Full changelog at https://github.com/cfengine/core/blob/3.9.0/ChangeLog
New features:
- Classes promise: allow classes without an expression to default to
defined.
- Add optional interface parameter to iprange() to match only one
interface.
- Allow '=' in symbolic modes (Redmine #7826)
- Add: FreeBSD ports package module
- New package module for FreeBSD pkg package manager.
- Add support for adding/removing fifos in policy
- Add Linux parsing of /proc/net/ data.
- sys.inet
- sys.inet6
- sys.interface_data
- Data is returned as a data container.
- See documentation for more details. (Jira CFE-1991)
- sys.ip2iface: new reverse mapping variable from IP to
interface name
- Namespaced classes can now be specified on the command line.
- namespaces can now be passed to cf-runagent -D and --remote-bundles
(Redmine #7856)
- Add 'cf-full' and 'json-full' to cf-promises '-p' option.
They generate output based on the entire policy. The existing 'cf'
already behaved this way, and it has now been changed to generate
output only for a single file, which the existing 'json' option
already does.
- New language functions: processexists() and findprocesses()
(Redmine #7633)
- Implement new regex_replace() function. (Redmine #7346)
OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/systemsmanagement/cfengine?expand=0&rev=141
Fixes:
- Reduce verbosity of apt_get package module (Redmine #7485)
- Reduce verbosity of yum package module (Redmine #7485)
- The isvariable() function call now correctly accepts all
array variables when specified inline. Previously it would not accept
certain special characters, even though they could be specified
indirectly by using a variable to hold it. (Redmine #7088)
- Don't follow symbolic links when copying extended attributes.
- Fix a bug which sometimes caused package promises to be
skipped with "XX Another cf-agent seems to have done this
since I started" messages in the log, most notably in long running cf-agent
runs (longer than one minute). (Redmine #7933)
- Fix bug which could render host unable to recover from a
syntax error, even if failsafe.cf was utilized. This could
happen if the file containing the syntax error was specified in the def.json
special file. (Redmine #7961)
- Change: Policy files specified in the "inputs" section of
def.json will no longer be auto-loaded. One has to refer to the
$(def.augments_inputs) variable in the policy (the standard
masterfiles policies include this by default). This only affects
installations which are not based on the standard masterfiles, and
which are using the "inputs" field inside def.json. (Redmine #7961)
- Fix file descriptor leak when there are network errors.
- Fix cf-serverd error messages with classic protocol clients
(Redmine #7818)
- Installing packages containing version numbers using yum
now works correctly. (Redmine #7825)
- Fix ps options for FreeBSD to check processes only in
current host and not in jails
OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/systemsmanagement/cfengine?expand=0&rev=139

fixes a bug where certain entries in this file would be parsed
too late to have any effect on the evaluation. (Redmine #7453, #7615)
- Fix HP-UX specific bug that caused a lot of log output to disappear.
- Check for empty server response in RemoteDirList after decryption
(Redmine #7908)
- getvalues() will now return a list also for data containers,
and will descend recursively into the containers. (Redmine #7116)
- Define (bootstrap|failsafe)_mode during update.cf when triggerd
from failsafe.cf (Redmine #7861)
OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/systemsmanagement/cfengine?expand=0&rev=137
New features/additions:
- New feature: Bodies can now inherit attribute values from
other bodies by specifying "inherit_from" with the name of the body to
inherit from, plus any arguments it accepts. For example:
body classes myclasses
{
inherit_from => classes_generic("myname");
}
(Redmine #4309)
- Add url_get() function. (Redmine #6480)
- Add @if feature() syntax
@if feature work like @if minimum_version but allows distinguishing
between features choosen at compile time.
- Extend module protocol to create persistent classes.
To use it, have the module print a line with "^persistence=<minutes>"
before printing any class names. "persistence=0" goes back to non-
persistent classes. (Redmine #7302)

Changes:
- Change: Clarify bootstrap/failsafe reports
- Change: Improve in-line docs for internal log maintenance
- Change: Improve efficiency and debug reports (Redmine #7527)

See https://github.com/cfengine/core/blob/3.7.x/ChangeLog for
full changelog
New features:
- New package promise implementation.
The syntax is much simpler, to try it out, check out the syntax:
packages:
"mypackage"
policy => "absent/present",
# Optional, default taken from common control
package_module => apt_get,
# Optional, will only match exact version. May be
# "latest".
version => "32.0",
# Optional.
architecture => "x86_64";
- Full systemd support for all relevant platforms
- New classes to determine whether certain features are enabled:
* feature_yaml
* feature_xml
For the official CFEngine packages, these are always enabled, but
packages from other sources may be built without the support.
- New readdata() support for generic data input (CSV, YAML, JSON, or auto)
- YAML support: new readyaml() function and in readdata()
- CSV support: new readcsv() function and in readdata()
- New string_mustache() function
- New data_regextract() function
- eval() can now be called with "class" as the "mode" argument, which
will cause it to return true ("any") if the calculated result is
non-zero, and false ("!any") if it is zero.
OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/systemsmanagement/cfengine?expand=0&rev=131

platforms it caused problems with big numbers.
Fixed in two ways:
first change all existing policy uses to 999999999 (nine 9s instead
of eleven 9s), second fix the C code to not wrap-around in case of
overflow, but use the LONG_MAX value (Redmine #6531).
- cf-serverd and other daemons no longer reload their configuration
every minute if CFEngine is built with an inputs directory outside
OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/systemsmanagement/cfengine?expand=0&rev=104
New features:
- Introduced Solaris and AIX support into the 3.6 series, with
many associated build and bug fixes.
Changes:
- Short-circuit evaluation of classes promises if class is already
set (Redmine #5241)
- fix to assume all non-specified return codes are failed in
commands promises (Redmine #5986)
- cf-serverd logs reconfiguration message to NOTICE (was INFO)
so that it's always logged in syslog
Bug fixes:
- File monitoring has been completely rewritten (changes attribute
in files promise), which eliminates many bugs, particularly
regarding files that are deleted. Upgrading will keep all
monitoring data, but downgrading again will reinitialize the DB,
so all files will be reported as if they were new. (Redmine #2917)
- $(this.promiser) expands in files promises for 'transformer',
'edit_template', 'copy_from.source', 'file_select.exec_program',
'classes' and 'action' bodies (Redmine #1554, #1496, #3530, #1563)
- 'body changes' notifies about disappeared files in file monitoring
(Redmine #2917)
- Set not-kept classes when files or commands promise should be
repaired, but is warn-only (Redmine #2359)
- Fixed CFEngine template producing a zero-sized file (Redmine #6088)
- Add 0-9 A-Z _ to allowed context of module protocol (Redmine #6063)
- Extend ps command column width on Solaris and filter on zone
rather than adding it to the ps output.
- Fixed strftime() function on Solaris when called with certain
specifiers.
OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/systemsmanagement/cfengine?expand=0&rev=101
to prevent crash on syntax error
- add 0007-Simplify-and-fix-parsing-of-etc-SuSE-release-fixes-i.patch
* add 'suse' class for consistency with other vendor classes
(fixes#5417)
* distinction between "SUSE Linux Enterprise Server" (sles) and
"... Desktop" (sled)
* distinction between SUSE Linux Enterprise products (suse) and
openSUSE (opensuse)
* extract version from VERSION and PATCHLEVEL lines instead of
first line of /etc/SuSE-release
- merge cfengine-server with cfengine. A policy server only
gets cfengine-masterfiles but is otherwise identical to
a client.
