David Steele a9feaba9e5 Add memContextCallbackClear() to prevent double free() calls. 
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().

<description>The {[project]} Releases detail each version of the software and lists the changes made in each version.</description>
<intro>
<text><backrest/> release numbers consist of two parts, major and minor. A major release <i>may</i> break compatibility with the prior major release, but <proper>v2</proper> releases are fully compatible with <proper>v1</proper> repositories and will accept all <proper>v1</proper> options. Minor releases can include bug fixes and features but do not change the repository format and strive to avoid changing options and naming.
Documentation for the <proper>v1</proper> release can be found <link url="{[backrest-url-base]}/1">here</link>.
The notes for a release may also contain <quote>Additional Notes</quote> but changes in this section are only to documentation or the test suite and have no direct impact the on the <backrest/> codebase.</text>

<release-item-ideator id="jason.odonnell"/>
</release-item-contributor-list>
<p>Remove incompletely implemented <br-option>online</br-option> option from the <cmd>check</cmd> command. Offline operation runs counter to the purpose of this command, which is to check if archiving and backups are working correctly.</p>

<p>Fix issue when a boolean option (e.g. <br-option>delta</br-option>) was specified more than once.</p>
</release-item>
</release-bug-list>
<release-feature-list>
<release-item>
<p>Allow any option to be set in an environment variable. This includes options that previously could only be specified on the command line, e.g. <br-option>stanza</br-option>, and secret options that could not be specified on the command-line, e.g. <br-option>repo1-s3-key-secret</br-option>.</p>

<p>Exclude temporary and unlogged relation (table/index) files from backup. Implemented using the same logic as the patches adding this feature to <postgres/>, <link url="https://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/8694cc96b52a967a49725f32be7aa77fd3b6ac25">8694cc96</link> and <link url="https://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/920a5e500a119b03356fb1fb64a677eb1aa5fc6f">920a5e50</link>. Temporary relation exclusion is enabled in <postgres/> &amp;ge; <id>9.0</id>. Unlogged relation exclusion is enabled in <postgres/> &amp;ge; <id>9.1</id>, where the feature was introduced.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<release-item-contributor-list>
<release-item-reviewer id="cynthia.shang"/>
</release-item-contributor-list>
<p>Allow arbitrary directories and/or files to be excluded from a backup. Misuse of this feature can lead to inconsistent backups so read the <br-option>--exclude</br-option> documentation carefully before using.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Add <br-option>log-subprocess</br-option> option to allow file logging for <id>local</id> and <id>remote</id> subprocesses.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p><postgres/> 11 Beta 3 support.</p>

<release-item-contributor-list>
<release-item-ideator id="sarah.conway"/>

<p>Improve error message when a command is missing the <br-option>stanza</br-option> option.</p>
</release-item>
</release-improvement-list>
<release-development-list>
<release-item>
<p>Validate configuration options in a single pass. By pre-calculating and storing the option dependencies in <file>parse.auto.c</file> validation can be completed in a single pass, which is both simpler and faster.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Add gzip compression/decompression filters for C.</p>

</release-item>
<release-item>
<release-item-contributor-list>
<release-item-reviewer id="cynthia.shang"/>
</release-item-contributor-list>
<p>Abstract IO layer out of the storage layer. This allows the routines to be used for IO objects that do not have a storage representation. Implement buffer read and write IO objects. Implement filters and update <code>cryptoHash</code> to use the new interface. Implement size and buffer filters.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p><code>storageFileRead()</code> accepts a buffer for output rather than creating one. 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.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>

<p>Manifest improvements. Require <postgres/> catalog version when instantiating a <code>Manifest</code> object (and not loading it from disk). Prevent manifest from being built more than once. Limit manifest build recursion (i.e. links followed) to sixteen levels to detect link loops.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Do nothing in <code>memContextMove()</code> when the context is already in the specified parent.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Allow command/option constants to autonumber in both C and Perl to reduce churn when a new command/option is added.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Show exact log level required for stack trace param output instead of just <quote>debug</quote>.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Update <code>Archive::Info->archiveIdList()</code> to return a valid error code instead of unknown.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Add <code>cvtBoolToConstZ()</code> to simplify conversion of boolean to string.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Add <code>cvtZToUInt()</code> to convert string to unsigned int.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Enable <id>-Wstrict-prototypes</id>, <id>-Wpointer-arith</id>, <id>-Wduplicated-branches</id>, <id>-Wvla</id>, and <id>-Wduplicated-cond</id> and update code to conform where necessary.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Rename error-handling variables in <code>Main.pm</code> to conform to standard.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Remove redundant lines from embedded Perl by combining blank lines.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Define cipher magic size with <code>sizeof()</code> rather than using a constant.</p>

