Changelog for 5.9.5 (v5-devel)

By adisconteamPosted on Posted in ChangelogTagged , , , , ,

Version 5.9.5 [V5-DEVEL], 2012-01-27

  • improved impstats subsystem, added many new counters
  • enhanced module loader to not rely on PATH_MAX
  • refactored imklog linux driver, now combined with BSD driver
    The Linux driver no longer supports outdated kernel symbol resolution,
    which was disabled by default for very long. Also overall cleanup,
    resulting in much smaller code. Linux and BSD are now covered by a
    single small driver.
  • $IMUXSockRateLimitInterval DEFAULT CHANGED, was 5, now 0
    The new default turns off rate limiting. This was chosen as people
    experienced problems with rate-limiting activated by default. Now it
    needs an explicit opt-in by setting this parameter.
    Thanks to Chris Gaffney for suggesting to make it opt-in; thanks to
    many unnamed others who already had complained at the time Chris made
    the suggestion ;-)

rsyslog 5.9.5 (v5-devel) released

By adisconteamPosted on Posted in News, Release AnnouncementTagged , , , , ,

This release brings many additional statistics counters and a couple of bug fixes. Note that the default setting of $IMUxSockRateLimitInterval was changed to 0, as rate limiting seems to have caused more trouble than it was worth. To enable it, simply set it to 200, the previous default.
