# Changelog

## [v0.12.2]

### Fixed
- [[#251]](https://github.com/rust-vmm/vm-memory/pull/251): Inserted checks
  that verify that the value returned by `VolatileMemory::get_slice` is of
  the correct length.

### Deprecated
- [[#244]](https://github.com/rust-vmm/vm-memory/pull/241) Deprecate volatile
  memory's `as_ptr()` interfaces. The new interfaces to be used instead are:
  `ptr_guard()` and `ptr_guard_mut()`.

## [v0.12.1]

### Fixed
- [[#241]](https://github.com/rust-vmm/vm-memory/pull/245) mmap_xen: Don't drop
  the FileOffset while in use #245

## [v0.12.0]

### Added
- [[#241]](https://github.com/rust-vmm/vm-memory/pull/241) Add Xen memory
  mapping support: Foreign and Grant. Add new API for accessing pointers to
  volatile slices, as `as_ptr()` can't be used with Xen's Grant mapping.
- [[#237]](https://github.com/rust-vmm/vm-memory/pull/237) Implement `ByteValued` for `i/u128`.

## [v0.11.0]

### Added
- [[#216]](https://github.com/rust-vmm/vm-memory/pull/216) Add `GuestRegionMmap::from_region`.

### Fixed
- [[#217]](https://github.com/rust-vmm/vm-memory/pull/217) Fix vm-memory internally
  taking rust-style slices to guest memory in ways that could potentially cause 
  undefined behavior. Removes/deprecates various `as_slice`/`as_slice_mut` methods
  whose usage violated rust's aliasing rules, as well as an unsound 
  `impl<'a> VolatileMemory for &'a mut [u8]`.

## [v0.10.0]

### Changed
- [[#208]](https://github.com/rust-vmm/vm-memory/issues/208) Updated
  vmm-sys-util dependency to v0.11.0
- [[#203]](https://github.com/rust-vmm/vm-memory/pull/203) Switched to Rust
  edition 2021.

## [v0.9.0]

### Fixed

- [[#195]](https://github.com/rust-vmm/vm-memory/issues/195):
  `mmap::check_file_offset` is doing the correct size validation for block and
  char devices as well.

### Changed

- [[#198]](https://github.com/rust-vmm/vm-memory/pull/198): atomic: enable 64
  bit atomics on ppc64le and s390x.
- [[#200]](https://github.com/rust-vmm/vm-memory/pull/200): docs: enable all
  features in `docs.rs`.
- [[#199]](https://github.com/rust-vmm/vm-memory/issues/199): Update the way
  the dependencies are pulled such that we don't end up with incompatible
  versions.

## [v0.8.0]

### Fixed

- [[#190]](https://github.com/rust-vmm/vm-memory/pull/190):
  `VolatileSlice::read/write` when input slice is empty.

## [v0.7.0]

### Changed

- [[#176]](https://github.com/rust-vmm/vm-memory/pull/176): Relax the trait
  bounds of `Bytes` auto impl for `T: GuestMemory`
- [[#178]](https://github.com/rust-vmm/vm-memory/pull/178):
  `MmapRegion::build_raw` no longer requires that the length of the region is a
  multiple of the page size.

   `GuestMemory::with_regions_mut()`, `GuestMemory::map_and_fold()`.

## [v0.5.0]
