1 Technical notes on version 2.4
5 kes Fix orphaned jobs (possible deadlock) while pruning.
7 ebl Backport of the btraceback script that keeps trace file on working dir
9 kes Migrate DB Log records too. This fixes last part of bug #1171.
11 kes Modify SQL so that jobs that failed will not be migrated.
12 kes Correct bug where long retention periods caused immediate
17 ebl Apply 2.4.3-update-slots.patch to fix #1175. About update slots
18 that don't reset InChanger flag when slot is empty.
20 ebl Apply 2.4.2-cancel-non-running-jobs.patch to be able to cancel
21 a non created job faster.
23 kes This should correct bug #1159 where Migration does not properly
24 respect the Migration Low Bytes directive.
26 ebl Fix typo in configure.in that breaks --with-db-password option
28 kes This code should fix the race condition that leads to a Director
29 crash at job end time when the job list is updated. This was reported
32 kes Remove all double quotes from SQLite creating script and
33 replace by single quotes as suggested by John Huttley.
35 kes Fix SQL case problem that may cause the failure of DiskToCatalog
37 kes Copy missing storage name into edit buffer. As far as I can tell
38 this never caused a bug.
40 ebl Remove catalog dependency for bcopy
41 ebl Modify catalog scripts to have an easier packaging integration,
42 using default variables.
43 Make difference between SQLite3 and SQLite in db_get_type()
45 kes Attempt to fix bug #1128 InChanger flag cleared during Migration
46 job when reading from one autochanger and writing to another.
48 kes Add more information to SD acquire.c INFO messages.
49 kes Fix NULL Volume name error when reading and the drive must
52 kes Fix a Verify InitCatalog problem where in certain cases
53 a garbage filename may be entered in the verification database. This
55 kes Add space after version before date in bat about dialog.
57 kes Fix seg fault in Dir during estimate command with no level value
58 given. This fixes bug #1140.
60 kes Add message to migration job when the target job is already migrated.
61 This closes bug #1129.
65 kes When a migration job actually runs, re-check the Job record
66 and skip if the job is already migrated. This should
67 significantly reduce the problems with bug #1129.
69 kes Break the do_swapping into do_unload, do_swapping, and
70 do_load. It is much more logical that way.
71 kes Implement a set_dcr_from_vol subroutine in acquire.c for
72 reading volumes. This allows the dcr to be refreshed after being
73 zapped when the wrong volume is mounted.
74 This should fix bug #1126 -- During multiple tape restore, Bacula
75 does not ask for physical tape change, but rereads same tape
77 kes Apply patch submitted for bug #1107 with a small modification.
78 This fixes a bug where bcopy copied too many records.
79 kes Make some tweaks to bsmtp based on patch submitted in bug #1124.
81 kes Make the default bat restore Pool be Any. This fixes bug #1118.
84 kes Fix bug #1125 which reports a SD crash at the end of a tape
85 during restore. It was a debug statement that should not be
88 ebl fix #1034 by setting big timeout on mysql connections
90 kes Do partial integration of the Win32 bat build created by Eric.
91 kes Fix bat not to block.
93 kes Ensure that SD tried to mount a volume not in an autochanger
94 at least once before asking for operator intervention.
95 kes Fix a pthreads bug in the Win32 pthreads emulation code.
99 kes Clear in-use bit on vol when unused while swapping.
101 kes Remove sleep at end of ./bacula
102 kes Clear hash packet for hardlinked files correctly. This corrects
103 a long standing bug where hardlinked files selected individually
104 would occasionally not be restored.
106 kes Apply Eric's patch to ensure that autoprune does not return
107 a Volume not in the autochanger unless requested to do so.
108 kes Correct bat restore display of multiple drives. This fixes
110 kes Do find_a_volume() each time an unload is done. This
111 fixes the failure of maxvol2-test.
113 Release Beta version 2.4.1-b2
115 kes Use Qmsg() in job.c watchdog callback.
117 kes Release main control rwlock if ABORTing.
