- Output parity: add `File list size` to the strict --stats differential and
document the row-#3 residual with test_stats_file_count_breakdown_residual
(rsync's `Number of files`/`Number of created files` type breakdown is not
reproducible from what the sender knows: no directory accounting and no
per-entry destination-created state). The row stays a caveat.
- Add --threads variants for the --stats and --progress/-P differentials.
The `-n --delete --threads` variant is a documented xfail: the threaded
dry-run path does not consume the receiver's STATUS_STATS delete list yet.
- Replace the 0.2s sleep flake in the delete-timing proxy with a socket
barrier: the hook now fires only after the server sends a reply (proving it
processed the preceding per-directory delete plan), using --incremental +
--ignore-times to guarantee a mid-transfer handshake reply.
rsync's %c counts the block-checksum bytes received: even a whole-file
transfer with no basis receives rsync's 16-byte sum header (append and
inplace included), while a dry run receives nothing. FastSync's
whole-file path has no equivalent header, so report 16 for parity when
delta is inactive, keep 0 for dry runs, and keep the real received bytes
when delta is active (FastSync's signature framing differs, so delta %c
stays divergent). Add a strict %c/%l/%n differential against rsync and
turn the %b check into a real rsync differential (semantics: both count
wire bytes and exceed %l; the exact values are protocol-specific).
Accept the full rsync 3.4.1 --info (backup, del, flist, mount, nonreg,
progress, remove, symsafe) and --debug (acl, backup, bind, chdir, connect,
cmd, del, deltasum, dup, exit, filter, flist, fuzzy, genr, hash, hlink,
iconv, nstr, own, recv, send, time) vocabularies, plus the historical
syms/hl/owner aliases, with level suffixes. Categories FastSync already
emits (copy/name/misc/skip/stats and io/proto/pack/util) still set their
log flags; the rest are accepted but silent. Unknown names remain
rejected by name, matching rsync. Update the CLI unit tests and the
rsync-parity integration tests (previously they required del/filter to be
rejected).
- Assert FastSync's sparse/preallocate block accounting matches rsync 3.4.1
for a hole file (preallocate wins over sparse, exactly like rsync).
- Assert --ignore-existing is answered by the receiver before the sender
transmits the payload (CountingProxy wire volume near-zero).
- CountingProxy.run gains a bounded join_timeout so tests that only need the
client->server count do not wait for the server's idle socket.
- Fix the stale protocol 2.24.0 comment in test_config.c (golden is 2.26.0).
Add tests/integration/test_codecs.py (accept/reject matrix and byte
differential against rsync 3.4.1 for every algorithm), extend the
checksum/compression unit tests with MD4/SHA1/none vectors and per-codec
round-trips, pin the new config golden (2.26.0), and update the version
strings and codec acceptance expectations.
Accept the full rsync 3.4.1 --compress-choice set (zstd/lz4/zlib/zlibx/
none/auto) and the two-name --checksum-choice TRANSFER,PRE-TRANSFER form,
including rsync's 'none' rules (rejected with --checksum at exit 4, and
forcing --whole-file as the transfer half) and unknown names at exit 4.
The checksum default becomes the auto-negotiated xxh128.
Negotiation is deterministic and symmetric: both peers run the same
preference resolver (rsync's --version order). The resolved
compression_algo crosses the wire as a new trailing config-frame int so
the receiver validates and installs the exact codec; an unsupported
choice is refused before STATUS_OK like rsync's failed negotiation.
Bump PROTOCOL_VERSION to 2.26.0.
Add real implementations for the rsync 3.4.1 checksum and compression
breadth: a self-contained MD4 (RFC 1320), OpenSSL-backed SHA1, a
no-digest mode, and LZ4/zlib codecs alongside zstd. Compressed buffers
are now self-describing (a leading codec id), so every existing
decompression call site keeps working through a process-global codec
selection. zlibx shares the zlib codec because FastSync compresses only
delta/token bytes (never matched file data), matching the 'x' intent.
- Only honor the --delete-missing-args exact paths when the server's
--allow-delete policy left delete_missing_args set.
- -d/--dirs does not recurse, so a per-directory plan would carry no child
information and could delete the contents of an untraversed directory; fall
back to the whole-tree end-of-transfer commit for that mode.
A -R source prune (--exclude/--max-size) must record the destination wire
path below the reconstructed prefix so --delete protects it; the parallel
root scan and the sequential skip path used the source path instead.
A general -R transfer places its files below the reconstructed prefix, so
marking the whole receive root as the delete scope deleted unrelated
sibling directories (data loss; rsync keeps them). Use the prefix itself
as the root marker when it is non-empty, in both the single-threaded and
multithreaded pipelines.
rsync prints the --stats block (with the (DRY RUN) suffix) for -n; route
the dry-run path through report_transfer_stats using the wire counters and
the STATUS_STATS receiver report.
The receiver emits the wire-stats frame before the per-file acks and the
terminal status; the client must consume it in that order or a combined
--stats --remove-source-files run desynchronizes.
Replace the aggregate stderr progress with rsync 3.4.1's per-file progress
block (name, 32 KiB first frame, final frame with (xfr#N, to-chk=X/Y)).
Add differential tests against real rsync for --out-format %C/%b, the
--progress frames, selected --stats lines and -n --delete lines.
Add the STATUS_STATS end-of-transfer receiver report (matched/deleted
counters plus a would-delete path list) behind the report_stats wire
bool, and a read-only delete_extras_list walker. --stats now renders
true wire byte totals and the receiver-reported deleted count; a
server-contacting -n --delete prints transfer-relative '*deleting' lines
matching rsync's itemize layout.
