These macros provide a convenient way to output debug information in tests.
They are not intended to be left in test code when it is committed to master.
If the last } of a function was marked as uncovered then the context selection would overrun into the next function.
Start checking context on the current line to prevent this. Make the same change for start context even though it doesn't seem to have an issue.
ioReadLine() calls ioRead(), which aggressively tries to fill the output buffer, but this doesn't play well with blocking reads.
Give ioReadLine() an option that tells it to read only what is available. That doesn't mean the function will never block but at least it won't do so by reading too far.
Too few lines were shown for coverage context so show the entire function if it has any missing coverage.
Update colors to work with light and dark browser modes.
The report HTML generated by lcov is overly verbose and cumbersome to navigate. Since we maintain 100% coverage it's far more interesting to look at what is not covered than what is.
The new report presents all missing coverage on a single page and excludes code that is covered for brevity.
There are many places (and the number is growing) where a zero-terminated string constant must be transformed into a String object to be usable. This pattern wastes time and memory, especially since the created string is generally used in a read-only fashion.
Define macros to create constant String objects that are initialized at compile time rather than at run time.
The storageList() command accepts a regular expression as a filter. This works fine for local filesystems where it is relatively cheap to get a complete list of files and filter them in code. However, for remote filesystems like S3 it can be expensive to fetch a complete list of files only to discard the bulk of them locally.
S3 does not filter on regular expressions but it can accept a static prefix so this function extracts a prefix from a regular expression when possible.
Even a few characters can drastically reduce the amount of data that must be fetched remotely so the function does not try to be too clever. It requires a ^ anchor and stops scanning when the first special character is found.
Allow buffers to report a lower size than their allocated size. This means a larger buffer can be used to do the work of a smaller buffer without having to create a new buffer and concatenate.
This is useful for blocking I/O where the buffer may be too large for the amount of data that is available to read.
The Wait object accepted a double in the constructor for wait time but used TimeMSec internally. This was done for compatibility with the Perl code.
Instead, use TimeMSec in the Wait constructor and make changes as needed to calling code.
Note that Perl still uses a double for its Wait object so translation is needed in some places. There are no plans to update the Perl code as it will become obsolete.
If an object free() method was called manually when a callback was set then the callback would call free() again. This meant that each free() method had to protect against a subsequent call.
Instead, clear the callback (if present) before calling memContextFree(). This is faster (since there is no unecessary callback) and removes the need for semaphores to protect against a double free().
Deleted files are showing up in git ls-files (added 57d78092) but they don't actually exist on disk.
If there is someway to exclude deleted files from ls-files then I can't find it, so just tell rsync to ignore missing files.
Code generation saved files even when they had not changed, which often caused code generation cascades. So, don't save files unless they have changed.
Use rsync to determine which files have changed since the last test run. The manifest of changed files is saved and not removed until all code generation and builds have completed. If an error occurs the work will be redone on the next run.
The eventual goal is to do all the builds from the test/repo directory created by rsync but for now it is only used to track changes.
Improve on 7794ab50 by including the build flag files directly into the Makefile as dependencies (even though they are not includes). This simplifies some of the rsync logic and allows make to do what it does best.
Also split build flag files into test, harness, and build to reduce rebuilds. Test flags are used to build test.c, harness flags are used to build the rest of the files in the test harness, and build flags are used for the files that are not directly involved in testing.
The contents were already preserved between tests in a single test.pl run but for a separate execution the entire project had to be built from scratch, which was getting slower as we added code.
Save the important build flags in a file so the new execution knows whether the build contents can be reused.
Mounting/unmounting tmpfs on /home/[user]/test takes time, forces at least 3GB of memory to be available for tests, and makes it harder to preserve data between tests.
Instead, move mounting of tmpfs to the Vagrantfile and add it to fstab so it survives reboots.
There are a number of cases where a checksum delta is more appropriate than the default time-based delta:
* Timeline has switched since the prior backup
* File timestamp is older than recorded in the prior backup
* File size changed but timestamp did not
* File timestamp is in the future compared to the start of the backup
* Online option has changed since the prior backup
A practical example is that checksum delta will be enabled after a failover to standby due to the timeline switch. In this case, timestamps can't be trusted and our recommendation has been to run a full backup, which can impact the retention schedule and requires manual intervention.
Now, a checksum delta will be performed if the backup type is incr/diff. This means more CPU will be used during the backup but the backup size will be smaller and the retention schedule will not be impacted.

We were already retrying 500 errors but 503 (rate-limiting) errors were not being retried and would cause an instant failure which aborted the command.
There are only two 5xx errors currently implemented by S3 but instead of adding 503 simply retry all 5xx errors. This is consistent with the http definition of this error class, "the server failed to fulfill an apparently valid request."

