- update to 7.2.7 [v7-stable] 2013-04-17:
  - rsyslogd startup information is now properly conveyed back to init
    when privileges are beging dropped. Actually, we have moved
    termination of the parent in front of the priv drop. So it shall
    work now in all cases. See code comments in commit for more details.
  - If forking, the parent now waits for a maximum of 60 seconds for
    termination by the child
  - improved debugging support in forked (auto-backgrounding) mode.
    The rsyslog debug log file is now continued to be written across the
    fork.
  - updated systemd files to match current systemd source
  - bugfix: failover/action suspend did not work correctly
    This was experienced if the retry action took more than one second
    to complete. For suspending, a cached timestamp was used, and if the
    retry took longer, that timestamp was already in the past. As a
    result, the action never was kept in suspended state, and as such no
    failover happened. The suspend functionalit now does no longer use
    the cached timestamp (should not have any performance implication,
    as action suspend occurs very infrequently).
  - bugfix: nested if/prifilt conditions did not work properly
    closes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=415
  - bugfix: script == comparison did not work properly on JSON objects
    [backport from 7.3 branch]
  - bugfix: imudp scheduling parameters did affect main thread, not imudp
    closes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=409
  - bugfix: imuxsock rate-limiting could not be configured via legacy conf
    Rate-limiting for the system socket could not be configured via legacy
    configuration directives. However, the new-style RainerScript config
    options worked.
    Thanks to Milan Bartos for the patch.
    closes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=390
  - bugfix: using group resolution could lead to endless loop
    Thanks to Tomas Heinrich for the patch.
    closes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=310
  - bugfix: $mmnormalizeuseramsg paramter was specified with wrong type
    Thank to Renzhong Zhang for alerting us of the problem.
    closes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=420
  - bugfix: RainerScript getenv() function caused segfault when var was
    not found.
    Thanks to Philippe Muller for the patch.
  - bugfix: several issues in imkmsg
    see bug tracker: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=421#c8
  - bugfix: imuxsock was missing SysSock.ParseTrusted module parameter
    To use that functionality, legacy rsyslog.conf syntax had to be used.
    Also, the doc was missing information on the "ParseTrusted" set of
    config directives.
  - bugfix: parameter action.execOnlyWhenPreviousIsSuspended was
    accidently of integer-type. For obvious reasons, it needs to be
    boolean. Note that this change can break existing configurations
    if they circumvented the problem by using 0/1 values.
  - doc bugfix: rsyslog.conf man page had invalid file format info
    closes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=418
- update to 7.2.6 [v7-stable] 2013-03-05:
  - slightly improved config parser error messages when invalid escapes
    happen
  - bugfix: include files got included in the wrong order
    closes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=411
    This happens if an $IncludeConfig directive was done on multiple
    files (e.g. the distro default of $IncludeConfig /etc/rsyslog.d/*.conf).
    In that case, the order of include file processing is reversed, which
    could lead to all sorts of problems.
    Thanks to Nathan Stratton Treadway for his great analysis of the
    problem, which made bug fixing really easy.
  - bugfix: omelasticsearch failed when authentication data was provided
    ... at least in most cases it emitted an error message:
    "snprintf failed when trying to build auth string"
    Thanks to Joerg Heinemann for alerting us.
    closes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=404
  - bugfix: some property-based filter were incorrectly parsed
    This usually lead to a syntax error on startup and rsyslogd not actually
    starting up. The problem was the regex, which did not care for double
    quote characters to follow in the action part - unfortunately something
    that can frequently happen with v6+ format. An example:
    :programname, isequal, "as" {action(type="omfile" ...) }
    Here, the part 
    :programname, isequal, "as" {action(type="omfile"
    was treated as the property filter, and the rest as action part.
    Obviously, this did not work out. Unfortunately, such situations usually
    resulted in very hard to understand error messages.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Apr 16 08:49:49 UTC 2013 - mt@suse.de

- Fixed service file to pass $RSYSLOGD_PARAMS to rsyslogd again.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun Apr 14 06:35:09 UTC 2013 - crrodriguez@opensuse.org

- Fix systemd units to do exactly what is documented as 
 required --> http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/syslog
 In particular, it must not mess with the ordering of syslog.target
 this is done by removing the custom unit and adapting the upstream
 one with openSUSE additions (rsyslog-unit.patch)

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Mar 29 11:53:49 UTC 2013 - vcizek@suse.com

- restore SELinux label when creating xconsole (bnc#812447)

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Feb 19 16:25:03 UTC 2013 - mt@suse.de

- Fixed rsyslog.service file to support reload (bnc#803994)

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Jan 15 09:35:07 UTC 2013 - mt@suse.de

- Fixed relp build requires change, which broke SLE-11 build.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Jan 14 21:59:15 UTC 2013 - andreas.stieger@gmx.de

