Rsyslog 8.11.0 (v8-stable) release

Rsyslog is a multi-threaded enhanced version of syslogd. The goal of the rsyslog project is to provide a more reliable syslog daemon and configuration. The so-called "reliable" means supporting a reliable transmission mode such as TCP or RFC 3195 (system log reliable).

rsyslog 8.11.0 (v8-stable) released, this version provides new KSI signatures, as well as imfile, omkafka, build system and other aspects of the fix.

Update Content:

new signature provider for Keyless Signature Infrastructure (KSI) added

build system: re-enable use of "make distcheck"

bugfix imfile: regex multiline mode ignored escapeLF option

bugfix omkafka: fixed several concurrency issues, most of them related to dynamic topics.

Thanks to Janmejay Singh for the patch.

bugfix: execonlywhenpreviousissuspende

d did not work correctly

This particular caused problems when an action with this attribute was configured with an action queue.

bugfix core engine: ensured global variable atomicity

This could lead to problems in RainerScript, as well as probably in other areas where global variables are used inside rsyslog. I wouldn’t outrule it could lead to segfaults.

Thanks to Janmejay Singh for the patch.< Br>
