- Add detail to errors when info files are loaded with incorrect encryption settings.
- Throw FileMissingError rather than FileOpenError when both copies of the info file are missing.
- If one file is present (but errors) and the other is missing, then return the error for the file that was present.

The previous error message only showed the last error. In addition, some errors were missed (such as directory permission errors) that could prevent the copy from being checked.
Show both errors below a generic "unable to load" error. Details are now given explaining exactly why the primary and copy failed.
Previously if one file could not be loaded a warning would be output. This has been removed because it is not clear what the user should do in this case. Should they do a stanza-create --force? Maybe the best idea is to automatically repair the corrupt file, but on the other hand that might just spread corruption if pgBackRest makes the wrong choice.
The decryption filter was added in archiveGetFile() and archiveGetCheck() was modified to return the WAL decryption key stored in archive.info. The rest was plumbing.
The mock/archive/1 integration test added encryption to provide coverage for the new code paths while mock/archive/2 dropped encryption to provide coverage for the existing code paths. This caused some churn in the expect logs but there was no change in behavior.
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.
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.
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.
Previously it was the responsibility of the individual tests to clean up after themselves. Now the test harness now does the cleanup automatically.
This means that some paths/files need to be recreated with each run but that doesn't happen very often.
An attempt has been made to remove all redundant cleanup code but it's hard to know if everything has been caught. No issues will be caused by anything that was missed, but they will continue to chew up time in the tests.
These are separated the same way in the Perl code where the remote storage driver is located in the Protocol module. However, in the C code the intention is to implement the remote storage driver as a regular driver in the storage layer rather than making a special case out of it.
So, merge the storage helpers. This also has the benefit of making the code a bit simpler.
Also separate storageSpool() and storageSpoolWrite() to make it clearer which operations require write access and to maintain consistency with the other storage helper functions.
The external storage interfaces (Storage, StorageFileRead, etc.) have been stable for a while, but internally they were calling the posix driver functions directly.
Create driver interfaces for storage, fileRead, and fileWrite and remove all references to the posix driver outside storage/driver/posix (with the exception of a direct call to pathRemove() in Perl LibC).
Posix is still the only available driver so more adjustment may be needed, but this should represent the bulk of the changes.
The archive-get command will only be executed in C if the repository is local, unencrypted, and type posix or cifs. Admittedly a limited use case, but this is just the first step in migrating the archive-get command entirely into C.
This is a direct migration from the Perl code (including messages) to integrate as seamlessly with the remaining Perl code as possible. It should not be possible to determine if the C version is running unless debug-level logging is enabled.
The lock is now released before the fork and reacquired after the fork so the parent process no longer needs to worry about clearing the lock.
This is the same locking mechanism that will be used once archive-get-async is exec'd as a separate command, so introduce it now to simplify testing.
The info messages were spread around and logged differently based on the execution path and in some cases logged nothing at all.
Temporarily track the async server status with a flag so that info messages are not output in the async process. The async process will be refactored as a separate command to be exec'd in a future commit.
By default Valgrind does not exit with an error code when a non-fatal error is detected, e.g. unfreed memory. Use the --error-exitcode option to enabled this behavior.
Update some minor issues discovered in the tests as a result. Luckily, no issues were missed in the core code.
common/harnessLog was not ideally suited for general testing and made all the tests quite awkward. Instead, move all code used to test the common/log module into the logTest module and repurpose common/harnessLog to do log expect testing for all other tests in a cleaner way.
Add a few exceptions for config testing since the log levels are reset by default in config/parse.
This is more efficient overall and allows the caller to specify how many bytes will be read on each call. Reads are appended if the buffer already contains data but the buffer size will never increase.
Allow Buffer object "used size" to be different than "allocated size". Add functions to manage used size and remaining size and update automatically when possible.
Low-level functions only include stack trace in test builds while higher-level functions ship with stack trace built-in. Stack traces include all parameters passed to the function but production builds only create the parameter list when the log level is set high enough, i.e. debug or trace depending on the function.