- update to 7.2.5 [v7-stable]:
  - build system cleanup
  - bugfix: omelasticsearch did not properly compile on some platforms
    due to missing libmath
  - bugfix: on termination, actions were incorrectly called
  - bugfix: very large memory consumption (and probably out of memory) when
    FromPos was specified in template, but ToPos not.
  - bugfix: timeval2syslogTime cause problems on some platforms
    due to invalid assumption on structure data types.
  - bugfix: compile errors in im3195
  - bugfix: doGetFileCreateMode() had invalid validity check
  - bugfix: mmjsonparse errornously returned action error when no 
    CEE cookie was present.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Jan  9 14:05:53 UTC 2013 - mt@suse.com

- Enable rsyslog.service and create the syslog.service alias link
  in post install -- regardless of a preset config (bnc#790805).
- Check the existence of /etc/init.d/syslog script before calling
  the restart_on_update and stop_on_removal macros to avoid errors
  on update. Since openSUSE 12.3, no syslog init script is shipped
  (bnc#790298,bnc#750478).

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Jan  7 10:58:19 UTC 2013 - mt@suse.com

- Update to 7.2.4 [v7-stable] with following changes:
  - enhance: permit RFC3339 timestamp in local log socket messages
    Thanks to Sebastien Ponce for the patch.
  - imklog: added ParseKernelTimestamp parameter (import from 5.10.2)
    Thanks to Marius Tomaschewski for the patch.
  - fix missing functionality: ruleset(){} could not specify ruleset queue
    The "queue.xxx" parameter set was not supported, and legacy ruleset
    config statements did not work (by intention). The fix introduces the
    "queue.xxx" parameter set. It has some regression potential, but only
    for the new functionality. Note that using that interface it is possible
    to specify duplicate queue file names, which will cause trouble. This
    will be solved in v7.3, because there is a too-large regression
    potential for the v7.2 stable branch.
  - imklog: added KeepKernelTimestamp parameter (import from 5.10.2)
    Thanks to Marius Tomaschewski for the patch.
  - bugfix: imklog mistakenly took kernel timestamp subseconds as nanoseconds
    ... actually, they are microseconds. So the fractional part of the 
    timestamp was not properly formatted. (import from 5.10.2)
    Thanks to Marius Tomaschewski for the bug report and the patch idea.
  - bugfix: supportoctetcountedframing parameter did not work in imptcp
  - bugfix: modules not (yet) supporting new conf format were not properly
    registered. This lead to a "module not found" error message instead of
    the to-be-expected "module does not support new style" error message.
    That invalid error message could be quite misleading and actually stop
    people from addressing the real problem (aka "go nuts" ;))
  - bugfix: template "type" parameter is mandatory (but was not)
  - bugfix: some message properties could be garbled due to race condition
    This happened only on very high volume systems, if the same message was
    being processed by two different actions. This was a regression caused
    by the new config processor, which did no longer properly enable msg
    locking in multithreaded cases. The bugfix is actually a refactoring of
    the msg locking code - we no longer do unlocked operations, as the use
    case for it has mostly gone away. It is potentially possible only at
    very low-end systems, and there the small additional overhead of doing
    the locking does not really hurt. Instead, the removal of that 
    capability can actually slightly improve performance in common cases,
    as the code path is smaller and requires slightly less memory writes.
    That probably outperforms the extra locking overhead (which in the 
    low-end case always happens in user space, without need for kernel
    support as we can always directly aquire the lock - there is no
    contention at all).
- Removed imklog-kernel-timestamp-parsing (bnc#783967) patch obsoleted
  by this version.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Nov 23 01:28:46 UTC 2012 - mrueckert@suse.de

- fix zeromq support

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Nov 23 01:01:01 UTC 2012 - mrueckert@suse.de

- fix hiredis support

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Nov 22 23:44:27 UTC 2012 - mrueckert@suse.de

- enabled elastic search support (build enabled by default):
  -> new buildrequires curl devel
  -> new subpackage rsyslog-module-elasticsearch
- added --enable-unlimited-select
- added --enable-imttcp:
  -> this module is packaged in the main package as it has no
     new dependencies
- added --enable-imdiag
  -> this module is packaged in the diag package
- prepared adding support for hiredis, hdfs, mongodb and zeromq

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Nov 22 14:12:36 UTC 2012 - mt@suse.com

