* cronner: run jobs triggered by remotes becoming connected (untested)Gravatar Joey Hess2013-10-13

* add remote fsck interfaceGravatar Joey Hess2013-10-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently only implemented for local git remotes. May try to add support to git-annex-shell for ssh remotes later. Could concevably also be supported by some special remote, although that seems unlikely. Cronner user this when available, and when not falls back to fsck --fast --from remote git annex fsck --from does not itself use this interface. To do so, I would need to pass --fast and all other options that influence fsck on to the git annex fsck that it runs inside the remote. And that seems like a lot of work for a result that would be no better than cd remote; git annex fsck This may need to be revisited if git-annex-shell gets support, since it may be the case that the user cannot ssh to the server to run git-annex fsck there, but can run git-annex-shell there.

* cronner builds, should work (untested)Gravatar Joey Hess2013-10-08
| | | | | | | I probably need to improve handling of the PleaseTerminate exception to kill the fsck process. Also, if fsck finds bad files, something needs to requeue downloads of them. Otherwise, this should work, but is probably quite buggy since I have only tested the pure code over the past 2 days.

* assistant: Detect stale git lock files at startup time, and remove them.Gravatar Joey Hess2013-10-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Extends the index.lock handling to other git lock files. I surveyed all lock files used by git, and found more than I expected. All are handled the same in git; it leaves them open while doing the operation, possibly writing the new file content to the lock file, and then closes them when done. The gc.pid file is excluded because it won't affect the normal operation of the assistant, and waiting for a gc to finish on startup wouldn't be good. All threads except the webapp thread wait on the new startup sanity checker thread to complete, so they won't try to do things with git that fail due to stale lock files. The webapp thread mostly avoids doing that kind of thing itself. A few configurators might fail on lock files, but only if the user is explicitly trying to run them. The webapp needs to start immediately when the user has opened it, even if there are stale lock files. Arranging for the threads to wait on the startup sanity checker was a bit of a bear. Have to get all the NotificationHandles set up before the startup sanity checker runs, or they won't see its signal. Perhaps the NotificationBroadcaster is not the best interface to have used for this. Oh well, it works. This commit was sponsored by Michael Jakl

* assistant: Clear the list of failed transfers when doing a full transfer ↵Gravatar Joey Hess2013-09-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | scan. This prevents repeated retries to download files that are not available, or are not referenced by the current git tree. This is motivated by a user report that the assistant was repeatedly retrying transfers of files that had been deleted (in direct mode, so removing the only copy). Note that the glacier code retries failed transfers after a while to retry downloads that have aged long enough to be available. This is ok; if we're doing a full transfer scan we'll retry on every file that is still in the git tree. Also note that this makes the assistant less likely to get every file referenced by old revs of the git tree. Not something the assistant tries to ensure anyway, so I feel this is acceptable.
* Support hot-swapping of removable drives containing gcrypt repositories.Gravatar Joey Hess2013-09-12
| | | | | | | | | | | To support this, a core.gcrypt-id is stored by git-annex inside the git config of a local gcrypt repository, when setting it up. That is compared with the remote's cached gcrypt-id. When different, a drive has been changed. git-annex then looks up the remote config for the uuid mapped from the core.gcrypt-id, and tweaks the configuration appropriately. When there is no known config for the uuid, it will refuse to use the remote.

* gitignore support for the assistant and watcherGravatar Joey Hess2013-08-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Requires git 1.8.4 or newer. When it's installed, a background git check-ignore process is run, and used to efficiently check ignores whenever a new file is added. Thanks to Adam Spiers, for getting the necessary support into git for this. A complication is what to do about files that are gitignored but have been checked into git anyway. git commands assume the ignore has been overridden in this case, and not need any more overriding to commit a changed version. However, for the assistant to do the same, it would have to run git ls-files to check if the ignored file is in git. This is somewhat expensive. Or it could use the running git-cat-file process to query the file that way, but that requires transferring the whole file content over a pipe, so it can be quite expensive too, for files that are not git-annex symlinks. Now imagine if the user knows that a file or directory tree will be getting frequent changes, and doesn't want the assistant to sync it, so gitignores it. The assistant could overload the system with repeated ls-files checks! So, I've decided that the assistant will not automatically commit changes to files that are gitignored. This is a tradeoff. Hopefully it won't be a problem to adjust .gitignore settings to not ignore files you want the assistant to autocommit, or to manually git annex add files that are listed in .gitignore. (This could be revisited if git-annex gets access to an interface to check the content of the index w/o forking a git command. This could be libgit2, or perhaps a separate git cat-file --batch-check process, so it wouldn't need to ship over the whole file content.) This commit was sponsored by Francois Marier. Thanks!

