Acknowledgements
We would like to thank all contributors and users for their feedback and support. Special thanks to Jacob Carlborg for his ongoing efforts and contributions to this release.
For a detailed list of changes, please refer to the changelog on our repository.
Support for macOS runners has been deprecated and will be removed in a future
release. The reason for using macOS runners in the past has been because of
the support for hardware accelerated nested virtualization using the
Hypervisor framework. Since the creation of this action, the Ubuntu runners
have been upgraded with better performance and added support for hardware
accelerated nested virtualization using KVM. QEMU is also more stable when
using KVM compared to the Hypervisor framework. Please use the
ubuntu-latest runner instead.
The Xhyve hypervisor has been deprecated and will be removed in a future
release. QEMU will be the only available hypervisor. The reason being
maintenance of the Xhyve hypervisor seemed to have stopped. It's also
starting to become next to impossible to build on later versions of macOS.
Please switch to the QEMU hypervisor by switching to the ubuntu-latest
runner.
The hypervisor input parameter has been deprecated will be removed in a
future release. The reason being support for the Xhyve hypervisor has been
deprecated, making this input parameter redundant. Please remove the use of
the hypervisor input parameter and switch to the ubuntu-latest runner.
