  • About RHBA-2013:0779 device-mapper-multipath bug fix.
Previously, the multipathd daemon did not stop and wait for all of its threads
on shutdown, which caused multipathd to occasionally terminate unexpectedly with
a segmentation fault during shutdown. With this update, multipathd now correctly
stops and waits for its threads during shutdown, and crashes no longer occur in
the described scenario. (BZ#951435)
