+
+v0.87 Giant
+===========
+
+This release will form the basis for the stable release Giant,
+v0.87.x. Highlights for Giant include:
+
+* *RADOS Performance*: a range of improvements have been made in the
+ OSD and client-side librados code that improve the throughput on
+ flash backends and improve parallelism and scaling on fast machines.
+* *CephFS*: we have fixed a raft of bugs in CephFS and built some
+ basic journal recovery and diagnostic tools. Stability and
+ performance of single-MDS systems is vastly improved in Giant.
+ Although we do not yet recommend CephFS for production deployments,
+ we do encourage testing for non-critical workloads so that we can
+ better gauge the feature, usability, performance, and stability
+ gaps.
+* *Local Recovery Codes*: the OSDs now support an erasure-coding scheme
+ that stores some additional data blocks to reduce the IO required to
+ recover from single OSD failures.
+* *Degraded vs misplaced*: the Ceph health reports from 'ceph -s' and
+ related commands now make a distinction between data that is
+ degraded (there are fewer than the desired number of copies) and
+ data that is misplaced (stored in the wrong location in the
+ cluster). The distinction is important because the latter does not
+ compromise data safety.
+* *Tiering improvements*: we have made several improvements to the
+ cache tiering implementation that improve performance. Most
+ notably, objects are not promoted into the cache tier by a single
+ read; they must be found to be sufficiently hot before that happens.
+* *Monitor performance*: the monitors now perform writes to the local
+ data store asynchronously, improving overall responsiveness.
+* *Recovery tools*: the ceph_objectstore_tool is greatly expanded to
+ allow manipulation of an individual OSDs data store for debugging
+ and repair purposes. This is most heavily used by our QA
+ infrastructure to exercise recovery code.
+
+Upgrade Sequencing
+------------------
+
+* If your existing cluster is running a version older than v0.80.x
+ Firefly, please first upgrade to the latest Firefly release before
+ moving on to Giant. We have not tested upgrades directly from
+ Emperor, Dumpling, or older releases.
+
+ We *have* tested:
+
+ * Firefly to Giant
+ * Dumpling to Firefly to Giant
+
+* Please upgrade daemons in the following order:
+
+ #. Monitors
+ #. OSDs
+ #. MDSs and/or radosgw
+
+ Note that the relative ordering of OSDs and monitors should not matter, but
+ we primarily tested upgrading monitors first.
+
+Upgrading from v0.80x Firefly
+-----------------------------
+
+* The client-side caching for librbd is now enabled by default (rbd
+ cache = true). A safety option (rbd cache writethrough until flush
+ = true) is also enabled so that writeback caching is not used until
+ the library observes a 'flush' command, indicating that the librbd
+ users is passing that operation through from the guest VM. This
+ avoids potential data loss when used with older versions of qemu
+ that do not support flush.
+
+ leveldb_write_buffer_size = 8*1024*1024 = 33554432 // 8MB
+ leveldb_cache_size = 512*1024*1204 = 536870912 // 512MB
+ leveldb_block_size = 64*1024 = 65536 // 64KB
+ leveldb_compression = false
+ leveldb_log = ""
+
+ OSDs will still maintain the following osd-specific defaults:
+
+ leveldb_log = ""
+
+* The 'rados getxattr ...' command used to add a gratuitous newline to the attr
+ value; it now does not.
+
+* The ``*_kb perf`` counters on the monitor have been removed. These are
+ replaced with a new set of ``*_bytes`` counters (e.g., ``cluster_osd_kb`` is
+ replaced by ``cluster_osd_bytes``).
+
+* The ``rd_kb`` and ``wr_kb`` fields in the JSON dumps for pool stats (accessed
+ via the ``ceph df detail -f json-pretty`` and related commands) have been
+ replaced with corresponding ``*_bytes`` fields. Similarly, the
+ ``total_space``, ``total_used``, and ``total_avail`` fields are replaced with
+ ``total_bytes``, ``total_used_bytes``, and ``total_avail_bytes`` fields.
+
+* The ``rados df --format=json`` output ``read_bytes`` and ``write_bytes``
+ fields were incorrectly reporting ops; this is now fixed.
+
+* The ``rados df --format=json`` output previously included ``read_kb`` and
+ ``write_kb`` fields; these have been removed. Please use ``read_bytes`` and
+ ``write_bytes`` instead (and divide by 1024 if appropriate).
+
+* The experimental keyvaluestore-dev OSD backend had an on-disk format
+ change that prevents existing OSD data from being upgraded. This
+ affects developers and testers only.
+
+* mon-specific and osd-specific leveldb options have been removed.
+ From this point onward users should use the `leveldb_*` generic
+ options and add the options in the appropriate sections of their
+ configuration files. Monitors will still maintain the following
+ monitor-specific defaults:
+
+ leveldb_write_buffer_size = 8*1024*1024 = 33554432 // 8MB
+ leveldb_cache_size = 512*1024*1204 = 536870912 // 512MB
+ leveldb_block_size = 64*1024 = 65536 // 64KB
+ leveldb_compression = false
+ leveldb_log = ""
+
+ OSDs will still maintain the following osd-specific defaults:
+
+ leveldb_log = ""
+
+* CephFS support for the legacy anchor table has finally been removed.
+ Users with file systems created before firefly should ensure that inodes
+ with multiple hard links are modified *prior* to the upgrade to ensure that
+ the backtraces are written properly. For example::
+
+ sudo find /mnt/cephfs -type f -links +1 -exec touch \{\} \;
+
+* We disallow nonsensical 'tier cache-mode' transitions. From this point
+ onward, 'writeback' can only transition to 'forward' and 'forward'
+ can transition to 1) 'writeback' if there are dirty objects, or 2) any if
+ there are no dirty objects.

