pinsvcapi: do not cache peer information here as all the needed information is
in the status objects.
This adds ipfs_addresses as a field broadcasted with the ping metrics.
This does 3 things:
- Add a NoPin option to the adder. When set to true, the adding process does not
send a pin in the end.
- When user-allocations are set and local=true happens, we do not overwrite
the allocations returned by the allocator to include the local peer
anymore, as this could alter user-allocations.
- Some code improvement (remove pointers).
This fixes#1213. It adds partial support for the Pinning Services API with some caveats:
* RequestIDs == CIDs. This is a violation of the spec, as request IDs will not be unique etc.
* Pagination, name matching, metadata matching, ordering etc. are not supported in the List endpoint.
* The List endpoint only supports status filtering and cid query parameter.
* Created time property is not supported and always set to Now()
There is more work to do here: cleanup, extract useful types etc. and TESTS.
This will facilitate building outputs for the Pinning Services API, saving a
round trip to query the cluster State, since all the needed information
already comes from the PinTracker, which has already accessed the state.
Since the pintracker already included a state attribute (Name), we are simply
going down that path.
This allows to specifically request status for several CIDs as
provided in the "cids" query parameter, instead of request status for
all CIDs.
In this case, the filter is ignored.
Fixes#1554
Fixes: peer names unset for remote peers
This adds an IPFS field to pin status information (PinInfoShort).
It has not been easy to add this, given that the IPFS ID is something that
comes from outside of cluster (unlike the peer name). After several tries I
have settled in the following things:
- Use the ping metric to send out peer names and IPFS IDs to the peers in the
cluster.
- Cache the latest known IPFS ID (if IPFS dies we should still be setting
the ID).
- Provide an RPC method for the Pintracker to obtain IPFS ID from the cache.
- Given we now know information for peernames and IPFS IDs from other peers,
we can use that information even if the requests to them error or we are not
contacting (i.e. peers allocated as remote are not queried for status). We can
use the information from the last received ping metric.
- This means we should keep metrics around even if peers go away, at least for
a while rather than deleting them as soon as we detect that they have expired.
Puting it all together we now have a system to gossip peer information around on top
of the ping metrics.
The pin objects now include an Origin field which was set to
multiaddr.Multiaddr.
This type is an interface and has no idea how to deserialize itself. As a
result, an state json export cannot be deseralized.
We had already added a wrapper Multiaddr type to handle these issues. I
believe this fix does not affect anything else other than fixing
UnmarshalJSON. PB types are deserialized by hand and it should not make a
difference.
This adds a Timestamp field to the pin objects. This allows to track when they were pinned.
This:
* Allows the pin-tracker to actually show accurate information on when the pin
entered the system for pins that are not part of ongoing operations
(currently it shows time.Now())
* Adds support for reporting timestamp on a pinning services api.
This fixes the issue about partitions not being picked based
on the amount of freespace available in them.
It additionally removes the metrics registry and carries information directly
in the metric.
Metrics have two additional fields: Weight and Partitionable.
Informers have been updated to make use of these fields. Partitions have
weights that equals to the weight of the metrics under them.
Older cluster versions will not set these fields. Partitionable is false by
default and weight has a GetWeight() function to convert value->weight when
unset. This provides backwards compatibility for the freespace metric.
This is a preparatory PR to add additional APIs (Pinning Service API) easily
to cluster.
Instead of copy-pasting most of what the REST API does, I have refactored so
that the whole configuration, routing and request-handling utilities can be
re-used.
The worst part has been to divide the test between tests that test core
(common.API) functionality and tests that test specific REST API endpoint
functionality. I could not get away without an additional common/test package
to provide functions that are used from both places. This is a side effect of
testing both http and libp2p endpoints for every request etc.
The new "metrics" allocator is about to partition metrics and distribe
allocations among the partitions.
For example: given a region, an availability zone and free space on disk, the
allocator would be able to choose allocations by distributing among regions
and availability zones as much as possible, and for those peers in the same
region/az, selecting those with most free space first.
This requires a major overhaul of the allocator component.
This commit updates the WaitFor StatusFilterParams to add a Limit field, and
reworks the waiting logic to simplify it.
The Limit parameter causes WaitFor to return successfully when N number of
peers have reached the target status, regardless of what other statuses are
(as long as they are not errors)
Other than that, the function logic should remain the same, blocking until all
statuses are the target, with a special case about target-Pinned, which causes
Remote statuses to be ignored.
The Gorilla muxer StrictSlash option uses a 301 permanent redirect, which
results in POST requests becoming GET requests in most clients. Thus we use
our own middleware that performs a 307 redirect. See issue #1415 for more
details.
The restapi component supports filters for the pinset. This was done to keep
expected output when sharding was fully supported by filtering out "internal"
pins.
However this filter requires looping on the full pinset and re-allocating and
usually does nothing. The useless copy is significant for really big pinsets.
Additionally, ipfs-cluster-ctl set the filter by default to "pins". By setting
it to "all" instead we can skip the whole filtering step and, in practice, get the
same results.
This commit modifies the pintracker StatusAll call to take a status filter.
This allows to skip a PinLs call to ipfs when checking status for items that
are queued, pinning, unpinning or in error. Those status come directly from
the operation tracker. This should result in a significant performance
increase for those calls, particularly in nodes with several hundred thousand
pins and more, where the call to IPFS is very expensive.
A new TrackerStatusUnexpectedlyUnpinned status has been introduce to
differentiate between pin errors (tracked by the operation tracker) and "lost"
items (which before were pin errors too). This new status is handled by the
Recover() operation as before.
The errors returned by the IPFS Proxy API are not understood by IPFS.
This was caused by go-ipfs-cmds setting an API error format which requires the
errors to have a type: "error" field.
This commit brings this up to speed.
This commit adds a new add option: "format".
This option specifies how IPFS Cluster is expected to build the DAG when
adding content. By default, it takes a "unixfs", which chunks and DAG-ifies as
it did before, resulting in a UnixFSv1 DAG.
Alternatively, it can be set to "car". In this case, Cluster will directly
read blocks from the CAR file and add them.
Adding CAR files or doing normal processing is independent from letting
cluster do sharding or not. If sharding is ever enabled, Cluster could
potentially shard a large CAR file among peers.
Currently, importing CAR files is limited to a single CAR file with a single
root (the one that is pinned). Future iterations may support multiple CARs
and/or multiple roots by transparently wrapping them.
