1 Technical notes on version 2.4
5 ebl Apply 2.4.3-win32-runscript-unicode-path.patch for #1110
6 about a problem when executing a program with Unicode path.
7 ebl Apply 2.4.3-unique-inchanger.patch fix for #1175 about bad slot
8 number if the volume is not in autochanger.
10 kes Probably fix for bug #1188 where Volume is purged while writing
12 kes Get message enhancement to avoid job name lookup.
14 kes Fix bug with job name duplication if more than 60 jobs created
16 kes Correct some bugs of cleanup in SD if the FD connection fails.
18 kes Fix orphaned jobs (possible deadlock) while pruning.
20 ebl Backport of the btraceback script that keeps trace file on working dir
22 kes Migrate DB Log records too. This fixes last part of bug #1171.
24 kes Modify SQL so that jobs that failed will not be migrated.
25 kes Correct bug where long retention periods caused immediate
30 ebl Apply 2.4.3-update-slots.patch to fix #1175. About update slots
31 that don't reset InChanger flag when slot is empty.
33 ebl Apply 2.4.2-cancel-non-running-jobs.patch to be able to cancel
34 a non created job faster.
36 kes This should correct bug #1159 where Migration does not properly
37 respect the Migration Low Bytes directive.
39 ebl Fix typo in configure.in that breaks --with-db-password option
41 kes This code should fix the race condition that leads to a Director
42 crash at job end time when the job list is updated. This was reported
45 kes Remove all double quotes from SQLite creating script and
46 replace by single quotes as suggested by John Huttley.
48 kes Fix SQL case problem that may cause the failure of DiskToCatalog
50 kes Copy missing storage name into edit buffer. As far as I can tell
51 this never caused a bug.
53 ebl Remove catalog dependency for bcopy
54 ebl Modify catalog scripts to have an easier packaging integration,
55 using default variables.
56 Make difference between SQLite3 and SQLite in db_get_type()
58 kes Attempt to fix bug #1128 InChanger flag cleared during Migration
59 job when reading from one autochanger and writing to another.
61 kes Add more information to SD acquire.c INFO messages.
62 kes Fix NULL Volume name error when reading and the drive must
65 kes Fix a Verify InitCatalog problem where in certain cases
66 a garbage filename may be entered in the verification database. This
68 kes Add space after version before date in bat about dialog.
70 kes Fix seg fault in Dir during estimate command with no level value
71 given. This fixes bug #1140.
73 kes Add message to migration job when the target job is already migrated.
74 This closes bug #1129.
78 kes When a migration job actually runs, re-check the Job record
79 and skip if the job is already migrated. This should
80 significantly reduce the problems with bug #1129.
82 kes Break the do_swapping into do_unload, do_swapping, and
83 do_load. It is much more logical that way.
84 kes Implement a set_dcr_from_vol subroutine in acquire.c for
85 reading volumes. This allows the dcr to be refreshed after being
86 zapped when the wrong volume is mounted.
87 This should fix bug #1126 -- During multiple tape restore, Bacula
88 does not ask for physical tape change, but rereads same tape
90 kes Apply patch submitted for bug #1107 with a small modification.
91 This fixes a bug where bcopy copied too many records.
92 kes Make some tweaks to bsmtp based on patch submitted in bug #1124.
94 kes Make the default bat restore Pool be Any. This fixes bug #1118.
97 kes Fix bug #1125 which reports a SD crash at the end of a tape
98 during restore. It was a debug statement that should not be
101 ebl fix #1034 by setting big timeout on mysql connections
103 kes Do partial integration of the Win32 bat build created by Eric.
104 kes Fix bat not to block.
106 kes Ensure that SD tried to mount a volume not in an autochanger
107 at least once before asking for operator intervention.
108 kes Fix a pthreads bug in the Win32 pthreads emulation code.
110 Release Version 2.4.1
112 kes Clear in-use bit on vol when unused while swapping.
114 kes Remove sleep at end of ./bacula
115 kes Clear hash packet for hardlinked files correctly. This corrects
116 a long standing bug where hardlinked files selected individually
117 would occasionally not be restored.
119 kes Apply Eric's patch to ensure that autoprune does not return
120 a Volume not in the autochanger unless requested to do so.
121 kes Correct bat restore display of multiple drives. This fixes
123 kes Do find_a_volume() each time an unload is done. This
124 fixes the failure of maxvol2-test.
126 Release Beta version 2.4.1-b2
128 kes Use Qmsg() in job.c watchdog callback.
130 kes Release main control rwlock if ABORTing.
131 kes Make watchdog connect timeout queue messages rather than sending
132 directly to avoid lock conflicts with the real thread.
133 kes Remove const char that causes problems with Python, which has
134 older 'incorrect' headers.
135 kes Add const char in dbd.c to avoid compiler warnings.
137 kes Fix mtx-changer to detect both versions of Ubuntu (Debian)
138 mt. This fixes bug #1116.
139 kes Fix failure of 2drive-concurrent-test. Always read label;
140 clear_unload() only after drive is defined in acquire_for_read().
142 Release Beta version 2.4.1-b1
144 kes Back out bad src/lib/base64.c change.
146 kes Generally clean up the manual tape loading code. The main
147 conceptual change is that when a volume is marked to be unloaded,
148 its volume name is retained, and it is only marked as unloaded
149 when either the autoloader says it is unloaded or another tape
150 is read on that drive.
152 kes Fix a recycling problem with two autochangers reported in bug
153 #1106. This may also (unlikely) fix a second recycling bug as
155 kes Fix a SD lock volumes deadlock problem reported in bug #1100.
157 kes Fix format problem in bscan output reported in bug #1105.
159 kes Copy more data when restarting a job so that run
160 overrides are kept. This should fix bug #1094.
161 kes Backport updates to jobq.c where possible.
163 kes Fix bug where SD did not ask operator if the device could not
164 be opened. Reported by Eric.
166 kes Add dbuser to DIR conf file (replaces user).
167 kes Add --with-db-password to ./configure
168 kes Fix regress to handle db_password.
169 kes Fix a couple of pedantic compiler warnings.
170 ebl Fix bug when starting a restore on a storage that doesn't
171 have the requested MediaType.
173 kes More work on word alignments -- eliminate all ints from
174 the configuration routines.
176 kes Fix bug reported by Scott Barninger where the bacula script
177 refers to scripts in the wrong directory. Needed to meet the
178 requirements of recent FHS location changes.
179 kes Fix word alignment problem on non-Intel 64 bit machines
