t/utils/llist_test: Added tests for clone and destroy.
Added unit testing framework based on ‘check’.
For now, some basic tests for utils::list have been added.

configure: Added cname::dns to summary output.
sysdbd.conf(5): Added a short description for each plugin.
object: Removed support for cloning typed objects.
This is not used currently. Since it only introduces unneeded complexity (and
somewhat ugly code in some cases), it's better to remove it.

store: Support NULL attribute values.
store: Handle cname translation centrally.
store: Handle locking correctly when storing attributes.
We cannot release the lock before the attribute update is finished.

store: Use generic store function also to store attributes.
Except for small special cases, this is exactly the same as storing other
store objects.

store: Refactored host/service store code.
Simplified the code based on the new internal data structures.

store: Unified host and service objects into a hierarchical store object.
This allows both hosts and services to support attributes. Also, hosts and
services may be children of other objects allowing to represent dependencies
or other hierarchical structures.
The external interface does not support hierarchical stores yet, though.

store: Removed now duplicate code.
When creating a new host object, the services/attributes list are always
initialized to an empty list object. No need to further check this anymore.
This was only required in earlier code when copying a user-provided host
object.

store: Let store object-types be private types.
The user should interact through the objects names or 'features' rather than
accessing any of the objects themselves.

store: Let sdb_store_service() accept const arguments.
There's no need in letting the caller construct a service object. All passed
in strings are treated as constant values anyway.

function to access the actual host object. So, don't expose it that way.

sysdbd.conf: Improved 'cname' documentation.
sysdbd.conf: Added and documented a sample LoadPlugin "cname::dns".
cname::dns: Added first version of a plugin to query DNS for cnames.
plugin/store: Added support for "cname" plugins.
This type of plugins may be used to canonicalize hostnames. Before storing a
new hosts, all registered cname callbacks will be used to translate the
specified hostname before actually storing it.

Let objects be named.
This allows to move common code into helper functions. The objects module now
provides a function to compare two objects by name and linked-lists support to
lookup objects by name now.
This removes the need for various custom and somewhat ugly helper functions
and data-types.

sysdbd.conf(5): Added 'syslog' plugin.
error: Updated documentation; removed obsolete TODO note.
syslog plugin: Added plugin to log to syslog.
config: Added support for (generic) LoadPlugin.
plugin: Added support for log callbacks.
Use this logging mechanism to log messages from the error module.

sysdbd.conf(5): Added an initial manpage for sysdbd's configuration.

store: Use sdb_object_clone, rather than the private, specific functions.

object system: Introduced a 'clone' callback for types.

object system: Introduced a concept of types.
A type is defined by its size and init/destroy functions. This is now used

Simplified inherited attribute naming in store objects.
This way, we avoid name clashes with other variables that would also be
replaced by the preprocessor.

plugin: Log a warning in the main loop if there are no collectors.
sysdbd: Set a default interval of 60 seconds.
Use sdb_error_chomp() to remove newlines from multi-part messages.
The actual logging callback should take care of handling that appropriately in
these cases as well.

utils error, strbuf: Added sdb_error_chomp(), sdb_strbuf_chomp().

utils strbuf: Copy va_lists rather than using them twice.
After a va_list has been passed to a function that uses va_arg(), the value of
the va_list is undefined. Thus, rather copy the list before using it for the
first time to make sure we've got a valid va_list object on the second usage.

utils error: Use string buffers rather than static strings.
utils strbuf: Added an automatically growing string implementation.
Whenever writing to the buffer, it will ensure that enough space is allocated
to store all of the string.

mk-livestatus backend: Use '::' to separate instance in callback names.
This is just to be consistent with the other plugins.

Renamed puppet-storeconfigs backend to puppet::store-configs.
Renamed collectd backend to collectd::unixsock.
plugin, daemon: Use '::' in plugin names to indicate subdirectories.
That is, behave similar to Perl when encountering a '::' in a plugin's name and
translate that to a slash. "foo::bar" will thus become PKGLIBDIR/foo/bar.so.
This will be used to name plugins accessing the same backend using different
methods and to have an, imho, nicer name for those.
The daemon will now use that to prepend "backend::" to the name of backends.
This is no different to the behavior before but only uses different names that
will be displayed in log messages.

This name is used throughout the project, e.g., as file or directory names.

Moved sdb_strerror() from utils/string.h to utils/error.h.
Renamed error recording / logging functions.
sdb_error_set() now is sdb_log(); the sdb_error_start(), _append(), _finish()
triple is now called sdb_error_set(), _append(), _log(). These names better
describe what's actually going on.

utils error: Make sure to destroy memory allocated for error information.
utils error: Added module for error reporting.
This module will transparently store error information for each thread (similar
to errno). Support functions to store and retrieve error messages are available
on top of that. Once the error message has been passed to SysDB, it will log
the entire message. Currently, only printing to the standard error channel are
available.

Renamed sysdbd.conf to sysdbd.conf.sample.
Also, unconditionally install that file; the user is expected to not change the
.sample file but rather use her own custom sysdbd.conf (there is no generic
config file anyway that could be shipped and enabled by default).

configure: Also check for xmlto (in addition to xsltproc).
This is also needed by the asciidoc tool-chain (in our situation?).

configure: Don't use -Wunreachable-code.
This seems to cause errors with some versions of GCC when using assertions
that (after optimization, inlining, and code-analysis) will never be true.

backends, daemon: Don't shadow global 'socket' and 'daemon' symbols.
store, llist: Don't shadow the global symbol 'clone'.
configure: Improved the check for disabled puppet-storeconfigs.
sdb_plugin.m4: Provide more details if a plugin is disabled by default.
The default value passed to AC_SDB_PLUGIN might contain additional information
about why the plugin has been disabled by default. This information should be
forwarded to the user.

configure: Don't pre-set enable_<plugin> variables.
This would cause AC_SDB_PLUGIN to assume that the respective --enable-<plugin>
option was given on the command-line and, thus, behave unexpected when this is
not the case.

puppet-storeconfigs backend: Check database connection in collect callback.
utils dbi: Added sdb_dbi_client_check_conn().
This functions checks the database connection and tries to reconnect if there
was a problem. The return code determines if the connection was usable
afterwards.

Renamed the project to SysDB (System DataBase).
This name more closely resembles the actual intent / goal of the project.
The prefix for defines / function / etc. has been changed to sdb_.

store: Fixed host lock handling.
Release the lock before returning in error conditions.

Puppet storeconfigs backend: Query facts and store them as host attributes.
store: Added support for host attributes.
Attributes are a list of key / value pairs assigned to a host object. They may
be used to store arbitrary properties, settings, or other characteristics of a
host.
Later on, this information will also be used to filter, group, or
hierarchically order hosts.

line. The function will split each line into columns. The data-types of each
column may be specified by the caller.
This is similar to the DBI query abstraction function (sc_dbi_exec_query()) in

This has been ripped out of the DBI module to make the functionality available
to other modules as well through a uniform interface.

syscollectord: Include extra version information in startup/shutdown messages.
Added initial version of the MK Livestatus backend.

Shinken and possibly other software, to retrieve host information from those
monitoring systems.

utils unixsock: Added wrappers for clearerr(), feof(), and ferror().

This function is a wrapper around shutdown(3). After shutting down send /
receive operations, the client will automatically re-connect on the next
send() / recv() call.
