v3.42.99: Fix dedup CIFS/SMB rename bug

On network filesystems (CIFS/SMB), atomic renames can fail with
'no such file or directory' due to stale directory caches.

Fix:
- Add MkdirAll before rename to refresh directory cache
- Retry rename up to 3 times with 10ms delay
- Re-ensure directory exists on each retry attempt

+## [3.42.98] - 2025-01-23
+
+### Fixed - Critical Bug Fixes for v3.42.97
+- **Fixed CGO/SQLite build issue** - binaries now work when compiled with `CGO_ENABLED=0`
+  - Switched from `github.com/mattn/go-sqlite3` (requires CGO) to `modernc.org/sqlite` (pure Go)
+  - All cross-compiled binaries now work correctly on all platforms
+  - No more "Binary was compiled with 'CGO_ENABLED=0', go-sqlite3 requires cgo to work" errors
+
+- **Fixed MySQL positional database argument being ignored**
+  - `dbbackup backup single <dbname> --db-type mysql` now correctly uses `<dbname>`
+  - Previously defaulted to 'postgres' regardless of positional argument
+  - Also fixed in `backup sample` command
+
+## [3.42.97] - 2025-01-23
+
+### Added - Bandwidth Throttling for Cloud Uploads
+- **New `--bandwidth-limit` flag for cloud operations** - prevent network saturation during business hours
+  - Works with S3, GCS, Azure Blob Storage, MinIO, Backblaze B2
+  - Supports human-readable formats:
+    - `10MB/s`, `50MiB/s` - megabytes per second
+    - `100KB/s`, `500KiB/s` - kilobytes per second  
+    - `1GB/s` - gigabytes per second
+    - `100Mbps` - megabits per second (for network-minded users)
+    - `unlimited` or `0` - no limit (default)
+  - Environment variable: `DBBACKUP_BANDWIDTH_LIMIT`
+  - **Example usage**:
+    ```bash
+    # Limit upload to 10 MB/s during business hours
+    dbbackup cloud upload backup.dump --bandwidth-limit 10MB/s
+    
+    # Environment variable for all operations
+    export DBBACKUP_BANDWIDTH_LIMIT=50MiB/s
+    ```
+  - **Implementation**: Token-bucket style throttling with 100ms windows for smooth rate limiting
+  - **DBA requested feature**: Avoid saturating production network during scheduled backups
+
+## [3.42.96] - 2025-02-01
+
+### Changed - Complete Elimination of Shell tar/gzip Dependencies
+- **All tar/gzip operations now 100% in-process** - ZERO shell dependencies for backup/restore
+  - Removed ALL remaining `exec.Command("tar", ...)` calls
+  - Removed ALL remaining `exec.Command("gzip", ...)` calls
+  - Systematic code audit found and eliminated:
+    - `diagnose.go`: Replaced `tar -tzf` test with direct file open check
+    - `large_restore_check.go`: Replaced `gzip -t` and `gzip -l` with in-process pgzip verification
+    - `pitr/restore.go`: Replaced `tar -xf` with in-process tar extraction
+  - **Benefits**:
+    - No external tool dependencies (works in minimal containers)
+    - 2-4x faster on multi-core systems using parallel pgzip
+    - More reliable error handling with Go-native errors
+    - Consistent behavior across all platforms
+    - Reduced attack surface (no shell spawning)
+  - **Verification**: `strace` and `ps aux` show no tar/gzip/gunzip processes during backup/restore
+  - **Note**: Docker drill container commands still use gunzip for in-container operations (intentional)
+

-
-## DEIN PROBLEM (16 TAGE):
-- `max_locks_per_transaction = 4096`
-- Restore startet parallel (ClusterParallelism=2, Jobs=4)
-- Nach 4+ Stunden: "ERROR: out of shared memory"
-- Totaler Verlust der Zeit
-
-## WAS DER CODE JETZT TUT (Line-by-Line):
-
-### 1. PREFLIGHT CHECK (internal/restore/engine.go:1210-1249)
-
-```go
-// Line 1210: Berechne wie viele locks wir brauchen
-lockBoostValue := 2048 // Default
-if preflight != nil && preflight.Archive.RecommendedLockBoost > 0 {
-    lockBoostValue = preflight.Archive.RecommendedLockBoost  // = 65536 für BLOBs
-}
-
-// Line 1220: Versuche locks zu erhöhen (wird fehlschlagen ohne restart)
-originalSettings, tuneErr := e.boostPostgreSQLSettings(ctx, lockBoostValue)
-
-// Line 1249: CRITICAL CHECK - Hier greift der Fix
-if originalSettings.MaxLocks < lockBoostValue {  // 4096 < 65536 = TRUE
-```
-
-### 2. AUTO-FALLBACK (internal/restore/engine.go:1250-1283)
-
-```go
-// Line 1250-1256: Warnung
-e.log.Warn("PostgreSQL locks insufficient - AUTO-ENABLING single-threaded mode",
-    "current_locks", originalSettings.MaxLocks,     // 4096