- Update to 7.2.3 (v7-stable) a release providing following fixes:
  - regression fix: rsyslogd terminated when wild-card $IncludeConfig did not
    find actual include files. For example, if this directive is present:
    $IncludeConfig /etc/rsyslog.d/*.conf
    and there are no *.conf files in /etc/rsyslog.d (but rsyslog.d exists),
    rsyslogd will emit an error message and terminate. Previous (and expected)
    behaviour is that an empty file set is no problem. HOWEVER, if the
    directory itself does not exist, this is flagged as an error and will
    load to termination (no startup).
    Unfortunately, this is often the case by default in many distros, so this
    actually prevents rsyslog startup.
  - doc improvements
  - enabled to build without libuuid, at loss of uuid functionality
    this enables smoother builds on older systems that do not support
    libuuid. Loss of functionality should usually not matter too much as
    uuid support has only recently been added and is very seldom used.
  - bugfix: omfwd did not properly support "template" parameter
  - bugfix: potential segfault when re_match() function was used
    Thanks to oxpa for the patch.
    closes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=371
  - bugfix: potential abort of imtcp on rsyslogd shutdown
  - bugfix: imzmq3 segfault with PULL subscription
    Thanks to Martin Nilsson for the patch.
  - bugfix: improper handling of backslash in string-type template()s
  - bugfix: leading quote (") in string-type template() lead to thight loop
    on startup
  - bugfix: no error msg on invalid field option in legacy/string template
  - bugfix: potential segfault due to invalid param handling in comparisons
    This could happen in RainerScript comparisons (like contains); in some
    cases an unitialized variable was accessed, which could lead to an
    invalid free and in turn to a segfault.
    closes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=372
    Thanks to Georgi Georgiev for reporting this bug and his great help
    in solving it.
  - bugfix: no error msg on unreadable $IncludeConfig path
  - bugfix: $IncludeConfig did not correctly process directories
    closes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=376
    The testbench was also enhanced to check for these cases.
    Thanks to Georgi Georgiev for the bug report.
  - bugfix: make rsyslog compile on kfreebsd again
    closes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=380
    Thanks to Guillem Jover for the patch.
  - bugfix: garbled message if field name was used with jsonf property option
    The length for the field name was invalidly computed, resulting in either
    truncated field names or including extra random data. If the random data
    contained NULs, the rest of the message became unreadable.
    closes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=374
  - bugfix: potential segfault at startup with property-based filter
    If the property name was followed by a space before the comma, rsyslogd
    aborted on startup. Note that no segfault could happen if the initial
    startup went well (this was a problem with the config parser).
    closes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=381
  - bugfix: imfile discarded some file parts
    File lines that were incomplete (LF missing) *at the time imfile polled
    the file* were partially discarded. That part of the line that was read 
    without the LF was discarded, and the rest of the line was submitted in
    the next polling cycle. This is now changed so that the partial content
    is saved until the complete line is read. Note that the patch affects
    only read mode 0.
    Thanks to Milan Bartos for providing the base idea for the solution.
- Merged also fixes for unreliable kernel timestamp regression (bnc#783967),
  which will be picked up in a later v7-stable release:
  - imklog: added $klogParseKernelTimestamp option (default off),
    wich reverts to the 5.8.x behavior to use receive time for the
    kernel messages instead to try parse and convert the kernel
    timestamp, what is not reliable on some hardware (intel i7/Xeon).
  - imklog: added $klogKeepKernelTimestamp option (default off),
    causing to not remove the kernel timestamp from the message
    after a successful conversion.
  - imklog: fixed a conversion bug causing a <1sec incorrectness
    of the message time when the kernel timestamp is parsed.
- Removed {} arround RSYSLOG_PARAMS variable in service file. systemd
  seems sometimes to not like it any more (bnc#788330).

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Nov 20 11:44:16 UTC 2012 - mt@suse.com

- Require syslog-service >= 2.0 on 12.3, otherwise < 2.0, which
  contain the /etc/init.d/syslog init script.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Nov 13 10:31:24 UTC 2012 - mt@suse.com

- imuxsock: do not log EAGAIN in nonblocking recvfrom (bnc#734672)

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Nov 12 17:21:43 UTC 2012 - mt@suse.com

- Removed handling of the -c <compat version> option which is
  obsolete in rsyslog-7.x.
- Fixed build requires / deps to work on 12.x and SLE-11-SP2.
- Initialized RSYSLOG_PARAMS env variable in service file.
- Marked additional log socket config as ghost.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Nov  9 13:38:35 UTC 2012 - mt@suse.com

- Readded things removed in previous change, that is compat version
  and params variable use, generation of additional (chroot) log
  sockets include file, xconsole handling in rsyslog.service.
- Fixed liblognorm conditional build flag dependencies, removed all
  suse version dependencies.
- Changed to install in /usr/sbin, compatibility link in /sbin.
- Added klogd to build conflicts to resolve build service deps

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Nov  6 12:36:54 UTC 2012 - tittiatcoke@gmail.com

- Enabled rsyslog own systemd service file. This to resolve the
  current issue with a non starting system logger with systemd 185.
  (see also bnc#788330)

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Oct 29 15:39:26 UTC 2012 - mt@suse.com

