Learning: In plugins/in_tail/tail_file.c, when truncate_long_lines is enabled and the buffer is full, the early truncation path uses `lines > 0` as the validation pattern to confirm whether process_content successfully processed content. This is intentional to track occurrences of line processing rather than byte consumption, and consuming bytes based on `processed_bytes > 0` would be overkill for this validation purpose.

1451-1472: Consider adding a warning for compressed files with buffered data.While the fix correctly excludes compressed files (where rewinding isn't possible due to gzip decompression state requirements), users monitoring
.gzfiles may be unaware that buffered data can still be lost on shutdown. Consider adding a debug or warning message similar to:if (file->buf_len > 0) { if (file->decompression_context != NULL) { flb_plg_debug(ctx->ins, "inode=%"PRIu64" compressed file %s has %lu bytes buffered; " "rewind not supported for compressed files", file->inode, file->name, (unsigned long)file->buf_len); } else { /* existing rewind logic */ ... } }This would help users understand the limitation without affecting correctness.

1451-1472: LGTM! Rewind logic correctly prevents data loss for regular files.The implementation properly addresses the data loss issue when Fluent Bit shuts down with unprocessed buffered data:
- The condition
file->buf_len > 0 && file->decompression_context == NULLcorrectly identifies regular files with unprocessed data while excluding compressed files (where offset and buf_len have incompatible units).- The rewind arithmetic
offset -= buf_len(clamped to 0) correctly repositions the file offset to the start of unprocessed data.- The DB persistence call ensures the rewound offset survives restarts.
This addresses the core issue described in #11265 where partial lines and buffered data were lost on restart.

1451-1472: Core rewind logic looks correct; consider adding warning for compressed files.The check for
file->decompression_context == NULLproperly prevents the compressed-file arithmetic bug flagged in earlier reviews. For regular files, the offset and buffer length are in the same units, so the subtraction and DB update are valid.However, when compressed files have buffered decompressed data at shutdown, that data will be silently lost (since rewinding is skipped). Consider logging a warning in that case so users are aware:
if (file->buf_len > 0 && file->decompression_context == NULL) { /* * If there is data in the buffer, it means it was not processed. * We must rewind the offset to ensure this data is re-read on restart. */ off_t old_offset = file->offset; if (file->offset > file->buf_len) { file->offset -= file->buf_len; } else { file->offset = 0; } flb_plg_debug(ctx->ins, "inode=%"PRIu64" rewind offset for %s: old=%"PRId64" new=%"PRId64" (buf_len=%lu)", file->inode, file->name, old_offset, file->offset, (unsigned long)file->buf_len); #ifdef FLB_HAVE_SQLDB if (ctx->db) { flb_tail_db_file_offset(file, ctx); } #endif +} +else if (file->buf_len > 0 && file->decompression_context != NULL) { + flb_plg_warn(ctx->ins, "inode=%"PRIu64" cannot rewind compressed file %s; " + "%lu decompressed bytes in buffer may be lost on restart", + file->inode, file->name, (unsigned long)file->buf_len); }

182-220: Minor type inconsistency:skipmixes uint64_t and int64_t.The
skipfield is declared asuint64_tin C (lines 184, 324) but is read/written usingsqlite3_column_int64andsqlite3_bind_int64which operate onint64_t. While unlikely to cause issues in practice (skip_bytes won't exceedINT64_MAX), this inconsistency could theoretically cause sign-extension or overflow issues with very large values.For consistency and correctness, consider using
int64_tforskipthroughout, or explicitly cast to/fromuint64_twith overflow checks.Also applies to: 262-263, 323-324, 372-375

Learning: In plugins/in_tail/tail_file.c, when truncate_long_lines is enabled and the buffer is full, the early truncation path uses `lines > 0` as the validation pattern to confirm whether process_content successfully processed content. This is intentional to track occurrences of line processing rather than byte consumption, and consuming bytes based on `processed_bytes > 0` would be overkill for this validation purpose.

Learning: In Fluent Bit, ZSTD compression is enabled by default and is treated as a core dependency, not requiring conditional compilation guards like `#ifdef FLB_HAVE_ZSTD`. Unlike some other optional components such as ARROW/PARQUET (which use `#ifdef FLB_HAVE_ARROW` guards), ZSTD support is always available and doesn't need build-time conditionals. ZSTD headers are included directly without guards across multiple plugins and core components.

