v1.99.9

I am pleased to announce the first release candidate of our future Corosync Needle 2.0.

Tarball is available immediately from our website at
http://www.corosync.org.

Because of change in srp_addr structure, this release is wire incompatible with Beta-6, so please make sure to update all cluster nodes.

List of changes between Beta-6 (1.99.8) and RC-2 (1.99.9):

Fabio M. Di Nitto (2):
      totemcrypto: major code cleanup (no functional or onwire changes)
      totemcrypt: fix build warning (unused variable)

Jan Friesse (3):
      Add no_addrs field in srp_addr structure
      Make ifaces_get work with dynamic no_rings
      Convert udpu example to use nodelist

As can be seen, list of changes are pretty short and hopefully RC-2 is last version before final release, so as usually, testers are more than welcomed. For testing, you need to install libqb version 0.11.1.

Thanks/congratulations to all people that contributed to achieve this
great milestone.

v1.99.8

I am pleased to announce the first release candidate of our future
Corosync Needle 2.0.

Tarball is available immediately from our website at
http://www.corosync.org.

Because we decided to make many changes which causes backwards incompatibility (API/ABI and on-wire), we decided to release another beta, rather then RC-2.

Just for sure, this means that you need to update all cluster nodes.

Biggest changes are:

• Removal of evil services. These was dummy handlers of OpenAIS services, and because OpenAIS is no longer actively maintained in upstream, they can be removed.
• Remove sync1 synchronization engine. This was here only for backwards compatibility. This also means, that old flag "compatibility" is also removed.
• Drop pload service. Pload service was internally used for testing of performance, but could cause hard crashes, incorrect behavior, ... Service as itself is gone, but you can use ploadstart script which does almost same thing.
• Remove EVS service. EVS service was not widely used, was incomplete and not function. Because it's behavior can be easily emulated in CPG, we decided to drop it and if needed in future, we will create libevs wrapper on top of cpg.
• Change internal numbers of services. This will cause wire incompatibility.
• Crypto rework:
  • We removed tomcrypt. Tomcypt is nice, small, ... library, but sadly we didn't updated it for long time (may cause serious crypto issues). Also NSS is FIPS certified, it's external library, has support for HW accelerated encryption and many other nice things. So we decided to stick only to NSS
  • Previous change also means, that ripmed encryption is gone, instead of that, we are using NSS AES256
  • Code which was using NSS has many many bugs fixed (various leaks, overflows, ...)
  • It's now possible to choose from wide array of hmac methods (md5, sha1, sha256, ...) and it should be very easy to add another cipher methods (for now, only AES256 is supported)

Complete list of changes between RC-1 (1.99.7) and Beta-6 (1.99.7):

release.

v1.99.0

I am more then pleased to announce the Alpha release of our future
Corosync Needle 2.0.

Tarball is available immediately from our website at
http://www.corosync.org.

It's almost impossible to write there all changes made in this wonderful
milestone, but in short major changes:

Migrate to libqb (https://github.com/asalkeld/libqb/wiki)

• Common features like IPC is now shared between Corosync and other
  projects, so it's probably better tested.
• Corosync is now single threaded (with exception of logging), so no
  longer problems with deadlock, race conditions, ... Also IPC speed
  should be better

OBJDB/CONFDB replaced by ICMAP/CMAP

• Significantly simplified API

Plugins are gone

• For creators of plugins it means, that code need to be built on top of
  CPG.

Votequorum improved

• Votequorum now contains almost all functionality of CMAN quorum
• Many new features implemented (auto_tie_breaker, wait_for_all, ...)

And many many other changes. Final release will contain much more
detailed list of changes.

Testers of this big milestone are more than welcomed. For testing, you
need to install libqb at least version 0.8.1. Another choice may be to
try Fedora Rawhide where Alpha should be available in next few days.

Thanks/congratulations to all people that contributed to achieve this
great release.
