Default golang net.Listen only listens on the first IP when
host resolves to multiple IPs.
This change addresses a problem for example your ``/etc/hosts``
has entries as following
```
127.0.1.1 minio1
192.168.1.10 minio1
```
Trying to start minio as
```
minio server --address "minio1:9001" ~/Photos
```
Causes the minio server to be bound only to "127.0.1.1" which
is an incorrect behavior since we are generally interested in
`192.168.1.10` as well.
This patch addresses this issue if the hostname is resolvable
and gives back list of addresses associated with that hostname
we just bind on all of them as it is the expected behavior.
- The benchmark initialization function was not taking into account the
instance type (FS/XL), was using XL ObjectLayer even for FS
benchmarks.
- This was leading to incorrect benchmark results for FS related
benchmarks.
- The fix takes into account the instance type (FS/XL) and correctly
returns FS backend for FS benchmarks.
Do not attempt to fetch volume/drive information for
each i/o situation. In our case we do this in all calls
`posix.go` this in-turn created a terrible situation for
windows. This issue does not affect the i/o path on Unix
platforms since statvfs calls are in the range of micro
seconds on these platforms.
This verification is only needed during startup and we
let things fail at a later stage on windows.
- Reads and writes of uploads.json in XL now uses quorum for
newMultipart, completeMultipart and abortMultipart operations.
- Each disk's `uploads.json` file is read and updated independently for
adding or removing an upload id from the file. Quorum is used to
decide if the high-level operation actually succeeded.
- Refactor FS code to simplify the flow, and fix a bug while reading
uploads.json.
For command line arguments we are currently following
- <node-1>:/path ... <node-n>:/path
This patch changes this to
- http://<node-1>/path ... http://<node-n>/path
In FS or single-node XL mode, there is no need to save listener
configuration to persistent storage. As there is only one server, if it
is restarted, any connected listenBucketAPI clients were disconnected
and will have to reconnect - so there is nothing to actually store.
This incidentally solves #3052 by avoiding the problem.
