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

336 kes Tweak debug code in autochanger reservation.
338 kes Add some additional locking in the cats directory in subroutines
339 that modify packet variables called from batch insert.

343 devices, and will permit easy device changes.
344 kes A bunch of changes all over to handle new new_dcr() calling
346 kes Work more on the Volume management in the SD. Remember Volumes
347 for tape drives and for autochangers (even virtual disk changers).

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

393 kes Unable to reproduce bug 872. However added additional testing for
395 kes Bug #874 resolved by documenting SQLite limitations.
396 kes Bug #882 resolved by documenting mtx-changer script for new drive code.
397 kes Bug #881 resolved by removing typo in mtx-changer script.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

991 console is authorized to cancel the job. This fixes bug
993 kes Modify SD so that the VolCatJobs medium record is updated
994 at the beginning of a Job rather than the end. This
995 fixes bug #775 where exceeding MaxVolJobs caused jobs
997 kes Added a mutex around getting and setting Volume information
998 so that multiple simultaneous jobs will single thread.
1000 Switch to using Subversion
1001 kes Remove src/pygtk-console/ from configure
1003 kes Delete src/lib/btree.c from win32 build, then add rblist.c
1004 plus the entrypoints.
1005 kes Apply patch supplied that corrects debug print
1006 in canceling jobs for max run time. Supplied as
1007 part of bug #621, which was previously fixed.
1009 kes Test on job_canceled() and sd_msg_thread_done inside
1010 loop starting the message thread to avoid a race condition.
1012 kes Remove rl_catch_signal from console.c as it conflicted
1013 with the header definition. Fixes bug #765.
1014 ebl Fixes bug #766 about RunsOnClient = Yes (case sensitive)
1016 kes Clarify some stored/acquire messages to indicate if the
1017 problem is with read or append.
1019 kes Fix memory leak with storage ids in cats/sql_get.c
1020 kes Terminate watchdog earlier to avoid reference to released
1021 memory -- reported by Jason Austin.
1022 kes Move closing the database from jobq.c to the director daemon
1023 termination routine. This fixes memory leaks for shadow jobs
1024 (i.e. migration jobs).
1025 kes Free up the unique jobid chain items in migrate.c. This fixes
1026 a memory leak problem.
1027 kes Convert some ugly looking for statements to use foreach_alist
1028 in findlib/find.c. This will facilitate converting the structures
1029 to use dlist (for large include/exclude lists).
1030 kes Fix a bug in the btree.c and btree.h routines, then rename them
1031 rblist and add them to be built in src/lib. Include some new
1032 methods written by Rudolf Cejka that make the code more readable
1033 (hides some of the ugly casting).
1034 kes Add set_next() and set_prev() methods which make the code much more
1035 readable. Also add a new dlistString class that facilitates storing
1036 strings in dlists. To be used in the large include/exclude lists.
1037 kes Make some trivial modifications to lib/tree.h that use rblist
1038 rather than dlist for storing the tree links. This was suggested
1039 by Rudolf Cejka. The result of this is that the restore tree now
1040 uses red-black binary trees rather than simple linked lists. This
1041 should give rather dramatic speed improvements for directories
1042 contining large numbers of directories/files (more than 10000).
1044 kes Fix maxruntime bug #621.
1046 ebl Implement the include JobID in spool file name project.
