Change the mode back to 0700 earlier to reduce churn in the expect logs.
This will be especially important in a future commit that gets the defaults exclusively from the base path.
This flag was only being used by the backup command after manifestNewBuild() and had no other uses. There was a time when it was important for integration testing but the unit tests now fulfill this role.
Since backup is the only code concerned with the primary flag, move the code into the backup module.
We don't have any cross-version testing but this change was tested manually with the most recent version of pgBackRest to make sure it was tolerant of the missing primary info. When an older version of pgBackRest loads a newer manifest the primary flag will always be set to false, which is fine since it is not used.
BackupJobData has several members that backupProcessQueue() needs so it is more efficient to use them rather than passing them separately or getting them from the configuration.
Coverity pointed out that -1 could be passed to lseek() (added in a79034ae) after a file failed to open because it is missing. Overall it seems simpler to enclose the success code in an else block to prevent any repeats of this mistake in the future.
This was not an active bug because there are currently no cases where we do read offsets in a file that is allowed to be missing.
Also remove the result flag since it is easier to just check that the file descriptor is valid.
Updating the manifest this way was not a great idea because it broke abstraction for the object. This meant certain changes to the interface and internals were not possible because the code was modifying internal manifest data.
Instead track the user replacements entirely in the restore module.
This also has the benefit of eliminating a pass over the manifest path/file/link lists.
AWS S3 integrates with AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS) to provide server side encryption of S3 objects. This integration protects objects under encryption keys that never leave AWS KMS unencrypted.
The range feature allows reading out an arbitrary chunk of a file and will be important for efficient small file support.
Now that all drivers are required to support ranges remove the storageFeatureLimitRead feature flag that was implemented only by the Posix driver.
Do the replacement anywhere cfgOptionGroupIdxToKey() is being used to construct a group name in a message. cfgOptionGroupName() is better for this case since it also includes the name of the group so that it does not need to be repeated in each message.
The backup LSNs are useful for performing LSN-based PITR. LSNs will not be displayed in the general text output (without --set) because they are probably not useful enough to deserve their own line.
There is no evidence that users need 8.3/8.4 anymore but it does cost us in terms of development and testing, especially now that we have a number of new backup/restore features planned.
It seems to make sense to remove this support now. If there are users who need to use/migrate from these versions they can use an older version of pgBackRest.

Utilize httpUrlNewParseP() to parse endpoint and port from the URL in the S3 and Azure helpers to avoid issues where protocol was not expected to be part of the URL.
This leak was caused by the file descriptor variable getting clobbered after a long jump. Mark it as volatile to fix.
Testing this is a bit complex because the issue only happens in optimized builds, if at all. Put the test into the performance suite, which is always optimized, until a better idea presents itself.
If a path/file was remapped to a link using either --link-map or --link-all there would be no affect if the path/file already existed. If a link existed it would be properly updated and converting a link to a path/file also worked.
The issue happened during delta cleanup, which failed to check if the existing path/file had been remapped to a link.
Add checks for newly mapped path/file links and remove the old path/file we required.
This was previously a warning but the warning is easy to miss so a lot of time may be lost restoring and recovering a backup that will not hit the target.
Since this is technically a breaking change, add an "important note" about the change to the release.
In the backup command, add a warning if start-fast is disabled and the PostgreSQL checkpoint_timeout is greater than db-timeout.
In such cases, we might timeout before the checkpoint occurs and the backup really starts.
Fail the backup if a cluster stops or the standby is promoted. Previously, shutting down the primary would cause an error but it was not detected until the end of the backup. Now the error will happen sooner and a promotion on the standby will also cause an error.
SIGHUP allows the configuration to be reloaded. Note that the configuration will not be updated in child processes that have already started.
SIGTERM terminates the server process gracefully and sends SIGTERM to all child processes. This also gives the tests an easy way to stop the server.
Add the following checks:
* Checkpoint is updated in pg_control after pg_start_backup(). This helps ensure that PostgreSQL and pgBackRest have a consistent view of the storage and that PGDATA paths match.
