3b8f0ef missed some cases that could cause archive-push to fail:
* Checking archive info.
* Checking to see if a WAL segment already exists.
These cases are now handled so archive-push can succeed on any valid repos.
The stanza-create, stanza-upgrade and stanza-delete were required to be run on the repository host. When there was only one repository allowed this was not a problem.
However, with the introduction of multiple repository support, this becomes more of a burden to the user, therefore the stanza-create, stanza-upgrade and stanza-delete commands have been improved to allow for them to be run remotely.
Moving to YAML allows the configuration data to be read by C programs.
Also go back to using YAML::XS since it is the only implementation that has proper boolean support.
Up to four repositories may be configured. A potential benefit is the ability to have a local repository for fast restores and a remote repository for redundancy.
Some commands, e.g. stanza-create/stanza-update, will automatically work with all configured repositories while others, e.g. stanza-delete, will require a repository to be specified using the repo option. See the command reference for details on which commands require the repository to be specified.
Note that the repo option is not required when only repo1 is configured in order to maintain backward compatibility. However, the repo option is required when a single repo is configured as, e.g. repo2. This is to prevent command breakage if a new repository is added later.
The archive-push command will always push WAL to the archive in all configured repositories but backups will need to be scheduled individually for each repository. In many cases this is desirable since backup types and retention will vary by repository. Likewise, restores must specify a repository. It is generally better to specify a repository for restores that has low latency/cost even if that means more recovery time. Only restore testing can determine which repository will be most efficient.
For single repository configurations there should be no change in behavior.
The following options are renamed as specified:
repo1-azure-ca-file -> repo1-storage-ca-file
repo1-azure-ca-path -> repo1-storage-ca-path
repo1-azure-host -> repo1-storage-host
repo1-azure-port -> repo1-storage-port
repo1-azure-verify-tls -> repo1-storage-verify-tls
repo1-s3-ca-file -> repo1-storage-ca-file
repo1-s3-ca-path -> repo1-storage-ca-path
repo1-s3-host -> repo1-storage-host
repo1-s3-port -> repo1-storage-port
repo1-s3-verify-tls -> repo1-storage-verify-tls
The old option names (e.g. repo1-s3-port) will continue to work for repo1, but repo2, etc. will require the new names.
Repositories will be searched in order for the requested archive file.
Errors will be reported as warnings as long as a valid copy of the archive file is found.
This is useful for initialization that needs to be done for the test and all subsequent tests.
Use the new defines to implement initialization for sockets and statistics.
When building tests only include files covered by the current test or by prior tests. This increases performance (less compilation and linking) and also helps detect cross-dependencies in the code. Since there are currently cross-dependencies the depend option is used to document them and allow compilation. The idea is to resolve them incrementally over time.
Add the harness option to include harness modules when the minimum requirements for compilation are met.
Add the feature option to indicate which features are now available in the harness (based on source modules already tested). This allows conditional compilation in harness modules when some features are not yet available.
At one time Minio had stability problems with latest but that appears to be resolved for the last year or so.
Use latest so we'll know if something breaks since Minio is frequently used in production.
The unit test Makefile generation was a hodge-podge of constants and rules based on distros/versions that easily got out of date and did not work on an unknown system. All of this dates from the mixed Perl/C unit test implementation.
Instead use configure to generate most of the important Makefile variables, which allows the unit tests to run on multiple platforms, e.g. MacOS and FreeBSD.
There is plenty of work to be done here and not all the unit tests work on MacOS and FreeBSD for various reasons.
As a POC update the MacOS and FreeBSD tests on Cirrus-CI to run a few command unit tests.
MacOS does not allow files to be removed recursively unless the owner has write and execute permissions on all the directories.
Some tests leave the permissions in a bad state so fix them up before trying to delete.
YAML::XS requires libyaml so it not as portable as pure Perl versions of YAML.
Instead of using YAML:PP just use the general YAML::Any module which uses whatever is installed. We are not concerned about performance for YAML so whatever works is fine.
Messages on stderr were being lost due to the error suppression used to customize the error message.
Also update the formatting to be more informative and concise.
Multi-repository implementations for the archive-push, check, info, stanza-create, stanza-upgrade, and stanza-delete commands.
Multi-repo configuration is disabled so there should be no behavioral changes between these commands and their current single-repo implementations.
