syslog-ng - syslog-ng-3.24.1

Published by lbudai about 5 years ago

3.24.1

Highlights

  • Add a new template function called $(format-flat-json), which generates
    flattened json output. This is useful for destinations, where the json
    parsing does not handle nested json format. (#2890)
  • Add ISO 8601 compliant week numbering. Use it with the ${ISOWEEK} macro
    and and all its variants: S_ISOWEEK, R_ISOWEEK and C_ISOWEEK. (#2878)
  • Add add-contextual-data() glob selector. It matches the message with shell
    style globbing. Enable it by setting selector(glob("$my_template") in the
    add-contextual-data() block. (#2936)
  • Add new rewrite operations to manipulate the timezone portion of timestamps have
    been added. set-timezone() to set the timezone value to a specific value,
    fix-timezone() to fix up an incorrectly recognized timezone and guess-timezone()
    to automatically deduce the timezone value on the assumption that the message
    is received in near real time. (#2818)
  • Send Server Name Identification (SNI) information with transport(tls).
    Enable it by setting the sni(yes) option in the tls block in your
    destination. (#2930)

Features

  • templates: change the $LOGHOST macro to honour use-fqdn() (#2894)
  • Define syslog-ng-sysconfdir (#2932)
  • dqtool: add assign dqfile to persist file feature (#2872)

Bugfixes

  • Fix backtick subsitution of defines/environment variables in the main configuration file. (#2906, #2909)
  • Fix SCL block parameter substitution of quoted escaped newline (#2901)
  • python, diskq, random-generator source: crash after failed reload (#2907)
  • Fix crash at shutdown on 32bit systems (#2893, #2895)
  • Invalidate the value of the LEGACY_MSGHDR macro in case either the PID or the PROGRAM
    macros are unset() using a rewrite rule. Previously LEGACY_MSGHDR would retain the old values. (#2896)
  • on 32bit platform diskq ftruncate could fail due to size 32/64 interface (#2892)
  • Support new tzdata format, starting from version 2009.XXX, in tzinfo parser. (#2898)
  • udp, udp6, tcp, tcp6, syslog, network destination: Correctly detect and set IP_MULTICAST_TTL
    in case of multicast ip address (#2905)
  • Fix hostname resolve on systems with only the loopback network interface configured (#2933)
  • wildcard-file(): Add multi-line(), pad_size() and multi-line-mode() option validation. (#2922)
  • kafka-c: Fix multiple memleaks (#2944)

Other changes

  • geoip: remove deprecated module, geoip2 database location detection (#2780)
  • various refactor, build issue fixes (#2902)

syslog-ng - syslog-ng-3.23.1

Published by lbudai about 5 years ago

3.23.1

Features

  • The redis() destination now handles any number of command parameters.
    (#2816)

  • The format() option of date-parser() supports lists. From now on, a
    single date-parser() instance is able to process different date formats,
    making it easy to catch on when some programs change the way they log
    information. (#2779)

  • Add relocation support for disk-buffer(). The relocate subcommand of
    dqtool can be used to move a single or multiple queue files. (#2855)

  • file(), pipe(): The time-reap() option now can be set or disabled for
    each destination separately.
    Use time-reap(0) to disable closing idle destination files. (#2798)

  • syslog-ng-ctl: Add list-files subcommand to print files present in the
    current configuration. (#2797)

Bugfixes

  • Fix minor memory leaks (#2868)
  • Add global context to standalone parsers (#2876)
  • Fix heap usage after free in cfg_run_parser_with_main_context (#2884)
  • Fix g_thread_init call order issue with older glibs (#2853)
  • SNMP destination: fixing statistics format (#2854)
  • eventlog: flush escaped_buffer when full (#2837)
  • dbparser: remove unnecessary lock (#2838)
  • dbparser: fix crash when context times out in the middle of another rule (#2832)
  • radix: fix grouping in PCRE (#2808)

  • Undefined warning regression (#2829)

