1 Technical notes on version 2.4
5 ebl Apply 2.4.2-cancel-non-running-jobs.patch to be able to cancel
6 a non created job faster.
8 kes This should correct bug #1159 where Migration does not properly
9 respect the Migration Low Bytes directive.
11 ebl Fix typo in configure.in that breaks --with-db-password option
13 kes This code should fix the race condition that leads to a Director
14 crash at job end time when the job list is updated. This was reported
17 kes Remove all double quotes from SQLite creating script and
18 replace by single quotes as suggested by John Huttley.
20 kes Fix SQL case problem that may cause the failure of DiskToCatalog
22 kes Copy missing storage name into edit buffer. As far as I can tell
23 this never caused a bug.
25 ebl Remove catalog dependency for bcopy
26 ebl Modify catalog scripts to have an easier packaging integration,
27 using default variables.
28 Make difference between SQLite3 and SQLite in db_get_type()
30 kes Attempt to fix bug #1128 InChanger flag cleared during Migration
31 job when reading from one autochanger and writing to another.
33 kes Add more information to SD acquire.c INFO messages.
34 kes Fix NULL Volume name error when reading and the drive must
37 kes Fix a Verify InitCatalog problem where in certain cases
38 a garbage filename may be entered in the verification database. This
40 kes Add space after version before date in bat about dialog.
42 kes Fix seg fault in Dir during estimate command with no level value
43 given. This fixes bug #1140.
45 kes Add message to migration job when the target job is already migrated.
46 This closes bug #1129.
50 kes When a migration job actually runs, re-check the Job record
51 and skip if the job is already migrated. This should
52 significantly reduce the problems with bug #1129.
54 kes Break the do_swapping into do_unload, do_swapping, and
55 do_load. It is much more logical that way.
56 kes Implement a set_dcr_from_vol subroutine in acquire.c for
57 reading volumes. This allows the dcr to be refreshed after being
58 zapped when the wrong volume is mounted.
59 This should fix bug #1126 -- During multiple tape restore, bacula
60 does not ask for physical tape change, but rereads same tape
62 kes Apply patch submitted for bug #1107 with a small modification.
63 This fixes a bug where bcopy copied too many records.
64 kes Make some tweaks to bsmtp based on patch submitted in bug #1124.
66 kes Make the default bat restore Pool be Any. This fixes bug #1118.
69 kes Fix bug #1125 which reports a SD crash at the end of a tape
70 during restore. It was a debug statement that should not be
73 ebl fix #1034 by setting big timeout on mysql connections
75 kes Do partial integration of the Win32 bat build created by Eric.
76 kes Fix bat not to block.
78 kes Ensure that SD tried to mount a volume not in an autochanger
79 at least once before asking for operator intervention.
80 kes Fix a pthreads bug in the Win32 pthreads emulation code.
84 kes Clear in-use bit on vol when unused while swapping.
86 kes Remove sleep at end of ./bacula
87 kes Clear hash packet for hardlinked files correctly. This corrects
88 a long standing bug where hardlinked files selected individually
89 would occasionally not be restored.
91 kes Apply Eric's patch to ensure that autoprune does not return
92 a Volume not in the autochanger unless requested to do so.
93 kes Correct bat restore display of multiple drives. This fixes
95 kes Do find_a_volume() each time an unload is done. This
96 fixes the failure of maxvol2-test.
98 Release Beta version 2.4.1-b2
100 kes Use Qmsg() in job.c watchdog callback.
102 kes Release main control rwlock if ABORTing.
103 kes Make watchdog connect timeout queue messages rather than sending
104 directly to avoid lock conflicts with the real thread.
105 kes Remove const char that causes problems with Python, which has
106 older 'incorrect' headers.
