Participants: * Andrew Deason * Ben Kaduk * Derrick Brashear * Jeffrey Altman * Marc Dionne * Mike Meffie * Stephan Wiesand == Problem reports == https://lists.openafs.org/pipermail/openafs-info/2014-February/040506.html Fssync problems during vos backupsys on NBSD. Andrew is working with the reporter. Not a blocker for the next release. https://lists.openafs.org/pipermail/openafs-info/2014-February/040503.html Linux panics due to multiple mounts. Not much progress. Old problem, no solution at hand yet. Not a blocker for the time being. RT #131804 (vos release -stayonline) New feature in 1.6.2. There's another report that it doesn't work. Broken by a later patch to vos? RT #131578 (afs commander crashes, reported a year ago) Needs work, may hinder AFS adoption on OS X. Not a blocker. == Linux news == Marc tested with the current mainline this morning, no need for changes yet. == 1.6.7^H8 release == 1.6.7 will be a security release (1.6.6 plus a security fix, nothing else). Hence what was planned to be released as 1.6.7 will become 1.6.8. We plan for a 1.6.8pre1 shortly before EAKC. Thus, further changes to be considered for 1.6.8 should be either very simple or urgent. Complex non-critical fixes or additional features should be postponed to 1.6.9. A possible fix for the linux multiple mounts issue will still be considered for inclusion, as well as gerrit 9020 (vos release -force-reclone), if ready in time. More review is needed for many changes lined up for inclusion in gerrit. Please focus on those not marked -2 for the time being. == 1.6.8 changes pre announcements == Jeffrey to take care. The ih_sync change to default to onclose will be included. == Status of items foreseen to be included in 1.6.8 == The "give up callback" changes were recently rebased but no longer build. Stephan will try to fix them. [update: they now build, but what we have seems not to work as expected] [the remainder of this text is 1.6.8 bookeeping] Idledead change to help the "no buffer space available" problem: Gerrit 10773 ist still being reviewed on master, stalled on two trivial changes to be done. Parallel build fixes (http://gerrit.openafs.org/#q,project:openafs+branch:master+topic:parallel-make,n,z ). Stalled. === Accepted on master, to be pulled up to 1_6_x === - nothing left that was discussed before - === Pulled up to 1_6_x, to be reviewed === Ben's changes to allow using the OS X buildbot slave for 1_6_x too: 10744 afs: Handle reading past the end of a file (new patch set) Interrupt clients accessing offlining volumes: 10799 viced: Add options for interrupting clients 6266 vol: Interrupt RX calls accessing offlining vols (single +1 yet) Give up callbacks at shutdown: 8840 libafs: Correct GUACB afs_LoopServers flags 6272 unix: giveupallcallbacks at shutdown Others (no progress, or insufficient progress to merge): 10772 vol: Nuke parent vol special inodes 10771 salvager: Ignore linktable-only RW volumes 10770 namei: Set inconsistent linktable linkCount to 0 10759 viced: Avoid issuing redundant TMAY requests 10757 viced: Improve client error log messages 10755 viced: Avoid endless BCB loop -- Stephan Wiesand DESY -DV- Platanenenallee 6 15738 Zeuthen, Germany _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-devel
