker-microvm/firecracker/blob/master/docs/getting-started.md#prerequisites
Build Talos, you will need build/vmlinux & build/initramfs.xz.
Prepare configs for Talos: osctl config generate fire https://172.16.0.2:6443. Make following changes to the config: add resolvers to the machine.network config: nameservers: ["8.8.8.8", "1.1.1.1"] (IP config will come from kernel args), update install location: install: disk: /dev/vda (default is sda).

Problem

While running Go 1.14 inside docker, you might hit error:

runtime: increase the mlock limit (ulimit -l)

Solution

kexec

syscalls

Load new kernel + initrd from files:
- kexec_file_load
- Go syscall
Call reboot with LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_KEXEC:

	package main

	import (
	"github.com/syndtr/goleveldb/leveldb"
	"github.com/syndtr/goleveldb/leveldb/storage"
	"log"
	)

	func main() {
	stor, err := storage.OpenFile("/Users/smira/.aptly/db/")

	db1.* - initial database after creation
	db2.* - after compaction
	db3.* - dropped CURRENT file, after recover, some keys lost
	db4.* - after recover without compaction, all keys present