118 kes Make watchdog connect timeout queue messages rather than sending
119 directly to avoid lock conflicts with the real thread.
120 kes Remove const char that causes problems with Python, which has
121 older 'incorrect' headers.
122 kes Add const char in dbd.c to avoid compiler warnings.
124 kes Fix mtx-changer to detect both versions of Ubuntu (Debian)
125 mt. This fixes bug #1116.
126 kes Fix failure of 2drive-concurrent-test. Always read label;
127 clear_unload() only after drive is defined in acquire_for_read().
129 Release Beta version 2.4.1-b1
131 kes Back out bad src/lib/base64.c change.
133 kes Generally clean up the manual tape loading code. The main
134 conceptual change is that when a volume is marked to be unloaded,
135 its volume name is retained, and it is only marked as unloaded
136 when either the autoloader says it is unloaded or another tape
137 is read on that drive.
139 kes Fix a recycling problem with two autochangers reported in bug
140 #1106. This may also (unlikely) fix a second recycling bug as
142 kes Fix a SD lock volumes deadlock problem reported in bug #1100.
144 kes Fix format problem in bscan output reported in bug #1105.
146 kes Copy more data when restarting a job so that run
147 overrides are kept. This should fix bug #1094.
148 kes Backport updates to jobq.c where possible.
150 kes Fix bug where SD did not ask operator if the device could not
151 be opened. Reported by Eric.
153 kes Add dbuser to DIR conf file (replaces user).
154 kes Add --with-db-password to ./configure
155 kes Fix regress to handle db_password.
156 kes Fix a couple of pedantic compiler warnings.
157 ebl Fix bug when starting a restore on a storage that doesn't
158 have the requested MediaType.
160 kes More work on word alignments -- eliminate all ints from
161 the configuration routines.
163 kes Fix bug reported by Scott Barninger where the bacula script
164 refers to scripts in the wrong directory. Needed to meet the
165 requirements of recent FHS location changes.
166 kes Fix word alignment problem on non-Intel 64 bit machines
167 such as Solaris. This should fix bug #1097 -- bus error in SD.
169 kes Add missing win32/patches/wxWidgets.patch to 2.4 repository.
171 Release Version 2.4.0
173 kes Update version to reflect the magnitude of the SD changes.
175 kes Make sure to clear JS_WaitMedia when operator mounts a Volume.
176 This fixes bug #1095.
178 kes Add create_postgresql_database.sql to Win32 installer. Should
179 fix problem reported by Juilio Monteiro.
180 kes Get correct slot when auto unloading a device. This fixes bug
183 kes Fix multiple media restore.
184 kes Make DEVICE Slot private and access it via a method.
185 Allows better control over when it is set and cleared.
186 kes Fix possible seg fault if SQL error.
188 kes Add debug code to SD.
189 kes Fix renaming a Volume, which used the wrong Volume name.
191 kes If operator has rewind tape, print warning, release tape and
192 try once more. If tape is positioned somewhere, something went
193 wrong, so mark the tape in error and try once more. Previously
194 this error was fatal, now it produces an error message.
195 kes Ensure correct volume name displayed during restore
196 kes Ensure that Volume is mounted for restore.
198 kes Fix a few more Coverity reported problems.
200 Beta Release Version 2.2.10-b4
202 kes Enhance a couple of SD debug messages.
203 kes Tweak unload flag setting and ensure it is set during swap.
205 ebl Fix #1091 about bad output in estimate command.
207 kes Modify autochanger locking to attempt to avoid race
209 kes Make sure device not busy before doing label command.
210 kes Display open() errors except when polling. Previously too
211 many were suppressed. This should fix bug #1070.
212 kes Fix Win32 reparse points. Bacula will not recurse into any
213 reparse point directory, including mount points, unless the
214 directory is explicitly mentioned at the top level (same as
215 with Unix). A file that is linked to another file will be
216 backed up -- much as Unix does for hardlinked files.
217 This fixes bug #1041.
219 kes Remove double quotes from ChangeLog and ReleaseNotes
220 kes Remove StorageId test when pruning and recycling (Eric's changes).
