etcd-io__etcd/CHANGELOG-3.1.md

Previous change logs can be found at CHANGELOG-3.0.

v3.1.18 (TBD 2018-06)

See code changes and v3.1 upgrade guide for any breaking changes. Again, before running upgrades from any previous release, please make sure to read change logs below and v3.1 upgrade guide.

Metrics, Monitoring

• Add etcd_server_version Prometheus metric.
  • To replace Kubernetes etcd-version-monitor.

Go

• Compile with Go 1.8.7.

v3.1.17 (2018-06-06)

See code changes and v3.1 upgrade guide for any breaking changes. Again, before running upgrades from any previous release, please make sure to read change logs below and v3.1 upgrade guide.

etcd server

• Fix v3 snapshot recovery.
  • A follower receives a leader snapshot to be persisted as a [SNAPSHOT-INDEX].snap.db file on disk.
  • Now, server ensures that the incoming snapshot be persisted on disk before loading it.
  • Otherwise, index mismatch happens and triggers server-side panic (e.g. newer WAL entry with outdated snapshot index).

Go

• Compile with Go 1.8.7.

v3.1.16 (2018-05-31)

See code changes and v3.1 upgrade guide for any breaking changes. Again, before running upgrades from any previous release, please make sure to read change logs below and v3.1 upgrade guide.

etcd server

• Fix mvcc server panic from restore operation.
  • Let's assume that a watcher had been requested with a future revision X and sent to node A that became network-partitioned thereafter. Meanwhile, cluster makes progress. Then when the partition gets removed, the leader sends a snapshot to node A. Previously if the snapshot's latest revision is still lower than the watch revision X, etcd server panicked during snapshot restore operation.
  • Now, this server-side panic has been fixed.

Go

• Compile with Go 1.8.7.

v3.1.15 (2018-05-09)

See code changes and v3.1 upgrade guide for any breaking changes. Again, before running upgrades from any previous release, please make sure to read change logs below and v3.1 upgrade guide.

etcd server

• Purge old *.snap.db snapshot files.
  • Previously, etcd did not respect --max-snapshots flag to purge old *.snap.db files.
  • Now, etcd purges old *.snap.db files to keep maximum --max-snapshots number of files on disk.

Go

• Compile with Go 1.8.7.

v3.1.14 (2018-04-24)

See code changes and v3.1 upgrade guide for any breaking changes. Again, before running upgrades from any previous release, please make sure to read change logs below and v3.1 upgrade guide.

Metrics, Monitoring

• Add etcd_server_is_leader Prometheus metric.

etcd server

• Add --initial-election-tick-advance flag to configure initial election tick fast-forward.
  • By default, --initial-election-tick-advance=true, then local member fast-forwards election ticks to speed up "initial" leader election trigger.
  • This benefits the case of larger election ticks. For instance, cross datacenter deployment may require longer election timeout of 10-second. If true, local node does not need wait up to 10-second. Instead, forwards its election ticks to 8-second, and have only 2-second left before leader election.
  • Major assumptions are that: cluster has no active leader thus advancing ticks enables faster leader election. Or cluster already has an established leader, and rejoining follower is likely to receive heartbeats from the leader after tick advance and before election timeout.
  • However, when network from leader to rejoining follower is congested, and the follower does not receive leader heartbeat within left election ticks, disruptive election has to happen thus affecting cluster availabilities.
  • Now, this can be disabled by setting --initial-election-tick-advance=false.
  • Disabling this would slow down initial bootstrap process for cross datacenter deployments. Make tradeoffs by configuring --initial-election-tick-advance at the cost of slow initial bootstrap.
  • If single-node, it advances ticks regardless.
  • Address disruptive rejoining follower node.

Go

• Compile with Go 1.8.7.

v3.1.13 (2018-03-29)

See code changes and v3.1 upgrade guide for any breaking changes. Again, before running upgrades from any previous release, please make sure to read change logs below and v3.1 upgrade guide.

Improved

• Adjust election timeout on server restart to reduce disruptive rejoining servers.
  • Previously, etcd fast-forwards election ticks on server start, with only one tick left for leader election. This is to speed up start phase, without having to wait until all election ticks elapse. Advancing election ticks is useful for cross datacenter deployments with larger election timeouts. However, it was affecting cluster availability if the last tick elapses before leader contacts the restarted node.
  • Now, when etcd restarts, it adjusts election ticks with more than one tick left, thus more time for leader to prevent disruptive restart.

Metrics, Monitoring

• Add missing etcd_network_peer_sent_failures_total count.

Go

• Compile with Go 1.8.7.

v3.1.12 (2018-03-08)

See code changes and v3.1 upgrade guide for any breaking changes. Again, before running upgrades from any previous release, please make sure to read change logs below and v3.1 upgrade guide.

etcd server

• Fix mvcc "unsynced" watcher restore operation.
  • "unsynced" watcher is watcher that needs to be in sync with events that have happened.
  • That is, "unsynced" watcher is the slow watcher that was requested on old revision.
  • "unsynced" watcher restore operation was not correctly populating its underlying watcher group.
  • Which possibly causes missing events from "unsynced" watchers.
  • A node gets network partitioned with a watcher on a future revision, and falls behind receiving a leader snapshot after partition gets removed. When applying this snapshot, etcd watch storage moves current synced watchers to unsynced since sync watchers might have become stale during network partition. And reset synced watcher group to restart watcher routines. Previously, there was a bug when moving from synced watcher group to unsynced, thus client would miss events when the watcher was requested to the network-partitioned node.

Go

• Compile with Go 1.8.7.

Security, Authentication

See security doc for more details.

• SRV records (e.g., infra1.example.com) must match the discovery domain (i.e., example.com) if no custom certificate authority is given.
  • TLSConfig.ServerName is ignored with user-provided certificates for backwards compatibility; to be deprecated.
  • For example, etcd --discovery-srv=example.com will only authenticate peers/clients when the provided certs have root domain example.com as an entry in Subject Alternative Name (SAN) field.

• Automatic leadership transfer when leader steps down.
• etcd flags
  • --strict-reconfig-check flag is set by default.

• Cluster rejects removing members if quorum will be lost.
• Discovery now has upper limit for waiting on retries.
• Warn on binding listeners through domain names; to be deprecated.
• v3.0 and v3.1 with --auto-compaction-retention=10 run periodic compaction on v3 key-value store for every 10-hour.
  • Compactor only supports periodic compaction.
  • Compactor records latest revisions every 5-minute, until it reaches the first compaction period (e.g. 10-hour).
  • In order to retain key-value history of last compaction period, it uses the last revision that was fetched before compaction period, from the revision records that were collected every 5-minute.
  • When --auto-compaction-retention=10, compactor uses revision 100 for compact revision where revision 100 is the latest revision fetched from 10 hours ago.
  • If compaction succeeds or requested revision has already been compacted, it resets period timer and starts over with new historical revision records (e.g. restart revision collect and compact for the next 10-hour period).
  • If compaction fails, it retries in 5 minutes.