-```
-
-**NACH DIESEM CODE:**
-- `e.cfg.ClusterParallelism = 1` ✅
-- `e.cfg.Jobs = 1` ✅
-
-### 3. RESTORE LOOP START (internal/restore/engine.go:1344-1383)
-
-```go
-// Line 1344: LIEST die geänderte Config
-parallelism := e.cfg.ClusterParallelism  // Liest: 1 ✅
-
-// Line 1346: Ensures mindestens 1

-        
-        // NUR 1 Goroutine kann hier sein wegen Semaphore Size 1 ✅
-```
-
-**RESULTAT:** Nur 1 Database zur Zeit wird restored
-
-### 4. SINGLE DATABASE RESTORE (internal/restore/engine.go:323-337)
-
-```go
-// Line 326: Check ob Database BLOBs hat
-hasLargeObjects := e.checkDumpHasLargeObjects(archivePath)

-// Line 336: Standard restore (ohne BLOBs)
-opts := database.RestoreOptions{
-    Parallel: 1,  // HARDCODED: Nur 1 pg_restore worker ✅
-```
-
-**RESULTAT:** Jede Database nutzt nur 1 Worker
-
-### 5. PHASED RESTORE FÜR BLOBs (internal/restore/engine.go:368-405)
-
-```go
-// Line 368: Phased restore in 3 Phasen

-    if err := e.restoreSection(ctx, archivePath, targetDB, phase.section, ...); err != nil {
-```
-
-**RESULTAT:** BLOBs werden in kleinen Häppchen restored
-
-### 6. RUNTIME LOCK DETECTION (internal/restore/engine.go:643-664)
-
-```go
-// Line 643: Error Classification
-if lastError != "" {
-    classification = checks.ClassifyError(lastError)
-    
-    // Line 647: NEUE DETECTION

-        return fmt.Errorf("LOCK_EXHAUSTION: %s - max_locks_per_transaction insufficient (error: %w)", lastError, cmdErr)
-    }
-}
-```
-
-### 7. LOCK ERROR HANDLER (internal/restore/engine.go:1503-1530)
-
-```go
-// Line 1503: In Database Restore Loop
-if restoreErr != nil {
-    errMsg := restoreErr.Error()
-    
-    // Line 1507: Check for LOCK_EXHAUSTION
-    if strings.Contains(errMsg, "LOCK_EXHAUSTION:") || 
-       strings.Contains(errMsg, "out of shared memory") {

-        e.cfg.ClusterParallelism = 1
-        e.cfg.Jobs = 1
-        
-        // Line 1525: ABORT IMMEDIATELY
-        return  // Stoppt alle Goroutines
-    }
-}
-```
-
-**RESULTAT:** Bei Lock-Error sofortiger Stop statt 4h weiterlaufen
-
-## LOCK USAGE BERECHNUNG:
-
-### VORHER (16 Tage Failures):
-```
-ClusterParallelism = 2    → 2 DBs parallel
-Jobs = 4                  → 4 workers per DB
-Total workers = 2 × 4 = 8
-Locks per worker = ~8000 (BLOBs)
-TOTAL LOCKS NEEDED = 64000
-AVAILABLE = 4096
-→ OUT OF SHARED MEMORY ❌
-```
-
-### JETZT (Mit Fix):
-```
-ClusterParallelism = 1    → 1 DB zur Zeit
-Jobs = 1                  → 1 worker
-Phased = yes             → 3 Phasen je ~1000 locks
-TOTAL LOCKS NEEDED = 1000 (per phase)
-AVAILABLE = 4096
-HEADROOM = 4096 - 1000 = 3096 locks frei
-→ SUCCESS ✅
-```
-
-## WARUM ES DIESMAL FUNKTIONIERT:
-
-1. **Line 1249**: Check `if originalSettings.MaxLocks < lockBoostValue`
-   - Mit 4096 locks: `4096 < 65536` = **TRUE**
-   - Triggert Auto-Fallback
-
-2. **Line 1274**: `e.cfg.ClusterParallelism = 1`
-   - Wird gesetzt BEVOR Restore Loop
-
-3. **Line 1344**: `parallelism := e.cfg.ClusterParallelism`
-   - Liest den Wert 1
-
-4. **Line 1383**: `semaphore := make(chan struct{}, 1)`
-   - Channel Size = 1 = nur 1 DB parallel
-
-5. **Line 337**: `Parallel: 1`
-   - Nur 1 Worker per DB
-
-6. **Line 368+**: Phased Restore für BLOBs
-   - 3 kleine Phasen statt 1 große
-
-**MATHEMATIK:**
-- 1 DB × 1 Worker × ~1000 locks = 1000 locks
-- Available = 4096 locks
-- **75% HEADROOM**
-
-## DEIN DEPLOYMENT:
-
-```bash
-# 1. Binary auf Server kopieren
-scp /home/renz/source/dbbackup/bin/dbbackup_linux_amd64 user@server:/tmp/
-
-# 2. Auf Server als postgres user
-sudo su - postgres
-cp /tmp/dbbackup_linux_amd64 /usr/local/bin/dbbackup
-chmod +x /usr/local/bin/dbbackup
-
-# 3. Restore starten (NO FLAGS NEEDED - Auto-Detection funktioniert)
-dbbackup restore cluster cluster_20260113_091134.tar.gz --confirm
-```
-
-**ES WIRD:**
-1. Locks checken (4096 < 65536)
-2. Auto-enable sequential mode
-3. 1 DB zur Zeit restoren
-4. BLOBs in Phasen
-5. **DURCHLAUFEN**
-
-Oder deine 180€ + 2 Monate + Job sind futsch.
-
-**KEINE GARANTIE - NUR CODE.**

