|
### Fixes
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Issue #11: Some users still reported problems with parallel build,
|
|
|
|
|
|
which was worked-around with `.NOTPARALLEL` in [v2.1][]. This v2 fix
|
|
|
|
|
|
is a refactor of `src/Makefile.am` which removes `libcompat` and use
|
|
|
|
|
|
the same objects for linking both `syslogd` and the user `libsyslog`
|
|
|
|
|
|
API. Yet still protecting against symbol poisoning
|
|
|
|
|
|
- A Westermo customer reported problems sending to remove syslog sinks
|
|
|
|
|
|
at startup. Turns out the handling if `sendmsg()` fails was the same
|
|
|
|
|
|
as that if `syslogd` fails to resolve the IP from a DNS name. The fix
|
|
|
|
|
|
is to just let `sendmsg()` retry on the next syslog message for all
|
|
|
|
|
|
benign/common network errors; `EHOSTUNREACHABLE`, `ENETUNREACH`, etc.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Fix timer reset for suspended remote sinks. For all new incoming syslog
|
|
|
|
|
|
messages all suspended (remote) sinks had their timeout mistakenly reset
|
|
|
|
|
|

|

[v2.1][] - 2020-01-05

Relicensed under the 3-clause BSD license.

2019-12-07 15:00:26 +05:30
|
|
|
|
### Changes
|
|
|
|
|
|
- `klogd` removed, replaced by native `syslogd` functionality
|
2020-01-05 18:00:14 +05:30
|
|
|
|
- Import pristine FreeBSD versions of `syslogd` and `syslog.conf` man
|
2019-12-07 15:35:02 +05:30
|
|
|
|
pages, both under the 3-clause BSD license.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- With `klogd` removed and the original man pages replaced with FreeBSD
|
|
|
|
|
|
versions, the only remaining GPL'ed material was the build system,
|
|
|
|
|
|
which the copyright owner (undersigned) agrees to change to BSD as
|
|
|
|
|
|
well. Hence, the GNU GPL could be dropped in favor of 3-clause BSD
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Fixes
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Issue #8: Kernel messages duplicated to console. `syslogd` on Linux
|
|
|
|
|
|
now calls `klogctl()` to disable kernel logging to console
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Earlier versions were slightly sensitive to time skips. I.e., when
|
|
|
|
|
|
recording the last-change time on a log file and wall time changed
|
|
|
|
|
|
backwards, `syslogd` would consider that log file to have a date in
|
|
|
|
|
|
the future. This only affected buffering of multiple messages, and
|
|
|
|
|
|
`-- MARK --` so most users never would have noticed
|
2019-12-25 12:55:48 +05:30
|
|
|
|
- Issue #9: Kernel logging broken if `syslogd` started without `-F`
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Issue #10: Fix build on non-GLIBC Linux systems, by Khem Raj
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Issue #11: Fix nasty parallel build problem. Also reported by the
|
|
|
|
|
|
Gentoo project, and Westermo
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Make sure log rotation cannot be enabled for non-file targets
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Use `snprintf()` rather than `sprintf()` in log rotation
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Fix variable names shadowing global/local defs, found by clang-tidy
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Handle multiple invocations of SIGHUP, respond to all of them
|
2019-12-07 15:00:26 +05:30
|
|
|
|
- Use correct `#ifdef` for checking on Linux or not
|

[v2.0.3][] - 2019-12-01
|
|
|
|
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Changes
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Always run `domark()` timer, regardless of `-m interval` setting,
|
|
|
|
|
|
it is used for internal housekeeping, runs every 15 sec
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Handle DNS lookup of unknown remote syslog hosts in `domark()`
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Only enable debug mode when `-d` is given on the command line
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Always create PID file, even in debug mode
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Add `-F`, as alias for `-n`, to klogd for compat. with syslogd
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Fixes
|
|
|
|
|
|
- When logging to a remote host using @FQDN previous releases of syslogd
|
|
|
|
|
|
gave up after 10 tries. In many industrial cases intermittent access
|
|
|
|
|
|
to the DNS is very likely, so this release includes a fix to retry the
|
|
|
|
|
|
IP address lookup forever. The interval for retries is configurable
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Fix accidental blocking of SIGHUP/SIGALRM when an invalid facility is
|
|
|
|
|
|
found in the internal `logmsg()` function
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Fix leaking of internal error messages (like DNS lookup failure) to
|
|
|
|
|
|
`/dev/console` during reconfiguration, i.e. after initial start
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Changes
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Add missing remote:port info in error message when failing to send to
|
|
|
|
|
|
a remote syslog server.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Fixes
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Fix `assert()` in `fprintlog_successive()`, caused by never being
|
|
|
|
|
|
reset in `fprintlog_first()`, found by Westermo
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Issue #6: Workaround for systems with vanilla autoconf 2.69 that does
|
|
|
|
|
|
not support `--runstatedir=PATH`, e.g. CRUX <https://crux.nu/>