107 kes Add const char in dbd.c to avoid compiler warnings.
109 kes Fix mtx-changer to detect both versions of Ubuntu (Debian)
110 mt. This fixes bug #1116.
111 kes Fix failure of 2drive-concurrent-test. Always read label;
112 clear_unload() only after drive is defined in acquire_for_read().
114 Release Beta version 2.4.1-b1
116 kes Back out bad src/lib/base64.c change.
118 kes Generally clean up the manual tape loading code. The main
119 conceptial change is that when a volume is marked to be unloaded,
120 its volume name is retained, and it is only marked as unloaded
121 when either the autoloader says it is unloaded or another tape
122 is read on that drive.
124 kes Fix a recycling problem with two autochangers reported in bug
125 #1106. This may also (unlikely) fix a second recycling bug as
127 kes Fix a SD lock volumes deadlock problem reported in bug #1100.
129 kes Fix format problem in bscan output reported in bug #1105.
131 kes Copy more data when restarting a job so that run
132 overrides are kept. This should fix bug #1094.
133 kes Backport updates to jobq.c where possible.
135 kes Fix bug where SD did not ask operator if the device could not
136 be opened. Reported by Eric.
138 kes Add dbuser to DIR conf file (replaces user).
139 kes Add --with-db-password to ./configure
140 kes Fix regress to handle db_password.
141 kes Fix a couple of pedantic compiler warnings.
142 ebl Fix bug when starting a restore on a storage that doesn't
143 have the requested MediaType.
145 kes More work on word alignments -- eliminate all ints from
146 the configuration routines.
148 kes Fix bug reported by Scott Barninger where the bacula script
149 refers to scripts in the wrong directory. Needed to meet the
150 requirements of recent FHS location changes.
151 kes Fix word alignment problem on non-Intel 64 bit machines
152 such as Solaris. This should fix bug #1097 -- bus error in SD.
154 kes Add missing win32/patches/wxWidgets.patch to 2.4 repository.
156 Release Version 2.4.0
158 kes Update version to reflect the magnitude of the SD changes.
160 kes Make sure to clear JS_WaitMedia when operator mounts a Volume.
161 This fixes bug #1095.
163 kes Add create_postgresql_database.sql to Win32 installer. Should
164 fix problem reported by Juilio Monteiro.
165 kes Get correct slot when auto unloading a device. This fixes bug
168 kes Fix multiple media restore.
169 kes Make DEVICE Slot private and access it via a method.
170 Allows better control over when it is set and cleared.
171 kes Fix possible seg fault if SQL error.
173 kes Add debug code to SD.
174 kes Fix renaming a Volume, which used the wrong Volume name.
176 kes If operator has rewind tape, print warning, release tape and
177 try once more. If tape is positioned somewhere, something went
178 wrong, so mark the tape in error and try once more. Previously
179 this error was fatal, now it produces an error message.
180 kes Ensure correct volume name displayed during restore
181 kes Ensure that Volume is mounted for restore.
183 kes Fix a few more Coverity reported problems.
185 Beta Release Version 2.2.10-b4
187 kes Enhance a couple of SD debug messages.
188 kes Tweak unload flag setting and ensure it is set during swap.
190 ebl Fix #1091 about bad output in estimate command.
192 kes Modify autochanger locking to attempt to avoid race
194 kes Make sure device not busy before doing label command.
195 kes Display open() errors except when polling. Previously too
196 many were suppressed. This should fix bug #1070.
197 kes Fix Win32 reparse points. Bacula will not recurse into any
198 reparse point directory, including mount points, unless the
199 directory is explicitly mentioned at the top level (same as
200 with Unix). A file that is linked to another file will be
201 backed up -- much as Unix does for hardlinked files.
202 This fixes bug #1041.
204 kes Remove double quotes from ChangeLog and ReleaseNotes
