1 Technical notes on version 2.3
5 kes Modify new volume algorithm to use max MediaId for generating next
6 volume number rather than the count of Volumes. This should essentially
7 eliminate the failure rate if some volumes were deleted. Bug #921.
8 kes Begin implemention of Optimize Job Scheduling.
9 kes Implement restore callback that Dirk and I agreed on for bat
10 restore. This fixes bug #928. Restore of backup of zero files fails.
11 kes Fix SQL Catalog logging which broke with new db_escape_string

32 have write permission on Volume. This should fix a minor point
33 in bug #942, but not the main problem.

328 spurious line drops when using TLS.
329 kes Do not file reparse points when restoring a file that already
332 kes Implement Windows reparse points -- similar to directories, but
333 we do not descend into it. This is a first cut. They seem to
334 be backed up, but restore is not yet tested.
335 kes Remove restore_blocking in tls code when shutting a socket to leave
336 it in blocking mode. Hopefully this will fix the encryption bug
337 reported by Frank Sweetser.
338 kes When opening a file for backup, tell the OS that we are going to
339 read it sequentially -- optimization.

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

406 place of the old bnet_xxx code.
407 kes Implement code that does an on the fly calculation of the
408 signing digest during restore of encrypted files. It makes
409 a best guess at the algorithm, and if it is not correct, will
410 then revert to the old code which reads the file after it is
412 kes Implement at least one missing crypto stream in stream_to_ascii()
413 kes Apply patch from William <chowmeined@gmail.com> that fixes bug
414 #877 where a reload with bad syntax causes Dir to exit.
416 Cut: 2.1.14 beta (not released)
418 kes Do not free a volume on a tape drive until another volume is
419 mounted and read, or the autochanger unloads the volume.
420 This should help the SD re-use volumes that are already mounted,
421 and should fix bug #886.
422 kes Apply patch from user brettedgar that allows gnome2-console include
423 the OpenSSL libraries, and hence work with SSL. Fixes bug #885.

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

472 Prefer Mounted Volumes = no.
473 kes Fix a Bacula PostgreSQL bug dereferencing a NULL pointer
474 returned from a query.
475 kes Make volume lock recursive.

753 <jorj@seas.upenn.edu> was committed by Landon (with my approval).
755 The ability for the director to validate a Client (FD) CN against
756 an arbitrary set of patterns rather than the hostname, with
757 A new 'TLS Allowed CN' set of directives which are implemented
758 in the Client resource. Then pattern matching is used in place

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

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

895 running rather than at schedule time (as it was in 1.38.x).
896 kes Fix src/job.c to handle MaxWaitTime correctly. This should
898 kes When checking pid in pid file, continue running if the pid is

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

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

960 trunk/bacula/patches/testing/clientrunbeforejob_can_generate_include_exclude_list.patch
962 kes Restore of sockets created false error messages because Bacula
963 no longer restores sockets, but the code was still trying to
964 set the attributes on a non-existent file. Reported by a user.
965 ebl finish RecyclePool feature
966 Media will takes Pool.RecyclePool
967 when moving from Scratch to a Pool or when user will do

972 RecyclePool = Scratch
976 kes Expand new BSOCK class adding signal() and new BNET signals.
977 kes Begin enhancing the dot commands adding a new API function
978 that returns more information and will make it easier
979 to interface to the Director from a program.
981 kes Make DEVICE fd private. Its new name is m_fd, and can be
982 obtained with dev->fd() outside the class. This is the
983 first of many DEVICE members to be made private.
984 kes Implement Michael Renner's idea on having a virtual disk
985 changer. I made some minor modifications (e.g. I did not
986 implement the Virtual Changer directive, but simply set
987 the Changer Command to an empty string.
989 kes Implement a BSOCK send() method that writes the whole record
990 in a single write() request rather than in two.
991 ebl add update volume=xxx recyclepool=yyyy
992 volume takes recyclepool from pool when using update volume=xxx from pool
994 kes Fix encryption deblocking bug, which caused some restored files