+v0.86
+=====
+
+This is a release candidate for Giant, which will hopefully be out
+in another week or two. We did a feature freeze about a month ago
+and since then have been doing only stabilization and bug fixing (and
+a handful on low-risk enhancements). A fair bit of new functionality
+went into the final sprint, but it's baked for quite a while now and
+we're feeling pretty good about it.
+
+Major items include:
+
+* librados locking refactor to improve scaling and client performance
+* local recovery code (LRC) erasure code plugin to trade some
+ additional storage overhead for improved recovery performance
+* LTTNG tracing framework, with initial tracepoints in librados,
+ librbd, and the OSD FileStore backend
+* separate monitor audit log for all administrative commands
+* asynchronous monitor transaction commits to reduce the impact on
+ monitor read requests while processing updates
+* low-level tool for working with individual OSD data stores for
+ debugging, recovery, and testing
+* many MDS improvements (bug fixes, health reporting)
+
+There are still a handful of known bugs in this release, but nothing
+severe enough to prevent a release. By and large we are pretty
+pleased with the stability and expect the final Giant release to be
+quite reliable.
+
+Please try this out on your non-production clusters for a preview

+
+v0.85
+=====
+
+This is the second-to-last development release before Giant that
+contains new functionality. The big items to land during this cycle
+are the messenger refactoring from Matt Benjamin that lays some
+groundwork for RDMA support, a performance improvement series from
+SanDisk that improves performance on SSDs, lots of improvements to our
+new standalone civetweb-based RGW frontend, and a new 'osd blocked-by'
+mon command that allows admins to easily identify which OSDs are
+blocking peering progress. The other big change is that the OSDs and
+Monitors now distinguish between "misplaced" and "degraded" objects:
+the latter means there are fewer copies than we'd like, while the
+former simply means the are not stored in the locations where we want
+them to be.
+
+Also of note is a change to librbd that enables client-side caching by
+default. This is coupled with another option that makes the cache
+write-through until a "flush" operations is observed: this implies
+that the librbd user (usually a VM guest OS) supports barriers and
+flush and that it is safe for the cache to switch into writeback mode
+without compromising data safety or integrity. It has long been
+recommended practice that these options be enabled (e.g., in OpenStack
+environments) but until now it has not been the default.
+
+We have frozen the tree for the looming Giant release, and the next
+development release will be a release candidate with a final batch of
+new functionality.

