User-Visible OpenAFS Changes
-OpenAFS 1.8 (in progress)
+OpenAFS 1.8.0pre2
All Platforms
- Import APIs for kerberos-style profile configuration support.
- Add new APIs to support UserList identities.
- Add new APIs to support tabular output from command-line utilities.
+ - Convert vnode macros to inline-functions.
* Improved support for non-DES encryption types:
- Convert to Heimdal's hcrypto library to support RFC 3961.
- Provide per-opcode Rx statistics.
- Add an rx_opaque data type to support non-DES encryption types
and general code cleanup.
+ - Wake up the application thread after 'twind' is updated to avoid 100ms
+ transmit delays when the receive window transitions from closed to
+ open.
* Libraries (both internal and installed) are built using libtool, including
libuafs. The resulting shared libraries for libafsrpc and libafsauthent
- Link the Java API for OpenAFS with libuafs.a and remove the
libjuafs.a library.
- Always build the rxperf tool.
+ - Fix man-page generation by make after ./regen.sh -q
+ - Support the SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH environment variable to improve build
+ reproducibility.
+ - Modernize language specific SWIG typemaps for libuafs Perl bindings.
* Improvements to documentation:
- Document the new KeyFileExt file.
- Update the Admin Guide.
- Remove AIX, HP-UX, and IRIX information from the Quick Start Guide.
- Document the vldb and prdb (ubik) file formats.
+ - Add PtLog man page.
- Corrections and clarifications to man pages.
+ - Add ubik threading analysis doc.
* Improvements for troublshooting, debugging, and testing:
- Log more details on volume-server-to-fileserver communication errors
- Add the afsload tool to simulate multiple cache managers for file server
load testing.
- Add run-time checks for refcount imbalances in the cache manager.
+ - Fix missing newlines in afsd -debug output.
* Developer tool improvements:
- Improvements and fixes for rxgen (used to generate Rx RPC bindings).
- Add tool to find Unix cache manager lock identification numbers.
- Add an option for pretty build output.
+ * RPM packaging updated:
+ - Update the spec file to keep up with accumulated changes.
+ - Move the klog.krb5 man page to the openafs-krb5 sub-package.
+ - Prevent double-starting client on RHEL7
+ - Convert rpm spec file from deprecated 'make dest' to 'make install'.
+ - Fix rpmbuild command line option default handling.
+
* Add a new protection error code (PRNAMETOOLONG) instead of silently
truncating names which exceed the maximum name length (PR_MAXNAMELEN).
* Ubik servers using pthreads are now available and are used by default
+ * As part of improving Ubik reliability in certain edge cases, an extra
+ election cycle (about 60 seconds) may be needed before writes are
+ permitted. This is a conservative change that may be removed in
+ the future.
+
* Remove periodic background fsync by the fileserver (ihandle fsync thread).
* Fix potential file handle leak in the file server ihandle caching layer.
* Do not permit creation of users with id of ANONYMOUSID.
+ * Do not save/restore host states in the fsstate.dat file for hosts which
+ are in the process of retrieving CPS information from the ptserver when
+ the fileserver is being shutdown. This fixes a bug in which the fileserver
+ will incorrectly block all threads following a restart.
+
* Add the ptserver -restrict_anonymous option to inhibit exposure of user
names from the ptserver.
--enable-ubik-read-while-write configure option. This feature is not
considered ready for production usage at this time.
+ * Avoid filling the FileLog with "Volume x offline: not in service" when
+ a volume is administratively taken offline with vos offline.
+
+ * Print an error message when bosserver is started with an unknown
+ command line option.
+
+ * Modify the volume updateDate when the volume is changed by a salvage.
+
+ * Volume usage statistics are now preserved during reclone and restore
+ operations by default, the behavior previously enabled by
+ the -preserve-vol-stats flag to the volserver. The historical behavior
+ can be retained via the -clear-vol-stats argument.
+
All Client Platforms
+ * Use rxkad_crypt by default for connections to fileservers. This matches
+ the existing behavior of the Windows client and has been applied by
+ the distribution packaging on many platforms already.
+
* Add support for relative ACL changes with fs setacl. If a single plus (+)
or minus (-) character is appended to the rights' letters argument, the
new rights are computed relatively to the existing ones.
* Add the afsd -inumcalc option to specify the method used to calculate
inode numbers presented by AFS.
+ * Add the afsd -volume-ttl option to specify set the maximum amount of time
+ information retrieved from the vlserver will be cached, regardless of
+ callback expiry times.
+
* Return EIO on internal errors instead of the misleading ENOENT.
* Log ICMP errors received, if any, for unreachable servers.
* Fixes to the bypasscache feature.
+ * Fix fs getcacheparms miscounts.
+
* Remove the obsolete Netscape plugin.
Linux
* Fix dentry leak which can cause a crash on shutdown.
+ * Fix improper use of ENOENT and avoid incorrect use of linux negative
+ dentry cache.
+
* Improve error reporting when encountering corrupt directories.
* Improve rx error handling in the Linux cache manager.
* Add the sparc_linux26 sysname.
+ * Desupport 32-bit Linux kernels on s390/s390x.
+
+ * Fix Debian/Ubuntu build regression on kernel 3.16.39.
+
+ * Fix --enable-kernel-debug for linux 4.8+.
+
+ * Support linux 4.10, 4.11, 4.12
+
Solaris
* Remove support for all Solaris and SunOS platforms prior to Solaris 8.
* Build 64-bit binaries for Solaris x86 by default.
+ * Use one-group PAGs on Solaris 11, which is required for PAG support
+ on Solaris 11 since supplemental groups must be sorted starting with
+ Solaris 11.1.
+
+ * Update search paths for solaris cc for recent versions Solaris Studio.
+
+ * Modernize declaration of module dependences by converting from the
+ deprecated _depends_on symbol to ELF dependencies.
+
+ * Avoid BAD TRAP panic due to invalid opcodes on x86 with Studio 12.5.
+
MacOS
* Stop processing upcalls once rx shutdown starts.
* Add a syscall to enable/disable bulkstat at run-time, which is
disabled by default.
+ * Fix path to binaries in the prefpane.
+
+ * Fix builds on MacOS 10.12 by building only the active architecture
+ by default.
+
FreeBSD
* Use the native kernel module build system instead of an ad hoc
* Stay up to date with new FreeBSD releases (through 10.3).
+ * Do not claim AFS_VM_RDWR_ENV
+
NetBSD
* Stay up to date with new NetBSD releases (through 7.x)
* Build system updates for NetBDS 6.99.x