* assistant: Fix bug that caused it to stall when adding a very large number ↵Gravatar Joey Hess2013-07-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | of files at once (around 5 thousand). This bug was introduced in 74c30fc1a6e88d926d07e12f4e7ffc7d897bf9f6, which improved handling of adding very large numbers of files by ensuring that a minimum number of max size commits (5000 files each) were done. I accidentially made it wait for another change to appear after such a max size commit, even if a lot of queued changes were already accumulated. That resulted in a stall when it got to the end. Now fixed to not wait any longer than necessary to ensure the watcher has had time to wake back up after the max size commit. This commit was sponsored by Michael Linksvayer. Thanks!
* assistant: Fix deadlock that could occur when adding a lot of files at once ↵Gravatar Joey Hess2013-07-26
| | | | | | | | | | in indirect mode. This is a laziness problem. Despite the bang pattern on newfiles, the list was not being fully evaluated before cleanup was called. Moving cleanup out to after the list is actually used fixes this. More evidence that I should be using ResourceT or pipes, if any was needed.
* assistant: Fix NetWatcher to not sync with remotes that have ↵Gravatar Joey Hess2013-07-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | remote.<name>.annex-sync set to false. This affected both the hourly NetWatcherFallback thread and the syncing when network connection is detected. It was a reversion of sorts, introduced in 8655ea7f8e853b7de4defbca2655b741362ecd21, when annex-ignore was changed to not control git syncing. I forgot to make it check annex-sync at that point.

| | | | | | | This is a compromise. I would like to nice every thread except for the webapp thread, but it's not practical to do so. That would need every thread to run as a bound thread, which could add significant overhead. And any forkIO would escape the nice level.

* add two long-running XMPP push threads, no more inversion of controlGravatar Joey Hess2013-05-22
| | | | | | | | | I hope this will be easier to reason about, and less buggy. It was certianly easier to write! An immediate benefit is that with a traversable queue of push requests to select from, the threads can be a lot fairer about choosing which client to service next.
* per-client inboxes for push messagesGravatar Joey Hess2013-05-21
| | | | | | | | | | | This will avoid losing any messages received from 1 client when a push involving another client is running. Additionally, the handling of push initiation is improved, it's no longer allowed to run multiples of the same type of push to the same client. Still stalls sometimes :(
* XMPP: Be better at responding to CanPush messages when busy with something else.Gravatar Joey Hess2013-05-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Observed: With 2 xmpp clients, one would sometimes stop responding to CanPush messages. Often it was in the middle of a receive-pack of its own (or was waiting for a failed one to time out). Now these are always immediately responded to, which is fine; the point of CanPush is to find out if there's another client out there that's interested in our push. Also, in queueNetPushMessage, queue push initiation messages when we're already running the side of the push they would initiate. Before, these messages were sent into the netMessagesPush channel, which was wrong. The xmpp send-pack and receive-pack code discarded such messages. This still doesn't make XMPP push 100% robust. In testing, I am seeing it sometimes try to run two send-packs, or two receive-packs at once to the same client (probably because the client sent two requests). Also, I'm seeing rather a lot of cases where it stalls out until it runs into the 120 second timeout and cancels a push. And finally, there seems to be a bug in runPush. I have logs that show it running its setup action, but never its cleanup action. How is this possible given its use of E.bracket? Either some exception is finding its way through, or the action somehow stalls forever. When this happens, one of the 2 clients stops syncing.
* test suite passes in direct modeGravatar Joey Hess2013-05-17
| | | | | | | | | | | This fixes a bug with git annex add in direct mode. If some files already existed in the tree pointing at the same key as a file that was just added, and their content was not present, add neglected to copy the content to those files. I also changed the behavior of moveAnnex slightly: When content is moved into the annex in direct mode, it does not overwrite any content already present in direct mode files. That content may be modified after all.

| | | | | | | Unless the request is for repo uuid we already know. This way, if A1 pairs with friend B1, and B1 pairs with device B2, then B1 can request A1 pair with it and no confirmation is needed. (In future, may want to try to do that automatically, to make a more robust network.)
* assistant: Fix bug that could cause incoming pushes to not get merged into ↵Gravatar Joey Hess2013-04-30
| | | | | | | | | | the local tree. Observed that the pushed refs were received, but not merged into master. The merger never saw an add event for these refs. Either git is not writing to a new file and renaming it into place, or the inotify code didn't notice that. Changed it to also watch for modify events and that seems to have fixed it!

* get rid of need to run pre-commit hook when assistant commits in direct modeGravatar Joey Hess2013-04-24
| | | | | | | | | | | That hook updates associated file bookkeeping info for direct mode. But, everything already called addAssociatedFile when adding/changing a file. It only needed to also call removeAssociatedFile when deleting a file, or a directory. This should make bulk adds faster, by some possibly significant amount. Bulk removals may be a little slower, since it has to use catKeyFile now on each removed file, but will still be faster than adds.

* batch commit every 5 thousand changes, not 10 thousandGravatar Joey Hess2013-04-24
| | | | | | | | | | | There's a tradeoff between making less frequent commits, and needing to use memory to store all the changes that are coming in. At 10 thousand, it needs 150 mb of memory. 5 thousand drops that down to 90 mb or so. This also turns out to have significant imact on total run time. I benchmarked 10k changes taking 27 minutes. But two 5k batches took only 21 minutes.
