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* Caches are cleaned up when out of date or superseded by a more recent one.
`mc admin info` on busy setups will not move HDD
heads unnecessarily for repeated calls, provides
a better responsiveness for the call overall.
Bonus change allow listTolerancePerSet be N-1
for good entries, to avoid skipping entries
for some reason one of the disk went offline.
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()
- 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
