It's been a week of toiling on the tasks we need to ship a release -- fixing bugs and flaky tests. We've had 0 new ticket opened against 4.0 since the last status email (6d). https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/RapidBoard.jspa?rapidView=355&projectKey=CASSANDRA&quickFilter=1661&quickFilter=1670 We've closed out 10 tickets since the last status email (6d) https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/RapidBoard.jspa?rapidView=355&projectKey=CASSANDRA&quickFilter=1671 For a delta of -10 total tickets, and a grand total of 98 tickets currently unresolved. The cumulative flow diagram continues to show healthy progress: https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/RapidBoard.jspa?rapidView=355&projectKey=CASSANDRA&view=reporting&chart=cumulativeFlowDiagram&swimlane=939&swimlane=936&swimlane=931&column=1505&column=1506&column=1514&column=1509&column=1512&column=1507&days=90 [Unassigned Tickets] We have 2 alpha, 3 beta, 17 RC tickets without assigness. https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/RapidBoard.jspa?rapidView=355&projectKey=CASSANDRA&selectedIssue=CASSANDRA-15338&quickFilter=1658&quickFilter=1661 A couple of test failures would be good to investigate, however the two BufferPool tickets remain unassigned still. CASSANDRA-15306: Investigate why we are allocating 8MiB chunks and reaching the maximum BufferPool size https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-15306 Our current unassigned white whale from July of last year: CASSANDRA-15229: BufferPool Regression https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-15229 The TL;DR from Benedict on the ticket: "The BufferPool was never intended to be used for a ChunkCache, and we need to either change our behaviour to handle uncorrelated lifetimes or use something else. " So this one could be quite an interesting challenge for someone that knows this portion of the codebase. [Stuck tickets - needs reviewer] https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/RapidBoard.jspa?rapidView=355&quickFilter=1661&quickFilter=1659 (removing tickets that have had discussion since the most recent patch was made available and checked with a few assignees on Slack) CASSANDRA-15565 Fix flaky test org.apache.cassandra.index.internal.CassandraIndexTest indexCorrectlyMarkedAsBuildAndRemoved -- it's fairly small. [Notable tickets closed in the past week] CASSANDRA-15338, CASSANDRA-15552, CASSANDRA-15613 fixes for flakey tests. Fans of green CI runs can rejoice. CASSANDRA-15476, CASSANDRA-15481, CASSANDRA-15353 docs for Transient Replication and Data Modeling and more. CASSANDRA-15616 Expose Cassandra related system properties in a virtual table Thanks everyone for all your hard work. Jon
