 * Bugzilla: 20744

Severity: normal Frequency : only with SLES10 Description: Use OFED "KMP" provided by Novell Details: SLES10 SP3 ships with OFED in a separate "KMP" package. Lustre is now built against this package.

 * Bugzilla: 22481

Severity: normal Description: mds_orphan_add_link) error linking orphan to PENDING Details: quota limits might disallow linking orphans to PENDING when unlinking a file - temporary raise threads' privileges when processing unlinks.
 * Bugzilla: 22679

Severity: enhancement Description: add conf-param -d option to remove permanent settings. Details: Add the ability to remove permanent lctl conf_param settings. (Previously conf_param settings could only be changed, not removed.) This also provides a method to change failover nid locations. Improve lctl man page.
 * Bugzilla: 15253

Severity: enhancement Description: add list_param to b1_8 and add "-R" option to list params recursively
 * Bugzilla: 22455

Severity: enhancement Description: lfs quota output is not very convenient for awk/sed-parsing Details: Some positions in lfs quota output table could be empty or non-empty which made it hard to parse it with scripts, now a dash is put instead of space where there is not supposed to be any data.

Severity: normal Description: Don't consume grant space twice on recoverable resent.
 * Bugzilla: 22755

Severity: normal Description: a race condition could lead to SIGBUS being sent to an application using mmap-ped files from Lustre Details: truncate_complete_page implementation for the patchless client could arbitrarily unset PG_Uptodate flag for a page being kicked from the page cache, an uptodate check right after a readpage call in filemap_fault could fail because of that as though the page read had been unsuccessful.
 * Bugzilla: 22610

Severity: normal Description: dlm lock slab shrinking is not efficient Details: The dlm_locks slab can grow significantly and consumes a lot of memory on the server. Set a hardlimit to grant_plan.
 * Bugzilla: 22476

Severity: normal Description: Lustre does not do 1MB IOs to HW RAID Details: Bump MAX_PHYS/HW_SEGMENTS and SG_ALL to 256 in the RHEL5 kernel. This is what we do already for SLES kernels.
 * Bugzilla: 22850

Severity: normal Description: bump maximum number of phys/hw segments in the SLES11 kernel until s/g chaining works properly.
 * Bugzilla: 22223

Severity: normal Description: obdfilter-survey is no longer working Details: revert patch from bug 20355 to resolve an issue with lctl --threads not working correctly with $(PTHREAD_LIBS) being linked to lctl.
 * Bugzilla: 22749

Severity: normal Description: ll_shrink_cache does not handle __GFP_FS properly
 * Bugzilla: 22786

Severity: normal Description: lfs getstripe shows wrong info for directories Details: Set correct LOVEA default values for filesystem-wide.

 * Bugzilla: 11742

Severity: normal Description: file operations after eviction have successful return values Details: use vfs ->flush callback to return any pending async errors on file close.
 * Bugzilla: 22360

Severity: normal Description: mdsrate fails to write after 1.3+M files opened Details: decrease memory usage on clients by recycling dentries and inodes.

Severity: normal Description: obdfilter-survey gives unreasonably high numbers Details: Wait for all threads to complete when running test_brw.
 * Bugzilla: 17382

Severity: normal Description: do not set lustre read_only device when server umount and keep client records for recoverable ones
 * Bugzilla: 22299

 * Bugzilla: 22241

Severity: normal Description: exp->exp_nid_stats == NULL in filter_tally Details: fix race with per-nid stats by delaying procfs cleanup until exp_refcount == 0
 * Bugzilla: 21871

Severity: normal Description: extent lock cancellation on client can keep the cpu busy for too long.
 * Bugzilla: 21556

Severity: normal Description: Do not fail OST activation when a llog is not found, just issue an error message.
 * Bugzilla: 22658

Severity: normal Description: Don't enable extents by default for MDT.
 * Bugzilla: 22911

Severity: normal Description: Protect bitfield access to ptlrpc_request's rq_flags, since the AT code can access it concurrently while sending early replies.
 * Bugzilla: 21877

Severity: normal Description: Disable lockless truncate by default since it is sometimes flawed and causes the write_disjoint test to fail.
 * Bugzilla: 23175

Severity: normal Description: OSSs which don't have the patch from bug 20278 can trigger an LBUG on 1.8 clients.
 * Bugzilla: 23139

Severity: enhancement Description: don't print message to the console when we have not managed to cancel all locks.
 * Bugzilla: 21528

Severity: normal Description: The MDS fails to synchronize OSTs which registered with the MGS after the MDT. The problem is that OBD_NOTIFY_CREATE events are raised too early and thus discarded by the MDT stack. The fix consists of issuing OBD_NOTIFY_CREATE event in the lov layer.
 * Bugzilla: 23305