205 kes Remove StorageId test when pruning and recycling (Eric's changes).
206 kes Remove old form of locking when getting volumes -- causes deadlock.
208 kes Fix buffer overruns detected by Coverity.
210 Beta Release Version 2.2.10-b3
212 kes Tweak joblog display.
214 kes Implement --without-qwt
215 kes Fix layout of restore tree dialog
216 kes Add configure bat QWT libraries, so that bat can be built
217 with or without the QWT libaries.
219 kes Apply batfix bat cleanup patch from Riccardo.
220 kes Make sure we unload the right slot when swapping.
222 kes Improve SD reserve debug code.
223 kes Testing an improvement to free up volumes no longer in use.
225 Beta Release Version 2.2.10-b2
228 kes Rework SD acquire for read to handle autochanger Volume
230 kes Implement regression that explicitly tests swapping a Volume
231 from one drive to another.
232 kes Enhance disk-changer to detect most error conditions.
233 kes Fix SD code so that it properly swaps a Volume between drives.
234 This fixes bug #1083.
236 kes Prevent a Volume that is being swapped from being freed from
237 the volume list. This will most likely fix, at least partially,
239 kes Fix strippath so that it does not get a buffer overrun and crash FD.
240 This fixes bug #1078.
241 kes Make inability to change owner/group when creating a dir only a
242 warning rather than an error.
244 ebl Fix SQL query in migration code
246 kes Force unload of volume when wrong volume mounted in SD.
248 kes Fix bat seg fault at termination.
249 kes Add Bacula generated version to bat about box.
251 Beta Release Version 2.2.10-b1
253 kes Permit multiple simultaneous restores -- experiment.
255 kes Backport development stream SD reservation system changes.
258 kes Move final volume swapping code to DCR method and
259 call it from acquire_for_read().
260 kes When wrong volume is mounted during read, unload_autochanger.
262 kes Stop searching for Volumes in SD askdir if DIR returns the
263 same volume name twice in a row.
265 kes Tweak the swap Volume from one drive to another code so that
266 it now seems to work.
267 kes Resolve several problems with recycling that broke the new
268 code (these problems are in 2.2.9 as well).
269 kes Remove the volume lock when calling the sysop code.
270 kes Don't mark a reserved volume with no writers as unused otherwise
273 kes Rework class structures for VOLRES, DCR, and DEVICE to make
274 the method names a bit more logical, and for more logically
275 handling the responsibilities.
277 kes Remove redundant code in terminating the scheduler that just
278 causes a seg fault in many cases.
279 kes Cleanup releasing a volume and make it a DCR method.
280 kes Improve algorithm for detecting pre-reserved volume and
283 kes Tweak volume swapping code so it works.
284 kes Correct name overloading in mount.c
285 kes Replace released flag in VOLRES with reserved and add access
286 methods for the VOLRES class.
287 kes Prevent volume from being released while being swapped.
288 kes Refactor parts of stored/mount.c
290 ebl Add sanity checks for VolWriteTime and VolReadTime
291 ebl Take care of bad clock changes while computing VolWriteTime
292 and VolReadTime. This should fix or limit #1066
293 kes Correct error string numbers in dird/catreq.c
294 kes Restructure reserving, acquiring, and mounting volumes. Calls to
295 autochanger are deferred for mount.c -- simplifes the code.
297 kes Do not prune any running job. It just fails the job.
298 kes Lock the volumes when changing dev->reserved_device and marking
299 the volume unused otherwise the device can get reserved by
300 another job before the volume is released, thus blocking it.
303 Beta Release Version 2.2.9-b7
305 kes Close bat console windows first to eliminate error message
307 kes Remove useless code in Scheduler that causes seg fault on
309 kes Correct some SD catalog request error messages.

