[DRBD-announce] drbd-9.0.9rc2

[Philipp Reisner]

Hi,

due to a number of regressions with the rc1 tag, and more "old" bugs,
we decided to do one more rc before this becomes a final release.

  This release will be very important for users that have diskless,
  primary nodes in their setups.

9.0.9rc2-1 (api:genl2/proto:86-112/transport:14)
--------
 * in a cluster with a diskless primary, when a server goes away,
   and is not outdated, outdate it upon reconnect. This gets done
   when it's current UUID does not match the diskless primaries
   exposed data UUID; with this bug present it can lead to
   inconsistent data presented on the diskless primary node to
   readers
 * fix update of exposed data UUID on diskless primaries. It could
   lead to false reject of futher diskfull secondaries that
   want to join

9.0.9rc1-1 (api:genl2/proto:86-112/transport:14)
--------
 * fix occasionally forgotten resyncs in installations where
   diskless primaries are present. The bug tigers when a storage
   node is re-integrated, and it happens to connect to the diskless
   primary first; This bug is severe, since it might cause inconsistent
   data read back on the diskless primary!
 * fix a possible OOPS when in a debug message regarding bitmap
   locking
 * fix discard bigger than 1MiB; The bug causes disconnect with
   bigger discard requests
 * fix an issue that causes unexpected split-brain situations upon
   connect. This issue triggers only when one of the node has a
   node_id bigger than 3.
 * fix left over bits in bitmap on SyncSource after resync; the
   issue was triggered by write requests that come in while the
   resync starts
 * fix peers becoming unexpectedly displayed as D_OUTDATED at the
   end of a resync; While the disk state on the node stays D_UP_TO_DATE
 * fix a race between auto promote and auto demote of multiple volumes
   in a single resource; The symptom was that the a process opening
   the /dev/drbdX for read-write gets an -EROFS errno
