From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Andrew Price Date: Fri, 05 Sep 2014 19:34:13 +0100 Subject: [Cluster-devel] gfs2-utils 3.1.7 released Message-ID: <540A0225.8060200@redhat.com> List-Id: To: cluster-devel.redhat.com MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hi, I'm happy to announce that gfs2-utils 3.1.7 has been released. Notable changes include: * Journal layout and performance improvements in mkfs.gfs2: mkfs.gfs2 now allocates and writes resource groups and journal blocks in-order, improving the time it takes to create a gfs2 file system. Journals are laid out as single extents; when the journal size is larger than the resource group size, the initial resource groups are sized specifically to accommodate contiguous journals. * fsck.gfs2 performance and other improvements fsck.gfs2 now makes use of read-ahead to speed up inode processing which can improve the performance of fsck.gfs2 runs for certain workloads. It also includes timing and logging instrumentation in order to help debug and monitor performance changes in fsck.gfs2. Handling of journal indirect block corruption has also been improved. * Test suite enhancements gfs2-utils now uses GNU Autotest which is a testing framework integrated with Autotools-based build systems. More new test cases have been added and we will continue to improve coverage over time. * Bug fixes Many bug fixes and improvements across the board based on testing, user feedback and static analysis results. See below for a full list of changes. The source tarball is available from: https://fedorahosted.org/released/gfs2-utils/gfs2-utils-3.1.7.tar.gz Please test, and do make sure to report bugs, whether they're crashers or typos. Please file them against the gfs2-utils component of Fedora rawhide: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/enter_bug.cgi?product=Fedora&component=gfs2-utils&version=rawhide Regards, Andy * Changes since 3.1.6:
