v1.4.8

Compare Source

OpenBSD on ubuntu-26.04 runners

The action's test matrix now runs on ubuntu-26.04 and ubuntu-26.04-arm:
113 of 114 jobs pass, and the 9p job is skipped as before.

What failed on 26.04

With v1.4.7 on a 26.04 runner:

  • Every riscv64 job stopped at

    Error: QEMU binary 'qemu-system-riscv64' not found (searched PATH
    and common install locations).

    Since Ubuntu 25.10 the riscv64 emulator ships in a separate
    qemu-system-riscv package, no longer in qemu-system-misc.

x86_64, aarch64 and sparc64 were not affected.

Fixes

  • The action installs qemu-system-riscv instead of qemu-system-misc
    for riscv64 on Ubuntu releases newer than 24.04.

The package fix engages only on Ubuntu releases newer than 24.04, so
jobs on ubuntu-24.04 run as before. The rest of anyvm 0.7.2's 26.04
work:
https://github.com/anyvm-org/anyvm/releases/tag/v0.7.2

Fixed: a lost network probe no longer fails as "Unsupported OS"

vmactions/freebsd-vm#163: a job failed after three minutes with

Error: Unsupported OS: freebsd. Builder repository
anyvm-org/freebsd-builder not found.

although the image exists. A single failed probe of the release download
URL sent the run down the GitHub REST API. The action never passed a
token, so that request was unauthenticated and shared the 60/hour per-IP
limit with every other job on the runner IP; the 403 was retried for
three minutes and then reported as an unsupported OS. This action took
the same path. Two changes close it:

  • New input: token. It defaults to github.token and is handed to the
    VM runtime, so the release lookup is authenticated (1000 requests
    per hour per repository instead of 60 shared). Nothing to change in
    your workflow; set it only if you want a different token.
  • anyvm 0.7.1: the release-URL probe retries transient failures and
    only a 404 means the image is absent; a rate-limited 403 or a 429
    stops the retry loop at once and reports the reset time; "the API
    could not be asked" and "this repository does not exist" are
    distinct outcomes, so a connectivity failure is reported as one; and
    the Authorization header no longer follows a cross-host redirect.

Also

  • anyvm 0.6.8: image downloads survive a CDN outage. Retries now back
    off over about a minute instead of five tries two seconds apart,
    which a half-minute GitHub 504 burst on 2026-08-31 outlasted. A 404
    still stops at once.
  • anyvm 0.6.8: a guest key that failed to download now fails the run
    at once, instead of booting a VM nobody can log in to and timing out
    thirteen minutes later.
  • anyvm 0.6.8: QEMU no longer prints a driftfix warning on every
    launch of an aarch64, riscv64 or sparc64 guest.
