With the current asynchronous behaviour in sending notification events
to the targets, we can't provide guaranteed delivery as the systems
might go for restarts.
For such event-driven use-cases, we can provide an option to enable
synchronous events where the APIs wait until the event is successfully
sent or persisted.
This commit adds 'MINIO_API_SYNC_EVENTS' env which when set to 'on'
will enable sending/persisting events to targets synchronously.
repeated reads on single large objects in HPC like
workloads, need the following option to disable
O_DIRECT for a more effective usage of the kernel
page-cache.
However this optional should be used in very specific
situations only, and shouldn't be enabled on all
servers.
NVMe servers benefit always from keeping O_DIRECT on.
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`
