306 kes Implement Windows reparse points -- similar to directories, but
307 we do not descend into it. This is a first cut. They seem to
308 be backed up, but restore is not yet tested.
309 kes Remove restore_blocking in tls code when shutting a socket to leave
310 it in blocking mode. Hopefully this will fix the encryption bug
311 reported by Frank Sweetser.
312 kes When opening a file for backup, tell the OS that we are going to
313 read it sequentially -- optimization.

347 kes Tweak debug code in autochanger reservation.
349 kes Add some additional locking in the cats directory in subroutines
350 that modify packet variables called from batch insert.
351 kes Rework how dcrs are allocated. new_dcr() can now be called
352 with an existing pointer, and it will simply clean it up.
353 This allows the reservation system to test various different
354 devices, and will permit easy device changes.
355 kes A bunch of changes all over to handle new new_dcr() calling
357 kes Work more on the Volume management in the SD. Remember Volumes
358 for tape drives and for autochangers (even virtual disk changers).

380 place of the old bnet_xxx code.
381 kes Implement code that does an on the fly calculation of the
382 signing digest during restore of encrypted files. It makes
383 a best guess at the algorithm, and if it is not correct, will
384 then revert to the old code which reads the file after it is
386 kes Implement at least one missing crypto stream in stream_to_ascii()
387 kes Apply patch from William <chowmeined@gmail.com> that fixes bug
388 #877 where a reload with bad syntax causes Dir to exit.
390 Cut: 2.1.14 beta (not released)
392 kes Do not free a volume on a tape drive until another volume is
393 mounted and read, or the autochanger unloads the volume.
394 This should help the SD re-use volumes that are already mounted,
395 and should fix bug #886.
396 kes Apply patch from user brettedgar that allows gnome2-console include
397 the OpenSSL libraries, and hence work with SSL. Fixes bug #885.

446 Prefer Mounted Volumes = no.
447 kes Fix a Bacula PostgreSQL bug dereferencing a NULL pointer
448 returned from a query.

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

778 it has changed during backup, if 'checkfilechanges' is set.
779 The FD will do an extra check (stat(2)) after
780 each file backup. mtime, ctime and size are compared with
781 'before backup' information. If time or size mismatch, an
782 error message will be generated. You must upgrade FD to use it.

819 previous change (probably the recent TLS patch).
821 kes Write new subroutine is_volume_purged() that explicitly checks
822 if the Volume is purged, and if so marks it as such. This should
823 resolve problems reported about needing to mount twice to recycle
825 kes Rewrite pruning algorithm to do more work in the SQL engine, and
826 to pass a list of JobIds to be deleted to SQL. Also, minimize the
827 amount of duplicated code.
828 kes Do volume pruning only for the Media Type desired (reduces pruning time
829 if multiple Media Types are in the same pool).
830 kes Implement more detailed info in the Job report for the Bacula version

856 ebl Fix AfterJob timing
857 kes Move the checking of the database in initializion of the Director

902 kes Add Client Connect Wait to Storage daemon to permit users to
903 modify the time the SD waits for a FD connection.
905 kes Correct virtual changer check which was backwards. This caused

919 kes Begin implementing new comm signals for API.
920 kes Fix a few places in lib/message.c where the open fd may
922 kes Continue implementing lib/bsock.c (real class). Make jcr,
923 who, host, and port private. There are new methods to access
924 them for non-class use. This required touching a number of files.
926 kes Add LANG=C to autoconf/randpass so it works with languages other
927 than English. Fixes bug #788.
929 ebl Revert ClientRunBeforeJob to old position as in 1.38.X.
931 You will not be able to generate Include/Exclude list any more.
932 It will be fixed soon.

934 trunk/bacula/patches/testing/clientrunbeforejob_can_generate_include_exclude_list.patch
936 kes Restore of sockets created false error messages because Bacula
937 no longer restores sockets, but the code was still trying to
938 set the attributes on a non-existent file. Reported by a user.
939 ebl finish RecyclePool feature
940 Media will takes Pool.RecyclePool
941 when moving from Scratch to a Pool or when user will do
942 update volume=xxx frompool
943 To use it, add RecyclePool = aPool to your Pool resource
946 RecyclePool = Scratch
950 kes Expand new BSOCK class adding signal() and new BNET signals.
951 kes Begin enhancing the dot commands adding a new API function
952 that returns more information and will make it easier
953 to interface to the Director from a program.
955 kes Make DEVICE fd private. Its new name is m_fd, and can be
956 obtained with dev->fd() outside the class. This is the
957 first of many DEVICE members to be made private.
958 kes Implement Michael Renner's idea on having a virtual disk
959 changer. I made some minor modifications (e.g. I did not
960 implement the Virtual Changer directive, but simply set
961 the Changer Command to an empty string.
963 kes Implement a BSOCK send() method that writes the whole record
964 in a single write() request rather than in two.
965 ebl add update volume=xxx recyclepool=yyyy
966 volume takes recyclepool from pool when using update volume=xxx from pool
968 kes Fix encryption deblocking bug, which caused some restored files

