Main motivation is move towards a common backend format
for all different types of modes in MinIO, allowing for
a simpler code and predictable behavior across all features.
This PR also brings features such as versioning, replication,
transitioning to single drive setups.
startup speed-up, currently getFormatErasureInQuorum()
would spend up to 2-3secs when there are 3000+ drives
for example in a setup, simplify this implementation
to use drive counts.
This speed-up is intended for faster startup times
for almost all MinIO operations. Changes here are
- Drives are not re-read for 'format.json' on a regular
basis once read during init is remembered and refreshed
at 5 second intervals.
- Do not do O_DIRECT tests on drives with existing 'format.json'
only fresh setups need this check.
- Parallelize initializing erasureSets for multiple sets.
- Avoid re-reading format.json when migrating 'format.json'
from really old V1->V2->V3
- Keep a copy of local drives for any given server in memory
for a quick lookup.
A recent regression caused new disks not being re-formatted. In the old
code, a disk needed be 'online' to be chosen to be formatted but the
disk has to be already formatted for XL storage IsOnline() function to
return true.
It is enough to check if XL storage is nil or not if we want to avoid
formatting root disks.

This is to ensure that there are no projects
that try to import `minio/minio/pkg` into
their own repo. Any such common packages should
go to `https://github.com/minio/pkg`
* Provide information on *actively* healing, buckets healed/queued, objects healed/failed.
* Add concurrent healing of multiple sets (typically on startup).
* Add bucket level resume, so restarts will only heal non-healed buckets.
* Print summary after healing a disk is done.
This commit replaces the usage of
github.com/minio/sha256-simd with crypto/sha256
of the standard library in all non-performance
critical paths.
This is necessary for FIPS 140-2 compliance which
requires that all crypto. primitives are implemented
by a FIPS-validated module.
Go can use the Google FIPS module. The boringcrypto
branch of the Go standard library uses the BoringSSL
FIPS module to implement crypto. primitives like AES
or SHA256.
We only keep github.com/minio/sha256-simd when computing
the content-SHA256 of an object. Therefore, this commit
relies on a build tag `fips`.
When MinIO is compiled without the `fips` flag it will
use github.com/minio/sha256-simd. When MinIO is compiled
with the fips flag (go build --tags "fips") then MinIO
uses crypto/sha256 to compute the content-SHA256.
Instead of using O_SYNC, we are better off using O_DSYNC
instead since we are only ever interested in data to be
persisted to disk not the associated filesystem metadata.
For reads we ask customers to turn off noatime, but instead
we can proactively use O_NOATIME flag to avoid atime updates
upon reads.
currently we had a restriction where older setups would
need to follow previous style of "stripe" count being same
expansion, we can relax that instead newer pools can be
expanded for older setups with newer constraints of
common parity ratio.
During expansion we need to validate if
- new deployment is expanded with newer constraints
- existing deployment is expanded with older constraints
- multiple server pools rejected if they have different
deploymentID and distribution algo
Current implementation requires server pools to have
same erasure stripe sizes, to facilitate same SLA
and expectations.
This PR allows server pools to be variadic, i.e they
do not have to be same erasure stripe sizes - instead
they should have SLA for parity ratio.
If the parity ratio cannot be guaranteed by the new
server pool, the deployment is rejected i.e server
pool expansion is not allowed.
WriteAll saw 127GB allocs in a 5 minute timeframe for 4MiB buffers
used by `io.CopyBuffer` even if they are pooled.
Since all writers appear to write byte buffers, just send those
instead and write directly. The files are opened through the `os`
package so they have no special properties anyway.
This removes the alloc and copy for each operation.
REST sends content length so a precise alloc can be made.
Bonus fixes, we do not need reload format anymore
as the replaced drive is healed locally we only need
to ensure that drive heal reloads the drive properly.
We preserve the UUID of the original order, this means
that the replacement in `format.json` doesn't mean that
the drive needs to be reloaded into memory anymore.

Design: https://gist.github.com/klauspost/025c09b48ed4a1293c917cecfabdf21c
Gist of improvements:
* Cross-server caching and listing will use the same data across servers and requests.
* Lists can be arbitrarily resumed at a constant speed.
* Metadata for all files scanned is stored for streaming retrieval.
* The existing bloom filters controlled by the crawler is used for validating caches.
* Concurrent requests for the same data (or parts of it) will not spawn additional walkers.
* Listing a subdirectory of an existing recursive cache will use the cache.
* All listing operations are fully streamable so the number of objects in a bucket no
longer dictates the amount of memory.
* Listings can be handled by any server within the cluster.
* Caches are cleaned up when out of date or superseded by a more recent one.
only newly replaced drives get the new `format.json`,
this avoids disks reloading their in-memory reference
format, ensures that drives are online without
reloading the in-memory reference format.
keeping reference format in-tact means UUIDs
never change once they are formatted.
reference format should be source of truth
for inconsistent drives which reconnect,
add them back to their original position
remove automatic fix for existing offline
disk uuids
add a hint on the disk to allow for tracking fresh disk
being healed, to allow for restartable heals, and also
use this as a way to track and remove disks.
There are more pending changes where we should move
all the disk formatting logic to backend drives, this
PR doesn't deal with this refactor instead makes it
easier to track healing in the future.
Add context to all (non-trivial) calls to the storage layer.
Contexts are propagated through the REST client.
- `context.TODO()` is left in place for the places where it needs to be added to the caller.
- `endWalkCh` could probably be removed from the walkers, but no changes so far.
The "dangerous" part is that now a caller disconnecting *will* propagate down, so a
"delete" operation will now be interrupted. In some cases we might want to disconnect
this functionality so the operation completes if it has started, leaving the system in a cleaner state.
We can reduce this further in the future, but this is a good
value to keep around. With the advent of continuous healing,
we can be assured that namespace will eventually be
consistent so we are okay to avoid the necessity to
a list across all drives on all sets.
Bonus Pop()'s in parallel seem to have the potential to
wait too on large drive setups and cause more slowness
instead of gaining any performance remove it for now.
Also, implement load balanced reply for local disks,
ensuring that local disks have an affinity for
- cleanupStaleMultipartUploads()
fresh drive setups when one of the drive is
a root drive, we should ignore such a root
drive and not proceed to format.
This PR handles this properly by marking
the disks which are root disk and they are
taken offline.
healing was not working properly when drives were
replaced, due to the error check in root disk
calculation this PR fixes this behavior
This PR also adds additional fix for missing
metadata entries from .minio.sys as part of
disk healing as well.
Added code to ignore and print more context
sensitive errors for better debugging.
This PR is continuation of fix in 7b14e9b660
- Implement a new xl.json 2.0.0 format to support,
this moves the entire marshaling logic to POSIX
layer, top layer always consumes a common FileInfo
construct which simplifies the metadata reads.
- Implement list object versions
- Migrate to siphash from crchash for new deployments
for object placements.
