Talos 1.9.0-alpha.0 (2024-10-18)
Welcome to the v1.9.0-alpha.0 release of Talos!
This is a pre-release of Talos
Please try out the release binaries and report any issues at
https://github.com/siderolabs/talos/issues.
talosctl cgroups
The talosctl cgroups command has been added to the talosctl tool.
This command allows you to view the cgroup resource consumption and limits for a machine, e.g.
talosctl cgroups --preset memory.
udevd
Talos previously used udevd to provide udevd, now it uses systemd-udevd instead.
Component Updates
Linux: 6.6.57
containerd: 2.0.0-rc.5
Flannel: 0.25.7
Talos is built with Go 1.23.2.

v1.8.0
Talos 1.8.0 (2024-09-23)
Welcome to the v1.8.0 release of Talos!
Starting with Talos v1.8.0, only standard assets would be published as github release assets. These include:
cloud-images.jsontalosctlbinarieskernelinitramfsmetaliso and disk imagestalosctl-cni-bundle
All other release assets can be downloaded from Image Factory.
Please try out the release binaries and report any issues at
https://github.com/siderolabs/talos/issues.
Node Annotations
Talos Linux now supports configuring Kubernetes node annotations via machine configuration (.machine.nodeAnnotations) in a way similar to node labels.
Workload Apparmor Profile
Talos Linux can now apply the default AppArmor profiles to all workloads started via containerd, if the machine is installed with the AppArmor LSM enforced via the extraKernelArgs.
Eg:
machine:
install:
extraKernelArgs:
- security=apparmorBridge Interface
Talos Linux now support configuring 'vlan_filtering' for bridge interfaces.
Machine Configuration via Kernel Command Line
Talos Linux supports supplying zstd-compressed, base64-encoded machine configuration small documents via the kernel command line parameter talos.config.inline.
CNI Plugins
Talos Linux now bundles by default the following standard CNI plugins:
bridgefirewallflannelhost-localloopbackportmap
The Talos bundled Flannel manifest was simplified to remove the install-cni step.
Accessing /dev/net/tun in Kubernetes Pods
Talos Linux ships with runc 1.2, which drops legacy rule to expose /dev/net/tun devices by default in the container.
If you need to access /dev/net/tun in your Kubernetes pods (e.g. running Tailscale as a Kubernetes pod), you can add use device plugins to expose /dev/net/tun to the pod.
Diagnostics
Talos Linux now shows diagnostics information for common problems related to misconfiguration via talosctl health and Talos dashboard.
Disk Management
Talos Linux now supports configuration for the EPHEMERAL volume.
Extensions in Kubernetes Nodes
Talos Linux now publishes list of installed extensions as Kubernetes node labels/annotations.
The key format is extensions.talos.dev/<name> and the value is the extension version.
If the extension name is not valid as a label key, it will be skipped.
If the extension version is a valid label value, it will be put to the label; otherwise it will be put to the annotation.
For Talos machines booted of the Image Factory artifacts, this means that the schematic ID will be published as the annotation
extensions.talos.dev/schematic (as it is longer than 63 characters).
DNS Forwarding for CoreDNS pods
Usage of the host DNS resolver as upstream for Kubernetes CoreDNS pods is now enabled by default. You can disable it
with:
machine:
features:
hostDNS:
enabled: true
forwardKubeDNSToHost: falsePlease note that on running cluster you will have to kill CoreDNS pods for this change to apply.
The IP address used to forward DNS queries has changed to the fixed 169.254.116.108 address.
For those upgrading from Talos 1.7 with forwardKubeDNSToHost enabled, the old Kubernetes service
can be cleaned up with kubectl delete -n kube-system service host-dns.
Installer
Talos Linux installer now never wipes the system disk on upgrades, which means that the flag
--preserve is always set for talosctl upgrade.
talos.halt_if_installed kernel argument
Starting with Talos 1.8, ISO's generated from Boot Assets would have a new kernel argument talos.halt_if_installed which would pause the boot sequence until boot timeout if Talos is already installed on the disk.
ISO generated for pre 1.8 versions would not have this kernel argument.
This can be also explicitly enabled by setting talos.halt_if_installed=1 in kernel argument.
