+Subject: [PATCH 3/4] totem: Add cancel_hold_on_retransmit config option
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+Previously, existence of retransmit messages canceled holding
+of token (and never allowed representative to enter token hold
+state).
+
+This makes token rotating maximum speed and keeps processor
+resending messages over and over again - overloading network
+and reducing chance to successfully deliver the messages.
+
+Also there were reports of various Antivirus / IPS / IDS which slows
+down delivery of packets with certain sizes (packets bigger than token)
+what make Corosync retransmit messages over and over again.
+
+Proposed solution is to allow representative to enter token hold
+state when there are only retransmit messages. This allows network to
+handle overload and/or gives Antivirus/IPS/IDS enough time scan and
+deliver packets without corosync entering "FAILED TO RECEIVE" state and
+adding more load to network.

+Subject: [PATCH 4/4] totemsrp: Switch totempg buffers at the right time
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+Commit 92e0f9c7bb9b4b6a0da8d64bdf3b2e47ae55b1cc added switching of
+totempg buffers in sync phase. But because buffers got switch too early
+there was a problem when delivering recovered messages (messages got
+corrupted and/or lost). Solution is to switch buffers after recovered
+messages got delivered.
+
+I think it is worth to describe complete history with reproducers so it
+doesn't get lost.
+
+It all started with 402638929e5045ef520a7339696c687fbed0b31b (more info
+about original problem is described in
+https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=820821). This patch
+solves problem which is way to be reproduced with following reproducer:
+- 2 nodes
+- Both nodes running corosync and testcpg
+- Pause node 1 (SIGSTOP of corosync)
+- On node 1, send some messages by testcpg
+  (it's not answering but this doesn't matter). Simply hit ENTER key
+  few times is enough)
+- Wait till node 2 detects that node 1 left
+- Unpause node 1 (SIGCONT of corosync)
+
+and on node 1 newly mcasted cpg messages got sent before sync barrier,
+so node 2 logs "Unknown node -> we will not deliver message".
+
+Solution was to add switch of totemsrp new messages buffer.
+
+This patch was not enough so new one
+(92e0f9c7bb9b4b6a0da8d64bdf3b2e47ae55b1cc) was created. Reproducer of
+problem was similar, just cpgverify was used instead of testcpg.
+Occasionally when node 1 was unpaused it hang in sync phase because
+there was a partial message in totempg buffers. New sync message had
+different frag cont so it was thrown away and never delivered.
+
+After many years problem was found which is solved by this patch
+(original issue describe in
+https://github.com/corosync/corosync/issues/660).
+Reproducer is more complex:
+- 2 nodes
+- Node 1 is rate-limited (used script on the hypervisor side):
+  ```
+  iface=tapXXXX
+  # ~0.1MB/s in bit/s
+  rate=838856
+  # 1mb/s
+  burst=1048576
+  tc qdisc add dev $iface root handle 1: htb default 1
+  tc class add dev $iface parent 1: classid 1:1 htb rate ${rate}bps \
+    burst ${burst}b
+  tc qdisc add dev $iface handle ffff: ingress
+  tc filter add dev $iface parent ffff: prio 50 basic police rate \
+    ${rate}bps burst ${burst}b mtu 64kb "drop"
+  ```
+- Node 2 is running corosync and cpgverify
+- Node 1 keeps restarting of corosync and running cpgverify in cycle
+  - Console 1: while true; do corosync; sleep 20; \
+      kill $(pidof corosync); sleep 20; done
+  - Console 2: while true; do ./cpgverify;done
+
+And from time to time (reproduced usually in less than 5 minutes)
+cpgverify reports corrupted message.
