Subject: [PATCH proxmox-backup] bin: debug: api: fix panic on parameters given more than once
Date: Mon,  9 Nov 2026 22:59:38 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261109215938.903397-1-tobias@stuttgart.de> (raw)

Array parameters, for example 'group-filter', are set by giving the
parameter once per value. The command line parser collects the values of
a repeated parameter in an array, while the 'api' subcommands expected a
single string for each parameter and panicked with "entered unreachable
code". So array parameters could only be passed with one value.

Hand each value over to the parameter verification separately. Array
parameters now accept more than one value, and other parameters that are
given more than once get rejected as duplicate instead of causing a
panic.

Reproducer:

  proxmox-backup-debug api create /config/tape-backup-job --id two \
      --store store1 --pool pool1 --drive drive1 \
      --group-filter type:vm --group-filter group:ct/200

Tested with debug builds of current master and of 4.2.8, calling the API
in-process (PROXMOX_DEBUG_API_CODE=1): the call panics without the patch
and creates the job with both filters with it. Calls without a repeated
parameter print the same as before. The HTTP path was not tested.
