Bug 1980797

Following is a list of fixes brought in with syncing with the Fedora Package

patches on top of 1.5.0: 

Fix: sbd-inquisitor: tolerate and strip any leading spaces of command line option values
Log: sbd-inquisitor: tell the actual watchdog device specified with `-w`
Build: Fix: correctly derrive package version from git
  fixes a regression brought in previously

Changes since 1.4.2:
    
- default to resource-syncing with pacemaker in spec-file and configure.ac
  This default has to match between sbd and pacemaker and
  thus qualifies this release for a minor-version-bump
- fix some regressions introduced by adding configurability previously
- adapt description of startup/shutdown sync with pacemaker
- make watchdog warning messages more understandable

Build: Fix: package version if release not labelled yet
Fix: sbd-inquisitor: prevent segfault if no command is supplied
Fix: sbd-inquisitor: take the defaults for the options set in sysconfig with empty strings
Log: sbd-inquisitor,sbd-md: make watchdog warning messages more understandable
Fix: sbd-inquisitor: calculate the default timeout for watchdog warning based on the watchdog timeout consistently
Fix: sbd-inquisitor: ensure the timeout for watchdog warning specified with `-5` option is respected
Fix: sbd-common: ensure the default timeout for watchdog warning is about 3/5 of the default watchdog timeout
Doc: adapt description of startup/shutdown sync with pacemaker
Fix: sbd-inquisitor: check SBD_SYNC_RESOURCE_STARTUP only in watch mode

Regression test suite was conducted, any potential issues will be reviewed and filed as new bzs.
Marking as VERIFIED for sbd-1.5.0-2.el8

You’re looking to align the codebase of RHEL-8.5 with the upstream release of sbd-1.5.0, which includes default startup/shutdown-syncing and some minor bug fixes. This should indeed help maintain consistency and minimize risk and retest efforts.

To proceed with syncing the codebase, you might want to:

Review the changes in sbd-1.5.0 to ensure all relevant updates are included.
Test the integration in a controlled environment to verify that the syncing and bug fixes work as expected.
Document any changes made during the syncing process for future reference and troubleshooting.
