1 Technical notes on version 2.3
5 kes Back out one small change to the reservation system (reserving a volume).
6 kes Rework how a Volume is mounted. It is now much more intelligent and
7 will always attempt to use any mounted volume if possible and reduces
8 calls to the Director asking about volumes.
10 kes Turn off some code when batch insert not enabled.
11 kes Edit FD name in connect error messages.
12 kes Rework the reservation system to take into account that the Director
13 might give us a Volume that is different from the current one being
14 used, and to ensure that we don't exceed Maximum Volume Jobs.
15 This fixes (mostly) bug #947 ' Maximum Volume Jobs = 1 produces
16 fatal error with multiple jobs running'
17 kes Add more debug code in reservation system.
18 kes Implement maxvol-test to check bug #947.
20 kes Add code to handle tray monitor separated from Win32 FD.
21 kes Fix display of Win32 tray monitor after reboot. Fixes bug #952.
23 kes Add missed return in fixing verify bug -- trunk only.
24 ebl Fix a command parser issue causing a director segfault.
25 kes Fix ANSI tape labeling. Fix restoring ANSI labeled Volumes.
27 kes Increase the max block size to 4MB fixes bug #957.
28 kes ERABT if user sets min block size > max block size. Fixes bug #956.
29 kes Apply 2.2.4-poll-mount fix, that resolves bug #908 where a tape
30 is not properly mounted (recognized) during a poll.
31 kes Apply 2.2.4-verify patch that resolves bug #958. A Verify catalog
32 Job that has differences reports Verify OK.
33 ebl Fixes #955 bug seg fault in Dir introduced with regexwhere relocation.
35 ebl Add an option to operate on all pools with update vol parameters.
36 This complete the project 20. Patch from Nigel Stepp.
37 ebl Add history support to bconsole when using readline.
38 Using Ctrl-D to exit doesn't update .bconsole_history
39 kes Modify new volume algorithm to use max MediaId for generating next
40 volume number rather than the count of Volumes. This should essentially
41 eliminate the failure rate if some volumes were deleted. Bug #921.
42 kes Begin implemention of Optimize Job Scheduling.
43 kes Implement restore callback that Dirk and I agreed on for bat
44 restore. This fixes bug #928. Restore of backup of zero files fails.
45 kes Fix SQL Catalog logging which broke with new db_escape_string
48 kes Fix bacula_cats.def for new db_escape_string().
49 kes Increase size of name string when FD making connection to SD.
50 May fix bug #953. FD->SD connection failure.
52 kes Add code to help Dan debug 2drive-incremental-2disk test.
53 kes Add code to try to fix bug #908.
54 kes Add waits to multiple exit detection code to try to force pid
55 file to always be deleted.
56 kes Restore good dev.tar.gz to rescue set appropriate binary property.
58 kes Fix seg fault in error exit of acquire_for_read after unsuccessfully
59 trying to switch drives by checking for blocking before unblocking.
61 kes Cancel storage daemon in all cases where FD reports error. This
62 should fix virtually all cases of bug #920.
63 kes Fix db_escape_string() for MySQL which did not compile.
65 kes Fix error message that was clobbered when Dir tells SD it does not
66 have write permission on Volume. This should fix a minor point
67 in bug #942, but not the main problem.
68 kes Add code to cancel job in SD if FD connection fails. This should
70 kes Add code in FD exit to prevent loops and a crash on FreeBSD.
71 dvl Pass jcr and db into db_escape_string() to enable better escaping
73 kes Fix migration code to get correct Volume name with multiple volumes
74 by skipping |. Fixes bug #936.
75 kes Implement patch supplied by Landon to fix bug #944 where using
76 TLS with bconsole uses 99+% of the CPU.
77 kes Note, you need GTK >= 2.10 to be able to link the Tray Monitor
79 kes Move patches into patches directory.
81 ebl Fix bug #946 about "bacula-dir -t" which doesn't works
84 ebl Using "m" in bconsole will show messages like before,

140 kes Fix (hopefully) bug #930 by doing a db_escape_string() on file
141 and directory names during restore of single file/directories.
142 kes Add sanity checks to .sql command when string is empty. Hopefully
143 that will resolve Dirks Director crash.

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

298 kes Rework the prune_volumes() subroutine so that after purging and
299 no volume found in desired pool, it will check for a scratch
300 volume. This prevents recycling the whole scratch pool.
301 kes Add code to status storage to print boffset_t (largefile support).
303 kes Move qwt (Graphics libarary for Qt4) to depkgs.
304 kes You now need a --with-qwt=<dir> to be able to build bat.

334 kes Implement new BST_DESPOOLING blocked state. Change from locking
335 during despooling in SD to blocking. This means that other threads
336 can work with the device structure, in particular the reservations
337 system while despooling.
339 kes Fix return in reservation message queue that missed clearing
340 the jcr lock (implemented 26Jun07 below).

362 spurious line drops when using TLS.
363 kes Do not file reparse points when restoring a file that already
366 kes Implement Windows reparse points -- similar to directories, but
367 we do not descend into it. This is a first cut. They seem to
368 be backed up, but restore is not yet tested.
369 kes Remove restore_blocking in tls code when shutting a socket to leave
370 it in blocking mode. Hopefully this will fix the encryption bug
371 reported by Frank Sweetser.
372 kes When opening a file for backup, tell the OS that we are going to
373 read it sequentially -- optimization.

