From 27d693c222bbefca73aac10864b37c483dd56dd1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mrityunjay Raj Date: Fri, 19 Jun 2026 23:30:33 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] repository: read-only check by hashing pack/index objects, refs #8476 #8572 Implement the read-only repository check by hashing pack and index objects and comparing against the stored hashes, without writing to the repository. Report check progress separately for the index and for the packs, each ending at 100%. --- docs/internals/data-structures.rst | 4 +- src/borg/archive.py | 9 +- src/borg/repository.py | 213 ++++++++---------- src/borg/testsuite/archiver/check_cmd_test.py | 21 ++ src/borg/testsuite/repository_test.py | 66 +++++- 5 files changed, 184 insertions(+), 129 deletions(-) diff --git a/docs/internals/data-structures.rst b/docs/internals/data-structures.rst index f801a433d5..b579807219 100644 --- a/docs/internals/data-structures.rst +++ b/docs/internals/data-structures.rst @@ -31,9 +31,9 @@ config/ the repository version encoded as decimal number text manifest some data about the repository, binary - last-key-checked + last-pack-checked repository check progress (partial checks, full checks' checkpointing), - path of last object checked as text + key of last pack checked as text space-reserve.N purely random binary data to reserve space, e.g. for disk-full emergencies diff --git a/src/borg/archive.py b/src/borg/archive.py index ffd4d41fa0..07a1932941 100644 --- a/src/borg/archive.py +++ b/src/borg/archive.py @@ -1735,9 +1735,12 @@ def check( self.check_all = not any((first, last, match, older, newer, oldest, newest)) self.repair = repair self.repository = repository - # Repository.check already did a full repository-level check and has built and cached a fresh chunkindex - - # we can use that here, so we don't disable the caches (also no need to cache immediately, again): - self.chunks = build_chunkindex_from_repo(self.repository, disable_caches=False, cache_immediately=False) + # A normal (non-repair) archives check trusts the in-repo index: the repository check verified + # each index object's sha256, and the index is the authoritative record of which chunks exist, + # so we do not rebuild it from the packs (reading every pack is far too slow for a routine check). + # --repair does rebuild from the packs (disable_caches=repair), working from the real packs so it + # can detect and fix archives that reference chunks whose pack has gone missing. + self.chunks = build_chunkindex_from_repo(self.repository, disable_caches=repair, cache_immediately=False) if self.key is None: self.key = self.make_key(repository) self.repo_objs = RepoObj(self.key) diff --git a/src/borg/repository.py b/src/borg/repository.py index f6c10f731e..c515034bd6 100644 --- a/src/borg/repository.py +++ b/src/borg/repository.py @@ -12,14 +12,15 @@ from borgstore.backends.errors import BackendAlreadyExists as StoreBackendAlreadyExists from .constants import * # NOQA -from .hashindex import ChunkIndex, ChunkIndexEntry +from .hashindex import ChunkIndex from .helpers import Error, ErrorWithTraceback, IntegrityError from .helpers import Location from .helpers import bin_to_hex, hex_to_bin +from .helpers import ProgressIndicatorPercent from .storelocking import Lock from .logger import create_logger from .manifest import NoManifestError -from .repoobj import RepoObj, OBJ_MAGIC, OBJ_VERSION +from .repoobj import RepoObj from .crypto.key import is_keyfile logger = create_logger(__name__) @@ -48,7 +49,7 @@ def borg_permissions(permissions): return { "": "lr", "archives": "lrw", - "cache": "lrwWD", # WD for last-key-checked, ... + "cache": "lrwWD", # WD for last-pack-checked, ...
