Thanks to Dave Cottlehuber for his patch. + * apache, ascent, bind, curl, curl_json, curl_xml, nginx and + write_http plugins: Portability fixes, protection from infinite + redirect loops, improved error handling and incorrect dereferences + have been fixed. Most of these are related to the cURL library. + Thanks to Dan Fandrich for his patches. + * logfile plugin: Flush the output file handle. This works around + caching when logging to STDOUT and redirecting into a file. Thanks + to Nathan Huff for the patch. + * network plugin: Build issues under FreeBSD and initialization have + been fixed. Thanks to Ed Schouten for his patch. + * mysql plugin: Fix a memory leak in the error handling. Thanks to + Tomas Doran for his patch. + * thermal plugin: The initialization of dispatched value lists has + been fixed. Thanks to Markus Knetschke for his patch. + * unixsock plugin: Parsing of options with an underscore, e.g. + "plugin_instance" has been fixed. Thanks to Tommie Gannert for his + patch. + +2012-11-11, Version 4.10.8 + * collectd: Create new directories with mode 0777 and let umask remove + unwanted permission bits. + * collectd: Build issues have been fixed. + * collectd: An incorrect assertion has been fixed in some common code + for Solaris. This should resolve pseudo-random assertion failures + under Solaris.

Thanks to Gerrie Roos for fixing these. + * apcups plugin: Improve the reconnect behavior. + * df plugin: Ignore "rootfs" devices under Linux to avoid having them + reported twice. Thanks to Brune Prémont for fixing this. + * disk plugin: Fix incorrect computation of read and write latency (the + "disk_time" type). Previously, the numbers reported where too small + by a factor of "interval", e.g. when the interval is set to 10 + seconds, the values were too low by a factor of 10. Thanks to Manuel + Sanmartin for reporting this problem. + * dns plugin: A build issue under Solaris has been fixed. A erroneous + define that could lead to the reporting of bad data has been fixed by + Daniel Sutto. + * memcachec plugin: A bug in the configuration handling has been fixed. + Thanks to Pascal Hofmann for fixing this issue. + * netapp plugin: Correctly close the connection on communication + errors. + * netlink plugin: The function used to query statistics has been + changed to be more in line with iproute2's behavior. Thanks to + "KIvosak" for the patch. + * network plugin: Initialization of libgcrypt has been fixed. Thanks to + Chris Lundquist for his patch. + * oracle plugin: Error messages have been improved. + * ping plugin: Don't enter the exponential back-off mode when + ping_send() fails.

Thanks to Will Hawkins for fixing this bug. + * snmp plugin: Support for the SNMP_ENDOFMIBVIEW return value has been + added. Support for more complex / unusual MIBs / subtrees has been + added.

Thanks to Louis + Opter for his patch. + * memcached plugin: Increased the size of a static buffer, which was + truncating status messages form memcached. Thanks to Timon for the + patch. + * network plugin: Forwarding of notifications has been disabled.

Also switch + to 64-bit counters on Solaris, improving overflow behavior for + high-speed interfaces. Thanks to Eddy Geez and Fabien Wernli for + their patches. + * memory plugin: Account kernel and unused memory under Solaris. Thanks + to Fabien Wernli for his patch. + * network plugin: A bug in the interaction between the Network plugin + and filter chains has been fixed: When a filter modified a field such + as the hostname, subsequent values in the same network packets could + have ended up using the modified name rather than the original name. + Thanks to Sebastian Harl for identifying the problem. + * oracle plugin: A memory leak has been fixed in the parameter handling. + * python plugin: A memory leak has been fixed.