180 such as Solaris. This should fix bug #1097 -- bus error in SD.
182 kes Add missing win32/patches/wxWidgets.patch to 2.4 repository.
184 Release Version 2.4.0
186 kes Update version to reflect the magnitude of the SD changes.
188 kes Make sure to clear JS_WaitMedia when operator mounts a Volume.
189 This fixes bug #1095.
191 kes Add create_postgresql_database.sql to Win32 installer. Should
192 fix problem reported by Juilio Monteiro.
193 kes Get correct slot when auto unloading a device. This fixes bug
196 kes Fix multiple media restore.
197 kes Make DEVICE Slot private and access it via a method.
198 Allows better control over when it is set and cleared.
199 kes Fix possible seg fault if SQL error.
201 kes Add debug code to SD.
202 kes Fix renaming a Volume, which used the wrong Volume name.
204 kes If operator has rewind tape, print warning, release tape and
205 try once more. If tape is positioned somewhere, something went
206 wrong, so mark the tape in error and try once more. Previously
207 this error was fatal, now it produces an error message.
208 kes Ensure correct volume name displayed during restore
209 kes Ensure that Volume is mounted for restore.
211 kes Fix a few more Coverity reported problems.
213 Beta Release Version 2.2.10-b4
215 kes Enhance a couple of SD debug messages.
216 kes Tweak unload flag setting and ensure it is set during swap.
218 ebl Fix #1091 about bad output in estimate command.
220 kes Modify autochanger locking to attempt to avoid race
222 kes Make sure device not busy before doing label command.
223 kes Display open() errors except when polling. Previously too
224 many were suppressed. This should fix bug #1070.
225 kes Fix Win32 reparse points. Bacula will not recurse into any
226 reparse point directory, including mount points, unless the
227 directory is explicitly mentioned at the top level (same as
228 with Unix). A file that is linked to another file will be
229 backed up -- much as Unix does for hardlinked files.
230 This fixes bug #1041.
232 kes Remove double quotes from ChangeLog and ReleaseNotes
233 kes Remove StorageId test when pruning and recycling (Eric's changes).
234 kes Remove old form of locking when getting volumes -- causes deadlock.
236 kes Fix buffer overruns detected by Coverity.
238 Beta Release Version 2.2.10-b3
240 kes Tweak joblog display.
242 kes Implement --without-qwt
243 kes Fix layout of restore tree dialog
244 kes Add configure bat QWT libraries, so that bat can be built
245 with or without the QWT libaries.
247 kes Apply batfix bat cleanup patch from Riccardo.
248 kes Make sure we unload the right slot when swapping.
250 kes Improve SD reserve debug code.
251 kes Testing an improvement to free up volumes no longer in use.
253 Beta Release Version 2.2.10-b2
256 kes Rework SD acquire for read to handle autochanger Volume
258 kes Implement regression that explicitly tests swapping a Volume
259 from one drive to another.
260 kes Enhance disk-changer to detect most error conditions.
261 kes Fix SD code so that it properly swaps a Volume between drives.
262 This fixes bug #1083.
264 kes Prevent a Volume that is being swapped from being freed from
265 the volume list. This will most likely fix, at least partially,
267 kes Fix strippath so that it does not get a buffer overrun and crash FD.
268 This fixes bug #1078.
269 kes Make inability to change owner/group when creating a dir only a
270 warning rather than an error.
272 ebl Fix SQL query in migration code
274 kes Force unload of volume when wrong volume mounted in SD.
276 kes Fix bat seg fault at termination.
277 kes Add Bacula generated version to bat about box.
279 Beta Release Version 2.2.10-b1
281 kes Permit multiple simultaneous restores -- experiment.
283 kes Backport development stream SD reservation system changes.
286 kes Move final volume swapping code to DCR method and
287 call it from acquire_for_read().
288 kes When wrong volume is mounted during read, unload_autochanger.
290 kes Stop searching for Volumes in SD askdir if DIR returns the
291 same volume name twice in a row.
293 kes Tweak the swap Volume from one drive to another code so that
294 it now seems to work.
295 kes Resolve several problems with recycling that broke the new
296 code (these problems are in 2.2.9 as well).
297 kes Remove the volume lock when calling the sysop code.
298 kes Don't mark a reserved volume with no writers as unused otherwise
301 kes Rework class structures for VOLRES, DCR, and DEVICE to make
302 the method names a bit more logical, and for more logically
303 handling the responsibilities.
305 kes Remove redundant code in terminating the scheduler that just
306 causes a seg fault in many cases.
307 kes Cleanup releasing a volume and make it a DCR method.
308 kes Improve algorithm for detecting pre-reserved volume and
311 kes Tweak volume swapping code so it works.
312 kes Correct name overloading in mount.c
313 kes Replace released flag in VOLRES with reserved and add access
314 methods for the VOLRES class.
315 kes Prevent volume from being released while being swapped.
316 kes Refactor parts of stored/mount.c
318 ebl Add sanity checks for VolWriteTime and VolReadTime
319 ebl Take care of bad clock changes while computing VolWriteTime
320 and VolReadTime. This should fix or limit #1066
321 kes Correct error string numbers in dird/catreq.c
322 kes Restructure reserving, acquiring, and mounting volumes. Calls to
323 autochanger are deferred for mount.c -- simplifes the code.
325 kes Do not prune any running job. It just fails the job.
326 kes Lock the volumes when changing dev->reserved_device and marking
327 the volume unused otherwise the device can get reserved by
328 another job before the volume is released, thus blocking it.
331 Beta Release Version 2.2.9-b7
333 kes Close bat console windows first to eliminate error message
335 kes Remove useless code in Scheduler that causes seg fault on
337 kes Correct some SD catalog request error messages.
338 kes Don't allow pruning of any running job.
339 kes Turn off code in read_record that causes a seg fault in the SD
340 when reading past an EOS_LABEL.
341 kes Turn off unloading the autochanger in reserve.c as it just
343 kes Lock volumes when unreserving a device.
344 kes Do not mark volume unused when recycling.
345 kes When acquiring, don't mark volume unused if it is reserved (busy).
347 Beta Release Version 2.2.9-b6
349 kes Eliminate ./configure warning on po directory
350 kes Fix bug #1063, reuse of freed ptr in list nextvol.
351 kes Release regex compile buffer in filed/job.c
352 kes Add proper type of const char in sql_create.c
353 kes Turn off debug in daemon termination routines
354 kes Move free_volume_list() before devices are freed in stored.c

