OpenStack Cinder brick library for managing local volume attaches

Warning

The stable/victoria branch of os-brick does not contain a fix for CVE-2023-2088. Be aware that such a fix must span cinder, os-brick, nova, and, depending on your deployment configuration, glance_store and ironic. The Cinder project team advises against using the code in this branch unless a mitigation against CVE-2023-2088 is applied.

Hacking

Hacking on brick requires python-gdbm (for Debian derived distributions), Python 2.7 and Python 3.4. A recent tox is required, as is a recent virtualenv (13.1.0 or newer).

If "tox -e py34" fails with the error "db type could not be determined", remove the .testrepository/ directory and then run "tox -e py34".
