1 Technical notes on version 2.2.x
6 kes Backport almost 4000 lines of 2.3 code that fixes a number of bugs.
7 The details are included in the notes in this file.
9 kes Backport 2.3 code that fixes: it fixes incorrect or incomplete error
10 messages; it fixes a problem opening the SQLite3 database when multiple
11 simultaneous jobs were running; it fixes a bug with certain versions of
12 MySQL where batch inserts failed because of table name character case
13 (upper/lower) differences.
14 kes Fix race condition that drops final block written to volume.
15 This happens in rare cases with multiple simultaneous jobs
16 when the Volume fills. This fixes bug #964. May be related
17 to bug #935 and possibly #903.
19 kes Fix FD->SD authorization failure, which was due to spurious
20 wakeups from a pthread_cond_timedwait(). Simply check the
21 predicate before continuing. This fixes bug #953
22 dvl Add new configuration item --archivedir
23 dvl Adjust regression tests to use tmp not /tmp. This will allow
24 multiple concurrent runs of the regression tests.
26 kes Fix race condition that drops final block written to volume.
27 This happens in rare cases with multiple simultaneous jobs
28 when the Volume fills. This fixes bug #964. May be related
29 to bug #935 and possibly #903.
30 kes Eliminate more strerror() and replace with bstrerror().
31 kes Remove BSD getopt and replace with unrestricted IBM version.
32 kes Fix Win32 build for changed calling sequences.
34 kes Fix FD->SD authorization failure, which was due to spurious
35 wakeups from a pthread_cond_timedwait(). Simply check the
36 predicate before continuing. This fixes bug #953.
37 kes Add const char where needed (more to do).
39 kes Setup SQLite busy handler before doing queries. Fixes bug #967.
40 kes Don't overwrite error message in check_tables_version.
42 kes Unlock batch insert tables with same calls used elsewhere.
43 kes Allow starting 59 jobs a second.
44 kes Make SD session key more random.
45 kes Add retry for SQLite opening db if it fails. Probably helps
47 kes Suppress extra error messages during batch insert failure.
49 kes Put some FD auth code on dbglvl rather than fixed.
50 kes Return insert attributes error message in db msg buffer to avoid
51 false error messages. Helps fix bug #966.
52 kes Separate batch init error messages. Probably helps fix bug #966.
53 kes If Dir gets an error during inserting attributes, cancel SD.
54 This reduces unnecessary error messages.
56 ebl Cleanup batch insert code. Probably fixes bug #965.
58 kes Turn off some code when batch insert not enabled.
59 kes Edit FD name in connect error messages.
61 kes Add code to handle tray monitor separated from Win32 FD.
62 kes Fix display of Win32 tray monitor after reboot. Fixes bug #952.
64 kes Fix ANSI tape labeling. This fixes bug #954.
65 kes Increase the max block size to 4MB fixes bug #957.
66 kes Apply 2.2.4-poll-mount fix, that resolves bug #908 where a tape
67 is not properly mounted (recognized) during a poll.
68 kes Apply 2.2.4-verify patch that resolves bug #958. A Verify catalog
69 Job that has differences reports Verify OK.
73 kes Increase size of name string when FD making connection to SD.
76 kes Add code to try to fix bug #908.
77 kes Add waits to multiple exit detection code to try to force pid
78 file to always be deleted.
79 kes Restore good dev.tar.gz to rescue set appropriate binary property.
81 kes Fix seg fault in error exit of acquire_for_read after unsuccessfully
82 trying to switch drives by checking for blocking before unblocking.
84 kes Cancel storage daemon in all cases where FD reports error. This
85 should fix virtually all cases of bug #920.
87 kes Fix error message that was clobbered when Dir tells SD it does not
88 have write permission on Volume. This should fix a minor point
89 in bug #942, but not the main problem.
90 kes Add code to cancel job in SD if FD connection fails. This should
92 kes Add code in FD exit to prevent loops and a crash on FreeBSD.
93 kes Fix migration code to get correct Volume name with multiple volumes
94 by skipping |. Fixes bug #936.
95 kes Implement patch supplied by Landon to fix bug #944 where using
96 TLS with bconsole uses 99+% of the CPU.

