Ticket #393: 393status34.dpatch

Mon Aug  9 16:25:14 PDT 2010  Kevan Carstensen <kevan@isnotajoke.com>
  * mutable/checker.py and mutable/repair.py: Modify checker and repairer to work with MDMF
  
  The checker and repairer required minimal changes to work with the MDMF
  modifications made elsewhere. The checker duplicated a lot of the code
  that was already in the downloader, so I modified the downloader
  slightly to expose this functionality to the checker and removed the
  duplicated code. The repairer only required a minor change to deal with
  data representation.

Mon Aug  9 16:32:44 PDT 2010  Kevan Carstensen <kevan@isnotajoke.com>
  * interfaces.py: Add #993 interfaces

Mon Aug  9 16:35:35 PDT 2010  Kevan Carstensen <kevan@isnotajoke.com>
  * frontends/sftpd.py: Modify the sftp frontend to work with the MDMF changes

Mon Aug  9 16:40:04 PDT 2010  Kevan Carstensen <kevan@isnotajoke.com>
  * mutable/layout.py and interfaces.py: add MDMF writer and reader
  
  The MDMF writer is responsible for keeping state as plaintext is
  gradually processed into share data by the upload process. When the
  upload finishes, it will write all of its share data to a remote server,
  reporting its status back to the publisher.
  
  The MDMF reader is responsible for abstracting an MDMF file as it sits
  on the grid from the downloader; specifically, by receiving and
  responding to requests for arbitrary data within the MDMF file.
  
  The interfaces.py file has also been modified to contain an interface
  for the writer.

  * immutable/filenode.py: Make the immutable file node implement the same interfaces as the mutable one

Mon Aug  9 17:06:33 PDT 2010  Kevan Carstensen <kevan@isnotajoke.com>
  * immutable/literal.py: implement the same interfaces as other filenodes

Wed Aug 11 16:31:01 PDT 2010  Kevan Carstensen <kevan@isnotajoke.com>
  * mutable/publish.py: Modify the publish process to support MDMF
  
  The inner workings of the publishing process needed to be reworked to a
  large extend to cope with segmented mutable files, and to cope with
  partial-file updates of mutable files. This patch does that. It also
  introduces wrappers for uploadable data, allowing the use of
  filehandle-like objects as data sources, in addition to strings. This
  reduces memory inefficiency when dealing with large files through the
  webapi, and clarifies update code there.

Wed Aug 11 16:31:25 PDT 2010  Kevan Carstensen <kevan@isnotajoke.com>
  * mutable/retrieve.py: Modify the retrieval process to support MDMF
  
  The logic behind a mutable file download had to be adapted to work with
  segmented mutable files; this patch performs those adaptations. It also
  exposes some decoding and decrypting functionality to make partial-file
  updates a little easier, and supports efficient random-access downloads
  of parts of an MDMF file.

Wed Aug 11 16:33:09 PDT 2010  Kevan Carstensen <kevan@isnotajoke.com>
  * mutable/servermap.py: Alter the servermap updater to work with MDMF files
  
  These modifications were basically all to the end of having the
  servermap updater use the unified MDMF + SDMF read interface whenever
  possible -- this reduces the complexity of the code, making it easier to
  read and maintain. To do this, I needed to modify the process of
  updating the servermap a little bit.
  
  To support partial-file updates, I also modified the servermap updater
  to fetch the block hash trees and certain segments of files while it
  performed a servermap update (this can be done without adding any new
  roundtrips because of batch-read functionality that the read proxy has).

  * scripts: tell 'tahoe put' about MDMF

Sat Aug 14 01:10:12 PDT 2010  Kevan Carstensen <kevan@isnotajoke.com>
  * web: Alter the webapi to get along with and take advantage of the MDMF changes
  
  The main benefit that the webapi gets from MDMF, at least initially, is
  the ability to do a streaming download of an MDMF mutable file. It also
  exposes a way (through the PUT verb) to append to or otherwise modify
  (in-place) an MDMF mutable file.