<release-item>
<p>Add <code>cvtCharToZ()</code> and macro for debugging <code>char</code> params.</p>
</release-item>

<p>Stop trying to arrange contributors in <file>release.xml</file> by last/first name. Contributor names have always been presented in the release notes exactly as given, but we tried to assign internal IDs based on last/first name which can be hard to determine and ultimately doesn't make sense.

<release-development-list>
<release-item>
<p>Allow containers to be defined in a document. The defined containers are built before the document build begins which allows them to be reused.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Move most host setup to containers defined in the documentation. This includes <postgres/> installation which had previously been included in the documentation. This way produces faster builds and there is no need for us to document <postgres/> installation.</p>
</release-item>
</release-development-list>

<release-item>
<p>Error if LibC build is performed outside the test environment. LibC is no longer required for production builds.</p>
</release-item>
</release-improvement-list>
<release-development-list>
<release-item>
<p>Use pre-built images from Docker Hub when the container definition has not changed. Downloading an image is quite a bit faster than building a new image from scratch and saves minutes per test run in CI.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Refactor the <code>common/log</code> tests to not depend on <code>common/harnessLog</code>. <code>common/harnessLog</code> was not ideally suited for general testing and made all the tests quite awkward. Instead, move all code used to test the <code>common/log</code> module into the <code>logTest</code> module and repurpose <code>common/harnessLog</code> 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 <code>config/parse</code>.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Add <setting>--log-level-test</setting> option. This allows setting the test log level independently from the general test harness setting, but current only works for the C tests. It is useful for seeing log output from functions on the console while a test is running.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Improve error reporting for <code>TEST_ASSIGN()</code> and <code>TEST_RESULT_VOID()</code> macros.</p>
</release-item>

<release date="2018-07-05" version="2.04" title="Critical Bug Fix for Backup Resume">
<release-core-list>
<p><b>IMPORTANT NOTE</b>: This release fixes a critical bug in the backup resume feature. All resumed backups prior to this release should be considered inconsistent. A backup will be resumed after a prior backup fails, unless <br-option>resume=n</br-option> has been specified. A resumed backup can be identified by checking the backup log for the message <quote>aborted backup of same type exists, will be cleaned to remove invalid files and resumed</quote>. If the message exists, do not use this backup or any backup in the same set for a restore and check the restore logs to see if a resumed backup was restored. If so, there may be inconsistent data in the cluster.</p>

</release-bug-list>
<release-feature-list>
<release-item>
<p>Add asynchronous, parallel <cmd>archive-get</cmd>. This feature maintains a queue of WAL segments to help reduce latency when <postgres/> requests a WAL segment with <pg-option>restore_command</pg-option>.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<release-item-contributor-list>
<release-item-contributor id="cynthia.shang"/>

<p>Add support for additional <backrest/> configuration files in the directory specified by the <br-option>--config-include-path</br-option> option. Add <br-option>--config-path</br-option> option for overriding the default base path of the <br-option>--config</br-option> and <br-option>--config-include-path</br-option> option.</p>

</release-item-contributor-list>
<p>Add <br-option>repo-s3-token</br-option> option to allow temporary credentials tokens to be configured. <backrest/> currently has no way to request new credentials so the entire command (e.g. <cmd>backup</cmd>, <cmd>restore</cmd>) must complete before the credentials expire.</p>