Multi-repo documentation and integration tests are still in the multi-repo development branch. All unit tests work as multi-repo since they are able to bypass the configuration restrictions.
All unit tests now require full coverage so the "full" keyword is obsolete and has been removed.
The covered code modules are simply listed, with only "no code" modules annotated.
These options specify the number of local worker job retries and the retry interval after one immediate retry.
There is some value in allowing retries to be specified by the user but for the most part these options are for suppressing retries during testing, which can save a lot of time. The bug introduced in d1d25c7 and fixed in 8b86d5e also suggests it is better not to use retries in tests.
Remove the default delayed retries for archive-get/archive-push, leaving only the immediate retry. These commands are retried by PostgreSQL so it doesn't make sense to do too many retries internally.
These options are currently internal.
No timeout is expected here but the small timeout prevents errors from being thrown.
This is not a bug since the error would be thrown on the next archive-get call but it does make the tests harder to debug when there is an error.
It is not clear why there was a timeout here at all. It is likely cruft from a prior test or a copy/paste error.
Testing on Travis-CI has been getting slower (from ~18 minutes to 3-6 hours) and the travis-ci.org service will be terminated at the end of the year. Moving to travis-ci.com is an option but the quotas are too low for our purposes.
Instead use Github Actions, which does not currently have quotas, and runs our current tests with just a few tweaks.
This still leaves multi-architecture tests on Travis-CI but we may be able to run those and stay within the new quotas.
Also fix a minor bug in restoreTest.c exposed by Github Actions using a different name for the user and group.

Documentation Improvements:
* Replace RHEL/CentOS 6 documentation with RHEL/CentOS 8.
Update RHEL/CentOS 7 to cover the versions that were previously covered by RHEL/CentOS 6.
Since RHEL/CentOS 7/8 work the same update the documentation logic and labels to reflect this compatibility.
CentOS6 EOL'd and the mirrors were swiftly deleted, leading to failures in tests and documentation.
Remove CentOS 6 for now to get builds going again with the intention to replace it in the near future with CentOS 8.
Improve locking on remote processes by introducing an exec-id that is unique to the main process and passed to all remote processes. This allows the remote processes to determine if a lock is held by a remote from the same main process. If so, the lock is allowed.
The exec-id is also useful for associating remote logs with main logs for debugging purposes.
Currently indexes above 1 do not have dependencies checked, so this doesn't error.
In a future commit we will enable those checks and this will error if it is not fixed.
Add older PostgreSQL versions to the u18 container that were not available before.
This also updates all minor versions for prior versions of PostgreSQL.
These values are not used by the Perl integration tests so maybe it would be better to remove them, but for now just update since they should not be changing again for PG13.
Currently each module that needs to collect statistics implements custom code to do so. This is cumbersome.
Create a general purpose module for collecting and reporting statistics. Statistics are output in the log at detail level, but there are other uses they could be put to eventually.
No new functionality is added. This is just a drop-in replacement for the current statistics, with the advantage of being more flexible.
The new stats are slower because they involve a list lookup, but performance testing shows stats can be updated at about 40,000/ms which seems fast enough for our purposes.
This loop was using a lot of memory without freeing it at intervals.
Rewrite to use char arrays when possible to reduce memory that needs to be allocated and freed.
Remove all check and stanza-* tests except for the ones that are intended to succeed. The successful tests show that the queries run with expected results against each version of PG which should also validate queries for the failure tests in the unit tests.
Also remove the tests for --no-online backups since they don't require a database and are well tested in the unit tests.
There are a few non version specific tests that need to be run in integration because we can't get coverage in the unit tests.
To save some time we'll only run those tests against the same version we use for expect testing.
This caused restore to replace files based on timestamp and size rather than overwriting, which meant some files that should have been updated were left unchanged. Normal restore and restore --delta were not affected by this issue.
Azure and Azure-compatible object stores can now be used for repository storage.
Currently only shared key authentication is supported but SAS will be added soon.
There is no need to have parallelism enabled in a backup control session. In particular, 9.6 marks pg_stop_backup() as parallel-safe but an error will be thrown if pg_stop_backup() is run in a worker.
Test matrices were previously simplified for the mock/* tests (e.g. d4410611, d489eb87) but not for real/all since the rules for which tests would run with which options was extremely complex. This only got more complex when new compression formats were added.
