1 Technical notes on version 1.39
6 ======================= Warning ==========================
7 All hash codes in the database are now kept in world
8 compatible base64 format (no = filling). This means that
9 all FileSets will be updated and if you are running
10 verify jobs, you must do an InitCatalog.
11 Authentication uses the new algorithm, but should be
12 backward compatible with 1.38.x
13 ===========================================================
15 - Modify the authentication routines so that the 1.39.15 Director
16 always runs with the compatible binary to base64 code (same as
17 the rest of the world). It will however detect if an SD or
18 FD is running the old code and if that is the case, will use
19 the old algorithm for authentication. However, all consoles must
20 use the compatible algorithm, and all data entered into the database
21 (all hash signatures, MD5, SHA1, ..., and all FileSet hashes) will
22 use the compatible algorithm.
23 - Rename the cram_md5 routine names to be slightly more appropriate
24 to what they are doing (challenge and respond).
25 - Robert committed his #ifdef and header cleanup.
28 - Fix a complier warning in files/backup.c
29 - Cleanup NOT NULL vs DEFALT 0 in database creation.
31 - Robert committed his low impact changes.
32 - I removed a size_t from the jcr.h definition.
33 - Update the tape regression scripts (still to be tested).
34 - Add gcc and gcc-c++ requires to srm as suggested by a user.
35 - Require done or quit to exit from in memory tree restore.
37 - Write install/uninstall of new manpages. There are now a
38 pile of man pages. Some of which need a lot of work.
40 ============= Warning ==================================
41 The --mandir ./configure option now points to the top level
42 man directory. The man files will be installed under
43 mandir/man8 and mandir/man1 as appropriate.
44 ===========================================================
46 - Add complete text of GPL to LICENSE.
47 - Implement job report that indicates where Storage and Pool
48 came from -- with overrides and Pool storage and NextPool,
49 it is all very complicated.
50 - Create a few common subroutines for backup.c and migrate.c
51 - Eliminate warning messages from tray-monitor.c
53 - Apply fix for scheduler for missing unlock_jobs().
54 - Clean out autoconf caches before rebuilding configure
55 - Fix the FreeBSD pthreads lib define updated by Dan.
56 - Add missing semicolon in src/console/console.c
57 - Add Robert's enhanced version of build-win32-cross-tools
58 as well as his patch file.
59 - Note, the new gcc options are likely to break building of
60 wx-console or the tray-monitor ...
62 - Implement Robert's suggestion to suppress printing compile lines.
63 - Detect GCC correctly (I hope)
64 - If using GCC (actually g++) add the following compiler flags
65 -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-exceptions -fno-rtti
66 - Turn on new bsnprintf() code.
67 - Fix crypto when not using openssl. I previously overlooked this.
68 - Eliminate crypto type punning problems by eliminating void * and
69 using uint8_t * instead.
70 - Harden authentication failure in FD by single threading errors
71 and forcing a 6 second wait.
73 ============= Warning ==================================
74 Removed "Accept Any Volume" directive.
75 ===========================================================
77 - Major cleanup and simplification of regress using shell functions
78 (more tests to be converted to new format)
79 - Add detection of 64 bit Irix as indicated by user.
80 - Increment catalog database id from 9 to 10.
81 - Add a few of the new database fields to the various C++
83 - Implement code to fill in the most important new fields (e.g.
85 - Ensure that most of the new fields are in create/get/insert/update.
88 - Update some very old licenses in src/cats.
89 - Modify the database format for handling Migration jobs:
90 Add PriorJobId, RealEndTime to Job table
92 Remove Stripe from JobMedia record (not used, wasting space)
93 Add ScratchPoolId, RecyclePoolId, Enabled to Media record
94 Add Cost to Location table.
95 - Delete mac_record subroutines.
96 - Add new table values to create/update/get routines as appropriate.
97 - Update the update_tables and make_tables scripts.
98 - Make a first cut in using a union where multiple pointers (actually
99 pointers to pointers) are stored.
100 - Make some changes to base64.c suggested by Robert and others and add
101 a small amount of documentation.
102 - Add some changes suggested by Peter for Solaris (bregex...)
103 - Make runscript.h always built because it needs to be pulled into
104 more places. In particular its RES was left out of a union.
105 - Renumber the enum{} list in runscript.h to avoid starting from zero.
106 This makes it slightly easier to detect uninitialized variables.
108 - Remove xpg4 lib from FreeBSD build as it is no longer needed and
109 sometimes creates install problems.
110 - Change a couple of %T in strftime to %H:%M:%S as seen in Robert
111 Nelson's code. More to do.
112 - Convert a few store_bit to store_bool in filed_conf.c.
113 - DVD tweak to block.c as supplied by Uwe Muessel.
115 - Modify configure.in to check for typeof().
116 - In findlib/attribs.c use typeof instead of templates if possible.
118 - Implement partial error messages for src/filed/acl.c
119 - Fix return code to fail when doing update barcodes and
120 Pool resource is not found. This previously caused Volumes
121 to be labeled as cleaning tapes.
122 - Small updates to projects.
124 - Add Eric Bollengier patch for new RunScript directive. It breaks
125 compatibility between dird and fd.
127 - Prevent DVD code from rewriting label if the device cannot be
129 - Used __GNUC__ to detect GNU g++ as suggested by John Goerzen to
130 fix Debian build bug.
131 - Fix Dir/SD run race in migrate.c, verify.c, and restore.c
132 - Integrate manpages contributed by Jose Luis.
133 - Update projects file.
134 - Add manpages Makefile.in to configure.in
135 - Remove installation of bacula.8 in scripts directory.
137 - Implement patch submitted by cesarb in bug #606 to implement O_NOATIME
139 O_NOATIME is a open() flag which makes it possible to read a file without
140 updating the inode atime (and also without the inode ctime update which
141 happens if you try to set the atime back to its previous value). It also
142 prevents a race condition when two programs are reading the same file, but
143 only one does not want to change the atime. It's most useful for backup
144 programs and file integrity checkers (and bacula can fit on both
147 Recent versions of the Linux kernel and glibc have support for it (the
148 glibc support being mostly copying the O_NOATIME definition to
149 bits/fcntl.h). If there's no support for it on the kernel, trying to use
150 it does nothing (since the kernel ignores unknown flags).
152 If the kernel has support for it, trying to use it either works, fails
153 silently (mostly in remote filesystems), or returns errno=EPERM (if you
154 are not either the owner of the file or root). A simple way to prevent the
155 failure is to open the file without the flag and set it later with
156 fcntl(F_SETFL), ignoring any EPERM errors.
157 - Applied patch posted by Jaime Ventura to bug #570 to correct failure
158 of restarted jobs to complete (due to a destroyed pthreads conditional
159 variable used by the message thread).
160 - Fixed bug #619 where Bacula would not restart jobs with MaxRestartTimes
162 - Apply patch from John Goerzen bug #611 to fix bad manual links in the code.
163 - Apply patch from Rudolf Cejka bug #614 to removed trailing
164 colons in query.sql file.
165 - Apply patch from Rudolf Cejka bug #613 to correct prunning of files
166 not to create orphans.
167 - Apply patch from Rudolf Cejka bug #617 to use mtime instead of ctime
168 in restore long listing.
169 - Apply patch from Rudolf Cejka bug #609 to use MarkId in verify.c instead
170 of incorrect MarkedId.
171 - Apply patch from adioso bug #616 to correct text in manual (replace
172 Director with File daemon).
173 - Rework a few of the zlib changes so that they build properly.
176 - Move DIR "run" command to SD before starting the message thread
177 as suggested by Cristopher Hull to avoid a race deadlock from
178 two threads using the bsock structure.
179 - Modify LICENSE to correct some problems pointed out by Debian.
181 - Correct EOF with no \n lex.c problem.
182 - Tweak compat.h compat.cpp and merge with apcupsd