1007 kes Apply patch from bug #612 by Rudolf Cejka to speedup pruning
1008 in the case of orphaned records.
1009 kes Modify dbcheck to handle orphaned JobMedia, Path, Filename,
1010 and File records in 300K chunks to be more efficient. This
1011 idea came from Juan Luis Frances (if I remember right).
1012 kes Apply Eric's scratch patch that moves a purged Volume to
1013 the RecyclePool. Question: how is RecyclePool set? what
1014 happens to the ScratchPool?
1015 kes Apply Eric's media patch that collects read/write media
1016 times as well as byte counts. This patch requires a
1017 simultaneous upgrade of the DIR and SD. Note, there
1018 should be some way to turn off timing. I'm not sure
1019 times are in Bacula units.
1020 kes Apply Eric's batch-insert patch.
1022 kes Update projects list.
1024 kes Implement Include/Exclude file lists in FD as dlists using
1025 the new dlistString class. This permits efficiently having
1026 large include/exclude lists and completes project Item 25.

1028 console is authorized to cancel the job. This fixes bug
1030 kes Modify SD so that the VolCatJobs medium record is updated
1031 at the beginning of a Job rather than the end. This
1032 fixes bug #775 where exceeding MaxVolJobs caused jobs
1034 kes Added a mutex around getting and setting Volume information
1035 so that multiple simultaneous jobs will single thread.
1037 Switch to using Subversion
1038 kes Remove src/pygtk-console/ from configure
1040 kes Delete src/lib/btree.c from win32 build, then add rblist.c
1041 plus the entrypoints.
1042 kes Apply patch supplied that corrects debug print
1043 in canceling jobs for max run time. Supplied as
1044 part of bug #621, which was previously fixed.
1046 kes Test on job_canceled() and sd_msg_thread_done inside
1047 loop starting the message thread to avoid a race condition.
1049 kes Remove rl_catch_signal from console.c as it conflicted
1050 with the header definition. Fixes bug #765.
1051 ebl Fixes bug #766 about RunsOnClient = Yes (case sensitive)
1053 kes Clarify some stored/acquire messages to indicate if the
1054 problem is with read or append.
1056 kes Fix memory leak with storage ids in cats/sql_get.c
1057 kes Terminate watchdog earlier to avoid reference to released
1058 memory -- reported by Jason Austin.
1059 kes Move closing the database from jobq.c to the director daemon
1060 termination routine. This fixes memory leaks for shadow jobs
1061 (i.e. migration jobs).
1062 kes Free up the unique jobid chain items in migrate.c. This fixes
1063 a memory leak problem.
1064 kes Convert some ugly looking for statements to use foreach_alist
1065 in findlib/find.c. This will facilitate converting the structures
1066 to use dlist (for large include/exclude lists).
1067 kes Fix a bug in the btree.c and btree.h routines, then rename them
1068 rblist and add them to be built in src/lib. Include some new
1069 methods written by Rudolf Cejka that make the code more readable
1070 (hides some of the ugly casting).
1071 kes Add set_next() and set_prev() methods which make the code much more
1072 readable. Also add a new dlistString class that facilitates storing
1073 strings in dlists. To be used in the large include/exclude lists.
1074 kes Make some trivial modifications to lib/tree.h that use rblist
1075 rather than dlist for storing the tree links. This was suggested
1076 by Rudolf Cejka. The result of this is that the restore tree now
1077 uses red-black binary trees rather than simple linked lists. This
1078 should give rather dramatic speed improvements for directories
1079 contining large numbers of directories/files (more than 10000).
1081 kes Fix maxruntime bug #621.
1083 ebl Implement the include JobID in spool file name project.

1121 kes Modify USTORE constructor to set an empty store_source string,
1122 and don't copy the store_source string in a cancel. Hopefully
1123 this will fix Arno's seg fault, bug #744.
1124 kes Add back code to disable conio in configure. Fixes bug #743.
1125 kes Correct the Options scanner in the FD to correctly handle
1126 SHA1 option, which was eating the next option. Reported by
