This only happened when the imudp input module was used and it + depended on name resolution not yet had taken place. In other words, + this was a strange problem that could lead to hard to diagnose + instability. So if you experience instability, chances are good that + this fix will help. +--------------------------------------------------------------------------- +Version 5.7.6 [V5-BETA] (rgerhards), 2011-02-25 +- bugfix: fixed a memory leak and potential abort condition + this could happen if multiple rulesets were used and some output batches + contained messages belonging to more than one ruleset. + fixes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=226 + fixes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=218 +- bugfix: memory leak when $RepeatedMsgReduction on was used + bug tracker: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=225 +--------------------------------------------------------------------------- +Version 5.7.5 [V5-BETA] (rgerhards), 2011-02-23 +- enhance: imfile did not yet support multiple rulesets, now added + we do this directly in the beta because a) it does not affect existing + functionality and b) one may argue that this missing functionality is + close to a bug. +- improved testbench, added tests for imuxsock +- bugfix: imuxsock did no longer sanitize received messages + This was a regression from the imuxsock partial rewrite. Happened + because the message is no longer run through the standard parsers. + bug tracker: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=224 +- bugfix: minor race condition in action.c - considered cosmetic + This is considered cosmetic as multiple threads tried to write exactly + the same value into the same memory location without sync. The method + has been changed so this can no longer happen. +--------------------------------------------------------------------------- +Version 5.7.4 [V5-BETA] (rgerhards), 2011-02-17 +- added pmsnare parser module (written by David Lang) +- enhanced imfile to support non-cancel input termination +- improved systemd socket activation thanks to Marius Tomaschweski +- improved error reporting for $WorkDirectory + non-existance and other detectable problems are now reported, + and the work directory is NOT set in this case +- bugfix: pmsnare causded abort under some conditions +- bugfix: abort if imfile reads file line of more than 64KiB + Thanks to Peter Eisentraut for reporting and analysing this problem. + bug tracker: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=221 +- bugfix: queue engine did not properly slow down inputs in FULL_DELAY mode + when in disk-assisted mode. This especially affected imfile, which + created unnecessarily queue files if a large set of input file data was + to process. +- bugfix: very long running actions could prevent shutdown under some + circumstances.
