- Remove an additional data copy operation when flushing journal (should
slightly increase write performance)
- Fix a bug where new writes in the inmemory_journal=false mode could overwrite
the data currently read by a parallel read operation
- Fix degraded parity writes for EC N+K when K>1 where the bug could also lead
to an "assertion failed" error
- Fix missing journal space check for "big" writes which could lead to
"prefill_single_journal_entry(): assertion failed..." error in OSD
- Fix possible "assertion failed: next->prev_wait >= 0" in client in rare cases
- Fix missing "len" field in vitastor-disk write-journal big_writes
- Fix possible crash of a full OSD (ENOSPC)
- Fix CSI build scripts to include newest packages every time
- Fix CSI endpoint in the liveness probe manifest
- Implement automatic OSD activation via udev and simple on-disk superblock storage
- Add a new `vitastor-disk` tool and merge all disk-related functionality there.
Now it can prepare new OSD disks, upgrade plain old systemd units to the new scheme,
resize OSD data area, manage OSD services by disk paths, manage superblocks,
automatically check and disable disk cache, dump and write back journal and metadata.
- Add a documentation section about `vitastor-disk` (read it if you want details!)
- Install systemd services during package installation instead of the older method
of manually creating them via separate shell scripts
- Add a new `make-etcd` script that reuses /etc/vitastor/vitastor.conf to configure etcd
- Allow to configure block_size, bitmap_granularity and immediate_commit per-pool
- Fix "fatal error: tried to overwrite non-zero metadata entry" which was possible
in some cases after unclean OSD shutdown (caused by old metadata entries not being zeroed)
