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

338 kes Tweak debug code in autochanger reservation.
340 kes Add some additional locking in the cats directory in subroutines
341 that modify packet variables called from batch insert.
342 kes Rework how dcrs are allocated. new_dcr() can now be called
343 with an existing pointer, and it will simply clean it up.

371 place of the old bnet_xxx code.
372 kes Implement code that does an on the fly calculation of the
373 signing digest during restore of encrypted files. It makes
374 a best guess at the algorithm, and if it is not correct, will
375 then revert to the old code which reads the file after it is
377 kes Implement at least one missing crypto stream in stream_to_ascii()
378 kes Apply patch from William <chowmeined@gmail.com> that fixes bug
379 #877 where a reload with bad syntax causes Dir to exit.
381 Cut: 2.1.14 beta (not released)
383 kes Do not free a volume on a tape drive until another volume is
384 mounted and read, or the autochanger unloads the volume.
385 This should help the SD re-use volumes that are already mounted,
386 and should fix bug #886.
387 kes Apply patch from user brettedgar that allows gnome2-console include
388 the OpenSSL libraries, and hence work with SSL. Fixes bug #885.

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

437 Prefer Mounted Volumes = no.
438 kes Fix a Bacula PostgreSQL bug dereferencing a NULL pointer
439 returned from a query.

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

769 it has changed during backup, if 'checkfilechanges' is set.
770 The FD will do an extra check (stat(2)) after
771 each file backup. mtime, ctime and size are compared with
772 'before backup' information. If time or size mismatch, an

810 previous change (probably the recent TLS patch).
812 kes Write new subroutine is_volume_purged() that explicitly checks
813 if the Volume is purged, and if so marks it as such. This should
814 resolve problems reported about needing to mount twice to recycle
816 kes Rewrite pruning algorithm to do more work in the SQL engine, and
817 to pass a list of JobIds to be deleted to SQL. Also, minimize the
818 amount of duplicated code.

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

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

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

993 console is authorized to cancel the job. This fixes bug
995 kes Modify SD so that the VolCatJobs medium record is updated
996 at the beginning of a Job rather than the end. This
997 fixes bug #775 where exceeding MaxVolJobs caused jobs
999 kes Added a mutex around getting and setting Volume information
1000 so that multiple simultaneous jobs will single thread.
1002 Switch to using Subversion
1003 kes Remove src/pygtk-console/ from configure
1005 kes Delete src/lib/btree.c from win32 build, then add rblist.c
1006 plus the entrypoints.
1007 kes Apply patch supplied that corrects debug print
1008 in canceling jobs for max run time. Supplied as
1009 part of bug #621, which was previously fixed.
1011 kes Test on job_canceled() and sd_msg_thread_done inside
1012 loop starting the message thread to avoid a race condition.
1014 kes Remove rl_catch_signal from console.c as it conflicted
1015 with the header definition. Fixes bug #765.
1016 ebl Fixes bug #766 about RunsOnClient = Yes (case sensitive)
1018 kes Clarify some stored/acquire messages to indicate if the
1019 problem is with read or append.
1021 kes Fix memory leak with storage ids in cats/sql_get.c
1022 kes Terminate watchdog earlier to avoid reference to released
1023 memory -- reported by Jason Austin.
1024 kes Move closing the database from jobq.c to the director daemon
1025 termination routine. This fixes memory leaks for shadow jobs
1026 (i.e. migration jobs).
1027 kes Free up the unique jobid chain items in migrate.c. This fixes
1028 a memory leak problem.
1029 kes Convert some ugly looking for statements to use foreach_alist
1030 in findlib/find.c. This will facilitate converting the structures
1031 to use dlist (for large include/exclude lists).
1032 kes Fix a bug in the btree.c and btree.h routines, then rename them
1033 rblist and add them to be built in src/lib. Include some new
1034 methods written by Rudolf Cejka that make the code more readable
1035 (hides some of the ugly casting).
1036 kes Add set_next() and set_prev() methods which make the code much more
1037 readable. Also add a new dlistString class that facilitates storing
1038 strings in dlists. To be used in the large include/exclude lists.
1039 kes Make some trivial modifications to lib/tree.h that use rblist
1040 rather than dlist for storing the tree links. This was suggested
1041 by Rudolf Cejka. The result of this is that the restore tree now
1042 uses red-black binary trees rather than simple linked lists. This
1043 should give rather dramatic speed improvements for directories
1044 contining large numbers of directories/files (more than 10000).
1046 kes Fix maxruntime bug #621.
1048 ebl Implement the include JobID in spool file name project.

1087 and don't copy the store_source string in a cancel. Hopefully
1088 this will fix Arno's seg fault, bug #744.
1089 kes Add back code to disable conio in configure. Fixes bug #743.
1090 kes Correct the Options scanner in the FD to correctly handle
1091 SHA1 option, which was eating the next option. Reported by