Sat Aug 14 15:56:44 PDT 2010  Kevan Carstensen <kevan@isnotajoke.com>
  * docs: update docs to mention MDMF

Sat Aug 14 15:57:11 PDT 2010  Kevan Carstensen <kevan@isnotajoke.com>
  * client.py: learn how to create different kinds of mutable files

Sat Aug 14 15:57:38 PDT 2010  Kevan Carstensen <kevan@isnotajoke.com>
  * mutable/filenode.py: add versions and partial-file updates to the mutable file node
  
  One of the goals of MDMF as a GSoC project is to lay the groundwork for
  LDMF, a format that will allow Tahoe-LAFS to deal with and encourage
  multiple versions of a single cap on the grid. In line with this, there
  is a now a distinction between an overriding mutable file (which can be
  thought to correspond to the cap/unique identifier for that mutable
  file) and versions of the mutable file (which we can download, update,
  and so on). All download, upload, and modification operations end up
  happening on a particular version of a mutable file, but there are
  shortcut methods on the object representing the overriding mutable file
  that perform these operations on the best version of the mutable file
  (which is what code should be doing until we have LDMF and better
  support for other paradigms).
  
  Another goal of MDMF was to take advantage of segmentation to give
  callers more efficient partial file updates or appends. This patch
  implements methods that do that, too.
  

Sat Aug 14 15:58:29 PDT 2010  Kevan Carstensen <kevan@isnotajoke.com>
  * nodemaker.py: Make nodemaker expose a way to create MDMF files

Sat Aug 14 15:58:48 PDT 2010  Kevan Carstensen <kevan@isnotajoke.com>
  * tests:
  
      - A lot of existing tests relied on aspects of the mutable file
        implementation that were changed. This patch updates those tests
        to work with the changes.
      - This patch also adds tests for new features.

New patches:

 The MDMF writer is responsible for keeping state as plaintext is
 gradually processed into share data by the upload process. When the
 upload finishes, it will write all of its share data to a remote server,
 reporting its status back to the publisher.
 
 The MDMF reader is responsible for abstracting an MDMF file as it sits
 on the grid from the downloader; specifically, by receiving and
 responding to requests for arbitrary data within the MDMF file.
 
 The interfaces.py file has also been modified to contain an interface
 for the writer.

+#       will turn it into 00 00 00 01.
+#    Q: The sequence number; this is sort of like a revision history for
+#       mutable files; they start at 1 and increase as they are changed after
+#       being uploaded. Stored as an unsigned long long, which is 8 bytes in
+#       length.
+#  32s: The root hash of the share hash tree. We use sha-256d, so we use 32 
+#       characters = 32 bytes to store the value.
+#  16s: The salt for the readkey. This is a 16-byte random value, stored as
+#       16 characters.
+#
+#  SIGNED_PREFIX additions, things that are covered by the signature:
+#    B: The "k" encoding parameter. We store this as an 8-bit character, 
+#       which is convenient because our erasure coding scheme cannot 
+#       encode if you ask for more than 255 pieces.
+#    B: The "N" encoding parameter. Stored as an 8-bit character for the 
+#       same reasons as above.
+#    Q: The segment size of the uploaded file. This will essentially be the
+#       length of the file in SDMF. An unsigned long long, so we can store 
+#       files of quite large size.
+#    Q: The data length of the uploaded file. Modulo padding, this will be
+#       the same of the data length field. Like the data length field, it is
+#       an unsigned long long and can be quite large.
+#
+#   HEADER additions:
+#     L: The offset of the signature of this. An unsigned long.
+#     L: The offset of the share hash chain. An unsigned long.
+#     L: The offset of the block hash tree. An unsigned long.
+#     L: The offset of the share data. An unsigned long.
+#     Q: The offset of the encrypted private key. An unsigned long long, to
+#        account for the possibility of a lot of share data.
+#     Q: The offset of the EOF. An unsigned long long, to account for the
+#        possibility of a lot of share data.
+# 
+#  After all of these, we have the following:
+#    - The verification key: Occupies the space between the end of the header
+#      and the start of the signature (i.e.: data[HEADER_LENGTH:o['signature']].
+#    - The signature, which goes from the signature offset to the share hash
+#      chain offset.
+#    - The share hash chain, which goes from the share hash chain offset to
+#      the block hash tree offset.
+#    - The share data, which goes from the share data offset to the encrypted
+#      private key offset.
+#    - The encrypted private key offset, which goes until the end of the file.
+# 
+#  The block hash tree in this encoding has only one share, so the offset of

