RHBA-2011:0864 - Bug Fix Advisory
Synopsis
device-mapper-multipath bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated device-mapper-multipath packages that fix one bug are now available for
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.
Description
The device-mapper-multipath packages provide tools to manage multipath devices
by giving the "dm-multipath" kernel module instructions on what to do, as well
as by managing the creation and removal of partitions for Device-Mapper devices.
This update fixes the following bug:
- After acquiring their resource locks, multipathd's threads did not check if
they were canceled before accessing their resources. This caused multipathd to
close with a segmentation fault on shutdown, if a thread attempted to access a
resource after it was canceled. Now all multipathd threads check if they are
canceled before accessing their resources. (BZ#704470)
All users of device-mapper-multipath are advised to upgrade to these updated
packages, which fix this bug.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to
