I will advertise the new features with the announcement of the final releases. This is rather the public call for users to test these releases on their staging systems. 8.2.7rc2 (api:86/proto:86-88) -------- * Fixed possible Oops on connection loss during sync handshake * Fixed various possible deadlocks in the disconnect/reconnect and online-verify code * Fixed possible access-after-free * Added support for TCP buffer autotuning * Added support for AF_SCI aka "Super Sockets" * Added support for IPV6 * latency improvements * Support for using barriers to enforce write ordering on the secondary node. New config options: no-disk-barrier, no-disk-drain * Merged all changes from 8.0.12 -> 8.0.14 into 8.2 http://oss.linbit.com/drbd/8.2/drbd-8.2.7rc2.tar.gz http://git.drbd.org/?p=drbd-8.2.git;a=tag;h=drbd-8.2.7rc2 8.0.14rc1 (api:86/proto:86) -------- * fixed some access-after-free corner cases * fixed some potential deadlocks on state changes * don't use bounce buffers (reduce unnecessary buffer page bounces on 32bit) * properly serialize IO operations on the whole bitmap * reduce race possibilities in our thread restart code * linux 2.6.27 compatibility * latency improvements using TCP_QUICKACK * reduced spurious coding differrences between drbd-8.0 and drbd-8.2 * drbdsetup now checks for /proc/drbd instead of playing netlink ping-pong to determin whether the drbd kernel module is present. * fixed (harmless but annoying) stack corruption in drbdadm * adjusted timeouts on 'detach' and 'down' * fixed unit conversion of disk size configuration parameter * fixed drbdadm/drbdsetup default unit mismatch for disk size configuration parameter * drbd.spec file update * documentation update http://oss.linbit.com/drbd/8.0/drbd-8.0.14rc1.tar.gz http://git.drbd.org/?p=drbd-8.0.git;a=tag;h=drbd-8.0.14rc1 -Phil -- : Dipl-Ing Philipp Reisner : LINBIT | Your Way to High Availability : Tel: +43-1-8178292-50, Fax: +43-1-8178292-82 : http://www.linbit.com DRBD(R) and LINBIT(R) are registered trademarks of LINBIT, Austria.
