All,

We are pleased to announce the general availability of kronosnet v1.13

kronosnet (or knet for short) is the new underlying network protocol for 
Linux HA components (corosync), that features the ability to use 
multiple links between nodes, active/active and active/passive link 
failover policies, automatic link recovery, FIPS compliant encryption 
(nss and/or openssl), automatic PMTUd and in general better performances 
compared to the old network protocol.

Highlights in this release:

* IMPORTANT/URGENT: fix defrag buffer reclaim logic that could lead knet
   to deliver corrupted data to the application (corosync or alike).
* IMPORTANT/URGENT: fix MTU boundary check on links with very high
   packet loss and avoid delivering corrupted (short) data to the
   application.
* Optimize reassembly of defrag packets by avoid unnecessary memmoves.
* Improvements to the test suite to deal with the above bugs and
   potentially reduce regressions in future.
* Minor stability fixes to the test suite.

Known issues in this release:

*none