221 kes Remove old form of locking when getting volumes -- causes deadlock.
223 kes Fix buffer overruns detected by Coverity.
225 Beta Release Version 2.2.10-b3
227 kes Tweak joblog display.
229 kes Implement --without-qwt
230 kes Fix layout of restore tree dialog
231 kes Add configure bat QWT libraries, so that bat can be built
232 with or without the QWT libaries.
234 kes Apply batfix bat cleanup patch from Riccardo.
235 kes Make sure we unload the right slot when swapping.
237 kes Improve SD reserve debug code.
238 kes Testing an improvement to free up volumes no longer in use.
240 Beta Release Version 2.2.10-b2
243 kes Rework SD acquire for read to handle autochanger Volume
245 kes Implement regression that explicitly tests swapping a Volume
246 from one drive to another.
247 kes Enhance disk-changer to detect most error conditions.
248 kes Fix SD code so that it properly swaps a Volume between drives.
249 This fixes bug #1083.
251 kes Prevent a Volume that is being swapped from being freed from
252 the volume list. This will most likely fix, at least partially,
254 kes Fix strippath so that it does not get a buffer overrun and crash FD.
255 This fixes bug #1078.
256 kes Make inability to change owner/group when creating a dir only a
257 warning rather than an error.
259 ebl Fix SQL query in migration code
261 kes Force unload of volume when wrong volume mounted in SD.
263 kes Fix bat seg fault at termination.
264 kes Add Bacula generated version to bat about box.
266 Beta Release Version 2.2.10-b1
268 kes Permit multiple simultaneous restores -- experiment.
270 kes Backport development stream SD reservation system changes.
273 kes Move final volume swapping code to DCR method and
274 call it from acquire_for_read().
275 kes When wrong volume is mounted during read, unload_autochanger.
277 kes Stop searching for Volumes in SD askdir if DIR returns the
278 same volume name twice in a row.
280 kes Tweak the swap Volume from one drive to another code so that
281 it now seems to work.
282 kes Resolve several problems with recycling that broke the new
283 code (these problems are in 2.2.9 as well).
284 kes Remove the volume lock when calling the sysop code.
285 kes Don't mark a reserved volume with no writers as unused otherwise
288 kes Rework class structures for VOLRES, DCR, and DEVICE to make
289 the method names a bit more logical, and for more logically
290 handling the responsibilities.
292 kes Remove redundant code in terminating the scheduler that just
293 causes a seg fault in many cases.
294 kes Cleanup releasing a volume and make it a DCR method.
295 kes Improve algorithm for detecting pre-reserved volume and
298 kes Tweak volume swapping code so it works.
299 kes Correct name overloading in mount.c
300 kes Replace released flag in VOLRES with reserved and add access
301 methods for the VOLRES class.
302 kes Prevent volume from being released while being swapped.
303 kes Refactor parts of stored/mount.c
305 ebl Add sanity checks for VolWriteTime and VolReadTime
306 ebl Take care of bad clock changes while computing VolWriteTime
307 and VolReadTime. This should fix or limit #1066
308 kes Correct error string numbers in dird/catreq.c
309 kes Restructure reserving, acquiring, and mounting volumes. Calls to
310 autochanger are deferred for mount.c -- simplifes the code.
312 kes Do not prune any running job. It just fails the job.
313 kes Lock the volumes when changing dev->reserved_device and marking
314 the volume unused otherwise the device can get reserved by
315 another job before the volume is released, thus blocking it.
318 Beta Release Version 2.2.9-b7
320 kes Close bat console windows first to eliminate error message
322 kes Remove useless code in Scheduler that causes seg fault on
324 kes Correct some SD catalog request error messages.
325 kes Don't allow pruning of any running job.
326 kes Turn off code in read_record that causes a seg fault in the SD
327 when reading past an EOS_LABEL.
328 kes Turn off unloading the autochanger in reserve.c as it just
330 kes Lock volumes when unreserving a device.
