All releases of Kerrighed


Release Notes: New features includes remote memory injection, a configurable scheduler, remote vfork(), and a new RPC transmission engine that highly increases performance. This release also includes many bugfixes.


Release Notes: This release features full and stable SMP support. A strong effort has been made to finish SMP support for distributed system V IPCs. 64-bit support is now quite functional, but still considered as experimental.


Release Notes: This release fixes a crash in fcntl64 with recent libc, a memory leak in migration and remote fork, access to freed memory after migration, a NULL byte inserted in the first line of /proc/stat, memory leaks in FAFed recvmsg() and exit of remote forked processes, and a deadlock when killing nonexistent (but realistic) pgrp. It has been updated to kernel 2.6.20.


Release Notes: The main changes are a port to the 2.6.20 Linux kernel, replacing the old communication layer with TIPC, and fixes for numerous bugs.


Release Notes: This release has been ported to the 2.6.11 kernel. A large part of the code has been rewritten in a cleaner way. It successfully runs most (not all) of the kernel tests available in the "Linux Test Project".


Release Notes: This live CD provides a ready-to-run Kerrighed environment, which can be useful for demonstration purposes, for example.


Release Notes: Random signal delivery was fixed in some cases. Useless network traffic which occurred when some applications are running (xosview, for instance) was fixed. Some deadlock cases in the global lock mechanism were fixed. A kernel oops in the distributed thread brk function was fixed. A large memory leak with Kerrighed threads and process migration was fixed. Some distributed lock problems using Kerrighed threads were fixed. A memory leak in KerFS was fixed. It is now possible for the top and ps commands to show the node on which a process is running.


Release Notes: A deprecated dependancy on PERFCTNR was removed. A crash which occurred with the global INET socket in some corner cases was fixed. A major issue when HIGHMEM support is activated was fixed. A port to Linux 2.4.29 was made. The use of Kerrighed threads through LD_PRE_LOAD was enabled.