Slim Kubelet Image
Kubelet container image includes various utilities that kubelet might use to perform various tasks.
Starting with Kubernetes 1.31.0, kubelet image now includes less utilities, as the in-tree CSI plugins were
removed in Kubernetes 1.31.0. This reduces kubelet image size and potential attack surface.
For Kubernetes < 1.31.0, there will be two images built:
v1.x.y(default, fat)v1.x.y-slim(slim)
For Kubernetes >= 1.31.0, there will be same two images built, but the
default tag would point to slim image:
v1.x.y(default, slim)v1.x.y-fat(fat)
KubeSpan
Extra announced endpoints can be added using the KubespanEndpointsConfig document.
Default Node Labels
Talos Linux on config generation now adds a label node.kubernetes.io/exclude-from-external-load-balancers by default for the control plane nodes.
PCI Devices
A list of PCI devices can now be obtained via PCIDevices resource, e.g. talosctl get pcidevices.
Metal images
Starting with Talos 1.8, console=ttyS0 kernel argument is removed from the metal images and installer. If running virtualized in QEMU (For eg: Proxmox), this can be added as an extra kernel argument if needed via Image Factory or using Imager.
This should fix slow boot or no console output issues on most bare metal hardware.
NVIDIA GPU Support
Starting with Talos 1.8.0, SideroLabs would ships extensions for both LTS and Production versions of NVIDIA extensions.
For more details see the CHANGELOG of extensions.
Upgrades with an exisiting schematic id from Image Factory would keep the existing LTS version of the NVIDIA extension.
Removing parts of the configuration using $patch: delete syntax
Talos Linux now supports removing parts of the configuration using the $patch: delete syntax similar to the kubernetes.
More information can be found here.
Platform Support
Talos Linux now supports Apache CloudStack platform.
kube-proxy
Talos Linux configures kube-proxy >= v1.31.0 to use 'nftables' backend by default.
Secure Boot
Talos Linux now can optionally include well-known UEFI (Microsoft) SecureBoot keys into the auto-enrollment UEFI database.
Custom Trusted Roots
Talos Linux now supports adding custom trusted roots (CA certificates) via TrustedRootsConfig configuration documents.
Device Extra Settle Timeout
Talos Linux now supports a kernel command line argument talos.device.settle_time=3m to set the device extra settle timeout to workaround issues with broken drivers.
Component Updates
Kubernetes: 1.31.1
Linux: 6.6.52
containerd: 2.0.0-rc.4
runc: 1.2.0-rc.3
etcd: 3.5.16
Flannel: 0.25.6
Flannel CNI plugin: 1.5.1
CoreDNS: 1.1.13
Talos is built with Go 1.22.7.
ZSTD Compression
Talos Linux now compresses kernel and initramfs using ZSTD.
Linux arm64 kernel is now compressed (previously it was uncompressed).

Talos 1.8.0-beta.1 (2024-09-16)
Welcome to the v1.8.0-beta.1 release of Talos!
This is a pre-release of Talos
Starting with Talos v1.8.0, only standard assets would be published as github release assets. These include:
cloud-images.jsontalosctlbinarieskernelinitramfsmetaliso and disk imagestalosctl-cni-bundle
All other release assets can be downloaded from Image Factory.
Please try out the release binaries and report any issues at
https://github.com/siderolabs/talos/issues.
Node Annotations
Talos Linux now supports configuring Kubernetes node annotations via machine configuration (.machine.nodeAnnotations) in a way similar to node labels.
Workload Apparmor Profile
Talos Linux can now apply the default AppArmor profiles to all workloads started via containerd, if the machine is installed with the AppArmor LSM enforced via the extraKernelArgs.
Eg:
machine:
install:
extraKernelArgs:
- security=apparmorBridge Interface
Talos Linux now support configuring 'vlan_filtering' for bridge interfaces.
Machine Configuration via Kernel Command Line
Talos Linux supports supplying zstd-compressed, base64-encoded machine configuration small documents via the kernel command line parameter talos.config.inline.
CNI Plugins
Talos Linux now bundles by default the following standard CNI plugins:
bridgefirewallflannelhost-localloopbackportmap
The Talos bundled Flannel manifest was simplified to remove the install-cni step.