Other changes

  • Disable time-reap() on non-templated filenames by default (#2798)
  • The --preprocess-into command line flag accepts -, and writes the
    preprocessed configuration to stdout. (#2869)
  • Add information on environment variables passed to the confgen script (#2888)
  • Light: minor fixes (#2867, #2844)
  • python: use malloc_debug for python unit tests (#2866)
  • Travis: verbose unit test output (#2851)
  • Travis cleanup (#2809)
  • filter: add unit tests to filter-op (#2835)

syslog-ng - syslog-ng-3.22.1

Published by lbudai over 5 years ago

3.22.1

Highlights

  • Sending SNMP traps: Using the new snmp() destination, incoming log messages
    can be converted to SNMP traps, as the fields of the SNMP messages can be
    customized with macros. (#2693)

  • $(template) dynamic binding: Extends the $(template) template function to
    allow dynamic binding. For example, the name of the template to be invoked
    can come from the message (name-value pairs). (#2716)

  • syslog(), network(): Add dynamic-window-size() option to enable dynamic
    flow control that distributes the specified amount of window between active
    connections at runtime. This can be used in low-memory environments, where
    only a small subset of the active clients sends messages at high rate.
    (#2772)

Features

  • match(): Add support for the template() option (#2715)
  • add-contextual-data(): Allow using templates in name-value pairs (#2711)
  • Add support for floating point operations in template functions (#2742)
  • Add support for usec precision when parsing time (#2709)

Bugfixes

  • Fix null pointer access when destinations are suspended (#2778)
  • Fix grouping-by() deadlock (#2758)
  • Fix a general source-related crash and enhance wildcard-file()'s bookmark
    handling (#2589)
  • Fix infinite loop (reload/reopen) (#2739)
  • Fix python() package/module name collision (#2438)
  • Fix escaped quote in block argument (#2781)
  • Reintroduce test on SYSLOG_NG_HAVE_TIMEZONE (#2774)
  • snmp(): Fix template leak (#2746)

Other changes

  • Never drop flow-controlled messages: The meaning of log-fifo-size() has
    changed to avoid dropping flow-controlled messages when log-fifo-size() is
    misconfigured. From now on, log-fifo-size() only affects messages that are
    not flow-controlled. (#2753)

  • The -d/--debug syslog-ng command line flag no longer implies
    -e/--stderr. If you want to redirect internal() source to stderr,
    use the -e/--stderr option explicitly. (#2731)

  • dbld, RPM and DEB packaging improvements (#2724)

  • Checkpoint parser improvements (#2740)

  • Reset the timezone on config reload event (#2691)

  • geoip2(): Include IP into the error message (#2743)

  • Improve regexp error messages (#2796)

  • http(): Warn if less workers used than urls (#2757)

  • http(): Allow URLs to be specified by a space/comma separated string
    (#2699)

  • loggen: Change message rate at runtime using signals (#2756)

  • debun: add acquire_running_syslog_config function (#2752)

  • FreeBSD fixes for the test suite (#2783)

Notes to the developers

  • ivykis: update to 0.42.4 (#2736)
  • Support generator plugins in global options (#2747)
  • logthrfetcher: new constants (#2766)
  • logthrsourcedrv: support position tracking (#2750)
  • Light: Support pre-commit and tox (#2725)
  • Enable Bison error flags: conflicts-sr/rr (#2762)
  • Dynamic stats constant registration (#2761)

syslog-ng - syslog-ng 3.21.1

Published by lbudai over 5 years ago

3.21.1

Highlights

  • Add an alternative, native, librdkafka based kafka-c() destination in
    parallel of the existing Java implementation, that provides the same
    configuration interface. Eventually, we expect this to replace the Java
    one (#2496)

  • Add a native, http() based destination based driver for elasticsearch
    called elasticsearch-http(), as an alternative of the Java one.
    Eventually, we expect this to replace the Java implementation. (#2509)

  • Add the ability to automatically determine the timezone value for an
    incoming log entry as long as the incoming stream is close to real time
    and the timezone information is missing from the timestamp. Enable this
    function by using flags(guess-timezone) for sources and the
    date-parser(). (#2517, #2673)

Features

  • syslog(): Add the ability to work with messages larger than log-msg-size()
    in the source driver by using the trim-large-messages(yes) option.
    The characters over the limit will be truncated. Previously messages
    longer than the limit caused the connection to be closed abruptly.
    (#2644)

