Attendance: * Andrew Deason * Ben Kaduk * Derrick Brashear * Marc Dionne * Stephan Wiesand == 1.6.3 release == No new feedback. The release will be tagged next Monday, June the 17th unless a bug is reported before. == Next stable release == Andrew had prepared a list of changes already queued in gerrit that may require some deliberation before being included: http://gerrit.openafs.org/#q,branch:openafs-stable-1_6_x+starredby:1000008,n,z The result of going through those: === fs flushall === Stephan wants this in, no objections, approved. === restrict FlushCPS to administrators === Not a perfect solution, but a step in the right direction, and while it's a behavior change it is not expected to cause problems. Andrew will respond to the comments already present in gerrit. Approved. === Server initiated NAT pings === Will help NATed clients and won't cause problems if they work as designed. Approved === volser: preserve stats for R/O volumes === Makes RO volume statistics more useful. Approved. === NeverAttach === Simple and potentially useful. Approved. === bozo: retry start after error stops === Helps with a rare problem, is hard to test, touches server code that isn't that simple, and waiting for up to O(10h) before retrying seems questionable. Needs more discussion. === remove ih_sync thread === 1.6.3 Makes this behavior runtime configurable. We'll keep the patch around for the time being, but it's not foreseen to be applied in a 1.6.x release anytime soon, if at all. === vol: Interrupt RX calls accessing offlining vols === Low priority. Probably not for the next stable release. === libafscp: NULL return value not pointer === Is a straightforward fix for a problem not yet present on the 1.6.x branch. === give up callbacks at client shutdown === Should be made runtime configurable and default to off, in order not to hurt sites with old servers. To be done. === volser: Do not reset copyDate in ReClone === Simple, makes sense, but a behavior change. Approved, but should be made prominent in the announcement to give sites using this datum a chance to object (or cope). -- Stephan Wiesand DESY -DV- Platanenenallee 6 15738 Zeuthen, Germany _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-devel
