It is better to cut 4.8 release branch soon

2018-08-09 Thread Enrico Olivelli
As I told at the meeting, it seems to me that the great work that is doing
Ivan is really greater than what we were expecting when we decided to defer
4.8.

We don't really are in a hurry for the binary metadata stuff, so we can
defer to 4.9.

I think it is safer to cut the 4.8 release branch soon, cherry pick ongoing
patches from JV and Andrey.

The issue found from Ivan about possible data loss should be fixed as well.

Opinions?

Status of immutable metadata

2018-08-09 Thread Ivan Kelly
Hi folks,

As some of you are aware I've been working on making the client
metadata immutable. What this means is that the client will only act
on metadata that reflects what is in zookeeper.

I've pretty much got all the code done for it. However, the last 2
days I've been sidetracked by a bug I saw while working on the
metadata.

https://github.com/apache/bookkeeper/issues/1591

It's a pretty serious bug. The client can report data as persisted
that then disappears. And moving to immutable metadata doesn't solve
it. Given that the bug is in the same area as metadata updates, we
should resolve it before I push the final metadata changes.

Thank you Enrico.

I will try my best to attend it, since I might be driving at that time.
