Thanks to Kenneth Marshall for some advice. +- extended testbench +- bugfix: hostname accidently set to IP address for some message sources, + for example imudp. Thanks to Anton for reporting this bug. [imported v4] +- bugfix: ompgsql had problems with transaction support, what actually + rendered it unsuable. Thanks to forum user "horhe" for alerting me + on this bug and helping to debug/fix it! [imported from 5.3.6] +- bugfix: $CreateDirs variable not properly initialized, default thus + was random (but most often "on") [imported from v3] +--------------------------------------------------------------------------- +Version 5.5.1 [DEVEL] (rgerhards), 2009-11-27 +- introduced the ablity for netstream drivers to utilize an epoll interface + This offers increased performance and removes the select() FDSET size + limit from imtcp. Note that we fall back to select() if there is no + epoll netstream drivers. So far, an epoll driver has only been + implemented for plain tcp syslog, the rest will follow once the code + proves well in practice AND there is demand. +- re-implemented $EscapeControlCharacterTab config directive + Based on Jonathan Bond-Caron's patch for v4. This now also includes some + automatted tests. +- bugfix: enabling GSSServer crashes rsyslog startup + Thanks to Tomas Kubina for the patch [imgssapi] +- bugfix (kind of): check if TCP connection is still alive if using TLS + Thanks to Jonathan Bond-Caron for the patch. +--------------------------------------------------------------------------- +Version 5.5.0 [DEVEL] (rgerhards), 2009-11-18 +- moved DNS resolution code out of imudp and into the backend processing + Most importantly, DNS resolution now never happens if the resolved name + is not required. Note that this applies to imudp - for the other inputs, + DNS resolution almost comes for free, so we do not do it there. However, + the new method has been implemented in a generic way and as such may + also be used by other modules in the future. +- added option to use unlimited-size select() calls + Thanks to varmjofekoj for the patch + This is not done in imudp, as it natively supports epoll(). +- doc: improved description of what loadable modules can do +--------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 5.3.7 [BETA] (rgerhards), 2010-01-?? - bugfix: rsyslog hangs when writing to a named pipe which nobody was reading.
