[OpenAFS-devel] OpenAFS Release Team weekly meeting

[Michael Meffie]

OpenAFS Release Team weekly meeting

Date: January 19, 2023
Participants:
- Stephan Wiesand, OpenAFS Release Manager
- Ben Kaduk
- Cheyenne Wills
- Michael Meffie

The OpenAFS Release Team meetings are held on IRC each Thursday at 16:00 UTC
on the #openafs-releaseteam channel of Libera.Chat.

Stable (1.8.x)
==============

Changes for the next stable release (1.8.10) are available in gerrit
as a linear set of patches. The top gerrit is 15281. More changes
are in progress before 1.8.10pre1 is released.

The release team whiteboard https://wiki.openafs.org/devel/Whiteboard/
was updated by Cheyenne.
Added to stable wish list:
 - 14085 afs: Properly type afs_osi_suser cred arg

Stephan started merging the changes for 1.8.10, but found some gerrit comments
that should be resolved first.  Gerrit 15283 and 15282 (master) are attempts to
resolve those comments.

15283: afs: check for non-NULL before memset in afs_LookupName
  - Ben merged to master after an update.
  - Cheyenne to rebase 14670 on top of 15283, since 15283 is blocking stable
    and 14670 is a far more extensive change

15284: LINUX: avoid compilation error in osi_vcache.c
  - adds AFS_LINUX_ENV ifdefs in a file which should always have that defined.
15285: afs: Define osi_ShouldDeferRemunlink() for each platform
  - alternative to 15284

14918: LINUX 5.13: set .proc_lseek in proc_ops
  - Merged on master by Ben
  - To be pulled up to stable

Wiesand identified more candidates to be pulled up to master, to
be covered next week.

Cheyenne reports linux 6.1-rc4+ -- clean builds with master and 1.8.10pre1ish

Development (1.9.x/master)
==========================

Several commits merged on master today so they can be pulled up
to stable.