+    #   4: At the same time, we're in a position to upload the salt hash
+    #      tree. This is a Merkle tree over all of the salts. We use a
+    #      Merkle tree so that we can validate each block,salt pair as
+    #      we download them later. We do this using 
+    #
+    #        put_salthashes(salt_hash_tree)
+    #
+    #      When you do this, I automatically put the root of the tree
+    #      (the hash at index 0 of the list) in its appropriate slot in
+    #      the signed prefix of the share.
+    #
+    #   5: We're now in a position to upload the share hash chain for
+    #      a share. Do that with something like:
+    #      
+    #        put_sharehashes(share_hash_chain) 
+    #
+    #      share_hash_chain should be a dictionary mapping shnums to 
+    #      32-byte hashes -- the wrapper handles serialization.
+    #      We'll know where to put the signature at this point, also.
+    #      The root of this tree will be put explicitly in the next
+    #      step.
+    # 
+    #      TODO: Why? Why not just include it in the tree here?
+    #
+    #   6: Before putting the signature, we must first put the
+    #      root_hash. Do this with:
+    # 
+    #        put_root_hash(root_hash).
+    #      
+    #      In terms of knowing where to put this value, it was always
+    #      possible to place it, but it makes sense semantically to
+    #      place it after the share hash tree, so that's why you do it
+    #      in this order.
+    #
+    #   6: With the root hash put, we can now sign the header. Use:
+    #
+    #        get_signable()
+    #
+    #      to get the part of the header that you want to sign, and use:
+    #       
+    #        put_signature(signature)
+    #
+    #      to write your signature to the remote server.
+    #
+    #   6: Add the verification key, and finish. Do:
+    #
+    #        put_verification_key(key) 
+    #
+    #      and 
+    #
+    #        finish_publish()
+    #
+    # Checkstring management:
+    # 
+    # To write to a mutable slot, we have to provide test vectors to ensure
+    # that we are writing to the same data that we think we are. These
+    # vectors allow us to detect uncoordinated writes; that is, writes
+    # where both we and some other shareholder are writing to the
+    # mutable slot, and to report those back to the parts of the program
+    # doing the writing. 
+    #
+    # With SDMF, this was easy -- all of the share data was written in
+    # one go, so it was easy to detect uncoordinated writes, and we only
+    # had to do it once. With MDMF, not all of the file is written at
+    # once.
+    #
+    # If a share is new, we write out as much of the header as we can
+    # before writing out anything else. This gives other writers a
+    # canary that they can use to detect uncoordinated writes, and, if
+    # they do the same thing, gives us the same canary. We them update
+    # the share. We won't be able to write out two fields of the header
+    # -- the share tree hash and the salt hash -- until we finish
+    # writing out the share. We only require the writer to provide the
+    # initial checkstring, and keep track of what it should be after
+    # updates ourselves.
+    #
+    # If we haven't written anything yet, then on the first write (which
+    # will probably be a block + salt of a share), we'll also write out
+    # the header. On subsequent passes, we'll expect to see the header.
+    # This changes in two places:
+    #
+    #   - When we write out the salt hash
+    #   - When we write out the root of the share hash tree
+    #
+    # since these values will change the header. It is possible that we 
+    # can just make those be written in one operation to minimize
+    # disruption.

