v0.7.4
======
- Update this file ;)
v0.7.3
======
- Improve error messages if XML given as input to tools that expect metadata.
There seems to be some confusion between XML and the metadata.
- Add --override-mapping-root debug option to thin_dump. This can be useful
when investigating damaged metadata.
- More functional tests.
v0.7.2
======
- Fix segfault in restore tools when given a tiny metadata file (< 4k).
- Lots more work on the functional tests.
- Fix a couple of unit test regressions
- Man page updates.
- Rewrite man pages in a text format. Simpler than writing directly in nroff.
v0.7.1
======
- Fix a few bugs in block_cache.
- Ditch Ruby/Cucumber for the functional tests. Now written in Scheme.
- Be more aggressive about flushing dirty blocks from the block cache. Very
little performance impact.
- Optimisations in space_map_disk (small performance improvement for restore
tools).
v0.7.0
======
- switch to C++11. This may cause problems with v. old versions of g++.
- support cache metadata format 2
- support custom emitter plugins for thin_dump.
- thin_dump --dev-id; allows the user to dump just the devices they're
interested in.
- cache_writeback; Use for offline decommission of a cache.
- thin_scan/thin_ll_dump/restore dev tools.
- --enable-dev-tools configure option. Use this for the extra tools.
- thin_delta, various bug fixes.
- various changes to the block cache.
- thin_show_duplicates; a development only tool that scans block devices to
calculate the level of data duplication. Uses either fixed block sizes or
context sensitive.
v0.6.3
======
- Improve error messages if output file doesn't exist or is tiny.

v0.6.2
======
2016-02-17 17:20:59 +05:30
- Fix bug in thin_delta
- Fix recent regression in thin_repair.
- Force g++-98 dialect

v0.6.1
======
2016-02-10 19:58:49 +05:30
Fix bug in thin_dump when using metadata snaps.
2016-02-04 20:59:47 +05:30
2016-01-20 21:13:21 +05:30
v0.6.0
======
thin_ls
2015-09-08 14:50:42 +05:30
v0.5.6
======
era_invalidate may be run on live metadata if the --metadata-snap option is given.
v0.5.5
======
You may now give the --metadata_snap option to thin_delta without specifying where the snap is.
2015-08-13 18:20:36 +05:30
Update man pages to make it clearer that most tools shouldn't be run on live metadata.
Fix some bugs in the metadata reference counting for thin_check.
2015-06-25 15:20:29 +05:30
v0.5.1
======
Fix bug where the tools would crash if given a very large metadata
device to restore to.

v0.5
====
- thin_delta, thin_trim
2015-06-22 16:32:16 +05:30
- --clear-needs-check flag for cache_check
- space map checking for thin check
2015-03-24 19:39:36 +05:30
2014-08-05 16:51:06 +05:30
v0.4
====
- All tools switch to using libaio. This gives a large performance
boost, especially to the write focused tools like thin_restore.
- Added a progress monitor to thin_restore, cache_restore and era_restore
2014-08-05 16:51:06 +05:30
- Added a --quiet/-q option to *_restore to turn off the progress bar
2014-08-05 16:51:06 +05:30
- Removed variable hint size support from cache tools. The kernel
still only supports a fixed 32bit width. This will have a side
effect of reducing the executable sizes due to less template
instatiation.
2014-08-27 18:38:06 +05:30
- Tools rolled into a single executable to save space.
2014-09-01 20:15:29 +05:30
- Fixed some bugs when walking bitsets (possibly effecting cache_dump
2017-10-09 16:09:34 +05:30
and cache_check).
