- added $LocalHostName config directive
- bugfix: local hostname was pulled too-early, so that some config
directives (namely FQDN settings) did not have any effect
at least in important cases (not for non-direct action queues and some
other minor things). This version is definitely buggy, but may be tried
with success on a non-production system. I will continue to work on the
correctness, but needed to commit now to get a baseline.
Now, the full batch is passed down to the rule, which then enqueues
the elements as single messages. Note that this code has some known
defects and needs more changes until it is correct again. This is
primarily a commit to be able to return to a known-(somewhat)-good
state.
things like ACL check and message parsing. This leads to a greater level
of concurrent processing. Beware, though, that this commit duplicates
some messages. May be a regression from this or an earlier commit. I will
soon sort out.
this enables us to work with the "usual" environment tweaks (for
debugging and other purposes), without the need for any special
handling in nettester itself
- _FILE_OFFSET_BITS must be defined before including any other system
headers otherwise it does nothing.
- Don't define it in rsyslog.h, let it be defined in config.h,
and let ./configure script enable LFS since Autoconf provides
a portable macro to enable LFS support : AC_SYS_LARGEFILE
... based on old omfile. Michael Biebl reported that xconsole seems
to have some issues with the new pipe code, so it was best to use
the old code for pipes. The optimizations were done to speed up file
access, so it doesn't really matter pipes do not receive them.
- improved testbench to contain samples for totally malformed messages
which miss parts of the message content
- bugfix: some malformed messages could lead to a missing LF inside files
or some other missing parts of the template content.
- bugfix: if a message ended immediately with a hostname, the hostname
was mistakenly interpreted as TAG, and localhost be used as hostname

This actually was a "recent" regression, but I did not realize that it
was introduced by the performance optimization in v4-devel. Shame on
me for having two devel versions at the same time...
- bugfix: queues in direct mode could case a segfault, especially if an
action failed for action queues. The issue was an invalid increment of
a stack-based pointer which lead to destruction of the stack frame and
thus a segfault on function return.
Thanks to Michael Biebl for alerting us on this problem.

- bugfix: wrong memory assignment for a config variable (probably
without causing any harm) [backport from 5.2.2]
