+ Technical notes on version 2.5.x
-Released as 1.38.0 28Oct05:
-
-Changes to 1.37.42:
-26Oct05
-- Don't overwrite pthreadVCE.dll or msvcr71.dll during Win32
- install.
-- Update README.win32 instructions.
-25Oct05
-- Make db_get_job_record() return Name so that the ACL
- can be checked. Fixes bug #446
-22Oct05
-- Insure that all the SD tools init the Autochanger
- resources.
-
-Changes to 1.37.41:
-22Oct05
-- Print error message if no Changer Command found.
-- Apply fix from Martin Simmons to clear structure before
- using it in IPADDR -- fixes a bind() bug on AIX.
-14Oct05
-- Add NetBSD fstype patch from Geert Hendrickx <ghen@telenet.be>
-- Update num_parts only when writing to DVD.
-13Oct05
-- Fix error conditions in bpipe.c DVD routine (terminate buffer).
-- Use a bigger buffer 32K as suggested by Arno in bpipe.c.
-- Increase dvd mount timeout with patch from Arno.
-- Modify DVD code so that it keeps a state flag that indicates
- when the freespace variable is valid. freespace_errno, now has
- either 0 or an errno. There are no negative errnos.
-- Create is_freespace_ok() to test state flag. Also, set_freespace_ok()
- and clear_freespace_ok(). Modify code to use them. This
- simplifies a bit the logic of the freespace code.
-- Edit 64bit debug values correctly in dvd.c
-- Fix %e variable to check num_parts rather than part.
-- Use static buffer instead of static buffers for FI_to_ascii()
- and stream_to_ascii() debug routines in SD. This is to prevent
- possible race conditions between two threads (possibly Phil's
- unmount problem).

- is intended to be used in the tree routines to get a
- machine readable output for GUIs like wx-console.

+05Jul08
+kes Apply Eric's patch to ensure that autoprune does not return
+ a Volume not in the autochanger unless requested to do so.
+kes Correct bat restore display of multiple drives. This fixes
+ bug #1117.

+kes Make watchdog connect timeout queue messages rather than sending
+ directly to avoid lock conflicts with the real thread.
+kes Add const char in dbd.c to avoid compiler warnings.
+kes Fix python compiler string warning. Note, IMO the GNU C++
+ compiler guys have made a *very* bad change to their compiler.
+ They now force all strings to be 'const' unless you explicitly
+ cast them, which is extremely ugly and ruins nice code as well
+ as creates a lot of useless work.
+02Jul08
+kes Fix mtx-changer to detect both versions of Ubuntu (Debian)
+ mt. This fixes bug #1116.
+kes Add const in python files to reduce compiler warnings.
+ This may have to be backed out because of later compiler
+ strict checking.
+kes Fix failure of 2drive-concurrent-test. Always read label;
+ clear_unload() only after drive is defined in acquire_for_read().
+27Jun08
+kes Generally clean up the manual tape loading code. The main
+ conceptual change is that when a volume is marked to be unloaded,
+ its volume name is retained, and it is only marked as unloaded
+ when either the autoloader says it is unloaded or another tape
+ is read on that drive.
+25Jun08
+kes Add debug code and refactor subroutine in stored/mount.c
+kes Fix format problem in bscan output reported in bug #1105.

+ overrides are kept. This should fix bug #1094.

+ loading it.

+ebl Fix autoselect option broken for a while. Fix #1089. Need some
+ work with StorageId to be able to use a particular drive in a
+ autochanger.
+09Jun08
+ebl Rename vtape to vtape.
+ebl Update vtape driver.
+08Jun08
+ebl Modify vtape driver to avoid sparse file.

+ About 40MB for my Linux system (400.000 files)
+14Mar08
+kes Add dcr->reserved_volume flag that allows us to release a volume
+ even if it is not vol->released. This allows maxvol2 to work when
+ Volumes expire and we are already writing to the device (i.e. a
+ volume is pulled out from under us by another job terminating after
+ we reserve the drive).
+13Mar08
+ebl Permit multiple command/console per runscript definition.

+ database driver.
+kes Add patch from Martin Schmid scm@apsag.com that checks to see if

+kes Tweak plugin code.
+17Feb08
+kes Plugin debug code + tweak a couple bat dialog layouts

- in spool.c. Don't let a -1 slip in as size.
+Release 2.1.22 beta
+26Jun07
+kes Dirk committed the qwt library code for drawing graphs in bat.
+kes Tweak install of qwt so that it is integrated with ./configure.
+25Jun07
+kes Fix HAVE_BATCH_INSERT to be HAVE_BATCH_FILE_INSERT, pointed
+ out by Eric (my typo).
+ebl Fix configure.in to get batch mode enable
+kes Return correct string from authenticate.cpp in bat when connecting
+ to Dir.
+kes Apply patch suggested by Frank Sweetser to fix bug #888 --
+ spurious line drops when using TLS.
+kes Do not file reparse points when restoring a file that already
+ exists -- Win32.
+24Jun07
+kes Implement Windows reparse points -- similar to directories, but
+ we do not descend into it. This is a first cut. They seem to
+ be backed up, but restore is not yet tested.
+kes Remove restore_blocking in tls code when shutting a socket to leave
+ it in blocking mode. Hopefully this will fix the encryption bug
+ reported by Frank Sweetser.
+kes When opening a file for backup, tell the OS that we are going to
+ read it sequentially -- optimization.

