These are separated the same way in the Perl code where the remote storage driver is located in the Protocol module. However, in the C code the intention is to implement the remote storage driver as a regular driver in the storage layer rather than making a special case out of it.
So, merge the storage helpers. This also has the benefit of making the code a bit simpler.
Also separate storageSpool() and storageSpoolWrite() to make it clearer which operations require write access and to maintain consistency with the other storage helper functions.
The posix driver was developed over time and the naming is not very consistent.
Rename the files and functions to work well with other drivers and generally favor longer names since the driver functions are seldom (eventually never) used outside the driver itself.
Previously, debug log functions had to handle NULLs and truncate output to the available buffer size. This was verbose for both coding and testing.
Instead, create a function/macro combination that allows log functions to return a simple String object. The wrapper function takes care of the memory context, handles NULLs, and truncates the log string based on the available buffer size.
The archive-get command will only be executed in C if the repository is local, unencrypted, and type posix or cifs. Admittedly a limited use case, but this is just the first step in migrating the archive-get command entirely into C.
This is a direct migration from the Perl code (including messages) to integrate as seamlessly with the remaining Perl code as possible. It should not be possible to determine if the C version is running unless debug-level logging is enabled.
Basic functions to detect the presence of stanza or all stop files and error when they are present.
The functionality to detect stop files without error was not migrated. This functionality is only used by stanza-delete and will be migrated with that command.
Implement rules for generating paths within the archive part of the repository. Add a helper function, storageRepo(), to create the repository storage based on configuration settings.
The repository storage helper is located in the protocol module because it will support remote file systems in the future, just as the Perl version does.
Also, improve the existing helper functions a bit using string functions that were not available when they were written.
Use JSON code now that it is available and remove temporary hacks used to get things working initially.
Use passed storage objects rather than using storageLocal(). All storage objects in C are still local but this won't always be the case.
Also, move Postgres version conversion functions to postgres/info.c since they have no dependency on the info objects and will likely be useful elsewhere.
common/harnessLog was not ideally suited for general testing and made all the tests quite awkward. Instead, move all code used to test the common/log module into the logTest module and repurpose common/harnessLog to do log expect testing for all other tests in a cleaner way.
Add a few exceptions for config testing since the log levels are reset by default in config/parse.
Low-level functions only include stack trace in test builds while higher-level functions ship with stack trace built-in. Stack traces include all parameters passed to the function but production builds only create the parameter list when the log level is set high enough, i.e. debug or trace depending on the function.
Many options that were set per test can instead be inferred from the types, i.e. container, c, expect, and individual.
Also finish renaming Perl unit tests with the -perl suffix.
* Add storageCopy(), storageMove(), and storagePathSync().
* Separate StorageFile object into separate read and write objects.
* Abstract out Posix file read/write objects.
Configuration files are loaded from the directory specified by the --config-include-path option.
Add --config-path option for overriding the default base path of the --config and --config-include-path option.

The Perl process was exiting directly when called but that interfered with proper locking for the forked async process. Now Perl returns results to the C process which handles all errors, including signals.
Now only two types of locks can be taken: archive and backup. Most commands use one or the other but the stanza-* commands acquire both locks. This provides better protection than the old command-based locking scheme.
This implementation should be faster because it does not stat each file. It simply assumes that most directory entries are files so attempts an unlink() first. If the entry is reported by error codes to be a directory then it attempts an rmdir().
