- Fix Proxmox 9.0 support (remove some kind of a whitelist added in upstream)
New features:
- Add a new kernel device mounting method: [ublk](https://vitastor.io/docs/usage/ublk.html).
It's the fastest method for random IOPS, and it's on par with VDUSE for linear MB/s.
- Disable io_uring waits being reported as iowait on kernels which support it (6.15+)
- Allow to enforce permissions at the VitastorFS NFS server side
- Add qemu_file_mirror_path option to the config to allow to trick Veeam and make it work

- Use default uid and gid from NFS AUTH_SYS when creating files
- Fix object bitmaps supposedly & possibly being corrupted in some rare cases with EC N+2+

- Fix "trigger event loop automatically" API version check in the QEMU driver
- Add Content-Type header for prometheus metrics
- Add a patch for libvirt 11.5
- Fix a bug introduced in 2.2.0 - pg_locks weren't disabled for pools without local_reads
correctly which could lead to inactive pools during various operations
- Fix an old bug where OSDs could send sub-operations to incorrect peer OSDs when their
connections were stopped and reestablished quickly, in 2.2.0 it was usually leading
to "sequencing broken" messages in OSD logs
- Fix debug use_sync_send_recv mode
- Fix vitastor-disk purge broken after adding the "OSD is still running" check
- Fix iothreads hanging after adding zero-copy send support
- Fix enabling localized reads online (without restarting OSDs) in the default PG lock mode
New features:
- [Localized read support](https://vitastor.io/docs/config/pool.html#local_reads) for multi-datacenter setups.
- io_uring-based [zero-copy send support](https://vitastor.io/docs/config/network.html#min_zerocopy_send_size) -
read the instruction carefully for optimal performance!
- Improve and speedup data distribution, especially in cases of very large hosts (100 OSD+).
Previously, PG optimization speed depended on the number of OSDs, now it only depends on
the number of failure domains. Distribution over specific OSDs is now also more even and
becomes strictly more even when you increase the number of PGs.
- Add a [very interesting instruction](https://vitastor.io/en/docs/usage/nfs.html#linux-nfs-write-size) to change NFS_MAX_FILE_IO_SIZE
- Check operation sequencing and stop connections when it breaks - should help catch some
very rare RDMA packet loss problems.
- `vitastor-cli rm-osd` now refuses to remove OSDs which are still up and suggests to use `vitastor-disk purge`.
- Allow removal of direntries referring non-existent in VitastorFS.
- Change default vitastor-etcd data dir to /var/lib/etcd/vitastor.
Bug fixes:
- Fix compatibility with ISA-L 2.31+. ⚠️Very important: please upgrade Vitastor before upgrading ISA-L to 2.31+.
- Fix in-memory state cleanup for incomplete PGs.
- Fix monitor crash with non-existent node_placement nodes.
- Slightly speedup `vitastor-kv dump` command by adding output buffering.
- Fix theoretically possible slowdowns in OSD sub-operation failure handling code.
- Fix very rare stack overflows in vitastor-kv.
- Fix a possible crash in VitastorFS during handling of file creation race condition.
- Fix modify-pool -s PG_SIZE which didn't work without --pg_minsize.
- Fix marking peer OSDs as alive on receiving data from them via RDMA - in theory,
the bug could result in instability with RDMA under high load with slow disks.
- Fix a rare OSD crash due to double handle_primary_subop() call.
- Fix latency aggregation in global stats (/vitastor/stats in etcd) - do not sum it.
- Hide "Ran out of journal space" log messages by default.
- Wait for RDMA-CM EVENT_ESTABLISHED after rdma_accept(), handle rdma_accept() before acking the event.
- Fix VitastorFS total & free numbers multiplied by extra 2.
- Fix systemd unit name in make-etcd.
- Do not allow reweight > 1 in vitastor-cli modify-osd.
- Fix docker build.
New features:
- Support separate OSD cluster network - [osd_cluster_network](https://vitastor.io/docs/config/network.html#osd_cluster_network)
and, in general, multiple OSD networks, including RDMA
- Add an alternative RDMA implementation via RDMA-CM - [use_rdmacm](https://vitastor.io/docs/config/network.html#use_rdmacm),
required for iWARP and, maybe, for some IB setups (but not for RoCE)
- Change default PG behaviour to wait for all "up" OSDs to be connected before starting it.
The old behaviour may be returned by enabling a new [allow_net_split](https://vitastor.io/docs/config/osd.html#allow_net_split)
option.
- Add a patch for QEMU 9.2
Bug fixes:
- Fix incorrect "has_xxx" PG state names in ls-pgs

