Filter groups could not be manipulated once they had been assigned to an IO object. Now they can be freely manipulated up to the time the IO object is opened.
Also, move the filter group into the IO object's context so they don't need to be tracked separately.
The previous implementation searched for the file in a list which worked but was not optimal. For arbitrary bucket structures it would also produce a false negative if a match was not found in the first 1000 entries. This was not an issue for our repo structure since the max hits on exists calls is two but it seems worth fixing to avoid future complications.
The C code was passing the host (if specified) with the request which could force the server into path-style URLs, which are not supported.
Instead, use the Perl logic of always passing bucket.endpoint in the request no matter what host is used for the HTTPS connection.
It's an open question whether we should support path-style URLs but since we don't it's useless to tell the server otherwise. Note that Amazon S3 has deprecated path-style URLs and they are no longer supported on newly created buckets.
This was being removed by rsync which forced a full build even when a partial should have been fine. Rewrite the file after the rsync so it is preserved.
Allow commands to be skipped by default in the command help but still work if help is requested for the command directly. There may be other uses for the flag in the future.
Update help for ls now that it is exposed.
Allows listing repo paths/files from the command-line, to be used primarily for testing and debugging.
This command is internal-only so the interface may change at any time without notice.
The documentation was relying on a ScalityS3 container built for testing which wasn't very transparent. Instead, use the stock minio container and configure it in the documentation.
Also, install certificates and CA so that TLS verification can be enabled.
Not all storage types support paths as a physical thing that must be created/destroyed. Add a feature to determine which drivers use paths and simplify the driver API as much as possible given that knowledge and by implementing as much path logic as possible in the Storage object.
Remove the ignoreMissing parameter from pathSync() since it is not used and makes little sense.
Create a standard list of error messages for the drivers to use and apply them where the code was modified -- there is plenty of work still to be done here.
These functions are not required for repository storage so make them optional and error if they are not implemented for non-repository storage, .e.g. pg or spool.
The goal is to simplify the drivers (e.g. S3) that are intended only for repository storage.
The prior behavior was to return NULL so the caller would know the path was missing, but this is rarely useful, complicates the calling code, and increases the chance of segfaults.
The .nullOnMissing param has been added to enable the prior behavior.
The release notes are generally a direct reflection of the git log. So, ease the burden of maintaining the release notes by using the git log to determine what needs to be added.
Currently only non-dev items are required to be matched to a git commit but the goal is to account for all commits.
The git history cache is generated from the git log but can be modified to correct typos and match the release notes as they evolve. The commit hash is used to identify commits that have already been added to the cache.
There's plenty more to do here. For instance, links to the commits for each release item should be added to the release notes.
The C code is designed to be efficient rather than deterministic at the debug log level. As we move more testing from integration to unit tests it makes less sense to try and maintain the expect logs at this log level.
Most of the expect logs have already been moved to detail level but mock/all still had tests at debug level. Change the logging defaults in the config file and remove as many references to log-level-console as possible.
/ is escaped in the spec but the Perl renderer we use does not escape it which leads to checksum mismatches between the two sets of code.
This particular escape seems to be a more recent addition to the spec and is targeted toward embedding JSON in JavaScript.
\/ is still allowed when parsing JSON.
The new name is preferred because pgBackRest does not support any SSL protocol versions (they are all considered to be insecure).
The old name will continue to be accepted.
This is just the part of restore run by the local helper processes, not the entire command.
Even so, various optimizations in the code (like pipelining and optimizations for zero-length files) should make the restore command faster on object stores.
Bug Fixes:

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.
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.
Filters had different ideas about what "done" meant and this added complication to the group filter processing. For example, gzip decompression would detect end of stream and mark the filter as done before it had been flushed.
Improve the IoFilter interface to give a consistent definition of done across all filters, i.e. no filter can be done until it has started flushing no matter what the underlying driver reports. This removes quite a bit of tricky logic in the processing loop which tried to determine when a filter was "really" done.
Also improve management of the input buffers by pointing directly to the prior output buffer (or the caller's input) to eliminate loops that set/cleared these buffers.
If content was zero-length then the IO object was not created. This put the burden on the caller to test that the IO object existed before checking eof.
Instead, create an IO object even if it will immediately return eof. This has little cost and makes the calling code simpler.
Also add an explicit test for zero-length files in S3 and a few assertions.
The rules for when a C remote is required are getting complicated and will get worse when restoreFile() is migrated.
Instead, set the --c option when a C remote is required. This option will be removed when the remote is entirely implemented in C.
Most of the *Free() functions are pretty generic so add macros to make creating them as easy as possible.
Create a distinction between *Free() functions that the caller uses to free memory and callbacks that free third-party resources. There are a number of cases where a driver needs to free resources but does not need a normal *Free() because it is handled by the interface.
Add common/object.h for macros that make object maintenance easier. This pattern can also be used for many more object functions.
Rename memContextCallback() to memContextCallbackSet() to be more consistent with other parts of the code.
Free all context memory when an exception is thrown from a callback. Previously only the child contexts would be freed and this resulted in some allocations being lost. In practice this is probably not a big deal since the process will likely terminate shortly, but there may well be cases where that is not true.
Add GLUE() macro which is useful for creating identifiers.
Move MACRO_TO_STR() here and rename it STRINGIFY(). This appears to be the standard name for this type of macro and it is also an awesome name.
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.
