Hi Shyam/Raghavendra/Jiffin,
#18429 [1] addresses a missing functionality in gfapi (since almost
Day1) which is to be able to set lk_owner. This fix is now needed for
integration of recent/upcoming upstream NFS-Ganesha releases with
Gluster without which locking functionality over NFS shall be broken.
Considering changes to Ganesha and that the functionality will be broken
in our releases, and further based on Neil's comments (which I agree
with) I think we can backport this to existing LTM releases.
As 3.13 branching is early next week, please change the API version on
master, such that we do not have a backport pending on 3.13 for the same :)
Since 3.13 shall be STM release, to be able to continue supporting
existing stable gluster releases + NFS-Ganesha, I request you to approve
backport of that fix to 3.10 and 3.12 releases. The fix is not intrusive
and doesn't affect any other access protocol.
Once it gets approved, as suggested by Niels, I shall first change the
symbol version of that new routine to 3.10 in master branch and then
backport the changes to stable releases.
Thanks,
Soumya