982 in the case of orphaned records.
983 kes Modify dbcheck to handle orphaned JobMedia, Path, Filename,
984 and File records in 300K chunks to be more efficient. This
985 idea came from Juan Luis Frances (if I remember right).
986 kes Apply Eric's scratch patch that moves a purged Volume to
987 the RecyclePool. Question: how is RecyclePool set? what
988 happens to the ScratchPool?
989 kes Apply Eric's media patch that collects read/write media
990 times as well as byte counts. This patch requires a
991 simultaneous upgrade of the DIR and SD. Note, there
992 should be some way to turn off timing. I'm not sure
993 times are in Bacula units.
994 kes Apply Eric's batch-insert patch.
996 kes Update projects list.
998 kes Implement Include/Exclude file lists in FD as dlists using
999 the new dlistString class. This permits efficiently having
1000 large include/exclude lists and completes project Item 25.

1002 console is authorized to cancel the job. This fixes bug
1004 kes Modify SD so that the VolCatJobs medium record is updated
1005 at the beginning of a Job rather than the end. This
1006 fixes bug #775 where exceeding MaxVolJobs caused jobs
1008 kes Added a mutex around getting and setting Volume information
1009 so that multiple simultaneous jobs will single thread.
1011 Switch to using Subversion
1012 kes Remove src/pygtk-console/ from configure
1014 kes Delete src/lib/btree.c from win32 build, then add rblist.c
1015 plus the entrypoints.
1016 kes Apply patch supplied that corrects debug print
1017 in canceling jobs for max run time. Supplied as
1018 part of bug #621, which was previously fixed.
1020 kes Test on job_canceled() and sd_msg_thread_done inside
1021 loop starting the message thread to avoid a race condition.
1023 kes Remove rl_catch_signal from console.c as it conflicted
1024 with the header definition. Fixes bug #765.
1025 ebl Fixes bug #766 about RunsOnClient = Yes (case sensitive)
1027 kes Clarify some stored/acquire messages to indicate if the
1028 problem is with read or append.
1030 kes Fix memory leak with storage ids in cats/sql_get.c
1031 kes Terminate watchdog earlier to avoid reference to released
1032 memory -- reported by Jason Austin.
1033 kes Move closing the database from jobq.c to the director daemon
1034 termination routine. This fixes memory leaks for shadow jobs
1035 (i.e. migration jobs).
1036 kes Free up the unique jobid chain items in migrate.c. This fixes
1037 a memory leak problem.
1038 kes Convert some ugly looking for statements to use foreach_alist
1039 in findlib/find.c. This will facilitate converting the structures
1040 to use dlist (for large include/exclude lists).
1041 kes Fix a bug in the btree.c and btree.h routines, then rename them
1042 rblist and add them to be built in src/lib. Include some new
1043 methods written by Rudolf Cejka that make the code more readable
1044 (hides some of the ugly casting).
1045 kes Add set_next() and set_prev() methods which make the code much more
1046 readable. Also add a new dlistString class that facilitates storing
1047 strings in dlists. To be used in the large include/exclude lists.
1048 kes Make some trivial modifications to lib/tree.h that use rblist
1049 rather than dlist for storing the tree links. This was suggested
1050 by Rudolf Cejka. The result of this is that the restore tree now
1051 uses red-black binary trees rather than simple linked lists. This
1052 should give rather dramatic speed improvements for directories
1053 contining large numbers of directories/files (more than 10000).
1055 kes Fix maxruntime bug #621.
1057 ebl Implement the include JobID in spool file name project.

1095 kes Modify USTORE constructor to set an empty store_source string,
1096 and don't copy the store_source string in a cancel. Hopefully
1097 this will fix Arno's seg fault, bug #744.
1098 kes Add back code to disable conio in configure. Fixes bug #743.
1099 kes Correct the Options scanner in the FD to correctly handle
1100 SHA1 option, which was eating the next option. Reported by
