We have the invalid bit to indicate that a file isn't good. That's enough for remote devices. For ourselves, it would be good to know sometimes why the file isn't good - because it's an unsupported type, because it matches an ignore pattern, or because we detected the data is bad and we need to rescan it.
Or, and this is the main future reason for the PR, because it's a change detected on a receive only device. We will want something like the invalid flag for those changes, but marking them as invalid today means the scanner will rehash them. Hence something more fine grained is required.
This introduces a LocalFlags fields to the FileInfo where we can stash things that we care about locally. For example,
FlagLocalUnsupported = 1 << 0 // The kind is unsupported, e.g. symlinks on Windows
FlagLocalIgnored = 1 << 1 // Matches local ignore patterns
FlagLocalMustRescan = 1 << 2 // Doesn't match content on disk, must be rechecked fully
The LocalFlags fields isn't sent over the wire; instead the Invalid attribute is calculated based on the flags at index sending time. It's on the FileInfo anyway because that's what we serialize to database etc.
The actual Invalid flag should after this just be considered when building the global state and figuring out availability for remote devices. It is not used for local file index entries.
To optimize WithNeed, which is called for the local device whenever an index
update is received. No tracking for remote devices to conserve db space, as
WithNeed is only queried for completion.
I'm trying to slowly clean this up a bit, and moving functionality out
into the folder types and having those methods not reach into model is
part of it. That can mean takign some odd arguments in the meantime,
some of those should probably become interfaces or properties on folder
in the long term.
The functionality was anyway mostly implemented there and not isolated
in the folderScanner type. The attempt to refactor it out in the other
direction wouldn't work given that the event loop and stuff is on
`folder`.
To newer names better reflecting their types and yet sorting together
with folder.go. Doing it now without asking because there are no open
PRs that will get killed by it, and to avoid bikeshedding the names.
The actual pull method (which is really the only thing that differs
between them) is now an interface member which gets overridden by the
subclass.
"Subclass?!" Well, this is dynamic dispatch with overriding, I guess.
Instead of walking and unmarshalling the entire db and sorting the resulting
file infos by sequence, add store device keys by sequence number in the
database. Thus only the required file infos need be unmarshalled and are already
sorted by index.
Bumping the limit to 2 * the max block size (16 MiB) is a slight
increase compared to previously. Nonetheless I think it's good to allow
us to queue one request and have one on the way in, or conversely have
one large block on the way in and be able to ask for smaller blocks from
others at the same time.
Unignored files are marked as conflicting while scanning, which is then resolved
in the subsequent pull. Automatically reconciles needed items on send-only
folders, if they do not actually differ except for internal metadata.
This doesn't happen today, but it might in the future if the block size
were increased or made variable and we were talking to a client from the
future.
When scanner.Walk detects a change, it now returns the new file info as well as the old file info. It also finds deleted and ignored files while scanning.
Also directory deletions are now always committed to db after their children to prevent temporary failure on remote due to non-empty directory.
Since #4340 pulls aren't happening every 10s anymore and may be delayed up to 1h.
This means that no folder error event reaches the web UI for a long time, thus no
failed items will show up for a long time. Now errors are populated when the
web UI is opened.
