+Severity : major
+Frequency : liblustre (e.g. catamount) on a large cluster with >= 8 OSTs
+ per OSS
+Bugzilla : 11684
+Description: System hang on startup
+Details : This bug allowed the liblustre (e.g. catamount) client to
+ return to the app before handling all startup RPCs. This
+ could leave the node unresponsive to lustre network traffic
+ and manifested as a server ptllnd timeout.
+
+Severity : enhancement
+Bugzilla : 11667
+Description: Add "/proc/sys/lustre/debug_peer_on_timeout"
+ (liblustre envirable: LIBLUSTRE_DEBUG_PEER_ON_TIMEOUT)
+ boolean to control whether to print peer debug info when a
+ client's RPC times out.

Description: MountConf
Details : under very unusual load conditions an assertion is hit in
ll_intent_file_open()
+Severity : normal
+Frequency : always
+Bugzilla : 10901
+Description: large O_DIRECT requests fail under memory pressure/fragmentation
+Details : Large single O_DIRECT read and write calls can fail to allocate
+ a sufficiently large buffer to process the request. In case of
+ allocation failure the allocation is retried with a smaller
+ buffer and broken into smaller requests.

+Severity : normal
+Frequency : always
+Bugzilla : 3244
+Description: Addition of EXT3_FEATURE_RO_COMPAT_DIR_NLINKS flag for
+ > 32000 subdirectories
+Details : Add EXT3_FEATURE_RO_COMPAT_DIR_NLINK flag to
+ EXT3_FEATURE_RO_COMPAT_SUPP. This flag will be set whenever
+ subdirectory count crosses 32000. This will aid e2fsck to
+ correctly handle more than 32000 subdirectories.
