This call to storageRepo() was used to fetch cipher options from a remote to determine if a repo cipher was enabled.
Now the main process does this work and passes the cipher options directly to the local so there is no need to pre-load the repo storage here.
If the push queue limit has been exceeded then nothing will be pushed to the repo so there is no point in checking it. Worse, a failure in the check would cause drop not to run and potentially fill up the disk, exactly the case this feature was designed to prevent.
The async version already checks the push queue limit before checking the repository so now both versions have the same behavior.
These warnings were only being reported to PostgreSQL on the console. Now they are also recorded in the async log increasing the chance that they will be seen.
This also improves coverage by requiring a warning during async processing to have a test case, which has been added.
Checking the default here was fragile. If the default were to change the code would break.
This also removes the only dependency on cfgOptionDefault() outside of the help command.
Three exclamation points are used by convention as a marker for code that needs attention before it can be committed to integration.
If the markers are in this file they come up in every search.
The tests were originally written by loading values directly into the configuration before the parser was available.
Update to use harnessCfgLoad() to simplify the tests and make them compatible with upcoming config changes.
Return a path missing error when a stanza is specified for the info command but the stanza does not exist in the repository.
Previously [] was returned, which is still the case if no stanza is specified and the repository does not exist.
lstRemoveIdx(list, 0) resulted in the entire list being moved down to the first position which could take a long time for big lists. This is a common pattern in backup/restore when processing file queues.
Instead simply move the list pointer up when first item is removed. Then on insert check if there is space at the beginning when there is no longer space at the end and do the move then. This way if a list is built and then drained without any new inserts then no move is required.
There were a number of places in the code where "hostId" was used, but hostId is just the option group index + 1 so this led to a lot of +1 and -1 to convert the id to an index and vice versa.
Instead just use the zero based index wherever possible. This is pretty much everywhere except when the host-id option is read or set, or where a message is being formatted for the user.
Also fix a bug in protocolRemoteParam() where remotes spawned from the main process could get process ids that were not 0. Only the locals should spawn remotes with process id > 0. This seems to have been harmless since the process id is only a label, but it could be confusing when debugging.
The defines for FUNCTION_LOG_VERIFY_WAL_RANGE* are not used in the current verify.c and are currently not planned in the continuing development of the verify command, so they are dead code and are therefore being removed.
bufSize() should only be used whem checking the total size of the buffer, not how much of it is currently used.
In these cases bufUsed() and bufSize() are returning the same value but benign-looking code changes could break this assumption.
iniLoad() was trimming lines which meant that a leading space would not pass checksum validation when a manifest was reloaded. Remove the trims since files we write should never contain extraneous spaces. This further diverges the format for the functions that read conf files (e.g. pgbackrest.conf) and those that read info (e.g. manifest) files.
While we are at it also allow [ and # as initial characters. # was reserved for comments but we never put comments into info files. [ denotes a section but we can get around this by never allowing arrays as values in info files, so if a line ends in ] it must be a section. This is currently the case but enforce it by adding an assert to info/info.c.
The tests were originally written by loading values directly into the configuration before the parser was available.
Update to use harnessCfgLoadRaw() to simplify the tests and make them compatible with upcoming config changes.
Note that some unreachable conditions were removed since they could not be reached via a parsed config, only by munging values directly into the config. cfgOptionTest(optionId) was removed because a non-default value must always be set. cfgOptionValid(cfgOptLogTimestamp) was removed because it is true for all commands except for cfgCmdNone, which is checked with an assert.
cfgOptionId() did not recognize deprecated options which made the help command throw errors when they were specified on the command line. cfgParseOption() will correctly identify deprecated options.
cfgParseOption() can also be used in cfgParse() to reduce code duplication when parsing info out of the option value returned by optionFind().
Finally, code the option key index separately in parse.auto.c. For now they are simply added back together but future code will need them separated.
This has always been equivalent to the ConfigCommand enum so it just adds complexity.
It was created for symmetry with ConfigDefineOption, which will also be removed soon.
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.
These constants don't scale well as the index total is increased for an option.
The core code rarely uses these options and they are easily replaced with cfgOptionName().
The tests had started to make use of the constants, so provide functions that build the option name from the optionId and, optionally, the optionKey.
WAL timeline history files were not being expired because they were small and generally not very plentiful.
However, in some cases large numbers of history files may be generated so it makes sense to remove useless history files to keep things tidy.
The history file for the oldest retained timeline is kept for debugging purposes even though it is not used for recovery.
Instead of using memmove() to manage the internal output buffer for every small read, track the current buffer position and only move data when the small read cannot be satisfied and more data is needed.
Group related options together so operations (e.g. valid, test, index total) can be performed on all options in the group.
Previously, options at the top of the hierarchy of the related options were used to do these tests. This was prone to error as option relationships changed and it was not always clear which option (or options) should be used.

* Update yum repository path for CentOS/RHEL user guide. (Contributed by Heath Lord. Reviewed by David Steele.)
Since links are not possible in the command line help just display the name of the linked section.
Also, during reference text rendering there is no out key so make sure it is defined before trying to use it.
This means the same text will appear in both places, which should make it easier to find.
Also update the link code to allow both page and section to be specified rather than only one or the other.
Update the documentation to explicitly state that versions must match across hosts when running remotely.
Add a hint to the protocol version mismatch error to help the user identify the problem.
Add older PostgreSQL versions to the u18 container that were not available before.
This also updates all minor versions for prior versions of PostgreSQL.
Scan the WAL archive for missing or invalid files and build up ranges of WAL that will be used to verify backup integrity. A number of errors and warnings are currently emitted but they should not be considered authoritative (yet).
The command is incomplete so is marked internal.
Previously, catalog versions were fixed for all versions which made maintaining the catalog versions during PostgreSQL beta and release candidate cycles very painful. A version of pgBackRest which was functionally compatible was rendered useless by a catalog version bump in PostgreSQL.
Instead use only the control version to identify a PostgreSQL version when possible. Some older versions require a catalog version to positively identify a PostgreSQL version, so include them when required.
Since the catalog number is required to work with tablespaces it will need to be stored. There's already a copy of it in backup.info so use that (even though we have been ignoring it in the C versions).
Apparently backtrace has not been used for debugging since it was broken in 7fba1f0b.
Even though this is test code it might be good to find a way to test it to prevent regressions.
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.
This condition used to give a not-very-clear error which we have been intending to improve. But in the meantime the changes in fbff299 resulted in a segfault for this condition instead because the data_directory was assumed to be non-NULL.
Fix this by explicitly throwing an error with hints when any row in pg_settings cannot be selected.
