An update that has three recommended fixes can now be
installed. It includes one version update.
Description:
This update updates the Distributed Replicated Block Device
(DRBD) component of SLES HAE 11 SP3 to version 8.4.4,
providing many fixes and enhancements.
Changes included in the user land packages:
* New drbd-proxy option "bwlimit"; allow proxy options
on host level
* crm-fence-peer: less cib polling, peer-alive
detection using crmadmin, and other improvements
* ocf ra: avoid too tight pacemaker driven recovery
loop on failed promote, implement adjust_master_score
parameter
* drbdadm adjust now deals with IP-address changes
correctly
* Make sure old binary paths are still accessible.
Changes included in the kernel modules:
* Fix potential deadlock when concurrently fencing and
establishing a connection
* Fix potential distributed deadlock during verify or
resync
* Fix decoding of bitmap vli rle for device sizes > 64
TB
* Fix for deadlock when using automatic
split-brain-recovery
* Only fail empty flushes if no good data is reachable
* Avoid to shrink max_bio_size due to peer
re-configuration
* Fix resume-io after reconnect with broken fence-peer
handler
* Fix too large bursts for very slow resync rates
* Don't let application IO throttle resync to a stall
* Fix a hole in the challenge-response implementation
* Fix a theoretical IO deadlock (only triggers with
unusual small AL i.e. 7)
* Fix attaching to disks with fixed size external
meta-data (bnc#833764)
* Fix NULL pointer deref in module init error path
(bnc#825657)
* Fix a crash when the connection broke at a very exact
point in time while a graceful disconnect executes
* Support for REQ_DISCARD
* Allow parallel promote/demote
* Allow online changing of al-stripes and
al-stripe-size with the resize command.
