rsyslog.git/plugins/imudp, branch v4.6.2

enabled imudp to send complete text of large messages to debug log

2010-03-18T11:39:19+00:00

... it turns out that this is sometimes extremely useful when debugging
real-world problems at user sites.

Merge branch 'v4-stable' into v4-beta & BUGFIX

v4-stable had a bug with RFC5424-formatted structured data, which showed
was detected by the enhanced automatted testbench of v4-beta.

bugfix: zero-sized UDP messages are no longer processed

2009-09-29T12:37:33+00:00

Until now, they were forwarded to processing, but this makes no sense
Also, it looks like the system seems to provide a zero return code
on a UDP recvfrom() from time to time for some internal reasons. These
"receives" are now silently ignored.

bugfix: reverse lookup reduction logic in imudp do DNS queries too often

2009-09-03T13:48:57+00:00

A comparison was done between the current and the former source address.
However, this was done on the full sockaddr_storage structure and not
on the host address only. This has now been changed for IPv4 and IPv6.
The end result of this bug could be a higher UDP message loss rate than
necessary (note that UDP message loss can not totally be avoided due
to the UDP spec)

now put the new property-based methods to good use

2009-07-01T12:33:19+00:00

... hopefully reducing the number of allocs/frees as well as overall
memory usage in a busy system (plus that these shared properties hopefully
remain in cache longer than its single-instance counterparts...)

RcvFromIP now also a property

2009-07-01T11:28:17+00:00

This sets stage to enable use of the property-interface to speed
up things (mildly), the next step to be done. I have also fixed one
regression of yesterday's changes.

introduced a new way of handling the RcvFrom property

2009-06-30T16:45:41+00:00

... plus a fix for a long-time bug in obj-types.h. That lead to
the object pointer only then to become NULL when the object was
actually destructed, I discovered this issue during
introduction of the pRcvFrom property in msg_t, but it potentially had other
effects, too. I am not sure if some experienced instability resulted from this
bug OR if its fix will cause harm to so-far "correctly" running code. The later
may very well be. Thus I will change it only for the current branch and also
the beta, but not in all old builds. Let's see how things evolve.

finished transition to using inputName property

2009-06-30T13:21:15+00:00

... plus some celanup and adding minor missing functionality
(the rule debug info again tell the property name, not just number).

introduced the idea of detached properties

2009-06-29T14:53:26+00:00

some things inside the message can be used over a large number of
messages and need to to be allocated and re-written every time. I now
begin to implement this as a "prop_t" object, first use for the inputName.
Some input modules are already converted, some others to go. Will do
a little performance check on the new method before I go further.

Also, this commit has some cleanup and a few bug fixes that prevented
compiliation in debug mode (I overlooked this as I did not compile
for debug, what I normally do, and the automatted test also does not
do that)