- Compare --delete-during/--delete-delay final state against rsync 3.4.1.
- Force a mid-transfer failure through a byte-slicing proxy: --delete-during has
removed the processed directory's extra, --delete-delay has not.
- Create a destination entry while the transfer is in flight: it survives
--delete-delay's snapshot but is removed by --delete-after's fresh end scan.
- Cover the --delete-delay type-conflict case now matching rsync.
Stream one delete plan per source directory from sender to receiver instead of
a single whole-tree keep-set manifest:
- --delete-during applies each directory's extras as its plan arrives, before
that directory's data (rsync's generator-order deletion).
- --delete-delay snapshots each directory's extras while the plan arrives and
commits the removals only after a fully-successful transfer, so files created
after the scan survive (matching rsync's delete-delay, not delete-after).
- Type conflicts (a destination file blocking a source directory, or vice
versa) are cleared immediately in both modes, so the nested write succeeds.
The plan carries the destination-relative directory, its kept child directory
names and its kept child file names; the first frame also carries the global
protected prefixes, size-skipped prefixes and --delete-missing-args paths.
--delete-before keeps the existing whole-tree early manifest; plain --delete and
--delete-after keep the end-of-transfer manifest commit.
Preserves the existing safety surface: protected/size-skipped prefixes and the
--delay-updates/basis skips are honored at any depth, deletion is scoped to the
synchronized directories (--files-from), MAX_SERVER_DELETE_COUNT and
--max-delete (partial + exit 25) are shared across plans, symlinks are never
followed, and paths are confined to the receive root.
A trailing slash (or trailing '/.', or a bare '.') now lists the source's
immediate contents -- files transferred, subdirectories created empty --
without recursing, while a bare directory still sends only its own entry.
The -R prefix applies to the generated entries and to the root entry.
Reconstruct the destination-relative prefix from the source spec outside
--files-from: cut at rsync's first '/./' (or a leading './'), normalize
later '.' components and trailing slashes. Apply it as each File's
send_path in the sequential and parallel scanners (root and worker paths,
files, one-file-system mount entries and directory-time capture).
Transmit the metadata of implied parent directories (prefix components
above the source root), suppressed by --no-implied-dirs, so parent attrs
match rsync in both the single-threaded and -m pipelines.
Bump PROTOCOL_VERSION to 2.25.0 and append a report_stats bool to the
config frame, add a STATUS_STATS status, and add process-wide wire byte
counters (protocol_bytes_written/read) for the client.
Render the rsync 3.4.1 --out-format %b (wire bytes sent) and %c (wire
bytes read back) tokens from per-file counter deltas, and %C (whole-file
xxh128 checksum, seed 0) via a new streaming checksum_digest_file().
Reclassify every rsync-compatibility row as parity / caveat / divergent
(replacing the misleading 143-OK / 0-divergence summary), and document the
protocol 2.23.0 behavior:
- Split the conflated `-M, --preserve` row: `-M` is `--remote-option`,
`--preserve` is the FastSync `-p`+`-t` alias.
- Fix `MAX_CONNECTION_MEMORY` (256 MiB, not 1 GB), `--rsync-path`
(client-only, never crosses the wire), and the `-p` mode behavior
(strict rsync parity; no masking).
- `--specials` now recreates sockets, so `-D` is real parity; fake-super
records the resolved owner and replays mode/time (never real-chowns).
- Document short options/clustering, checksum/compression choices, seed
randomization, timeout/max-alloc defaults, temp-dir confinement + EXDEV,
identity/map parity, verbatim symlinks, delete scoping, `--max-delete`
partial + exit 25, `--chmod`, output caveats, and server `--port`.
- Bump version refs to 2.23.0 and add the 2.23.0 CHANGELOG entry.
Docs-only; no source changes.
- --chmod no longer implies --preserve-perms; repeated --chmod options
accumulate, and D/F/X selectors plus s/t special bits are supported with
rsync's exact parse_chmod/tweak_mode semantics.
- Stop masking group/other write and setuid/setgid/sticky: -p copies the
source mode exactly, no-p new entries use source&~umask, directories keep
setgid/sticky, and special nodes follow the same rules.
- Apply ownership before mode on the fd path so a chown cannot clear the
setuid/setgid bits -p just restored (rsync order).
- Update unit and integration tests, including differential checks against
rsync 3.4.1.
Address review findings on feat/rsync-parity:
- confine --temp-dir below the receive root (reject absolute/.. like
backup-dir/partial-dir); keep EXDEV non-atomic fallback
- floor server session I/O deadlines at SERVER_IO_TIMEOUT_SEC (60s) and
install it on the socket layer at startup (slow-loris)
- charge each --delete-missing-args directory removal once and clamp the
extras-walk remaining budget so it can never underflow past --max-delete
- normalize --compress-choice=auto to zstd client-side and accept it on
receive so auto transfers no longer fail
- map received --max-alloc=0 to MAX_SERVER_ALLOC (receive path only)
- zero File.dest_state; include log-file-format in report_dest_info;
add STATUS_DELETE_LIMIT name; recognize --skip-compress as a
separate-value option; OOM-guard send_list_only root entry; drop the
dead -M= branch; record the bare relative protected prefix for -R
size-prunes in both scanners; refresh delete-manifest comment
- pin the rsync tarball sha256 and bump integrator image to v11
Tests: temp-dir rejection/relative/cross-device, server timeout floor,
delete-missing dir budget regression, compress-choice=auto e2e,
max-alloc=0 receive mapping, dest_state, report_dest_info modes,
skip-compress dash value, -M short forms, -R root size-prune mirror
protection (rsync 3.4.1 confirmed).
