[Lustre-discuss] Announce: Lustre 1.8.4 is available!
Hi all,
Lustre 1.8.4 is available on the Oracle Download Center Site.
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/indexes/downloads/sun-az-index-095901.html#L
The change log can be read here:
http://wiki.lustre.org/index.php/Use:Change_Log_1.8
Here are some items that may interest you in this release:
* Changes to support matrix
- Update RHEL5.5 kernel to 2.6.18-194.3.1.el5
Update OEL5.5 kernel to 2.6.18-194.3.1.0.1.el5.
https://bugzilla.lustre.org/show_bug.cgi?id=22514
- Add support for OFED 1.5.1.
https://bugzilla.lustre.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20619
NOTE: RHEL5 & OEL5 rpms provided on the download site
are built against the in-kernel OFED driver.
* Significant Bugs
- Fix bug in orphan recovery which can cause the same OST
object to be allocated to two different files.
https://bugzilla.lustre.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17485
- Fix multiple issues related to the grant space. The
problem manifests itself as an OST failing write
requests with ENOSPC while some free space remains.
https://bugzilla.lustre.org/show_bug.cgi?id=22755
- The dlm_locks slab can grow significantly and consumes
a lot of memory on the server. This is fixed by imposing
an hardlimit to grant_plan.

Hi, I generated v1_8_2 tag build area and v1_8_4 tag build area from the git tree. The kernel_patches/series/2.6-rhel5.series in both areas are identical, and each patch listed in the series file are identical using ''diff''. Isn''t there any new lustre kernel patch against rhel5.5 committed between these two releases? All patches were rolled into kernel-2.6.18-194.3.1.el5 already?