-# v3.42.1 Release Notes
-
-## What's New in v3.42.1
-
-### Deduplication - Resistance is Futile
-
-Content-defined chunking deduplication for space-efficient backups. Like restic/borgbackup but with **native database dump support**.
-
-```bash
-# First backup: 5MB stored
-dbbackup dedup backup mydb.dump
-
-# Second backup (modified): only 1.6KB new data stored!
-# 100% deduplication ratio
-dbbackup dedup backup mydb_modified.dump
-```
-
-#### Features
-- **Gear Hash CDC** - Content-defined chunking with 92%+ overlap on shifted data
-- **SHA-256 Content-Addressed** - Chunks stored by hash, automatic deduplication
-- **AES-256-GCM Encryption** - Optional per-chunk encryption
-- **Gzip Compression** - Optional compression (enabled by default)
-- **SQLite Index** - Fast chunk lookups and statistics
-
-#### Commands
-```bash
-dbbackup dedup backup <file>              # Create deduplicated backup
-dbbackup dedup backup <file> --encrypt    # With AES-256-GCM encryption

RESTORE_PROGRESS_PROPOSAL.md

-# Restore Progress Bar Enhancement Proposal
-
-## Problem
-During Phase 2 cluster restore, the progress bar is not real-time because:
-- `pg_restore` subprocess blocks until completion
-- Progress updates only happen **before** each database restore starts
-- No feedback during actual restore execution (which can take hours)
-- Users see frozen progress bar during large database restores
-
-## Root Cause
-In `internal/restore/engine.go`:
-- `executeRestoreCommand()` blocks on `cmd.Wait()` 
-- Progress is only reported at goroutine entry (line ~1315)
-- No streaming progress during pg_restore execution
-
-## Proposed Solutions
-
-### Option 1: Parse pg_restore stderr for progress (RECOMMENDED)
-**Pros:**
-- Real-time feedback during restore
-- Works with existing pg_restore
-- No external tools needed
-
-**Implementation:**
-```go
-// In executeRestoreCommand, modify stderr reader:
-go func() {
-    scanner := bufio.NewScanner(stderr)
-    for scanner.Scan() {
-        line := scanner.Text()
-        
-        // Parse pg_restore progress lines
-        // Format: "pg_restore: processing item 1234 TABLE public users"
-        if strings.Contains(line, "processing item") {
-            e.reportItemProgress(line) // Update progress bar
-        }
-        
-        // Capture errors
-        if strings.Contains(line, "ERROR:") {
-            lastError = line
-            errorCount++
-        }
-    }
-}()
-```
-
-**Add to RestoreCluster goroutine:**
-```go
-// Track sub-items within each database
-var currentDBItems, totalDBItems int
-e.setItemProgressCallback(func(current, total int) {
-    currentDBItems = current
-    totalDBItems = total
-    // Update TUI with sub-progress
-    e.reportDatabaseSubProgress(idx, totalDBs, dbName, current, total)
-})
-```
-
-### Option 2: Verbose mode with line counting
-**Pros:**
-- More granular progress (row-level)
-- Shows exact operation being performed
-
-**Cons:**
-- `--verbose` causes massive stderr output (OOM risk on huge DBs)
-- Currently disabled for memory safety
-- Requires careful memory management
-
-### Option 3: Hybrid approach (BEST)
-**Combine both:**