  • amqp(): add support for heartbeats and the "external" authentication
    mechanism. (#2676, #2626)

  • graylog2(): add support for TLS and UDP. (#2657)

  • udp(): Add spoof-source-max-msglen() option to allow setting the
    maximum spoofed datagram size, which was hard-wired to 1024 previously.
    (#2535)

  • db-parser(): add an option program-template() that customizes the
    value used for matching the PROGRAM field. (#2651)

  • pdbtool: Add sort option to pdbtool merge (#2664)

  • $(implode) and $(explode): add template functions to split and join
    strings based on a simple separator. The exploded array is represented as
    a syslog-ng list that can be manipulated with the $(list-*) template
    functions. (#2700)

  • Add an --omit-empty-values option for value-pairs based destinations &
    template functions. (#2519)

  • grouping-by() parser: add sort-key() option (#2701)

Support for non-syslog or non-standard formats in SCL

  • apache-accesslog-parser(): support for vhost:port as the first field in
    common/combined log formats (#2688)
  • Add application adapter for Junos classification (#2684)
  • Add parser and adapter for CheckPoint LogExporter output (#2665)

  • Extend Python language binding by Python parser

  • Add support for extract-stray-words() option in kv-parser()

    • stray words: those words that happen to be between key-value pairs and
      are otherwise not recognized either as keys nor as values.

  • Add $(context-values) template function

  • Add $(context-lookup) function

  • Add list related template functions

    • $(list-head list ...) returns the first element (unquoted)

Bugfixes

  • Fix a libnet detection check error that caused problem configuring
    enable-spoof-source.

  • Avoid warnings about _DEFAULT_SOURCE on recent glibc versions
    With the glibc on zesty, using _GNU_SOURCE and not defining _DEFAULT_SOURCE
    results in a warning, avoid that by defining _DEFAULT_SOURCE as well.

  • Fix invalid database warning for geoip parser

  • Fix prefix() default in systemd-journal for new config versions

  • Fix a potential message loss in Riemann destination

  • Fix a potential crash in the Riemann destination when the client is not

  • Avoid openssl 1.1.0 deprecated APIs
    When openssl is built with --api=1.1 disable-deprecated, use of deprecated
    APIs results in build failure.

Other changes

  • Increase processed counter by queued counter after reload or restart when
    diskqueue is used otherwise the newly added written counter would underflow.

  • Set the default time-zone to UTC for elasticsearch2
    Elasticsearch and Kibana use UTC internally.

  • Allow http module (curl) to be build with cmake

  • astylerc: allow continuation lines to start until column 60

  • Move kv-scanner under syslog-ng/lib

  • scratch-buffers2: implement an alternative to current scratch buffers
    This new API is aimed a bit easier to use in situations where a throw away
    buffer is needed that will automatically be freed at the next message.
    It also gets does away with GTrashStack that is deprecated in recent glib
    versions.

  • Several refactors in stats module.

syslog-ng - syslog-ng-3.9.1

Published by lbudai almost 8 years ago

3.9.1

Features

  • Improve parsing performance in case of keep-timestamp(no), earlier the
    timestamp was parsed and then dropped, now we don't parse it, which is a
    2x performance improvement in reception speed.

  • TLS based transports will publish the peer's certificate in a set of
    name-value pairs, as follows:

    • .tls.x509_cn - X.509 common name
    • .tls.x509_o - X.509 organization string
    • .tls.x509_ou - X.509 organizational unit

  • Improve performance of the tcp() source, due to a bug, syslog-ng
    attempted to apply position tracking to messages coming over a TCP
    transport, which is used for file position tracking and causing
    performance degradation. This bug is fixed, causing performance to be
    increased. (#1195)

  • Make it possible to configure the listen-backlog() for any stream based
    transports (unix-stream and tcp). Earlier this was hard-wired at 256
    connections, now can be tuned using an option. For example:

    tcp(port(6514) listen-backlog(2048));

  • Add a groupunset() rewrite rule that pairs up with groupset() but instead
    of setting values it unsets them. (#1235)

  • Add support for Elastic Shield (#1228) and SearchGuard (#1223)

  • kv-parser() is now able to cope with unquoted values with an embedded
    space in them, it also trims whitespace from keys/values and is in
    general more reliable in extracting key-value pairs from arbitrary log
    messages.

