Capture+transmit source atime (pre-read stat; O_NOATIME sender guard) and birth
time (statx STATX_BTIME); receiver restores atime with mtime (crtime not settable
portably -> transmitted, explicitly not applied). --open-noatime is client-only.
-O/-J documented as accepted no-ops (FastSync never preserves dir/symlink times).
Wire: metadata frame gains atime/crtime val+sec+nsec; PROTOCOL_VERSION
2.11.0->2.12.0. Review fixes: gate atime capture to Linux (no epoch clobber on
non-Linux), close fd on fdopen failure, honest -O/-J status (Compat no-op).
Receiver allocates the destination file's full size before streaming data
(posix_fallocate preferred, ftruncate fallback on EOPNOTSUPP/ENOSYS) so an
out-of-space transfer fails fast instead of partway. Additive config bool
crossing the wire; PROTOCOL_VERSION 2.10.0 -> 2.11.0. Threaded through all
store paths (atomic, inplace, partial/delay-updates staging, link-dest copy
fallback). Review hardening: explicit lseek(0) before the data write so
correctness does not depend on posix_fallocate leaving the fd offset unchanged.
RSYNC_COMPAT Phase-2 row M: path-list construction and destination
directory creation while preserving traversal safety.
- -R/--relative with --files-from: transmit each listed entry under its
bare relative destination path (no source-root mirror). Files keep an
absolute local read path plus a separate wire/dest path (File.send_path);
manifest, incremental quick-check and change output follow the wire path,
so --delete and --remove-source-files stay consistent. -R without
--files-from is unchanged (full mirror).
- --no-implied-dirs: client-only, only meaningful with -R + --files-from.
A listed file whose parent dir is not itself (or via an ancestor)
explicitly listed cannot be placed; the run fails up front with a clear
error. No effect otherwise.
- --dirs/-d + --old-dirs/--old-d aliases: -d <dir> transmits the source
root as an explicit empty directory entry (STATUS_MKDIR frame); with
--files-from listed dirs are created empty and listed files transferred,
never descending. Works single-threaded, -m (sequential scanner in the
-m scan thread) and chunk-serialization (per-file type marker).
Directory entries appear in the delete manifest.
- --mkpath: new wire bool; server creates the destination root (and missing
leading components under its authorized root) at connection start. A
missing destination root is now rejected by default.
- Protocol bumped to 2.7.0 (mkpath wire field + STATUS_MKDIR + chunk type
marker). All receive paths funnel through file_save_to_disk_full which
creates directories via the secure confined mkdir engine; dir entries are
excluded from --remove-source-files outcome acknowledgements on both ends.
- Unit coverage: CLI parse (relative/dirs aliases/mkpath/no-implied-dirs),
config round-trip (relative + mkpath), scanner --dirs non-recursion and
-R send_path (sequential + parallel), receiver dir-entry save.
- Integration coverage: TestRelativeFilesFrom, TestNoImpliedDirs, TestDirs,
TestMkpath (single and -m).
- RSYNC_COMPAT: 4 rows move to Implemented (Summary 67/3/5/1/71 = 147).
#251 --remove-source-files deletes sources that were skipped receiver-side
(--existing/--ignore-existing/--update). The receiver now reports a
per-file outcome for every processed data file when the sender requests
removal; the client only unlinks sources the receiver actually wrote.
add remove_source_files to the wire config and bump the protocol to 2.5.0.
#252 --backup/--suffix/--backup-dir broken by NULL-vs-empty wire loss. Receivers
canonicalize the empty wire string back to NULL for backup_dir, temp_dir,
partial_dir and suffix, and --suffix is received unconditionally.
#253 --partial --partial-dir never installed completed files. file_save_to_disk
now renames a fully written partial-dir file into the real destination.
#255 STATUS_CHECK read the entire old file before the size/mtime quick check.
Old contents are only read when a checksum compare or delta needs them.
#256 receive_delta_file failure paths did not set *failed, so the caller sent
STATUS_NEXT and waited for a body that never came. Every NULL return now
marks the transfer failed.
#257 files >64 MiB could not transfer. Whole-file receive caps raised to the
256 MiB connection/allocation ceiling (chunk caps stay 64 MiB) and the
client ignores SIGPIPE so a server-side close surfaces as a clean error.
Unit tests added: config NULL-vs-empty round trip, incremental quick-check
skip/NEXT paths, delta oversize failure, partial-dir install, save-result
skip reporting.
The --inplace branch opened the destination with O_WRONLY|O_CREAT (no
O_TRUNC) and only restored metadata when the sender supplied it. Two
flaws resulted:
1. An existing destination file kept its original mode when no metadata
was sent, so setuid/setgid/sticky bits survived an overwrite (a root
sync could leave a root-owned setuid binary controlled by a client).
2. A shorter payload left stale trailing bytes from the previous version
because the file was never truncated to the new length.
In the inplace branch of file_to_disk_secure_impl:
- Always trim the file to the new payload length (ftruncate after the
write) so stale trailing bytes can never survive; sparse targets keep
their pre-size ftruncate.
- Always normalize the mode after a successful overwrite: apply the
metadata-derived safe mode when metadata is present (as before), else
fchmod to a safe default 0644, so setuid/setgid/sticky are cleared in
both cases.
- The --update newer-destination check still runs before any truncation
or chmod, preserving the skip semantics.
Adds unit tests in test_file.c: (a) setuid/sticky bits on an existing
destination are cleared after an inplace write with and without metadata,
(b) a shorter inplace payload leaves no trailing stale bytes.
The Phase 1 merge conflict resolutions introduced formatting that failed
the CI lint job (clang-format 18.1.3). Reformatted with the exact CI
version; no functional changes.
- Fix transport_tcp.c: initialize server->ssl_ctx to NULL
(prevents SSL_CTX_free on garbage when server_create_tls fails)
- Fix test_transport_tcp.c: client_create now sets fd=-1, family=AF_UNSPEC
- Fix test_transport_tcp.c: server address family may be AF_INET or AF_INET6
- Fix test_file_sendfile.c: send_path=false protocol includes file_type prefix
- Install lcov in coverage job (not in fastsync-ci:v7)
- Use lcov 2.x compatible flags (--branch-coverage instead of --rc)
- Remove unused xxhash exclude pattern that lcov 2.x rejects
- Install valgrind in valgrind job
- Skip fork-based file tests under valgrind (pipe timing issues)
- Add FASTSYNC_UNDER_VALGRIND env var for test skip detection
- Move cleanup before assertions in fork tests to prevent leaks
- Add coverage.info to .gitignore