191 started adding Makefile ...
192 - Moved MinGW library objects to src/win32/lib to reduce clutter.
194 - Reloading a bad configuration file doesn't kill director any more.
195 Thanks to fix from Eric Bollengier.
197 - Fix problem of accents with new Win32 code.
198 - Integrate Howard's VSS patch. Tweak it a bit. VSS now
199 works in the MinGW build with the exception that there
200 is a problem with accented characters -- i.e. there is
201 some mapping problem with wide characters.
202 - The code no longer compiles with Microsoft VC++.
204 - Start implementing Christopher's St.Bernard code.
205 - Add Christopher's mods for opening files.
206 - Strip \r \n from Win32 error messages (Christopher)
207 - Add more info about Win32 system if unknown (Christopher)
208 - Use bstrn(cpy, cat) routines to avoid overrun in compat.cpp
209 - Fix a number of incorrect strings marked for translation, when
210 they should not be (e.g. commands).
211 - Fix StartTime bug reported for ClientRunBeforeJob and RunBeforeJob
212 Patches supplied by user in bugs #608 and #599.
213 - Use most recent of st_ctime and st_mtime in restore tree DIR
214 listing. This fixes some problems with Win32 printing incorrect
216 - Correct the clock shift comm time calculation between the DIR
217 and the FD. It was added rather than subtracted.
218 - Strip all backslashes in filenames to be restored on Win32
219 machines -- the names should all be in Unix format, and if
220 there are any backslashes it is most likely due to an improper
221 FileSet definition, and the files will not otherwise be
223 - Remove lib/regex.c (replaced by bregex.c).
224 - Delete src/win32/License.txt
225 - Modify installer to install LICENSE
227 - Fix bug in build-win32-cross-tools script reported by Howard

