    gfapi : Avoid double freeing of dict in glfs_*_*getxattr
    
    The dict variable "xattr" is passed to glfs_getxattr_process() and
    glfs_listxattr_process() in glfs_*_*getxattrs(). This variable is
    unrefed by both functions and again in caller function which may
    result in segfault. So it is wrong to call dict_unref() in both
    glfs_*xattr_process functions.

This bug is getting closed because a release has been made available that should address the reported issue. In case the problem is still not fixed with glusterfs-3.8.0, please open a new bug report.

glusterfs-3.8.0 has been announced on the Gluster mailinglists [1], packages for several distributions should become available in the near future. Keep an eye on the Gluster Users mailinglist [2] and the update infrastructure for your distribution.