Diagnostics
Talos Linux now shows diagnostics information for common problems related to misconfiguration via talosctl health and Talos dashboard.
Disk Management
Talos Linux now supports configuration for the EPHEMERAL volume.
Extensions in Kubernetes Nodes
Talos Linux now publishes list of installed extensions as Kubernetes node labels/annotations.
The key format is extensions.talos.dev/<name> and the value is the extension version.
If the extension name is not valid as a label key, it will be skipped.
If the extension version is a valid label value, it will be put to the label; otherwise it will be put to the annotation.
For Talos machines booted of the Image Factory artifacts, this means that the schematic ID will be published as the annotation
extensions.talos.dev/schematic (as it is longer than 63 characters).
DNS Forwarding for CoreDNS pods
Usage of the host DNS resolver as upstream for Kubernetes CoreDNS pods is now enabled by default. You can disable it
with:
machine:
features:
hostDNS:
enabled: true
forwardKubeDNSToHost: falsePlease note that on running cluster you will have to kill CoreDNS pods for this change to apply.
The IP address used to forward DNS queries has changed to the fixed 169.254.116.108 address.
For those upgrading from Talos 1.7 with forwardKubeDNSToHost enabled, the old Kubernetes service
can be cleaned up with kubectl delete -n kube-system service host-dns.
Installer
Talos Linux installer now never wipes the system disk on upgrades, which means that the flag
--preserve is always set for talosctl upgrade.
talos.halt_if_installed kernel argument
Starting with Talos 1.8, ISO's generated from Boot Assets would have a new kernel argument talos.halt_if_installed which would pause the boot sequence until boot timeout if Talos is already installed on the disk.
ISO generated for pre 1.8 versions would not have this kernel argument.
This can be also explicitly enabled by setting talos.halt_if_installed=1 in kernel argument.
Slim Kubelet Image
Kubelet container image includes various utilities that kubelet might use to perform various tasks.
Starting with Kubernetes 1.31.0, kubelet image now includes less utilities, as the in-tree CSI plugins were
removed in Kubernetes 1.31.0. This reduces kubelet image size and potential attack surface.

For Kubernetes >= 1.31.0, there will be same two images built, but the
default tag would point to slim image:
v1.x.y(default, slim)v1.x.y-fat(fat)
Default Node Labels
Talos Linux on config generation now adds a label node.kubernetes.io/exclude-from-external-load-balancers by default for the control plane nodes.
PCI Devices
A list of PCI devices can now be obtained via PCIDevices resource, e.g. talosctl get pcidevices.
Metal images
Starting with Talos 1.8, console=ttyS0 kernel argument is removed from the metal images and installer. If running virtualized in QEMU (For eg: Proxmox), this can be added as an extra kernel argument if needed via Image Factory or using Imager.
This should fix slow boot or no console output issues on most bare metal hardware.
NVIDIA GPU Support
Starting with Talos 1.8.0, SideroLabs would ships extensions for both LTS and Production versions of NVIDIA extensions.
For more details see the CHANGELOG of extensions.
Upgrades with an exisiting schematic id from Image Factory would keep the existing LTS version of the NVIDIA extension.
Platform Support
Talos Linux now supports Apache CloudStack platform.
kube-proxy
Talos Linux configures kube-proxy >= v1.31.0 to use 'nftables' backend by default.
Secure Boot
Talos Linux now can optionally include well-known UEFI (Microsoft) SecureBoot keys into the auto-enrollment UEFI database.
Custom Trusted Roots
Talos Linux now supports adding custom trusted roots (CA certificates) via TrustedRootsConfig configuration documents.
Device Extra Settle Timeout
Talos Linux now supports a kernel command line argument talos.device.settle_time=3m to set the device extra settle timeout to workaround issues with broken drivers.
Component Updates
Kubernetes: 1.31.0
Linux: 6.6.47
containerd: 2.0.0-rc.4
runc: 1.2.0-rc.2
etcd: 3.5.15
Flannel: 0.25.6
Flannel CNI plugin: 1.5.1
CoreDNS: 1.1.13
Talos is built with Go 1.22.6.
ZSTD Compression
Talos Linux now compresses kernel and initramfs using ZSTD.
Linux arm64 kernel is now compressed (previously it was uncompressed).
