| 5 | + |
| 6 | +This is the third maintanance release for 3.6.x series. |
| 7 | + |
| 8 | +Changes compared to 3.6.2: |
| 9 | + |
| 10 | +Core fixes |
| 11 | +---------- |
| 12 | + |
| 13 | + * Inaccurate timestamps fixed on Linux for messages read from /dev/kmsg. |
| 14 | + For those messages syslog-ng uses keep-timestamp(no). |
| 15 | + |
| 16 | + * Added DOS/Windows line ending support in config. |
| 17 | + |
| 18 | + * In some cases, not all the existing plugins were loaded by default. |
| 19 | + |
| 20 | + * In some cases, syslog-ng crashed during stop phase when user wanted |
| 21 | + syslog-ng to stop immediately after start. |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | + * Some memory leak around reload and internal queueing mechanism has been fixed. |
| 24 | + |
| 25 | +Build related fixes |
| 26 | +------------------- |
| 27 | + |
| 28 | + * Manpage build issue fixed by adding `--enable-manpages` and `--with-docbook` |
| 29 | + configure option. `--with-docbook=PATH` gives the user the opportunity to |
| 30 | + specify the path for the user's own installed docbook. |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | + * Fixed parallel build by adding correct dependencies to |
| 33 | + syslog-ng-ctl/Makefile.am. |
| 34 | + |
| 35 | +Module fixes |
| 36 | +------------ |
| 37 | + |
| 38 | + * When a not writeable file becomes writeable later, syslog-ng recognize it |
| 39 | + (with the help of reopen-timer) and delivers messages to the file without |
| 40 | + dropping those which were received during the file was not available. |
| 41 | + |
| 42 | + * Fixed a crash at the first message delivery when templates are used in |
| 43 | + a filename. |
| 44 | + |
| 45 | + * Fixed a memory leak around file destination driver. |
| 46 | + |
| 47 | + * In some circumstances, during reload, syslog-ng crashed when |
| 48 | + high internal message rate occured. |
| 49 | + |
| 50 | + * When the configured host was not available during the initialization of |
| 51 | + `afsocket` destination syslog-ng just didn't start. From now, syslog-ng |
| 52 | + starts in that case and will retry connecting to the host periodically. |
| 53 | + |
| 54 | + * Retries fixed in SQL destination. In some circumstances when |
| 55 | + `retry_sql_inserts` was set to 1, after an insertion failure all incoming |
| 56 | + messages were dropped. |
| 57 | + |
| 58 | + * Connection process fixed in `amqp` destination and RabbitMQ module is |
| 59 | + set to upstream. |
| 60 | + |
| 61 | + * Monolithic libsystemd library support added. |
| 62 | + In systemd 209, the various small libsystemd-* libraries were merged |
| 63 | + into a single libsystemd. From now, syslog-ng detects and |
| 64 | + uses the merged library when present, while still supports the split |
| 65 | + ones too. If the merged library is found, that will be preferred. |
| 66 | + |
| 67 | + * Destination port fixed in `afstomp`. |
| 68 | + |
| 69 | + * A memory leak fixed around ping functionality in `redis`. |
| 70 | + |