This calculation was missed when the WAL segment size was made dynamic in preparation for PostgreSQL 11.
Fix the calculation by checking the actual WAL file sizes instead of using an estimate based on WAL segment size. This is more accurate because it takes into account .history and .backup files, which are smaller. Since the calculation is done in the async process the additional processing time should not adversely affect performance.
Remove the PG_WAL_SIZE constant and instead use local constants where the old value is still required. This is only the case for some tests and PostgreSQL 8.3 which does not provide a way to get the WAL segment size from pg_control.
If an error occurred while acquiring a lock on a remote server the error would be reported correctly, but the queue max detection code was not reached. The tests failed to detect this because they fixed the connection before queue max, allowing the ccde to be reached.
Move the queue max code before the lock so it will run even when remote connections are not working. This means that no attempt will be made to transfer WAL once queue max has been exceeded, but it makes it much more likely that the code will be reach without error.
Update tests to continue errors up to the point where queue max is exceeded.
Reported by Lardière Sébastien.
The C code was warning on failure and continuing but the Perl logging code was never updated with the same feature.
Rather than add the feature to Perl, just disable file logging if the log file cannot be opened. Log files are always opened by C first, so this will eliminate the error in Perl.
Reported by vthriller.
The existing tests were not adequate to ensure the history was being added in the correct order when some entries were loaded from a file and others added with infoPgAdd().
Contributed by Cynthia Shang.
The InfoPg object was partially modified in 960ad732 to place the current history item in position 0, but infoPgDataCurrent() didn't get updated correctly.
Remove this->indexCurrent and make the current position always equal 0. Use the new lstInsert() function when adding new history items via infoPgAdd(), but continue to use lstAdd() when loading from a file for efficiency.
This does not appear to be a live bug because infoPgDataCurrent() and infoPgAdd() are not yet used in any production code. The archive-get command is the only C code using InfoPG and it always looks at the entire list of items rather than just the current item.
Suggested by Cynthia Shang.
The standard npm packages on Ubuntu 18.04 suddenly required libssl1.0 which broke the pgbackrest package builds. Installing nodejs from deb.nodesource.com seems to work fine with standard libssl.
This package is required by ScalityS3 which is used for local S3 testing.
Allow a single linefeed-terminated line to be read or written. This is useful for various protocol implementations, including HTTP and pgBackRest's protocol.
On read the maximum line size is limited to buffer-size to prevent runaway memory usage in case a linefeed is not found. This seems fine for HTTP but we may need to revisit this decision when implementing the pgBackRest protocol. Another option would be to increase the minimum buffer size (currently 16KB).
This test has been flapping since 9b9396c7. It seems to be some kind of timing issue since all integration tests pass and this unit passes on all other VMs. It only happens on Travis and is not reproducible in any development environment that we have tried.
For now, disable the test since the constant flapping is causing major delays in testing and quite a bit of time has been spent trying to identify the root cause. We are actively developing these tests and hope the issue will be identified during the course of normal development.
A number of improvements were made to the tests while searching for this issue. While none of them helped, it makes sense to keep the improvements.
Duplicating a non-multi-value option was not throwing the correct message when the option was a boolean.
The reason was that the option was being validated as a boolean before the multi-value check was being done. The validation code assumed it was operating on a string but was instead operating on a string list causing an assertion to fail.
Since it's not safe to do the multi-value check so late, move it up to the command-line and configuration file parse phases instead.
Reported by Jesper St John.
Previously this was done in two separate places by checking if an option was type hash or list.
Bad enough that it was in two places, but an upcoming bug fix will add another instance so make it a function.
There doesn't seem to be any need to implement this as a filter since current use cases (S3 authentication) work on small datasets.
So, use the single function method provided by OpenSSL for simplicity.
This constructor creates a Buffer object directly from a zero-terminated string. The old way was to create a String object first, then convert that to a Buffer using bufNewStr().
Updated in all places that used the old pattern.
PostgreSQL 11 introduces configurable WAL segment sizes, from 1MB to 1GB.
There are two areas that needed to be updated to support this: building the archive-get queue and checking that WAL has been archived after a backup. Both operations require the WAL segment size to properly build a list.
Checking the archive after a backup is still implemented in Perl and has an active database connection, so just get the WAL segment size from the database.
The archive-get command does not have a connection to the database, so get the WAL segment size from pg_control instead. This requires a deeper inspection of pg_control than has been done in the past, so it seemed best to copy the relevant data structures from each version of PostgreSQL and build a generic interface layer to address them. While this approach is a bit verbose, it has the advantage of being relatively simple, and can easily be updated for new versions of PostgreSQL.
Since the integration tests generate pg_control files for testing, teach Perl how to generate files with the correct offsets for both 32-bit and 64-bit architectures.
Use checksums rather than timestamps to determine if files have changed. This is useful in cases where the timestamps may not be trustworthy, e.g. when performing an incremental after failing over to a standby.
If checksum delta is enabled then checksums will be used for verification of resumed backups, even if they are full. Resumes have always used checksums to verify the files in the repository, enabling delta performs checksums on the database files as well.
Note that the user must manually enable this feature in cases were it would be useful or just keep in enabled all the time. A future commit will address automatically enabling the feature in cases where it seems likely to be useful.

Apparently we never needed to run this function remotely.
It will be needed by the backup checksum delta feature, so implement it now.

As we add storage drivers it's important to keep the tests for each completely separate. Rather than have three tests for each driver, standardize on having a single test unit for each driver.
This is a workaround for inefficient handling of many setjmps in gcc >= 4.9. Setjmp is used in all error handling, but in the unit tests each test macro contains an error handling block so they add up pretty quickly for large unit tests.
Enabling -ftree-coalesce-vars in affected versions reduces build time and memory requirements by nearly an order of magnitude. Even so, compiles are much slower than gcc <= 4.8.
We submitted a bug for this at: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=87316
Which was marked as a duplicate of: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=63155
For read-only repositories the Posix and CIFS drivers behave exactly the same. Since that's all we support in C right now it's valid to treat them as the same thing. An assertion has been added to remind us to add the CIFS driver before allowing the repository to be writable.
Mostly we want to make sure that the C code does not blow up when the repository type is CIFS.