- Fall back to TCP on RDMA connection failures
- Add missing logging of RDMA ibv_modify_qp() errors
- Add a minimum interval for etcd_state_client to reload state
No breaking features, it's 2.0.0 just because it includes S3 and because
there are already too many 1.x releases :).
New features:
- S3 is finally available: https://vitastor.io/docs/installation/s3.html
- node.js addon is now packaged as a Debian package
- Support listing PGs by OSDs in `vitastor-cli ls-pgs`
- Implement offline TRIM support: [vitastor-disk trim](https://vitastor.io/docs/usage/disk.html#trim),
[discard_on_start](https://vitastor.io/docs/config/osd.html#discard_on_start)
- Change used_for_fs pool option to used_for_app
Bug fixes:
- Fix several bugs in the node.js addon (a memory leak, an incorrectly triggered event loop)
- Fix a client crash (vitastor-cli rm) during deletion when writeback is enabled
- Fix PG object count statistics on deletion of non-existing objects
- Fix vitastor-nbd crash when mapping by ID instead of inode name
- Fix a client memory leak with enabled immediate_commit and write-back cache
- Add seccomp=unconfined for vitastor docker OSDs to not break io_uring
- Add udev and systemd to vitastor docker image
- Fix upgrading from pre-0.7.1 (very old) systemd units O_o
- Fix total object count calculation in rm_data
New features:
- Support containerized Vitastor installations: http://vitastor.io/docs/installation/docker.html
- Add new functions to the node.js binding: delete(), get_immediate_commit(), on_ready(),
get_min_io_size(), get_max_atomic_write_size()
- S3 (Zenko Cloudserver with Vitastor support) is coming shortly and will be released separately
Bug fixes:
- Use IP-derived etcd node names in make-etcd
- Set short name of the OSD process to display in `top`
- Fix snap-create without pool_id failing when there are multiple pools
- Several bugs are fixed in the write-back cache, it should now be stable:
- Fix incorrect snapshot reads from dirty write-back cache
- Do not try to repeat pending writebacks on OSD reconnections
- Fix client hangs with multiple SYNCs in the writeback queue
- Fix client hangs do to incorrect calculation of the writeback queue size
- Several improvements for NBD mapping/unmapping:
- Add a workaround for race condition in the Linux kernel NBD driver leading
to vitastor-nbd sometimes breaking a previously mapped device instead of
setting up a new one
- Check if the device is actually mapped in vitastor-nbd unmap
- Fix device name/number validation in vitastor-nbd
- Fix OSD crashes after starting with corrupted metadata - from now it will skip
corrupted metadata entries and heal itself
- Fix scrubbing of misplaced objects and object state recalculation after
vitastor-cli fix - previously, an OSD restart could be required to fix object states
- Make primary OSD distribution more stable by using murmur3 hash instead of the old pseudo-rng
- Fix monitor sometimes racing with itself - do not touch /pool/stats from stats
aggregation if PG recheck is active
- Sort vitastor-cli ls output by name by default
- Update antietcd to 1.1.2
New features:
- Add "deleted" image flag which is set when vitastor-cli rm starts to delete an image,
but can't delete it fully due to inactive PGs or stopped OSDs
- Support JSON output in vitastor-disk prepare and purge
- Show backfillfull pools in vitastor-cli status
- Make object listings consistent (used in vitastor-cli rm/rm-data/merge/etc).
This means that there is now a guarantee that if a data block is present when you invoke rm,
rm will attempt to delete it, even if rm is invoked when the PG switches state. Previously in
such cases rm could skip and leave some objects behind as garbage, and merge probably could
incorrectly move data between snapshots.
- Make deletions (rm/rm-data) consistent. This means that rm/rm-data will either complete
successfully and delete all requested image data or complete with an error if some objects
could not be deleted or if there is a possibility that some data is left on stopped OSDs.
Previously, when some PGs or OSDs were inactive at the moment of deletion, rm-data was
behaving incorrectly: it wasn't retrying deletions failed due to dropped OSD connections,
it could hang waiting for PGs to activate, and it could return with a successful error
code while some garbage was still possibly left on some OSDs. Deletions are not fully atomic
cluster-wide yet, which means that you still have to repeat the deletion request after you
return stopped OSDs back, but now you always know for sure if you have to repeat it.

