Hello all,

Hey,

We are once again looking to increase the minimum and next minimum versions of libvirt and QEMU in the libvirt virt driver.

These were previously increased late in the Victoria cycle:

MIN_LIBVIRT_VERSION = (5, 0, 0) MIN_QEMU_VERSION = (4, 0, 0)

NEXT_MIN_LIBVIRT_VERSION = (6, 0, 0) NEXT_MIN_QEMU_VERSION = (4, 2, 0)

libvirt: Bump MIN_{LIBVIRT,QEMU}_VERSION and NEXT_MIN_{LIBVIRT,QEMU}_VERSION https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/746981

I am now proposing the following updates to these versions in Wallaby:

MIN_LIBVIRT_VERSION = (6, 0, 0) MIN_QEMU_VERSION = (4, 2, 0)

NEXT_MIN_LIBVIRT_VERSION = (7, 0, 0) NEXT_MIN_QEMU_VERSION = (5, 2, 0)

libvirt: Bump MIN_{LIBVIRT,QEMU}_VERSION and NEXT_MIN_{LIBVIRT,QEMU}_VERSION https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/754700

libvirt v6.0.0 and QEMU 4.2.0 being supported by the three LTS releases supported by the Wallaby release of OpenStack [1][2].

libvirt v7.0.0 and QEMU 5.2.0 being slightly aspirational for the next minimum versions at this point but given current releases for both projects they seem appropriate for the time being.

Yeah, v7.0.0. is fine — it's only one year further (released: Jan 2021) from v6.0.0 (released: Jan 2020).

Please let me know ideally in the review if there are any issues with this increase.

Looks fine to me. Thanks!
