Pre-calculate the value used by logAny() to improve performance and make it more likely to be inlined.
Move IF_LOG_ANY() into LOG_INTERNAL() to simplify the macros and improve performance of LOG() and LOG_PID(). If the message has no chance of being logged there's no reason to call logInternal().
Rename logWill() to logAny() because it seems more intuitive.
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.
Remove "File" and "Driver" from object names so they are shorter and easier to keep consistent.
Also remove the "driver" directory so storage implementations are visible directly under "storage".
The function pointer casting used when creating drivers made changing interfaces difficult and led to slightly divergent driver implementations. Unit testing caught production-level errors but there were a lot of small issues and the process was harder than it should have been.
Use void pointers instead so that no casts are required. Introduce the THIS_VOID and THIS() macros to make dealing with void pointers a little safer.
Since we don't want to expose void pointers in header files, driver functions have been removed from the headers and the various driver objects return their interface type. This cuts down on accessor methods and the vast majority of those functions were not being used. Move functions that are still required to .intern.h.
Remove the special "C" crypto functions that were used in libc and instead use the standard interface.
Use autoconf to provide a basic configure script. WITH_BACKTRACE is yet to be migrated to configure and the unit tests still use a custom Makefile.
Each C file must include "build.auto.conf" before all other includes and defines. This is enforced by test.pl for includes, but it won't detect incorrect define ordering.
Update packages to call configure and use standard flags to pass options.
The function provides all the file/path/link information required to build a backup manifest.
Also update storageInfo() to provide the same information for a single file.
In most cases the JSON type is known so this is more efficient than converting to Variant first, both in terms of memory and time.
Also rename some of the existing functions for consistency.
These are more efficient than creating buffers in place when needed.
After replacement discovered that bufNewStr() and BufNewZ() were not being used in the core code so removed them. This required using the macros in tests which is not the usual pattern.
Asserts were only only reported on stderr rather than being returned through the protocol layer. This did not appear to be very reliable.
Instead, report the assert through the protocol layer like any other error. Add a stack trace if an assert error or debug logging is enabled.
These work almost exactly like the String constant macros. However, a struct per variant type was required which meant custom constructors and destructors for each type.
Propagate the variant constants out into the codebase wherever they are useful.
The STRING_CONST() macro worked fine for constants but was not able to constify strings created at runtime.
Add the STR() macro to do this by using strlen() to get the size.
Also rename STRING_CONST() to STRDEF() for brevity and to match the other macro name.
Removed the "anchor" parameter because it was never used in any calls in the Perl code so it was just a dead parameter that always defaulted to true.

These constants are easier than using cfgOptionName() and cfgCommandName() and lead to cleaner code and simpler to construct messages.
String versions are provided. Eventually all the strings will be used in the config structures, but for now they are useful to avoid wrapping with strNew().
This new implementation should behave exactly like the old Perl code with the exception of updated log messages.
Remove as much of the Perl code as possible without breaking other commands.
When a repository server is configured, commands that modify the repository acquire a remote lock as well as a local lock for extra protection against multiple writers.
Instead of the custom logic used in Perl, make remote locking part of the command configuration.
This also means that the C remote needs the stanza since it is used to construct the lock name. We may need to revisit this at a later date.
The prior behavior on a global error (i.e. not file specific) was to write an individual error file for each WAL file being processed. On retry each of these error files would be removed, and if the error was persistent, they would then be recreated. In a busy environment this could mean tens or hundreds of thousands of files.
Another issue was that the error files could not be written until a list of WAL files to process had been generated. This was easy enough for archive-get but archive-push requires more processing and any errors that happened when generating the list would only be reported in the pgBackRest log rather than the PostgreSQL log.
Instead write a global.error file that applies to any WAL file that does not have an explicit ok or error file. This reduces churn and allows more errors to be reported directly to PostgreSQL.
This command was previously forked off from the archive-push command which required a bit of artificial option and log manipulation.
A separate command is easier to test and will work on platforms that don't have fork(), e.g. Windows.
This new implementation should behave exactly like the old Perl code with the exception of a few updated log messages.
Remove as much of the Perl code as possible without breaking other commands.
The C local is only used for C commands in the main process.
Some tweaking of the existing protocolGet() command was required. Originally the idea was to share the function for local and remote requests but the differences (as in Perl) were too great to make that practical.
This issue was a result of STORAGE_REPO_PATH prepending an extra stanza when the stanza was specified on the command line.
The tests missed this because by some strange coincidence the WAL dirs were empty for each test that specified a stanza. Add new tests to prevent a regression.
Fixed by Stefan Fercot.

Prior to this the Perl remote was used to satisfy C requests. This worked fine but since the remote needed to be migrated to C anyway there was no reason to wait.
Add the ProtocolServer object and tweak ProtocolClient to work with it. It was also necessary to add a mechanism to get option values from the remote so that encryption settings could be read and used in the storage object.
Update the remote storage objects to comply with the protocol changes and add the storage protocol handler.
Ideally this commit would have been broken up into smaller chunks but there are cross-dependencies in the protocol layer and it didn't seem worth the extra effort.
Rather than create _P/_PP variants for every type that needs to pass/return pointers, create FUNCTION_*_P/PP() macros that will properly pass or return any single/double pointer types.
There remain a few unresolved edge cases such as CHARPY but this handles the majority of types well.
This parameter was always useless but commit 7333b630 removed all references to it so remove the parameter at all call sites as well.
The original intention was probably to allow logging of TEST return values but that never happened.
Rather than create a CONST_ variant for every type that needs to be returned const, create a FUNCTION_LOG_RETURN_CONST() macro that will return any type as const.
Multiple status files were being created by asynchronous archiving if a high-level error occurred after one or more WAL segments had already been transferred successfully. Error files were being written for every file in the queue regardless of whether it had already succeeded. To fix this, add an option to skip writing error files when an ok file already exists.
There are other situations where both files might exist (various fsync and filesystem error scenarios) so it seems best to retry in the case that multiple status files are found rather than throwing a hard error (which then means that archiving is completely stuck). In the case of multiple status files, a warning will be logged to alert the user that something unusual is happening and the command will be retried.

Rename FUNCTION_DEBUG_* macros to FUNCTION_LOG_* to more accurately reflect what they do. Further rename FUNCTION_DEBUG_RESULT* macros to FUNCTION_LOG_RETURN* to make it clearer that they return from the function as well as logging. Leave FUNCTION_TEST_* macros as they are.
Consolidate the various ASSERT* macros into a single ASSERT macro that is always compiled out of production builds. It was difficult to figure out when an assert would be checked with all the different types in play. When ASSERTs are compiled in they will always be checked regardless of the log level -- tying these two concepts together was not a good idea.
The C info code has already been committed but this commit wires it into main.
Also remove the info Perl code and tests since they are no longer called.
The C code can't get the cipher type from the storage object because the C storage object does not have encryption baked in like the Perl code does.
Instead, check backup.info to see if encryption is enabled. This will need to rethought if another cipher type is added but for now it works fine.
Replace the repository path with just "the repository". The path is not important in this context and it is clearer to state where the stanzas are missing from.
There were some small differences in ordering and how the C version handled missing directories. It may be that the C version is more consistent, but for now it is more important to be compatible with the Perl version.
These differences were missed because the C info command was not wired into main.c so it was not being tested in regression. This commit does not fix the wiring issue because there will likely be a release soon and it is too big a change to put in at the last moment.
After a stanza-upgrade backups for the old cluster are displayed until they expire. Cluster info was output newest to oldest which meant after an upgrade the most recent backup would no longer be output last.
Update the text output ordering so the most recent backup is always output last.