🔇 Additional comments (11)
plugins/in_tail/tail_sql.h (2)
37-40: LGTM: Schema extension for gzip resume state.The addition of
skipandanchorcolumns with appropriate defaults enables the anchor+skip mechanism for gzip file resume. The trailing comma afterrotatedand the column definitions are syntactically correct.
45-47: LGTM: SQL statements updated for new columns.The INSERT and UPDATE statements correctly include the new
skipandanchorfields with proper parameter binding.Also applies to: 52-53
plugins/in_tail/tail_db.c (4)
28-34: LGTM: Column existence detection callback.The callback correctly sets the found flag when any row is returned by the PRAGMA query, enabling reliable migration detection.
61-108: LGTM: Migration logic addresses past concerns.The migration now uses
PRAGMA table_infoto reliably detect column existence instead of attempting a SELECT that could misfire on DB errors. The error handling properly aborts if the PRAGMA query itself fails, and column addition proceeds only when the column is confirmed absent.
348-359: LGTM: Skipping mode initialization from DB state.The initialization logic correctly sets
exclude_bytesandskipping_modewhen resuming from a saved gzip position withskip_bytes > 0. This properly restores the runtime state needed to skip already-processed decompressed data on restart.
444-444: LGTM: Prevent resurrecting deleted DB entries.Resetting
db_idtoFLB_TAIL_DB_ID_NONEafter deletion ensures that subsequent offset updates won't inadvertently recreate the deleted entry. This addresses the concern raised in past review comments.plugins/in_tail/tail_file.c (5)
1315-1324: LGTM: New gzip resume fields initialized.All new fields (
anchor_offset,skip_bytes,exclude_bytes,skipping_mode) are properly initialized for newly tracked files. The use ofFLB_TAIL_DB_ID_NONEis consistent with the deletion handling.
1495-1534: LGTM: Rewind logic correctly handles buffered data.The rewind implementation properly addresses the stated objectives:
- Uncompressed files: Rewinds
offsetbybuf_len(clamped to 0) so unprocessed bytes are re-read on restart- Compressed files: Logs a warning that buffered decompressed data cannot be safely rewound due to streaming decompression, accepting the known limitation
- DB protection: Checks
db_id > FLB_TAIL_DB_ID_NONEto prevent updating deleted entries- Format specifiers: Uses proper
%jdwith(intmax_t)casts foroff_tvalues
1654-1657: LGTM: Truncation resets gzip resume state.All gzip-related fields (
anchor_offset,skip_bytes,exclude_bytes,skipping_mode) are properly reset when the file is truncated, ensuring stale skip state doesn't persist after truncation. This addresses the concern raised in past review comments.
1857-1877: LGTM: Skip mechanism correctly excludes already-processed data.The skip logic properly decrements
exclude_bytesas decompressed data is produced, usingmemmoveto discard the skipped portion when a partial skip occurs, and clearingskipping_modewhen the skip completes. This correctly implements the runtime skip countdown for gzip resume.
1918-1939: LGTM: Gzip member boundary detection updates anchor points.Line 1919 increments
skip_bytesbyprocessed_bytesafter each chunk is processed, tracking decompressed progress within the current gzip member. When a member completes (decompressor state isEXPECTING_HEADER, buffers are empty), the code updatesanchor_offsetto the current compressed position and resetsskip_bytesto 0, establishing a new resume point at the member boundary. This correctly implements the anchor+skip strategy for gzip files.

Please let me know if there are any other concerns. |

I found a potential issue but we could be skipped in this PR: Interaction with multiline + gzip (MEDIUM risk, but acceptable)There’s a subtle corner: Scenario:
Risk: If shutdown occurs between
and
then DB may lag by one chunk. This results in small duplication, not loss. This scenario could be still a main risk to behind the right offset of tailing gzipped files but this just causes duplicated contents of gzipped files. This could be technically difficult to solve this. So, we need to describe such corner case if we accept this behavior. Other risks are still existing in this patch but others are relatively too small than this. Plus, it's just a logging issue but should we need to show altering database when starting to do this operation? This is just my curiosity. |

258-263: Verify SQL_INSERT_FILE parameter order and address skip_bytes type mismatch.The bindings at lines 258-263 correctly match SQL_INSERT_FILE's parameter order (name, offset, inode, created, skip, anchor). However,
skip_bytesis defined asuint64_tbut bound viasqlite3_bind_int64, which expects a signedsqlite3_int64. While values exceedingINT64_MAXare unlikely for a byte offset, consider either casting toint64_texplicitly or usingsqlite3_bind_int64with a comment documenting the assumption thatskip_bytesremains within signed int64 range.
🧹 Nitpick comments (1)
plugins/in_tail/tail_file.c (1)
1027-1141: Document multi-member gzip stream_offset limitation more prominently.The comment at lines 1090-1095 acknowledges that
stream_offset = skip_bytesis only correct for single-member gzip files. For multi-member gzip,skip_bytesresets at member boundaries, sostream_offsetwon't reflect total decompressed bytes from all prior members. This could affectoffset_keyaccuracy when users concatenate multiple gzip streams.Consider either:
- Adding a more prominent warning in the code or documentation that
offset_keyfor multi-member gzip reflects position within the current member, not total decompressed bytes across all members.- Tracking total decompressed bytes separately if multi-member gzip is a common use case.
Otherwise, the seek logic correctly handles DB-backed resume for both gzip and plain files, with proper initialization of
stream_offset,exclude_bytes, andskipping_mode.