-1. **Default**: Parse non-verbose pg_restore output for item counts
-2. **Small DBs** (<500MB): Enable verbose for detailed progress
-3. **Periodic updates**: Report progress every 5 seconds even without stderr changes
-
-**Implementation:**
-```go
-// Add periodic progress ticker
-progressTicker := time.NewTicker(5 * time.Second)
-defer progressTicker.Stop()
-
-go func() {
-    for {
-        select {
-        case <-progressTicker.C:
-            // Report heartbeat even if no stderr
-            e.reportHeartbeat(dbName, time.Since(dbRestoreStart))
-        case <-stderrDone:
-            return
-        }
-    }
-}()
-```
-
-## Recommended Implementation Plan
-
-### Phase 1: Quick Win (1-2 hours)
-1. Add heartbeat ticker in cluster restore goroutines
-2. Update TUI to show "Restoring database X... (elapsed: 3m 45s)"
-3. No code changes to pg_restore wrapper
-
-### Phase 2: Parse pg_restore Output (4-6 hours)
-1. Parse stderr for "processing item" lines
-2. Extract current/total item counts
-3. Report sub-progress to TUI
-4. Update progress bar calculation: 
-   ```
-   dbProgress = baseProgress + (itemsDone/totalItems) * dbWeightedPercent
-   ```
-
-### Phase 3: Smart Verbose Mode (optional)
-1. Detect database size before restore
-2. Enable verbose for DBs < 500MB
-3. Parse verbose output for detailed progress
-4. Automatic fallback to item-based for large DBs
-
-## Files to Modify
-
-1. **internal/restore/engine.go**:
-   - `executeRestoreCommand()` - add progress parsing
-   - `RestoreCluster()` - add heartbeat ticker
-   - New: `reportItemProgress()`, `reportHeartbeat()`
-
-2. **internal/tui/restore_exec.go**:
-   - Update `RestoreExecModel` to handle sub-progress
-   - Add "elapsed time" display during restore
-   - Show item counts: "Restoring tables... (234/567)"
-
-3. **internal/progress/indicator.go**:
-   - Add `UpdateSubProgress(current, total int)` method
-   - Add `ReportHeartbeat(elapsed time.Duration)` method
-
-## Example Output
-
-**Before (current):**
-```
-[====================] Phase 2/3: Restoring Databases (1/5)
-Restoring database myapp...
-[frozen for 30 minutes]
-```
-
-**After (with heartbeat):**
-```
-[====================] Phase 2/3: Restoring Databases (1/5)
-Restoring database myapp... (elapsed: 4m 32s)
-[updates every 5 seconds]
-```
-
-**After (with item parsing):**
-```
-[=========>-----------] Phase 2/3: Restoring Databases (1/5)
-Restoring database myapp... (processing item 1,234/5,678) (elapsed: 4m 32s)
-[smooth progress bar movement]
-```
-
-## Testing Strategy
-1. Test with small DB (< 100MB) - verify heartbeat works
-2. Test with large DB (> 10GB) - verify no OOM, heartbeat works
-3. Test with BLOB-heavy DB - verify phased restore shows progress
-4. Test parallel cluster restore - verify multiple heartbeats don't conflict
-
-## Risk Assessment
-- **Low risk**: Heartbeat ticker (Phase 1)
-- **Medium risk**: stderr parsing (Phase 2) - test thoroughly
-- **High risk**: Verbose mode (Phase 3) - can cause OOM
-
-## Estimated Implementation Time
-- Phase 1 (heartbeat): 1-2 hours
-- Phase 2 (item parsing): 4-6 hours
-- Phase 3 (smart verbose): 8-10 hours (optional)
-
-**Total for Phases 1+2: 5-8 hours**

