I'll be mostly off till Sept 1st. Reported build breakage on IA64 is not solved in this release. I don't have the hw to investigate this. If someone is interested, feel free to debug this and send a patch. The breakage seem to come from the clone syscall declaration. Todo, for next releases : * move to the new klibc development environment Sam Ravnborg is working on, as soon as it stabilizes : hope to drop the klibc tree from the multipath-tools tarball, and finally be packageable by distributors. * resolve the OOM scenarii for multipathd. I guess the kernel will have to help in some way. Anyway, advice badly needed here. 2004-08-14 multipath-tools-0.2.8 * [multipathd] setsched prio to RT * [multipath] massive include cleanup * [multipath] add a "default_prio_callout" keyword first user will be SPC-3 ALUA priority field fetcher from IBM * [multipath] reenable stdout on some error paths * [build] spilt KERNEL_DIR into KERNEL_SOURCE & KERNEL_BUILD as per 2.6 and SuSe convention * [klibc] kill warnings due to awk parsing wrong locale in arch/i386/MCONFIG * [multipath] implement a generic group_by_prio pgpolicy * [multipath] fix the broken failover pgpolicy Downloads and docs at http://christophe.varoqui.free.fr regards, cvaroqui