(These runtime options override the use of UID-based PAGs, which were
introduced to appease the CDE screensaver.)
+OpenAFS 1.6.21
+
+ All platforms
+
+ * Avoid a possible 100ms transmit delay in the RX protocol when a peer's
+ receive window transitions from closed to open (12627)
+
+ * Documentation improvements (12476 12477 12559[RT #133339])
+
+ All server platforms
+
+ * When bosserver is started with an unknown option, print an error message
+ and exit with a non-zero value rather than failing silently (12631)
+
+ All DB server platforms
+
+ * Hold the DB lock while checking for an aborted write transaction (12516)
+
+ All file server platforms
+
+ * On demand attach fileservers, don't save or restore a client's host
+ state if CPS ("Current Protection Subdomain") recalculation for it is
+ in progress, to avoid fileserver thread exhaustion (12568)
+
+ * On demand attach fileservers, avoid flooding the log with error messages,
+ which could happen when the fileserver was restarted while a volume was
+ offline (12569)
+
+ * Update a volume's "Last Update" time when its content is modified by
+ the salvager, to make the change visible in the output of "vos examine"

+ the "fs sysname" command on clients running afsd with -rmtsys (12607)
+
+ * Provide a new -inumcalc switch for afsd to allow enabling the alternative
+ MD5 method of inode number calculation, which was previously only
+ possible on Linux and through the sysctl interface (12608 12632)
+
+ Linux clients
+
+ * Support for mainline kernel 4.12 and distribution kernels with backports
+ from it (12624 12626)
+
+ * Re-added the improved algorithm for freeing unused vcaches to reduce
+ memory consumption first introduced with the 1.6.18 release, together
+ with a fix for the issue leading to its removal in 1.6.18.2 (12448..12451)

