GRIDNET Core 1.2.1 Release Notes

Dear GRIDNET community,

We are pleased to announce the availability of GRIDNET Core 1.2.1. This release is largely a hot-fix update, encompassing key improvements and solutions to issues detected in our prior version.

Key highlights of this release:

The major reason behind this hot-fix release was making sure that a sequence like a one visible below goes through without issues:
image
A file created, ownership changed, explicit write permission assigned to a yet another user etc.

Security Hot-fix

One of the most significant aspects of this release is a security hot-fix related to the GRIDNET OS’s decentralized file system. We have improved the security measures involved with ‘setfacl’, ‘getfacl’, ‘chown’, and ‘poll’ commands, strengthening the integrity and safety of the GRIDNET filesystem operations.

Performance Improvements

Aiming for more efficient operation, we have introduced performance improvements to the synchronization mechanics. This enhancement is designed to promote smoother and faster synchronization of data across the GRIDNET network.

Deadlock Issue Resolution

This update also addresses a critical deadlock situation that was identified in one of our full-nodes. We’ve implemented a solution to resolve this, thereby enhancing the stability of the network and preventing potential disruptions.

It’s important to note that the benefits of these updates extend to the entire network. We strongly recommend users to update their GRIDNET Core software to this latest version to take advantage of these enhancements.

As always, your feedback and suggestions are invaluable to us. Please feel free to reach out via our official forums for any questions or discussions.