198 bnet calls -- no functionality change.
200 kes Modify the Verify output to specify if files are missing on
201 the Volume(s) or disk. Fixes confusion in bug #916.
202 kes When more than one Volume is read in a migration job, the last

204 the last written volume. Fixed. This fixes bug #910.
205 kes Fix display of Recycle flag after update volume=foo recycle=yes.
206 It previously printed New Recyle flag is: no. This fixes bug
209 kes Correct seg fault when switching tape drives during restore.

270 marked as being removable and has the appropriate mount and unmount
271 commands defined in the Device resource. This fixes bug #830.
272 kes When applying a storage override, release all previous storage
273 definitions rather than just prepending the new storage.
274 This should prevent a good deal of confusion.
276 kes Implement ./configure search for qwt libraries.
278 kes Disable posting the WM_CLOSE message in KillRunningCopy of the
279 Win32 FD. This should fix bug #893.

302 Sergey Svishchev <svs@ropnet.ru> for the AIX platform.
303 kes Make arguments to get_scratch_volume() in same order as other
305 kes Rework the prune_volumes() subroutine so that after purging and
306 no volume found in desired pool, it will check for a scratch
307 volume. This prevents recycling the whole scratch pool.
308 kes Add code to status storage to print boffset_t (largefile support).
310 kes Move qwt (Graphics libarary for Qt4) to depkgs.
311 kes You now need a --with-qwt=<dir> to be able to build bat.
312 kes Update src/win32/cats/bacula_cats.def to include the new
313 db_get_query_dbids() call on Win32.

338 bug in migration code where a job that spanned two volumes
341 kes Implement new BST_DESPOOLING blocked state. Change from locking
342 during despooling in SD to blocking. This means that other threads
343 can work with the device structure, in particular the reservations
344 system while despooling.
346 kes Fix return in reservation message queue that missed clearing
347 the jcr lock (implemented 26Jun07 below).
348 kes Rename a number of dev methods to make locking function names
350 kes Document locking in lock.c. Move lock structures to new file

369 spurious line drops when using TLS.
370 kes Do not file reparse points when restoring a file that already
373 kes Implement Windows reparse points -- similar to directories, but
374 we do not descend into it. This is a first cut. They seem to
375 be backed up, but restore is not yet tested.
376 kes Remove restore_blocking in tls code when shutting a socket to leave
377 it in blocking mode. Hopefully this will fix the encryption bug
378 reported by Frank Sweetser.
379 kes When opening a file for backup, tell the OS that we are going to
380 read it sequentially -- optimization.
381 kes Change variable names in authenticate_director() to not conflict
382 with member names in bat. Caused great confusion with compiler,
385 kes Queue openssl error messages in case of comm problem.
386 kes Do shutdown() call if socket terminated.

413 file types where no signature computed.
414 kes Correct inverted check on autochanger in reservation system.
415 kes Tweak debug code in autochanger reservation.
417 kes Add some additional locking in the cats directory in subroutines
418 that modify packet variables called from batch insert.
419 kes Rework how dcrs are allocated. new_dcr() can now be called
420 with an existing pointer, and it will simply clean it up.
421 This allows the reservation system to test various different
422 devices, and will permit easy device changes.
423 kes A bunch of changes all over to handle new new_dcr() calling
425 kes Work more on the Volume management in the SD. Remember Volumes
426 for tape drives and for autochangers (even virtual disk changers).
427 kes When looking at the Volume list to reserve a drive, handle
428 autochanger names correctly by interating through the changer
429 devices. Also call the Director to see if a Volume is suitable
431 kes Fix some bugs in bscan. Make sure all media records are written.
432 Make sure that valid JobMedia records are written for disk files.
433 Previously they were completely wrong.
434 kes Move source tar files for depkgs-mingw32 to www.bacula.org so
435 that the URLs don't change and so that the developers will all
436 work off the same copy. Rebuild from scrach.
437 kes Upgrade Win32 SQLite3 from 3.3.8 to 3.3.17.
441 kes Fix seg fault in FD from incorrect digest size.
442 kes Fix argument to non-OpenSSL crypto.c subroutine.
446 kes Remove a few malloc()s from the encryption code.
447 kes Use the class calls to bsock in filed/backup.c and restore.c in
448 place of the old bnet_xxx code.
449 kes Implement code that does an on the fly calculation of the
450 signing digest during restore of encrypted files. It makes
451 a best guess at the algorithm, and if it is not correct, will
452 then revert to the old code which reads the file after it is
454 kes Implement at least one missing crypto stream in stream_to_ascii()
455 kes Apply patch from William <chowmeined@gmail.com> that fixes bug
456 #877 where a reload with bad syntax causes Dir to exit.
458 Cut: 2.1.14 beta (not released)
460 kes Do not free a volume on a tape drive until another volume is
461 mounted and read, or the autochanger unloads the volume.
462 This should help the SD re-use volumes that are already mounted,
463 and should fix bug #886.
464 kes Apply patch from user brettedgar that allows gnome2-console include
465 the OpenSSL libraries, and hence work with SSL. Fixes bug #885.
466 kes Apply patch from Lucien Weller that fixes day of week calculation
467 because of DST flag problem. Fixes bug #887.
469 kes Move find_next_appendable_volume() to after acquiring a valid device
470 in reserve.c. This fixes bug #864 -- confirmed by reporter.
472 kes Unable to reproduce bug 872. However added additional testing for
474 kes Bug #874 resolved by documenting SQLite limitations.
475 kes Bug #882 resolved by documenting mtx-changer script for new drive code.
476 kes Bug #881 resolved by removing typo in mtx-changer script.
477 kes Made Frank Sweetser's wiki the official Bacula wiki with his
478 approval. Added a link to the wiki on the web page, and implemented

