Backport: Changelog v1.6.0

[deckhouse-BOaTswain]

Changelog v1.6.0

Features

• [api] Added support for attaching USB devices to virtual machines using the .spec.usbDevices field. Introduced the NodeUSBDevice and USBDevice resources for managing USB devices within the cluster:
  • NodeUSBDevice (cluster-scoped): represents a USB device discovered on a specific node. Allows assigning a USB device for use in a specific namespace.
  • USBDevice (namespace-scoped): represents a USB device available for attachment to virtual machines in a given namespace. #1913
• [module] Enabled DVCR cleanup in clusters by default: daily at 02:00. You can override the schedule via dvcr.gc.schedule in the virtualization module ModuleConfig. #2019
• [module] Added information about virtual machine pods to the virtual machine dashboard. #2002
• [module] Added the Virtualization / Overview dashboard with an overview of the virtualization platform status. #1956

Fixes

• [vd] Fixed virtual disks hanging during creation in WaitForFirstConsumer mode on nodes with taints. #1999
• [vm] If only the Main network is specified in .spec.networks, the sdn module is no longer required. #2027
• [vm] Labels and annotations now work properly on virtual machines. #1971
• [vm] Fixed virtual machine migration with disks attached via VirtualMachineBlockDeviceAttachment (hotplug): the target pod could exceed memory limits (OOMKilled). #1947
• [vmbda] Fixed an incorrect Pending phase for the VirtualMachineBlockDeviceAttachment resource during virtual machine migration. #2011
• [vmbda] To remove disks and images attached to a virtual machine via VirtualMachineBlockDeviceAttachment (hotplug), you must first detach them from the virtual machine by deleting the corresponding vmbda. This information has been added to the vmbda status. #2000

Chore

• [vm] Added the --from-file flag to the vlctl utility for viewing domain information from a local libvirt XML file. #2014