<release-improvement-list>
<release-item>

</release-item-contributor-list>
<p>Update the <br-option>archive-push-queue-max</br-option>, <br-option>manifest-save-threshold</br-option>, and <br-option>buffer-size</br-option> options to accept values in <id>KB</id>, <id>MB</id>, <id>GB</id>, <id>TB</id>, or <id>PB</id> where the multiplier is a power of <id>1024</id>.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Make backup/restore path sync more efficient. Scanning the entire directory can be very expensive if there are a lot of small tables. The backup manifest contains the path list so use it to perform syncs instead of scanning the backup/restore path.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Show command parameters as well as command options in initial info log message.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Rename <br-option>archive-queue-max</br-option> option to <br-option>archive-push-queue-max</br-option> to avoid confusion with the new <br-option>archive-get-queue-max</br-option> option. The old option name will continue to be accepted.</p>
</release-item>
</release-improvement-list>
<release-development-list>
<release-item>
<p>Make <path>backup.history</path> sync more efficient. Only the <path>backup.history/[year]</path> directory was being synced, so check if the <path>backup.history</path> is newly created and sync it as well.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Move async forking and more error handling to C. The Perl process was exiting directly when called but that interfered with proper locking for the forked async process. Now Perl returns results to the C process which handles all errors, including signals.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Improved lock implementation written in C. Now only two types of locks can be taken: <id>archive</id> and <id>backup</id>. Most commands use one or the other but the <cmd>stanza-*</cmd> commands acquire both locks. This provides better protection than the old command-based locking scheme.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Storage object improvements. Convert all functions to variadic functions. Enforce read-only storage. Add <code>storageLocalWrite()</code> helper function. Add <code>storageCopy()</code>, <code>storageExists()</code>, <code>storageMove()</code>, <code>storageNewRead()</code>/<code>storageNewWrite()</code>, <code>storagePathCreate()</code>, <code>storagePathRemove()</code>, <code>storagePathSync()</code>, and <code>storageRemove()</code>. Add <code>StorageFileRead</code> and <code>StorageFileWrite</code> objects. Abstract Posix driver code into a separate module. Call <code>storagePathRemove()</code> from the Perl Posix driver.</p>

<p>Improve <code>String</code> and <code>StringList</code> objects. Add <code>strUpper()</code>, <code>strLower()</code>, <code>strLstExists()</code>, <code>strLstExistsZ()</code>, <code>strChr()</code>, <code>strSub()</code>, <code>strSubN()</code>, and <code>strTrunc()</code>.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Improve <code>Buffer</code> object. Add <code>bufNewC()</code>, <code>bufEq()</code> and <code>bufCat()</code>. Only reallocate buffer when the size has changed.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Add <code>pgControlInfo()</code> to read <file>pg_control</file> and determine the <postgres/> version.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Add <code>walSegmentNext()</code> and <code>walSegmentRange()</code>.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Error handling improvments. Add <code>THROWP_</code>* macro variants for error handling. These macros allow an <code>ErrorType</code> pointer to be passed and are required for functions that may return different errors based on a parameter. Add <code>_FMT</code> variants for all <code>THROW</code> macros so format types are checked by the compiler.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Split <code>cfgLoad()</code> into multiple functions to make testing easier. Mainly this helps with unit tests that need to do log expect testing.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Allow <code>MemContext</code> objects to be copied to a new parent. This makes it easier to create objects and then copy them to another context when they are complete without having to worry about freeing them on error. Update <code>List</code>, <code>StringList</code>, and <code>Buffer</code> to allow moves. Update <code>Ini</code> and <code>Storage</code> to take advantage of moves.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Full branch coverage in C code.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Refactor <id>usec</id> to <id>msec</id> in <code>common/time.c</code>. The implementation provides <id>usec</id> resolution but this is not needed in practice and it makes the interface more complicated due to the extra zeros.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Replace <code>THROW_ON_SYS_ERROR()</code> with <code>THROW_SYS_ERROR()</code>. The former macro was hiding missing branch coverage for critical error handling.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Start work on C handle io object and use it to output help.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Don't copy <id>CFGDEF_NAME_ALT</id> or <id>CFGDEF_INHERIT</id> when processing config option inheritance.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Split debug and assert code into separate headers. Assert can be used earlier because it only depends on the error-handler and not logging. Add <code>ASSERT()</code> macro which is preserved in production builds.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Cleanup C types. Remove <code>typec.h</code>. Order all typdefs above local includes.</p>
</release-item>

<p>Add logic to find the real oid of the <id>test1</id> database during restore testing.</p>

