* version 3.0.6
Severity : normal
Bugzilla : 15320
Description: OSS crashes frequently, e2fsck does not fix
Details : Add an extra check to ldiskfs extents code for the condition,
eh_entries = 0 & eh_depth != 0
Severity : normal
Bugzilla : 15459
Description: migrate ldiskfs - ldiskfs2 (extents on directories)
Details : disable preallocation for non-regular files.
Severity : normal
Frequency : blocks per group < blocksize*8 and uninit_groups is enabled
Bugzilla : 15932
Description: ldiskfs error: XXX blocks in bitmap, YYY in gd
Details : If blocks per group is less than blocksize*8, set rest of the
bitmap to 1.
Severity : normal
Frequency : only for filesystems larger than 8TB
Bugzilla : 16101
Description: ldiskfs BUG ldiskfs_mb_use_best_found()
Details : The ldiskfs mballoc3 code was using a __u16 to store the group
number, but with 8TB+ filesystems there are more than 65536
groups, causing an oops.
Severity : enhancement
Bugzilla : 10555
Description: Add a FIEMAP(FIle Extent MAP) ioctl for ldiskfs
Details : FIEMAP ioctl will allow an application to efficiently fetch the
extent information of a file. It can be used to map logical blocks
in a file to physical blocks in the block device.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Severity : normal
Bugzilla : 14493
Description: Kernel BUG at ... ldiskfs/ldiskfs/mballoc.c:3853
Details : Removing the underlying device (e.g. via a SCSI rescan) can cause a
kernel BUG in ldiskfs_mb_discard_inode_preallocations().
Severity : major
Bugzilla : 14596
Description: deadlock in ext3_expand_extra_isize
Details : Inode expansion during ext3_mark_inode_dirty may lead to deadlock.
This is solved by making sure that ext3_expand_extra_isize isn't
called from ext3_xattr_set_handle.
Severity : normal
Bugzilla : 14594
Description: soft lockups on 1.6.2 MDS (is_subdir)
Details : don't add dentries with ".." to dcache and ignore such dentries in
iopen_lookup().
Severity : critical
Frequency : very rare, if additional xattrs are used on kernels >= 2.6.12
Bugzilla : 15777
Description: files may lose file attributes in some cases
Details : If there are multiple extended attributes stored on the inode,
in particular ACLs, SELinux, or user attributes (if user_xattr
is specified for the client mount options) then there is a risk
of attribute loss. If an additional attribute is be stored
initially in the inode and then increase in size enough to be
moved to the external attribute block (e.g. ACL growing in size)
for the attribute to be lost.
Severity : normal
Bugzilla : 15604
Description: inode version not being initialized on new inodes
Details : The inode i_version field was not being initialized on disk.
This field is currently unused but will be needed for VBR.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Severity : normal
Bugzilla : 13397
Description: Add support for vanilla-2.6.22 kernel.

2007-12-07 Cluster File Systems, Inc. <info@clusterfs.com>
* version 3.0.3
Severity : normal
Bugzilla : 13164
Description: statfs speedup patches.
Details : The patches improve statfs performance for very large
filesystems.
Severity : normal
Frequency : if the uninit_groups feature is enabled on ldiskfs
Bugzilla : 13706
Description: e2fsck reports "invalid unused inodes count"
Details : If a new ldiskfs filesystem is created with the "uninit_groups"
feature and only a single inode is created in a group then the
"bg_unused_inodes" count is incorrectly updated. Creating a
second inode in that group would update it correctly.

* version 3.0.2
Severity : enhancement
Bugzilla : 10555
Description: Add a FIEMAP(FIle Extent MAP) ioctl for ldiskfs
Details : FIEMAP ioctl will allow an application to efficiently fetch the
extent information of a file. It can be used to map logical blocks
in a file to physical blocks in the block device.

2007-08-29 Cluster File Systems, Inc. <info@clusterfs.com>
* version 3.0.1
Severity : major
Frequency : rare
Bugzilla : 6334
Description: Multiple mount protection(MMP) support.
Details : This feature will protect the filesystem from being mounted more
than once simultaneously. It will also protect changes by e2fsprogs
to the filesystem if it is mounted. This assumes high importance
in a shared storage environment where multiple mounts can severely
corrupt the filesystem.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* version 3.0.0
* Initial release of ldiskfs as a separate package.
Severity : normal
Frequency : rare
Bugzilla : 12415
Description: Updated patchess for new RHEL4 kernel
Details : Add patch ext3-unlink-race.patch
Updated series file ldiskfs-2.6-rhel4.series