- Update to 7.2.1 (v7-stable), a pure bug-fixing release: 
  - bugfix: ruleset()-object did only support a single statement
  - added -D rsyslogd option to enable config parser debug mode
  - improved syntax error messages by outputting the error token
  - the rsyslog core now suspeneds actions after 10 failures in
    a row. This was former the case after 1,000 failures and could
    cause rsyslog to be spammed/ressources misused.
    See the v6 compatibility doc for more details.
  - ommongodb rate-limits error messages to prevent spamming the
    syslog closes (for v7.2):
    http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=366
- Enabled compilation of kmsg, the kernel’s new structured logging
  system modile, mmaudit the message modification module supporting
  Linux audit format and mmjsonparse providing the cee-enhanced
  syslog format support message modification module.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Oct 24 15:01:53 UTC 2012 - mt@suse.com

- Update to 7.2.0 (v7-stable) a full structured-logging/CEE enabled
  version which provides following features compared to v5-stable:
  * greatly improved configuration language – the new language is
    much more intuitive than the legacy format. It will also prevent
    some typical mistakes simply be not permitting these invalid
    constructs. Note that legacy format is still fully supported
    (and you can of course do the same mistakes if you use legacy
    format).
  * greatly improved execution engine – with nested if/then/else
    constructs as well as the capability to modify variables during
    processing.
  * full support for structured logging and project lumberjack/CEE.
    this includes everything from being able to create, interpret
    and handle JSON-based structured log messages, including the
    ability to normalize legacy text log messages.
  * more plugins – like support for MongoDB, HDFS, and ElasticSearch
    as well as for the kernel’s new structured logging system.
  * higher performance – many optimizations all over the code, like
    5 to 10 times faster execution time for script-based filters,
    enhanced multithreaded TCP input plugin, DNS cache and many more.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Oct 17 14:13:38 UTC 2012 - mt@suse.com

- Use RFC-5424 conform log format with RFC-3339 high-precision
  timestamps by default, removed obsolete rsyslog.early.conf.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Sep 24 17:58:16 UTC 2012 - andreas.stieger@gmx.de

- prevent installation with other providers of syslog (bnc#780608)

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Sep 21 08:09:46 UTC 2012 - mt@suse.com

- Changed default /etc/rsyslog.conf we install to not use multiple
  facilities with the same priority pattern in one statement using
  the comma operator. This started to cause a start failure with
  rsyslog-6.4.x (bnc#780607) and seems to be a bug in rsyslog.
  Upstream report http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=358,
  switched to use alternative syntax using semicolon separator.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Sep 20 21:39:48 UTC 2012 - andreas.stieger@gmx.de

- update to 6.4.2  [V6-STABLE] 2012-09-20:

    started
  - bugfix: remove invalid socket option call from imuxsock
  - bugfix: missing support for escape sequences in RainerScript
  - bugfix: config validation run did not always return correct 
    return state

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Sep 20 21:20:17 UTC 2012 - andreas.stieger@gmx.de

- add rsyslog-6.4.1-CheckConnection-no-return-in-nonvoid-function.patch
  to fix rsyslog no-return-in-nonvoid-function netstrm.c:258 in
  CheckConnection()

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Sep 17 12:13:04 UTC 2012 - mt@suse.com

- Update to 6.4.1  [V6-STABLE] 2012-09-06:
  - bugfix: multiple main queues with same queue file name were not
    detected.  This lead to queue file corruption. While the root
    cause is a config error, it is a bug that this important and
    hard to find config error was not detected by rsyslog.
  - bugfix: “jsonf” property replacer option did generate invalid
    JSON in JSON, we have “fieldname”:”value”, but the option
    emitted “fieldname”=”value”. Interestingly, this was accepted
    by a couple of sinks, most importantly elasticsearch. Now the
    correct format is emitted, which causes a remote chance that
    some things that relied on the wrong format will break.
    Thanks to Miloslav Trmač for the patch
  - change $!all-json did emit an empty (thus non-JSON) string if
    no libee data was present. It now emits {} and thus valid JSON.
    There is a small risk that this may break some things that
    relied on the previous inconsistency. Thanks to Miloslav Trmač
    for the patch
  - bugfix: omusrsmsg incorrect return state & config warning
    handling. During config file processing, Omusrmsg often
    incorrectly returned a warning status, even when no warning was
    present (caused by uninitialized variable). Also, the core
    handled warning messages incorrectly, and treated them as
    errors. As a result, omusrmsg (most often) could not properly be
    loaded. Note that this only occurs with legacy config action
    syntax. This was a regression caused by an incorrect merge in to
    the 6.3.x codebase.
    Thanks to Stefano Mason for alerting us of this bug.
  - bugfix: Fixed TCP CheckConnection handling in omfwd.c. Interface
    needed to be changed in lower stream classes. Syslog TCP Sending
    is now resumed properly. Unfixed, that lead to non-detection of
    downstate of remote hosts.

