- ReadVersion
- ReadFile
- ReadXL
Further changes include to
- Compact internode resource RPC paths
- Compact internode query params
To optimize on parsing by gorilla/mux as the
length of this string increases latency in
gorilla/mux - reduce to a meaningful string.
the main reason is to let Go net/http perform necessary
book keeping properly, and in essential from consistency
point of view its GETs all the way.
Deprecate sendFile() as its buggy inside Go runtime.
allow non-inlined on disk to be inlined via
an unversioned ReadVersion() call, we only
need ReadXL() to resolve objects with multiple
versions only.
The choice of this block makes it to be dynamic
and chosen by the user via `mc admin config set`
Other bonus things
- Start measuring internode TTFB performance.
- Set TCP_NODELAY, TCP_CORK for low latency
due to a historic bug in CopyObject() where
an inlined object loses its metadata, the
check causes an incorrect fallback verifying
data-dir.
CopyObject() bug was fixed in ffa91f9794 however
the occurrence of this problem is historic, so
the aforementioned check is stretching too much.
Bonus: simplify fileInfoRaw() to read xl.json as well,
also recreate buckets properly.
This change uses the updated ldap library in minio/pkg (bumped
up to v3). A new config parameter is added for LDAP configuration to
specify extra user attributes to load from the LDAP server and to store
them as additional claims for the user.
A test is added in sts_handlers.go that shows how to access the LDAP
attributes as a claim.
This is in preparation for adding SSH pubkey authentication to MinIO's SFTP
integration.
add deadlines that can be dynamically changed via
the drive max timeout values.
Bonus: optimize "file not found" case and hung drives/network - circuit break the check and return right
away instead of waiting.
canceled callers might linger around longer,
can potentially overwhelm the system. Instead
provider a caller context and canceled callers
don't hold on to them.
Bonus: we have no reason to cache errors, we should
never cache errors otherwise we can potentially have
quorum errors creeping in unexpectedly. We should
let the cache when invalidating hit the actual resources
instead.
- handle errFileCorrupt properly
- micro-optimization of sending done() response quicker
to close the goroutine.
- fix logger.Event() usage in a couple of places
- handle the rest of the client to return a different error other than
lastErr() when the client is closed.
instead upon any error in renameData(), we still
preserve the existing dataDir in some form for
recoverability in strange situations such as out
of disk space type errors.
Bonus: avoid running list and heal() instead allow
versions disparity to return the actual versions,
uuid to heal. Currently limit this to 100 versions
and lesser disparate objects.
an undo now reverts back the xl.meta from xl.meta.bkp
during overwrites on such flaky setups.
Bonus: Save N depth syscalls via skipping the parents
upon overwrites and versioned updates.
Flaky setup examples are stretch clusters with regular
packet drops etc, we need to add some defensive code
around to avoid dangling objects.
since mid 2018 we do not have any deployments
without deployment-id, it is time to put this
code to rest, this PR removes this old code as
its no longer valuable.
on setups with 1000's of drives these are all
quite expensive operations.
the disk location never changes in the lifetime of a
MinIO cluster, even if it did validate this close to the
disk instead at the higher layer.
Return appropriate errors indicating an invalid drive, so
that the drive is not recognized as part of a valid
drive.
Create new code paths for multiple subsystems in the code. This will
make maintaing this easier later.
Also introduce bugLogIf() for errors that should not happen in the first
place.
Use `ODirectPoolSmall` buffers for inline data in PutObject.
Add a separate call for inline data that will fetch a buffer for the inline data before unmarshal.
we must attempt to convert all errors at storage-rest-client
into StorageErr() regardless of what functionality is being
called in, this PR fixes this for multiple callers including
some internally used functions.
in k8s things really do come online very asynchronously,
we need to use implementation that allows this randomness.
To facilitate this move WriteAll() as part of the
websocket layer instead.
Bonus: avoid instances of dnscache usage on k8s
* Remove lock for cached operations.
* Rename "Relax" to `ReturnLastGood`.
* Add `CacheError` to allow caching values even on errors.
* Add NoWait that will return current value with async fetching if within 2xTTL.
* Make benchmark somewhat representative.
```
Before: BenchmarkCache-12 16408370 63.12 ns/op 0 B/op
After: BenchmarkCache-12 428282187 2.789 ns/op 0 B/op
```
* Remove `storageRESTClient.scanning`. Nonsensical - RPC clients will not have any idea about scanning.
* Always fetch remote diskinfo metrics and cache them. Seems most calls are requesting metrics.
* Do async fetching of usage caches.
- bucket metadata does not need to look for legacy things
anymore if b.Created is non-zero
- stagger bucket metadata loads across lots of nodes to
avoid the current thundering herd problem.
- Remove deadlines for RenameData, RenameFile - these
calls should not ever be timed out and should wait
until completion or wait for client timeout. Do not
choose timeouts for applications during the WRITE phase.
- increase R/W buffer size, increase maxMergeMessages to 30
Allow internal types to support a `Recycler` interface, which will allow for sharing of common types across handlers.
This means that all `grid.MSS` (and similar) objects are shared across in a common pool instead of a per-handler pool.
Add internal request reuse of internal types. Add for safe (pointerless) types explicitly.
Only log params for internal types. Doing Sprint(obj) is just a bit too messy.
Each Put, List, Multipart operations heavily rely on making
GetBucketInfo() call to verify if bucket exists or not on
a regular basis. This has a large performance cost when there
are tons of servers involved.
We did optimize this part by vectorizing the bucket calls,
however its not enough, beyond 100 nodes and this becomes
fairly visible in terms of performance.
