* restore: use symlink-specific APIs instead of chmod, chown and chtimes
* upload: fix updating directory modtime for symlinks
* cli: plumbed through flags to restore to control new behaviors
* localfs: use Lstat() instead of Stat() in Child() method
* testing: added restore tests for new flags
* testing: don't use expensive scrypt-65536-8-1 in integration tests
* testing: use platform-specific encryption and hashing for arm and arm64 to speed up tests
* testing: manually manage log directory to be able to analyze integration test failures
* testing: snapshot_gc_test was too quick
* Makefile: renamed target building integration test binary
* restore: improved user experience
* 'snapshot restore' is now the same as 'restore' and both will
support restoring by manifest ID, root ID or root ID + subdirectory
* added support for restoring individual files
* implemented PR feedback and refactored object ID parsing
Moving helpers inside the snapshot/ package helped clean up the code
a lot.
* server: repro for zero-sized snapshot bug
As described in https://kopia.discourse.group/t/kopia-0-7-0-not-backing-up-any-files-repro-needed/136/5
* server: fixed zero-sized snapshots after repository is connected via API
The root cause was that source manager was inheriting HTTP call context
which was immediately closed after the 'connect' RPC returned thus
silently killing all uploads.
* [Robustness] Add command line parameters for kopia snapshotter
Add flags for:
- no-progress
- parallel
- cache sizes
- no update check
Add an integration test to validate snapshotter expected output
against a kopia executable.
* logging: revamped logs from content manager to be machine parseable
Logs from the content manager (except reads) are sent to separate log
file that is always free from personally-identifiable information
(e.g. no file names, just content IDs and blob IDs).
Also moved CLI logs to a subdirectory (cli-logs) and put content logs
in a parallel directory (content-logs)
Also, the log file name will now include the type of the command that
was invoked:
kopia-20200913-134157-16110-snapshot-create.log
Fixes#588
* tests: moved all logs from tests to a separate directory
The benchmarks creates 20 GB of files in different configurations
* 10 x 2 GB files
* 100 x 200 MB files
* 1000 x 20 MB files
and backs them up to a local filesystem repository measuring time,
CPU and RAM usage.
The benchmarking script uses GCP instance (n1-standard-8) with fast NVME
flash to eliminate local filesystem latency.
Current performance numbers show major improvement in latency in
0.7.0-rc1 due to splitter throughput optimization (#606).
* cli: ensure advanced commands are not accidentally used
This prints an error when a dangerous command is used without
first setting KOPIA_ADVANCED_COMMANDS=enabled environment variable.

Globally replaced all use of time with internal 'clock' package
which provides indirection to time.Now()
Added support for faking clock in Kopia via KOPIA_FAKE_CLOCK_ENDPOINT
logfile: squelch annoying log message
testenv: added faketimeserver which serves time over HTTP
testing: added endurance test which tests kopia over long time scale
This creates kopia repository and simulates usage of Kopia over multiple
months (using accelerated fake time) to trigger effects that are only
visible after long time passage (maintenance, compactions, expirations).
The test is not used part of any test suite yet but will run in
post-submit mode only, preferably 24/7.
testing: refactored internal/clock to only support injection when
'testing' build tag is present
Followup on recent PR #529, some suggestions and discussion after it was merged:
- Express probability as float in range [0,1]
- Add a unit test for DeleteContentsAtDepth
- Add a comment on writeFilesAtDepth explaining depth vs branchDepth
- Refactor pickRandSubdirPath for easier readability and understanding
Upon some reflection, I decided to refactor pickRandSubdirPath() to gather indexes and pick randomly from them instead of the previous reservoir sampling approach. I think this is easier to understand going forward without extra explanation, doesn't have much additional memory overhead, and reduces the number of rand calls to 1.
* [Robustness] Add additional fio workloads
Add more fio workloads to write files at different depths in random
branches of the generated file system tree.
- Write files at depth
- Write files at a specified depth, creating a new directory branch at
a random depth
- Delete a random directory at a given depth
- Delete some or all of the contents of a random directory at
a specified depth
* [Robustness] Fix for kopia runner and custom work dir
Apply fix similar to #293 for the robustness kopia runner.
Add control for runner working directory.
Fix fswalker to ignore hostname to allow reporting
on walks done across different hosts. Also prevent
Before and After walk data from printing to reduce log size.
This creates a marker file named `.kopia-cache` in the directory
that is the root of cache. When the uploader finds this file, it will
treat the entire directory as if it were empty.
