rsyslog 3.19.3 released

Hi all,

We have just released rsyslog 3.19.3. The primary new feature is support
for (optional) mutual authentication in TLS mode. This is based on
IETF's upcoming syslog-transport-tls standard in certificate fingerprint
authentication mode. Other than that, there are a couple of bug fixes.
The is a recommended update for all users of the development branch.
Please note that TLS support is still quite experimental and not
recommended for production use.

Changelog:

As always, feedback is appreciated.

I'm getting 100% cpu usage with this version and the daemon can only
be killed with -9.
Stock configuration without using TLS or RELP.
I can provide more info if requested.

Cheers,
Michael

Yes, pls provide more info. This seems to be a problem that I have seen
(but not yet able to fix) on BSD only. This is the bug tracker:

http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=67

Please try to disable imklog, so that we know if it is the culprit (if
not, that's probably a different bug).

Thanks,
Rainer

Disabling imklog did indeed help. I'm on Linux (Debian) though.
Config file attached

P.S: Should we continue the discussion via the BTS?

That's a good idea, especially as the list processor stripped the config
;)