231 - Write first cut of README.mingw32
232 - Add back ua_label barcode fix from Rufolf Cejka.
233 - Integrate the majority of the Mingw cross-tools submission
234 made by Howard Thomson. Everything compiles, with zlib, openssl,
235 and VSS turned off. Linking needs a pthreads library ...
237 - Add 'Dir Status' button to the gnome console.
238 - More work on migration.
239 - Restore non-compatible base64 coding to permit compatibility.
240 - Display heap stats in Storage daemon without debug level.
242 - Integrate most of the MinGW changes -- more to do.
244 - Implement using pg_config for finding PostgreSQL files.
245 Fixes bug #600. Patch supplied by user.
246 - Remove -t option from mktemp in mtx_changer.in and use
247 working directory. Fixes bug #578.
248 - Update job start time after the any run before job so that
249 files created by the script are only backed up once. Fixes
251 - Strip trailing newline only from filenames entered in
252 the restore command when reading a file. This permits
253 the user to enter filenames with trailing spaces. Fixes
254 bug #549. The user supplied a patch that I modified slightly.
255 - Use the most recent time (st_mtime, st_ctime) in the dir
256 command in restore. This gives the user a better idea of what
257 the newest file really is. This fixes bug #574. The fix
258 was suggested by the user.
259 - Implement a compatible version of base64. This permits external
260 programs to duplicate Bacula's base64 algorithm using standard
261 routines. This fixes bugs #296, and 565. Patch submitted by
263 ================= Note ========================
264 Previous Signatures stored in the database are no longer
265 compatible with this. The main downside is for Verify jobs,
266 and doing an InitCatalog run will fix the problem. Also, the
267 authentication between the deamons is changed, so all daemons
268 must be simultaneously upgraded.
269 ==============================================
270 If you don't like this fix, set:
271 const bool compatible = true;
273 const bool compatible = false;

422 mutex for cond variable to avoid blocking jcr chain. Fix poor
423 use of jcr use count in jobq.c for restarted jobs.
424 - Fix obsolete usage of foreach_dlist() to use foreach_jcr() in
425 lib/jcr.c -- prevents locking the jcr chaing.

452 be the numeric (non-unique) job id.
453 - Allow listing by any of the above.
454 - Add the user friendly job report code for reporting job elapsed time
455 and rates with suffexes from John Kodis <kodis at comcast.net>.