368 kes Re-enable code to remember last volume mounted on a non-tape
370 kes Add patch supplied in bug #1068 that fixes a SD crash when using
371 a Virtual autochanger.
372 kes Generate correct JobMedia records during spooling/despooling when
373 running concurrent jobs. Thanks to Tom Ivar Helbekkmo
374 <tih@hamartun.priv.no> for excellent analysis and testing.
376 Beta release Version 2.2.9-b3
378 kes Rework certain SD locking based on gdb tracebacks of deadlocks
379 sent by Eric. This code now uses only the volume_lock() rather
380 than the reservations lock when at EOM and acquiring a new
382 kes Ensure only one exit point in several subroutines.
384 Beta release version 2.2.9-b2
386 kes Fix to initial tape drive open to release the volume name
388 Beta release Version 2.2.9-b1
390 kes Fix to JobMedia fix.
391 kes Fix bug pointed out by Peter Much that causes the StorageId to
392 be updated when reading a tape (during migration, it could have
393 been incorrectly set to the write StorageId).
395 kes Implement autostart scripts for Debian
397 kes Fix mtx-changer.in for broken Debian mt program.
399 kes Massive commit of all fixes and back ports to create 2.2.9
401 kes Apply doc fix from bug #1062.

403 GUI. Fixes bug #1065.
404 kes Update Win32 wxWidgets to latest version.
405 kes Attempt to do correct handling of Win32 mount points. Should
407 kes Fix Win32 FD backup/restore memory leak due to improper termination
408 of BackupRead/Write. This fixes bug# 1038.
409 kes Add const to AIX prototype for initgroups()
411 kes Undo bug #1047 heap overrun fix as it is not correct.
413 kes Fix creating first JobMedia record during Migration to include
414 proper index. This caused slow restores of migrated jobs.
416 kes Fix bug #1047, which had a heap overrun when stripping certain paths,
417 and do not strip paths on symbolic links.
418 kes Set catalog backup database and user name from values specified on
419 the ./configure line.

