1 Technical notes on version 2.1
5 kes Move qwt (Graphics libarary for Qt4) to depkgs.
6 kes You now need a --with-qwt=<dir> to be able to build bat.
7 kes Update src/win32/cats/bacula_cats.def to include the new
8 db_get_query_dbids() call on Win32.
10 kes Correct a problem when selecting a scratch volume and moving
11 it to another pool that lost some columns.
12 kes Tweak some code in ua_update.c to use POOL_MEM instead of POOLMEM.
13 kes Enhance Autochanger error messages to include Volume and device name.
14 kes Rework prune_volumes() code to take account of InChanger flag,
15 and to handle recycling volumes going to the Scratch pool and
16 current pool because the RecyclePool directive.
17 kes Implement a better and more efficient db_get_query_dbids() to
18 handle creating and passing back a list of DBIds.
20 kes Start work on new more efficient DBId subroutine. First use
21 will be for recycling volume to Scratch inchanger.
22 kes Increase number of JobIds in pruning from 1000 to 10000.
23 This to be replaced by above routine.
24 kes Begin implementation of building Qt4 on Win32.
25 kes Correct typo in fix I added for bad TLS shutdown.
26 kes Pull 2.0.3 patches into patches directory.
27 kes Update Release notes. Include qt-console in line count.
28 kes Update Projects file.
30 kes Integrate patch from Sergey Svishchev <svs@ropnet.ru> that fixes
31 bug in migration code where a job that spanned two volumes
34 kes Implement new BST_DESPOOLING blocked state. Change from locking
35 during despooling in SD to blocking. This means that other threads
36 can work with the device structure, in particular the reservations
37 system while despooling.
39 kes Fix return in reservation message queue that missed clearing
40 the jcr lock (implemented 26Jun07 below).
41 kes Rename a number of dev methods to make locking function names
43 kes Document locking in lock.c. Move lock structures to new file
46 kes Move reservations message lock to lock jcr only this
48 kes Move main SD locking code into lock.c (new file).
49 kes Update Win32 build to include lock.c
53 kes Dirk committed the qwt library code for drawing graphs in bat.
54 kes Tweak install of qwt so that it is integrated with ./configure.
56 kes Fix HAVE_BATCH_INSERT to be HAVE_BATCH_FILE_INSERT, pointed
57 out by Eric (my typo).
58 ebl Fix configure.in to get batch mode enable
59 kes Return correct string from authenticate.cpp in bat when connecting
61 kes Apply patch suggested by Frank Sweetser to fix bug #888 --
62 spurious line drops when using TLS.
63 kes Do not file reparse points when restoring a file that already
66 kes Implement Windows reparse points -- similar to directories, but
67 we do not descend into it. This is a first cut. They seem to
68 be backed up, but restore is not yet tested.
69 kes Remove restore_blocking in tls code when shutting a socket to leave
70 it in blocking mode. Hopefully this will fix the encryption bug
71 reported by Frank Sweetser.
72 kes When opening a file for backup, tell the OS that we are going to
73 read it sequentially -- optimization.
74 kes Change variable names in authenticate_director() to not conflict
75 with member names in bat. Caused great confusion with compiler,
78 kes Queue openssl error messages in case of comm problem.
79 kes Do shutdown() call if socket terminated.
80 kes Remove some duplicated code in tls.c
81 kes Move more of the bsock member variables into private and access
83 kes Add Frank Sweetser's tls-test to the regression suite.
85 kes Add Swedish sv.po file
87 kes Don't print clock skew message in FD if less than 3 seconds diff.
88 kes Add a bit of VSS info to status client.
89 kes Implement a first cut of Vista VSS, using Win2003 code.
93 kes Fixed bug #886 (multidrive autochanger: SD doesn't use drive with
94 loaded tape but uses first drive).
95 kes Fixed bug #807 Restore encrypted backup failed on Windows 2003
96 This was indeed a Win32 issue.
98 kes Simplify search of autochanger for in-use Volume.
99 kes Fix exit condition of check for in-use volume. kes Remove
100 inappropriate my_postgresql_free_result() in db_close()
102 kes Fix bad return in FD when encryption signature not found.
103 Probably caused a crash.
104 kes Inhibit missing encryption signature error messages for
105 file types where no signature computed.
