------------------------------------------------------------------------------ PACKAGE : syslog-ng VERSION : 3.1.3 SUMMARY : new stable release DATE : Nov 26, 2010 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ DESCRIPTION: A new stable version of syslog-ng Open Source Edition (3.1.3) has been released. For latest fixes in the 3.1.x feature branch you are recommended to upgrade to this version. CHANGES: 3.1.3 Thu, 18 Nov 2010 07:50:42 +0100 Bugfixes: * csv-parser() defaults to "escape-none" mode even if it is not specified. * Fixed a possible CPU spinning in case mark_freq() is changed from a non-zero value to zero and syslog-ng is reloaded. * Fixed a flow control problem for the internal() source possibly causing an assertion to fail, e.g. syslog-ng to crash voluntarily. * Make it possible to use a literal '$' character by using two of them. * Make it possible to use binary characters within strings in configuration files by using a C-like \xHH, \oOOO syntax. * Attempt to flush the messages sitting in output queues a bit harder at shutdown. * Handle ESTALE errors in the file source for NFS file systems, which might cause a spin on the CPU otherwise. * Fixed a possible use-after-free problem potentially causing crashes or misbehaviour. No concrete errors were reported though. * The SQL driver didn't honour the port() option, this was fixed. * Fixed program_override() option, previously it overrode the hostname instead because of a typo. * Accept 3.1 as configuration version, previously it only accepted 3.0. * Fixed internal() message loop detection in case an error happened on the log writer flush path.
