Hello,
here goes multipath-tools-0.3.5
As expected, 0.3.4 was still cutting at the edges, so this is a bugfix oriented
release. Thanks for the feedback so far.
Note the changes to udev config files : they need updating
Note the unproven 2.6.10-rc1+ new dependency for SG_IO ioctl on bdevs.
Full ChangeLog for the release :
* [multipathd] fix broken test for path going up or shaky
that kept executing multipath when it shouldn't
* change multipath.dev to exit early when udev' DEVNAME is
a devmap (/dev/dm-*). This avoids a recursion case when
the kernel devmapper keeps removing a map after multipath
configures it.
* change multipath.rules to follow the new -D synthax
* [multipath] "-D major minor" synthax changed to
"-D major:minor" to match the sysfs attribute value.
This change removes a few translations in multipath and
multipathd.
* [multipath] fix segfault in test if conf->dev is a devmap
(the one forwarded by MikeAnd)
* SG_IO ioctl seem to work in lk 2.6.10+, so remove all sg
device knowledge and advertise (here) the new dependency.
* [multipath] remove unused do_tur()
* [multipath] fix sort_pg_by_summed_prio(), and don't add up
failed path priority