489 kes Use get_jcr_from_tid() to conver all tls Emsg() to Jmsg(). This
490 should definitely fix the problem of lost error messages in the
492 kes Remove over zellous addition of FSFE copyright in a few eggxxx files.
493 kes Eliminate tcpd.h from the project. Enclose the #include from the
494 library with extern C ...

499 kes Fix a seg fault in the PostgreSQL driver dereferencing a NULL pointer.
501 kes Implement SQLITE3_INIT_QUERY in version.h that can do an initial
502 query for SQLite3. Use it to set PRAGMA synchronous = OFF. This
503 makes SQLit3 run 30 times faster, though a bit less safe.

505 safe libraries. It is on by default, but turned off if no thread
506 safe library (e.g. SQLite 2) is available.
508 kes Fix Bacula PostgreSQL buffer overruns.
509 kes Do better checking for NULL results returned from PostgreSQL;
510 implement retry for failed queries; clear results buffer after
511 failed query. Hopefully this will correct the PostgreSQL failures.

514 Prefer Mounted Volumes = no.
515 kes Fix a Bacula PostgreSQL bug dereferencing a NULL pointer
516 returned from a query.
517 kes Make volume lock recursive.

520 old brute force algorithm of searching the resources to
521 find a suitable device.
522 kes Add new reservations debug code and refine the old code.
523 kes Update the win32/dll/bacula.defs file.
525 kes Tweak reservations algorithm to permit a few more cases, i.e.
526 volume reserved, but on different drive, ...
527 kes Enhance SD status to include Pool and Media Type for drive in a
528 more readable format (a bit longer).
529 kes Fix PostgreSQL double free.
531 kes Minor refactoring of restore decryption code.
532 kes Add code to smartall.c to detect double free of a buffer.
534 kes Add < > around %r in from field on mail command of bacula-dir.conf.in
535 so that bsmtp will create a correct email address (mailbox only).
536 kes Modify 'memory' command so that the buffers are listed as 'In use'
537 to avoid confusion with Orphaned buffers.
538 kes I reworked the OpenSSL include/lib flags to be handled in

553 authenicate all daemons.
554 kes Move several more functions into the BSOCK class.
556 kes Add code to tell the OS that we no longer need a cached
557 file that we were reading. In findlib/bfile.c. Also,

792 The ability for the director to validate a Client (FD) CN against
793 an arbitrary set of patterns rather than the hostname, with
794 A new 'TLS Allowed CN' set of directives which are implemented
795 in the Client resource. Then pattern matching is used in place

840 ebl Check size and age of each file after its backup to see if
841 it has changed during backup, if 'checkfilechanges' is set.
842 The FD will do an extra check (stat(2)) after
843 each file backup. mtime, ctime and size are compared with
844 'before backup' information. If time or size mismatch, an

886 resolve problems reported about needing to mount twice to recycle
888 kes Rewrite pruning algorithm to do more work in the SQL engine, and
889 to pass a list of JobIds to be deleted to SQL. Also, minimize the
890 amount of duplicated code.

