Summary
ch-6.12.8-kernel-1.6-202603301Testing
go test ./lib/system/...was attempted in this checkout but is not runnable here because the repo is missing the embedded guest agent artifact and the init package expects Linux syscallsdeftconfirmed this kernel enables Docker bridge/NAT support needed for in-VM Docker networkingNote
Medium Risk
Changes the default Cloud Hypervisor kernel used for new instances, which can impact boot and networking behavior across the fleet. Added coverage is a manual, environment-gated integration test, so regressions may still slip through CI.
Overview
Updates Hypeman’s default Cloud Hypervisor kernel to
ch-6.12.8-kernel-1.6-202603301, keeping prior kernel versions supported while adding the new kernel and header download URLs.Adds a Linux-only, environment-gated integration test (
docker_integration_linux_test.go) that boots a VM with an attached ext4 volume, installs and starts Docker using the volume for/var/lib/docker, and validatesoverlay2, container execution, and port publishing via annginxcontainer.Written by Cursor Bugbot for commit 4cc2c97.
