Fluentd v1.3.0 has been released

Hi users!

We have released v1.3.0. ChangeLog is here.

Output: Change thread execution control

This is internal change of output plugin. This change should fix unexpected error like zlib's DataError.

Output: Change default value of queued_chunks_limit_size

queued_chunks_limit_size is now same as flush_thread_count when queued_chunks_limit_size is not specified.

Before, queued_chunks_limit_size is unlimited. This causes critical situation with smaller flush_interval when the destinaion has a problem. For example, lots of very small queued buffer are created and it causes resource limit error.

Unlimited queued buffer is unexpected behaviour, so we changed this behaviour for safety.

in_syslog: octet counting support

We introduced frame_type parameter. With frame_type octet_count configuration, in_syslog accepts octet counting messages like below.

Major bug fixes

• server: Fix deadlock between on_writable and close in sockets. This fixes fluentd restart issue with in_forward's TLS setting error.

Other improvements

• in_http: Add support for CORS preflight requests. Now you can send cross-domain AJAX requests with JSON payload to Fluentd.

Enjoy logging!
