file_send.c chose between sendfile() and the TLS-aware buffered path by
calling io_get_ssl(), which reads the thread-local io_ssl. A worker thread
that bound a TLS ProtocolSession via protocol_session_bind() never ran the
handshake in that thread, so io_ssl is NULL there and a TLS + --threads
transfer took the raw sendfile() path on an encrypted socket.
Add protocol_current_ssl(), which prefers the bound session's SSL and falls
back to io_ssl on the fd-shim path, and use it in file_send.c. Un-xfail
test_tls_with_multithreading.
Three receiver security fixes from the audit:
1. --temp-dir symlink escape (High): file_open_temp_dir() opened the
client-controlled scratch dir with a bare open(), so a symlink planted
under the receive root let a peer redirect receiver scratch files
outside the authorized root. The opened dir is now judged by the REAL
path of its fd (via /proc/self/fd), and any target outside the
authorized receive root is refused with a logged error (EACCES). An
in-root symlink (the EXDEV cross-filesystem fallback case) still works,
and the no-root local batch path is unchanged.
2. setuid/setgid/sticky under SUPER_MODE_OFF (High): the special bits were
applied under --perms (and via --chmod) even when the connection forbade
super-user activities. FileAttrPolicy gains super_permitted, set by
file_attr_policy_from_config() from privilege_super_mode_permitted();
metadata_mode_for_policy(), the symlink path, the special-node creation
path, and the deferred directory-mode apply now strip the special bits
when it is false. Exact rsync semantics are preserved when permitted.
3. daemon umask (Low): daemonize() forced umask(0), so implied parent
directories created without -p were world-writable 0777. Set the
conventional daemon umask 022 instead (rsync never forces 0); -p/-a mode
preservation is unaffected because it restores modes via fchmod.
Tests: new unit tests for file_open_temp_dir confinement and the
masked/unmasked special-bit policy (incl. the --chmod path), a daemon
world-writable-dir regression test, an integration escape test, and a
root-only integration test asserting special bits are masked without
--allow-super. The old cross-filesystem test encoded the vulnerable
behavior (symlink target outside the root) and is replaced by the escape
test; the EXDEV fallback code is retained for in-root links.
rsync 3.4.1 resolves --partial-dir after option parsing and sets keep_partial,
so --partial-dir=DIR alone retains an interrupted transfer's partial file.
FastSync only used the partial dir when --partial was also given, silently
discarding it otherwise.
Set Config->partial in cli_finalize_config whenever partial_dir is set.
Following rsync, an explicit --no-partial does NOT win (verified on rsync
3.4.1 in either option order); --inplace is guarded because it writes the
destination in place with no partial staging.
Tests: CLI unit coverage for the implication/precedence/inplace guard, and a
deterministic integration case that blocks the final install (non-empty
directory at the destination) and asserts the staged partial survives under
--partial-dir alone.
--info=mount now prints rsync's mount-point skip line (matching rsync
3.4.1, which emits it for repeated -xx and drops the mount-point dir);
--info=stats enables the same block as --stats; -x is repeatable.
--stats counts traversed directories for the Number of files breakdown
even when no directory metadata is captured (-r without -t/-p).
--debug enables real output for flist/del/hash/deltasum/recv/filter/send
at their natural FastSync events (synthetic categories stay inert).
--stats and --debug rows keep their documented residual status.
Transmit the complete --delete-during/--delete-delay per-directory plan
set before the first data frame, so a mid-transfer abort has already
applied every planned removal like rsync's generator; completed runs are
unchanged. Route -d/--dirs through the same per-directory plans: the
generator records only directories whose direct children it enumerated,
so extras directly inside a listed directory are removed while an
untraversed subdirectory's mirror is shielded (rsync's -d DIR/ --delete).
Also shields a -x mount point's untraversed destination content.
Buffer and sort each directory's inspected entries (non-directories
ascending, then directories ascending) and walk them depth-first via a
LIFO directory stack, so the sequential scanner's stream matches rsync
3.4.1's flist order. This makes the --info=name transfer order and the
--delete-during/--delete-delay deletion sequence byte-identical to rsync
(differential tests in test_parity_order.py); --threads stays unordered
(no rsync analogue) and is documented as such.
Adds LIFO queue_push/queue_pop over the existing ring buffer.
Resolve a relative --compare-dest/--copy-dest/--link-dest DIR against the
destination directory and append the file's transfer-relative name, as
rsync 3.4.1 does, instead of appending FastSync's source-mirrored wire
path (the historical spelling stays as a fallback for existing layouts).
Stop inheriting the ordinary delta engine's 16 KiB minimum and 10x size
ratio in the -y/--fuzzy candidate search: rsync's find_fuzzy has no
delta-size gate, so an oversized or sub-16-KiB sibling is now reused.
The ordinary delta path's bounds are unchanged.
- receiver stats: exclude basis-dir materializations (--link-dest/--copy-dest)
from created/literal tallies; rsync reports 0 for a basis hit, so a fresh
--link-dest --stats run now matches (differential test_link_dest_stats_matches_rsync)
- filter wire block: reject a pattern above the glob evaluation bound and lower
MAX_FILTER_RULES to 1024, so a crafted rule list cannot amplify delete-walk
glob work or install a rule that silently never protects
- negative tests for over-cap count and over-long pattern
- README: correct --delete default, --stats/--progress description, add
--delete-commit; RSYNC_COMPAT stale version labels/overclaim fixed
- plain --delete with no timing flag now selects delete-during (progressive
deletion, matching rsync and avoiding the full old+new tree peak)
- new long-only FastSync --delete-commit restores the old atomic behavior
(delete only after the whole transfer succeeds); timing-identical to
--delete-after, implemented via the same wire bool
- timing flags are mutually exclusive; --delete-commit conflicts with other
timings; --delete-before/--delete-during rows reworded per Phase-0 probes
- CHANGELOG migration note; tally unchanged 116/14/27
Probe shows the candidate choice is observable only as --stats bandwidth
counters (tree/exit always identical). FastSync already uses rsync's
fuzzy_distance/find_filename_suffix name heuristic; the residual is the
narrower delta eligibility window (>=16 KiB, <=10x) vs rsync's wider one.
Row -> caveat; tally 116/14/27.
Adds the exclude_protect_dest_only differential and flips --delete-excluded
to parity now that receiver-side rules protect a destination-only excluded
entry like rsync; tally 116/10/31.
- new bounded config-wire block (BLOCK_PROTECT_RULES) serializes the sender's
compiled filter rules to the receiver (bounded count + 256 KiB patterns;
strict action/sides validation)
- receiver evaluates protect/risk in the whole-tree extras walk and the
per-directory delete plans, so a dest-only entry matching 'P' is kept like
rsync; dry-run would-delete enumeration also honours it
- --filter flips to parity (115/11/31); per-dir merge receiver re-derivation
remains the documented residual
Probe shows the block-checksum choice is not observable in the parity surface:
%c, Matched/Literal data and the destination tree are invariant across
xxh64/xxh128/xxh3/md5/md4/sha1 and the transfer,pre-transfer form; only %C
changes, and it is byte-identical to rsync. FastSync's fixed xxHash32 block
strong sum is collision-safe within the payload cap. Row -> parity (114/11/32).