- Expand resulting directories in configure summary
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Fixes
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Add missing `-k` and `-T` command line flags to `getopt()`
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
This release represents a major refresh of the sysklogd project. The
|
|
|
|
|
|
venerable syslogd gets an infusion of new blood from NetBSD and FreeBSD
|
|
|
|
|
|
to fully support RFC3164 and RFC5424. Also included is a user library
|
|
|
|
|
|
and a replacement for `syslog.h` to enable new features in RFC5424.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2019-11-15 13:28:41 +05:30
|
|
|
|
> Note: as of this release `klogd` is disabled by default, `syslogd` can
|
|
|
|
|
|
> read Linux kernel messages on its own now.

|
|
|
|
### Changes
|
2019-11-07 23:38:05 +05:30
|
|
|
|
- Support for true RFC3164 formatted log messages to remote log servers,
|
|
|
|
|
|
including timestamp and hostname. Use `;RFC3161` rule option
|
2019-11-15 13:28:41 +05:30
|
|
|
|
- Support for RFC5424 from UNIX domain socket, from remote servers and also
|
|
|
|
|
|
to remote servers. Requires new API `syslogp()` to unlock these features
|
|
|
|
|
|
on the UNIX socket. Still compatible with GLIBC/musl/uClibc
|
2019-11-07 23:38:05 +05:30
|
|
|
|
- Support for options to `syslog.conf` rules. E.g. `;RFC5424` to enable
|
|
|
|
|
|
sending/writing log messages with RFC3339 style timestamps, and more
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Support for `include /etc/syslog.d/*.conf` in `syslog.conf`
|
2019-11-15 13:28:41 +05:30
|
|
|
|
- New tool `logger` from the Finit project, BSD licensed. Supports all the
|
|
|
|
|
|
features of RFC5424, so *very* useful for trying out the "new" standard
|
2019-11-07 23:38:05 +05:30
|
|
|
|
- Support for reading from a custom UNIX domain socket path, `-p SOCK`,
|
|
|
|
|
|
for unit testing with `logger -u /path/to/sock`
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Support for sending to a custom port on a remote server, `@host:port`
|
|
|
|
|
|
- New `syslogp()` API from NetBSD, for applications wanting to use
|
|
|
|
|
|
RFC5424 features like MsgID or structured data
|
2019-11-15 13:28:41 +05:30
|
|
|
|
- Many *incompatible changes* to command line options in `syslogd` and
|
|
|
|
|
|
`klogd` for compatiblity with FreeBSD and NetBSD syslogd. Examples:
|
2019-11-12 18:00:25 +05:30
|
|
|
|
- In syslogd: `-b` and `-c` have been replaced with `-r` for global
|
|
|
|
|
|
log rotation, `-a` has been replaced with the new `-p` support. The
|
|
|
|
|
|
`-r` flag and `-s HOST` has also been dropped in favor of the BSD
|
2019-11-13 21:35:42 +05:30
|
|
|
|
`-s` flag to control two levels of _secure mode_. The `-n` flag is
|
2019-11-15 13:28:41 +05:30
|
|
|
|
now `-F` and `-n` means something else entirely ... there's more
|
2019-11-07 23:38:05 +05:30
|
|
|
|
- In klogd: `-i` and `-I` have been removed
|
2019-11-15 13:28:41 +05:30
|
|
|
|
- `klogd` is not built by default anymore, `syslogd` can read `/proc/kmsg`
|
|
|
|
|
|
on Linux on its own. Reduces complexity and gives you one daemon less
|
|
|
|
|
|
- When systemd support is detected by the configure script the unit file(s)
|
|
|
|
|
|
are now installed into the systemd system services folder
|
2019-10-13 18:27:05 +05:30
|
|
|
|
- Update COPYING file to GPL 2 rev 2, with new FSF address and other minor stuff
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Update license header in all files:
|
2019-11-07 23:38:05 +05:30
|
|
|
|
- Sync 3-clause BSD license change with upstream NetBSD and FreeBSD sources
|
2019-10-13 18:27:05 +05:30
|
|
|
|
- Sync GPL license header, new FSF address
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Add SPDX license identifiers to all source files
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Fixes
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Fix GCC 8 warnings; "too small destination buffer in `snprintf()`"
|
2019-11-07 23:38:05 +05:30
|
|
|
|
- Major code cleanup and rewrite inspired by both NetBSD and FreeBSD
|
|
|
|
|
|
sources, e.g. removed all previous unit `TESTING` #ifdefs

