[arch-dev-public] [signoff] syslog-ng-3.1.0-1
Upstream update. Signoff both. Upstream NEWS 3.1.0 Tue, 16 Mar 2010 17:15:40 +0100 Bugfixes: * Fixed Solaris 10 SMF script to properly handle svcadm refresh requests. * Fixed a possible segmentation fault for unix-dgram/unix-stream destinations on some (non-Linux) platforms. * Fixed processing empty log entries when using the syslog() protocol. * Fixed processing partially received syslog messages. Other changes: * Decrease the frequency of gettimeofday() calls during syslog-ng operation, as gettimeofday() is expensive to call on some platforms. * The SQL destination will only attempt to INSERT a given log message 3 times, and after that it gives up, instead of trying indefinitely. * Tru64 portability fixes. * The functional test program was improved to check the new RFC5424 syslog protocol. 3.1beta2 Fri, 18 Dec 2009 09:19:39 +0100 Bugfixes: * Fixed two major memory leaks, one on input messages, one in patterndb. * Fixed escaped structured data processing. * Fixed expanding SDATA references in templates which have multiple dots in its name (e.g. when an OID is present in the name of the SD param or SD-ID. * pdbtool now correctly zero pads month and day fields in publish date of the merged patterndb file. * pdbtool won't link to unnecessary libraries, which fixes a compilation problem on Solaris with flex installed. 3.1beta1 Sun, 29 Nov 2009 16:25:18 +0100 This is the first public release of syslog-ng Open Source Edition 3.1. syslog-ng 3.1 is the first so called "feature release" of syslog-ng, as such its support period ends when either the next feature (named 3.2) or the next stable (named 4.0) version is published. New features: * Support for patterndb v2 and v3 format, along with a bunch of new parsers: ANYSTRING, IPv6, IPvANY and FLOAT. * Added a new "pdbtool" utility to manage patterndb files: convert them from v1 or v2 format, merge mulitple patterndb files into one and look up matching patterns given a specific message. * Support for message tags: tags can be assigned to log messages as they enter syslog-ng: either by the source driver or via patterndb. Later it these tags can be used for efficient filtering. * Added support for rewriting structured data. * Macros and name-value pairs got a little tighter integration, in filters where syslog-ng 3.0 was limited to only use name-value pairs, with 3.1 you can also use macros. * Enhanced dynamic name-value performance by a factor of three. * Some parsers got additional features: NUMBER is now able to parse hexadecimal numbers, ESTRING is now able to search for multiple characters as the end of the string. * Added non-standard and non-portable facility codes (range 10-15), decouple syslog-ng facility name information from the system used to compile syslog-ng on.
