342[* fuse/runtests: added --catch-up-pause option
343robk-tahoe@allmydata.com**20081021002902
344 
345 On linux, write tests are failing because data written to fuse isn't showing
346 up in tahoe by the time it's checked.  it's not clear where this is originating,
347 since the fuse implementation [should be] waiting for completion of tahoe
348 operations before returning from its calls.  This adds an option to control the
349 duration of a pause between the fuse write and the check of tahoe, which is by
350 default set to 2s on linux, which - somewhat inexplicably - seems to 'fix' the
351 problem, in as far as it allows tests to complete.

359robk-tahoe@allmydata.com**20081020233333
360 
361 previously, upon opening a file for reading, the open() call would block
362 while the entire file was retrieved from tahoe into the cache directory.
363 This change adds a DownloaderWithReadQueue class, and associated plumbing,
364 such that an open() will return promptly with the download initiated 'in
365 the background'.  Subsequent read() operations will block until enough
366 data has been downloaded to satisfy that request.  This provides a behaviour
367 similar to streaming, i.e. the client application will be able to read
368 data from the fuse interface while the remainder of the file is still being
369 downloaded.

374 
375 this test uploads a test file to tahoe, and then reads the file from fuse,
376 but reads the blocks of the file in a random order; this is designed to
377 exercise the asynchronous download feature of blackmatch - where the file
378 is downloaded from tahoe asynchronously, and rather than blocking open()
379 for the entirety of the download, instead individual read() calls are
380 blocked until enough of the file has been downloaded to satisfy them

410 
411 since the current tests assume that the implementation responds to changes made

498[fuse/blackmatch: split into client/server (twisted server)
499robk-tahoe@allmydata.com**20081016150846
500 
501 This implements a client/server split for blackmatch, where the client
502 implements the fuse_main bindings and a simple blocking rpc client mechanism.
503 The server implements the other half of that rpc mechanism, and contains all
504 the actual logic for interpreting fuse requests in the context of the on disk
505 cache and requests to the tahoe node.  The server is based on a twisted reactor.
506 
507 The rpc mechanism implements a simple method dispatch including marshalling,
508 using json, of basic inert data types, in a flat namespace (no objects).
509 The client side is written in a blocking idiom, to interface with the threading
510 model used by the fuse_main bindings, whereas the server side is written for a
511 twisted reactor-based environment, intended to facilitate implementing more
512 sophisticated logic in that paradigm.  The two communicate over a unix domain
513 socket, allocated within the nodedir.
514 
515 Command line usage is unchanged; the server is launched automatically by the
516 client. The server daemonizes itself, to avoid preventing the original parent
517 process (e.g. 'runtests') from waiting upon the server exiting.
518 
519 The client keeps open a 'keepalive' connection to the server; upon loss thereof
520 the server will exit. This addresses the fact that the python-fuse bindings
521 provide no notification of exit of the client process upon unmount.
522 
523 The client thus provides a relatively thin 'shim' proxying requests from the
524 fuse_main bindings across the rpc to the server process, which handles the
525 logic behind each request. 
526 
527 For the time being, a '--no-split' option is provided to surpress the splitting
528 into client/server, yielding the prior behaviour.  Once the server logic gets
529 more complex and more entrenched in a twisted idiom, this might be removed.
530 The 'runtests' test harness currently tests both modes, as 'impl_c' and
531 'impl_c_no_split'

535robk-tahoe@allmydata.com**20081016143547
536 
537 the previous revision of blackmatch used a file_class to delegate all fuse
538 api operations on files to a specific per-file class, which is an option
539 given by the python-fuse bindings.
540 
541 this is a pre-cursor to the 'split' client/server version, which uses a
542 simple, moreover flat, rpc mechanism to broker access to methods.

557robk-tahoe@allmydata.com**20081016142836

560 'write' (or 'all', the default) and runs those suites which are applicable to
561 each implementation being tested.
562 
563 added a --tests option, which takes a list of tests, e.g. 'read_file_contents'
564 'write_overlapping_large_writes' and runs all tests specified without regard
565 to whether the implementation(s) under test are declared to support them.
566

568 during development and debugging by not running the entire suite

570[fuse/runtests: added 'random scatter' write test
571robk-tahoe@allmydata.com**20081003233436
572 
573 this writes the test file in a randomised order, with randomly sized writes.
574 also for each 'slice' of the file written, a randomly chosen overlapping
575 write is also made to the file.  this ensures that the file will be written
576 in its entirety in a thoroughly random order, with many overlapping writes.

