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

373 place of the old bnet_xxx code.
374 kes Implement code that does an on the fly calculation of the
375 signing digest during restore of encrypted files. It makes
376 a best guess at the algorithm, and if it is not correct, will
377 then revert to the old code which reads the file after it is
379 kes Implement at least one missing crypto stream in stream_to_ascii()
380 kes Apply patch from William <chowmeined@gmail.com> that fixes bug

383 Cut: 2.1.14 beta (not released)
385 kes Do not free a volume on a tape drive until another volume is
386 mounted and read, or the autochanger unloads the volume.
387 This should help the SD re-use volumes that are already mounted,
388 and should fix bug #886.
389 kes Apply patch from user brettedgar that allows gnome2-console include
390 the OpenSSL libraries, and hence work with SSL. Fixes bug #885.

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

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

819 to pass a list of JobIds to be deleted to SQL. Also, minimize the
820 amount of duplicated code.

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

927 trunk/bacula/patches/testing/clientrunbeforejob_can_generate_include_exclude_list.patch
929 kes Restore of sockets created false error messages because Bacula
930 no longer restores sockets, but the code was still trying to
931 set the attributes on a non-existent file. Reported by a user.
932 ebl finish RecyclePool feature
933 Media will takes Pool.RecyclePool
934 when moving from Scratch to a Pool or when user will do

939 RecyclePool = Scratch
943 kes Expand new BSOCK class adding signal() and new BNET signals.
944 kes Begin enhancing the dot commands adding a new API function
945 that returns more information and will make it easier
946 to interface to the Director from a program.
948 kes Make DEVICE fd private. Its new name is m_fd, and can be
949 obtained with dev->fd() outside the class. This is the
950 first of many DEVICE members to be made private.
951 kes Implement Michael Renner's idea on having a virtual disk
952 changer. I made some minor modifications (e.g. I did not
953 implement the Virtual Changer directive, but simply set
954 the Changer Command to an empty string.
956 kes Implement a BSOCK send() method that writes the whole record
957 in a single write() request rather than in two.
958 ebl add update volume=xxx recyclepool=yyyy
959 volume takes recyclepool from pool when using update volume=xxx from pool

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

995 console is authorized to cancel the job. This fixes bug
997 kes Modify SD so that the VolCatJobs medium record is updated
998 at the beginning of a Job rather than the end. This
999 fixes bug #775 where exceeding MaxVolJobs caused jobs
1001 kes Added a mutex around getting and setting Volume information
1002 so that multiple simultaneous jobs will single thread.
1004 Switch to using Subversion
1005 kes Remove src/pygtk-console/ from configure
1007 kes Delete src/lib/btree.c from win32 build, then add rblist.c
1008 plus the entrypoints.
1009 kes Apply patch supplied that corrects debug print
1010 in canceling jobs for max run time. Supplied as
1011 part of bug #621, which was previously fixed.
1013 kes Test on job_canceled() and sd_msg_thread_done inside
1014 loop starting the message thread to avoid a race condition.
1016 kes Remove rl_catch_signal from console.c as it conflicted
1017 with the header definition. Fixes bug #765.
1018 ebl Fixes bug #766 about RunsOnClient = Yes (case sensitive)
1020 kes Clarify some stored/acquire messages to indicate if the
1021 problem is with read or append.
1023 kes Fix memory leak with storage ids in cats/sql_get.c
1024 kes Terminate watchdog earlier to avoid reference to released
1025 memory -- reported by Jason Austin.
1026 kes Move closing the database from jobq.c to the director daemon
1027 termination routine. This fixes memory leaks for shadow jobs
1028 (i.e. migration jobs).
1029 kes Free up the unique jobid chain items in migrate.c. This fixes
1030 a memory leak problem.
1031 kes Convert some ugly looking for statements to use foreach_alist
1032 in findlib/find.c. This will facilitate converting the structures
1033 to use dlist (for large include/exclude lists).
1034 kes Fix a bug in the btree.c and btree.h routines, then rename them
1035 rblist and add them to be built in src/lib. Include some new
1036 methods written by Rudolf Cejka that make the code more readable
1037 (hides some of the ugly casting).
1038 kes Add set_next() and set_prev() methods which make the code much more
1039 readable. Also add a new dlistString class that facilitates storing
1040 strings in dlists. To be used in the large include/exclude lists.
1041 kes Make some trivial modifications to lib/tree.h that use rblist
1042 rather than dlist for storing the tree links. This was suggested
1043 by Rudolf Cejka. The result of this is that the restore tree now
1044 uses red-black binary trees rather than simple linked lists. This
1045 should give rather dramatic speed improvements for directories
1046 contining large numbers of directories/files (more than 10000).
1048 kes Fix maxruntime bug #621.
1050 ebl Implement the include JobID in spool file name project.