- Fix OSDs crashing again when the cluster is full with EC (was meant to work since 1.6.0 but didn't)
- Improve logging of subop failures
New features:
- Implement basic VitastorFS support in [CSI](https://vitastor.io/docs/installation/kubernetes.html)
- Implement [NFS RDMA](https://vitastor.io/docs/usage/nfs.html#rdma) support
- Pause pool rebalance when monitor detects that it can lead to any OSD becoming full ([osd_backfillfull_ratio](https://vitastor.io/docs/config/monitor.html#osd_backfillfull_ratio))
- Auto-select correct [RDMA device and GID](https://vitastor.io/docs/config/network.html#rdma_device) based on osd_network and RoCEv2 priority
- Report slow ops in OSD stats in etcd and show them in vitastor-cli status
Bug fixes:

- Support simple forms of vitastor-disk {dump,write}-{meta,journal} for OSD partitions
Bug fixes:
- Fix block RWX volumes broken after introducing stage/unstage support
- Do not allow to create non-block RWX volumes in CSI
- Fix vitastor-disk prepare not seeing the newly created partition in rare cases

Hotfixes for OpenNebula and upgrade hotfix for 1.7
- Fix deploy.vitastor, save.vitastor, restore.vitastor scripts not working for nodes other than master oned
- Fix deploy.vitastor not working for VMs without Vitastor disks
- Disable clearing old PG configuration when upgrading from 1.7 or older versions (it was breaking old clients)
Bugfix release, would be 1.7.2, but etcd layout changes mandate it to be 1.8.0. :-)
- Change etcd layout: /config/pgs is now /pg/config, /pg/stats/* is now /pgstats/*.
This is required to fix a rare PG history tracking issue caused by non-atomic
delivery of etcd events sometimes resulting in `incomplete` objects in EC pools
after mass OSD restarts. Upgrading can be performed freely, downgrade requires
additional action: [1.8.0 to 1.7.1](https://git.yourcmc.ru/vitalif/vitastor/src/branch/master/docs/usage/admin.en.md#1-8-0-to-1-7-1)
- Fix a rare client hang on PG primary OSD switch
- Fix vitastor-nfs started using mount command sometimes not stopping automatically after unmount
- Fix vitastor-nfs mounts started using mount command sometimes hanging after daemonizing
- Fix merge/flatten into a pool with different object size (image migration between pools case)
- Do not print extra "PG disappeared after reload" verbose log messages for non-existing PGs
- Fix clustered Antietcd support and persistence filter
- Do not try to purge the same OSD multiple times if its multiple devices are passed to purge
- Various node.js binding fixes
A bunch of monitor fixes
- Add noout flag for OSDs (/vitastor/config/osd/xx)
- Fix "effective" size of degraded PGs (and thus "used space") calculation in monitor
- Fix monitor not clearing PGs of deleted pools
- Fix incorrect PG generation with hosts with 0 OSDs