<release-feature-list>
<release-item>
<p>Use <proper>lcov</proper> for C unit test coverage reporting. Switch from <proper>Devel::Cover</proper> because it would not report on branch coverage for reports converted from <proper>gcov</proper>. Incomplete branch coverage for a module now generates an error. Coverage of unit tests is not displayed in the report unless they are incomplete for either statement or branch coverage.</p>
</release-item>
</release-feature-list>
<release-development-list>
<release-item>
<p>Move test definitions to <file>test/define.yaml</file>. The location is better because it is no longer buried in the Perl test libs. Also, the data can be easily accessed from C.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Move help/version integration tests to <id>mock/all</id>. Help and version are covered by unit tests, so we really just to need to make sure there is output when called from the command line.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Move <id>archive-stop</id> and <id>expire</id> tests to the <id>mock</id> module. These are mock integration tests so they should be grouped with the other mock integration tests.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Add <code>harnessCfgLoad()</code> test function, which allows a new config to be loaded for unit testing without resetting log functions, opening a log file, or taking locks.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Add <code>HARNESS_FORK</code> macros for tests that require fork(). A standard pattern for tests makes fork() easier to use and should help prevent some common mistakes.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Add <code>TEST_ERROR_FMT</code> macro to simplify testing of formatted error messages.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Generate code counts for all source files. The source files are also classified by type and purpose.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Include VM type in <id>gcov</id> path to avoid conflicts between VMs with different architectures.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Improve logic for smart builds to include version changes. Skip version checks when testing in <setting>--dev</setting> mode.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Use <proper>pip 9.03</proper> in test VMs. <proper>pip 10</proper> drops support for <proper>Python 2.6</proper> which is still used by the older test VMs.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Allow <code>-DDEBUG_UNIT</code> to be suppressed to test how debug macros behave.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Rename Perl tests so they don't conflict with their C counterparts.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Divide tests into three types (<id>unit</id>, <id>integration</id>, <id>performance</id>). Many options that were set per test can instead be inferred from the types, i.e. <id>container</id>, <id>c</id>, <id>expect</id>, and <id>individual</id>.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Try tweaking time sync settings to prevent clock drift rather than restarting <id>VBoxService</id> on every test run.</p>

<release-item-reviewer id="cynthia.shang"/>
</release-item-contributor-list>
<p>The <cmd>archive-push</cmd> command is now partially coded in C which allows the <postgres/> <file>archive_command</file> to run significantly faster when processing status messages from the asynchronous archive process.</p>
</release-item>
</release-feature-list>
<release-improvement-list>
<release-item>
<release-item-contributor-list>
<release-item-contributor id="cynthia.shang"/>
</release-item-contributor-list>
<p>Improve <cmd>check</cmd> command to verify that the backup manifest can be built.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Improve performance of HTTPS client. Buffering now takes the <code>pending</code> bytes on the socket into account (when present) rather than relying entirely on <code>select()</code>. In some instances the final bytes would not be flushed until the connection was closed.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Improve S3 delete performance. The constant <id>S3_BATCH_MAX</id> had been replaced with a hard-coded value of 2, probably during testing.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Allow any non-command-line option to be reset to default on the command-line. This allows options in <file>pgbackrest.conf</file> to be reset to default which reduces the need to write new configuration files for specific needs.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>The C library is now required. This eliminates conditional loading and eases development of new library features.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>The <file>{[project-exe]}</file> executable is now a C binary instead of Perl. This allows certain time-critical commands (like async <cmd>archive-push</cmd>) to run more quickly.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Rename <id>db-*</id> options to <id>pg-*</id> and <id>backup-*</id> options to <id>repo-*</id> to improve consistency. <id>repo-*</id> options are now indexed although currently only one is allowed.</p>
</release-item>
</release-improvement-list>
<release-development-list>
<release-item>
<p>Implement <cmd>help</cmd> command in C.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Implement <cmd>version</cmd> command in C.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<release-item-contributor-list>
<release-item-reviewer id="cynthia.shang"/>
</release-item-contributor-list>
<p>Config parsing implemented in C and passed to Perl as JSON.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Add <code>Buffer</code>, <code>Ini</code>, <code>KeyValue</code>, <code>List</code>, <code>RegExp</code>, <code>Storage</code>, <code>String</code>, <code>StringList</code>, <code>Variant</code>, <code>VariantList</code>, and <code>Wait</code> objects.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Add <code>command</code>, <code>exit</code>, <code>log</code>, and <code>time</code> modules.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Remove deprecated <br-option>archive-max-mb</br-option> option.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Improve <code>MemContext</code> module. Add temporary context blocks and refactor allocation arrays to include allocation size.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Improve <code>error</code> module. Add functions to convert error codes to C errors and handle system errors.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Create a master list of errors in <file>build/error.yaml</file>. The C and Perl errors lists are created automatically by <code>Build.pm</code> so they stay up to date.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Move lock release later in exitSafe() to reduce the chance of a new process starting and acquiring a lock before the old process has exited.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Add 30 second wait loop to lockAcquire() when fail on no lock enabled. This should help prevent processes that are shutting down from interfering with processes that are starting up.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Replace <code>cfgCommandTotal()</code>/<code>cfgOptionTotal()</code> functions with constants. The constants are applicable in more cases and allow the compiler to optimize certain loops more efficiently.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Cleanup usage of internal options. Apply internal to options that need to be read to determine locality but should not appear in the help.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Refactor code to make valgrind happy.</p>