312 when reading past an EOS_LABEL.
313 kes Turn off unloading the autochanger in reserve.c as it just
315 kes Lock volumes when unreserving a device.
316 kes Do not mark volume unused when recycling.
317 kes When acquiring, don't mark volume unused if it is reserved (busy).
319 Beta Release Version 2.2.9-b6
321 kes Eliminate ./configure warning on po directory
322 kes Fix bug #1063, reuse of freed ptr in list nextvol.
323 kes Release regex compile buffer in filed/job.c

340 kes Re-enable code to remember last volume mounted on a non-tape
342 kes Add patch supplied in bug #1068 that fixes a SD crash when using
343 a Virtual autochanger.
344 kes Generate correct JobMedia records during spooling/despooling when
345 running concurrent jobs. Thanks to Tom Ivar Helbekkmo
346 <tih@hamartun.priv.no> for excellent analysis and testing.
348 Beta release Version 2.2.9-b3
350 kes Rework certain SD locking based on gdb tracebacks of deadlocks
351 sent by Eric. This code now uses only the volume_lock() rather
352 than the reservations lock when at EOM and acquiring a new
354 kes Ensure only one exit point in several subroutines.
356 Beta release version 2.2.9-b2
358 kes Fix to initial tape drive open to release the volume name
360 Beta release Version 2.2.9-b1
362 kes Fix to JobMedia fix.
363 kes Fix bug pointed out by Peter Much that causes the StorageId to
364 be updated when reading a tape (during migration, it could have
365 been incorrectly set to the write StorageId).
367 kes Implement autostart scripts for Debian
369 kes Fix mtx-changer.in for broken Debian mt program.
371 kes Massive commit of all fixes and back ports to create 2.2.9
373 kes Apply doc fix from bug #1062.

