r151050 release repository: https://pkg.omnios.org/r151050/core

Upgrade Notes

Upgrades are supported from the r151046 and r151048 releases only. If upgrading from an earlier version, upgrade in stages, referring to the table at https://omnios.org/upgrade.

New features since r151048

System Features

  • Python 3 has been updated to version 3.12.

  • Perl has been updated to version 5.38.

  • SMB1 is disabled by default, the new default minimum SMB protocol version is 2.1. SMB1 can be re-enabled if necessary using sharectl, for example:

    sharectl set -p min_protocol=1 smb

  • Support for the xenl terminal feature has been implemented. Also known as eat_newline_glitch, this allows a newline after 80 columns to be ignored which can improve the rendering of some terminal programs.

  • Kernel statistics (kstats) for PCIe native hotplug events have been added.

Commands and Command Options

  • OpenJDK 21 has been added.

  • The -n and -o options to pgrep would previously print the wrong process arguments. This has been corrected.

  • The pcieadm command can now decode readiness time reporting information.

Libraries and Library Functions

  • A new libnvme.so library is available allowing better programmatic access to NVMe drives. The nvmeadm CLI utility has been re-implemented in terms of this library and has been extended with additional options for formatting output, accessing vendor-specific log pages and more. See the manual for more details.

  • The system C library now provides execvpe(2) and fexecve(2) functions.

  • The static version of the ncurses library, libncurses.a is no longer shipped.

  • getaddrinfo(3socket) now works correctly with socktype 0 and the AI_NUMERICSERV option.

  • libpsl, the C library for the Public Suffix List, is now available and used by packages such as curl.

  • Man pages for libjedec(3jedec) are now available.

  • A Generic SPD decoding library is now available.

LX zones

  • Support for getsockopt(TCP_INFO) has been added.

Bhyve

  • The bhyve UEFI bootrom has been updated to the 202308 stable version of EDK-II.

ZFS

  • The minimum size of the ARC has been reduced, allowing it to better shrink as necessary on systems with a lot of RAM.

  • ZFS scrubs now pause when system memory is low, and resume automatically afterwards.

Hardware Support

  • The Intel I219 V17 and LM+V24-27 and LM+V24-29 network adapter variants are now supported.

  • A new igc driver supporting the Intel I225/226 adapters has been added.

  • A virtio random driver has been added, viorand.

  • A virtio SCSI driver (vioscsi) is now available and included in the default system installation.

  • Emulex LPe35000/LPe36000 32Gb/64Gb fibre channel chipsets are now supported.

  • QLogic 16Gb FC-HBA 7288 is now supported.

  • Support for the Microsemi SmartPQI HBA has been added.

  • ATTO Celerity FC-162E Gen 5 and Celerity FC-162P Gen 6 16GB FC cards are now supported.

  • A new lmrc driver has been added, supporting the Aero and Ventura generations of MegaRAID SAS controllers.

  • NVMe drives based on the Phison E18 controller that have certain quirks now show up and can be used.

  • Calibration of the system clock under KVM and other hypervisors now uses information from the hypervisor and avoids trying to use the legacy PIT which is known to be broken with some cloud providers.

  • Improved support for AMD Zen4 systems.

Virtualisation

  • Hyper-V Gen2 VMs now have better support including a display and keyboard driver. Previously these were only useable with a serial console.

Developer Features

  • The system disassembler has been extended to support more AVX-512 and other newer instructions.

  • The speed of the system linker when confronted with objects containing a large number of symbols has been significantly improved.

  • mdb has gained a ::mutex command for displaying user-level mutexes.

  • mdb has gained a ::vmm command for inspecting bhyve virtual machines.

  • mdb has also gained a ::tdelta command to display time deltas, and the ::msgbuf command has a new -t flag to include time deltas in the output.

Deprecated features

  • The grub boot loader is deprecated and has been removed in the r151048 release. It will be supported in r151046 for the full LTS time frame, up to May 2026. If you have not yet migrated to the new boot loader, and would like assistance, please get in touch.

  • OpenSSL 1.0.x and 1.1.1 are deprecated and reached end-of-support at the end of 2019 and in September 2023 respectively. OmniOS has transitioned to OpenSSL 3 and still ships older versions for backwards compatibility, but these are maintained solely on a best-efforts basis. If possible, recompile software to use OpenSSL 3.

  • Python 2 is now end-of-life and will not receive any further updates. The python-27 package is still available for backwards compatibility but will be maintained only on a best-efforts basis.

  • OpenSSH in OmniOS no longer provides support for GSSAPI key exchange. This was removed in release r151038.
