Description:

This update for pacemaker fixes the following issues:

  • remote: Allow cluster and remote LRM API versions to diverge (bsc#1009076)
  • libcrmcommon: fix CVE-2016-7035 (improper IPC guarding) (bsc#1007433)
  • sysconfig: minor tweaks (typo, wording)

  • various: issues discovered via valgrind and coverity

  • attrd_updater: fix usage of HAVE_ATOMIC_ATTRD

  • crmd: cl#5185 - Record pending operations in the CIB before they are performed (bsc#1003565)

  • ClusterMon: fix to avoid matching other process with the same PID
  • mcp: improve comments for sysconfig options
  • remove openssl-devel and libselinux-devel as build dependencies
  • tools: crm_standby --version/--help should work without cluster
  • libpengine: only log startup-fencing warning once
  • pacemaker.service: do not mistakenly suggest killing fenced
  • libcrmcommon: report errors consistently when waiting for data on connection (bsc#986644)
  • remote: Correctly calculate the remaining timeouts when receiving messages (bsc#986644)
  • libfencing: report added node ID correctly
  • crm_mon: Do not call setenv with null value

  • ping: Avoid temporary files for fping check (bsc#987348)
  • all: clarify licensing and copyrights
  • crmd: Resend the shutdown request if the DC forgets
  • ping: Avoid temp files in fping_check (bsc#987348)
  • crmd: Ensure the R_SHUTDOWN is set whenever we ask the DC to shut us down
  • crmd: clear remote node operation history only when it comes up
  • libcib,libfencing,libtransition: handle memory allocation errors without CRM_CHECK()
  • tools: make crm_mon XML schema handle resources with multiple active
  • pengine: set OCF_RESKEY_CRM_meta_notify_active_* for multistate resources
  • pengine: avoid null dereference in new same-node ordering option
  • lrmd,libcluster: ensure g_hash_table_foreach() is never passed a null table
  • crmd: don't log warning if abort_unless_down() can't find down event
  • lib: Correction of the deletion of the notice registration.
  • stonithd: Correction of the wrong connection process name.
  • crmd: Keep a state of LRMD in the DC node latest.
  • pengine: avoid transition loop for start-then-stop + unfencing

  • libpengine: allow pe_order_same_node option for constraints

  • cts: Restart systemd-journald with "systemctl restart systemd-journald.socket" (bsc#995365)

  • libcrmcommon: properly handle XML comments when comparing v2 patchset diffs