- Updated to 5.8.11 [V5-stable] 2012-05-03:
  - bugfix: ommysql did not properly init/exit the mysql runtime
    library this could lead to segfaults. Triggering condition:
    multiple action instances using ommysql. Thanks to Tomas
    Heinrich for reporting this problem and providing an initial
    patch (which my solution is based on, I need to add more code
    to clean the mess up).
  - bugfix: rsyslog did not terminate when delayable inputs were
    blocked due to unvailable sources. Fixes:
    http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=299
    Thanks to Marcin M for bringing up this problem and Andre
    Lorbach for helping to reproduce and fix it.
  - bugfix: active input in “light delay state” could block
    rsyslog termination, at least for prolonged period of time
  - bugfix: imptcp input name could not be set. Config directive
    was accepted, but had no effect
    bugfix: assigned ruleset was lost when using disk queues
    This looked quite hard to diagnose for disk-assisted queues,
    as the pure memory part worked well, but ruleset info was lost
    for messages stored inside the disk queue.
  - bugfix: hostname was not requeried on HUP
    Thanks to Per Jessen for reporting this bug and Marius
    Tomaschewski for his help in testing the fix.
  - bugfix: inside queue.c, some thread cancel states were not
    correctly reset. While this is a bug, we assume it did have
    no practical effect because the reset as it was done was set
    to the state the code actually had at this point. But better
    fix this…
- Removed obsolete requery hostname patch

-------------------------------------------------------------------

    closes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=313
    improves interop with systemd journal

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Feb 20 15:33:05 UTC 2012 - mt@suse.com

- Detect if we have to use the new /run/systemd/journal/syslog
  socket instead of the /dev/log under newer systemd versions.
  Obsoletes listen.conf installed by systemd (bnc#747871).
- updated to 5.8.7 [V5-stable]:
  - bugfix: instabilities when using RFC5424 header fields
    Thanks to Kaiwang Chen for the patch
  - bugfix: imuxsock did truncate part of received message if it did
    not contain a proper date. The truncation occured because we
    removed that part of the messages that was expected to be the date.
    closes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=295
  - bugfix: potential abort after reading invalid X.509 certificate
    closes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=290
    Thanks to Tomas Heinrich for the patch
  - bugfix: stats counter were not properly initialized on creation
  - FQDN hostname for multihomed host was not always set to the correct
    name if multiple aliases existed. Thanks to Tomas Heinreich for the
    patch.
- updated to 5.8.6 [V5-stable]:
  - bugfix: missing whitespace after property-based filter was not
    detected
  - bugfix: $OMFileFlushInterval period was doubled - now using correct
    value
  - bugfix: ActionQueue could malfunction due to index error
    Thanks to Vlad Grigorescu for the patch
  - bugfix: $ActionExecOnlyOnce interval did not work properly
    Thanks to Tomas Heinrich for the patch
  - bugfix: race condition when extracting program name, APPNAME,
    structured data and PROCID (RFC5424 fields) could lead to invalid
    characters e.g. in dynamic file names or during forwarding (general
    malfunction ofthese fields in templates, mostly under heavy load)
  - bugfix: imuxsock did no longer ignore message-provided timestamp,
    if so configured (the *default*). Lead to no longer sub-second
    timestamps.
    closes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=281
  - bugfix: omfile returns fatal error code for things that go really
    wrong previously, RS_RET_RESUME was returned, which lead to a loop
    inside the rule engine as omfile could not really recover.
  - bugfix: imfile did invalid system call under some circumstances
    when a file that was to be monitored did not exist BUT the state
    file actually existed. Mostly a cosmetic issue. Root cause was
    incomplete error checking in stream.c; so patch may affect other
    code areas.
  - bugfix: rsyslogd -v always said 64 atomics were not present
    thanks to mono_matsuko for the patch
- Changed /etc/rsyslog.early.conf to just include rsyslog.conf,
  fixed spec to use sd-daemon.[ch] from docs on 11.4 only.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Feb 20 12:11:18 UTC 2012 - mt@suse.com

- Cleaned up the config files a bit, updated comments in config
  file, marked the /etc/rsyslog.early.conf obsolete.
  Note: rsyslog will be started early/before network using its normal
  /etc/rsyslog.conf config file (adopted scripts in syslog-service
  package). When any kind of remote logging is in use, then on-disk
  queues should be enabled. To start it after the network, please set
  the SYSLOG_REQUIRES_NETWORK=yes variable in /etc/sysconfig/syslog
  (bnc#728565).