983 kes Fix a few places in lib/message.c where the open fd may
985 kes Continue implementing lib/bsock.c (real class). Make jcr,
986 who, host, and port private. There are new methods to access
987 them for non-class use. This required touching a number of files.
989 kes Add LANG=C to autoconf/randpass so it works with languages other
990 than English. Fixes bug #788.
992 ebl Revert ClientRunBeforeJob to old position as in 1.38.X.

1014 kes Begin enhancing the dot commands adding a new API function
1015 that returns more information and will make it easier
1016 to interface to the Director from a program.
1018 kes Make DEVICE fd private. Its new name is m_fd, and can be
1019 obtained with dev->fd() outside the class. This is the
1020 first of many DEVICE members to be made private.
1021 kes Implement Michael Renner's idea on having a virtual disk
1022 changer. I made some minor modifications (e.g. I did not
1023 implement the Virtual Changer directive, but simply set
1024 the Changer Command to an empty string.
1026 kes Implement a BSOCK send() method that writes the whole record
1027 in a single write() request rather than in two.
1028 ebl add update volume=xxx recyclepool=yyyy
1029 volume takes recyclepool from pool when using update volume=xxx from pool

1045 in the case of orphaned records.
1046 kes Modify dbcheck to handle orphaned JobMedia, Path, Filename,
1047 and File records in 300K chunks to be more efficient. This
1048 idea came from Juan Luis Frances (if I remember right).
1049 kes Apply Eric's scratch patch that moves a purged Volume to
1050 the RecyclePool. Question: how is RecyclePool set? what
1051 happens to the ScratchPool?
1052 kes Apply Eric's media patch that collects read/write media
1053 times as well as byte counts. This patch requires a
1054 simultaneous upgrade of the DIR and SD. Note, there
1055 should be some way to turn off timing. I'm not sure
1056 times are in Bacula units.
1057 kes Apply Eric's batch-insert patch.
1059 kes Update projects list.
1061 kes Implement Include/Exclude file lists in FD as dlists using
1062 the new dlistString class. This permits efficiently having
1063 large include/exclude lists and completes project Item 25.

1065 console is authorized to cancel the job. This fixes bug
1067 kes Modify SD so that the VolCatJobs medium record is updated
1068 at the beginning of a Job rather than the end. This
1069 fixes bug #775 where exceeding MaxVolJobs caused jobs
1071 kes Added a mutex around getting and setting Volume information
1072 so that multiple simultaneous jobs will single thread.
1074 Switch to using Subversion
1075 kes Remove src/pygtk-console/ from configure
1077 kes Delete src/lib/btree.c from win32 build, then add rblist.c
1078 plus the entrypoints.
1079 kes Apply patch supplied that corrects debug print
1080 in canceling jobs for max run time. Supplied as
1081 part of bug #621, which was previously fixed.
1083 kes Test on job_canceled() and sd_msg_thread_done inside
1084 loop starting the message thread to avoid a race condition.
1086 kes Remove rl_catch_signal from console.c as it conflicted
1087 with the header definition. Fixes bug #765.

1093 kes Fix memory leak with storage ids in cats/sql_get.c
1094 kes Terminate watchdog earlier to avoid reference to released
1095 memory -- reported by Jason Austin.
1096 kes Move closing the database from jobq.c to the director daemon
1097 termination routine. This fixes memory leaks for shadow jobs
1098 (i.e. migration jobs).
1099 kes Free up the unique jobid chain items in migrate.c. This fixes
1100 a memory leak problem.
1101 kes Convert some ugly looking for statements to use foreach_alist
1102 in findlib/find.c. This will facilitate converting the structures
1103 to use dlist (for large include/exclude lists).
1104 kes Fix a bug in the btree.c and btree.h routines, then rename them
1105 rblist and add them to be built in src/lib. Include some new
1106 methods written by Rudolf Cejka that make the code more readable
1107 (hides some of the ugly casting).
1108 kes Add set_next() and set_prev() methods which make the code much more
1109 readable. Also add a new dlistString class that facilitates storing
1110 strings in dlists. To be used in the large include/exclude lists.
1111 kes Make some trivial modifications to lib/tree.h that use rblist
1112 rather than dlist for storing the tree links. This was suggested
1113 by Rudolf Cejka. The result of this is that the restore tree now
1114 uses red-black binary trees rather than simple linked lists. This
1115 should give rather dramatic speed improvements for directories
1116 contining large numbers of directories/files (more than 10000).
1118 kes Fix maxruntime bug #621.
1120 ebl Implement the include JobID in spool file name project.
