Hi all,
A small yet significant release this time. gfs2 support for fs format
1802 has been merged into the upstream kernel in the 5.12 merge window,
so this release keeps gfs2-utils current with that development. Format
1802 adds support for 'trusted.*' xattrs in gfs2 and enables the
'rgrplvb' feature by default.
When gfs2-utils is built against a gfs2_ondisk.h kernel header that
defines the fs format as 1802, mkfs.gfs2 will now create filesystems
with that format by default. This can be overriden using the '-o
format=1801' option. tunegfs2 can also now upgrade a filesystem to this
format and fsck.gfs2 recognises it too.
Other than that, we have a sprinkling of cleanups and bug fixes, and the
unit tests have been restructured. The full list of changes is below.
Grab the release tarball from:
https://releases.pagure.org/gfs2-utils/gfs2-utils-3.4.0.tar.gz
Please report bugs at:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=File%20System&component=gfs2
Cheers,
Andy