375 GUI. Fixes bug #1065.
376 kes Update Win32 wxWidgets to latest version.
377 kes Attempt to do correct handling of Win32 mount points. Should
379 kes Fix Win32 FD backup/restore memory leak due to improper termination

381 kes Add const to AIX prototype for initgroups()
383 kes Undo bug #1047 heap overrun fix as it is not correct.
385 kes Fix creating first JobMedia record during Migration to include
386 proper index. This caused slow restores of migrated jobs.

399 kes Fixed important spelling error in doc -- bug #1045.
401 kes Move initialization of read/write res lock earlier in the code.
402 This fixes the crash with a null conf file. This fixes bug
404 kes Redefine CURES in lib/parse_conf to be URES and move it all
405 into lib/parse_conf.c -- this responds to bug #1042, but does
406 not fix it. The fix is not to compile with FORTIFY_SOURCE.
407 kes Backport fix de-referencing a NULL pointer in the scanner from
408 the trunk SVN. I don't think this was reported as a bug.
410 Beta release Version 2.2.8
412 kes Re-enable the new job code editing (%f).
414 kes Fix bsnprintf for float point numbers. I broke recently when
415 parameterizing some variables. This fixes bug #1036.
417 kes Move Heartbeat documentation from Job to Director resource.
418 This fixes bug #1033.
420 kes Fix existing switch drive SD code to call autochanger to release
421 any old volume. This must be done to keep the autochanger from
422 releasing subsequently newly reserved volumes in doing a close().
423 This should possibly fix bugs #1032 and #1018.
424 kes Apply big backport of current SVN SD code that corrects a number
425 of race conditions. This is a first step in fixing bug #1018.
427 ebl Fixes bug #1028 where "Selection Type" option was not usable
431 Release Version 2.2.7
433 kes Partial back out (disabled) %f job code editing because it
434 does not build on Win32.
435 kes Fix seg fault Frank Sweetser reports in regression testing
436 on his systems. The problem was that the original author of
437 bsnprintf.c did not take into account the side effects of
438 using ++x in the argument to a #define.
440 kes Apply patch from Michael Stapelberg <michael@stapelberg.de>
441 that implements double quoting include names in conf files,
442 and also allows piping input by having the first character
443 be a vertical bar (|).
444 kes Apply patch from Bastian Friedrich <bastian.friedrich@collax.com>
445 that implement %f in RunScripts to pass the FileSet name.
446 kes Skip leading | when lex input comes from a pipe as suggested
447 by Michael Stapelberg <michael@stapelberg.de>.
449 kes Apply patch for bsmtp Win32 daylight savings time fix supplied by
450 Nerijus Baliunas <nerijus@users.sourceforge.net>
452 kes This patch corrects a problem where the maximum concurrent storage
453 jobs counter gets out of sync during restore jobs causing jobs to
454 'wait on max Storage jobs'. This patch fixes bug #1009.
456 kes Add new include to postgresql.c suggested by Marc Cousins so
457 that it compiles correctly with pgre version 8.3. Also fix
458 misuse of %x with pointer (should be %p).
460 kes This patch fixes bcopy so that it produces correct Volumes.
462 kes This patch eliminates spurious output to the console during a VerifyVolume
463 job that contains encrypted data. It fixes bug #1024.
465 kes This patch prevents the 'status dir' command from trying to use a scratch
466 volume and possibly moving it from one pool to another. This patch fixes
469 kes Fix --archivedir addition to configure. Replace it with
470 --with-archivedir in configure.in This fixes the regression
472 kes This patch fixes bug #1012 where the job is canceled because
473 of Max Run Time exceeded when the job has not yet started.
475 ebl Apply Richard Mortimer patch that fixes #1016 when there are more than
476 one 'part' to write. Instead of each part being stored on disk,
477 written to DVD, then deleted from disk, all parts are written to disk,
478 and only the last is written and deleted from disk.
480 kes Correct typos in disk-changer.in
482 kes This patch fixes the status command to include the formating string for
483 JS_AttrInserting. It fixes bug #1021.
484 kes This patch should fix the Mac OS X build problem on the latest
485 Darwin, where sys/types.h was not included correctly (apparently
486 due to a change in the Mac headers). The solution was to explicitly
487 ensure that it is defined for the ./configure.
488 This patch also has a rebuild of configure that includes the Debian
489 qt4 patch to check for qmake-qt4. This patch fixes bug #1020.
490 kes This patch should ensure that queued messages to the console are
491 displayed as soon as possible. It should fix bug #1007, but has been
492 reported not to work.
494 kes This patch fixes the infinite loop when trying to increase the
495 maximum number of volumes in a Pool during the add command.
496 This patch fixes bug #1008.
498 Release Version 2.2.6
500 kes Get fix for joblist bug in bat from trunk.
502 kes This patch fixes bug #1003 where putting the message output from
503 a Verify job into the catalog results in a recursive loop. The problem
504 seems to show up only with postgresql (to be verified).
506 kes Fix bug #942 where lots of emails where generated when the heartbeat
507 interval was low and Bacula wanted a different tape from the one in
510 ebl Apply 2.2.5-lastwritten.patch to fix the LastWritten field
511 which was updated during a restore (or a reading migration) bug #982
513 ebl Use qmake-qt4 instead of qmake when available (debian system).
515 kes Add a security warning to src/cats/make_catalog_backup.in indicating
516 that passing the password via the command line (arg 3) is insecure.
517 This responds to bug #990 (it doesn't fix it).
518 kes Apply 2.2.5-postgresql-errors.patch
519 kes Remove unneeded File table index on JobId, which is already
520 present as the first index of another multi-index.
522 kes Set default debug_level to zero. This corrects bugs #991 and #993.
523 kes Fix a crash in bat when it cannot connect to the Director for example
524 if the Director is not running.
526 kes Activate Close button on tray-monitor window. This fixes
529 kes Fix spurious warning message printed when creating a volume with
530 a LabelFormat. This fixes bug #976.
532 Release Version 2.2.5
534 kes Add JobId in place of Job name in all the Jmsg() output.
535 kes Correct the APP_DESC for the Win32 storage service (remove an e).
537 kes Add new SD despooling attributes and Dir inserting attributes
538 job status codes. This fixes bug #961.
539 kes Fix Win32 drive display in bat version browser. Fixes bug #962.
541 kes Fix doc issue. This fixes bug #963.
542 kes Fix listing performance problems in bat. Pointed out by
544 ebl Fix replace on restore. This fixes bug #969
545 kes Fix bat code that tests for Win32. This should fix bug #968