* Timeline of backup start WAL file matches pg_control. Hard to see how this one could get hit, but we have the power...
* Standby is on the same timeline as the primary. If not, this standby is not following the primary.
* Last standby checkpoint is not greater than the backup checkpoint. If so, this standby is not following the primary.
This also requires some additional plumbing to read/write timeline/checkpoint from pg_control and parse timelines from WAL filenames. There were some changes in the backup tests caused by the fact that pg_control now has different contents for each backup.
The check to ensure that the required checkpoint was reached on the standby should also be updated to use pg_control (it currently uses pg_control_checkpoint()), but that requires non-trivial changes to the test harness and will need to wait.
Eliminate summing and passing of copied files sizes for logging backup size.
Instead, utilize infoBackupDataByLabel() to pull the backup size for the log message.
This allows boolean boolean command-line options to work like their config file equivalents.
At least for now this behavior will remain undocumented since all examples in the documentation will continue to use the standard syntax. The idea is that it will "just work" when options are copied out of config files rather than generating an error.
Previously the archive was only checked at the end of the backup to ensure all WAL required to make the backup consistent was present. The problem was that if archiving was not functioning then the backup had to complete before the user found out, which could be a while if the database was large enough.
Add an archive check immediately after backup start so failures are reported earlier.
The trick is to determine which WAL to check. If the repo is new there may not be any WAL in it and pg_start_backup() will not switch the WAL segment if it is empty. These are both likely scenarios when setting up and/or testing pgBackRest.
If the WAL segment is switched by pg_start_backup(), then check the archive for the segment that was detected prior to backup start. This should be common on normal running clusters with regular activity. Note that this might not be the segment immediately prior to the backup start segment if WAL volume is high.
If pg_start_backup() did not switch the WAL then we can force a switch on PostgreSQL >= 9.3 by creating a restore point. In that case the WAL to check will be the backup start WAL. This is most likely to happen on idle systems, during testing, or immediately after a repo switch.
An advantage of this approach other than earlier notification is that the backup directory will not be created so no resume will be attempted on the next backup.
Note that some additional churn was created in backup.c because the load of archive.info needs to be done earlier.
Properly log the size of files copied during the backup, matching the backup size returned from the info command.
In the reference issue, the incremental backup after switchover logs the size of all files evaluated rather than only the size of the files copied in the backup.
Size option default and allowed values were displayed in bytes, which was confusing for the user.
This also lays the groundwork for adding units to time options.
Move option parsing functions into a common module so they can be used from the build module.
Allows users to provide an executable to be used when pgbackrest generates command strings that expect to invoke pgbackrest. These generated commands are written to files by pgbackrest, e.g. recovery.conf.
The error handler used a loop to process try, catch, and finally blocks. This worked fine but static analysis tools like Coverity did not understand that the finally block would always run and so there were false positives about double-free, unfreed resource, etc.
This implementation removes the loop, which simplifies everything, and makes it clear that the finally block will always run. This cuts down on Coverity false positives.
This implementation also catches lack of coverage on empty catch blocks so a few test fixes were committed separately in d74fe7a.
A small refactor in backup.c is required because gcc 10.3.1 on Fedora 33 complains that the reason variable may be used uninitialized. It's not clear why this is the case, but reducing the scope of the TRY block fixes the issue.
Rather the converting String to StringIds at runtime, store defaults in StringId format in parse.auto.c and convert user input to StringId during parsing.
The compress-type, repo-type and log-level-* options have allow lists, which means it is more efficient to treat them as StringIds.
For compress-type and log-level-* also update the functions that convert them to enums.
The strIdFrom*() forced the caller to pick an encoding, which led to a number of TRY...CATCH blocks in the code. In practice the caller does not care which encoding is used as long as the string is valid for some encoding.
Update the strIdFrom*() function to try all possible encodings and only throw an error when the string is not valid for any of them.
