User-Visible OpenAFS Changes

OpenAFS 1.6.5.2

  Linux clients

    * Support RHEL 6.5 kernels, and possibly others with changes backported
      from recent mainline kernels that touch getname/putname, by no longer
      using those functions. Previously, the client could cause a kernel
      panic when syscall auditing was enabled.

      Note there's another known problem with this kernel, where a certain
      anti-virus software prevents the client from accessing its disk
      cache. The workaround is to disable virus scanning for the disk cache.

    * Make tmpfs usable as the cache filesystem again. This had been broken
      since kernel 3.1

  OS X clients

    * Support OS X 10.9 "Mavericks". Previously, attempting to create a
      symbolic link on this platform resulted in a kernel panic.