[mutable/publish.py: Modify the publish process to support MDMF

 The inner workings of the publishing process needed to be reworked to a
 large extend to cope with segmented mutable files, and to cope with
 partial-file updates of mutable files. This patch does that. It also
 introduces wrappers for uploadable data, allowing the use of
 filehandle-like objects as data sources, in addition to strings. This
 reduces memory inefficiency when dealing with large files through the
 webapi, and clarifies update code there.

[mutable/retrieve.py: Modify the retrieval process to support MDMF
Kevan Carstensen <kevan@isnotajoke.com>**20100811233125
 Ignore-this: bb5f95e1d0e8bb734d43d5ed1550ce
 
 The logic behind a mutable file download had to be adapted to work with
 segmented mutable files; this patch performs those adaptations. It also
 exposes some decoding and decrypting functionality to make partial-file
 updates a little easier, and supports efficient random-access downloads
 of parts of an MDMF file.

[mutable/servermap.py: Alter the servermap updater to work with MDMF files
Kevan Carstensen <kevan@isnotajoke.com>**20100811233309
 Ignore-this: 5d2c922283c12cad93a5346e978cd691
 
 These modifications were basically all to the end of having the
 servermap updater use the unified MDMF + SDMF read interface whenever
 possible -- this reduces the complexity of the code, making it easier to
 read and maintain. To do this, I needed to modify the process of
 updating the servermap a little bit.
 
 To support partial-file updates, I also modified the servermap updater
 to fetch the block hash trees and certain segments of files while it
 performed a servermap update (this can be done without adding any new
 roundtrips because of batch-read functionality that the read proxy has).

[mutable/filenode.py: add versions and partial-file updates to the mutable file node
Kevan Carstensen <kevan@isnotajoke.com>**20100814225738
 Ignore-this: 3f33454d119b4b82de54063bc57205e3
 
 One of the goals of MDMF as a GSoC project is to lay the groundwork for
 LDMF, a format that will allow Tahoe-LAFS to deal with and encourage
 multiple versions of a single cap on the grid. In line with this, there
 is a now a distinction between an overriding mutable file (which can be
 thought to correspond to the cap/unique identifier for that mutable
 file) and versions of the mutable file (which we can download, update,
 and so on). All download, upload, and modification operations end up
 happening on a particular version of a mutable file, but there are
 shortcut methods on the object representing the overriding mutable file
 that perform these operations on the best version of the mutable file
 (which is what code should be doing until we have LDMF and better
 support for other paradigms).
 
 Another goal of MDMF was to take advantage of segmentation to give
 callers more efficient partial file updates or appends. This patch
 implements methods that do that, too.

 This avoids spamming the "recent uploads and downloads" /status page from
 FileNode instances that were created for a directory read but which nobody is
 ever going to read from. I also cleaned up the way DownloadStatus instances
 are made to only ever do it in the CiphertextFileNode, not in the
 higher-level plaintext FileNode. Also fixed DownloadStatus handling of read

 The lost-progress bug occurred when two simultanous read() calls fetched
 different segments, and the first one failed (due to corruption, or the other
 bugs in #1154): the second read() would never complete. While in this state,
 cancelling the second read by having its consumer call stopProducing) would
 trigger the cancel-intolerance bug. Finally, in downloader.node.Cancel,
 prevent late cancels by adding an 'active' flag

[One fix for bug #1154: webapi GETs with a 'Range' header broke new-downloader.
Brian Warner <warner@lothar.com>**20100804184549
 Ignore-this: ffa3e703093a905b416af125a7923b7b
 
 The Range header causes n.read() to be called with an offset= of type 'long',
 which eventually got used in a Spans/DataSpans object's __len__ method.
 Apparently python doesn't permit __len__() to return longs, only ints.
 Rewrote Spans/DataSpans to use s.len() instead of len(s) aka s.__len__() .
 Added a test in test_download. Note that test_web didn't catch this because
 it uses mock FileNodes for speed: it's probably time to rewrite that.
 
 There is still an unresolved error-recovery problem in #1154, so I'm not
 closing the ticket quite yet.
