Bug Fixes:
* Fix segfault when process-max > 8 for archive-push/archive-get. (Reported by Jens Wilke.)
Improvements:
* Bypass database checks when stanza-delete issued with force. (Contributed by Cynthia Shang. Suggested by hatifnatt.)
* Add configure script for improved multi-platform support.
Documentation Features:
* Add user guides for CentOS/RHEL 6/7.
This report replaces the lcov report that was generated manually for each release.
The lcov report was overly verbose just to say that we have virtually 100% coverage.
The branch coverage exclusion rules were overly broad and included functions that ended in a capital letter, which disabled all coverage for the statement. Improve matching so that all characters in the name must be upper-case for a match.
Some macros with internal branches accepted parameters that might contain conditionals. This made it impossible to tell which branches belonged to which, and in any case an overzealous exclusion rule was ignoring all branches in such cases. Add the DEBUG_COVERAGE flag to build a modified version of the macros without any internal branches to be used for coverage testing. In most cases, the branches were optimizations (like checking logWill()) that improve production performance but are not needed for testing. In other cases, a parameter needed to be added to the underlying function to handle the branch during coverage testing.
Also tweak the coverage rules so that macros without conditionals are automatically excluded from branch coverage as long as they are not themselves a parameter.
Finally, update tests and code where missing coverage was exposed by these changes. Some code was updated to remove existing coverage exclusions when it was a simple change.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The new TLS/SSL implementation forbids dots in S3 bucket names per RFC-2818. This security fix is required for compliant hostname verification.
Bug Fixes:
* Fix issues when a path option is / terminated. (Reported by Marc Cousin.)
* Fix issues when log-level-file=off is set for the archive-get command. (Reported by Brad Nicholson.)
* Fix C code to recognize host:port option format like Perl does. (Reported by Kyle Nevins.)
* Fix issues with remote/local command logging options.
Improvements:
* The archive-push command is implemented entirely in C.
* Increase process-max limit to 999. (Suggested by Rakshitha-BR.)
* Improve error message when an S3 bucket name contains dots.
Documentation Improvements:
* Clarify that S3-compatible object stores are supported. (Suggested by Magnus Hagander.)
Bug Fixes:
* Fix possible truncated WAL segments when an error occurs mid-write. (Reported by blogh.)
* Fix info command missing WAL min/max when stanza specified. (Fixed by Stefan Fercot.)
* Fix non-compliant JSON for options passed from C to Perl. (Reported by Leo Khomenko.)
Improvements:
* The archive-get command is implemented entirely in C.
* Enable socket keep-alive on older Perl versions. (Contributed by Marc Cousin.)
* Error when parameters are passed to a command that does not accept parameters. (Suggested by Jason O'Donnell.)
* Add hints when unable to find a WAL segment in the archive. (Suggested by Hans-Jürgen Schönig.)
* Improve error when hostname cannot be found in a certificate. (Suggested by James Badger.)
* Add additional options to backup.manifest for debugging purposes. (Contributed by blogh.)
These are intended to be temporary until a fully automated report is developed.
Since we don't know when that will happen, at least make it easier to generate the current report.