<release-item>
<p>PDF rendering improvements. Check both <path>doc-path</path> and <path>bin-path</path> for logo. Allow PDF to be output to a location other than the <path>output</path> directory. Use PDF-specific version variable for more flexible formatting. Allow sections to be excluded from table of contents. More flexible replacements for titles and footers. Fill is now the default for table columns. Column width is specified as a percentage rather that using latex-specific notation. Fix missing variable replace for <code>code-block</code> title.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Add <id>id</id> param for hosts created with <code>host-add</code>. The <id>host-*-ip</id> variable is created from the <id>id</id> param so the <id>name</id> param can be changed without affecting the <id>host-*-ip</id> variable. If <id>id</id> is not specified then it is copied from <id>name</id>.</p>

<release date="2018-07-05" version="1.29" title="Critical Bug Fix for Backup Resume">
<release-core-list>
<p><b>IMPORTANT NOTE</b>: This release fixes a critical bug in the backup resume feature. All resumed backups prior to this release should be considered inconsistent. A backup will be resumed after a prior backup fails, unless <br-option>resume=n</br-option> has been specified. A resumed backup can be identified by checking the backup log for the message <quote>aborted backup of same type exists, will be cleaned to remove invalid files and resumed</quote>. If the message exists, do not use this backup or any backup in the same set for a restore and check the restore logs to see if a resumed backup was restored. If so, there may be inconsistent data in the cluster.</p>

<p>Fix critical bug in resume that resulted in inconsistent backups. A regression in <id>v0.82</id> removed the timestamp comparison when deciding which files from the aborted backup to keep on resume. See note above for more details.</p>

<release-item-ideator id="adam.k.sumner"/>
</release-item-contributor-list>
<p>Improve the HTTP client to set <id>content-length</id> to 0 when not specified by the server. S3 (and gateways) always set <id>content-length</id> or <id>transfer-encoding</id> but <id>HTTP 1.1</id> does not require it and proxies (e.g. <proper>HAProxy</proper>) may not include either.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Improve performance of HTTPS client. Buffering now takes the <code>pending</code> bytes on the socket into account (when present) rather than relying entirely on <code>select()</code>. In some instances the final bytes would not be flushed until the connection was closed.</p>

<release-item>
<p>Improve S3 delete performance. The constant <id>S3_BATCH_MAX</id> had been replaced with a hard-coded value of 2, probably during testing.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Make backup/restore path sync more efficient. Scanning the entire directory can be very expensive if there are a lot of small tables. The backup manifest contains the path list so use it to perform syncs instead of scanning the backup/restore path. Remove recursive path sync functionality since it is no longer used.</p>
</release-item>
</release-improvement-list>
<release-development-list>
<release-item>
<p>Make <path>backup.history</path> sync more efficient. Only the <path>backup.history/[year]</path> directory was being synced, so check if the <path>backup.history</path> is newly created and sync it as well.</p>
</release-item>

<p>Fixed an issue retrieving WAL for old database versions. After a <cmd>stanza-upgrade</cmd> it should still be possible to restore backups from the previous version and perform recovery with <cmd>archive-get</cmd>.