Severity: normal Description: Fix race when the ping evictor and a service thread execute target_recovery_check_and_stop concurrently.
 * Bugzilla: 23192

Severity: normal Description: quota broadcast can trigger a LBUG on the MDT if there are inactive OSCs.
 * Bugzilla: 23196

Severity: enhancement Description: Resetting the lov_objid values to last_id reported by the OST during orphan recovery is incorrect and can cause the same objects to be allocated twice.
 * Bugzilla: 17485

Severity: enhancement Description: "weak-modules" support Details: Implement "weak-modules" support which enables kernel modules to be used with any kernel that implements the same kABI. In order to achieve this modules are now installed in /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/updates/kernel on all distributions.

 * Bugzilla: 22884

=Changes from v1.8.2 to v1.8.3= Support for networks:
 * socklnd - any kernel supported by Lustre™
 * qswlnd - Qsnet kernel modules 5.20 and later
 * openiblnd - IbGold 1.8.2
 * o2iblnd - OFED 1.1, 1.2.0, 1.2.5, 1.3, 1.4.1 and 1.4.2
 * viblnd - Voltaire ibhost 3.4.5 and later
 * ciblnd - Topspin 3.2.0
 * iiblnd - Infiniserv 3.3 + PathBits patch
 * gmlnd - GM 2.1.22 and later
 * mxlnd - MX 1.2.10 or later
 * ptllnd - Portals 3.3 / UNICOS/lc 1.5.x, 2.0.x

Support for kernels:
 * 2.6.16.60-0.42.8 (SLES 10)
 * 2.6.27.39-0.3.1 (SLES11, i686 & x84_64 only)
 * 2.6.18-164.11.1.el5 (RHEL 5)
 * 2.6.18-164.11.1.0.1.el5 (OEL 5)

Client support for unpatched kernels: (see Patchless Client)
 * 2.6.16 - 2.6.30 vanilla (kernel.org)

Recommended e2fsprogs version: 1.41.10-sun2

The async journal commit feature (bug 19128) and the cancel lock before replay feature (bug 16774) are disabled by default.

Severity: normal Description: fix for a race condition in linux quotas implementation Details: dq_flags(struct dquot) access is not properly locked which could lead to certain inconsistencies when accessing it using non-atomic bit operations like __set_bit in do_set_dqblk. This patch replaces non-atomic __set_bit calls with atomic set_bit calls.
 * Bugzilla: 22363

Severity: normal Description: initialize the child_res_id for OPEN lock Details: in mds_open, initialize the child_res_id before enqueuing the OPEN lock for the child inode, then to avoid senting wrong ldlm_res_id to client.
 * Bugzilla: 22307

Severity: normal Description: lst: check # of remained RPCs before aborting Details: lstcon_rpc_trans_postwait calls lstcon_rpc_trans_abort only when the transaction is timeout, so if we got "end_session" to interrupt waiting on transaction, then we can hit the assertion failure ASSERTION(crpc->crp_stamp != 0)
 * Bugzilla: 22556

Severity: normal Description: Suppress "changing the import ..." warning. Details: This warning will always be printed when the MDT reconnects to an OST after the MDT is restarted. There is nothing wrong here and more importantly there is nothing the admin should do or care about so I'm moving the warning to D_HA.
 * Bugzilla: 16909

Severity: normal Description: Use INFO/WARN instead of WARN/ERROR for the slow messages. Details: We should use INFO/WARN instead of WARN/ERROR for the slow messages. Not only is there no real error here but it fixes an annoying quirk of the message formatting. With the old levels you would see the messages formatted differently based on the time.
 * Bugzilla: 16909

Severity: normal Description: Computing result of unsigned variable may < 0.
 * Bugzilla: 22385

Severity: major Description: allow multiple instances of the same nid in NID hash Details: Case of multiple separate clients from the same NID (as with liblustre) is legitimate and so we should allow multiple instances of the same NID in nid hash.
 * Bugzilla: 22252

Severity: normal Description: rely on pings to issue reconnects Details: Don't wake up pinger on reconnect failures and rely on regular pings to trigger the next reconnection. Please note that the pinger already uses a smaller interval if the import is disconnected.
 * Bugzilla: 22423

Severity: normal Description: print more debug info for timedout ZC-req Details: 1. output more information for timedout ZC-req and partial received connection 2. close connection for timedout ZC-req 3. always send ZC_ACK on non-blocking connection(BULK_IN)
 * Bugzilla: 20615

Severity: normal Description: remove lock acquisition during holding spinlock Details: in ras_update, "lov_get_info" could be called during increasing readahead windows, which tries to get the mutex lock "lov_lock" while holding the spin_lock "ras_lock", then causes system lockup.
 * Bugzilla: 22307