106 kes Correct inverted check on autochanger in reservation system.
107 kes Tweak debug code in autochanger reservation.
109 kes Add some additional locking in the cats directory in subroutines
110 that modify packet variables called from batch insert.
111 kes Rework how dcrs are allocated. new_dcr() can now be called
112 with an existing pointer, and it will simply clean it up.
113 This allows the reservation system to test various different
114 devices, and will permit easy device changes.
115 kes A bunch of changes all over to handle new new_dcr() calling
117 kes Work more on the Volume management in the SD. Remember Volumes
118 for tape drives and for autochangers (even virtual disk changers).
119 kes When looking at the Volume list to reserve a drive, handle
120 autochanger names correctly by interating through the changer
121 devices. Also call the Director to see if a Volume is suitable
123 kes Fix some bugs in bscan. Make sure all media records are written.
124 Make sure that valid JobMedia records are written for disk files.
125 Previously they were completely wrong.
126 kes Move source tar files for depkgs-mingw32 to www.bacula.org so
127 that the URLs don't change and so that the developers will all
128 work off the same copy. Rebuild from scrach.
129 kes Upgrade Win32 SQLite3 from 3.3.8 to 3.3.17.
133 kes Fix seg fault in FD from incorrect digest size.
134 kes Fix argument to non-OpenSSL crypto.c subroutine.
138 kes Remove a few malloc()s from the encryption code.
139 kes Use the class calls to bsock in filed/backup.c and restore.c in
140 place of the old bnet_xxx code.
141 kes Implement code that does an on the fly calculation of the
142 signing digest during restore of encrypted files. It makes
143 a best guess at the algorithm, and if it is not correct, will
144 then revert to the old code which reads the file after it is
146 kes Implement at least one missing crypto stream in stream_to_ascii()
147 kes Apply patch from William <chowmeined@gmail.com> that fixes bug
148 #877 where a reload with bad syntax causes Dir to exit.
150 Cut: 2.1.14 beta (not released)
152 kes Do not free a volume on a tape drive until another volume is
153 mounted and read, or the autochanger unloads the volume.
154 This should help the SD re-use volumes that are already mounted,
155 and should fix bug #886.
156 kes Apply patch from user brettedgar that allows gnome2-console include
157 the OpenSSL libraries, and hence work with SSL. Fixes bug #885.
158 kes Apply patch from Lucien Weller that fixes day of week calculation
159 because of DST flag problem. Fixes bug #887.
161 kes Move find_next_appendable_volume() to after acquiring a valid device
162 in reserve.c. This fixes bug #864 -- confirmed by reporter.
164 kes Unable to reproduce bug 872. However added additional testing for
166 kes Bug #874 resolved by documenting SQLite limitations.
167 kes Bug #882 resolved by documenting mtx-changer script for new drive code.
168 kes Bug #881 resolved by removing typo in mtx-changer script.

179 kes Move get_jobid_from_tid() into lib and create a
181 kes Use get_jcr_from_tid() to conver all tls Emsg() to Jmsg(). This
182 should definitely fix the problem of lost error messages in the
184 kes Remove over zellous addition of FSFE copyright in a few eggxxx files.

191 kes Fix a seg fault in the PostgreSQL driver dereferencing a NULL pointer.
193 kes Implement SQLITE3_INIT_QUERY in version.h that can do an initial
194 query for SQLite3. Use it to set PRAGMA synchronous = OFF. This
195 makes SQLit3 run 30 times faster, though a bit less safe.
196 kes Implement --with-batch-insert in configure and detection of thread
197 safe libraries. It is on by default, but turned off if no thread
198 safe library (e.g. SQLite 2) is available.
200 kes Fix Bacula PostgreSQL buffer overruns.
201 kes Do better checking for NULL results returned from PostgreSQL;
202 implement retry for failed queries; clear results buffer after
203 failed query. Hopefully this will correct the PostgreSQL failures.

206 Prefer Mounted Volumes = no.
207 kes Fix a Bacula PostgreSQL bug dereferencing a NULL pointer
208 returned from a query.
209 kes Make volume lock recursive.

213 find a suitable device.
214 kes Add new reservations debug code and refine the old code.
215 kes Update the win32/dll/bacula.defs file.
217 kes Tweak reservations algorithm to permit a few more cases, i.e.
