# Introduction
|
|
|
|
This document outlines how to make hotfix binaries and containers for MinIO?. The main focus in this article is about how to backport patches to a specific branch and finally building binaries/containers.
|
|
|
|
## Pre-pre requisite
|
|
|
|
- A working knowledge of MinIO codebase and its various components.
|
|
- A working knowledge of AWS S3 API behaviors and corner cases.
|
|
|
|
## Pre-requisite for backporting any fixes
|
|
|
|
Fixes that are allowed a backport must satisfy any of the following criteria's:
|
|
|
|
- A fix must not be a feature, for example.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
commit faf013ec84051b92ae0f420a658b8d35bb7bb000

|
|
|
|
Improve performance on multiple versions (#13573)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- A fix must be a valid fix that was reproduced and seen in a customer environment, for example.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
commit 886262e58af77ebc7c836ef587c08544e9a0c271

|
|
|
|
heal legacy objects when versioning is enabled after upgrade (#13671)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- A security fix must be backported if a customer is affected by it, we have a mechanism in SUBNET to send out notifications to affected customers in such situations, this is a mandatory requirement.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
commit 99bf4d0c429f04dbd013ba98840d07b759ae1702 (tag: RELEASE.2019-06-15T23-07-18Z)

|
|
[security] Match ${aws:username} exactly instead of prefix match (#7791)
|
|
|
|
This PR fixes a security issue where an IAM user based
|
|
on his policy is granted more privileges than restricted
|
|
by the users IAM policy.
|
|
|
|
This is due to an issue of prefix based Matcher() function
|
|
which was incorrectly matching prefix based on resource
|
|
prefixes instead of exact match.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- There is always a possibility of a fix that is new, it is advised that the developer must make sure that the fix is sent upstream, reviewed and merged to the master branch.
|
|
|
|
## Creating a hotfix branch
|
|
|
|
Customers in MinIO are allowed LTS on any release they choose to standardize. Production setups seldom change and require maintenance. Hotfix branches are such maintenance branches that allow customers to operate a production cluster without drastic changes to their deployment.
|
|
|
|
## Backporting a fix
|
|
|
|
Developer is advised to clone the MinIO source and checkout the MinIO release tag customer is currently on.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
λ git checkout RELEASE.2021-04-22T15-44-28Z
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Create a branch and proceed to push the branch **upstream**
|
|
> (upstream here points to git@github.com:minio/minio.git)
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
λ git branch -m RELEASE.2021-04-22T15-44-28Z.hotfix
|
|
λ git push -u upstream RELEASE.2021-04-22T15-44-28Z.hotfix
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Pick the relevant commit-id say for example commit-id from the master branch
|
|
|
|
```
|
|

|
|
Close stream on panic (#13605)
|
|
|
|
Always close streamHTTPResponse on panic on main thread to avoid
|
|
write/flush after response handler has returned.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
λ git cherry-pick 4f3317effea38c203c358af9cb5ce3c0e4173976
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
*A self contained **patch** usually applies fine on the hotfix branch during backports as long it is self contained. There are situations however this may lead to conflicts and the patch will not cleanly apply. Conflicts might be trivial which can be resolved easily, when conflicts seem to be non-trivial or touches the part of the code-base the developer is not aware of - to get additional clarity reaching out of #hack on MinIOHQ slack channel is advised.*
|
|
|
|
Once the **patch** is successfully applied, developer must run tests to alidate the fix that was backported by running following tests, locally.
|
|
|
|
Unit tests
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
λ make test
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Verify different type of MinIO deployments work
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
λ make verify
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Verify if healing and replacing a drive works
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
λ make verify-healing
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
At this point in time the backport is ready to be submitted as a pull request to the relevant branch. A pull request is recommended to ensure [mint](http://github.com/minio/mint) tests are validated. Pull request also ensures code-reviews for the backports incase of any unforeseen regressions.

### Building a hotfix binary and container
|
|
|
|
To add a hotfix tag to the binary version and embed the relevant `commit-id` following build helpers are available
|
|
|
|
#### Builds the hotfix binary
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
λ CRED_DIR=/media/builder/minio make hotfix
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Builds the hotfix container
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
λ CRED_DIR=/media/builder/minio make docker-hotfix
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Once this has been provided to the customer relevant binary will be uploaded from our *release server* securely, directly to <https://dl.minio.io/server/minio/hotfixes/archive/>