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

943 we do not descend into it. This is a first cut. They seem to
944 be backed up, but restore is not yet tested.
945 kes Remove restore_blocking in tls code when shutting a socket to leave

1365 The ability for the director to validate a Client (FD) CN against
1366 an arbitrary set of patterns rather than the hostname, with
1367 A new 'TLS Allowed CN' set of directives which are implemented
1368 in the Client resource. Then pattern matching is used in place

1414 it has changed during backup, if 'checkfilechanges' is set.
1415 The FD will do an extra check (stat(2)) after
1416 each file backup. mtime, ctime and size are compared with
1417 'before backup' information. If time or size mismatch, an
1418 error message will be generated. You must upgrade FD to use it.
1420 kes Make database name and user configurable

1454 kes Correct Qmsg() that was not updated correctly when committing a
1455 previous change (probably the recent TLS patch).
1457 kes Write new subroutine is_volume_purged() that explicitly checks
1458 if the Volume is purged, and if so marks it as such. This should
1459 resolve problems reported about needing to mount twice to recycle
1461 kes Rewrite pruning algorithm to do more work in the SQL engine, and
1462 to pass a list of JobIds to be deleted to SQL. Also, minimize the
1463 amount of duplicated code.

1492 ebl Fix AfterJob timing
1493 kes Move the checking of the database in initializion of the Director

1496 kes Correct a misplaced variable definition in src/filed/backup.c
1497 kes Correct how the new batch insert db_create_attributes_record()
1498 uses the arguments. Caused a seg fault in bscan.
1499 kes Implement lock() and unlock() methods in DEVICE class.
1500 Implement block() and set_block(xx) methods in DEVICE class.
1501 kes Modify bnet_connect() so that it uses time() to check for the
1502 wait time expiring (on some OSes, some system calls may not
1503 return immediately).
1504 kes Modify Verify to obtain the previous JobId when it is actually
1505 running rather than at schedule time (as it was in 1.38.x).
1506 kes Fix src/job.c to handle MaxWaitTime correctly. This should

1555 kes Begin implementing new comm signals for API.
1556 kes Fix a few places in lib/message.c where the open fd may
1558 kes Continue implementing lib/bsock.c (real class). Make jcr,
1559 who, host, and port private. There are new methods to access
1560 them for non-class use. This required touching a number of files.
1562 kes Add LANG=C to autoconf/randpass so it works with languages other
1563 than English. Fixes bug #788.
1565 ebl Revert ClientRunBeforeJob to old position as in 1.38.X.