331 kes Do not mark volume unused when recycling.
332 kes When acquiring, don't mark volume unused if it is reserved (busy).
334 Beta Release Version 2.2.9-b6
336 kes Eliminate ./configure warning on po directory
337 kes Fix bug #1063, reuse of freed ptr in list nextvol.
338 kes Release regex compile buffer in filed/job.c
339 kes Add proper type of const char in sql_create.c
340 kes Turn off debug in daemon termination routines
341 kes Move free_volume_list() before devices are freed in stored.c
342 kes Fix reference to uninitalized stack variables in bregex.c.

347 kes Apply patch from bug #1069 that corrects spurious error messages
348 when ACLs enabled on SGI but no ACL exists.
349 ebl Fix a storage deamon segfault at debug level 500.
351 Beta Release Version 2.2.9-b5 -- not released
353 Beta Release Version 2.2.9-b4
355 kes Re-enable code to remember last volume mounted on a non-tape
357 kes Add patch supplied in bug #1068 that fixes a SD crash when using
358 a Virtual autochanger.
359 kes Generate correct JobMedia records during spooling/despooling when
360 running concurrent jobs. Thanks to Tom Ivar Helbekkmo
361 <tih@hamartun.priv.no> for excellent analysis and testing.
363 Beta release Version 2.2.9-b3
365 kes Rework certain SD locking based on gdb tracebacks of deadlocks
366 sent by Eric. This code now uses only the volume_lock() rather
367 than the reservations lock when at EOM and acquiring a new
369 kes Ensure only one exit point in several subroutines.
371 Beta release version 2.2.9-b2
373 kes Fix to initial tape drive open to release the volume name
375 Beta release Version 2.2.9-b1
377 kes Fix to JobMedia fix.
378 kes Fix bug pointed out by Peter Much that causes the StorageId to
379 be updated when reading a tape (during migration, it could have
380 been incorrectly set to the write StorageId).
382 kes Implement autostart scripts for Debian
384 kes Fix mtx-changer.in for broken Debian mt program.
386 kes Massive commit of all fixes and back ports to create 2.2.9
388 kes Apply doc fix from bug #1062.

390 GUI. Fixes bug #1065.
391 kes Update Win32 wxWidgets to latest version.
392 kes Attempt to do correct handling of Win32 mount points. Should
394 kes Fix Win32 FD backup/restore memory leak due to improper termination
395 of BackupRead/Write. This fixes bug# 1038.
396 kes Add const to AIX prototype for initgroups()
398 kes Undo bug #1047 heap overrun fix as it is not correct.
400 kes Fix creating first JobMedia record during Migration to include
401 proper index. This caused slow restores of migrated jobs.
403 kes Fix bug #1047, which had a heap overrun when stripping certain paths,
404 and do not strip paths on symbolic links.
405 kes Set catalog backup database and user name from values specified on
406 the ./configure line.
407 ebl Apply patch to correct bug #1031, about wrong pool source information
410 Release Version 2.2.8
412 kes Apply patch from Martin to correct bug #1040, bscan sets existing
414 kes Fixed important spelling error in doc -- bug #1045.
416 kes Move initialization of read/write res lock earlier in the code.
417 This fixes the crash with a null conf file. This fixes bug
419 kes Redefine CURES in lib/parse_conf to be URES and move it all
420 into lib/parse_conf.c -- this responds to bug #1042, but does
421 not fix it. The fix is not to compile with FORTIFY_SOURCE.
422 kes Backport fix de-referencing a NULL pointer in the scanner from
423 the trunk SVN. I don't think this was reported as a bug.
425 Beta release Version 2.2.8
427 kes Re-enable the new job code editing (%f).
429 kes Fix bsnprintf for float point numbers. I broke recently when
430 parameterizing some variables. This fixes bug #1036.
432 kes Move Heartbeat documentation from Job to Director resource.
433 This fixes bug #1033.
435 kes Fix existing switch drive SD code to call autochanger to release
436 any old volume. This must be done to keep the autochanger from
437 releasing subsequently newly reserved volumes in doing a close().