218 volume reserved, but on different drive, ...

220 more readable format (a bit longer).
221 kes Fix PostgreSQL double free.
223 kes Minor refactoring of restore decryption code.
224 kes Add code to smartall.c to detect double free of a buffer.
226 kes Add < > around %r in from field on mail command of bacula-dir.conf.in
227 so that bsmtp will create a correct email address (mailbox only).
228 kes Modify 'memory' command so that the buffers are listed as 'In use'
229 to avoid confusion with Orphaned buffers.

579 previous change (probably the recent TLS patch).
581 kes Write new subroutine is_volume_purged() that explicitly checks
582 if the Volume is purged, and if so marks it as such. This should
583 resolve problems reported about needing to mount twice to recycle
585 kes Rewrite pruning algorithm to do more work in the SQL engine, and
586 to pass a list of JobIds to be deleted to SQL. Also, minimize the
587 amount of duplicated code.
588 kes Do volume pruning only for the Media Type desired (reduces pruning time
589 if multiple Media Types are in the same pool).
590 kes Implement more detailed info in the Job report for the Bacula version
592 kes Switch from POOLMEM to POOL_MEM (a real class) in ua_prune.c and
594 ebl Add bbatch tool to bench database and insert mode.
595 Fix sql quote stuff in batch mode
596 Fix sql stuff for mysql
598 kes Correct problems with am/pm scheduling. Fixes bug #808.
599 kes Implement new prunning code that prunes up to 1000 jobs at
600 the same time. The same technique can be applied to a number
601 of other prune/purge subroutines.
602 kes Add an insanity check when starting a new tape job to ensure
603 that the tape position has not been changed. If so fail the
605 kes Fix Win32 build for dlls to add the folllowing:
606 src/lib/bsock.c -- new file with new entry points
607 src/lib/dlist.c -- new entry points
608 src/cats/sql_create.c -- new entry point
609 src/cats/sql_cmds.c -- new DATA item exported
611 ebl batch mode cleanup bscan-test is ok now.
612 kes Implement SD code to check length of disk volume before appending.
614 kes Correct return status on db_batch... routines.
615 kes Add call to db_write_batch_file_records() to migration code.
616 ebl Fix AfterJob timing
617 kes Move the checking of the database in initializion of the Director
618 to after we drop privileges. This avoids the need for both root
619 and bacula access to the DB.
620 kes Correct a misplaced variable definition in src/filed/backup.c
621 kes Correct how the new batch insert db_create_attributes_record()
622 uses the arguments. Caused a seg fault in bscan.
623 kes Implement lock() and unlock() methods in DEVICE class.
624 Implement block() and set_block(xx) methods in DEVICE class.
625 kes Modify bnet_connect() so that it uses time() to check for the
626 wait time expiring (on some OSes, some system calls may not
628 kes Modify Verify to obtain the previous JobId when it is actually
629 running rather than at schedule time (as it was in 1.38.x).
630 kes Fix src/job.c to handle MaxWaitTime correctly. This should
632 kes When checking pid in pid file, continue running if the pid is
633 the same as ours. This occurs on IRIX after a system crash.
636 kes Extend new GUI API.
637 kes Make the ua structure a class, and implement send_msg(),
638 error_msg(), warning_msg(), and info_msg().
640 kes Apply fix from for building wx-console on the Mac from

643 kes Reorganize initialization of stackedWidgets in bat.
645 kes Add updated nagios plugin supplied by Christian Masopust.
647 kes More bat implementation.
648 kes File migrate bug with Pool Occupancy using mediaid instead
649 of jobids. Fixes bug #795.
650 kes Fix orphaned buffers in filed backup and verify due to
651 crypto buffers not freed during errors. Fixes bug #789.
652 kes Extend new GUI api code to tree commands.
653 kes Ensure that tree and dot commands check console ACLs.
654 kes Permit marking directory with trailing slash.
655 kes Allow 20 console connections (instead of only 10).
657 kes Add smartctl call to bacula-sd.conf as an example of getting
660 kes Modify jobq.c to let simultaneous restore jobs run. This may
661 cause them to fail if they cannot get a drive.
662 kes Add Client Connect Wait to Storage daemon to permit users to
663 modify the time the SD waits for a FD connection.