Because the loop-generated matrix was so large, mosts tests were skipped for most option combinations following arcane logic which was nearly impossible to decipher even when reading the code, and completely impossible from the test.pl interface. As a consequence, important tests got excluded. For example, backup from standby was excluded for most versions of PostgreSQL because it was only run once per distro, against the latest version to be included in that distro.
Simplify the tests by having a single run per PostgreSQL version and vary test parameters according to the capabilities of each version and the underlying distro. So, ZST testing is based on whether the distro supports ZST. Every test is run for each set of parameters based on the capabilities of the PostgreSQL version, e.g. backup from standby is not attempted on versions that don't support it.
Note that since more tests are running the overall time to run the mock/all tests has increased by about 20-25%. Some time may be saved my removing tests that are adequately covered by unit tests but that should the subject of another commit. Another option would be to limit some non version-specific tests to a single, well defined version of PostgreSQL, .e.g the version that is run by expect tests, currently 9.6.
The motivation for this refactor is that new storage drivers are coming and the loop-generated test matrix simply was not up to the task of adding them.
The following is an example of the new test log (note longer runtime of each test):
module=real, test=all, run=1, pg-version=10 (106.91s)
module=real, test=all, run=1, pg-version=9.5 (151.09s)
module=real, test=all, run=1, pg-version=9.2 (123.11s)
module=real, test=all, run=1, pg-version=9.1 (129s)
vs. the old test log (sub-second tests were skipped entirely):
module=real, test=all, run=2, pg-version=10 (0.31s)
module=real, test=all, run=3, pg-version=10 (0.26s)
module=real, test=all, run=4, pg-version=10 (60.39s)
module=real, test=all, run=1, pg-version=10 (69.12s)
module=real, test=all, run=6, pg-version=10 (34s)
module=real, test=all, run=5, pg-version=10 (42.75s)

The unsupported version error is showing up on older versions of PostgreSQL (e.g. 9.1, 9.2) on RHEL6 when setting up a standby with streaming replication. The error occurs when a client does not properly send a version number and it's not clear why it is happening here, but it does not appear to have anything to do with pgBackRest and only affects RHEL6, i.e. 9.1 and 9.2 do not show this error on other distros.
For now ignore the error since RHEL6 is nearly EOL.
There is no sense in generating detailed coverage reports in CI environments where they will never be seen. It takes time and format differences in some older versions can cause problems in the report generation code.
Note that missing coverage will still be reported on stdout and the test will fail.
This aligns better with general PostgreSQL usage and our own documentation (updated in 4bcef702).
Usage in the backup.manifest tests has not been updated since it might break the file format.
There don't appear to be any behavioral changes since PostgreSQL 12 and all the tests pass.
Changes to the control/catalog/WAL versions in subsequent betas may break compatibility but pgBackRest will be updated with each release to keep pace.
Vendorized code is copied from another project when a library is not available and a git subproject won't work. Currently all the vendorized code is copied from PostgreSQL but it makes sense to have a more general mechanism for indicating vendorized code.
The .vendor extension will be used to denote vendorized code in the same way that .auto is used to denote auto-generated code.
Rather than bS3 use strStorage which can indicate more than two storage types.
For the moment there are still only two storage types but this change is required before more can be added.
These tests required sudo to achieve complete coverage.
Add a new coverage exception, vm_covered, that applies to code that can only be covered in a container. When the test is run outside of a container code sections that require a container will be excluded with TEST_CONTAINER_REQUIRED and the coverage exception will be added to prevent a coverage error.
This does require marking up the core code with vm_covered, which in some modules (e.g. common/io/tls/client) can be extensive. It's possible that some of these tests can be rewritten to be less dependent on sudo but no attempt was made to do that here.
Only allow coverage summaries in a vm since coverage summaries outside a vm will not be complete, which was true even before this commit.
Newer versions of sudo output this message to stderr when run in a container:
sudo: setrlimit(RLIMIT_CORE): Operation not permitted
See https://github.com/sudo-project/sudo/issues/42 for details.
A simple workaround is to prevent sudo from disabling core dumps. This seems safe enough because if sudo is segfaulting then core files are the least of our worries.
There are a number of Valgrind errors on Ubuntu 12.04 which do not happen on newer distro versions. However, suppressions for these errors have masked legitimate issues in subsequent code.
