Large model GGUFs (multi-GB) transferred between master and worker over
flaky / bandwidth-throttled paths (e.g. libp2p relays with byte caps) used
to restart from byte 0 on every transport error. This change adds standard
HTTP Range/resume semantics to the worker's PUT /v1/files/<key> endpoint
and teaches the master-side HTTPFileStager to consult the worker for the
last accepted offset and resume from there.
Server side (file_transfer_server.go):
- PUT now honors Content-Range: bytes <start>-<end>/<total>. The handler
validates that <start> matches the current on-disk size; mismatches
return 416 with the actual size in X-File-Size.
- Mid-upload chunks return 308 Permanent Redirect ("Resume Incomplete")
with the new size, so the client can keep going.
- An optional X-Content-SHA256 request header binds an upload to a target
hash; cross-attempt drift returns 409. On the final chunk the server
re-computes SHA-256 and returns 400 if it doesn't match.
- HEAD now advertises Accept-Ranges: bytes and Content-Length, and exposes
X-Target-SHA256 for in-progress files (so clients can resume only when
the partial bytes belong to the file they want to upload).
- Legacy PUTs with no Content-Range keep the original truncate-create
semantics — zero behavior change on the happy path.
Client side (file_stager_http.go):
- Pre-PUT HEAD probe reads X-File-Size + X-Target-SHA256 to determine the
resume offset.
- doUpload seeks to that offset and sends Content-Range + X-Content-SHA256.
- Retry loop switches from fixed 3 attempts / 5s-10s-20s backoff to an
outer time budget
with exponential backoff (1s -> 30s cap), so a 5GB upload over a flaky
link can outlast many short disconnects.
- 308 and 416 responses are treated as transient: the next iteration
re-HEADs to learn the correct offset.
Tests:
- Two-chunk Content-Range round-trip produces the correct file + sidecar.
- 416 on a Content-Range/file-size mismatch.
- 409 on X-Content-SHA256 drift between chunks.
- 400 on final-hash mismatch.
- HEAD on a partial upload exposes X-Target-SHA256 (not a misleading
hash-of-partial-bytes via X-Content-SHA256).
- Pre-existing finished file with a different hash is transparently
overwritten when a new PUT starts at byte 0.
- End-to-end resume: EnsureRemote against a worker that already holds a
partial file transfers only the remainder.
- Mid-stream connection drop on attempt #1 is recovered by attempt #2
resuming from the partial offset.