  • Improve performance for java based destinations. (#1243)

  • Add prefix() option to add-contextual-data()

Bugfixes

  • Fix a potential crash in the file destination, in case it is a template
    based filename and time-reap() is elapsed. (#1183)

  • Fix a potential ACK problem within syslog-ng that can cause input windows
    to overflow queue sizes over time, effectively causing message drops that
    shouldn't occur. (#1230)

  • Fix a heap corruption bug in the DNS cache, in case the maximum number of
    DNS cache entries is reached. (#1218)

  • Fix timestamp for suppression messages. (#1233)

  • Fix add-contextual-data() to support CRLF line endings in its CSV input
    files.

  • Fixed key() option parsing in riemann() destinations.

  • Find libsystemd-journal related functions in both libsystemd-journal.so
    and libsystemd.so, as recent systemd versions bundled all systemd
    related libs into the same library.

  • Fixed the build-time detection of system-wide installed librabbitmq,
    libmongoc and libcap.

  • Fix the file source to repeatedly check for unexisting files, as a bug
    caused syslog-ng to stop after two attempts previously. (#841)

  • The performance testing tool "loggen" crashed if it was used to generate
    messages on multiple threads over TLS. This was now fixed. (#1182)

  • Fix an issue in the syslog-parser() parser, so that timestamps parsed
    earlier in the log path are properly overwritten. Earlier a time-zone
    setting may have remained in the timestamp in case the first timestamp
    did contain a timezone and then the one parsed by syslog-parser() didn't.
    (#1206)

  • Due to a compilation issue, tcp-keepalive-time(), tcp-keepalive-intvl() and
    tcp-keepalive-probes() were not working, now they are again. (#1214)

  • The --disable-shm-counters option is now passed to mongo-c-driver to work
    around a minor security issue (#1219).

    https://jira.mongodb.org/plugins/servlet/mobile#issue/CDRIVER-1691/comment/1405406

  • Fix compilation issues on FreeBSD. (#1252)

  • Add support to month names in all caps in syslog timestamps. At least one
    device seems to generate these. (#1263)

  • The options() option to java destination can now accept numbers and not
    just strings.

  • Fix a memory leak in the java destination driver, that may affect java
    based destinations like ElasticSearch, Kafka & HDFS.

Other changes

  • HDFS was updated to 2.7.3
  • Elasticsearch was updated to 2.4.0
  • Support was added for OpenSSL 1.1.x (#1281)

Notes to the Developers

  • We started to standardize our tests on the criterion unit testing
    framework, please submit all new tests using this framework. Patches to
    convert existing ones are also welcome.
    https://github.com/Snaipe/Criterion
  • We also added a configuration file for astyle and accompanying make
    targets to check/reformat the source code to meet syslog-ng's style.
  • debian/ directory has been removed from the "master" branch and is now
    maintained in a separate "release" branch.

syslog-ng - syslog-ng-3.8.1

Published by lbudai about 8 years ago

3.8.1

Library updates

  • Kafka-client updated to version to 0.9.0.0
  • Minimal required version of hiredis is set to 0.11.0 to avoid
    possible deadlocks
  • Minimal version of libdbi is set to 0.9.0

New dependencies

  • From now autoconf-archive package is a build-dependency.

Improvements and features

  • Added the long-waited disk-buffer.
  • date-parser ported from incubator to upstream
  • New template functions: min, max, sum, average
  • Added Apache-accesslog-parser
  • Added loggly destination
  • Added logmatic destination
  • Added template function for supporting CEF.
  • cURL-based HTTP destination driver added (implemented in C
    programming language)
  • SELinux policy installer script now has support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux/CentOS/
    Oracle Linux 5, 6 and 7.
  • Implemented add-contextual-data:
    With add-context-data syslog-ng can use an external database file to append
    custom name-value pairs on incoming logs (to enrich messages). The 'database'
    is actually a file that containing <selector, name, value> records.
    Currently only CSV format is supported.
    It is like geoip parser where the selector is $HOST, but in this case,
    the user can define the selector, and also the database contents.