  - bugfix: too-early string termination during tag emulation
  - bugfix: The NUL-Byte for the syslogtag was not copied in MsgDup
    (msg.c)
  - bugfix: fixed incorrect state handling for Discard Action
    (transactions) Note: This caused all messages in a batch to be
    set to COMMITTED, even if they were discarded.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Aug 24 11:05:18 UTC 2011 - mt@suse.de

- Adopted to require new syslog-service package on 12.x, that
  provides the /etc/init.d/syslog LSB init script and systemd
  syslog.service service file. Removed rsyslog.service file
  installation from spec file. (fate#311316).

  - bugfix: MSGID corruption in RFC5424 parser under some
    circumstances closes:
    http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=275
- remove rsyslog-5.8.0-memcpy.patch:
  applied upstream
- fix build for older distros:
  only buildrequire systemd-devel for newer than 11.4, use systemd
  for the others

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Aug 19 04:54:03 UTC 2011 - crrodriguez@opensuse.org

- Fix build with new gnutls

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Aug  2 07:35:13 UTC 2011 - aj@suse.de

- Require systemd-devel to follow package split.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Jul 13 11:10:15 UTC 2011 - mrueckert@suse.de

- drop modules imtemplate and omtemplate, the 2 modules are base
  templates for people who want to develop their own modules.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Jul 12 13:35:54 UTC 2011 - mrueckert@suse.de

- enabled a few more modules which dont pull extra dependencies:
  impstats, pmcisconames, pmaixforwardedfrom, pmsnare, pmrfc3164sd,
  omruleset, mmsnmptrapd

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Jul 12 13:11:04 UTC 2011 - mrueckert@suse.de

- guard the file list entry for rsyslog.service with
  if {with systemd}. Please keep the package working on older
  distros.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Jul 12 12:59:13 UTC 2011 - mrueckert@suse.de

- upstream asked to change the syntax in the default config files
  to the new syntax:
  old: *.* * # (write to all)
  new: *.* :omusrmsg:*

old: *.* $channel
  new: *.* :omfile:$channel

from what i can see we are only affected with:
  old: *.emerg *
  new: *.emerg :omusrmsg:*

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Jul 12 12:52:58 UTC 2011 - mrueckert@suse.de

- Updated to 5.8.3  [V5-stable]
  - systemd support: set stdout/stderr to null - thx to Lennart for
    the patch
  - added support for the ":omusrmsg:" syntax in configuring user
    messages
  - added support for the ":omfile:" syntax in configuring user
    messages Note: previous outchannel syntax will generate a
    warning message. This may be surprising to some users, but it
    is quite urgent to alert them of the new syntax as v6 can no
    longer support the previous one.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Jun 21 13:50:42 UTC 2011 - mt@suse.de

- Updated to 5.8.2 [V5-stable] (bnc#701282) a maintenance release,
  containing only stability fixes:
  - bugfix: problems in failover action handling
    closes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=270
    closes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=254
  - bugfix: mutex was invalidly left unlocked during action processing
    At least one case where this can occur is during thread shutdown,
    which may be initiated by lower activity. In most cases, this is
    quite unlikely to happen. However, if it does, data structures may be
    corrupted which could lead to fatal failure and segfault. I detected
    this via a testbench test, not a user report. But I assume that some
    users may have had unreproducable aborts that were cause by this bug.
  - bugfix: memory leak in imtcp & subsystems under some circumstances
    This leak is tied to error conditions which lead to incorrect cleanup
    of some data structures. [backport from v6]
  - bugfix/improvement:$WorkDirectory now gracefully handles trailing
    slashes

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue May 31 12:14:59 UTC 2011 - aj@suse.de

- Add systemd service file back (bnc#696963).

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri May 27 07:53:38 UTC 2011 - mt@suse.de

- Removed touch of obsolete /var/log/boot.log from spec post.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu May 19 15:43:28 UTC 2011 - mrueckert@suse.de

