Wave D of Phase 7. Make -O/--omit-dir-times and -J/--omit-link-times real by
preserving directory and symlink times, and mark --secluded-args as an explicit
Impossible/Divergence no-op.
Wire: PROTOCOL_VERSION 2.16.0 -> 2.17.0. Adds a terminal STATUS_DIR_TIMES frame
(int count + (wire path, metadata) pairs) sent after all file data and the
optional delete manifest. STATUS_MKDIR also carries metadata for --dirs entries.
Config-frame layout is unchanged.
Sender: the recursive scanner captures every traversed source directory (both
DirectoryScanner and the parallel scanner root + workers, appends mutex-guarded)
into a shared list; the single-threaded and -m paths transmit it last.
Receiver: a DirTimeList accumulates received directory metadata and applies it
with fd-relative no-follow utimensat only at the very end -- after all children,
after the commit-style --delete, and after --delay-updates publication -- in the
single-threaded success frame and in server.c after the -m threads join. -O skips
the application. Symlink metadata is applied at link creation with
utimensat/fchownat/fchmodat AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW; -J suppresses only link times.
identity_apply_ownership_link shares the identity resolver with the fd path.
Docs: -O/-J rows -> Implemented; --secluded-args -> Impossible/Divergence;
--protocol accepted/rejected values and Phase-6/7 notes updated.
Tests: unit (scanner dir capture, DirTimeList apply, symlink metadata, protocol
version values) and integration (dir mtime round-trip + -O, symlink mtime
round-trip + -J, independent suppression), parameterized over single/multithread.
- fake_super_restore_fd now sanitizes mode like metadata_mode (never grants
S_IWGRP|S_IWOTH; 0666 -> 0644), fixing a privilege regression
- --sparse takes precedence over --preallocate (skip posix_fallocate when
sparse) so holes are not re-allocated; docs corrected
- --partial retention disabled under --no_replace (ignore/existing) and only
marks write_attempted after the write begins (no empty-temp retention)
- accept --block-size=SIZE / --delta-block=SIZE inline forms; neutral messages
- fake-super EPERM/EACCES skipped silently (docs aligned); EINVAL still logged
- sparse unit test now memcmp's the full buffer; TestBlockSize integration keeps
the destination basis so delta is genuinely exercised
- unit 37/37, cppcheck 0, clang-format 0
- write_all_sparse: skips all-zero runs >= 4096 bytes via lseek(SEEK_CUR) and
ftruncates the final size, wired into the atomic temp+rename and --inplace
paths with no wire change (full image already in memory).
- --partial retention: on a save failure after the temp held data, rename the
already-written temp to the destination path (best-effort; falls through to
unlink; never retains when --partial is off) so --append/--append-verify can
resume; tested by forcing futimens EINVAL with an out-of-range nsec.
- --block-size aliases --delta-block; verified config->delta_block_size is
honored by the delta engine end-to-end (unit + integration tests).
- fake_super_restore_fd: parses and re-applies user.fastsync.stat fd-relative
(fchown best-effort/non-root skipped, fchmod, futimens); a save under
--fake-super now both records and re-applies.
- -N/--crtimes and --stderr=client promoted to a new 'Impossible/Divergence'
status bucket (Summary: 136/2/4/3/2 = 147).
- cppcheck/clang-format clean; unit 37/37; integration 407 passed.
- revert over-eager replacement of setfacl -m in test_features.py
- use --chunk-serialization (+ set dirs) in the two append/append-verify
chunk-serialization rejection unit tests so they exercise the real check
- rename archive-negation integration test (--no-preserve is inert under
archive because devices/specials force metadata)
- update stale (-c)/(-m)/(-s)/(-f) display labels and RSYNC_COMPAT -c/-m refs
- document the --no-perms negation limitation in the Wave A note
-c -> --checksum, -m -> --prune-empty-dirs, -M -> --remote-option,
-f -> --filter, -s -> --secluded-args, -p -> --perms, -T -> --temp-dir;
-a/--archive is now real rsync -rlptgoD (links+metadata+devices+specials).
FastSync's own flags moved to long-form-only or new shorts:
-j/--threads (multithreading), --preserve (metadata), --sendfile,
--chunk-serialization, --timeout, --ssh-port. Client-side only; the
wire config fields are unchanged (no PROTOCOL_VERSION bump). The server
keeps -p as its port. Docs (README, RSYNC_COMPAT summary 129->132) and
unit/integration tests updated. 37/37 unit, 400-pass integration.
Implements the client-only residual-batch feature end-to-end:
- src/shared/batch.{c,h}: self-contained single-file batch codec using the
existing chunk_serialize/chunk_deserialize codec (byte-identical by
construction). Magic+format-version header (metadata mode is persisted into
the header so a batch is self-describing across machines), length-prefixed
chunk records, bounded reads that reject malformed/truncated/oversized
records cleanly.
- src/client/client_send.c: write_batch_from_source (deterministic separate
scan pass, loads every chunk's file images, emits header+records) and
apply_batch_to_dest (local apply to a destination root via
file_save_to_disk_full). No wire change, no server involved.
- src/client/client_validation.c: --write-batch XOR --only-write-batch;
--read-batch exclusive with both; --read-batch needs only a DEST,
--only-write-batch only a SOURCE.
- src/client/client_cli.c: main() drives the three batch modes without
connecting/transferring for read/only-write; --write-batch runs the live
transfer (single-threaded so the config survives) then emits the batch.
- tests/test_batch.{c,h} (unit: byte-identical roundtrip with and without
metadata; bad-magic/truncated/oversized rejection) + tests/integration/
test_batch.py (only-write no-server, read-batch no-source roundtrip,
--write-batch with a live transfer, conflict rejections).
- clang-format: realign PART-1 config.h comment block.
No PROTOCOL_VERSION bump, no config-frame field, no server flag.
- test_credentials.c: NUL-terminate the overlong-line stack buffer before
make_tmp_file's strlen() (was a stack-buffer-overflow READ under ASan);
still exercises the overlong-rejection path.
- Add redacted protocol string variants (protocol_send_str_redacted /
receive + fd send_str_redacted/receive_str_redacted) and use them for the
daemon auth username/digest so --verbose / LOG_DEBUG_ALL never logs a
replayable credential while other protocol strings keep their debug trace.
- credentials_verify/gate: replace byte-wise-short-circuiting strcmp with a
fixed-length constant-time username compare (closes user-enumeration oracle);
update doc comment to match.
- read_secret_file: preserve password exact bytes (only strip trailing CR/LF)
and burn the stack line buffer; document the whitespace behavior.
- test_server_cli.c: note the parser zero-inits opts on failure.
- Add debug-level daemon test asserting the digest never appears under --verbose.
PROTOCOL_VERSION stays 2.15.0.