548 kes Correct lib/Makefile.in to include enh_fnmatch.o that was removed
549 in back porting from 2.3.x
551 kes Backport almost 4000 lines of 2.3 code that fixes a number of bugs.
552 The details are included in the notes in this file.
554 kes Backport 2.3 code that fixes: it fixes incorrect or incomplete error
555 messages; it fixes a problem opening the SQLite3 database when multiple
556 simultaneous jobs were running; it fixes a bug with certain versions of
557 MySQL where batch inserts failed because of table name character case
558 (upper/lower) differences.
559 kes Fix race condition that drops final block written to volume.
560 This happens in rare cases with multiple simultaneous jobs
561 when the Volume fills. This fixes bug #964. May be related
562 to bug #935 and possibly #903.
564 kes Fix FD->SD authorization failure, which was due to spurious
565 wakeups from a pthread_cond_timedwait(). Simply check the
566 predicate before continuing. This fixes bug #953
567 dvl Add new configuration item --archivedir
568 dvl Adjust regression tests to use tmp not /tmp. This will allow
569 multiple concurrent runs of the regression tests.
571 kes Eliminate more strerror() and replace with bstrerror().
572 kes Remove BSD getopt and replace with unrestricted IBM version.
573 kes Fix Win32 build for changed calling sequences.
575 kes Fix FD->SD authorization failure, which was due to spurious
576 wakeups from a pthread_cond_timedwait(). Simply check the
577 predicate before continuing. This fixes bug #953.
578 kes Add const char where needed (more to do).
580 kes Setup SQLite busy handler before doing queries. Fixes bug #967.
581 kes Don't overwrite error message in check_tables_version.
583 kes Unlock batch insert tables with same calls used elsewhere.
584 kes Allow starting 59 jobs a second.
585 kes Make SD session key more random.
586 kes Add retry for SQLite opening db if it fails. Probably helps
588 kes Suppress extra error messages during batch insert failure.
590 kes Put some FD auth code on dbglvl rather than fixed.
591 kes Return insert attributes error message in db msg buffer to avoid
592 false error messages. Helps fix bug #966.
593 kes Separate batch init error messages. Probably helps fix bug #966.
594 kes If Dir gets an error during inserting attributes, cancel SD.
595 This reduces unnecessary error messages.
597 ebl Cleanup batch insert code. Probably fixes bug #965.
599 kes Turn off some code when batch insert not enabled.
600 kes Edit FD name in connect error messages.
602 kes Add code to handle tray monitor separated from Win32 FD.
603 kes Fix display of Win32 tray monitor after reboot. Fixes bug #952.
605 kes Fix ANSI tape labeling. This fixes bug #954.
606 kes Increase the max block size to 4MB fixes bug #957.
607 kes Apply 2.2.4-poll-mount fix, that resolves bug #908 where a tape
608 is not properly mounted (recognized) during a poll.
609 kes Apply 2.2.4-verify patch that resolves bug #958. A Verify catalog
610 Job that has differences reports Verify OK.
611 ebl Fixes #955 bug seg fault in Dir introduced with regexwhere relocation.
613 Release Version 2.2.4
615 kes Increase size of name string when FD making connection to SD.
618 kes Add waits to multiple exit detection code to try to force pid
619 file to always be deleted.
620 kes Restore good dev.tar.gz to rescue set appropriate binary property.
622 kes Fix seg fault in error exit of acquire_for_read after unsuccessfully
623 trying to switch drives by checking for blocking before unblocking.
625 kes Cancel storage daemon in all cases where FD reports error. This
626 should fix virtually all cases of bug #920.
628 kes Fix error message that was clobbered when Dir tells SD it does not
629 have write permission on Volume. This should fix a minor point
630 in bug #942, but not the main problem.
631 kes Add code to cancel job in SD if FD connection fails. This should
633 kes Add code in FD exit to prevent loops and a crash on FreeBSD.
634 kes Fix migration code to get correct Volume name with multiple volumes
635 by skipping |. Fixes bug #936.
636 kes Implement patch supplied by Landon to fix bug #944 where using