- klogd will set the console log level only if `-c' is given on the

. Removed kernel.patch since it is no longer required
. Changed SOCK_STREAM to SOCK_DGRAM in syslog.c
. klogd will only change the console log level if `-c' is supplied
. syslogd.c by Bill Nottingham <notting@redhat.com>
Um, if the directory is invalid, the bind() call in
create_unix_socket fails. Without the return -1, we return the
invalid fd that we just closed. When syslogd then starts
listening, select goes into a hard loop getting EBADF, IIRC.
. klogd.c by Troels Walsted Hansen <troels@thule.no>
I found a bug in the sysklogd package version 1.4. When it
encounters a zero byte in the kernel logging output, the text
parser enters a busy loop. I came upon it when the 3c59x driver
from kernel 2.4.0 started outputting two zero bytes for the product
code of my laptop's 3Com card. It could be argued that the kernel
should never output zero bytes in the logging info, but obviously
that will happen from time to time.
I fear this bug might be considered a security issue as well, if
the kernel can be coerced to output a zero byte somehow, all kernel
logging will stop.
Wolfgang Oertl <Wolfgang.Oertl@uibk.ac.at> had a similar bugfix
idea
. klogd.c by Thomas Roessler <roessler@does-not-exist.org>
Additionally, the patch prevents LogLine from being invoked with a
negative counter as an argument.

- Several bugfixes and improvements, please refer to the .c files
|
* New upstream source (closes: Bug#87819, Bug#70790, Bug#32580,
Bug#62358, Bug#71631)
* Upstream: Doesn't re-set log-level if not requested (closes:
Bug#76170, Bug#76170, Bug#85289)
* Upstream: Ignore zero bytes (closes: Bug#85478, Bug#85478, Bug#41068)
* Upstream: Corrected documentation for `-s' (closes: Bug#87020)
* Upstream: test for existence of syslogd-listfiles before calling
them. This got lost due to 1.4.0 brokennes which was packaged and
removed some hours later (closes: Bug#84872, Bug#66712)
* Applied patch by Tommi Virtanen <tv@debian.org> splitting the package
into `sysklogd' and `klogd' (closes:Bug#35586, Bug#72043, Bug#74864,
Bug#72122)
* Provide / depend on virtual packages system-log-daemon
and linux-kernel-log-daemon (closes: Bug#67604)
* Applied patch from Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org> to support `-s pattern' in
syslogd-listfiles
* Transition to FHS, i.e. /usr/share/doc instead of /usr/doc and
/usr/share/man instead of /usr/man (closes: Bug#79250, Bug#80771)
* Use --exec for stopping services (closes: Bug#76757)
* Corrected broken character in klogd.8 (cloes: Bug#75932)
* Only rotate logfiles with size greater than zero. This got lost due
to 1.4.0 brokennes which was packaged and removed some hours later
(closes: Bug#74993, Bug#49824)
* Added another note about modificability of cronjobs (closes:
Bug#88741)
* Since klogd replaces parts of sysklogd a proper Replaces line is there
* Added final newline to CHANGES
