Technical notes on version 2.2.x
General:
+Beta Release Version 2.2.10-b2
+03May08
+kes Rework SD acquire for read to handle autochanger Volume
+ swapping.
+kes Implement regression that explicitly tests swapping a Volume
+ from one drive to another.
+kes Enhance disk-changer to detect most error conditions.
+kes Fix SD code so that it properly swaps a Volume between drives.
+ This fixes bug #1083.
+01May08
+kes Prevent a Volume that is being swapped from being freed from
+ the volume list. This will most likely fix, at least partially,
+ bug #1083.
+kes Fix strippath so that it does not get a buffer overrun and crash FD.
+ This fixes bug #1078.
+kes Make inability to change owner/group when creating a dir only a
+ warning rather than an error.
+28Apr08
+ebl Fix SQL query in migration code
+19Apr08
+kes Force unload of volume when wrong volume mounted in SD.
+17Apr08
+kes Fix bat seg fault at termination.
+kes Add Bacula generated version to bat about box.
+
+
+Beta Release Version 2.2.10-b1
+16Apr08
+kes Permit multiple simultaneous restores -- experiment.
+15Apr08
+kes Backport development stream SD reservation system changes.
+ See below:
+===
+16Apr08
+kes Move final volume swapping code to DCR method and
+ call it from acquire_for_read().
+kes When wrong volume is mounted during read, unload_autochanger.
+14Apr08
+kes Stop searching for Volumes in SD askdir if DIR returns the
+ same volume name twice in a row.
+13Apr08
+kes Tweak the swap Volume from one drive to another code so that
+ it now seems to work.
+kes Resolve several problems with recycling that broke the new
+ code (these problems are in 2.2.9 as well).
+kes Remove the volume lock when calling the sysop code.
+kes Don't mark a reserved volume with no writers as unused otherwise
+ jobs fail.
+12Apr08
+kes Rework class structures for VOLRES, DCR, and DEVICE to make
+ the method names a bit more logical, and for more logically
+ handling the responsibilities.
+11Apr08
+kes Remove redundant code in terminating the scheduler that just
+ causes a seg fault in many cases.
+kes Cleanup releasing a volume and make it a DCR method.
+kes Improve algorithm for detecting pre-reserved volume and
+ swapping volumes.
+10Apr08
+kes Tweak volume swapping code so it works.
+kes Correct name overloading in mount.c
+kes Replace released flag in VOLRES with reserved and add access
+ methods for the VOLRES class.
+kes Prevent volume from being released while being swapped.
+kes Refactor parts of stored/mount.c
+09Apr08
+ebl Add sanity checks for VolWriteTime and VolReadTime
+ebl Take care of bad clock changes while computing VolWriteTime
+ and VolReadTime. This should fix or limit #1066
+kes Correct error string numbers in dird/catreq.c
+kes Restructure reserving, acquiring, and mounting volumes. Calls to
+ autochanger are deferred for mount.c -- simplifes the code.
+08Apr08
+kes Do not prune any running job. It just fails the job.
+kes Lock the volumes when changing dev->reserved_device and marking
+ the volume unused otherwise the device can get reserved by
+ another job before the volume is released, thus blocking it.
+===
+
+Beta Release Version 2.2.9-b7
+14Apr08
+kes Close bat console windows first to eliminate error message
+ from the notifier.
+kes Remove useless code in Scheduler that causes seg fault on
+ termination.
+kes Correct some SD catalog request error messages.
+kes Don't allow pruning of any running job.
+kes Turn off code in read_record that causes a seg fault in the SD
+ when reading past an EOS_LABEL.
+kes Turn off unloading the autochanger in reserve.c as it just
+ causes problems.
+kes Lock volumes when unreserving a device.
+kes Do not mark volume unused when recycling.
+kes When acquiring, don't mark volume unused if it is reserved (busy).
+
+Beta Release Version 2.2.9-b6
+06Apr08
+kes Eliminate ./configure warning on po directory
+kes Fix bug #1063, reuse of freed ptr in list nextvol.