438 This should possibly fix bugs #1032 and #1018.
439 kes Apply big backport of current SVN SD code that corrects a number
440 of race conditions. This is a first step in fixing bug #1018.
442 ebl Fixes bug #1028 where "Selection Type" option was not usable
446 Release Version 2.2.7
448 kes Partial back out (disabled) %f job code editing because it
449 does not build on Win32.
450 kes Fix seg fault Frank Sweetser reports in regression testing
451 on his systems. The problem was that the original author of
452 bsnprintf.c did not take into account the side effects of
453 using ++x in the argument to a #define.
455 kes Apply patch from Michael Stapelberg <michael@stapelberg.de>
456 that implements double quoting include names in conf files,
457 and also allows piping input by having the first character
458 be a vertical bar (|).
459 kes Apply patch from Bastian Friedrich <bastian.friedrich@collax.com>
460 that implement %f in RunScripts to pass the FileSet name.
461 kes Skip leading | when lex input comes from a pipe as suggested
462 by Michael Stapelberg <michael@stapelberg.de>.
464 kes Apply patch for bsmtp Win32 daylight savings time fix supplied by
465 Nerijus Baliunas <nerijus@users.sourceforge.net>
467 kes This patch corrects a problem where the maximum concurrent storage
468 jobs counter gets out of sync during restore jobs causing jobs to
469 'wait on max Storage jobs'. This patch fixes bug #1009.
471 kes Add new include to postgresql.c suggested by Marc Cousins so
472 that it compiles correctly with pgre version 8.3. Also fix
473 misuse of %x with pointer (should be %p).
475 kes This patch fixes bcopy so that it produces correct Volumes.
477 kes This patch eliminates spurious output to the console during a VerifyVolume
478 job that contains encrypted data. It fixes bug #1024.
480 kes This patch prevents the 'status dir' command from trying to use a scratch
481 volume and possibly moving it from one pool to another. This patch fixes
484 kes Fix --archivedir addition to configure. Replace it with
485 --with-archivedir in configure.in This fixes the regression
487 kes This patch fixes bug #1012 where the job is canceled because
488 of Max Run Time exceeded when the job has not yet started.
490 ebl Apply Richard Mortimer patch that fixes #1016 when there are more than
491 one 'part' to write. Instead of each part being stored on disk,
492 written to DVD, then deleted from disk, all parts are written to disk,
493 and only the last is written and deleted from disk.
495 kes Correct typos in disk-changer.in
497 kes This patch fixes the status command to include the formating string for
498 JS_AttrInserting. It fixes bug #1021.
499 kes This patch should fix the Mac OS X build problem on the latest
500 Darwin, where sys/types.h was not included correctly (apparently
501 due to a change in the Mac headers). The solution was to explicitly
502 ensure that it is defined for the ./configure.
503 This patch also has a rebuild of configure that includes the Debian
504 qt4 patch to check for qmake-qt4. This patch fixes bug #1020.
505 kes This patch should ensure that queued messages to the console are
506 displayed as soon as possible. It should fix bug #1007, but has been
507 reported not to work.
509 kes This patch fixes the infinite loop when trying to increase the
510 maximum number of volumes in a Pool during the add command.
511 This patch fixes bug #1008.
513 Release Version 2.2.6
515 kes Get fix for joblist bug in bat from trunk.
517 kes This patch fixes bug #1003 where putting the message output from
518 a Verify job into the catalog results in a recursive loop. The problem
519 seems to show up only with postgresql (to be verified).
521 kes Fix bug #942 where lots of emails where generated when the heartbeat
522 interval was low and Bacula wanted a different tape from the one in
525 ebl Apply 2.2.5-lastwritten.patch to fix the LastWritten field
526 which was updated during a restore (or a reading migration) bug #982
528 ebl Use qmake-qt4 instead of qmake when available (debian system).
530 kes Add a security warning to src/cats/make_catalog_backup.in indicating
531 that passing the password via the command line (arg 3) is insecure.
