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.

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: potential segfaults during queue shutdown + (bugs require certain non-standard settings to appear) + Thanks to varmojfekoj for the patch [imported from 4.5.8] [backport from 5.5.2] - bugfix: wrong memory assignment for a config variable (probably without causing any harm) [backport from 5.2.2] @@ -339,6 +409,17 @@ Version 4.7.0 [v4-devel] (rgerhards), 2009-09-?? - added new config directive $omfileForceChown to (try to) fix some broken system configs.