plugins/in_tail/tail_db.c (6)
28-34: LGTM!The column-existence callback is correctly implemented. It properly sets the flag when a row is returned from the pragma query, enabling reliable column detection for schema migration.
61-108: LGTM!The migration logic correctly uses
pragma_table_infoto detect column existence, distinguishing real errors from missing columns. The pattern is consistent for bothskipandanchorcolumns, with proper error handling and logging.
318-363: LGTM!The function correctly restores
skip_bytesandanchor_offsetfrom the database and initializes the runtime-onlyexclude_bytesandskipping_modefields based on the persisted skip state. The logic properly handles both cases (skip > 0 and skip == 0).
424-446: LGTM!Resetting
db_idtoFLB_TAIL_DB_ID_NONEafter deletion prevents accidental resurrection of deleted DB entries whenflb_tail_db_file_offsetis called later. This is an important safeguard for data integrity.
365-398: The parameter binding order inflb_tail_db_file_offsetcorrectly matches theSQL_UPDATE_OFFSETstatement: offset (parameter 1), skip (parameter 2), anchor (parameter 3), and id (parameter 4).
182-221: Column indices for skip and anchor are correct.The code correctly reads
skipfrom column index 6 andanchorfrom column index 7, matching the table schema defined in SQL_CREATE_FILES. WhenSELECT *is executed, SQLite returns columns in the order they appear in the table definition: id (0), name (1), offset (2), inode (3), created (4), rotated (5), skip (6), and anchor (7).plugins/in_tail/tail_fs_inotify.c (1)
259-281: LGTM!The truncation handler correctly resets all gzip resume state fields (
anchor_offset,skip_bytes,exclude_bytes,skipping_mode) alongside the file offset and buffer, ensuring a clean state after truncation. This initialization is consistent with similar handling intail_fs_stat.candadjust_countersintail_file.c.plugins/in_tail/tail_sql.h (3)
30-40: LGTM!The table schema correctly adds
skipandanchorcolumns withINTEGER DEFAULT 0, ensuring backward compatibility with existing databases. Column indices (skip=6, anchor=7) align with the reads indb_file_exists.
45-47: LGTM!The
SQL_INSERT_FILEstatement correctly includesskipandanchorin both the column list and VALUES clause. The parameter order matches the binding sequence indb_file_insert(tail_db.c lines 258-263).
52-53: LGTM!The
SQL_UPDATE_OFFSETstatement correctly updates all three position-tracking fields (offset,skip,anchor) atomically. The parameter order matches the binding sequence inflb_tail_db_file_offset(tail_db.c lines 372-375).plugins/in_tail/tail_file.c (6)
47-47: LGTM!Including
flb_compression.his appropriate for the gzip decompression functionality added in this PR.
1328-1338: LGTM!All gzip resume fields (
anchor_offset,skip_bytes,exclude_bytes,skipping_mode) are correctly initialized to zero/false when a new file is appended, ensuring clean initial state.
1509-1548: LGTM!The offset rewind logic correctly handles buffered data on shutdown:
- For non-compressed files: rewinds the offset by
buf_len(with bounds checking) so unprocessed data is re-read on restart.- For compressed files: logs a warning explaining that accurate rewinding is infeasible with streaming decompression.
- DB updates are properly guarded by
db_id > FLB_TAIL_DB_ID_NONEto prevent resurrecting deleted entries.This addresses the data loss issue described in the PR objectives.
1657-1679: LGTM!The truncation handler in
adjust_counterscorrectly resets all gzip resume state fields (anchor_offset,skip_bytes,exclude_bytes,skipping_mode) when a file is truncated, consistent with the inotify and stat-based truncation handlers.
1871-1891: LGTM!The skip logic during decompression correctly handles resuming from a mid-stream position:
- When
exclude_bytes >= decompressed_data_length, all newly decompressed data is skipped andexclude_bytesis decremented.- When
exclude_bytes < decompressed_data_length, the remaining bytes are shifted to the buffer start usingmemmove, andskipping_modeis cleared.This enables accurate gzip resume from the persisted
skip_bytesposition.
1932-1953: LGTM!The gzip member boundary handling correctly tracks position using the anchor/skip pattern:
skip_bytesis incremented byprocessed_bytesto track position within the current member.- When a member completes (decompressor transitions to
EXPECTING_HEADERstate and all buffers are empty),anchor_offsetadvances to the current raw file position andskip_bytesresets to 0.This enables resume at member boundaries for multi-member gzip files, addressing the data loss issue for compressed inputs mentioned in the PR objectives.

