Changes in this release
==================

## New device-types

New supported devices:

* acer-cbv514-1h-34uz-brya
* acer-chromebox-cxi4-puff
* acer-cp514-3wh-r0qs-guybrush
* b-u585i-iot02a
* stm32mp15x-eval

## Deploy and boot methods

### FVP

Under some rare circumstances some FVP model can enter an infinite loop of
printing again and again the same lines. This was preventing LAVA to cleanup
correctly and was leaking a running model inside it's docker container.
Starting from this release, LAVA will cleanup the container correctly.

### uuu

Distinguish between normal timeout and abnormal exit when running serial
download check.

## lava-dispatcher-host package

Add support to install and use `lava-dispatcher-host` on Ubuntu 20.10 and
22.04. Also fix device sharing on Debian Bookworm.

## lava-publisher

lava-publisher is now listening on /ws/v1/healthz endpoint and returns a 200
status code. This can be used to check lava-publisher health.

## LAVA events

websocket events are not authenticated. When connecting to the websocket
stream, you will only receive events for devices that you can access. Use the
latest lavacli release to send authenticated websocket requests.

## Performances

The performance of the server part has been improved on multiple pages. Loading
the corresponding pages should be way quicker now.

## PostgreSQL

Starting from 2023.02, LAVA will set a default value of 600 to `CONN_MAX_AGE`,
enabling persistent database connection. This is recommended by Django and
should improve the performances.
