features:
- |
Experimental support for Python 3.6 and 3.7 is now available.
Note that this requires ``eventlet>=0.25.0``. All unit tests pass,
and running functional tests under Python 2 will pass against
services running under Python 3. Expect full support in the
next minor release.
- |
Log formats are now more configurable and include support for
anonymization. See the ``log_msg_template`` option in ``proxy-server.conf``
and `the Swift documentation <https://docs.openstack.org/swift/latest/logs.html#proxy-logs>`__
for more information.
- |
Added an operator tool, ``swift-container-deleter``, to asynchronously
delete some or all objects in a container using the object expirers.
- |
Swift-all-in-one Docker images are now built and published to
https://hub.docker.com/r/openstackswift/saio. These are intended
for use as development targets, but will hopefully be useful as a
starting point for other work involving containerizing Swift.
upgrade:
- |
The ``object-expirer`` may now be configured in ``object-server.conf``.
This is in anticipation of a future change to allow the ``object-expirer``
to be deployed on all nodes that run the ``object-server``.
- |
**Dependency updates**: we've increased our minimum supported version
of ``cryptography`` to 2.0.2 and ``netifaces`` to 0.8. This is largely due
to the difficulty of continuing to test with the old versions.
If running Swift under Python 3, ``eventlet`` must be at least 0.25.0.
fixes:
- |
Correctness improvements
* The ``proxy-server`` now ignores 404 responses from handoffs without
databases when deciding on the correct response for account and
container requests.
* Object writes to a container whose existence cannot be verified
now 503 instead of 404.
- |
Sharding improvements
* The ``container-replicator`` now only attempts to fetch shard ranges if
the remote indicates that it has shard ranges. Further, it does so
with a timeout to prevent the process from hanging in certain cases.
* The ``proxy-server`` now caches 'updating' shards, improving write
performance for sharded containers. A new config option,
``recheck_updating_shard_ranges``, controls the cache time; set it to
0 to disable caching.
* The ``container-replicator`` now correctly enqueues
``container-reconciler`` work for sharded containers.
- |
S3 API improvements
* Unsigned payloads work with v4 signatures once more.
* Multipart upload parts may now be copied from other multipart uploads.
* CompleteMultipartUpload requests with a ``Content-MD5`` now work.
* ``Content-Type`` can now be updated when copying an object.
* Fixed v1 listings that end with a non-ASCII object name.
- |
Background corruption-detection improvements
* Detect and remove invalid entries from ``hashes.pkl``
* When object path is not a directory, just quarantine it,
rather than the whole suffix.