Drivers

  • Program destination/source drivers
    • Added inherit-environment configuration option to program source and
      destination. When it is set to true then the process will inherit the
      entire environment of the parent process.
    • Added keep-alive option to program destination (afprog).
      This option will control whether the destination program should be
      terminated at reload, or should be left running.
  • Java drivers
    • HTTP destination
      • Added the ability to use templates in both url and message.
    • ElasticSearch Destination driver :
      • Support 2.2.x series of ElasticSearch (transport and node mode) .
      • Support Shield plugin for both ElasticSearch 1.x and ElasticSearch
        2.x .
      • Implemented new mode (HTTP) that can work with ElasticSearch 1.x,
        ElasticSearch 2.x, and even with Elastic 5. HTTP mode is based on
        a Java HTTP Rest client (Jest : https://github.com/searchbox-io/Jest).
        Note: make install will copy Jest library to the syslog-ng install
        directory.
  • MongoDB destination driver
    • Replaced submodule limongo-client with mongo-c-driver.
    • Additional support for previous syntax used by libmongo-client
      before we started using mongo-c-driver and its URI syntax exclusively.
      Note that these are plainly translated to a connection URI without
      much sanity checking or preserving their former semantic meaning.
      So various aspects of the MongoDB connection like health checks, retries,
      error reporting and synchronicity will still follow the slightly altered
      semantics of mongo-c-driver.
  • Riemann destination driver
    • Use cert-file() and key-file() options to match afsocket keywords as
      the same way as afsocket drivers use these options. The old one still
      work though.

Rewrite rules

  • Introduced template options in rewrite rules.
  • Added unset operation to make it possible to unset a specific name-value pair
    for a logmessage.

Parsers

  • kvformat: make it possible to specify name-value separator
  • linux-audit-scanner: recognize a0-a9* as fields to be decoded
    Argument lists are encoded in a0, a1, ... fields that can potentially be
    hex-encoded.
  • csv-parser has been refactored, extended with new dialect and prefix options.
    Dialect is to convey CSV format information, instead of using flags
    Prefix option gets prefixed to all column names, just like with
    other parsers.

PatternDB

  • added groupingby() parser that can perform simple correlation on
    log messages. In a way it is similar to the SQL GROUP BY operation, where
    an aggregate of a set of input records can be calculated.
    The major difference between SQL GROUP BY and groupingby() is that the
    first always operates on a enumerable list of records, whereas
    groupingby() works on a stream of data.
    A few use-cases where this can be useful:
    • Linux audit logs
    • postfix logs
  • added create-context action
    Added a new possible action in the element, to create
    a new correlation context out of the current message and its associated
    context. This can be used to "split" a state.
  • Added NLSTRING parser that captures a string until the
    following end-of-line. It can be used in patterns as: @NLSTRING:value@
    It doesn't expect any additional parameters. This makes it pretty easy to
    parse multi-line Windows logs.

