| v0.9.0
 | |
| ======
 | |
| 
 | |
| - New support tools: thin_metadata_{pack,unpack}.
 | |
| - thin_check now checks data block reference counts.
 | |
| - thin_check can now check metadata snapshots.
 | |
| - some metadata space map bug fixes.
 | |
| 
 | |
| v0.7.5
 | |
| ======
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Fix a bug that stopped cache_restore working with metadata version 2.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 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
 | |
| ======
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Fix bug in thin_delta
 | |
| - Fix recent regression in thin_repair.
 | |
| - Force g++-98 dialect
 | |
| - Fix bug in thin_trim
 | |
| 
 | |
| v0.6.1
 | |
| ======
 | |
| 
 | |
| Fix bug in thin_dump when using metadata snaps.
 | |
| 
 | |
| v0.6.0
 | |
| ======
 | |
| 
 | |
| thin_ls
 | |
| 
 | |
| 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.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 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.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 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
 | |
| - --clear-needs-check flag for cache_check
 | |
| - space map checking for thin check
 | |
| 
 | |
| 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
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Added a --quiet/-q option to *_restore to turn off the progress bar
 | |
| 
 | |
| - 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.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Tools rolled into a single executable to save space.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Fixed some bugs when walking bitsets (possibly effecting cache_dump
 | |
|   and cache_check).