+---------
+
+* The client-side caching for librbd is now enabled by default (rbd
+ cache = true). A safety option (rbd cache writethrough until flush
+ = true) is also enabled so that writeback caching is not used until
+ the library observes a 'flush' command, indicating that the librbd
+ users is passing that operation through from the guest VM. This
+ avoids potential data loss when used with older versions of qemu
+ that do not support flush.
+
+ leveldb_write_buffer_size = 32*1024*1024 = 33554432 // 32MB
+ leveldb_cache_size = 512*1024*1204 = 536870912 // 512MB
+ leveldb_block_size = 64*1024 = 65536 // 64KB
+ leveldb_compression = false
+ leveldb_log = ""
+
+ OSDs will still maintain the following osd-specific defaults:
+
+ leveldb_log = ""
+
+* The 'rados getxattr ...' command used to add a gratuitous newline to the attr
+ value; it now does not.

+v0.84
+=====
+
+The next Ceph development release is here! This release contains
+several meaty items, including some MDS improvements for journaling,
+the ability to remove the CephFS file system (and name it), several
+mon cleanups with tiered pools, several OSD performance branches, a
+new "read forward" RADOS caching mode, a prototype Kinetic OSD
+backend, and various radosgw improvements (especially with the new
+standalone civetweb frontend). And there are a zillion OSD bug
+fixes. Things are looking pretty good for the Giant release that is
+coming up in the next month.
+
+Upgrading
+---------
+
+* The ``*_kb perf`` counters on the monitor have been removed. These are
+ replaced with a new set of ``*_bytes`` counters (e.g., ``cluster_osd_kb`` is
+ replaced by ``cluster_osd_bytes``).
+
+* The ``rd_kb`` and ``wr_kb`` fields in the JSON dumps for pool stats (accessed
+ via the ``ceph df detail -f json-pretty`` and related commands) have been
+ replaced with corresponding ``*_bytes`` fields. Similarly, the
+ ``total_space``, ``total_used``, and ``total_avail`` fields are replaced with
+ ``total_bytes``, ``total_used_bytes``, and ``total_avail_bytes`` fields.
+
+* The ``rados df --format=json`` output ``read_bytes`` and ``write_bytes``
+ fields were incorrectly reporting ops; this is now fixed.
+
+* The ``rados df --format=json`` output previously included ``read_kb`` and
+ ``write_kb`` fields; these have been removed. Please use ``read_bytes`` and
+ ``write_bytes`` instead (and divide by 1024 if appropriate).

+
+
+v0.83
+=====
+
+Another Ceph development release! This has been a longer cycle, so
+there has been quite a bit of bug fixing and stabilization in this
+round. There is also a bunch of packaging fixes for RPM distros
+(RHEL/CentOS, Fedora, and SUSE) and for systemd. We've also added a new
+librados-striper library from Sebastien Ponce that provides a generic
+striping API for applications to code to.
+
+Upgrading
+---------
+
+* The experimental keyvaluestore-dev OSD backend had an on-disk format
+ change that prevents existing OSD data from being upgraded. This
+ affects developers and testers only.
+
+* mon-specific and osd-specific leveldb options have been removed.
+ From this point onward users should use the `leveldb_*` generic
+ options and add the options in the appropriate sections of their
+ configuration files. Monitors will still maintain the following
+ monitor-specific defaults:
+
+ leveldb_write_buffer_size = 32*1024*1024 = 33554432 // 32MB
+ leveldb_cache_size = 512*1024*1204 = 536870912 // 512MB
+ leveldb_block_size = 64*1024 = 65536 // 64KB
+ leveldb_compression = false
+ leveldb_log = ""
+
+ OSDs will still maintain the following osd-specific defaults:
+
+ leveldb_log = ""

+
+v0.81
+=====
+
+This is the first development release since Firefly. It includes a
+lot of work that we delayed merging while stabilizing things. Lots of
+new functionality, as well as several fixes that are baking a bit before
+getting backported.
+
+Upgrading
+---------
+
+* CephFS support for the legacy anchor table has finally been removed.
+ Users with file systems created before firefly should ensure that inodes
+ with multiple hard links are modified *prior* to the upgrade to ensure that
+ the backtraces are written properly. For example::
+
+ sudo find /mnt/cephfs -type f -links +1 -exec touch \{\} \;
+
+* Disallow nonsensical 'tier cache-mode' transitions. From this point
+ onward, 'writeback' can only transition to 'forward' and 'forward'
+ can transition to 1) 'writeback' if there are dirty objects, or 2) any if
+ there are no dirty objects.
