Security

  • Now the io.containers.capabilities LABEL in an image can be an empty string.

Features

  • New command set: podman farm [create,list,remove,update] has been created to "farm" out builds to machines running Podman for different architectures.
  • New command: podman compose as a thin wrapper around an external compose provider such as docker-compose or podman-compose.
  • FreeBSD: podman run --device is now supported.
  • Linux: Add a new --module flag for Podman.
  • Podmansh: Timeout is now configurable using the podmansh_timeout option in containers.conf.
  • SELinux: Add support for confined users to create containers but restrict them from creating privileged containers.
  • WSL: Registers shared socket bindings on Windows, to allow other WSL distributions easy remote access (#15190).
  • WSL: Enabling user-mode-networking on older WSL2 generations will now detect an error with upgrade guidance.
  • The podman build command now supports two new options: --layer-label and --cw.
  • The podman kube generate command now supports generation of k8s DaemonSet kind (#18899).
  • The podman kube generate and podman kube play commands now support the k8s TerminationGracePeriodSeconds field (RH BZ#2218061).

  • The podman generate kube command now supports a --podman-only flag to allow podman-only reserved annotations to be used in the generated YAML file. These annotations cannot be used by Kubernetes.
  • The podman kube generate now supports a --no-trunc flag that supports YAML files with annotations longer than 63 characters. Warning: if an annotation is longer than 63 chars, then the generated yaml file is not Kubernetes compatible.
  • An infra name annotation io.podman.annotations.infra.name is added in the generated yaml when the pod create command has --infra-name set. This annotation can also be used with kube play when wanting to customize the infra container name (#18312).
  • The syntax of --uidmap and --gidmap has been extended to lookup the parent user namespace and to extend default mappings (#18333).
  • The podman kube commands now support the List kind (#19052).
  • The podman kube play command now supports environment variables in kube.yaml (#15983).
  • The podman push and podman manifest push commands now support the --force-compression optionto prevent reusing other blobs (#18860).
  • The podman manifest push command now supports --add-compression to push with compressed variants.
  • The podman manifest push command now honors the add_compression field from containers.conf if --add-compression is not set.
  • The podman run and podman create --mount commands now support the ramfs type (#19659).
  • When running under systemd (e.g., via Quadlet), Podman will extend the start timeout in 30 second steps up to a maximum of 5 minutes when pulling an image.
  • The --add-host option now accepts the special string host-gateway instead of an IP Address, which will be mapped to the host IP address.
  • The podman generate systemd command is deprecated. Use Quadlet for running containers and pods under systemd.
  • The podman secret rm command now supports an --ignore option.
  • The --env-file option now supports multiline variables (#18724).
  • The --read-only-tmpfs flag now affects /dev and /dev/shm as well as /run, /tmp, /var/tmp (#12937).
  • The Podman --mount option now supports bind mounts passed as globs.
  • The --mount option can now be specified in containers.conf using the mounts field.

  • There is now a new --sdnotify=healthy policy where Podman sends the READY message once the container turns healthy (#6160).
  • Temporary files created when dealing with images in /var/tmp will automatically be cleaned up on reboot.
  • There is now a new filter option since for podman volume ls and podman volume prune (#19228).
  • The podman inspect command now has tab-completion support (#18672).

  • Pulling from an oci transport will use the optional name for naming the image.