511 that the subroutine can switch devices, and hence dcrs.
512 - Modify the multiple MediaType read code to re-use the same
513 dcr when switching devices. This makes the code much more
515 - Integrate patch from Karl Hakimian that reads JobIds, FileIndexes
516 from a table for restore.
517 - Add Storage name to VolParams, but it really should be Device.
519 - Add disk-changer to scripts directory + configure/Makefile

543 a different slot for each Volume.
546 - Implement Pool storage overrides.
548 - Implement first cut of Migration.
549 - Implement mysql_use_result() from patch by Karl Hakimian.
550 This reduces significantly the memory consumption during
551 the restore tree building, and hence runs faster too.
552 - Implement StorageId patch supplied by user (reggie) in bug
553 #536. This should permit Bacula to work correctly with two
555 - Implement Job listing variations suggested by a user.
556 - Move updating bootstrap code in backup.c to subroutine
557 update_bootstrap_file().
558 - Add new job status elapsed time and bytes written user

567 - Fix typo (strcpy->strcmp) in ua_prune.c as reported by Martin.
568 - Fix command arg name->volume in label command of gnome-console.
569 - Fix SD acquire.c to release correct DCR by explicitly testing
570 on the dcr address rather than trying to devine if it is a read
571 or write dcr. This failed in error conditions when the device was
575 - Apply user supplied patch for more readable rate output
577 - Continue implementing migration.
578 - Implement support for removable filesystems in SD.
579 - Ensure that btraceback scripts can be read by anyone.
580 - Replace dvd-freespace and dvd-writepart by dvd-handler.
581 - Correct bug where canceling restore before the FD contacts
582 the SD causes the drive to be left in read mode.
583 - Move ofline_or_rewind into DEVICE::close().
584 - Eliminate close_device.
585 - Convert several dev subroutines to methods (e.g. bsf,
587 - Eliminate force_close_device().
588 - Implement Device Type directive in Device resource that
589 can have values File, Tape, Fifo, DVD, or Prog.
590 - Add has_cap() method to Device.
593 - Add patch from bug #527 to allow RedHat user to specify
594 options/user/group for starting each daemon in
597 - Add two new queries to query.sql provided by Arno. One
598 list volumes known to the Storage device, and the other
599 lists volumes possibly needing replacement (error, ...).
601 - Add periodic (every 24 hours) garbage collection of memory
602 pool by releasing free buffers.
604 - Correct bug counting sized (for display only) in smartall.c
605 - Print FD mempool stats if debug > 0 rather than 5.
607 - Make db_lock() mutex error fail the job rather than abort
608 Bacula. Canceling the job caused the mutex to fail.
609 - Correct bug in alist.c that re-allocated the list if the
610 number of items goes to zero.
611 - Move the reservation system thread locking to the top level
612 so that one job at a time tries all possible drives before
614 - Implement a reservation 'fail' message queue that is built
615 and destroyed on each pass through the reservation system.
616 These messages are displayed in a 'Jobs waiting to reserve
617 a drive' list during a 'status storage='. Note, multiple
618 messages will generally print for each JobId because they
619 represent the different problems with either the same drive
620 or different drives. If this output proves too confusing
621 of voluminous, I will display it only when debug level 1
622 or greater is enabled in the SD.
624 - Add enable/disable job=<job-name>. This command prevents
625 the specified job from being scheduled. Even when disabled,
626 the job can be manually started from the console.
627 - During 'update slots' clear all InChanger flags where the
628 StorageId is zero (old Media records).
632 - Fix autochanger code to strip leading spaces from returned
633 slots number. Remove bc from chio-changer.
634 - Back port a bit of 1.39 crypto code to reduce diffs.
635 - Fix first call to autochanger that missed close()ing the
636 drive. Put close() just before each run_program(). Fixes
639 - Add PoolId to Job record when updating it at job start time.
641 - Pull in more code from 1.39 so that there are fewer file
642 differences (the new ua_dotcmds.c, base64.h, crypto.h
643 hmac.c jcr.c (dird and lib) lib.h md5.h parse_conf.c
644 util.c. Aside from ua_dotcmds.c these are mostly crypto
646 - Implement new method of walking the jcr chain. The
647 incr/dec of the use_count is done within the walking
648 routines. This should prevent a jcr from being freed
649 from under the walk routines.
654 - Start implementing Verify list output.
655 - Move the suitable_drive flag to a better place to prevent
656 premature termination of the reservation if all drives
657 are busy -- should fix Arno's diff/inc pool failures.
659 - Add mutex to single thread VSS code in Win32.
661 - Simplify code in askdir.c that waits for creating an appendable
662 volume so that it can handle multiple returns from the wait
664 - Modify the wait code to permit multiple returns.
665 - Return a zero when "autochanger drives" is called and
666 it is not an autochanger.
667 - Make rewind_dev() a method taking a DCR as an argument.
668 This permits closing and reopening the drive if the
669 rewind fails as happens if the drive was loaded while the
670 file descriptor was open. This refreshes the file descriptor.
671 - Remove the ST_OPENED flag and always rely on fd < 0 for knowing
672 if the device is open or not. This should eliminate
674 - Return error if reserve cannot find at least one suitable device.
675 - Make wait_for_sysop() return correct state information.
676 - Fix Win32 state file problem. write was not using compat
677 code. This should fix bug #500.
679 - Modify gui on command to set only GUI mode and not batch.
680 - Modify .messages command to always print messages regardless
682 - If GUI mode is on, suppress automatic printing of
684 - Delete old bnet packet code.
685 - Ignore new BNET_START_SELECT and BNET_END_SELECT signals in
687 - Modify restore command in wx-console to set gui on and to use
688 only .messages instead of messages. Hopefully this fixes bug
690 - Fix seg fault in exit of acquire when canceling a job --
691 reported by Wolfgang Denk
692 - Pull in latest reservation system changes from 1.38
693 - Make .messages command always print messages regardless
694 of the automessages flag.
696 - Fix seg fault if user labels a drive directory bug #513