+OpenAFS 1.6.0pre2
+
+ All systems: Minor bugfixes.
+
+ ADDITIONAL CHANGES IN 1.6.0PRE2
+
+ All platforms:
+
+ - Documentation updates.
+
+ - Don't stop Rx keepalives after an ackall is received, avoiding
+ spurious connection timeouts. (128848)
+
+ - Don't retry Rx calls on channels returning busy errors. (128671)
+
+ - vos will not die with a double free error at command completion.
+
+ - Properly enable Rx connection hard timeouts.
+
+ - Initialize rx_multi lock before use.
+
+ - Avoid spurious crashes when initializing in "backup" client.
+
+ All unix platforms:
+
+ - Check for /afs existance before starting, unless -nomount is specified.
+
+ - Avoid a potential panic when using /afs/.:mount syntax.
+
+ - Avoid a panic in memcache mode due to missing CellItems file.
+
+ All server platforms:
+
+ - Attempt to recovery more quickly from timed out volume release
+ transactions.
+
+ - Auditing now properly byte order swaps IP addresses when printing.
+
+ - vos split now has improved error handling.
+
+ - Many changes to again support Windows fileservers.
+
+ - During volume removal, data removal speed improved.
+
+ - Improve CPU utilization during volume attaching by DAFS.
+
+ - In salvager check-only mode, avoid potentially fixing a vnode.
+
+ - Fix support for large (greater than 2gb) volume special files.
+
+ - Salvager will not crash if multiple or bad volume link tables
+ are encountered.
+
+ - Avoid erroneous full dump by remembering which sites were out of date
+ at the start of the release.
+
+ FreeBSD:
+
+ - Remove support for "Giant" lock as we no longer need to use it.
+
+ - Don't sleep with AFS GLOCK.
+
+ - Properly enable 64 bit long long support.
+
+ - Restore support for FreeBSD 7 (128612)
+
+ - Fix locking issues at shutdown.
+
+ Linux:
+
+ - support through kernel 2.6.38.
+
+ - RedHat packaging now properly supports RHEL6.
+
+ - Use rx_Readv in cache bypass to improve performance.
+
+ - Properly handle 0-length replies during cache bypass operations.
+
+ - Properly handle non-contiguous readpage cache bypass operations.
+
+ - Do proper locking when transitioning to or from cache bypass.
+
+ - Avoid extra runs of vcache freeing routine. (128756)
+
+ MacOS:
+
+ - Check for unloaded kernel extensions when decoding AFS panics.
+
+ - Properly handle setpag errors. PAGs are not supported.
+
+ - Disable "get tokens at login" in prefs pane if AD authentication
+ plugin is configured.
+
+ OpenBSD:
+
+ - support through OpenBSD 4.8.
+
+ Solaris:
+
+ - Fix support for Solaris pre-10.
+
+ Windows:
+
+ - afs_config will not longer set the Tray Icon State
+ in the registry if the checkbox is not present in
+ the dialog. (128591)
+
+ - AFS Explorer Shell Extension now works from folder
+ backgrounds. Overlays for mount points and symlinks
+ are present in the dll, but are not registered at present
+ by the installers.
+
+ - Do not use RankServerInterval registry value as the value for
+ PerformanceTuningInterval.
+
+ - When the data version of a mountpoint or symlink changes,
+ the target string in the cm_scache_t object must be cleared.
+
+ - "fs checkservers" now includes vldb servers in the output
+ and only lists multi-homed servers once. A multi-homed
+ server that has at least one up interface is no longer
+ considered to be down.
+
+ - When asynchronously storing dirty data buffers to the
+ file server ensure that (a) the cm_scache_t object and
+ the cm_buf_t object are for the same File ID so that
+ locking and signalling work properly; and (b) if the
+ FID no longer exists on the file server, do not panic,
+ just discard the buffer.
+
+ - When processing VNOVOL, VMOVED and VOFFLINE errors perform
+ server comparisons by UUID or address and not simply by
+ cm_server_t pointer. Otherwise, server failover may not
+ succeed.
+
+ - Do not preserve status information for cm_scache_t objects
+ when the issuing server is multi-homed.
+
+ - Giving up all callbacks when shutting down or suspending
+ the machine is now significantly faster due to the use
+ of an rx_multi implementation. (This functionality is
+ still off by default and must be activated by a registry
+ value.)
+
+ - Race conditions were possible when updating the state
+ of the cm_volume_t flags and when moving the volumes
+ within the least recently used list.
+
+ - Ensure that the lanahelper library does not perform a
+ NCBRESET of each lan adapter when enumerating the
+ current network bindings. Correcting this permits OpenAFS
+ to work on Windows 7 when the network adapter settings
+ change.
+
+ - Fix creation of mount points and symlinks as \\AFS\xxxx
+
+ PREVIOUS CHANGES:
+
+ All platforms:
+
+ - vos now properly deals with matching sites when servers are multihomed.

+
+ - Fix socket termination on shutdown.
+
+ - Support for 7.2, 7.3, 7.4 and 8.2 included.
+
+ - References to vcaches are no longer leaked during root or reclaim.
+

+
+ - Define llseek handler to avoid ESPIPE error in 2.6.37.
+
+ - Mount interface replaces get_sb (new for 2.6.37, not yet required).
+
+ - RedHat init script allows deferring for a new binary restart.
+
+ - DEFINE_MUTEX replaces DECLARE_MUTEX for 2.6.37.
+
+ MacOS:
+
+ - Correct return value from setpag syscall.
+
+ OpenBSD:
+
+ - Bug fixes for issues introduced previously in 1.5 series.
+
+ Solaris:
+
+ - Switch to ioctl() syscall replacement for Solaris 11 since syscall 65
+ is not safe.