Severity: normal Description: ASSERTION(cli->cl_avail_grant >= 0) failed Details: This patch tries to address several issues: 1. osc_init_grant: calculate avail_grant according to recovery status. 2. osc_reconnect: request grant should include cl_dirty. 3. filter_grant: beside server reboot, we should also grant the requested amount in case of normal reconnect. 4. round-up grant amount instead of round-down, otherwise client would still have situation that dirty > granted.
 * Bugzilla: 20278

Severity: normal Description: Use CNETERR in specific places in the portal's LNET driver
 * Bugzilla: 20805

Severity: normal Description: include last created object in precreate slow case
 * Bugzilla: 22108

Severity: normal Description: don't do rep-ack if not created anything Details: mds_open currently always put a lock into a rep-ack regardless if something was created or not. This is pointless and only creates needless contention. In fact the entire idea was to do this for real creates as a recovery protection.
 * Bugzilla: 20373

Severity: normal Description: Spurious error messages from smp_processor_id on preemptible kernel Details: Disable a preemption by grabbing the lock in fs_trace_get_tcd first. The function fs_trace_get_tcd was moved up.
 * Bugzilla: 22409

Severity: normal Description: 2.6.31-fc12 patchless client support.
 * Bugzilla: 21500

Severity: normal Description: give the BUILD_TESTS love to ldiskfs as well Details: Because ldiskfs re-uses so (too?) much of the lustre auto* goop we need to stub the BUILD_TESTS assignment into it's autoMakefile.am, even though it's completely unused/unneed there.
 * Bugzilla: 17258

Severity: normal Description: interval_erase fix Details: interval_erase calls update_maxhigh properly when child == NULL
 * Bugzilla: 22181

Severity: normal Description: Adding WIRE_ATTR attribute to LNET types Details: LST nodes on different platforms might not communicate well due to the lack of WIRE_ATTR attribute in some LNET structures traversing network. The patch fixes the problem by adding WIRE_ATTR where needed.
 * Bugzilla: 21945

Severity: normal Description: replace server_major_version with connect_flags for quota utils interoperability
 * Bugzilla: 22069

Severity: normal Description: do_div arguments not cross-platform compatible
 * Bugzilla: 22233

Severity: normal Description: fix error message in mds_mfd_close Details: Fix error messages in mds_mfd_close since it is now legitimate to have i_nlink = 1 for dirs in /PENDING.
 * Bugzilla: 22177

Severity: normal Description: "lfs df" does not print stats for all mountpoints Details: Print all mounted lustre filesystems with "lfs df"
 * Bugzilla: 22327

Severity: normal Description: debug_mb not correctly initialized on newer kernels (2.6.31) Details: Fixed the debug_mb initialization problem for kernel 2.6.31
 * Bugzilla: 21957

Severity: normal Description: support relative path in llapi_search_fsname Details: Use realpath to provide absolute pathname.
 * Bugzilla: 19919

Severity: normal Description: fix for truncated reply buffer Details: reply buffer could be referred by reply_in_callback after released
 * Bugzilla: 21486

Severity: normal Description: Add quiet -q option to lfs quota
 * Bugzilla: 22194

Severity: normal Description: hash MEs on RDMA portal Details: RDMA portal can have very long ME list on client side, which will trigger soft lockup because of long searching on list. Hash MEs on RDMA portal can resolve this problem.
 * Bugzilla: 21619

Severity: normal Description: udev rule to set /dev/obd perms 666 Details: Provide Udev rules file for Lustre, so that /dev/obd permissions are now 666.
 * Bugzilla: 21259

Severity: normal Description: lustre.lov error when backing up symlinks with extended attributes Details: Improved logic in ll_listxattr
 * Bugzilla: 22301

Severity: normal Description: properly handle null value for setattr -n lustre.lov Details: Running "setfattr -n trusted.lov ." causes a NULL dereference in ll_setxattr due to no checking if "value" is NULL. This command now resets to the default striping when executed against a directory.
 * Bugzilla: 22187

Severity: normal Description: skip statahead for NFSCLIENT
 * Bugzilla: 22319

Severity: normal Description: Kernel update for SLES9 2.6.5-7.322.
 * Bugzilla: 22352

Severity: normal Description: lfs quota output cleanup Details: Suppress standard output in error cases
 * Bugzilla: 22194

Severity: normal Description: llapi_uuid_match prints bogus error message on upgraded filesystem Details: 1. Increase the "lfs df" column width to handle TB sized devices cleanly 2. Allow matching OST names without trailing _UUID 3. Allow negating the "--obd" option to "lfs find" 4. Remove duplicate code in mntdf iterating over MDTs/OSTs. Handle errors
 * Bugzilla: 22235

