DESCRIPTION:

  A new stable version of syslog-ng Open Source Edition (3.3.2) has been
  released. For latest fixes in the 3.3.x feature branch you are recommended to
  upgrade to this version.

CHANGES:

3.3.2
	Sat, 12 Nov 2011 20:48:53 +0100

	Bugfixes:
	=========

	* Fixed a segmentation fault on reload when using the same rewrite
	  rule from multiple log paths.

	* Fixed a segmentation fault when processing a reload request in
	  case an existing tcp() source is removed from the config and there
          are open connections.

	* Fixed a possible segmentation fault in the scalable queue
	  implementation, which happens in case a destination is slower to
          process messages than syslog-ng would like to send them.

	* Fixed a possible file() destination issue that could cause
	  syslog-ng to omit data or to write garbage to the log file in case
	  the kernel reports that only a smaller portion of the actual write
	  request could be accomplished.

	* Fixed an "internal error duplicate config element" error during
	  reload due to an invalid bugfix applied for 3.3.1.  Older beta
	  versions of 3.3 were not affected.

	* Fixed a memory leak that causes macro based file destinations to
	  leak their queue when destination files are closed due to
	  time-reap().

	* Fixed the handling of the condition() option for rewrite rules.

	* Fixed a race condition in value-pairs support, potentially causing
	  heap corruption problems when $(format-json) is used in threaded
	  mode.

	* Fixed a memory leak in value-pairs template function argument
	  parsing, fixing a leak if $(format-json) is used.

	* Repeated definitions of source, destination, filter, rewrite,
	  parser and block elements are not allowed by default anymore.
	  These are reported as configuration errors unless

              @define allow-config-dups 1

          is specified in the configuration file.

	* Fixed pdbtool error reporting in "pdbtool test" to make it easier
	  to understand what went wrong.

	* Added an SQL connection health check in case an INSERT failed.
	  This way syslog-ng handles SQL server timeouts better.

	* Fixed support for systemd socket activation. Previously such
	  sockets were not set to non-blocking mode, causing syslog-ng to
          hang.

	* Fixed the filter() function in the filter expression to work also
	  when used as a part of an AND or OR construct.

	* Allow the sql() destination to operate even without an indexes()
	  option. That parameter was meant to be optional, but it wasn't.

	* Fixed compilation issues if no OpenSSL is present.

	* Fixed a minor memory leak in the usertty() driver that can increase
	  memory usage on every reload. (The username() parameter wasn't
	  properly freed on reload).

	* Fixed a minor memory leak in the sql() driver that can increase
	  the memory usage on every reload (indexes() parameter wasn't
	  properly freed on reload).