This allows excluding directory caches from entire home and root
directories.
* blob: added DisplayName() method to blob.Storage
* cli: added 'kopia repo sync-to <provider>' which replicates BLOBs
Usage demo: https://asciinema.org/a/352299Fixes#509
* implemented suggestion by Ciantic to fail sync if the destination repository is not compatible with the source
* cli: added 'kopia repo sync --must-exist'
This ensures that target repository is not empty, otherwise syncing to
an accidentally unmounted filesystem directory might copy everything
again.
Fix parsing of pack blob ID by using a specific regex
instead of a strings.Contains. This prevents the test from
misidentifying other blob IDs as pack blobs, such as
`kopia.maintenance`.
* fixed a number of cases where misaligned data was causing panics on armv7 (but not armv8)
* travis: enable arm64
* test: reduce compressed data sizes when running on arm
* arm: wait longer for snapshots
* restore: support for zip, tar and tar.gz restore outputs
Moved restore functionality to its own package.
* Fix enum values in the 'mode' flag

Add two tests:
- TestManySmallFiles: writes 100k files size 4k to a directory. Snapshots the data tree, restores and validates data.
- TestModifyWorkload: Loops over a simple randomized workload. Performs a series of random file writes to some random sub-directories, then takes a snapshot of the data tree. All snapshots taken during this test are restore-verified at the end.
A global test engine is instantiated in main_test.go, to be used in the robustness test suite across tests (saves time loading/saving metadata once per run instead of per test).
* Add test engine to manage snapshot verification testing
Test engine manages the test and metadata repositories, snapshot
checker, metadata storage persistence, and file writer. It is
the high level helper that will be invoked in the snapshot
verification testing suite.
- modify data directory file structure
- issue snapshot/restore/delete to the data directory
- accumulate metadata over the course of the test suite
- flush accumulated metadata to the metadata repository
- load historical metadata from the repository on initialization
- perform automatic data integrity verification on snap restore
This change corresponds to the robustness execution engine component from the design documentation.
Added test that verifies that when client performs Flush (which happens
at the end of each snapshot and when repository is closed), the
server writes new blobs to the storage.
Fixes#464
Connect the snapshotter, the storer, and the comparer. Invoke
the snapshotter to take/restore/delete snapshots on the repo,
the comparer to gather metadata before the snapshot and
after the restore, and the storer to save metadata for later
lookup when verifying restores.
* content: added support for cache of own writes
Thi keeps track of which blobs (n and m) have been written by the
local repository client, so that even if the storage listing
is eventually consistent (as in S3), we get somewhat sane behavior.
Note that this is still assumming read-after-create semantics, which
S3 also guarantees, otherwise it's very hard to do anything useful.
* compaction: support for compaction logs
Instead of compaction immediately deleting source index blobs, we now
write log entries (with `m` prefix) which are merged on reads
and applied only if the blob list includes all inputs and outputs, in
which case the inputs are discarded since they are known to have been
superseded by the outputs.
This addresses eventual consistency issues in stores such as S3,
which don't guarantee list-after-put or list-after-delete. With such
stores the repository is ultimately eventually consistent and there's
not much that can be done about it, unless we use second strongly
consistent storage (such as GCS) for the index only.
* content: updated list cache to cache both `n` and `m`
* repo: fixed cache clear on windows
Clearing cache requires closing repository first, as Windows is holding
the files locked.
This requires ability to close the repository twice.
* content: refactored index blob management into indexBlobManager
* testing: fixed blobtesting.Map storage to allow overwrites
* blob: added debug output String() to blob.Metadata
* testing: added indexBlobManager stress test
This works by using N parallel "actors", each repeatedly performing
operations on indexBlobManagers all sharing single eventually consistent
storage.
Each actor runs in a loop and randomly selects between:
- *reading* all contents in indexes and verifying that it includes
all contents written by the actor so far and that contents are
correctly marked as deleted
- *creating* new contents
- *deleting* one of previously-created contents (by the same actor)
- *compacting* all index files into one
The test runs on accelerated time (every read of time moves it by 0.1
seconds) and simulates several hours of running.
In case of a failure, the log should provide enough debugging
information to trace the exact sequence of events leading up to the
failure - each log line is prefixed with actorID and all storage
access is logged.
* makefile: increase test timeout
* content: fixed index blob manager race
The race is where if we delete compaction log too early, it may lead to
previously deleted contents becoming temporarily live again to an
outside observer.