665 kes Correct virtual changer check which was backwards. This caused
666 volumes to be unloaded into slots already occupied.
668 kes Apply Command ACL filter to JobId list in restore command.
669 kes Correct typeo in var.c patch.
671 kes Don't let Bacula prune File or Job records for the current Job.
672 kes Fix variable substitution pad + inc bug reported (with patch)
675 kes Correct SQLite log table index as reported by Luca Berra.
677 ebl fix fifo stuff, bacula tries to rewind the fifo... Thanks to Andreas
679 kes Begin implementing new comm signals for API.
680 kes Fix a few places in lib/message.c where the open fd may
682 kes Continue implementing lib/bsock.c (real class). Make jcr,
683 who, host, and port private. There are new methods to access
684 them for non-class use. This required touching a number of files.
686 kes Add LANG=C to autoconf/randpass so it works with languages other
687 than English. Fixes bug #788.
689 ebl Revert ClientRunBeforeJob to old position as in 1.38.X.
691 You will not be able to generate Include/Exclude list any more.
692 It will be fixed soon.
693 If you want to use this, you can apply
694 trunk/bacula/patches/testing/clientrunbeforejob_can_generate_include_exclude_list.patch
696 kes Restore of sockets created false error messages because Bacula
697 no longer restores sockets, but the code was still trying to
698 set the attributes on a non-existent file. Reported by a user.
699 ebl finish RecyclePool feature
700 Media will takes Pool.RecyclePool
701 when moving from Scratch to a Pool or when user will do
702 update volume=xxx frompool
703 To use it, add RecyclePool = aPool to your Pool resource
706 RecyclePool = Scratch
710 kes Expand new BSOCK class adding signal() and new BNET signals.
711 kes Begin enhancing the dot commands adding a new API function
712 that returns more information and will make it easier
713 to interface to the Director from a program.
715 kes Make DEVICE fd private. Its new name is m_fd, and can be
716 obtained with dev->fd() outside the class. This is the
717 first of many DEVICE members to be made private.
718 kes Implement Michael Renner's idea on having a virtual disk
719 changer. I made some minor modifications (e.g. I did not
720 implement the Virtual Changer directive, but simply set
721 the Changer Command to an empty string.
723 kes Implement a BSOCK send() method that writes the whole record
724 in a single write() request rather than in two.
725 ebl add update volume=xxx recyclepool=yyyy
726 volume takes recyclepool from pool when using update volume=xxx from pool
728 kes Fix encryption deblocking bug, which caused some restored files
729 to be truncated. This fixes bug #763.
730 kes Add FD event sequence order prepared by Eric -- for RunScripts.
731 kes Fix 12am/pm bug as reported in bug #782 -- scheduler problem.
733 kes Apply Eric's ClientRunScriptAfter patch to 2.0 and 2.1.
734 ebl Use btime_t instead of uint64_t in media patch.
736 kes Optimize the use of the database a bit in the Status dir command.
737 Only open it when needed, ensure that if any previous database
738 was opened, it is closed.
740 kes Correct VolCatBytes bug from media patch.
741 kes Apply patch from bug #612 by Rudolf Cejka to speedup pruning
742 in the case of orphaned records.
743 kes Modify dbcheck to handle orphaned JobMedia, Path, Filename,
744 and File records in 300K chunks to be more efficient. This
745 idea came from Juan Luis Frances (if I remember right).
746 kes Apply Eric's scratch patch that moves a purged Volume to
747 the RecyclePool. Question: how is RecyclePool set? what
748 happens to the ScratchPool?
749 kes Apply Eric's media patch that collects read/write media
750 times as well as byte counts. This patch requires a
751 simultaneous upgrade of the DIR and SD. Note, there
752 should be some way to turn off timing. I'm not sure
753 times are in Bacula units.
754 kes Apply Eric's batch-insert patch.
756 kes Update projects list.
758 kes Implement Include/Exclude file lists in FD as dlists using
759 the new dlistString class. This permits efficiently having
760 large include/exclude lists and completes project Item 25.
761 kes Fix dird/ua_cmds.c so that a cancel command checks if the
762 console is authorized to cancel the job. This fixes bug
764 kes Modify SD so that the VolCatJobs medium record is updated
765 at the beginning of a Job rather than the end. This
766 fixes bug #775 where exceeding MaxVolJobs caused jobs
768 kes Added a mutex around getting and setting Volume information
769 so that multiple simultaneous jobs will single thread.