Severity: normal Description: call sync instead of fsync on local cancel to reduce stack usage Details: sync_on_lock_cancel is needed for recovery when async journal is enabled, but we actually just need to make sure that metadata blocks have hit the journal, so doing a fs sync should be enough and should consume less stack (just create an empty handle and commmit it).
 * Bugzilla: 22241

Severity: normal Description: simplify client disconnect code on server side Details: This patch was reverted because we were chasing some regression. It is now safe to re-apply.
 * Bugzilla: 21686

Severity: normal Description: workaround patch Details: disable the per-thread data (current->journal_info) containing the lock info during I/O to work around the issue for short tem
 * Bugzilla: 22035

Severity: normal Description: Print a dash in empty lfs quota grace columns Details: Polish lfs quota output for easier processing with awk/sed
 * Bugzilla: 22194

Severity: normal Description: rq_invalid_rqset should be a bitfield
 * Bugzilla: 21938

Severity: normal Description: control DCACHE_LUSTRE_INVALID flag with MDS_INODELOCK_LOOKUP lock Details: "DCACHE_LUSTRE_INVALID" is controlled by "MDS_INODELOCK_LOOKUP" lock which is corresponding to "IT_LOOKUP", do not skip invalidate for other intent.
 * Bugzilla: 19933

Severity: normal Description: Cannot send after transport shutdown Details: Clear imp_vbr_failed flag upon eviction
 * Bugzilla: 20997

Severity: normal Description: use req->rq_set itself during recovery Details: during recovery, uses req->rq_set itself to replay the request instead of ptlrpcd_recovery_pc
 * Bugzilla: 21938

Severity: normal Description: introduce server major version for b1_8 and b2_0 quota utils interoperability
 * Bugzilla: 22069

Severity: normal Description: Use CFS_ALLOC_IO instead of _STD in llap_from_page_with_lockh Details: During an ll_readahead under ll_readpage, we have seen the the OBD_SLAB_ALLOC hang under ldlm_pools_shrink when trying to lock a page that is already locked by the readahead code. Using CFS_ALLOC_IO instead of CFS_ALLOC_STD will prevent ldlm_pools_shrink from actually freeing slab, so the call path that blocks indefinitely can never happen.
 * Bugzilla: 21983

Severity: normal Description: inc nlink by 2 instead of 1 in mds_orphan_add_link Details: Fix regression introduced by 19640. ext3_inc_count can reset nlink to 1 when the directory is indexed and inode->i_nlink == 2. Work around the problem by incrementing nlink by 2 instead of 1.

 * Bugzilla: 19553

Severity: normal Description: Get rid of the EXTRA_VERSION_DELIMETER shenanigans Details: We used to carry around a bunch of baggage in order to specify what kind of delimeter to put between the version and "extra version".

Severity: normal Frequency: rare, if used wide striped file and one ost in down. Description: don't return error if we created a subset of objects for file. Details: lov_update_create_set uses set->set_success as index for created objects, so if some requests failed, they will have hole at end of array and we can use qos_shrink_lsm for allocate correct lsm.

 * Bugzilla: 18844

Severity: major Description: Protocol V2 of o2iblnd Details: o2iblnd V2 has several new features:
 * Bugzilla: 13621
 * Bugzilla: 15983
 * map-on-demand: map-on-demand is disabled by default, it can be enabled by using modparam "map_on_demand=@value@", @value@ should >= 0 and < 256, 0 will disable map-on-demand, any other valid value will enable map-on-demand.
 * Oi2blnd will create FMR or physical MR for RDMA if fragments of RD > @value@.
 * Enable map-on-demand will take less memory for new connection, but a little more CPU for RDMA.
 * iWARP : to support iWARP, please enable map-on-demand, 32 and 64 are recommanded value. iWARP will probably fail for value >=128.
 * OOB NOOP message: to resolve deadlock on router.
 * tunable peer_credits_hiw: (high water to return credits), default value of peer_credits_hiw equals to (peer_credits -1), user can change it between peer_credits/2 and (peer_credits - 1).  Lower value is recommended for high latency network.
 * tunable message queue size: it always equals to peer_credits, higher value is recommended for high latency network.
 * It's compatible with earlier version of o2iblnd

Severity: major Description: socklnd protocol version 3 Details: With current protocol V2, connections on router can be blocked and can't receive any incoming messages when there is no more router buffer, so ZC-ACK can't be handled (LNet message can't be finalized) and will cause deadlock on router. Protocol V3 has a dedicated connection for emergency messages like ZC-ACK to router, messages on this dedicated connection don't need any credit so will never be blocked. Also, V3 can send keepalive ping in specified period for router healthy checking.