- update to 5.8.1
  - bugfix: invalid processing in QUEUE_FULL condition If the the
    multi-submit interface was used and a QUEUE_FULL condition
    occured, the failed message was properly destructed. However,
    the rest of the input batch, if it existed, was not processed.
    So this lead to potential loss of messages and a memory leak.
    The potential loss of messages was IMHO minor, because they
    would have been dropped in most cases due to the queue
    remaining full, but very few lucky ones from the batch may have
    made it. Anyhow, this has now been changed so that the rest of
    the batch is properly tried to be enqueued and, if not
    possible, destructed.
  - new module mmsnmptrapd, a sample message modification module
    This can be useful to reformat snmptrapd messages and also
    serves as a sample for how to write message modification
    modules using the output module interface. Note that we
    introduced this new functionality directly into the stable
    release, as it does not modify the core and as such cannot have
    any side-effects if it is not used (and thus the risk is solely
    on users requiring that functionality).
  - bugfix: rate-limiting inside imuxsock did not work 100% correct
    reason was that a global config variable was invalidly accessed
    where a listener variable should have been used.  Also
    performance-improved the case when rate limiting is turned off
    (this is a very unintrusive change, thus done directly to the
    stable version).
  - bugfix: $myhostname not available in RainerScript (and no error
    message) closes:
    http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=233
  - bugfix: memory and file descriptor leak in stream processing
    Leaks could occur under some circumstances if the file stream
    handler errored out during the open call. Among others, this
    could cause very big memory leaks if there were a problem with
    unreadable disk queue files. In regard to the memory leak, this
    closes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=256
  - bugfix: doc for impstats had wrong config statements also,
    config statements were named a bit inconsistent, resolved that
    problem by introducing an alias and only documenting the
    consistent statements Thanks to Marcin for bringing up this
    problem.
  - bugfix: IPv6-address could not be specified in omrelp this was
    due to improper parsing of ":" closes:
    http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=250
  - bugfix: TCP connection invalidly aborted when messages needed
    to be discarded (due to QUEUE_FULL or similar problem)
  - bugfix: $LocalHostName was not honored under all circumstances
    closes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=258
  - bugfix(minor): improper template function call in syslogd.c

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Apr 29 11:38:40 UTC 2011 - idoenmez@novell.com

- move most of the additional requirements and subpackages into
  conditionals so we can switch them on and off by more easily.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Apr 26 12:30:17 UTC 2011 - mt@suse.de

- Dropped obsolete rsyslog-systemd-integration.bnc656104.diff

  This is the new v5-stable branch, importing all feature from the
  5.7.x versions. To see what has changed in regard to the previous
  v5-stable, check the entries for 5.7.x in
  /usr/share/doc/packages/rsyslog/ChangeLog.

  included in the release
- refreshed rsyslog-systemd-integration.bnc656104.diff:
  most of the patch went upstream just a small chunk left
- fixed the with_dbi conditional, it was using the build_with_relp.
- added a new conditional with_systemd and moved all the systemd
  specific things from suse_version >= 1140 to the with_systemd
  conditional. the patch line in the preamble should be
  unconditional.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Apr  8 13:24:34 UTC 2011 - mt@suse.de

- bugfix: race condition in deferred name resolution (id=238)
  from v5.8.0 candidate.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Mar 24 16:34:31 UTC 2011 - mt@suse.de

  * bugfix: failover did not work correctly if repeated msg
  reduction was on.
  affected directive: $ActionExecOnlyWhenPreviousIsSuspended on
  * bugfix: omlibdbi did not use password from rsyslog.conf
  closes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=203
  * bugfix(kind of): tell users that config graph can currently
  not be generated
  closes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=232
  * bugfix: discard action did not work under some circumstances
  fixes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=217
  (bnc#676041)
  * bugfix: potential abort condition when $RepeatedMsgReduction
  were set to on as well as potentially in a number of other places
  where MsgDup() was used. This only happened when the imudp input
  module was used and it depended on name resolution not yet had
  taken place. (bnc#679030)
  * bugfix: fixed a memory leak and potential abort condition
  this could happen if multiple rulesets were used and some output
  batches contained messages belonging to more than one ruleset.
  fixes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=226
  fixes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=218
  * bugfix: memory leak when $RepeatedMsgReduction on was used
  bug tracker: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=225
  (bnc#681568)
- Merged systemd socket activation support

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Feb  2 16:47:24 UTC 2011 - mt@suse.de

- update to 5.6.3 (v5-stable) with following bugfixes (digest):
  * action processor released mememory too early, resulting in
  potential issue in retry cases (very unlikely).
  * batch processing flagged invalid message as "bad" under some
  circumstances
  * unitialized variable could cause issues under extreme
  conditions plus some minor nits.
  * batches which had actions in error were not properly retried
  in all cases
  * imfile did duplicate messages under some circumstances
- enabled plain tcp input, unix socket output, last message
  parser and the libdbi module as separate package.
- disabled systemd patch for openSUSE <= 11.3

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Jan 20 14:10:59 UTC 2011 - mt@suse.de

- Improved systemd socket activation support to allow multiple
  unix sockets and activation in forking mode (bnc#656197).

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Dec  3 16:49:41 UTC 2010 - mt@suse.de

- update to 5.6.2 (v5-stable) with following bugfixes:
  * compile failed on systems without epoll_create1()
    Thanks to David Hill for providing a fix.
  * atomic increment for msg object may not work correct on
    all platforms. Thanks to Chris Metcalf for the patch
  * 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).
- Increased mark frequency in rsyslog.conf to 1 hour
- Enabled duplicate message reduction in rsyslog.conf to catch
  at least buggy programs running amok and writting same message
  zillion times until the disk gets out of space (bnc#656197).
- Merged rsyslog-systemd-integration.bnc656104.diff (fuzz=0).