532 This responds to bug #990 (it doesn't fix it).
533 kes Apply 2.2.5-postgresql-errors.patch
534 kes Remove unneeded File table index on JobId, which is already
535 present as the first index of another multi-index.
537 kes Set default debug_level to zero. This corrects bugs #991 and #993.
538 kes Fix a crash in bat when it cannot connect to the Director for example
539 if the Director is not running.
541 kes Activate Close button on tray-monitor window. This fixes
544 kes Fix spurious warning message printed when creating a volume with
545 a LabelFormat. This fixes bug #976.
547 Release Version 2.2.5
549 kes Add JobId in place of Job name in all the Jmsg() output.
550 kes Correct the APP_DESC for the Win32 storage service (remove an e).
552 kes Add new SD despooling attributes and Dir inserting attributes
553 job status codes. This fixes bug #961.
554 kes Fix Win32 drive display in bat version browser. Fixes bug #962.
556 kes Fix doc issue. This fixes bug #963.
557 kes Fix listing performance problems in bat. Pointed out by
559 ebl Fix replace on restore. This fixes bug #969
560 kes Fix bat code that tests for Win32. This should fix bug #968
561 kes Query 5 list wrong Vol after migration. This fixes bug #960
563 kes Correct lib/Makefile.in to include enh_fnmatch.o that was removed
564 in back porting from 2.3.x
566 kes Backport almost 4000 lines of 2.3 code that fixes a number of bugs.
567 The details are included in the notes in this file.
569 kes Backport 2.3 code that fixes: it fixes incorrect or incomplete error
570 messages; it fixes a problem opening the SQLite3 database when multiple
571 simultaneous jobs were running; it fixes a bug with certain versions of
572 MySQL where batch inserts failed because of table name character case
573 (upper/lower) differences.
574 kes Fix race condition that drops final block written to volume.
575 This happens in rare cases with multiple simultaneous jobs
576 when the Volume fills. This fixes bug #964. May be related
577 to bug #935 and possibly #903.
579 kes Fix FD->SD authorization failure, which was due to spurious
580 wakeups from a pthread_cond_timedwait(). Simply check the
581 predicate before continuing. This fixes bug #953
582 dvl Add new configuration item --archivedir
583 dvl Adjust regression tests to use tmp not /tmp. This will allow
584 multiple concurrent runs of the regression tests.
586 kes Eliminate more strerror() and replace with bstrerror().
587 kes Remove BSD getopt and replace with unrestricted IBM version.
588 kes Fix Win32 build for changed calling sequences.
590 kes Fix FD->SD authorization failure, which was due to spurious
591 wakeups from a pthread_cond_timedwait(). Simply check the
592 predicate before continuing. This fixes bug #953.
593 kes Add const char where needed (more to do).
595 kes Setup SQLite busy handler before doing queries. Fixes bug #967.
596 kes Don't overwrite error message in check_tables_version.
598 kes Unlock batch insert tables with same calls used elsewhere.
599 kes Allow starting 59 jobs a second.
600 kes Make SD session key more random.
601 kes Add retry for SQLite opening db if it fails. Probably helps
603 kes Suppress extra error messages during batch insert failure.
605 kes Put some FD auth code on dbglvl rather than fixed.
606 kes Return insert attributes error message in db msg buffer to avoid
607 false error messages. Helps fix bug #966.
608 kes Separate batch init error messages. Probably helps fix bug #966.
609 kes If Dir gets an error during inserting attributes, cancel SD.
610 This reduces unnecessary error messages.
612 ebl Cleanup batch insert code. Probably fixes bug #965.
614 kes Turn off some code when batch insert not enabled.
615 kes Edit FD name in connect error messages.
617 kes Add code to handle tray monitor separated from Win32 FD.
618 kes Fix display of Win32 tray monitor after reboot. Fixes bug #952.
620 kes Fix ANSI tape labeling. This fixes bug #954.
621 kes Increase the max block size to 4MB fixes bug #957.