578[fuse/runtests: add overlapping write tests
579robk-tahoe@allmydata.com**20081003224833
580 
581 using both small and large blocksizes for writes, write a 1Mb file to fuse
582 where every write overlaps another.
583 
584 This serves a useful purpose - in manual testing of blackmatch some time ago
585 most operations e.g. bulk copies, worked fine, but using rsync caused data
586 corruption on most files.  it turned out to be that rsync writes in 64K blocks,
587 but rather than making the last block short, the last block instead overlaps
588 the preceding (already written) block.  This revealed a problem where cache
589 files were being opened 'append' rather than 'write' and hence the overlapping
590 write to the fuse layer caused the overlapping portion of the file to be
591 duplicated in cache, leading to oversized and corrupt files being uploaded.

610 that the entire file body fits trivially in a single write() operation,

617 pause at various stages of the process to facilitate debugging, this
618 option simplifies that debugging by automatically opening a web browser
619 to the root dir of that implementation's tests when tests are commenced.
620 
621 in addition, if --web-open is specfied but --debug-wait is not, the
622 harness will still pause after running tests but before tearing down
623 the tahoe grid - this allows all tests to run to completion, but

628robk-tahoe@allmydata.com**20081003171309
629 
630 from my examination of the tahoe_fuse ('impl_a') code, it looks like
631 the intention is to cache the file contents in memory while it's open,
632 since it does in fact do that.  however it looks like it also ignored
633 that cache entirely, and made an individual tahoe webapi GET request
634 for each and every read() operation regardless of the relative size of
635 the read block and the file in question.

805[gui/macapp: rough cut of ui tweaks; configurability, auto-mount
806robk-tahoe@allmydata.com**20080925141224
807 
808 chatting with peter, two things the mac gui needed were the ability to mount
809 the 'allmydata drive' automatically upon launching the app, and open the
810 Finder to reveal it.  (also a request to hide the debug 'open webroot' stuff)
811 
812 this (somewhat rough) patch implements all the above as default behaviour
813 
814 it also contains a quick configuration mechanism for the gui - rather than a
815 preferences gui, running with a more 'tahoe' styled mechanism, the contents
816 of a few optional files can modify the default behaviour, specifically file
817 in ~/.tahoe/gui.conf control behaviour as follows:
818 
819 auto-mount (bool): if set (the default) then the mac app will, upon launch
820 automatically mount the 'tahoe:' alias with the display name 'Allmydata'
821 using a mountpoint of ~/.tahoe/mnt/__auto__
822 
823 auto-open (bool): if set (the default) then upon mounting a file system
824 (including the auto-mount if set) finder will be opened to the mountpoint
825 of the filesystem, which essentially reveals the newly mounted drive in a
826 Finder window
827 
828 show-webopen (bool): if set (false by default) then the 'open webroot'
829 action will be made available in both the dock and file menus of the app
830 
831 daemon-timout (int): sets the daemon-timeout option passed into tahoe fuse
832 when a filesystem is mounted. this defaults to 5 min
833 
834 files of type (int) much, naturally contain a parsable int representation.
835 files of type (bool) are considered true if their (case-insensitive) contents
836 are any of ['y', 'yes', 'true', 'on', '1'] and considered false otherwise.

897[fuse/impl_c: move mac tahoefuse impl out into contrib/fuse
898robk-tahoe@allmydata.com**20080925014214
899 
900 For a variety of reasons, high amongst them the fact that many people
901 interested in fuse support for tahoe seem to have missed its existence,
902 the existing fuse implementation for tahoe, previously 'mac/tahoefuse.py'
903 has been renamed and moved.
904 
905 It was suggested that, even though the mac build depends upon it, that
906 the mac/tahoefuse implementation be moved into contrib/fuse along with
907 the other fuse implementations.  The fact that it's not as extensively
908 covered by unit tests as mainline tahoe was given as corroboration.
909 
910 In a bid to try and stem the confusion inherent in having tahoe_fuse,
911 tfuse and tahoefuse jumbled together (not necessarily helped by
912 referring to them as impl_a, b and c respectively) I'm hereby renaming
913 tahoefuse as 'blackmatch'  (black match is, per wikipedia "a type of
914 crude fuse" hey, I'm a punny guy)  Maybe one day it'll be promoted to
915 be 'quickmatch' instead...
916 
917 Anyway, this patch moves mac/tahoefuse.py out to contrib/fuse/impl_c/
918 as blackmatch.py, and makes appropriate changes to the mac build process
919 to transclude blackmatch therein.  this leaves the extant fuse.py and
920 fuseparts business in mac/ as-is and doesn't attempt to address such
921 issues in contrib/fuse/impl_c.
922 
923 it is left as an exercise to the reader (or the reader of a message
924 to follow) as to how to deal with the 'fuse' python module on the mac.
925 
926 as of this time, blackmatch should work on both mac and linux, and
927 passes the four extant tests in runtests.  (fwiw neither impl_a nor
928 impl_b have I managed to get working on the mac yet)
929 
930 since blackmatch supports a read-write and caching fuse interface to
931 tahoe, some write tests obviously need to be added to runtests.