-Changes to 1.37.7:
-15Mar05
-- Apply NetBSD patch from kardel in bug 258.
-14Mar05
-- Add a second job and a second client to the default
- bacula-dir.conf file.
-- Remove old style Include/Excludes.
-- Fix ANSI labels to put EOF1 and EOF2 after each file mark.
-- Add Python to SD and FD.
-12Mar05
-- Implement IBM labels
-- Implement EOF and EOV labels at the end of a volume.
-- Fix a rather ugly problem with the PoolId not getting
- passed correctly. Now the DIR passes the Pool name and
- Media Type to the SD, who passes them back when requesting
- the next Volume. The DIR then looks up the correct PoolId.
- This takes more time, but always works, AND allows wild
- card Media Types (i.e. the SD can decide).
-- The DIR <==> SD protocol has changed.
+Release: 2.1.20 beta
+20Jun07
+kes Fixed bug #886 (multidrive autochanger: SD doesn't use drive with
+ loaded tape but uses first drive).

+ Probably caused a crash.
+kes Inhibit missing encryption signature error messages for
+ file types where no signature computed.
+kes Correct inverted check on autochanger in reservation system.
+kes Tweak debug code in autochanger reservation.
+18Jun07
+kes Add some additional locking in the cats directory in subroutines
+ that modify packet variables called from batch insert.
+kes Rework how dcrs are allocated. new_dcr() can now be called
+ with an existing pointer, and it will simply clean it up.
+ This allows the reservation system to test various different
+ devices, and will permit easy device changes.
+kes A bunch of changes all over to handle new new_dcr() calling
+ sequence.
+kes Work more on the Volume management in the SD. Remember Volumes
+ for tape drives and for autochangers (even virtual disk changers).
+kes When looking at the Volume list to reserve a drive, handle
+ autochanger names correctly by interating through the changer
+ devices. Also call the Director to see if a Volume is suitable
+ for the current job.
+kes Fix some bugs in bscan. Make sure all media records are written.
+ Make sure that valid JobMedia records are written for disk files.
+ Previously they were completely wrong.
+kes Move source tar files for depkgs-mingw32 to www.bacula.org so
+ that the URLs don't change and so that the developers will all
+ work off the same copy. Rebuild from scrach.
+kes Upgrade Win32 SQLite3 from 3.3.8 to 3.3.17.

- when an EOF is just read. This is now used most everywhere
- in the code.
-07Feb05
-- Added code to detect that no files were inserted into the

-- Added Label Type = ANSI|IBM|Bacula to Device resource in SD.
- If this is set, it will force writing of the appropriate
- label type.
-- Added Check Labels = yes|no to Device resource in SD. If this
- is set, Bacula will check for ANSI labels and accept them,

- to get SQLite3.
-- Add target for running qemu to boot Rescue CDROM
-- Add code to support kernel 2.6 in Rescue CDROM -- does NOT yet
- boot correctly.
-- Implement ANSI labels -- not yet tested.
- This required changes to DB format. No upgrade script yet.
- Note, more work needed to modify "update" command to handle
- changing label types, also must restrict volume name lengths
- to 6 characters.
-- Add new Device, Storage, and MediaType records to DB. No
- upgrade script yet.
-- Add MediaType to bsr file record types. Not yet used in SD.
-- Permit multiple device specifications in Storage resource in
- Dir conf file.
-- Implement Device resources. Director requests Device resource
- info from SD on startup.
-- Note!!!! DIR->SD incompatible with previous versions.
-- Remove multiple Storage definitions in Job resource. One can
- still specify multiple Storage resources, but they all go into
- a single alist, and imply sending data to each Storage daemon
- simultaneously.
-- Implement Device query command between DIR and SD.
-- Allow DIR to "reserve" a Device. It will then be acquired
- when the FD connects to the SD.
-- Turn all DIR resources into classes, and implement a few class
- methods -- more to come.
-- Turn DEVICE in SD into a class, and implement a number of inline
- class methods -- more to come.

-- Added edit_int64()
-- Reworked and tested a bit the htable routines.
-- Major changes to SD acquire.c -- DIR can now reserve devices. Needs
- lots of testing!!!!
-- Made a special state code for DVD -- this simplifies the logic
- of the code, but I probably broke it. Testing needed!!!!
-- Add AutoChanger resource to SD, but not yet used.
+Cut: 2.1.14 beta (not released)
+14Jun07
+kes Do not free a volume on a tape drive until another volume is

+ should definitely fix the problem of lost error messages in the
+ encryption code.
+kes Remove over zellous addition of FSFE copyright in a few eggxxx files.
+kes Eliminate tcpd.h from the project. Enclose the #include from the
+ library with extern C ...

