Linux Patch Notes for CTE v7.7.0

Resolved Issues

• AGT-62687: LDT Backup/Restore: Primary crashes when all nodes read file flag with lazy_rekey

  AFFECTED VERSIONS: 7.7.0.100

  The LDT Primary member crashed when multiple secondary members simultaneously accessed a file with a lazy_rekey flag, triggering concurrent single file rekey requests to the primary host. The solution was to properly manage concurrent single file rekey requests, for the same file, on the LDT primary host.

• AGT-62996 [CS1596737]: Getting "Input/output error" when accessing any GuardPoint

  AFFECTED VERSIONS: 7.6.0.87 — 7.7.0.100

  The squid private GuardPoint is not supposed to be guarded when COS is disabled, but the private directory was still available and it was being guarded. This caused the error. The solution is to check for COS support when mounting a squid private GuardPoint.

• AGT-63387: Exclusion key rule with local filesystem displaying wrong rekey_status and key

  AFFECTED VERSIONS: 7.7.0.100

  The addition of an exclusion key rule triggers the transition of files, not associated with a key rule, for encryption and exclusion from rekey. But the rekey process did the encryption without setting exclusion property on the affected files. The solution was to properly set the exclusion flag for the associated exclusion key rule.

• AGT-63740 [CS1605248]: Server reboot/crash intermittently multiple times

  AFFECTED VERSIONS: 7.7.0.100

  System crashed due to uninitialized data. Now CTE checks for that condition and prevents the crash.

• AGT-64314 [CS1609046]: LDT GuardPoint hangs with error message: ODT metadata removal in-progress

  AFFECTED VERSIONS: 7.7.0.100

  Using voradmin ldt attr delete <gp> to remove the LDT extended attributes on files in an unguarded GuardPoint failed. This issue has been fixed.

• AGT-64626 [CS1615683]: OS Kernel panic due to secfs2

  AFFECTED VERSIONS: 7.7.0.100

  System crashed due to accessing SecFS inode iprivate field which was NULL. The fix ignores the iprivate field if it is NULL.

• AGT-64687: Intermittent crashing with automount GuardPoint

  AFFECTED VERSIONS: 7.7.0.100

  The system crashed while accessing the mount option which did not contain an expected value for a string. This has been fixed. The proper string value is now copied to the page size buffer and passed to the mount option.
