In the scheduler, a month (or year) does not start at the first day,
but at the first `preserve_day_of_week`. Make sure that all days
before `preserve_day_of_week` in a month get delta_months+1.
Example (corner case):
- `preserve_day_of_week sunday`
- `target_preserve *m`
- no backups in 2018-02
- backup with timestamp 2018-03-01 (which is a thursday)
- backup with timestamp 2018-03-04 (which is a sunday)
Without this patch, because there are no sunday backups in 2018-02,
the first backup is considered a weekly (+4d after sunday), and as
such "first weekly of month 2018-03", and the second one is discarded.
With this patch, the first item is considered "first weekly of month
2018-02", and the second gets "first weekly of month 2018-03".
NOTE: This change may result in (previously preserved) backups to be
deleted!
Introduces the new config option "preserve_hour_of_day" to specify
after what time backups should be considered as dailies.
Based on pull request #204, with changes:
- calculation of weekly backups
- change format of preserve_matrix
While $vol->{URL} can contain "//" if volume="/" (intentionally, this
is an assembled path), the filter statements are sanitized using
check_url(). This means we need to match the filter statement against
check_url($vol->{URL}). Same applies to subvol.
Btrfs does not destroy qgroups when subvolumes are deleted (see
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91751). As a workaround
for this, btrbk can be configured to always destroy the corresponding
default qgroup "0/<subvol-id>" whenever a subvolume (snapshot, backup
or archive) is deleted.
Added configuration options:
- snapshot_qgroup_destroy
- target_qgroup_destroy
- archive_qgroup_destroy
Example:
Manually create a key:
# KEYFILE=/some/secure/place/btrbk.key
# dd if=/dev/urandom bs=1 count=32 | od -x -A n | tr -d "[:space:]" > $KEYFILE
btrbk.conf:
volume /mnt/btr_pool
incremental no
raw_target_encrypt openssl_enc
openssl_ciphername aes-256-cbc
openssl_iv_size 16 # NOTE: set to "no" if no IV is needed by the selected cipher
openssl_keyfile /some/secure/place/btrbk.key
subvolume home
target raw ssh://cloud.example.com/backup
While taint mode [1] is a nice feature of perl, e.g. it disallows
using variables (such as filenames from the config file) which were
not validated in system() commands, it also treats $PATH as insecure
(which inherently is, as perl cannot know who messed around with it).

Note that btrbk still does all taint checks, and can be run in taint
mode:
- by executing `perl -T /usr/sbin/btrbk`,
- or by changing the hashbang to: `!#/usr/bin/perl -T`.
The "duration" column in the transaction log has proven to be
confusing to some users, especially on errors (e.g. "send-receive
ERROR 27" in issue #177). As it's not really necessary (duration can
be computed from the corresponding "starting" log entry), it's now
being dropped.
As of btrfs-progs-v4.12, the "btrfs subvolume show" command does not
print the full (absolute, resolved) path anymore [1]. Instead, it prints
the relative path to btrfs root (or "/" if it is the root).
The impact for btrbk is that we cannot fill our realpath_cache in
btrfs_subvolume_show() anymore. This is not fatal, but has the
following consequences:
- The "check for duplicate snapshot locations" may now miss
subvolumes specified by symlinks.
- If multiple "volume" sections point to the same subvolume (e.g. if
specified using symlinks) an additional "btrfs subvolume list" is
called. Note that the subvolume will still be recognized as
identical, and the btr_tree will not be rebuilt.