622 kes Apply 2.2.4-poll-mount fix, that resolves bug #908 where a tape
623 is not properly mounted (recognized) during a poll.
624 kes Apply 2.2.4-verify patch that resolves bug #958. A Verify catalog
625 Job that has differences reports Verify OK.
626 ebl Fixes #955 bug seg fault in Dir introduced with regexwhere relocation.
628 Release Version 2.2.4
630 kes Increase size of name string when FD making connection to SD.
633 kes Add waits to multiple exit detection code to try to force pid
634 file to always be deleted.
635 kes Restore good dev.tar.gz to rescue set appropriate binary property.
637 kes Fix seg fault in error exit of acquire_for_read after unsuccessfully
638 trying to switch drives by checking for blocking before unblocking.
640 kes Cancel storage daemon in all cases where FD reports error. This
641 should fix virtually all cases of bug #920.

930 we do not descend into it. This is a first cut. They seem to
931 be backed up, but restore is not yet tested.
932 kes Remove restore_blocking in tls code when shutting a socket to leave
933 it in blocking mode. Hopefully this will fix the encryption bug
934 reported by Frank Sweetser.

1352 The ability for the director to validate a Client (FD) CN against
1353 an arbitrary set of patterns rather than the hostname, with
1354 A new 'TLS Allowed CN' set of directives which are implemented
1355 in the Client resource. Then pattern matching is used in place

1401 it has changed during backup, if 'checkfilechanges' is set.
1402 The FD will do an extra check (stat(2)) after
1403 each file backup. mtime, ctime and size are compared with
1404 'before backup' information. If time or size mismatch, an
1405 error message will be generated. You must upgrade FD to use it.

1442 previous change (probably the recent TLS patch).
1444 kes Write new subroutine is_volume_purged() that explicitly checks
1445 if the Volume is purged, and if so marks it as such. This should
1446 resolve problems reported about needing to mount twice to recycle
1448 kes Rewrite pruning algorithm to do more work in the SQL engine, and
1449 to pass a list of JobIds to be deleted to SQL. Also, minimize the
1450 amount of duplicated code.

1479 ebl Fix AfterJob timing
1480 kes Move the checking of the database in initializion of the Director

1483 kes Correct a misplaced variable definition in src/filed/backup.c
1484 kes Correct how the new batch insert db_create_attributes_record()
1485 uses the arguments. Caused a seg fault in bscan.
1486 kes Implement lock() and unlock() methods in DEVICE class.
1487 Implement block() and set_block(xx) methods in DEVICE class.
1488 kes Modify bnet_connect() so that it uses time() to check for the
1489 wait time expiring (on some OSes, some system calls may not
1490 return immediately).
1491 kes Modify Verify to obtain the previous JobId when it is actually
1492 running rather than at schedule time (as it was in 1.38.x).
1493 kes Fix src/job.c to handle MaxWaitTime correctly. This should

1542 kes Begin implementing new comm signals for API.
1543 kes Fix a few places in lib/message.c where the open fd may
1545 kes Continue implementing lib/bsock.c (real class). Make jcr,
1546 who, host, and port private. There are new methods to access
1547 them for non-class use. This required touching a number of files.
1549 kes Add LANG=C to autoconf/randpass so it works with languages other
1550 than English. Fixes bug #788.
1552 ebl Revert ClientRunBeforeJob to old position as in 1.38.X.

1569 RecyclePool = Scratch
1573 kes Expand new BSOCK class adding signal() and new BNET signals.
1574 kes Begin enhancing the dot commands adding a new API function
1575 that returns more information and will make it easier
1576 to interface to the Director from a program.
1578 kes Make DEVICE fd private. Its new name is m_fd, and can be
1579 obtained with dev->fd() outside the class. This is the
1580 first of many DEVICE members to be made private.
1581 kes Implement Michael Renner's idea on having a virtual disk
1582 changer. I made some minor modifications (e.g. I did not
1583 implement the Virtual Changer directive, but simply set
1584 the Changer Command to an empty string.
