Rather than bS3 use strStorage which can indicate more than two storage types.
For the moment there are still only two storage types but this change is required before more can be added.
This is consistent with the way BackRest and BackRest test were renamed way back in 18fd2523.
More modules will be moving to pgBackRestDoc soon so renaming now reduces churn later.
This directory was once the home of the production Perl code but since f0ef73db this is no longer true.
Move the modules to test in most cases, except where the module is expected to be useful for the doc engine beyond the expected lifetime of the Perl test code (about a year if all goes well).
The exception is pgBackRest::Version which requires more work to migrate since it is used to track pgBackRest versions.
This was the interface between Perl and C introduced in 36a5349b but since f0ef73db has only been used by the Perl integration tests. This is expensive code to maintain just for testing.
The main dependency was the interface to storage, no matter where it was located, e.g. S3. Replace this with the new-introduced repo commands (d3c83453) that allow access to repo storage via the command line.
The other dependency was on various cfgOption* functions and CFGOPT_ constants that were convenient but not necessary. Replace these with hard-coded strings in most places and create new constants for commonly used values.
Remove all auto-generated Perl code. This means that the error list will no longer be maintained automatically so copy used errors to Common::Exception.pm. This file will need to be maintained manually going forward but there is not likely to be much churn as the Perl integration tests are being retired.
Update test.pl and related code to remove LibC builds.
Ding, dong, LibC is dead.
Add compress-type option and deprecate compress option. Since the compress option is boolean it won't work with multiple compression types. Add logic to cfgLoadUpdateOption() to update compress-type if it is not set directly. The compress option should no longer be referenced outside the cfgLoadUpdateOption() function.
Add common/compress/helper module to contain interface functions that work with multiple compression types. Code outside this module should no longer call specific compression drivers, though it may be OK to reference a specific compression type using the new interface (e.g., saving backup history files in gz format).
Unit tests only test compression using the gz format because other formats may not be available in all builds. It is the job of integration tests to exercise all compression types.
Additional compression types will be added in future commits.
Recovery settings are now written into postgresql.auto.conf instead of recovery.conf. Existing recovery_target* settings will be commented out to help avoid conflicts.
A comment is added before recovery settings to identify them as written by pgBackRest since it is unclear how, in general, old settings will be removed.
recovery.signal and standby.signal are automatically created based on the recovery settings.
The prior method of tailing the docker log no longer seems reliable. Instead, keep retrying the make bucket command until it works and show the error if it times out.
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.
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.
The existing static files would not work with 32-bit or big-endian systems so create functions to generate these files dynamically rather than creating a bunch of new static files.
