cachefilesd bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

An updated cachefilesd package that fixes two bugs is now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The cachefilesd package manages a kernel module that attempts to improve the
performance of selected file systems by using local disk space to cache data
read over the network.

This update fixes the following bugs:

• Prior to this update, cachefilesd used the wrong log level for cull info
  messages. As a result, the /var/log/messages file could become overloaded. This
  update reduces the messages to the debug level. Now, /var/log/messages no longer
  becomes overloaded. (BZ#660347)
  
• Prior to this update, cachefilesd depended on a specific version of the
  SELinux policy package. As a result, only the nominated version was allowed.
  This update permits the nominated version and any later versions. Now, the
  SELinux policy dependency works as expected. (BZ#723890)
  

All users of cachefilesd are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which
fixes these bugs.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata relevant
to your system have been applied.

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red
Hat Network to apply this update are available at