Thanks for the detailed analysis. I fully agree with your opinion. Although there is a risk of duplication in case of abrupt shutdown, it is technically difficult to solve completely, and duplication is definitely better than data loss. Also, regarding your question about the logs, I have changed the log level of the database migration messages to debug. This ensures they are not too noisy during normal operation while still being available for troubleshooting if needed. Finally, should I add a note about the limitation (potential duplication on crash) to the documentation? I think adding a warning/note to the 'Database file' section would be helpful for users. Let me know what you think! |

I found a small nitpick issue but your PR is not following our coding style.
So, we need to follow the style of defining variables.
I suppose that we need to Note annotations to depicts the possibility for database corruptions in the official documentation which should be corresponding PR for documentation. This could be corner cases but it's technically hard to solve cleanly. |

- Added test for offset rewind on shutdown (prevent DB resurrection) - Added gzip tests: resume loss, inotify append, rotation, multi resume Signed-off-by: jinyong.choi <inimax801@gmail.com>
Unprocessed buffered data is lost on shutdown because the file offset is saved ahead of processing. This patch rewinds the offset by the remaining buffer length on exit, ensuring data is re-read on restart. Also, to prevent resurrecting deleted files in the DB, db_id is reset to 0 upon deletion. The offset update logic now checks db_id > 0 to ensure only active files are updated. Signed-off-by: jinyong.choi <inimax801@gmail.com>
Add skip, anchor and stream columns to the tail DB schema to track gzip decompression state across restarts. On resume, the anchor_offset determines the raw file seek position, skip_bytes controls how many decompressed bytes to discard before emitting records, and stream carries the logical decompressed position reported through offset_key. The logical position needs its own column because skip_bytes only counts bytes within the current gzip member and is reset at every member boundary, so a multi-member file would otherwise report offsets that go backwards after a restart. The bookkeeping that runs after each processed batch lives in a shared helper so every path that consumes decompressed bytes keeps skip_bytes and the member anchor in sync. When a member completes while a resume is still discarding previously emitted data, the anchor moves forward and skip_bytes carries the amount that is still pending, so a restart at that point does not replay those records. Includes DB schema migration for older databases, integration with the offset_marker validation from upstream, and proper reset of skip, anchor and stream state when stale DB positions are detected. Signed-off-by: jinyong.choi <inimax801@gmail.com>
Adapt the db_offset_rewind_on_shutdown test to work with the upstream flb_tail_file_db_offset() auto-rewind behavior. The DB offset now automatically accounts for buffered incomplete lines, so the test no longer polls for offset advancement and instead verifies data is re-read on restart. The gzip callback runs on the engine thread while the test thread polls and asserts, so every access to the shared counters goes through result_mutex, matching the rest of this file. The multi-member resume test only counted records, which would still pass if an old line were replayed instead of the newly appended one. It now records the line each run must emit and asserts it, and enables offset_key to verify the reported offset keeps growing across gzip members. Signed-off-by: jinyong.choi <inimax801@gmail.com>
The inotify backend resets the logical stream position through flb_tail_file_reset_on_truncate(), but the stat backend rewound the raw offset without touching stream_offset or last_processed_bytes. A record emitted right after a stat-detected truncation could therefore report an offset_key derived from the old file contents, and the two backends disagreed about the same file. Reset both fields so the stat path matches the shared helper. Signed-off-by: jinyong.choi <inimax801@gmail.com>

The existing gzip tests stop once a member has been consumed, so the anchor has already moved on and only a short skip remains on restart. Resuming inside a single member keeps the anchor at the start of the file and has to discard every byte already emitted, over many rounds. The test runs in_tail twice over a one-member file. The first run reads it end to end and lets in_tail create the database, so the test carries no copy of the schema. The row is then rewound into the middle of the member and the second run must emit exactly the remaining half, in order and without duplicates. Signed-off-by: jinyong.choi <inimax801@gmail.com>

Added Thanks |
Unprocessed data in the internal buffer is discarded when Fluent Bit stops, causing data loss because the DB offset is already advanced.
This patch fixes the issue by rewinding the file offset by the remaining buffer length on exit, ensuring data is re-read on restart.
For compressed gzip files, a separate issue caused data duplication after restart because skip_bytes was incorrectly decremented during runtime. A new field 'exclude_bytes' is introduced as a runtime-only counter, preserving skip_bytes for correct DB persistence.
Additionally, this patch prevents resurrecting deleted file entries in the DB by resetting db_id to 0 upon deletion and checking it before updating the offset.
The SQLite schema is updated to include 'anchor_offset' and 'skip_bytes' columns. On upgrade from older versions, these columns are automatically added via ALTER TABLE if they do not exist.
