This replaces CTDB_LOGFILE and +CTDB_SYSLOG, which have both been removed. See ctdbd.conf(5) for +details of CTDB_LOGGING. + +CTDB no longer runs a separate logging daemon. + +CTDB NFS support changes +------------------------ + +CTDB's NFS service management has been combined into a single 60.nfs +event script. This updated 60.nfs script now uses a call-out to +interact with different NFS implementations. See the CTDB_NFS_CALLOUT +option in the ctdbd.conf(5) manual page for details. A default +call-out is provided to interact with the Linux kernel NFS +implementation. The 60.ganesha event script has been removed - a +sample call-out is provided for NFS Ganesha, based on this script. + +The method of configuring NFS RPC checks has been improved. See +ctdb/config/nfs-checks.d/README for details. + +Improved Cross-Compiling Support +-------------------------------- + +A new "hybrid" build configuration mode is added to improve +cross-compilation support. + +A common challenge in cross-compilation is that of obtaining the results +of tests that have to run on the target, during the configuration +phase of the build. The Samba build system already supports the following +means to do so: + + - Executing configure tests using the --cross-execute parameter + - Obtaining the results from an answers file using the --cross-answers + parameter + +The first method has the drawback of inaccurate results if the tests are +run using an emulator, or a need to be connected to a running target +while building, if the tests are to be run on an actual target. The +second method presents a challenge of figuring out the test results. + +The new hybrid mode runs the tests and records the result in an answer file. +To activate this mode, use both --cross-execute and --cross-answers in the +same configure invocation. This mode can be activated once against a +running target, and then the generated answers file can be used in +subsequent builds. + +Also supplied is an example script that can be used as the +cross-execute program. This script copies the test to a running target +and runs the test on the target, obtaining the result. The obtained +results are more accurate than running the test with an emulator, because +they reflect the exact kernel and system libraries that exist on the +target. + ###################################################################### Changes -- Samba Shared Repository