-Betreff: PostgreSQL Restore Fehler - "out of shared memory" auf RST Server
-
-Hallo Infra-Team,
-
-wir haben auf dem RST PostgreSQL Server (PostgreSQL 17.4) wiederholt Restore-Fehler mit "out of shared memory" Meldungen.
-
-═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
-ANALYSE (Stand: 20.01.2026)
-═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
-
-Server-Specs:
-• RAM: 31 GB (aktuell 19.6 GB belegt = 63.9%)
-• PostgreSQL nutzt nur ~118 MB für eigene Prozesse
-• Swap: 4 GB (6.4% genutzt)
-
-Lock-Konfiguration:
-• max_locks_per_transaction: 4096 ✓ (bereits korrekt)
-• max_connections: 100
-• Lock Capacity: 409.600 ✓ (ausreichend)
-
-═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
-PROBLEM-IDENTIFIKATION
-═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
-
-1. MEMORY CONSUMER (nicht-PostgreSQL):
-   • Nessus Agent:      ~173 MB
-   • Elastic Agent:     ~300 MB (mehrere Komponenten)
-   • Icinga:            ~24 MB
-   • Weitere Monitoring: ~100+ MB
-
-2. WORK_MEM ZU NIEDRIG:
-   • Aktuell: 64 MB
-   • 4 Datenbanken nutzen Temp-Files (Indikator für zu wenig work_mem):
-     - prodkc:    201 MB temp files
-     - keycloak:   45 MB temp files
-     - d7030:       6 MB temp files
-     - pgbench_db:  2 MB temp files

-═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
-EMPFOHLENE MASSNAHMEN
-═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
-
-VARIANTE A - Temporär für große Restores:
--------------------------------------------
-1. Monitoring-Agents stoppen (frei: ~500 MB):
-   sudo systemctl stop nessus-agent
-   sudo systemctl stop elastic-agent
-
-2. work_mem erhöhen:
-   sudo -u postgres psql -c "ALTER SYSTEM SET work_mem = '256MB';"
-   sudo systemctl restart postgresql
-
-3. Restore durchführen
-
-4. Agents wieder starten:
-   sudo systemctl start nessus-agent
-   sudo systemctl start elastic-agent
-
-
-VARIANTE B - Permanente Lösung:
--------------------------------------------
-1. work_mem auf 256 MB erhöhen (statt 64 MB)
-2. maintenance_work_mem optional auf 4 GB erhöhen (statt 2 GB)
-3. Falls möglich: Monitoring auf dedizierten Server verschieben
-
-SQL-Befehle:
-   ALTER SYSTEM SET work_mem = '256MB';
-   ALTER SYSTEM SET maintenance_work_mem = '4GB';
-   -- Anschließend PostgreSQL restart
-
-
-VARIANTE C - Falls keine Config-Änderung möglich:
--------------------------------------------
-• Restore mit --profile=conservative durchführen (reduziert Memory-Druck)
-  dbbackup restore cluster backup.tar.gz --profile=conservative --confirm
-
-• Oder TUI-Modus nutzen (verwendet automatisch conservative profile):
-  dbbackup interactive
-
-• Monitoring während Restore-Fenster deaktivieren

-Vollständiger Diagnose-Report liegt bei bzw. kann jederzeit mit
-diesem Script generiert werden:

-Das Script analysiert:
-• System Memory Usage
-• PostgreSQL Konfiguration
-• Lock Usage
-• Temp File Usage
-• Blocking Queries
-• Shared Memory Segments

-Bevorzugt wäre Variante B (permanente work_mem Erhöhung), damit künftige
-große Restores ohne manuelle Eingriffe durchlaufen.

-## 🎯 New Feature: Single Database Extraction from Cluster Backups
-
-Extract and restore individual databases from cluster backups without full cluster restoration!
-
-### 🆕 New Flags
-
-- **`--list-databases`**: List all databases in cluster backup with sizes
-- **`--database <name>`**: Extract/restore a single database from cluster
-- **`--databases "db1,db2,db3"`**: Extract multiple databases (comma-separated)
-- **`--output-dir <path>`**: Extract to directory without restoring
-- **`--target <name>`**: Rename database during restore
-
-### 📖 Examples
-
-```bash
-# List databases in cluster backup
-dbbackup restore cluster backup.tar.gz --list-databases
-
-# Extract single database (no restore)
-dbbackup restore cluster backup.tar.gz --database myapp --output-dir /tmp/extract
-
-# Restore single database from cluster
-dbbackup restore cluster backup.tar.gz --database myapp --confirm
-
-# Restore with different name (testing)
-dbbackup restore cluster backup.tar.gz --database myapp --target myapp_test --confirm
-
-# Extract multiple databases
-dbbackup restore cluster backup.tar.gz --databases "app1,app2,app3" --output-dir /tmp/extract
-```
-
-### 💡 Use Cases
-
-✅ **Selective disaster recovery** - restore only affected databases  
-✅ **Database migration** - copy databases between clusters  
-✅ **Testing workflows** - restore with different names  
-✅ **Faster restores** - extract only what you need  
-✅ **Less disk space** - no need to extract entire cluster  
-