1337 The ability for the director to validate a Client (FD) CN against
1338 an arbitrary set of patterns rather than the hostname, with
1339 A new 'TLS Allowed CN' set of directives which are implemented
1340 in the Client resource. Then pattern matching is used in place

1386 it has changed during backup, if 'checkfilechanges' is set.
1387 The FD will do an extra check (stat(2)) after
1388 each file backup. mtime, ctime and size are compared with
1389 'before backup' information. If time or size mismatch, an
1390 error message will be generated. You must upgrade FD to use it.
1392 kes Make database name and user configurable

1424 for SD requests and for the list nextvolume command.
1426 kes Correct Qmsg() that was not updated correctly when committing a
1427 previous change (probably the recent TLS patch).
1429 kes Write new subroutine is_volume_purged() that explicitly checks
1430 if the Volume is purged, and if so marks it as such. This should
1431 resolve problems reported about needing to mount twice to recycle
1433 kes Rewrite pruning algorithm to do more work in the SQL engine, and
1434 to pass a list of JobIds to be deleted to SQL. Also, minimize the
1435 amount of duplicated code.

1464 ebl Fix AfterJob timing
1465 kes Move the checking of the database in initializion of the Director

1467 and bacula access to the DB.
1468 kes Correct a misplaced variable definition in src/filed/backup.c
1469 kes Correct how the new batch insert db_create_attributes_record()
1470 uses the arguments. Caused a seg fault in bscan.
1471 kes Implement lock() and unlock() methods in DEVICE class.
1472 Implement block() and set_block(xx) methods in DEVICE class.
1473 kes Modify bnet_connect() so that it uses time() to check for the
1474 wait time expiring (on some OSes, some system calls may not
1475 return immediately).
1476 kes Modify Verify to obtain the previous JobId when it is actually
1477 running rather than at schedule time (as it was in 1.38.x).
1478 kes Fix src/job.c to handle MaxWaitTime correctly. This should
1480 kes When checking pid in pid file, continue running if the pid is
1481 the same as ours. This occurs on IRIX after a system crash.

1527 kes Begin implementing new comm signals for API.
1528 kes Fix a few places in lib/message.c where the open fd may
1530 kes Continue implementing lib/bsock.c (real class). Make jcr,
1531 who, host, and port private. There are new methods to access
1532 them for non-class use. This required touching a number of files.
1534 kes Add LANG=C to autoconf/randpass so it works with languages other
1535 than English. Fixes bug #788.
1537 ebl Revert ClientRunBeforeJob to old position as in 1.38.X.

1554 RecyclePool = Scratch
1558 kes Expand new BSOCK class adding signal() and new BNET signals.
1559 kes Begin enhancing the dot commands adding a new API function
1560 that returns more information and will make it easier
1561 to interface to the Director from a program.
1563 kes Make DEVICE fd private. Its new name is m_fd, and can be
1564 obtained with dev->fd() outside the class. This is the
1565 first of many DEVICE members to be made private.
1566 kes Implement Michael Renner's idea on having a virtual disk
1567 changer. I made some minor modifications (e.g. I did not
1568 implement the Virtual Changer directive, but simply set
1569 the Changer Command to an empty string.
1571 kes Implement a BSOCK send() method that writes the whole record
1572 in a single write() request rather than in two.
1573 ebl add update volume=xxx recyclepool=yyyy
1574 volume takes recyclepool from pool when using update volume=xxx from pool
1576 kes Fix encryption deblocking bug, which caused some restored files
1577 to be truncated. This fixes bug #763.