- Fix monitor crashing when node_placement included non-existing OSDs
- Fix possible data movement after removing OSDs reweighted to 0
- Remove extra empty keys from pool configurations created by vitastor-cli create-pool
- Fix 32-bit build
New features:
- Implement "hierarchical failure domains" and other complex distribution rules, for example
EC 4+2 over 3 DC, with 2 chunks per each DC ([documentation](docs/config/pool.en.md#level_placement))
- Make OSDs handle ENOSPC - now cluster stays online even if some OSDs fill up
to 100 %, only writes requiring free space hang
- Implement Stage/Unstage & volume locking for CSI to prevent parallel mounting
and/or modifications of the same volume
- Warn about full and almost full OSDs in vitastor-cli status
- Add an experimental NBD netlink map mode as an option ([documentation](docs/usage/nbd.en.md))
- Add --pg parameter to vitastor-cli describe, print objects with 0x in human-readable format too
- Add [administration docs](docs/usage/admin.en.md)
Bug fixes:
- Fix client operation retry timeout - previously the timeout wasn't applied and writes were
retries almost instantly
- Fix monitors crashing on invalid pool configurations
- Fix journaling - make each journal write wait for all previous journal writes
- Fix monitor thinking that OSD weight is 0 after deleting /osd/config/ key online
- Fix a write stall caused by flusher possibly not trimming journal on rollback
- Set 32k csum_block_size for HDD by default in vitastor-disk
After half a year of hard work, VitastorFS is finally here ! :-)
New features:
- VitastorFS, a full-featured clustered (read-write-many) file system.
Documentation: [VitastorFS](docs/usage/nfs.en.md)
- Embedded key-value database implementation based on Parallel Optimistic B-Tree
algorithm and used for the metadata of VitastorFS
- Pool management commands in vitastor-cli (create-pool, list-pools, rm-pool, modify-pool).
Thanks MIND Software (https://mindsw.io) for their contribution!
[Documentation](docs/usage/cli.en.md#create-pool)
Bug fixes:
- Fix a very rare "infinite loop" in the client library
- Fix a rare OSD hang on during start when zeroing out bad metadata entries left from the previous run
- Do not use \r if output is not a terminal (should fix unexpected job output in proxmox)
- Fix rm/rm-data error return code, add --down-ok option to bypass the error
- Add EIO retry timeout and allow to disable these retries, rename up_wait_retry_interval to client_retry_interval
- Add ubuntu jammy build
- Wait for blockstore initialisation before starting OSD (prevent timeouts when init takes time)
- Fix a rare use-after-free in automatic sync after delete in blockstore
- Fix another old "BUG: Attempt to overwrite used offset" in a very simple
case: bs=4k rw=write iodepth=16 from OSD start; add this case to tests
- Fix a rare crash with "unexpected state during flush: 0x51" possible with
EC since 1.4.2 during rebalance and OSD outages
- Fix a rare write stall with EC & immediate_commit=none caused by sync
operations reserving unneeded space in the journal
- Fix 32-bit build warnings, most in printf/scanf format strings
Unwavering stabilization of 1.4.x, continued :-)
- Include the accidentally lost part of 1.4.5 journal trimming fix
- Fix a possible OSD crash with "BUG: Attempt to overwrite used offset"
which was probably present for long time, but became apparent after
fixing flapping tests in CI
- Fix remaining flapping tests in CI. It was the first time when tests
actually passed without retries :-)
- Fix a write stall caused by incorrect journal trimming introduced in 1.4.4 :)
- Fix PGs sometimes hanging in "starting" state on mass OSD restarts
- Fix a rare crash with "map::at" during OSD pings
- Use new defaults for non-capacitor (desktop) SSDs - improves T1Q256 random write from ~6k iops to ~45k iops
- Make journal_trim_interval configurable
