All, We are pleased to announce the general availability of kronosnet v1.23.
This version contains MAJOR bug fixes and everybody is strongly encouraged to upgrade as soon as possible.
The defrag buffer fixes introduced in v1.22, revealed a long standing bug in corosync, 2 serious bugs in knet that have been lurking around for approx 11 years, and one bug in libqb (spotted during testing of the fixes in this release). Please make sure to upgrade all of them as soon as possible. Corosync and libqb releases are happening (or have already happened) as this announcement is being sent out.
All our development team would like to thank the Proxmox VE maintainer, Fabian Gruenbichler, for the extremely detailed bug reports, reproducers and collecting all the data from the affected Proxmox VE users, and his dedication over the past month to debug, test and work with us.
kronosnet (or knet for short) is the new underlying network protocol for Linux HA components (corosync), that features the ability to use multiple links between nodes, active/active and active/passive link failover policies, automatic link recovery, FIPS compliant encryption (nss and/or openssl), automatic PMTUd and in general better performance compared to the old network protocol.
Highlights in this release: * [URGENT] Fix packet sequence number initialization race * [URGENT] Fix UDP link down detection when other nodes restart too fast * [minor] Fix nss buffer boundaries * [minor] improved error logs to make it easier to debug improper setups * [minor] improved logging to not drop log messages on socket overload * Fix build with musl/glibc on archlinux * Enhance security build using annocheck / annobin * Minor bug fixes and enhancements in the test suite Known issues in this release: * The long standing SCTP problem with dynamic links (spotted while preparing v1.21) has not been addressed yet. The problem does NOT affect the corosync / High Availability use case.
