+# Backups
+
+The backup scheme implemented in `/etc/init.d/luci_statistics` aims to
+limit writes to stable storage, to preserve flash memory lifetime.
+(Flash-memory based routers may have limited lifetime of write cycles,
+we want to conserve those.) While it would be simpler to run a periodic
+backup as a cron job, you'd risk wearing out the flash memory. This
+scheme only writes backups to flash during shutdowns/reboots and
+upgrades.
+
+The backup is only enabled if the administrator sets
+`luci_statistics.collectd_rrdtool.backup=1`.
+
+We only want to restore a sysupgrade backup file if:
+
+1. It was installed by `sysupgrade -r` (restore configuration files), and
+ we have rebooted. In this case, there is an orderly shutdown that calls
+ the shutdown methods. We do not want to overwrite the
+ restored sysupgrade backup file during shutdown, but after reboot we
+ do want to restore it.
+
+1. It was generated during a true sysupgrade, and we are rebooting into
+ the new image: `sysupgrade` with any or none of `-o`, `-c`, `-f`,
+ `-u`, resulting in a new image being installed and a config file
+ being preserved for processing after reboot. In this case we do not
+ want to overwrite the backup while rebooting during the upgrade.
+ `sysupgrade` in this case stores a `.tgz` archive of all preserved
+ files where it can be found after rebooting into the new image, and
+ it does not run the shutdown scripts before rebooting.
+
+When the administrator runs `sysupgrade -b` (command line or LuCI), we
+create a sysupgrade backup file and it is included in the combined
+backup. Then the system continues running. When we later stop or
+restart or reboot (orderly conditions, when
+`/etc/init.d/luci_statistics` is called to shut down), we do not want to
+use the saved sysupgrade backup. If we had a control path after
+`sysupgrade -b` that would allow us to remove the sysupgrade backup, this
+would be simple. But we don't!
+
+What we *can* do is arrange that a sysupgrade backup contains enough
+information to indicate if it should be restored.
+
+1. True sysupgrade is straightforward: we arrange that the backed-up
+ file list only includes the sysupgrade backup file and one twin file
+ (see below). The next starting of `/etc/init.d/luci_statistics`
+ after a sysupgrade will restore the sysupgrade backup.
+
+1. Continued system operation after `sysupgrade -b`: next time we stop the
+ service (during reboot or during other init script actions), we check
+ for a stale sysupgrade backup, and if we detect it we remove it.
+
+1. `sysupgrade -r` only unpacks the backup files, it does not erase
+ other non-backed-up files still in the overlay. Its intended use is
+ to then immediately reboot, which will run an orderly shutdown/normal
+ backup. We must ensure the orderly shutdown in this case preserves
+ the sysupgrade backup, unlike the previous case.
+
+To implement these cases, we use a pair of twinned files, only one of
+which is included in the list of files preserved by sysupgrade. If we
+detect mismatched files (or only one file present) during service
+shutdown or startup, we trust that the sysupgrade backup should be kept
+and restored. If the files are matched, that indicates that we have not
+restored files since the sysupgrade backup, and the current normal
+backup should be used instead.
+
+## During sysupgrade backup
+
+`/etc/init.d/luci_statistics sysupgrade_backup` is invoked by sysupgrade
+for true upgrade or for the `-l` or `-b` flags. We detect the list flag
+(`-l`) by checking the process environment, and if found, we only
+generate a list: we don't actually do a backup. For all cases, we edit
+the list of files listed already and remove any other mentions of
+`/etc/luci_statistics` to ensure that only the backup file and one of
+the twin files is in the backup list.
+
+## During sysupgrade
+
+During a true sysupgrade, only the sysupgrade backup file and one of the
+twin files is restored after the image reboots, so the first running of
+startup scripting will restore the sysupgrade backup. This could be at
+the time of first boot, if the image has been built to include this
+package, or it could be later when the package is downloaded, installed,
+and the service is started.
+
+## During backup (including orderly shutdown)
+
+During backup (run during shutdown), if there is a matched set of twins,
+then we know that sometime since the last service start the
+administrator ran `sysupgrade -b` and had the chance to copy the
+resulting backup. We can now erase the twins and the sysupgrade backup.
+
+If there is a mismatched set of twins, then someone restored a backup
+such as with `sysupgrade -r` and we should now be rebooting, so we
+should leave the sysupgrade files alone to be processed on service
+restart (after reboot).
+
+If someone takes a `sysupgrade -b` backup and then restores it before
+they reboot or restart statistics, the twins will still match, and we
+then don't keep the statistics from the restored backup, we instead take
+a new backup from current data and use that on reboot.
+
+## During startup
+
+If there are matched twin files (the normal case for shutdown/reboot
+without sysupgrade), then the sysupgrade backup is ignored and the
+regular backup is restored. If there are mismatched twin files, then
+the sysupgrade backup is restored.
+
+## During disorderly reboot
+
+In a system crash or other disorderly reboot, the shutdown scripts do
+not run. What remains on the system is the previous contents of
+`/etc/luci_statistics`.
+
+* If the system never started luci_statistics, or it was cleanly shut
+ down before the crash, then there is no difference in behavior from
+ normal startup: we restore either the sysupgrade backup (if
+ luci_statistics had never run) or the regular backup (if
+ luci_statistics was cleanly stopped)
+
+* If luci_statistics and collectd were running at the time of the crash,
+ there could be a regular backup and a sysupgrade backup present, plus
+ volatile data in /tmp (which are lost in the crash). The regular
+ backup would be from the most recent time the system cleanly stopped
+ luci_statistics. During the subsequent reboot/service start up:
+
+ * If there is a sysupgrade backup on disk from having run `sysupgrade
+ -b`, with both twin files matching (meaning the administrator had
+ taken a backup sometime during the life of the system, before the
+ crash), they are ignored and a regular backup (if any) is restored.
+
+ * If the sysupgrade backup has mismatched twin files or only one twin,
+ then it is used to restore state. This would be the case if a
+ sysupgrade restored configuration (`sysupgrade -r`), whether or not
+ it did an orderly shutdown/reboot, or if the file system were
+ damaged in a crash and only one of the twin files survived.
