8.1.5

rsyslog 8.1.5 (v8-devel) released

We have just released 8.1.5 of the v8-devel branch. This release offers some important bug fixes and an enhanced imfile. It now supports inotify and has no longer a fixed limit on the number of files that can be monitored. Note that inotify must be enabled. By default, the previous polling mode is used. For details see parameter “mode” in the doc: http://www.rsyslog.com/doc/imfile.html

Feedback is *very much* appreciated.

Version 8.1.5 [devel] 2014-01-24

imfile now supports inotify (but must be explicitely turned on)
imfile no longer has a limit on number of monitored files
added ProcessInternalMessages global system parameter
This permits to inject rsyslog status messages into *another* main syslogd or the journal.
new dependency: liblogging-stdlog (for submitting to external logger)
bugfix: imuxsock input parameters were not accepted due to copy&paste error. Thanks to Andy Goldstein for the fix.