+kes Fix a seg fault in the PostgreSQL driver dereferencing a NULL pointer.
+03Jun07
+kes Implement SQLITE3_INIT_QUERY in version.h that can do an initial
+ query for SQLite3. Use it to set PRAGMA synchronous = OFF. This
+ makes SQLit3 run 30 times faster, though a bit less safe.

+02Jun07
+kes Fix Bacula PostgreSQL buffer overruns.
+kes Do better checking for NULL results returned from PostgreSQL;
+ implement retry for failed queries; clear results buffer after
+ failed query. Hopefully this will correct the PostgreSQL failures.

+kes Implement algorithm to handle only one appendable volume with
+ Prefer Mounted Volumes = no.
+kes Fix a Bacula PostgreSQL bug dereferencing a NULL pointer

+ unique.
+kes Change the name of gnome-console to bgnome-console to make it
+ more Bacula unique.
+14Apr07
+kes Some time in March, a Feature Request with patch from Jorj Bauer
+ <jorj@seas.upenn.edu> was committed by Landon (with my approval).
+ It implements:
+ The ability for the director to validate a Client (FD) CN against
+ an arbitrary set of patterns rather than the hostname, with
+ A new 'TLS Allowed CN' set of directives which are implemented
+ in the Client resource. Then pattern matching is used in place

+ The FD will do an extra check (stat(2)) after
+ each file backup. mtime, ctime and size are compared with
+ 'before backup' information. If time or size mismatch, an

+ previous change (probably the recent TLS patch).
+23Mar07
+kes Write new subroutine is_volume_purged() that explicitly checks
+ if the Volume is purged, and if so marks it as such. This should
+ resolve problems reported about needing to mount twice to recycle
+ volumes.
+kes Rewrite pruning algorithm to do more work in the SQL engine, and
+ to pass a list of JobIds to be deleted to SQL. Also, minimize the
+ amount of duplicated code.
+kes Do volume pruning only for the Media Type desired (reduces pruning time
+ if multiple Media Types are in the same pool).
+kes Implement more detailed info in the Job report for the Bacula version
+ and architecture.

+kes Modify bnet_connect() so that it uses time() to check for the
+ wait time expiring (on some OSes, some system calls may not
+ return immediately).
+kes Modify Verify to obtain the previous JobId when it is actually
+ running rather than at schedule time (as it was in 1.38.x).
+kes Fix src/job.c to handle MaxWaitTime correctly. This should

+ the same as ours. This occurs on IRIX after a system crash.
+ Fixes bug #797.

+kes Apply patch from bug #612 by Rudolf Cejka to speedup pruning
+ in the case of orphaned records.
+kes Modify dbcheck to handle orphaned JobMedia, Path, Filename,
+ and File records in 300K chunks to be more efficient. This
+ idea came from Juan Luis Frances (if I remember right).
+kes Apply Eric's scratch patch that moves a purged Volume to
+ the RecyclePool. Question: how is RecyclePool set? what
+ happens to the ScratchPool?
+kes Apply Eric's media patch that collects read/write media
+ times as well as byte counts. This patch requires a
+ simultaneous upgrade of the DIR and SD. Note, there
+ should be some way to turn off timing. I'm not sure
+ times are in Bacula units.
+kes Apply Eric's batch-insert patch.
+09Feb07
+kes Update projects list.
+08Feb07
+kes Implement Include/Exclude file lists in FD as dlists using

+ console is authorized to cancel the job. This fixes bug
+ #767.
+kes Modify SD so that the VolCatJobs medium record is updated
+ at the beginning of a Job rather than the end. This
+ fixes bug #775 where exceeding MaxVolJobs caused jobs
+ to fail.

+kes Fix memory leak with storage ids in cats/sql_get.c
+kes Terminate watchdog earlier to avoid reference to released
+ memory -- reported by Jason Austin.
+kes Move closing the database from jobq.c to the director daemon
+ termination routine. This fixes memory leaks for shadow jobs
+ (i.e. migration jobs).
+kes Free up the unique jobid chain items in migrate.c. This fixes
+ a memory leak problem.
+kes Convert some ugly looking for statements to use foreach_alist
+ in findlib/find.c. This will facilitate converting the structures
+ to use dlist (for large include/exclude lists).
+kes Fix a bug in the btree.c and btree.h routines, then rename them
+ rblist and add them to be built in src/lib. Include some new
+ methods written by Rudolf Cejka that make the code more readable
+ (hides some of the ugly casting).
+kes Add set_next() and set_prev() methods which make the code much more
+ readable. Also add a new dlistString class that facilitates storing
+ strings in dlists. To be used in the large include/exclude lists.
+kes Make some trivial modifications to lib/tree.h that use rblist
+ rather than dlist for storing the tree links. This was suggested