1582 RecyclePool = Scratch
1586 kes Expand new BSOCK class adding signal() and new BNET signals.
1587 kes Begin enhancing the dot commands adding a new API function
1588 that returns more information and will make it easier
1589 to interface to the Director from a program.
1591 kes Make DEVICE fd private. Its new name is m_fd, and can be
1592 obtained with dev->fd() outside the class. This is the
1593 first of many DEVICE members to be made private.
1594 kes Implement Michael Renner's idea on having a virtual disk
1595 changer. I made some minor modifications (e.g. I did not
1596 implement the Virtual Changer directive, but simply set
1597 the Changer Command to an empty string.
1599 kes Implement a BSOCK send() method that writes the whole record
1600 in a single write() request rather than in two.
1601 ebl add update volume=xxx recyclepool=yyyy
1602 volume takes recyclepool from pool when using update volume=xxx from pool

1616 kes Correct VolCatBytes bug from media patch.
1617 kes Apply patch from bug #612 by Rudolf Cejka to speedup pruning
1618 in the case of orphaned records.
1619 kes Modify dbcheck to handle orphaned JobMedia, Path, Filename,
1620 and File records in 300K chunks to be more efficient. This
1621 idea came from Juan Luis Frances (if I remember right).
1622 kes Apply Eric's scratch patch that moves a purged Volume to
1623 the RecyclePool. Question: how is RecyclePool set? what
1624 happens to the ScratchPool?
1625 kes Apply Eric's media patch that collects read/write media
1626 times as well as byte counts. This patch requires a
1627 simultaneous upgrade of the DIR and SD. Note, there
1628 should be some way to turn off timing. I'm not sure
1629 times are in Bacula units.
1630 kes Apply Eric's batch-insert patch.
1632 kes Update projects list.
1634 kes Implement Include/Exclude file lists in FD as dlists using
1635 the new dlistString class. This permits efficiently having
1636 large include/exclude lists and completes project Item 25.

1638 console is authorized to cancel the job. This fixes bug
1640 kes Modify SD so that the VolCatJobs medium record is updated
1641 at the beginning of a Job rather than the end. This
1642 fixes bug #775 where exceeding MaxVolJobs caused jobs
1644 kes Added a mutex around getting and setting Volume information
1645 so that multiple simultaneous jobs will single thread.
1647 Switch to using Subversion
1648 kes Remove src/pygtk-console/ from configure
1650 kes Delete src/lib/btree.c from win32 build, then add rblist.c
1651 plus the entrypoints.
1652 kes Apply patch supplied that corrects debug print
1653 in canceling jobs for max run time. Supplied as
1654 part of bug #621, which was previously fixed.
1656 kes Test on job_canceled() and sd_msg_thread_done inside
1657 loop starting the message thread to avoid a race condition.
1659 kes Remove rl_catch_signal from console.c as it conflicted
1660 with the header definition. Fixes bug #765.
1661 ebl Fixes bug #766 about RunsOnClient = Yes (case sensitive)
1663 kes Clarify some stored/acquire messages to indicate if the
1664 problem is with read or append.
1666 kes Fix memory leak with storage ids in cats/sql_get.c
1667 kes Terminate watchdog earlier to avoid reference to released
1668 memory -- reported by Jason Austin.
1669 kes Move closing the database from jobq.c to the director daemon
1670 termination routine. This fixes memory leaks for shadow jobs
1671 (i.e. migration jobs).
1672 kes Free up the unique jobid chain items in migrate.c. This fixes
1673 a memory leak problem.
1674 kes Convert some ugly looking for statements to use foreach_alist
1675 in findlib/find.c. This will facilitate converting the structures
1676 to use dlist (for large include/exclude lists).
1677 kes Fix a bug in the btree.c and btree.h routines, then rename them
1678 rblist and add them to be built in src/lib. Include some new
1679 methods written by Rudolf Cejka that make the code more readable
1680 (hides some of the ugly casting).
1681 kes Add set_next() and set_prev() methods which make the code much more
1682 readable. Also add a new dlistString class that facilitates storing
1683 strings in dlists. To be used in the large include/exclude lists.
1684 kes Make some trivial modifications to lib/tree.h that use rblist
1685 rather than dlist for storing the tree links. This was suggested
1686 by Rudolf Cejka. The result of this is that the restore tree now
1687 uses red-black binary trees rather than simple linked lists. This
1688 should give rather dramatic speed improvements for directories
1689 contining large numbers of directories/files (more than 10000).
1691 kes Fix maxruntime bug #621.
1693 ebl Implement the include JobID in spool file name project.