<p>Fixed an issue with invalid backup groups being set correctly on restore. If the backup cannot map a group to a name it stores the group in the manifest as <id>false</id> then uses either the owner of $PGDATA to set the group during restore or failing that the group of the current user. This logic was not working correctly because the selected group was overwriting the user on restore leaving the group undefined and the user incorrectly set to the group.</p>

<release-core-list>
<p><b>IMPORTANT NOTE</b>: The new implementation of asynchronous archiving no longer copies WAL to a separate queue. If there is any WAL left over in the old queue after upgrading to <id>1.13</id>, it will be abandoned and <b>not</b> pushed to the repository.
To prevent this outcome, stop archiving by setting <setting>archive_command = false</setting>. Next, drain the async queue by running <code>pgbackrest --stanza=[stanza-name] archive-push</code> and wait for the process to complete. Check that the queue in <path>[spool-path]/archive/[stanza-name]/out</path> is empty. Finally, install <code>1.13</code> and restore the original <setting>archive_command</setting>.
<b>IMPORTANT NOTE</b>: The <cmd>stanza-create</cmd> command is not longer optional and must be executed before backup or archiving can be performed on a <b>new</b> stanza. Pre-existing stanzas do not require <cmd>stanza-create</cmd> to be executed.</p>

<release-core-list>
<p><b>IMPORTANT NOTE</b>: In prior releases it was possible to specify options on the command-line that were invalid for the current command without getting an error. An error will now be generated for invalid options so it is important to carefully check command-line options in your environment to prevent disruption.</p>

<p>Fixed an issue where options that were invalid for the specified command could be provided on the command-line without generating an error. The options were ignored and did not cause any change in behavior, but it did lead to some confusion. Invalid options will now generate an error.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Fixed an issue where internal symlinks were not being created for tablespaces in the repository. This issue was only apparent when trying to bring up clusters in-place manually using filesystem snapshots and did not affect normal backup and restore.</p>

</release-item-contributor-list>
<p>Fixed an issue that prevented errors from being output to the console before the logging system was initialized, i.e. while parsing options. Error codes were still being returned accurately so this would not have made a process look like it succeeded when it did not.</p>

<release-feature-list>
<release-item>
<release-item-contributor-list>
<release-item-ideator id="stephen.frost"/>
</release-item-contributor-list>
<p>Added the <br-option>--checksum-page</br-option> option to allow pgBackRest to validate page checksums in data files when checksums are enabled on <postgres/> >= 9.3. Note that this functionality requires a C library which may not initially be available in OS packages. The option will automatically be enabled when the library is present and checksums are enabled on the cluster.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Added the <br-option>--repo-link</br-option> option to allow internal symlinks to be suppressed when the repository is located on a filesystem that does not support symlinks. This does not affect any <backrest/> functionality, but the convenience link <path>latest</path> will not be created and neither will internal tablespace symlinks, which will affect the ability to bring up clusters in-place manually using filesystem snapshots.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Added the <br-option>--repo-sync</br-option> option to allow directory syncs in the repository to be disabled for file systems that do not support them, e.g. NTFS.</p>

<p>Fixed an issue where the async archiver would not be started if <cmd>archive-push</cmd> did not have enough space to queue a new WAL segment.

</release-bug-list>
<release-feature-list>
<release-item>
<p>Backup from a standby cluster. A connection to the primary cluster is still required to start/stop the backup and copy files that are not replicated, but the vast majority of files are copied from the standby in order to reduce load on the primary.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>More flexible configuration for databases. Master and standby can both be configured on the backup server and <backrest/> will automatically determine which is the primary. This means no configuration changes for backup are required after failing over from a primary to standby when a separate backup server is used.</p>
</release-item>

<p>Exclude directories during backup that are cleaned, recreated, or zeroed by <postgres/> at startup. These include <path>pgsql_tmp</path> and <path>pg_stat_tmp</path>.

<p>Option handling is now far more strict. Previously it was possible for a command to use an option that was not explicitly assigned to it. This was especially true for the <br-option>backup-host</br-option> and <br-option>db-host</br-option> options which are used to determine locality.</p>

<p>The <code>pg_xlogfile_name()</code> function is no longer used to construct WAL filenames from LSNs. While this function is convenient it is not available on a standby. Instead, the archive is searched for the LSN in order to find the timeline. If due to some misadventure the LSN appears on multiple timelines then an error will be thrown, whereas before this condition would have passed unnoticed.</p>

