The postgres/pageChecksum module was designed as an interface to the C structs for the Perl code. The new C code can do this directly so no need for an interface.
Move the remaining test for pgPageChecksum() into the postgres/interface test module.
Page size is passed around a lot but in fact it can only have one value, PG_PAGE_SIZE_DEFAULT, which is checked when pg_control is loaded. There may be an argument for supporting multiple page sizes in the future but for now just use the constant to simplify the code.
There is also a significant performance benefit. Because pageSize was being used in pageChecksumBlock() the main loop was neither unrolled nor vectorized (-funroll-loops -ftree-vectorize) as it is now with a constant loop boundary.
These data structures were copied a few places (but only once in the core code) so put them in a place where everyone can use them.
To do this create a new file, static.auto.h, to contain data types and macros that have stayed the same through all the versions of PostgreSQL that we support. This allows us to have single, non-versioned set of headers and code for stable data structures like page headers.
Migrate a few types from version.auto.h that are required for page header structures and pull the remaining types from PostgreSQL directly.
We had previously renamed xlog to wal so update those where required since we won't be modifying the PostgreSQL names anymore.
Previously memNew() used memset() to initialize all struct members to 0, NULL, false, etc. While this appears to work in practice, it is a violation of the C specification. For instance, NULL == 0 must be true but neither NULL nor 0 must be represented with all zero bits.
Instead use designated initializers to initialize structs. These guarantee that struct members will be properly initialized even if they are not specified in the initializer. Note that due to a quirk in the C99 specification at least one member must be explicitly initialized even if it needs to be the default value.
Since pre-zeroed memory is no longer required, adjust memAllocInternal()/memReallocInternal() to return raw memory and update dependent functions accordingly. All instances of memset() have been removed except in debug/test code where needed.
Add memMewPtrArray() to allocate an array of pointers and automatically set all pointers to NULL.
Rename memGrowRaw() to the more logical memResize().
This macro was created before the String object existed so subsequent usage with String always included a lot of strPtr() wrapping.
TEST_RESULT_STR_Z() had already been introduced but a wholesale replacement of TEST_RESULT_STR() was not done since the priority was on the C migration.
Update all calls to (old) TEST_RESULT_STR() with one of the following variants: (new) TEST_RESULT_STR(), TEST_RESULT_STR_Z(), TEST_RESULT_Z(), TEST_RESULT_Z_STR().
Three major changes were required to get this working:
1) Provide the path to pgbackrest in the build directory when running outside a container. Tests in a container will continue to install and run against /usr/bin/pgbackrest.
1) Set a per-test lock path so tests don't conflict on the default /tmp/pgbackrest path. Also set a per-test log-path while we are at it.
2) Use localhost instead of a custom host for TLS test connections. Tests in containers will continue to update /etc/hosts and use the custom host.
Add infrastructure and update harnessCfgLoad*() to get the correct exe and paths loaded for testing.
Since new tests are required to verify that running outside a container works, also rework the tests in Travis CI to provide coverage within a reasonable amount of time. Mainly, break up to doc tests by VM and run an abbreviated unit test suite on co6 and co7.
Previously only a single filter could be pushed to the remote since order was not being maintained. Now the filters are strictly ordered.
Results are returned from the remote and set in the local IoFilterGroup so they can be retrieved.
Expand remote filter support to include all filters.
If the file is compressible (i.e. not encrypted or already compressed) it can be marked as such in storageNewRead()/storageNewWrite(). If the file is being read from/written to a remote it will be compressed in transit using gzip.
Simplify filter group handling by having the IoRead/IoWrite objects create the filter group automatically. This removes the need for a lot of NULL checking and has a negligible effect on performance since a filter group needs to be created eventually unless the source file is missing.
Allow filters to be created using a VariantList so filter parameters can be passed to the remote.
This filter exactly mimics the behavior of the Perl filter so is a drop-in replacement.
The filter is not integrated yet since it requires the Perl-to-C storage layer interface coming in a future commit.
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".
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.
