Existing:
```go
type xlMetaV2 struct {
Versions []xlMetaV2Version `json:"Versions" msg:"Versions"`
}
```
Serialized as regular MessagePack.
```go
//msgp:tuple xlMetaV2VersionHeader
type xlMetaV2VersionHeader struct {
VersionID [16]byte
ModTime int64
Type VersionType
Flags xlFlags
}
```
Serialize as streaming MessagePack, format:
```
int(headerVersion)
int(xlmetaVersion)
int(nVersions)
for each version {
binary blob, xlMetaV2VersionHeader, serialized
binary blob, xlMetaV2Version, serialized.
}
```
xlMetaV2VersionHeader is <= 30 bytes serialized. Deserialized struct
can easily be reused and does not contain pointers, so efficient as a
slice (single allocation)
This allows quickly parsing everything as slices of bytes (no copy).
Versions are always *saved* sorted by modTime, newest *first*.
No more need to sort on load.
* Allows checking if a version exists.
* Allows reading single version without unmarshal all.
* Allows reading latest version of type without unmarshal all.
* Allows reading latest version without unmarshal of all.
* Allows checking if the latest is deleteMarker by reading first entry.
* Allows adding/updating/deleting a version with only header deserialization.
* Reduces allocations on conversion to FileInfo(s).
With this change, MinIO's ILM supports transitioning objects to a remote tier.
This change includes support for Azure Blob Storage, AWS S3 compatible object
storage incl. MinIO and Google Cloud Storage as remote tier storage backends.
Some new additions include:
- Admin APIs remote tier configuration management
- Simple journal to track remote objects to be 'collected'
This is used by object API handlers which 'mutate' object versions by
overwriting/replacing content (Put/CopyObject) or removing the version
itself (e.g DeleteObjectVersion).
- Rework of previous ILM transition to fit the new model
In the new model, a storage class (a.k.a remote tier) is defined by the
'remote' object storage type (one of s3, azure, GCS), bucket name and a
prefix.
* Fixed bugs, review comments, and more unit-tests
- Leverage inline small object feature
- Migrate legacy objects to the latest object format before transitioning
- Fix restore to particular version if specified
- Extend SharedDataDirCount to handle transitioned and restored objects
- Restore-object should accept version-id for version-suspended bucket (#12091)
- Check if remote tier creds have sufficient permissions
- Bonus minor fixes to existing error messages

- 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.
Fixes#2111