<release date="2016-04-14" version="1.00" title="New Repository Format and Configuration Scheme, Link Support">
<release-core-list>
<p><b>IMPORTANT NOTE</b>: This flag day release breaks compatibility with older versions of <backrest/>. The manifest format, on-disk structure, configuration scheme, and the exe/path names have all changed. You must create a new repository to hold backups for this version of <backrest/> and keep your older repository for a time in case you need to do a restore. Restores from the prior repository will require the prior version of <backrest/> but because of name changes it is possible to have <id>1.00</id> and a prior version of <backrest/> installed at the same time. See the notes below for more detailed information on what has changed.</p>

<p>Implemented a new configuration scheme which should be far simpler to use. See the User Guide and Configuration Reference for details but for a simple configuration all options can now be placed in the <setting>stanza</setting> section. Options that are shared between stanzas can be placed in the <setting>[global]</setting> section. More complex configurations can still make use of command sections though this should be a rare use case.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>The <setting>repo-path</setting> option now always refers to the repository where backups and archive are stored, whether local or remote, so the <setting>repo-remote-path</setting> option has been removed. The new <setting>spool-path</setting> option can be used to define a location for queueing WAL segments when archiving asynchronously. A local repository is no longer required.</p>

<release date="2016-03-22" version="0.91" title="Tablespace Bug Fix and Minor Enhancements">
<release-core-list>
<p><b>IMPORTANT BUG FIX FOR TABLESPACES</b>: A change to the repository format was accidentally introduced in 0.90 which means the on-disk backup was no longer a valid <postgres/> cluster when the backup contained tablespaces. This only affected users who directly copied the backups to restore <postgres/> clusters rather than using the restore command. However, the fix breaks compatibility with older backups that contain tablespaces no matter how they are being restored (<backrest/> will throw errors and refuse to restore). New full backups should be taken immediately after installing version 0.91 for any clusters that contain tablespaces. If older backups need to be restored then use a version of <backrest/> that matches the backup version.</p>

<release-item>
<p>When backing up and restoring tablespaces <backrest/> only operates on the subdirectory created for the version of <postgres/> being run against. Since multiple versions can live in a tablespace (especially during a binary upgrade) this prevents too many files from being copied during a backup and other versions possibly being wiped out during a restore. This only applies to <postgres/> >= 9.0 &amp;mdash; prior versions of <postgres/> could not share a tablespace directory.</p>

<release-core-list>
<p><b>IMPORTANT NOTE</b>: This flag day release breaks compatibility with older versions of <backrest/>. The manifest format, on-disk structure, and the binary names have all changed. You must create a new repository to hold backups for this version of <backrest/> and keep your older repository for a time in case you need to do a restore. The <file>pg_backrest.conf</file> file has not changed but you'll need to change any references to <file>pg_backrest.pl</file> in cron (or elsewhere) to <file>pg_backrest</file> (without the <file>.pl</file> extension).</p>

<release-item>
<p>Added <setting>tablespace</setting> setting to allow tablespaces to be restored into the <path>pg_tblspc</path> path.

<p>Added option <setting>{[dash]}-no-start-stop</setting> to allow backups when Postgres is shut down. If <file>postmaster.pid</file> is present then <setting>{[dash]}-force</setting> is required to make the backup run (though if Postgres is running an inconsistent backup will likely be created).

<p>Checksum for <file>backup.manifest</file> to detect a corrupted/modified manifest.</p>

<release date="2014-03-05" version="0.10" title="Backup and Archiving are Functional">
<release-core-list>
<release-feature-list>
<release-item>
<p>No restore functionality, but the backup directories are consistent <postgres/> data directories. You'll need to either uncompress the files or turn off compression in the backup. Uncompressed backups on a ZFS (or similar) filesystem are a good option because backups can be restored locally via a snapshot to create logical backups or do spot data recovery.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Archiving is single-threaded. This has not posed an issue on our multi-terabyte databases with heavy write volume. Recommend a large WAL volume or to use the async option with a large volume nearby.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Backups are multi-threaded, but the <code>Net::OpenSSH</code> library does not appear to be 100% thread-safe so it will very occasionally lock up on a thread. There is an overall process timeout that resolves this issue by killing the process. Yes, very ugly.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>Checksums are lost on any resumed backup. Only the final backup will record checksum on multiple resumes. Checksums from previous backups are correctly recorded and a full backup will reset everything.</p>
</release-item>
<release-item>
<p>The <file>backup.manifest</file> is being written as <code>Storable</code> because <code>Config::IniFile</code> does not seem to handle large files well. Would definitely like to save these as human-readable text.</p>
