ChangeLog for 3.18.5 (v3-stable)

Version 3.18.5 (rgerhards), 2008-10-09

• bugfix: imudp input module could cause segfault on HUP
  It did not properly de-init a variable acting as a linked list head.
  That resulted in trying to access freed memory blocks after the HUP.

• bugfix: rsyslogd could hang on HUP
  because getnameinfo() is not cancel-safe, but was not guarded against
  being cancelled. pthread_cancel() is routinely being called during
  HUP processing.

• bugfix[minor]: if queue size reached light_delay mark, enqueuing
  could potentially be blocked for a longer period of time, which
  was not the behaviour desired.

• doc bugfix: $ActionExecOnlyWhenPreviousIsSuspended was still misspelled
  as $…OnlyIfPrev… in some parts of the documentation. Thanks to
  Lorenzo M. Catucci for reporting this bug.

• added doc on malformed messages, cause and how to work-around, to the
  doc set

• added doc on how to build from source repository