771 Switch to using Subversion
772 kes Remove src/pygtk-console/ from configure
774 kes Delete src/lib/btree.c from win32 build, then add rblist.c
775 plus the entrypoints.
776 kes Apply patch supplied that corrects debug print
777 in canceling jobs for max run time. Supplied as
778 part of bug #621, which was previously fixed.
780 kes Test on job_canceled() and sd_msg_thread_done inside
781 loop starting the message thread to avoid a race condition.
783 kes Remove rl_catch_signal from console.c as it conflicted
784 with the header definition. Fixes bug #765.
785 ebl Fixes bug #766 about RunsOnClient = Yes (case sensitive)
787 kes Clarify some stored/acquire messages to indicate if the
788 problem is with read or append.
790 kes Fix memory leak with storage ids in cats/sql_get.c
791 kes Terminate watchdog earlier to avoid reference to released
792 memory -- reported by Jason Austin.
793 kes Move closing the database from jobq.c to the director daemon
794 termination routine. This fixes memory leaks for shadow jobs
795 (i.e. migration jobs).
796 kes Free up the unique jobid chain items in migrate.c. This fixes
797 a memory leak problem.
798 kes Convert some ugly looking for statements to use foreach_alist
799 in findlib/find.c. This will facilitate converting the structures
800 to use dlist (for large include/exclude lists).
801 kes Fix a bug in the btree.c and btree.h routines, then rename them
802 rblist and add them to be built in src/lib. Include some new
803 methods written by Rudolf Cejka that make the code more readable
804 (hides some of the ugly casting).
805 kes Add set_next() and set_prev() methods which make the code much more
806 readable. Also add a new dlistString class that facilitates storing
807 strings in dlists. To be used in the large include/exclude lists.
808 kes Make some trivial modifications to lib/tree.h that use rblist
809 rather than dlist for storing the tree links. This was suggested
810 by Rudolf Cejka. The result of this is that the restore tree now
811 uses red-black binary trees rather than simple linked lists. This
812 should give rather dramatic speed improvements for directories
813 contining large numbers of directories/files (more than 10000).
815 kes Fix maxruntime bug #621.
817 ebl Implement the include JobID in spool file name project.
818 kes Reorder projects file in order determined by Jan 2007 vote.
819 kes Implement item #12 on project list -- quick release of FD by
821 kes Fix open of SQLite3 db where user does not have write permission
822 so that DIR does not crash. Fixes bug #761.
824 kes Add back missing @ in Win32 Makefile.
825 kes Change 'Device not configured to autolabel' from INFO
827 kes Fix jobq.c to restart failed jobs when Reschedule Times = 0
828 which should restart an indefinite # of times.
829 kes Fix configure --help to print --with-mysql[=DIR]. Same for
830 other DIR specifications.
832 rn Fix msvc build problems. Fix bacula.dll exports for msvc build.
833 Fix path quoting in SQLite scripts.
834 Fix problems with SHGetFolderPath.
836 kes Create patches/2.0.1-restart.patch. Fixes bug #755.
838 kes Fix Job restart on error bug that promotes an Inc to a Full
839 backup. This should fix bug #755.
840 kes Add qt-console and first cut of code.
844 kes Fix Bacula->Documentation link on Win32 to point to index.html
845 instead of bacula.html. Fixed bug #750.
846 kes Return JobId in db_get_job_record() when JobId==0. This should
848 kes Do not release source pointers when restarting a failed job.
850 kes Add dynamic dll entry point for SHGetFolderPath to Win32 code.
851 This *should* fix bug #747.
852 kes Modify winbacula.nsi to substitute with g bin_dir_cmd. Should fix
855 kes Modify USTORE constructor to set an empty store_source string,
856 and don't copy the store_source string in a cancel. Hopefully
857 this will fix Arno's seg fault, bug #744.
858 kes Add back code to disable conio in configure. Fixes bug #743.
859 kes Correct the Options scanner in the FD to correctly handle
860 SHA1 option, which was eating the next option. Reported by
862 kes Add code to indicate when the SD is spooling, spool wait, and
863 despooling as requested by Alan Brown.
865 Version 2.0.0 released: 4 January 2007
