solana-labs/solana v1.16.27

Mainnet - v1.16.27

on GitHub

This release updates the ahash dependency. Earlier releases failed to publish to crates.io because of the yanked ahash dependency.

This is a stable release suitable for use on Mainnet Beta. This release restores compatibility between v1.16 and v1.17. It is strongly recommended that all nodes adopt this release in anticipation of the v1.17 update (coming soon).

v1.16 removes solana-sys-tuner. For manual tuning please see these System Tuning instructions

• In v1.16 releases prior to v1.16.5, the TransactionStatus and AddressSignatures columns were not properly cleaned. This could have resulted in excessive storage use for nodes running with --enable-rpc-transaction-history. This has been fixed with #32548

• Hidden CLI flag, --no-skip-initial-accounts-db-clean, was added to work around nodes with 128 GB of RAM that OOM at startup

Changes

• v1.16: add merkle root meta column to blockstore (backport of #33979) (#34665)
• pin v1.16 ahash to 0.8.3 (#34650)