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Nov 29 10:32:58 CET 2010 - mt@suse.de

- update to 5.6.1
  This release addresses a TLS bug, that has been bothering a lot
  of users lately. It stops rsyslog from looping, thus disabling
  functionality and bearing the risk of unresponsiveness of the
  whole system. Other issues have been fixed for imptcp, failing
  testbench, segfault on empty templates and failed compile.
  For more detailed information, please review the ChangeLog and
    http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=194,
    http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=204,
    http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=206.

  series to the v5-stable branch.
  - 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!)
- removed obsolete patch
  - xconsole-pipe-loop
- rpmlint
  - name-repeated-in-summary C Rsyslog

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Apr 28 17:21:03 UTC 2010 - mt@suse.de

  changed to set default file template instead per file, removed
  duplicate filters (bnc#593699).

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Apr 27 12:01:44 UTC 2010 - mt@suse.de

- Applied fix to avoid a tight send-retry loop in case there is
  nobody receiving the messages sent to the xconsole pipe
  (bnc#597293, http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=186).
- Disabled relp support for < 11.3 (librelp is new)
- Fixed to create /var/run/rsyslog in post-install (rpmlint)

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Apr 14 12:16:29 UTC 2010 - mrueckert@suse.de

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Apr 13 08:56:15 UTC 2010 - mt@suse.de

- Updated to rsyslog version 5.4.0 (v5-stable). This version begins
  a new stable series based on the 5.3.x series, which has been
  proven rather well in practice. The new 5.4.0 contains fixes for
  all known problems. See ChangeLog file for a detailed history.
  The main new feature is speed: several optimizations were done,
  including support for epoll in tcp listeners.
- Added new lmzlibw.so and omruleset.so to the file list.
- Recompressed original tar.gz source archive using bzip2.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Sep  9 21:36:16 CEST 2009 - mt@suse.de

- Added read-only RSYSLOGD_NATIVE_VERSION sysconfig/syslog variable,
  that is set to the native mode version number for the -c parameter
  while every installation and used in the /etc/init.d/syslog script,
  except the user overrides this default in RSYSLOGD_COMPAT_VERSION.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Sep  2 20:15:28 CEST 2009 - mt@suse.de

- Updated to rsyslog version 4.4.1 (v4-stable), a bug-fixing release,
  providing some important fixes for issues that have only been
  detected after the beta phase. Some of them are serious (like a
  segfault when UDP messageforwarding is activated), so users of
  4.4.0 are urged to upgrade to this release. Changelog for 4.4.1:
  * features requiring Java are automatically disabled if Java
    is not present (thanks to Michael Biebl for his help!)
  * bugfix: invalid double-quoted PRI, among others in outgoing
    messages. This causes grief with all receivers.
    Bug tracker: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=147
  * bugfix: Java testing tools were required, even if testbench
    was disabled. This resulted in build errors if no Java was
    present on the build system, even though none of the selected
    option actually required Java. (I forgot to backport a similar
    fix to newer releases).
  * bugfix (backport): omfwd segfault. Note that the orginal (higher
    version) patch states this happens only when debugging mode is
    turned on. That statement is wrong: if debug mode is turned off,
    the message is not being emitted, but the division by zero in
    the actual parameters still happens.
- Removed jave2-devel-packages from build requires again

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Sep  1 11:34:12 CEST 2009 - mt@suse.de

- Updated to rsyslog version 4.4.0, the actual stable 4.4.x series.
  It provides several bugfixes, performance improvements and new
  features: It adds generic network stream server for syslog, the
  capability to rebind the send socket of the UDP output section,
  allows multiple tcp listeners, multiple recipients in ommail,
  new plugins as omprog, improved documentation and testbench
  with a config switch. Please review ChangeLog file for details.
- Removed obsolete moddirs patch (included in 4.4.0)
- Added java2-devel-packages to BuildRequires (for test suite)
- Enabled omprog and omtemplate plugins, added them and the
  lmstrmsrv plugin to the base-plugins file list.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Apr 20 17:35:16 CEST 2009 - mt@suse.de

- Improved config file comments about usage of additional
  modules provided in separate rsyslog-module packages.
- Enabled GnuTLS (syslog-transport-tls) support module.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Apr 20 13:32:03 CEST 2009 - mt@suse.de

- Updated to rsyslog 3.20.6 [v3-stable]

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Dec 15 14:51:08 CET 2008 - mt@suse.de

- Security fix to honor $AllowedSender settings (bnc#457273).
- Security fix [DoS] from 3.20.2 to emit a discard message every
  minute only (when DisallowWarning enabled) instead of every time;
  this prevernts an attacker can fill the disk (bnc#457273).

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Sep 10 15:11:05 CEST 2008 - schwab@suse.de
