Alexey<br>
<br>
I am sorry if my explanation was not clear enough.<br>
<br>
The decision was taken to not classify this as a blocker because the
issue only occurs when running kernel debug options.<br>
<br>
The engineers in the triage process considered this not to be a
common scenario for production usage.<br>
<br>
As such it was decided it would be better to have the release be on
time for the majority and know that anyone needing to run kernel
debug options would be able to apply a simple patch to do so.<br>
<br>
The kind of logic applied to determining blockers for Lustre
releases has been unchanged for many years.<br>
<br>

<div>you don't answer to the question - why WC make a reese with
know panic?</div>
<div>make a stable release with know panics was unacceptable
situation in past.</div>
<div>any new code which isn't fixed before release and have a know
panic was reverted from a release in past..</div>
<div>but it's looks changed now?</div>
<div>so We need to assume WC able name as release a code with know
panic?</div>
<div>Anyway - 2.2.0 isn't acceptable to run for me until that
panic isn't fixed because i hit it panic on each run.</div>

<br>
Thanks for your interest in the 2.2 release. <br>
<br>
The issue that you mention was of course reviewed and,
despite being reported after the code freeze with testing
at an advanced stage we would have included a fix for it
if it was relevant for production systems but it is only
possible to hit this issue when running with kernel debug
options on so we decided it was ok to defer it until after
2.2 was GA.<br>
<br>
Please note that this issue has been marked as low
priority rather than a blocker and was not mentioned as a
possible blocker in my last update two weeks ago. If you
ever see something that you think should be urgent then I
encourage you to speak up promptly so that we have time to
fix it before the release goes out (if need be).<br>
<br>
Regards<br>
