I am pleased to announce the latest maintenance release of 
Corosync-Qdevice 3.0.1 available immediately from GitHub at 
https://github.com/corosync/corosync-qdevice/releases as 
corosync-qdevice-3.0.1.

This release contains important bug fixes and some of new features. Most 
notable ones:
- Rewrite of DPD (dead-peer-detection) timer. Previously dead peer 
detection was implemented sub-optimally and may result in QNetd waiting 
too long before marking Qdevice peer dead and selecting new quorate 
partition what made Qdevice not responsible for corosync votequorum 
service resulting in lost of quorum. New implementation is using smaller 
timeouts and no sampling (global DPD timer) so QNetd detects dead peer 
long time before sync_timeout. Configuration option dpd_interval is 
removed (no longer needed) and replaced by dpd_interval_coefficient (see 
corosync-qnetd(8) for more details). This fixes GH issue #10.
- Implement KAP Tie-breaker (keep active partition) for ffsplit 
algorithm. This solves problem when Corosync creates single node 
partition during startup and for two node clusters with ffsplit this new 
node might get vote eventho there was already other quorate node. This 
option is enabled by default. To use previous behavior it's possible to 
set keep_active_partition_tie_breaker in corosync.conf (see 
corosync-qdevice(8) for more details). Fix for GH issue #7.
- Qdevice systemd unit file now restarts on-failure.
- Configurations without ring0_addr are now properly supported. Fixes GH 
issue #16.