Added test case that reproduces the issue, verified that it fails
without the fix and passed with one.
* testing: improvements to TestIndexBlobManagerStress test
- better logging to be able to trace the root cause in case of a failure
- prevented concurrent compaction which is unsafe:
The sequence:
1. A creates contentA1 in INDEX-1
2. B creates contentB1 in INDEX-2
3. A deletes contentA1 in INDEX-3
4. B does compaction, but is not seeing INDEX-3 (due to EC or simply
because B started read before #3 completed), so it writes
INDEX-4==merge(INDEX-1,INDEX-2)
* INDEX-4 has contentA1 as active
5. A does compaction but it's not seeing INDEX-4 yet (due to EC
or because read started before #4), so it drops contentA1, writes
INDEX-5=merge(INDEX-1,INDEX-2,INDEX-3)
* INDEX-5 does not have contentA1
7. C sees INDEX-5 and INDEX-5 and merge(INDEX-4,INDEX-5)
contains contentA1 which is wrong, because A has been deleted
(and there's no record of it anywhere in the system)
* content: when building pack index ensure index bytes are different each time by adding 32 random bytes
New usage:
```
kopia snapshot delete manifestID... [--delete]
kopia snapshot delete rootObjectID... [--delete]
```
Fixes#435
cli: added --unsafe-ignore-source as alias for `--delete`
This is a hidden flag for backwards compatibility. It will be removed.
This is done by introducing N unsynchronized caches, which simulate
what frontend of a cloud storage system might do, that causes eventual
consistency behavior.
Support for remote content repository where all contents and
manifests are fetched over HTTP(S) instead of locally
manipulating blob storage
* server: implement content and manifest access APIs
* apiclient: moved Kopia API client to separate package
* content: exposed content.ValidatePrefix()
* manifest: added JSON serialization attributes to EntryMetadata
* repo: changed repo.Open() to return Repository instead of *DirectRepository
* repo: added apiServerRepository
* cli: added 'kopia repository connect server'
This sets up repository connection via the API server instead of
directly-manipulated storage.
* server: add support for specifying a list of usernames/password via --htpasswd-file
* tests: added API server repository E2E test
* server: only return manifests (policies and snapshots) belonging to authenticated user
Maintenance: support for automatic GC
Moved maintenance algorithms from 'cli' to 'repo/maintenance' package
Added support for CLI commands:
kopia gc - performs quick maintenance
kopia gc --full- perform full maintenance
Full maintenance performs snapshot gc, but it's not safe to do this automatically possibly in parallel to snapshots being taken. This will be addressed ~0.7 timeframe.
* server: when serving HTML UI, prefix the title with string from KOPIA_UI_TITLE_PREFIX envar
* kopia-ui: support for multiple repositories + portability
This is a major rewrite of the app/ codebase which changes
how configuration for repositories is maintained and how it flows
through the component hierarchy.
Portable mode is enabled by creating 'repositories' subdirectory before
launching the app.
on macOS:
<parent>/KopiaUI.app
<parent>/repositories/
On Windows, option #1 - nested directory
<parent>\KopiaUI.exe
<parent>\repositories\
On Windows, option #2 - parallel directory
<parent>\some-dir\KopiaUI.exe
<parent>\repositories\
In portable mode, repositories will have 'cache' and 'logs' nested
in it.
* This is 99% mechanical:
Extracted repo.Repository interface that only exposes high-level object and manifest management methods, but not blob nor content management.
Renamed old *repo.Repository to *repo.DirectRepository
Reviewed codebase to only depend on repo.Repository as much as possible, but added way for low-level CLI commands to use DirectRepository.
* PR fixes
* performance: added buf.Pool which can be used to manage ephemeral buffers for encryption and compression
* repo: switched object writer to buf.Pool
* content: switched encryption to use buf.Pool
* object: switched compression to use buf.Pool
* testing: added missing content manager Close()
Add an implementation of the metadata store using kopia snapshots and restores to manage persistence of walk metadata. Metadata are stored to and retrieved from the store, and a mechanism for persisting the store is implemented using kopia snapshots.
* performance: plumbed through output buffer to encryption and hashing, so that the caller can pre-allocate/reuse it
* testing: fixed how we do comparison of byte slices to account for possible nils, which can be returned from encryption
Snapshotter interface describes an entity that can create,
restore, and delete snapshots, as well as manage a repository.
Add kopia implementation of the snapshotter interface.
