+
+- Avoid spurious crashes when initializing in "backup" client.
+
+All unix platforms:

+
+- Avoid a potential panic when using /afs/.:mount syntax.
+
+- Avoid a panic in memcache mode due to missing CellItems file.
+
+All server platforms:
+
+- Attempt to recovery more quickly from timed out volume release
+ transactions.
+
+- Auditing now properly byte order swaps IP addresses when printing.
+
+- vos split now has improved error handling.
+
+- Many changes to again support Windows fileservers.
+
+- During volume removal, data removal speed improved.
+
+- Improve CPU utilization during volume attaching by DAFS.
+
+- In salvager check-only mode, avoid potentially fixing a vnode.
+
+- Fix support for large (greater than 2gb) volume special files.
+
+- Salvager will not crash if multiple or bad volume link tables
+ are encountered.
+
+- Avoid erroneous full dump by remembering which sites were out of date
+ at the start of the release.

+FreeBSD:
+
+- Remove support for "Giant" lock as we no longer need to use it.
+
+- Don't sleep with AFS GLOCK.
+
+- Properly enable 64 bit long long support.
+
+- Restore support for FreeBSD 7 (128612)
+
+- Fix locking issues at shutdown.
+
+Linux:
+
+- support through kernel 2.6.38.
+
+- RedHat packaging now properly supports RHEL6.
+
+- Use rx_Readv in cache bypass to improve performance.
+
+- Properly handle 0-length replies during cache bypass operations.
+
+- Properly handle non-contiguous readpage cache bypass operations.
+
+- Do proper locking when transitioning to or from cache bypass.
+
+- Avoid extra runs of vcache freeing routine. (128756)

+- Check for unloaded kernel extensions when decoding AFS panics.
+
+- Properly handle setpag errors. PAGs are not supported.
+
+- Disable "get tokens at login" in prefs pane if AD authentication
+ plugin is configured.
+
+OpenBSD:
+
+- support through OpenBSD 4.8.
+
+Solaris:
+
+- Fix support for Solaris pre-10.
+
+Windows:
+
+- afs_config will not longer set the Tray Icon State
+ in the registry if the checkbox is not present in
+ the dialog. (128591)
+
+- AFS Explorer Shell Extension now works from folder
+ backgrounds. Overlays for mount points and symlinks
+ are present in the dll, but are not registered at present
+ by the installers.

+- Do not use RankServerInterval registry value as the value for
+ PerformanceTuningInterval.
+
+- When the data version of a mountpoint or symlink changes,
+ the target string in the cm_scache_t object must be cleared.

+ and only lists multi-homed servers once. A multi-homed
+ server that has at least one up interface is no longer
+ considered to be down.
+
+- When asynchronously storing dirty data buffers to the

+ succeed.
+
+- Do not preserve status information for cm_scache_t objects
+ when the issuing server is multi-homed.
+
+- Giving up all callbacks when shutting down or suspending
+ the machine is now significantly faster due to the use
+ of an rx_multi implementation. (This functionality is
+ still off by default and must be activated by a registry
+ value.)
+
+- Race conditions were possible when updating the state
+ of the cm_volume_t flags and when moving the volumes
+ within the least recently used list.
+
+- Ensure that the lanahelper library does not perform a
+ NCBRESET of each lan adapter when enumerating the
+ current network bindings. Correcting this permits OpenAFS
+ to work on Windows 7 when the network adapter settings
+ change.
+
+- Fix creation of mount points and symlinks as \\AFS\xxxx

+
+ADDITIONAL CHANGES IN 1.6.0PRE5
+
+All server platforms:
+
+- Avoid leaking references to hosts during callback break multi-Rx
+ operations. (129376)
+
+All UNIX platforms:
+
+- Avoid a potential deadlock (which times out) when we need to allocate more
+ callback returns and must flush some already in use.
+
+- Deal with libcom_err conflicts with other packages using it (e.g. krb5)
+ (128640)
+
+AIX:

+ avoid attempting to process data after we can no longer do so.
+
+NetBSD:
+
+- Updates for platform support.
+
+Windows:
+
+- Fix caching of non-existent volumes. The test to
+ trigger an immediate CM_ERROR_NOSUCHVOLUME in
+ cm_UpdateVolumeLocation() was backwards.
+
+- Prevent the background daemon from checking the
+ status of non-existent volumes. cm_CheckOfflineVolumes()
+ should skip volume groups with the CM_VOLUMEFLAG_NOEXIST
+ flag set.
+
+- The afskfw library should return an error immediately
+ if the krb5_32.dll library cannot be loaded. Affects
+ afslogon.dll and afscreds.exe.
+
+- No longer depend on leashw32.dll in afskfw library.
+
+- NPLogonNotify must provide the user password in all

+
+- Improve the trace logging from NPLogonNotify().
+
+- Avoid a race when writing the cm_scache_t mountPointString
+ when acquiring mount point or symlink target data via

+ as DES keys in asetkey.exe.
+
+ADDITIONAL CHANGES IN 1.6.0PRE4
+

+- Avoid a potential panic when using /afs/.:mount syntax.
+
+- Avoid a panic in memcache mode due to missing CellItems file.
+
+All server platforms:

+
+- Fix support for large (greater than 2gb) volume special files.
+
+- Salvager will not crash if multiple or bad volume link tables
+ are encountered.
+
+- Avoid erroneous full dump by remembering which sites were out of date
+ at the start of the release.
+
+FreeBSD:
+
+- Remove support for "Giant" lock as we no longer need to use it.
+
+- Don't sleep with AFS GLOCK.

+- Properly handle non-contiguous readpage cache bypass operations.
+
+- Do proper locking when transitioning to or from cache bypass.
+
+- Avoid extra runs of vcache freeing routine. (128756)

+
+OpenBSD:
+
+- support through OpenBSD 4.8.
+
+Solaris:
+
+- Fix support for Solaris pre-10.
+
+Windows:
+
+- afs_config will not longer set the Tray Icon State
+ in the registry if the checkbox is not present in
+ the dialog. (128591)
+
+- AFS Explorer Shell Extension now works from folder
+ backgrounds. Overlays for mount points and symlinks
+ are present in the dll, but are not registered at present
+ by the installers.
+
+- Do not use RankServerInterval registry value as the value for
+ PerformanceTuningInterval.
+
+- When the data version of a mountpoint or symlink changes,
+ the target string in the cm_scache_t object must be cleared.
+
+- "fs checkservers" now includes vldb servers in the output
+ and only lists multi-homed servers once. A multi-homed
+ server that has at least one up interface is no longer
+ considered to be down.
+
+- When asynchronously storing dirty data buffers to the
+ file server ensure that (a) the cm_scache_t object and
+ the cm_buf_t object are for the same File ID so that
+ locking and signalling work properly; and (b) if the
+ FID no longer exists on the file server, do not panic,
+ just discard the buffer.
+
+- When processing VNOVOL, VMOVED and VOFFLINE errors perform
+ server comparisons by UUID or address and not simply by
+ cm_server_t pointer. Otherwise, server failover may not
+ succeed.
+
+- Do not preserve status information for cm_scache_t objects
+ when the issuing server is multi-homed.
+
+- Giving up all callbacks when shutting down or suspending
+ the machine is now significantly faster due to the use
+ of an rx_multi implementation. (This functionality is
+ still off by default and must be activated by a registry
+ value.)
+
+- Race conditions were possible when updating the state
+ of the cm_volume_t flags and when moving the volumes
+ within the least recently used list.
+
+- Ensure that the lanahelper library does not perform a
+ NCBRESET of each lan adapter when enumerating the
+ current network bindings. Correcting this permits OpenAFS
+ to work on Windows 7 when the network adapter settings
+ change.
+
+- Fix creation of mount points and symlinks as \\AFS\xxxx
+
+PREVIOUS CHANGES:
+
+All platforms:
+