Instead, make suppressions VM specific so errors in other VMs are not masked.
bzip2 is a widely available, high-quality data compressor. It typically compresses files to within 10% to 15% of the best available techniques (the PPM family of statistical compressors), while being around twice as fast at compression and six times faster at decompression.
bzip2 is currently available on all supported platforms.
Zstandard is a fast lossless compression algorithm targeting real-time compression scenarios at zlib-level and better compression ratios. It's backed by a very fast entropy stage, provided by Huff0 and FSE library.
Zstandard version >= 1.0 is required, which is generally only available on newer distributions.
Previously when retention-archive was set (either by the user or by default), archives prior to the archive-start of the oldest remaining full backup (after backup expiration occurred) would be expired even though the retention-archive threshold had not been met. For example, if there were 1 full backup remaining after backup expiration and the retention-archive was set to 2 and retention-archive-type=full, then archives prior to the archive-start of the remaining full backup would still be removed even though retention-archive required 2 full backups remaining before archives should be expired.
The thought was to keep the archive directory clean and since the full backup did not require prior archives, it was safe to delete them. However, this has caused problems for some users in the past (because they needed the WAL for other purposes) and with the new adhoc and time-based retention features, it was decided that the archives should remain until the threshold was met. The archives will eventually be removed and if having them causes space issues, the expire command and the retention-archive can always be run and adjusted.
The specified backup set (i.e. the backup label provided and all of its dependent backups, if any) will be expired regardless of backup retention rules except that at least one full backup must remain in the repository.
Allows casting const-ness away from an expression, but doesn't allow changing the type. Enforcement of the latter currently only works for gcc-like compilers.
Note that it is not safe to cast const-ness away if the result will ever be modified (it would be undefined behavior). Doing so can cause compiler mis-optimizations or runtime crashes (by modifying read-only memory). It is only safe to use when the result will not be modified, but API design or language restrictions prevent you from declaring that (e.g. because a function returns both const and non-const variables).
Note that this only works in function scope, not for global variables (it would be nice, but not trivial, to improve that).
UNCONSTIFY() requires static assert which is a feature in its own right.
This functionality was embedded into TlsClient but that was starting to get unwieldy.
Add SocketClient to contain all socket-related client functionality.
If the tests are running quickly then the time target might end up the same as the end time of the prior full backup. That means restore auto-select will not pick it as a candidate and restore the last backup instead causing the restore compare to fail.
So, sleep one second.
Decisions about when to optimize or enable debug code were spread out in too many places making it hard to keep them consistent.
Centralize the logic as much as possible to make it easier to maintain.
In the ExpireEnvTest.pm backupCreate() function, backup-prior was incorrectly set for diff backups to the previous backup regardless of what backup type the previous backup was. This did not cause any issues in the Mock Expire tests before because it was not being checked. However, in order to reduce churn in the expect logs for a new feature where the backup-prior is utilized, this is being fixed so that the full backup is always used as backup-prior.
* Fix a few issues with file names being truncated introduced in 787d3fd6.
* Use function line info from the lcov file to calculate which lines to show for uncovered functions. This is more accurate than what we were doing before and function comment headers are now excluded which reduces clutter in the report.
The old coverage data has been recorded so it is no longer needed. In newer versions of gcc leaving this file around can lead to an error when writing profile data after forking off to a non-pgbackrest binary (which we do in some unit tests).
* Show all uncovered branch parts even when there are more than two parts per branch. This is the way gcc9 reports coverage so it needs to work even if it doesn't make as much sense as the old way.
* Show covered branches in functions where coverage is missing. Showing just the uncovered branches can be confusing because it's not always clear how the coverage relates to the code. By showing all branch coverage (+ or -) this correspondence is made easier.
We don't report branch coverage on test modules (e.g. test/src/module/common/errorTest.c) but the code that excluded branch coverage from the test module would also exclude it from all core modules if the test module was included in the lcov report due to lack of function/line coverage.
Adjust the coverage code to only exclude branches during the extraction of test module coverage.
For some reason gcc9 would not do -O0 builds in combination with one of the options that libperl required. Now that libperl is gone this exception is no longer required.
When multiple files were missing coverage it could be hard to locate the coverage report for a specific file.
Add links for uncovered files to make this easier.
Also move table titles out of the table so they are valid html.