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

424 Make sure that valid JobMedia records are written for disk files.
425 Previously they were completely wrong.

440 place of the old bnet_xxx code.
441 kes Implement code that does an on the fly calculation of the
442 signing digest during restore of encrypted files. It makes
443 a best guess at the algorithm, and if it is not correct, will
444 then revert to the old code which reads the file after it is
446 kes Implement at least one missing crypto stream in stream_to_ascii()
447 kes Apply patch from William <chowmeined@gmail.com> that fixes bug
448 #877 where a reload with bad syntax causes Dir to exit.
450 Cut: 2.1.14 beta (not released)
452 kes Do not free a volume on a tape drive until another volume is
453 mounted and read, or the autochanger unloads the volume.
454 This should help the SD re-use volumes that are already mounted,
455 and should fix bug #886.
456 kes Apply patch from user brettedgar that allows gnome2-console include
457 the OpenSSL libraries, and hence work with SSL. Fixes bug #885.

506 Prefer Mounted Volumes = no.
507 kes Fix a Bacula PostgreSQL bug dereferencing a NULL pointer
508 returned from a query.

789 The ability for the director to validate a Client (FD) CN against
790 an arbitrary set of patterns rather than the hostname, with
791 A new 'TLS Allowed CN' set of directives which are implemented

837 ebl Check size and age of each file after its backup to see if
838 it has changed during backup, if 'checkfilechanges' is set.
839 The FD will do an extra check (stat(2)) after
840 each file backup. mtime, ctime and size are compared with
841 'before backup' information. If time or size mismatch, an
842 error message will be generated. You must upgrade FD to use it.

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

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

1006 RecyclePool = Scratch
1010 kes Expand new BSOCK class adding signal() and new BNET signals.
1011 kes Begin enhancing the dot commands adding a new API function
1012 that returns more information and will make it easier
1013 to interface to the Director from a program.
1015 kes Make DEVICE fd private. Its new name is m_fd, and can be
1016 obtained with dev->fd() outside the class. This is the
1017 first of many DEVICE members to be made private.
1018 kes Implement Michael Renner's idea on having a virtual disk
1019 changer. I made some minor modifications (e.g. I did not
1020 implement the Virtual Changer directive, but simply set
1021 the Changer Command to an empty string.
1023 kes Implement a BSOCK send() method that writes the whole record
1024 in a single write() request rather than in two.
1025 ebl add update volume=xxx recyclepool=yyyy
1026 volume takes recyclepool from pool when using update volume=xxx from pool

1042 in the case of orphaned records.
1043 kes Modify dbcheck to handle orphaned JobMedia, Path, Filename,
1044 and File records in 300K chunks to be more efficient. This
1045 idea came from Juan Luis Frances (if I remember right).
1046 kes Apply Eric's scratch patch that moves a purged Volume to
1047 the RecyclePool. Question: how is RecyclePool set? what
1048 happens to the ScratchPool?
1049 kes Apply Eric's media patch that collects read/write media
1050 times as well as byte counts. This patch requires a
1051 simultaneous upgrade of the DIR and SD. Note, there
1052 should be some way to turn off timing. I'm not sure
1053 times are in Bacula units.
1054 kes Apply Eric's batch-insert patch.
1056 kes Update projects list.
1058 kes Implement Include/Exclude file lists in FD as dlists using
1059 the new dlistString class. This permits efficiently having
1060 large include/exclude lists and completes project Item 25.

1062 console is authorized to cancel the job. This fixes bug
1064 kes Modify SD so that the VolCatJobs medium record is updated
1065 at the beginning of a Job rather than the end. This
1066 fixes bug #775 where exceeding MaxVolJobs caused jobs
1068 kes Added a mutex around getting and setting Volume information
1069 so that multiple simultaneous jobs will single thread.
1071 Switch to using Subversion
1072 kes Remove src/pygtk-console/ from configure
1074 kes Delete src/lib/btree.c from win32 build, then add rblist.c
1075 plus the entrypoints.
1076 kes Apply patch supplied that corrects debug print
1077 in canceling jobs for max run time. Supplied as
1078 part of bug #621, which was previously fixed.
1080 kes Test on job_canceled() and sd_msg_thread_done inside
1081 loop starting the message thread to avoid a race condition.
1083 kes Remove rl_catch_signal from console.c as it conflicted
1084 with the header definition. Fixes bug #765.
1085 ebl Fixes bug #766 about RunsOnClient = Yes (case sensitive)
1087 kes Clarify some stored/acquire messages to indicate if the
1088 problem is with read or append.
1090 kes Fix memory leak with storage ids in cats/sql_get.c
1091 kes Terminate watchdog earlier to avoid reference to released
1092 memory -- reported by Jason Austin.
1093 kes Move closing the database from jobq.c to the director daemon
1094 termination routine. This fixes memory leaks for shadow jobs
1095 (i.e. migration jobs).
1096 kes Free up the unique jobid chain items in migrate.c. This fixes
1097 a memory leak problem.
1098 kes Convert some ugly looking for statements to use foreach_alist
1099 in findlib/find.c. This will facilitate converting the structures
1100 to use dlist (for large include/exclude lists).
1101 kes Fix a bug in the btree.c and btree.h routines, then rename them
1102 rblist and add them to be built in src/lib. Include some new
1103 methods written by Rudolf Cejka that make the code more readable
1104 (hides some of the ugly casting).
1105 kes Add set_next() and set_prev() methods which make the code much more
1106 readable. Also add a new dlistString class that facilitates storing
1107 strings in dlists. To be used in the large include/exclude lists.
1108 kes Make some trivial modifications to lib/tree.h that use rblist
1109 rather than dlist for storing the tree links. This was suggested
1110 by Rudolf Cejka. The result of this is that the restore tree now
1111 uses red-black binary trees rather than simple linked lists. This
1112 should give rather dramatic speed improvements for directories
1113 contining large numbers of directories/files (more than 10000).
1115 kes Fix maxruntime bug #621.
1117 ebl Implement the include JobID in spool file name project.