934[macapp: changes to support aliases, updated tahoefuse command line options
935robk-tahoe@allmydata.com**20080925010128
936 
937 the tahoefuse command line options changed to support the runtests harness,
938 and as part of that gained support for named aliases via --alias
939 
940 this changes the mac app's invocation of tahoefuse to match that, and also
941 changes the gui to present the list of defined aliases as valid mounts
942 
943 this replaces the previous logic which examined the ~/.tahoe/private directory
944 looking for files ending in '.cap' - an ad-hoc alias mechanism.
945 
946 if a file is found matching ~/.tahoe/private/ALIASNAME.icns then that will still
947 be passed to tahoefuse as the icon to display for that filesystem. if no such
948 file is found, the allmydata icon will be used by default.
949 
950 the '-olocal' option is passed to tahoefuse.  this is potentially contentious.
951 specifically this is telling the OS that this is a 'local' filesystem, which is
952 intended to be used to locally attached devices.  however leopard (OSX 10.5)
953 will only display non-local filesystems in the Finder's side bar if they are of
954 fs types specifically known by Finder to be network file systems (nfs, cifs,
955 webdav, afp)  hence the -olocal flag is the only way on leopard to cause finder
956 to display the mounted filesystem in the sidebar, but it displays as a 'device'.
957 there is a potential (i.e. the fuse docs carry warnings) that this may cause
958 vague and unspecified undesirable behaviour.
959 (c.f. http://code.google.com/p/macfuse/wiki/FAQ specifically Q4.3 and Q4.1)

963[fuse/impl_c: reworking of mac/tahoefuse, command line options, test integration
964robk-tahoe@allmydata.com**20080925001535
965 
966 a handful of changes to the tahoefuse implementation used by the mac build, to
967 make command line option parsing more flexible and robust, and moreover to
968 facilitate integration of this implementation with the 'runtests' test harness
969 used to test the other two implementations.
970 
971 this patch includes;
972 - improvements to command line option parsing [ see below ]
973 - support for 'aliases' akin to other tahoe tools
974 - tweaks to support linux (ubuntu hardy)
975 
976 the linux support tweaks are, or at least seem to be, a result of the fact that
977 hardy ships with fuse 0.2pre3, as opposed to the fuse0.2 that macfuse is based
978 upon.  at least the versions I was working with have discrepencies in their
979 interfaces, but on reflection this is probably a 'python-fuse' version issue
980 rather than fuse per se.  At any rate, the fixes to handling the Stat objects
981 should be safe against either version, it's just that the bindings on hardy
982 lacked code that was in the 'fuse' python module on the mac...
983 
984 command line options:
985 
986 the need for more flexible invocation in support of the runtests harness led
987 me to rework the argument parsing from some simple positional hacks with a
988 pass-through of the remainder to the fuse binding's 'fuse_main' to a system
989 using twisted.usage to parse arguments, and having just one option '-o' being
990 explicitly a pass-through for -o options to fuse_main. the options are now:
991 
992 --node-directory NODEDIR : this is used to look up the node-url to connect
993 to if that's not specified concretely on the command line, and also used to
994 determine the location of the cache directory used by the implementation,
995 specifically '_cache' within the nodedir.  default value: ~/.tahoe
996 
997 --node-url NODEURL : specify a node-url taking precendence over that found
998 in the node.url file within the nodedir
999 
1000 --alias ALIAS : specifies the named alias should be mounted. a lookup is
1001 performed in the alias table within 'nodedir' to find the root dir cap
1002 the named alias must exist in the alias table of the specified nodedir
1003 
1004 --root-uri ROOTURI : specifies that the given directory uri should be mounted
1005 
1006 at least one of --alias and --root-uri must be given (which directory to mount
1007 must be specified somehow)  if both are given --alias takes precedence.
1008 
1009 --cache-timeout TIMEOUTSECS : specifies the number of seconds that cached
1010 directory data should be considered valid for.  this tahoefuse implementation
1011 implements directory caching for a limited time; largely because the mac (i.e.
1012 the Finder in particular) tends to make a large number of requests in quick
1013 successsion when browsing the filesystem.  on the flip side, the 'runtests'
1014 unit tests fail in the face of such caching because the changes made to the
1015 underlying tahoe directories are not reflected in the fuse presentation.  by
1016 specifying a cache-timeout of 0 seconds, runtests can force the fuse layer
1017 into refetching directory data upon each request.
1018 
1019 any number of -oname=value options may be specified on the command line,
1020 and they will all be passed into the underlying fuse_main call.
1021 
1022 a single non-optional argument, the mountpoint, must also be given.

