Now with the asynchronous uploaders there's no more benefit from using
more blob savers than we have CPUs. Thus use just one blob saver for
each CPU we are allowed to use.
Previously, SaveAndEncrypt would assemble blobs into packs and either
return immediately if the pack is not yet full or upload the pack file
otherwise. The upload will block the current goroutine until it
finishes.
Now, the upload is done using separate goroutines. This requires changes
to the error handling. As uploads are no longer tied to a SaveAndEncrypt
call, failed uploads are signaled using an errgroup.
To count the uploaded amount of data, the pack header overhead is no
longer returned by `packer.Finalize` but rather by
`packer.HeaderOverhead`. This helper method is necessary to continue
returning the pack header overhead directly to the responsible call to
`repository.SaveBlob`. Without the method this would not be possible,
as packs are finalized asynchronously.
When the tomb is created with a canceled context, then the workers
started via `t.Go` exist nearly immediately. Once for the first time all
started goroutines have been stopped, it is not allowed to issue further
calls to `t.Go`. This is a problem when the started goroutines exit
immediately, as for example the first goroutine might already have
stopped before starting the second one, which is not allowed as once the
first goroutines has stopped no goroutines were running.
To fix this race condition the startup and main task of the archiver now
also run within a `t.Go` function. This also allows unifying the error
handling as it is no longer necessary to distinguish between errors
returned by the workers or the saveTree processing. The tomb now just
returns the first error encountered, which should also be the most
descriptive one.
If the context was canceled then saveTree might receive a treeID or not
depending on the timing. This could cause saveTree to incorrectly return
a nil treeID as valid. Fix this always returning an error when the
context was canceled in the meantime.
A canceled background context lets the blob/tree/fileSavers exit
without reporting an error. The error handling previously replaced
a 'context canceled' error received by the main backup method with
the error reported by the savers. However, in case of a canceled
background context that error is nil, causing restic to loose the
error and save a snapshot with a nil tree.
The archiver first called the Select function for a path before checking
whether the Lstat on that path actually worked. The RejectFuncs in
exclude.go worked around this by checking whether they received a nil
os.FileInfo. Checking first is more obvious and requires less code.
Previously the directory stats were reported immediately after calling
`SaveDir`. However, as the latter method saves the tree asynchronously
the stats were still initialized to their nil value. The stats are now
reported via a callback similar to the one used for the fileSaver.
- The SaveBlob method now checks for duplicates.
- Moves handling of pending blobs to MasterIndex.
-> also cleans up pending index entries when they are saved in the index
-> when using SaveBlob no need to care about index any longer
- Always check for full index and save it when storing packs.
-> removes the need of an index uploader
-> also removes the verbose "uploaded intermediate index" messages
- The Flush method now also saves the index
- Fix race condition when checking and saving full/non-finalized indexes
internal/archiver.readdir and internal/fs.ReadDir were unused.
internal/fs.ReadDirNames and internal/archiver.readdirnames were doing
nearly the same thing, except one sorted its output and opened with
fs.O_NOFOLLOW. Both were only used in internal/archiver.
Adds a SelectByName method to the archive and scanner which only require
the filename as input, and can thus be run before calling lstat on the
file. Can speed up scanning significantly if a lot of filename excludes
are used.
This commit changes how the worker goroutines for saving e.g. blobs
interact. Before, it was possible to get stuck sending an instruction to
archive a file or dir when no worker goroutines were available any more.
This commit introduces a `done` channel for each of the worker pools,
which is set to the channel returned by `tomb.Dying()`, so it is closed
when the first worker returned an error.
This commit changes the archiver so that low-level errors saving data to
the repo are returned to the caller (instead of being handled by the
error callback function). This correctly bubbles up errors like a full
temp file system and makes restic abort early and makes all other worker
goroutines exit.