Miscellaneous features

  • syslog-debun (debug bundle script for syslog-ng) has been improved

Bugfixes

  • geoip-parser: When default database if not specified, syslog-ng crashed.
  • Added support for multiple drivers with the same name in syslog-ng config.
  • Fixed aack counting logic for junctions that have branches that modify
    the LogMessage.
  • Fixed a potential crash for code that uses log_msg_clear()
    in production (e.g. syslog-parser()).
  • Fixed potential crash in reload logic
  • system(): use string comparison instead of numeric in PID rewrite
    The meaning of the != operator has been fixed to refer to numeric comparison
    in @version: 3.8, so make sure we are using string comparison.
  • Support encoding on glib compiled with libiconv
  • pdbtool: Fix the ordering of the debug-info list in PatternDB
  • afprog: Don't kill our own process group
    If, for some reason, the program source/destination failed to set up its
    own process group, we need to make sure we do not run killpg() on that
    process group, as it would kill ourselves.
  • Handle option names with hyphen (-) characters in java scls
  • dnscache performance improved
    Instead of getting rid off the per-thread DNSCache when a worker thread
    exits, store them in a linked list and acquire them as a new thread starts.
    The set of cached hostnames are valuable as worker threads come and
    go (they exit after 10seconds of inactivity), but without this
    reusing of cache instances, our DNS cache is filled again and again.
  • Fixed IPv6 parser in patterndb.
  • Fixed journald program name flapping
  • Fixed create-dirs() inheritance in file destinations
  • Fixed pass-unix-credentials() global inheritance in afunix
    The global pass-unix-credentials option was not inherited in afunix-source
    if the options{}; block was positioned lower in the
    configuration file than the given module declaration.
  • Fixed create-dirs() global inheritance in afunix
    When the global create-dirs option was set to yes, the local one was ignored.
  • Fixed byteorder handling on bigendian systems in netmask6 filter
  • Fixed flow-control issue when overflow queue is full
    (suspending source by setting the window size to 0).
  • Log HTTP response error codes in HTTPDestination (Java).
  • Fixed potential leaks related $(sanitize) argument parsing in basicfuncs.
  • Fixed a memory leak in python debugger
  • Fixed a use-after-free bug in templates.
  • Fixed a memory leak around reload in netmask6 filter.
  • Fixed a memory leak in LogProtoBufferedServer in case the
    encoding() option is used.
  • configure: don't override $enable_python while executing pkg-config
  • Fixed BSD timestamp parsing in syslog-format.
  • Fixed a SIGPIPE bug in program destination.
  • Error handling has been improved in AMQP destination.
  • value-pairs performance improvements, memleak fixes
  • Various issues around UTF-8 support fixed.
  • Fixed integer overflow in numerical operations template function
  • Fixed an integer underflow in afsocket.
  • Fixed numerical comperisons issues around filters.
    There's a problem in straight fixing this issue though: anyone who used
    the numeric operators erroneously will have their behaviour changed, therefore
    this patch also adds a configuration update warning in case
    someone is using the wrong syntax.
  • Fixed kernel log message time drift on Linux.
  • Take CRLF sequences equivalent to an LF in patterndb.
    Windows logs contain embedded CRLFs which is difficult to match against
    from db-parser(), as we use a UNIX text file to store the patterns. Also,
    the fact that the input contains CRLF whereas our patterns only contain
    an LF makes it a very unintuitive non-match, which is difficult to debug.
  • When syslog-ng failed to insert data into Redis, it has crashed.
  • When device file is set as a file destination then syslog-ng will not try
    to change the permission of the device file.
  • Various fixes around config file parsing:
    • in some circumstances syslog-ng crashed when the config
      file contained non-readable characters
    • fixed a memory leak
    • fixed memory leak around backtick substitution

Notes to the Developers

  • copyright cleanup in source tree
  • install tools and scl under a syslog-ng specific subdirectory
    These should never be installed in /usr/share directly, but rather under a
    subdirectory and as described in
    https://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Directory-Variables.html
    we should do that right within the source and not rely on packaging tools
    to do it for us.This will trigger a required change in packaging scripts to
    avoid changing the --datadir, as the default of
    /usr/share should work out-of-the-box.
  • Support for native-lanugage (compiled languages, like Rust) bindings.
    These bindings just forward the calls to the native side.
    This whole module compiles into a static library
    (libsyslog-ng-native-connector.a) which is linked to all external native
    modules. A native module defines the required functions
    (like native_parser_proxy_new()) so those symbols will be resolved.
    Some symbols have the visibility(hidden) attribute applied to them. Those
    symbols are defined by the other half of the native bindings, we only need
    their signature here. They are hidden because their definition is contained
    in other source files but we would like to keep them as "library private".
    If they are exported, the dynamic linker will resolve them when a module is
    loaded, therefore every module would be mapped to the first loaded one.
    It is best to hide everything in this native connector.
  • Support system librabbitmq-c (AMQP destination)
    Currently only the internal librabbitmq-c is supported,
    if we want to use the preexisting library, the configuration
    will fail.
    This change is required if we want to get rid of the
    internal libraries.
  • Added check-valgrind target to Makefile
  • Remove dependency on Gradle for building Java language bindings
    (not modules, just the language binding)
  • Experimental CMake support added
  • Experimental OSX support added
  • Improved Travis build matrix
  • Added plugin skeleton creator.
  • Debian packaging improved: Debian packaging from unofficial
    OBS repository has been ported to upstream.
    From now, someone could easily build debian packages from upstream source.