- Move RenameFile to websockets
- Move ReadAll that is primarily is used
for reading 'format.json' to to websockets
- Optimize DiskInfo calls, and provide a way
to make a NoOp DiskInfo call.
NOTE: This feature is not retro-active; it will not cater to previous transactions
on existing setups.
To enable this feature, please set ` _MINIO_DRIVE_QUORUM=on` environment
variable as part of systemd service or k8s configmap.
Once this has been enabled, you need to also set `list_quorum`.
```
~ mc admin config set alias/ api list_quorum=auto`
```
A new debugging tool is available to check for any missing counters.
Bonus: allow replication to attempt Deletes/Puts when
the remote returns quorum errors of some kind, this is
to ensure that MinIO can rewrite the namespace with the
latest version that exists on the source.
This PR adds a WebSocket grid feature that allows servers to communicate via
a single two-way connection.
There are two request types:
* Single requests, which are `[]byte => ([]byte, error)`. This is for efficient small
roundtrips with small payloads.
* Streaming requests which are `[]byte, chan []byte => chan []byte (and error)`,
which allows for different combinations of full two-way streams with an initial payload.
Only a single stream is created between two machines - and there is, as such, no
server/client relation since both sides can initiate and handle requests. Which server
initiates the request is decided deterministically on the server names.
Requests are made through a mux client and server, which handles message
passing, congestion, cancelation, timeouts, etc.
If a connection is lost, all requests are canceled, and the calling server will try
to reconnect. Registered handlers can operate directly on byte
slices or use a higher-level generics abstraction.
There is no versioning of handlers/clients, and incompatible changes should
be handled by adding new handlers.
The request path can be changed to a new one for any protocol changes.
First, all servers create a "Manager." The manager must know its address
as well as all remote addresses. This will manage all connections.
To get a connection to any remote, ask the manager to provide it given
the remote address using.
```
func (m *Manager) Connection(host string) *Connection
```
All serverside handlers must also be registered on the manager. This will
make sure that all incoming requests are served. The number of in-flight
requests and responses must also be given for streaming requests.
The "Connection" returned manages the mux-clients. Requests issued
to the connection will be sent to the remote.
* `func (c *Connection) Request(ctx context.Context, h HandlerID, req []byte) ([]byte, error)`
performs a single request and returns the result. Any deadline provided on the request is
forwarded to the server, and canceling the context will make the function return at once.
* `func (c *Connection) NewStream(ctx context.Context, h HandlerID, payload []byte) (st *Stream, err error)`
will initiate a remote call and send the initial payload.
```Go
// A Stream is a two-way stream.
// All responses *must* be read by the caller.
// If the call is canceled through the context,
//The appropriate error will be returned.
type Stream struct {
// Responses from the remote server.
// Channel will be closed after an error or when the remote closes.
// All responses *must* be read by the caller until either an error is returned or the channel is closed.
// Canceling the context will cause the context cancellation error to be returned.
Responses <-chan Response
// Requests sent to the server.
// If the handler is defined with 0 incoming capacity this will be nil.
// Channel *must* be closed to signal the end of the stream.
// If the request context is canceled, the stream will no longer process requests.
Requests chan<- []byte
}
type Response struct {
Msg []byte
Err error
}
```
There are generic versions of the server/client handlers that allow the use of type
safe implementations for data types that support msgpack marshal/unmarshal.
replace io.Discard usage to fix NUMA copy() latencies
On NUMA systems copying from 8K buffer allocated via
io.Discard leads to large latency build-up for every
```
copy(new8kbuf, largebuf)
```
can in-cur upto 1ms worth of latencies on NUMA systems
due to memory sharding across NUMA nodes.
.metacache objects are transient in nature, and are better left to
use page-cache effectively to avoid using more IOPs on the disks.
this allows for incoming calls to be not taxed heavily due to
multiple large batch listings.
health checks were missing for drives replaced since
- HealFormat() would replace the drives without a health check
- disconnected drives when they reconnect via connectEndpoint()
the loop also loses health checks for local disks and merges
these into a single code.
- other than this separate cleanUp, health check variables to avoid
overloading them with similar requirements.
- also ensure that we compete via context selector for disk monitoring
such that the canceled disks don't linger around longer waiting for
the ticker to trigger.
- allow disabling active monitoring.
* Reduce allocations
* Add stringsHasPrefixFold which can compare string prefixes, while ignoring case and not allocating.
* Reuse all msgp.Readers
* Reuse metadata buffers when not reading data.
* Make type safe. Make buffer 4K instead of 8.
* Unslice
PUT calls cannot afford to have large latency build-ups due
to contentious usage.json, or worse letting them fail with
some unexpected error, this can happen when this file is
concurrently being updated via scanner or it is being
healed during a disk replacement heal.
However, these are fairly quick in theory, stressed clusters
can quickly show visible latency this can add up leading to
invalid errors returned during PUT.
It is perhaps okay for us to relax this error return requirement
instead, make sure that we log that we are proceeding to take in
the requests while the quota is using an older value for the quota
enforcement. These things will reconcile themselves eventually,
via scanner making sure to overwrite the usage.json.
Bonus: make sure that storage-rest-client sets ExpectTimeouts to
be 'true', such that DiskInfo() call with contextTimeout does
not prematurely disconnect the servers leading to a longer
healthCheck, back-off routine. This can easily pile up while also
causing active callers to disconnect, leading to quorum loss.
DiskInfo is actively used in the PUT, Multipart call path for
upgrading parity when disks are down, it in-turn shouldn't cause
more disks to go down.
