We're happy to announce the 5th point release in the Reef series. We recommend users to update to this release. For detailed release notes with links & changelog please refer to the official blog entry at https://ceph.io/en/news/blog/2025/v18-2-5-reef-released/ Notable Changes --------------- * RBD: The ``try-netlink`` mapping option for rbd-nbd has become the default and is now deprecated. If the NBD netlink interface is not supported by the kernel, then the mapping is retried using the legacy ioctl interface. * RADOS: A new command, `ceph osd rm-pg-upmap-primary-all`, has been added that allows users to clear all pg-upmap-primary mappings in the osdmap when desired.
