loopd+loopdb: add timeout to DB open
To make sure we don't just block for forever if another Loop daemon
process is already running, we add a timeout and error out if obtaining
the unique file lock fails after 5 seconds.

Loop Client Release Notes

This file tracks release notes for the loop client.

Developers:

  • When new features are added to the repo, a short description of the feature should be added under the "Next Release" heading.
  • This should be done in the same PR as the change so that our release notes stay in sync!

Release Manager:

  • All of the items under the "Next Release" heading should be included in the release notes.
  • As part of the PR that bumps the client version, cut everything below the 'Next Release' heading.
  • These notes can either be pasted in a temporary doc, or you can get them from the PR diff once it is merged.
  • The notes are just a guideline as to the changes that have been made since the last release, they can be updated.
  • Once the version bump PR is merged and tagged, add the release notes to the tag on GitHub.

  • Instead of just blocking for forever without any apparent reason if another Loop daemon process is already running, we now exit with an error after 5 seconds if acquiring the unique lock on the Loop bbolt DB fails.