These results were stored in the vagrant path along with a full copy of src.
Instead store the raw coverage data in test/result/raw and change source references to the files that already exist in [test-path]/repo.
It makes more sense to build in the test path since many developers won't have a vagrant path. Anyway, it's better not to modify the vagrant path since it belongs to vagrant.
Instead of installing the binary just mount it into the container from where it was built. This saves a bit of time and space.
The prior method was to build a special container to hold these files which meant they would get stale on development systems. On CI the container was always rebuilt so failures would be seen there even when dev seemed to be working.
Instead get the package source when the package is built to ensure it is as up-to-date as possible.
This change was prompted by failures on the Ubuntu 12.04 container while getting the package source, probably due to an ancient version of git. Package builds are no longer supported on that platform with the addition of lz4 compression so it didn't seem worth fixing.
The primary source for project info is now src/version.h.
The pgBackRestDoc::ProjectInfo module loads the project info from src/version.h at runtime so there is no need to update it.
This is consistent with the way BackRest and BackRest test were renamed way back in 18fd2523.
More modules will be moving to pgBackRestDoc soon so renaming now reduces churn later.
This directory was once the home of the production Perl code but since f0ef73db this is no longer true.
Move the modules to test in most cases, except where the module is expected to be useful for the doc engine beyond the expected lifetime of the Perl test code (about a year if all goes well).
The exception is pgBackRest::Version which requires more work to migrate since it is used to track pgBackRest versions.
LZ4 compresses data faster than gzip but at a lower ratio. This can be a good tradeoff in certain scenarios.
Note that setting compress-type=lz4 will make new backups and archive incompatible (unrestorable) with prior versions of pgBackRest.
This was the interface between Perl and C introduced in 36a5349b but since f0ef73db has only been used by the Perl integration tests. This is expensive code to maintain just for testing.
The main dependency was the interface to storage, no matter where it was located, e.g. S3. Replace this with the new-introduced repo commands (d3c83453) that allow access to repo storage via the command line.
The other dependency was on various cfgOption* functions and CFGOPT_ constants that were convenient but not necessary. Replace these with hard-coded strings in most places and create new constants for commonly used values.
Remove all auto-generated Perl code. This means that the error list will no longer be maintained automatically so copy used errors to Common::Exception.pm. This file will need to be maintained manually going forward but there is not likely to be much churn as the Perl integration tests are being retired.
Update test.pl and related code to remove LibC builds.
Ding, dong, LibC is dead.
Add compress-type option and deprecate compress option. Since the compress option is boolean it won't work with multiple compression types. Add logic to cfgLoadUpdateOption() to update compress-type if it is not set directly. The compress option should no longer be referenced outside the cfgLoadUpdateOption() function.
Add common/compress/helper module to contain interface functions that work with multiple compression types. Code outside this module should no longer call specific compression drivers, though it may be OK to reference a specific compression type using the new interface (e.g., saving backup history files in gz format).
Unit tests only test compression using the gz format because other formats may not be available in all builds. It is the job of integration tests to exercise all compression types.
Additional compression types will be added in future commits.
All the methods in this module will need to be implemented via the command-line in order to get rid of LibC, so the first step is to reduce the code in the module as much as possible.
First remove storageDb() and use storageTest() instead. Then create storageTest() using pgBackRestTest::Common::Storage which has no dependencies on LibC. Now the only storage using the LibC interface is storageRepo().
Remove all link functions since those operations cannot be performed on a repo unless it is Posix, in which case the LibC interface is not needed. Same for owner().
Remove pathSync() because syncs are not required in the tests. No test data is reused after a crash.
Path create/exists functions should never be explicitly performed on a repo so remove those. File exists can be implemented by calling info() instead.
Remove encryption detection functions which were only used by Backup/Archive::Info reconstruct() which are now obsolete.
Remove all filters except pgBackRest::Storage::Filter::CipherBlock since they are not being used. That also means there are no filters returning results so remove all the result code.
Move hashSize() and pathAbsolute() into pgBackRest::Storage::Base where they can be shared between pgBackRest::Storage::Storage and pgBackRestTest::Common::Storage.
This was mostly dead code except the DB_BACKUP_ADVISORY_LOCK constant, moved to the real/all test module, and the function that pulls info from pg_control, moved to ExpireEnvTest.pm.
