With CoreDNS now supporting etcdv3 as the DNS backend, we
can update our federation target to etcdv3. Users will now be
able to use etcdv3 server as the federation backbone.
Minio will update bucket data to etcdv3 and CoreDNS can pick
that data up and serve it as bucket style DNS path.
This PR adds CopyObject support for objects residing in buckets
in different Minio instances (where Minio instances are part of
a federated setup).
Also, added support for multiple Minio domain IPs. This is required
for distributed deployments, where one deployment may have multiple
nodes, each with a different public IP.
As we move to multiple config backends like local disk and etcd,
config file should not be read from the disk, instead the quick
package should load and verify for duplicate entries.
This change adopts the upstream fix in this regard at
https://go-review.googlesource.com/#/c/41834/ for Minio's
purposes.
Go's current os.Stat() lacks support for lot of strange
windows files such as
- share symlinks on SMB2
- symlinks on docker nanoserver
- de-duplicated files on NTFS de-duplicated volume.
This PR attempts to incorporate the change mentioned here
https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/20100212-00/?p=14963/
The article suggests to use Windows I/O manager to
dereference the symbolic link.