1588 kes Correct VolCatBytes bug from media patch.
1589 kes Apply patch from bug #612 by Rudolf Cejka to speedup pruning
1590 in the case of orphaned records.
1591 kes Modify dbcheck to handle orphaned JobMedia, Path, Filename,
1592 and File records in 300K chunks to be more efficient. This
1593 idea came from Juan Luis Frances (if I remember right).
1594 kes Apply Eric's scratch patch that moves a purged Volume to
1595 the RecyclePool. Question: how is RecyclePool set? what
1596 happens to the ScratchPool?
1597 kes Apply Eric's media patch that collects read/write media
1598 times as well as byte counts. This patch requires a
1599 simultaneous upgrade of the DIR and SD. Note, there
1600 should be some way to turn off timing. I'm not sure
1601 times are in Bacula units.
1602 kes Apply Eric's batch-insert patch.
1604 kes Update projects list.
1606 kes Implement Include/Exclude file lists in FD as dlists using
1607 the new dlistString class. This permits efficiently having
1608 large include/exclude lists and completes project Item 25.

1610 console is authorized to cancel the job. This fixes bug
1612 kes Modify SD so that the VolCatJobs medium record is updated
1613 at the beginning of a Job rather than the end. This
1614 fixes bug #775 where exceeding MaxVolJobs caused jobs
1616 kes Added a mutex around getting and setting Volume information
1617 so that multiple simultaneous jobs will single thread.
1619 Switch to using Subversion
1620 kes Remove src/pygtk-console/ from configure
1622 kes Delete src/lib/btree.c from win32 build, then add rblist.c
1623 plus the entrypoints.
1624 kes Apply patch supplied that corrects debug print
1625 in canceling jobs for max run time. Supplied as
1626 part of bug #621, which was previously fixed.
1628 kes Test on job_canceled() and sd_msg_thread_done inside
1629 loop starting the message thread to avoid a race condition.
1631 kes Remove rl_catch_signal from console.c as it conflicted
1632 with the header definition. Fixes bug #765.
1633 ebl Fixes bug #766 about RunsOnClient = Yes (case sensitive)
1635 kes Clarify some stored/acquire messages to indicate if the
1636 problem is with read or append.
1638 kes Fix memory leak with storage ids in cats/sql_get.c
1639 kes Terminate watchdog earlier to avoid reference to released
1640 memory -- reported by Jason Austin.
1641 kes Move closing the database from jobq.c to the director daemon
1642 termination routine. This fixes memory leaks for shadow jobs
1643 (i.e. migration jobs).
1644 kes Free up the unique jobid chain items in migrate.c. This fixes
1645 a memory leak problem.
1646 kes Convert some ugly looking for statements to use foreach_alist
1647 in findlib/find.c. This will facilitate converting the structures
1648 to use dlist (for large include/exclude lists).
1649 kes Fix a bug in the btree.c and btree.h routines, then rename them
1650 rblist and add them to be built in src/lib. Include some new
1651 methods written by Rudolf Cejka that make the code more readable
1652 (hides some of the ugly casting).
1653 kes Add set_next() and set_prev() methods which make the code much more
1654 readable. Also add a new dlistString class that facilitates storing
1655 strings in dlists. To be used in the large include/exclude lists.
1656 kes Make some trivial modifications to lib/tree.h that use rblist
1657 rather than dlist for storing the tree links. This was suggested
1658 by Rudolf Cejka. The result of this is that the restore tree now
1659 uses red-black binary trees rather than simple linked lists. This
1660 should give rather dramatic speed improvements for directories
1661 contining large numbers of directories/files (more than 10000).
1663 kes Fix maxruntime bug #621.
1665 ebl Implement the include JobID in spool file name project.

1703 kes Modify USTORE constructor to set an empty store_source string,
1704 and don't copy the store_source string in a cancel. Hopefully
1705 this will fix Arno's seg fault, bug #744.
1706 kes Add back code to disable conio in configure. Fixes bug #743.
1707 kes Correct the Options scanner in the FD to correctly handle
1708 SHA1 option, which was eating the next option. Reported by
