=head2 Нові можливості

New I<--block-driver> option which can be used to choose to install either virtio-blk or virtio-scsi drivers (Andrey Drobyshev).

The virt-v2v I<--key> option now recognizes LVM names like F</dev/mapper/rhel_bootp--73--75--123-root> (Laszlo Ersek).

The I<--key> option also supports a new S<I<--key all:...>> selector to try the same key on all devices.

=head2 Feature removed

Support for RHEL 3 conversions has been removed.

=head2 Інші виправлення

Conversions now set the C<host-model> CPU in the output metadata, except where the source hypervisor overrides this.  The exception is I<-o qemu> mode which uses I<-cpu host>.  (Thanks Ming Xie, Laszlo Ersek, Dr. David Alan Gilbert, Daniel Berrangé)

virt-v2v will now look for bootloader configuration in F</boot/grub/grub.cfg> for UEFI guests (Andrey Drobyshev).

Invoke pnputil (if available) to install drivers, fixing some Windows conversions (Andrey Drobyshev).

Skip SELinux relabelling if the guest has disabled SELinux (Roman Kagan).

Several output modes now generate metadata to indicate whether the guest requires the RTC to be set to UTC (Linux) or localtime (most Windows).  For example with I<-o libvirt> this generates S<E<lt>clock offset="utc|localtime"/E<gt>>.  (Thanks Lee Garrett, Laszlo Ersek)

I<-i ova> mode is now less strict about parsing the manifest file, which helps when converting some non-conforming OVA files.

Input modes using I<-it ssh> now use the correct quoting (thanks Bill Sanders, Laszlo Ersek).

I<-i vmx> mode now rejects VMDK files explicitly, reducing a source of user confusion (thanks Ming Xie).

Multiple fixes to I<-o kubevirt> mode.  Also implement I<-oo compressed> for this mode.  (Thanks Xiaodai Wang, Ming Xie)

I<-o libvirt> mode now supports Rocky Linux (thanks Ming Xie).

I<-o openstack> documentation for cloud configurations fixed (thanks Ming Xie).

I<-o rhv-upload> mode has an improved error when the I<-os> parameter is invalid or missing (thanks Junqin Zhou).

=head2 Зміни у збиранні

Support for OCaml 5, and OCaml E<ge> 4.07 is now the minimum (thanks Guillaume Munch-Maccagnoni, Jerry James, Josh Berdine, Jürgen Hötzel, Vincent Laviron).

Fix several tests so they can handle the case where the operating system does not support btrfs or NTFS, instead of failing (Laszlo Ersek).

Fix compatibility issues with libxml2 2.12.

=head2 Внутрішня частина роботи програми

Fix an off-by-one error which caused very rare crashes in virt-v2v.
