Initializing the + RX library spawns background threads to listen for inbound + packets. When the network provider is unloaded from the + process, the RX library does not cleanup the threads. If they + continue to execute after the library is unloaded, the process + will crash. + + * implement inline bulk status calls. this will significantly + improve the performance of directory listings. + + * prevent a crash when evaluating mountpoints to volumes that do not + exist + + * new command: fs uuid [-generate] + displays the current uuid and allows a new one to be generated + on the fly without restarting the afs client service. + + * fix the 64-bit installers to properly document the install + location + + * move help files to the proper location so they can be located by + the system tray tool and the control panel. + + * "over quota" and "disk full" errors were not being reported to the + caller. + + * largefile support has been added. Files greater than 31-bits can no + longer be written to file servers which do not support large files. + When file servers support large files, files up to 64-bits can be + read or written. + + * cm_SyncOp could return with the input buffer unlocked upon error + which would result in a panic condition. This bug was introduced + in 1.4.1. + + * vlserver failover when freelance mode did not work. This prevented + the root.afs volume from being loaded if the first vlserver could + not be reached. + Since 1.5.1: + * A bug in the CIFS Standard Info response packet caused directories + to appear as standard files. This prevented Microsoft Vista from + being able to walk the AFS directory tree. + + * Mount points must be reported as directories in response to + Query Path Info operations. + * A deadlock was detected when performing "fs flushall" if the file server reports VNOVNODE. The scp->createBufferLock is already held by the current thread and there is no mechanism -- 2.39.5