1027[fuse/tests: slew of changes to fuse 'runtests'
1028robk-tahoe@allmydata.com**20080924183601
1029 
1030 This patch makes a significant number of changes to the fuse 'runtests' script
1031 which stem from my efforts to integrate the third fuse implementation into this
1032 framework.  Perhaps not all were necessary to that end, and I beg nejucomo's
1033 forebearance if I got too carried away.
1034 
1035 - cleaned up the blank lines; imho blank lines should be empty
1036 
1037 - made the unmount command switch based on platform, since macfuse just uses
1038 'umount' not the 'fusermount' command (which doesn't exist)
1039 
1040 - made the expected working dir for runtests the contrib/fuse dir, not the
1041 top-level tahoe source tree - see also discussion of --path-to-tahoe below
1042 
1043 - significantly reworked the ImplProcManager class.  rather than subclassing
1044 for each fuse implementation to be tested, the new version is based on
1045 instantiating objects and providing relevant config info to the constructor.
1046 this was motivated by a desire to eliminate the duplication of similar but
1047 subtly different code between instances, framed by consideration of increasing
1048 the number of platforms and implementations involved. each implementation to
1049 test is thus reduced to the pertinent import and an entry in the
1050 'implementations' table defining how to handle that implementation. this also
1051 provides a way to specify which sets of tests to run for each implementation,
1052 more on that below.
1053 
1054 
1055 - significantly reworked the command line options parsing, using twisted.usage;
1056 
1057 what used to be a single optional argument is now represented by the
1058 --test-type option which allows one to choose between running unittests, the
1059 system tests, or both.
1060 
1061 the --implementations option allows for a specific (comma-separated) list of
1062 implemenations to be tested, or the default 'all'
1063 
1064 the --tests option allows for a specific (comma-separated) list of tests sets
1065 to be run, or the default 'all'.  note that only the intersection of tests
1066 requested on the command line and tests relevant to each implementation will
1067 be run. see below for more on tests sets.
1068 
1069 the --path-to-tahoe open allows for the path to the 'tahoe' executable to be
1070 specified. it defaults to '../../bin/tahoe' which is the location of the tahoe
1071 script in the source tree relative to the contrib/fuse dir by default.
1072 
1073 the --tmp-dir option controls where temporary directories (and hence
1074 mountpoints) are created during the test.  this defaults to /tmp - a change
1075 from the previous behaviour of using the system default dir for calls to
1076 tempfile.mkdtemp(), a behaviour which can be obtained by providing an empty
1077 value, e.g. "--tmp-dir="
1078 
1079 the --debug-wait flag causes the test runner to pause waiting upon user
1080 input at various stages through the testing, which facilitates debugging e.g.
1081 by allowing the user to open a browser and explore or modify the contents of
1082 the ephemeral grid after it has been instantiated but before tests are run,
1083 or make environmental adjustments before actually triggering fuse mounts etc.
1084 note that the webapi url for the first client node is printed out upon its
1085 startup to facilitate this sort of debugging also.
1086 
1087 
1088 - the default tmp dir was changed, and made configurable. previously the
1089 default behaviour of tempfile.mkdtemp() was used.  it turns out that, at least
1090 on the mac, that led to temporary directories to be created in a location
1091 which ultimately led to mountpoint paths longer than could be handled by
1092 macfuse - specifically mounted filesystems could not be unmounted and would
1093 'leak'. by changing the default location to be rooted at /tmp this leads to
1094 mountpoint paths short enough to be supported without problems.
1095 
1096 - tests are now grouped into 'sets' by method name prefix.  all the existing
1097 tests have been moved into the 'read' set, i.e. with method names starting
1098 'test_read_'. this is intended to facilitate the fact that some implementations
1099 are read-only, and some support write, so the applicability of tests will vary
1100 by implementation. the 'implementations' table, which governs the configuration
1101 of the ImplProcManager responsible for a given implementation, provides a list
1102 of 'test' (i.e test set names) which are applicable to that implementation.
1103 note no 'write' tests yet exist, this is merely laying the groundwork.
1104 
1105 - the 'expected output' of the tahoe command, which is checked for 'surprising'
1106 output by regex match, can be confused by spurious output from libraries.
1107 specfically, testing on the mac produced a warning message about zope interface
1108 resolution various multiple eggs.  the 'check_tahoe_output()' function now has
1109 a list of 'ignorable_lines' (each a regex) which will be discarded before the
1110 remainder of the output of the tahoe script is matched against expectation.

