Changelog

Version 6.1.3 [DEVEL] (rgerhards), 2011-02-01

• experimental support for monogodb added
• added $IMUDPSchedulingPolicy and $IMUDPSchedulingPriority config settings
• added $LocalHostName config directive
• improved tcpsrv performance by enabling multiple-entry epoll
  so far, we always pulled a single event from the epoll interface.
  Now 128, what should result in performance improvement (less API
  calls) on busy systems. Most importantly affects imtcp.

• imptcp now supports non-cancel termination mode, a plus in stability
• imptcp speedup: multiple worker threads can now be used to read data
• new directive $InputIMPTcpHelperThreads added
• bugfix: fixed build problems on some platforms
  namely those that have 32bit atomic operations but not 64 bit ones

• bugfix: local hostname was pulled too-early, so that some config
  directives (namely FQDN settings) did not have any effect

• enhanced tcpflood to support multiple sender threads
  this is required for some high-throughput scenarios (and necessary to
  run some performance tests, because otherwise the sender is too slow).

• added some new custom parsers (snare, aix, some Cisco “specialities”)

Version 6.1.1 [DEVEL] (rgerhards), 2010-11-30

• bugfix(important): problem in TLS handling could cause rsyslog to loop in a tight loop, effectively disabling functionality and bearing the
  risk of unresponsiveness of the whole system.
  Bug tracker: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=194
• support for omhdfs officially added (import from 5.7.1)
• merged imuxsock improvements from 5.7.1 (see there)
• support for systemd officially added (import from 5.7.0)
• bugfix: a couple of problems that imfile had on some platforms, namely Ubuntu (not their fault, but occured there)
• bugfix: imfile utilizes 32 bit to track offset. Most importantly, this problem can not experienced on Fedora 64 bit OS (which has
  64 bit long’s!)
• a number of other bugfixes from older versions imported

Version 5.7.2  [V5-DEVEL] (rgerhards), 2010-11-26

• bugfix(important): problem in TLS handling could cause rsyslog to loop in a tight loop, effectively disabling functionality and bearing the risk of unresponsiveness of the whole system.Bug tracker: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=194
• bugfix: imfile state file was not written when relative file name for it was specified
• bugfix: compile failed on systems without epoll_create1()Thanks to David Hill for providing a fix.
• bugfix: atomic increment for msg object may not work correct on all platforms. Thanks to Chris Metcalf for the patch
• bugfix: replacements for atomic operations for non-int sized types had problems. At least one instance of that problem could potentially lead to abort (inside omfile).
