[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



nilfs-utils-2.1.4 was released on:

 http://www.nilfs.org/en/download.html

Main changes from nilfs-utils-2.1.3 are as follows:

 * umount.nilfs2: use binary exponential backoff for waiting for
   cleanerd's shutdown in order to speed up "umount".  Previously,
   umount.nilfs2 took one or more seconds.  This shortens the time to
   milli-seconds order.

 * mount.nilfs2: fix wrong error handling in a mount routine; this
   fixes the bug that "gcpid=" attribute was not updated properly in
   the mtab file when cleanerd restarted after a rw->ro or a rw->rw
   remount.  The bug was causing busy errors of successive unmount
   because of mismatch of the cleanerd's process id.

 * nilfs-resize: do not use sync() system call.  This reduces
   unnecessary disk io resulting from system-wide synchronizations.

 * nilfs-resize: fix early give-up of fs-shrinking.

 * mount.nilfs2 (non-libmount version): support context, fscontext,
   defcontext, and rootcontext SELinux mount options.  This feature is
   optional, which is applied only when "--with-selinux" new
   configuration option is specified.  Note that these options are
   already supported in another mount.nilfs2 using libmount.