1115[fuse/impl_{a,b}: improve node-url handling
1116robk-tahoe@allmydata.com**20080924182854
1117   
1118 specifically change the expectation of the code to be such that the node-url
1119 (self.url) always includes the trailing slash to be a correctly formed url
1120 
1121 moreover read the node-url from the 'node.url' file found in the node 'basedir'
1122 and only if that doesn't exist, then fall back to reading the 'webport' file
1123 from therein and assuming localhost.  This then supports the general tahoe
1124 pattern that tools needing only a webapi server can be pointed at a directory
1125 containing the node.url file, which can optionally point to another server,
1126 rather than requiring a complete node dir and locally running node instance.

1129[fuse/impl_b: tweaks from testing on hardy
1130robk-tahoe@allmydata.com**20080924180738
1131 
1132 from testing on linux (specifically ubuntu hardy) the libfuse dll has a
1133 different name, specifically libfuse.so.2. this patch tries libfuse.so
1134 and then falls back to trying .2 if the former fails.
1135 
1136 it also changes the unmount behaviour, to simply return from the handler's
1137 loop_forever() loop upon being unmounted, rather than raising an EOFError,
1138 since none of the client code I looked at actually handled that exception,
1139 but did seem to expect to fall off of main() when loop_forever() returned.
1140 Additionally, from my testing unmount typically led to an OSError from the
1141 fuse fd read, rather than an empty read, as the code seemed to expect.
1142 
1143 also removed a spurious import pyflakes quibbled about.

1147 
1148 zooko helped me unravel a build weirdness today.  somehow the system installed
1149 twisted (/System/Library) was pulling in parts of the other twisted (/Library)
1150 which had been installed by easy_install, and exploding.
1151 
1152 getting rid of the latter helped, but it took this change to get the tahoe

1154 already installed. c.f. tkt #229

1156[CLI: rework webopen, and moreover its tests w.r.t. path handling
1157robk-tahoe@allmydata.com**20080924164523
1158 
1159 in the recent reconciliation of webopen patches, I wound up adjusting
1160 webopen to 'pass through' the state of the trailing slash on the given
1161 argument to the resultant url passed to the browser.  this change
1162 removes the requirement that arguments must be directories, and allows
1163 webopen to be used with files.  it also broke the tests that assumed
1164 that webopen would always normalise the url to have a trailing slash.
1165 
1166 in fixing the tests, I realised that, IMHO, there's something deeply
1167 awry with the way tahoe handles paths; specifically in the combination
1168 of '/' being the name of the root path within an alias, but a leading
1169 slash on paths, e.g. 'alias:/path', is catagorically incorrect. i.e.
1170  'tahoe:' == 'tahoe:/' == '/'
1171 but 'tahoe:/foo' is an invalid path, and must be 'tahoe:foo'
1172 
1173 I wound up making the internals of webopen simply spot a 'path' of
1174 '/' and smash it to '', which 'fixes' webopen to match the behaviour
1175 of tahoe's path handling elsewhere, but that special case sort of
1176 points to the weirdness.
1177 
1178 (fwiw, I personally found the fact that the leading / in a path was
1179 disallowed to be weird - I'm just used to seeing paths qualified by
1180 the leading / I guess - so in a debate about normalising path handling
1181 I'd vote to include the /)

1653 This causes a problem on debian sid, since the pyOpenSSL v0.6 .deb doesn't come
1654 with .egg-info, so setuptools will not know that it is already installed and
1655 will try to install pyOpenSSL, and if it installs pyOpenSSL v0.7, then this
1656 will trigger the bug in Twisted v8.1.0 when used with pyOpenSSL v0.7.
1657 
1658 http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/3218
1659 
1660 Now the comments in twisted #3218 suggest that it happens only with the select
1661 reactor, so maybe using --reactor=poll will avoid it.