+kes Release regex compile buffer in filed/job.c
+kes Add proper type of const char in sql_create.c
+kes Turn off debug in daemon termination routines
+kes Move free_volume_list() before devices are freed in stored.c
+kes Fix reference to uninitalized stack variables in bregex.c.
+ This should correct bug #1067.
+04Apr08
+kes Fix possible seg fault in SD when freeing a volume entry.
+02Apr08
+kes Apply patch from bug #1069 that corrects spurious error messages
+ when ACLs enabled on SGI but no ACL exists.
+ebl Fix a storage deamon segfault at debug level 500.
+
+Beta Release Version 2.2.9-b5 -- not released
+
+Beta Release Version 2.2.9-b4
+01Apr08
+kes Re-enable code to remember last volume mounted on a non-tape
+ Autochanger.
+kes Add patch supplied in bug #1068 that fixes a SD crash when using
+ a Virtual autochanger.
+kes Generate correct JobMedia records during spooling/despooling when
+ running concurrent jobs. Thanks to Tom Ivar Helbekkmo
+ <tih@hamartun.priv.no> for excellent analysis and testing.
+
+Beta releae version 2.2.9-b3
+27Mar08
+kes Rework certain SD locking based on gdb tracebacks of deadlocks
+ sent by Eric. This code now uses only the volume_lock() rather
+ than the reservations lock when at EOM and acquiring a new
+ volume.
+kes Ensure only one exit point in several subroutines.
+
+Beta release version 2.2.9-b2
+24Mar08
+kes Fix to initial tape drive open to release the volume name
+
+Beta Release Version 2.2.9-b1
+22Mar08
+kes Fix to JobMedia fix.
+kes Fix bug pointed out by Peter Much that causes the StorageId to
+ be updated when reading a tape (during migration, it could have
+ been incorrectly set to the write StorageId).
+21Mar08
+kes Implement autostart scripts for Debian
+20Mar08
+kes Fix mtx-changer.in for broken Debian mt program.
+19Mar08
+kes Massive commit of all fixes and back ports to create 2.2.9
+18Mar08
+kes Apply doc fix from bug #1062.
+kes Resolve crash and improper restore wx-console Win32 restore
+ GUI. Fixes bug #1065.
+kes Update Win32 wxWidgets to latest version.
+kes Attempt to do correct handling of Win32 mount points. Should
+ fix bug #1046.
+kes Fix Win32 FD backup/restore memory leak due to improper termination
+ of BackupRead/Write. This fixes bug# 1038.
+kes Add const to AIX prototype for initgroups()
+27Feb08
+kes Undo bug #1047 heap overrun fix as it is not correct.
+14Feb08
+kes Fix creating first JobMedia record during Migration to include
+ proper index. This caused slow restores of migrated jobs.
+10Feb08
+kes Fix bug #1047, which had a heap overrun when stripping certain paths,
+ and do not strip paths on symbolic links.
+kes Set catalog backup database and user name from values specified on
+ the ./configure line.
+ebl Apply patch to correct bug #1031, about wrong pool source information
+ in job report.
+
+Release Version 2.2.8
+25Jan08
+kes Apply patch from Martin to correct bug #1040, bscan sets existing
+ ClientId to zero.
+kes Fixed important spelling error in doc -- bug #1045.
+23Jan08
+kes Move initialization of read/write res lock earlier in the code.
+ This fixes the crash with a null conf file. This fixes bug
+ #1030.
+kes Redefine CURES in lib/parse_conf to be URES and move it all
+ into lib/parse_conf.c -- this responds to bug #1042, but does
+ not fix it. The fix is not to compile with FORTIFY_SOURCE.
+kes Backport fix de-referencing a NULL pointer in the scanner from
+ the trunk SVN. I don't think this was reported as a bug.
+
+Beta release Version 2.2.8
09Jan08
kes Re-enable the new job code editing (%f).
08Jan08
kes Fix existing switch drive SD code to call autochanger to release
any old volume. This must be done to keep the autochanger from
releasing subsequently newly reserved volumes in doing a close().
- This should fix bug #1018.
+ This should possibly fix bugs #1032 and #1018.
kes Apply big backport of current SVN SD code that corrects a number
of race conditions. This is a first step in fixing bug #1018.
