--- fixes: - Fixes an issue which caused conductor's periodic tasks to stop executing. See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ironic/+bug/1637210. features: - Adds DBDeadlock handling which may improve stability when using Galera. See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ironic/+bug/1639338. Number of retries depends on the configuration option ``[database]db_max_retries`` which programmatically defaults to 5. upgrade: - All DB API methods doing database writes now retry on deadlock. The ``[database]db_max_retries`` configuration option specifies the maximum number of times to retry, and can be customised if necessary. It is 5 by default.