1586 kes Implement a BSOCK send() method that writes the whole record
1587 in a single write() request rather than in two.
1588 ebl add update volume=xxx recyclepool=yyyy
1589 volume takes recyclepool from pool when using update volume=xxx from pool

1603 kes Correct VolCatBytes bug from media patch.
1604 kes Apply patch from bug #612 by Rudolf Cejka to speedup pruning
1605 in the case of orphaned records.
1606 kes Modify dbcheck to handle orphaned JobMedia, Path, Filename,
1607 and File records in 300K chunks to be more efficient. This
1608 idea came from Juan Luis Frances (if I remember right).
1609 kes Apply Eric's scratch patch that moves a purged Volume to
1610 the RecyclePool. Question: how is RecyclePool set? what
1611 happens to the ScratchPool?
1612 kes Apply Eric's media patch that collects read/write media
1613 times as well as byte counts. This patch requires a
1614 simultaneous upgrade of the DIR and SD. Note, there
1615 should be some way to turn off timing. I'm not sure
1616 times are in Bacula units.
1617 kes Apply Eric's batch-insert patch.
1619 kes Update projects list.
1621 kes Implement Include/Exclude file lists in FD as dlists using
1622 the new dlistString class. This permits efficiently having
1623 large include/exclude lists and completes project Item 25.

1625 console is authorized to cancel the job. This fixes bug
1627 kes Modify SD so that the VolCatJobs medium record is updated
1628 at the beginning of a Job rather than the end. This
1629 fixes bug #775 where exceeding MaxVolJobs caused jobs
1631 kes Added a mutex around getting and setting Volume information
1632 so that multiple simultaneous jobs will single thread.
1634 Switch to using Subversion
1635 kes Remove src/pygtk-console/ from configure
1637 kes Delete src/lib/btree.c from win32 build, then add rblist.c
1638 plus the entrypoints.
1639 kes Apply patch supplied that corrects debug print
1640 in canceling jobs for max run time. Supplied as
1641 part of bug #621, which was previously fixed.
1643 kes Test on job_canceled() and sd_msg_thread_done inside
1644 loop starting the message thread to avoid a race condition.
1646 kes Remove rl_catch_signal from console.c as it conflicted
1647 with the header definition. Fixes bug #765.
1648 ebl Fixes bug #766 about RunsOnClient = Yes (case sensitive)
1650 kes Clarify some stored/acquire messages to indicate if the
1651 problem is with read or append.
1653 kes Fix memory leak with storage ids in cats/sql_get.c
1654 kes Terminate watchdog earlier to avoid reference to released
1655 memory -- reported by Jason Austin.
1656 kes Move closing the database from jobq.c to the director daemon
1657 termination routine. This fixes memory leaks for shadow jobs
1658 (i.e. migration jobs).
1659 kes Free up the unique jobid chain items in migrate.c. This fixes
1660 a memory leak problem.
1661 kes Convert some ugly looking for statements to use foreach_alist
1662 in findlib/find.c. This will facilitate converting the structures
1663 to use dlist (for large include/exclude lists).
1664 kes Fix a bug in the btree.c and btree.h routines, then rename them
1665 rblist and add them to be built in src/lib. Include some new
1666 methods written by Rudolf Cejka that make the code more readable
1667 (hides some of the ugly casting).
1668 kes Add set_next() and set_prev() methods which make the code much more
1669 readable. Also add a new dlistString class that facilitates storing
1670 strings in dlists. To be used in the large include/exclude lists.
1671 kes Make some trivial modifications to lib/tree.h that use rblist
1672 rather than dlist for storing the tree links. This was suggested
1673 by Rudolf Cejka. The result of this is that the restore tree now
1674 uses red-black binary trees rather than simple linked lists. This
1675 should give rather dramatic speed improvements for directories
1676 contining large numbers of directories/files (more than 10000).
1678 kes Fix maxruntime bug #621.
1680 ebl Implement the include JobID in spool file name project.
