This PR implements an object layer which
combines input erasure sets of XL layers
into a unified namespace.
This object layer extends the existing
erasure coded implementation, it is assumed
in this design that providing > 16 disks is
a static configuration as well i.e if you started
the setup with 32 disks with 4 sets 8 disks per
pack then you would need to provide 4 sets always.
Some design details and restrictions:
- Objects are distributed using consistent ordering
to a unique erasure coded layer.
- Each pack has its own dsync so locks are synchronized
properly at pack (erasure layer).
- Each pack still has a maximum of 16 disks
requirement, you can start with multiple
such sets statically.
- Static sets set of disks and cannot be
changed, there is no elastic expansion allowed.
- Static sets set of disks and cannot be
changed, there is no elastic removal allowed.
- ListObjects() across sets can be noticeably
slower since List happens on all servers,
and is merged at this sets layer.

Currently minio master requires 4 servers, we
have decided to run on a minimum of 2 servers
instead - fixes a regression from previous
releases where 3 server setups were supported.
in-memory caching cannot be cleanly implemented
without the access to GC which Go doesn't naturally
provide. At times we have seen that object caching
is more of an hindrance rather than a boon for
our use cases.
Removing it completely from our implementation
related to #5160 and #5182
With storage class support, the free and total space
reported in Minio XL startup banner should be based on
totalDisks - standardClassParityDisks, instead of totalDisks/2.
fixes#5416
After the addition of Storage Class support, readQuorum
and writeQuorum are decided on a per object basis, instead
of deployment wide static quorums.
This PR updates madmin api to remove readQuorum/writeQuorum
and add Standard storage class and reduced redundancy storage
class parity as return values. Since these parity values are
used to decide the quorum for each object.
Fixes#5378
- Add storage class metadata validation for request header
- Change storage class header values to be consistent with AWS S3
- Refactor internal method to take only the reqd argument
This adds configurable data and parity options on a per object
basis. To use variable parity
- Users can set environment variables to cofigure variable
parity
- Then add header x-amz-storage-class to putobject requests
with relevant storage class values
Fixes#4997
This patch also reverts previous changes which were
merged for migration to the newer disk format. We will
be bringing these changes in subsequent releases. But
we wish to add protection in this release such that
future release migrations are protected.
Revert "fs: Migration should handle bucketConfigs as regular objects. (#4482)"
This reverts commit 976870a391.
Revert "fs: Migrate object metadata to objects directory. (#4195)"
This reverts commit 76f4f20609.
Previous value was set to avoid large cache value build
up but we can clearly see this can cause lots of GC
pauses which can lead to significant drop in performance.
Change this value to 50% and decrease the value to 25%
once the 75% cache size is used. To have a larger
window for GC pauses.
Another change is to only allow caching if a server has
more than 24GB of RAM instead of 8GB.
This improves the startup time significantly
for clusters which have lot of buckets.
Also fixes a bug where `.minio.sys` is created
on disks which do not have `format.json`
* Implement heal format REST API handler
* Implement admin peer rpc handler to re-initialize storage
* Implement HealFormat API in pkg/madmin
* Update pkg/madmin API.md to incl. HealFormat
* Added unit tests for ReInitDisks rpc handler and HealFormatHandler
This change brings in changes at multiple places
- Reuse buffers at almost all locations ranging
from rpc, fs, xl, checksum etc.
- Change caching behavior to disable itself
under low memory conditions i.e < 8GB of RAM.
- Only objects cached are of size 1/10th the size
of the cache for example if 4GB is the cache size
the maximum object size which will be cached
is going to be 400MB. This change is an
optimization to cache more objects rather
than few larger objects.
- If object cache is enabled default GC
percent has been reduced to 20% in lieu
with newly found behavior of GC. If the cache
utilization reaches 75% of the maximum value
GC percent is reduced to 10% to make GC
more aggressive.
- Do not use *bytes.Buffer* due to its growth
requirements. For every allocation *bytes.Buffer*
allocates an additional buffer for its internal
purposes. This is undesirable for us, so
implemented a new cappedWriter which is capped to a
desired size, beyond this all writes rejected.
Possible fix for #3403.
This is needed as explained by @krisis
Lets say we have following errors.
```
[]error{nil, errFileNotFound, errDiskAccessDenied, errDiskAccesDenied}
```
Since the last two errors are filtered, the maximum is nil,
depending on map order.
Let's say we get nil from reduceErr. Clearly at this point
we don't have quorum nodes agreeing about the data and since
GetObject only requires N/2 (Read quorum) and isDiskQuorum
would have returned true. This is problematic and can lead to
undersiable consequences.
Fixes#3298
Disks when are offline for a long period of time, we should
ignore the disk after trying Login upto 5 times.
This is to reduce the network chattiness, this also reduces
the overall time spent on `net.Dial`.
Fixes#3286
Ref #3229
After review with @abperiasamy we decided to remove all the unnecessary options
- MINIO_BROWSER (Implemented as a security feature but now deemed obsolete
since even if blocking access to MINIO_BROWSER, s3 API port is open)
- MINIO_CACHE_EXPIRY (Defaults to 72h)
- MINIO_MAXCONN (No one used this option and we don't test this)
- MINIO_ENABLE_FSMETA (Enable FSMETA all the time)
Remove --ignore-disks option - this option was implemented when XL layer
would initialize the backend disks and heal them automatically to disallow
XL accidentally using the root partition itself this option was introduced.
This behavior has been changed XL no longer automatically initializes
`format.json` a HEAL is controlled activity, so ignore-disks is not
useful anymore. This change also addresses the problems of our documentation
going forward and keeps things simple. This patch brings in reduction of
options and defaulting them to a valid known inputs. This patch also
serves as a guideline of limiting many ways to do the same thing.
In a distributed setup that the server should not perform any operation
on the storage layer after it is exported via RPC. e.g, cleaning up of
temporary directories under .minio.sys/tmp may interfere with ongoing
PUT objects being served by the distributed setup.
These messages based on our prep stage during XL
and prints more informative message regarding
drive information.
This change also does a much needed refactoring.
* Return negative values of Total and Free in StorageInfo() when we fail to get disk info
* Return consistent messages in web handlers when the server is not initialized
- Instrumentation for locks.
- Detailed test coverage.
- Adding RPC control handler to fetch lock instrumentation.
- RPC control handlers suite tests with a test RPC server.
This change initializes rpc servers associated with disks that are
local. It makes object layer initialization on demand, namely on the
first request to the object layer.
Also adds lock RPC service vendorized minio/dsync