704 for any mounted volume, then anyone anywhere.
705 - Add quotes around table Version because of
706 error in MySQL 4.1.15 -- bug report submitted.

709 - Updates to ssh-tunnel from Joshua Kugler.
710 - Added a report.pl program from Jonas Bjorklund.
711 - Simplify the O_NONBLOCK open() code for tape drives,
712 and always open nonblocking.
713 - Do not wait for open() if EIO returned (shouldn't happen).
714 - Eliminate 3 argument to tape open().
715 - Correct the slot # edited in the 3995 Bad autochanger unload
717 - With -S on bscan (show progress) do not divide by zero.
719 - Make cancel pthread_cond_signal() pthread_cond_broadcast().
720 - When dcr is freed, also broadcast dev->wait_next_vol signal.
721 - Remove unused code in wait_for_device.
722 - Make wait_for_device() always return after 60 seconds of wait.
726 - Add stubs for non-crypto build.
728 - Use localhost if no network configured
730 - Eliminated duplicate MaxVolBytes in cat update -- bug 509.
731 - Remove debug print.
732 - Add bail_out in error during state file reading.
734 - Merge changes made to 1.38.3 into HEAD
735 - Add stubs for pygtk-console code
736 - Create Makefile.in for pygtk-console code
738 - Merge updates into 1.38 branch
739 - Update specs to include mysql4 define.
740 - Fix when attributes are sent, must be after binit().
741 - Stop read_record() if status not ok in second loop.
742 - Return rec->FileIndex in dcr->VolLastIndex for normal
743 and partial records in read_record(). This allows bscan
744 to get FileIndex at EOT correct.
745 - Fix butil.c to correctly set dcr -- fixes seg fault in bls.
747 - Fix Win32 built to work with new crypto code.
748 - Apply patch supplied by user (slightly modified) to fix
749 correct detection of holes in block devices and FIFOs.

755 - Add nagios plugin to the examples directory. Submitted by
757 - Remove warning message about multiple saves of hardlinked files
758 from find_one.c as it can generate too many warning messages.
759 - Modify most restore error messages to be queued so that they
760 appear at the end of the job rather than mixted with the restore
761 listing where they could be "lost".
763 - Reset timeout values before select() per patch from
764 Frank Sweetser for problems with non-blocking sockets.
765 - Unlink the state file if either reading or writing it gets
766 errors. Hopefully this will fix Win32 exit problems.
767 - Add sanity check in append.c to ensure that dcr is not NULL.
768 This can happen if multiple drive autochanger SCSI control
769 channel and drive indicies do not correspond.
771 - Get next volume from Scratch pool before creating a volume.
772 - Set new Pool defaults in Vol when moved from Scratch Pool.
