Changes[edit]

Since 042stab053.5:

  • [procfs] [major] make reading /proc/mounts consistent. Now we should get much less timeouts on CT stops. [PSBM-12119]
  • [ext4] [major] online resize has been significantly enhanced [PSBM-12197]
  • [timer] [minor] kmemsize leaks for 5457 has been fixed [PSBM-11885]
  • [oom] [major] now OOM can effectively struggle against fork bombs [PSBM-11920]
  • 5 possible memory leaks were fixed in various places, found internally
  • [bridge] [minor] kernel panic in bridge code in case NAT rules are configured improperly [PSBM-11782]
  • [cpt] [minor] kernel panic in case a dead task gets into cpt image [PCLIN-30811]
  • [cpt] [minor] we do align the size of cpt image. Online migration could fail due to tar which exits before reading the align tail. [PCLIN-30804]
  • [fuse] [major] FUSE improvements:
    • write-back cache support;
    • O_DIRECT support;
    • AIO support;
    • dentry cache revalidation timeout turn off;
    • All the new features are turned on/off via /proc/sys/fs/fuse_ext_caps sysctl. When off (default), the existing behavior doesn't change.
  • [ploop] [minor] possible deadlock detected by lockdep fixed [PSBM-12210]
