The current Twisted release is 12.1.0, which (like 12.0.0 before it)
isn't compatible with foolscap-0.6.2 and earlier. We previously required
foolscap>=0.6.1, since that's all we actually need from foolscap itself.
_auto_deps specifies twisted>=11.0.0, so any system that can't meet that
will install the current Twisted (12.1.0), which will give them
something incompatible with foolscap-0.6.1 and 0.6.2 .
If we're limited to setuptools's declarative constraint language (and
can't have a function which evaluates the available dependency versions
and gives recommendations on which to change), then the only safe
approach is to make sure that any acceptable Foolscap version will be
compatible with all acceptable Twisted versions. So, bump the foolscap
dependency to >=0.6.3, which covers all currently-known
incompatibilities.
The wait_for_connections() method, which is used at the start of
test_system to make sure that all the clients are connected to all the
servers, did not also wait for clients to be connected to their Helpers.
Every once in a while, the helper connection would take a bit longer,
and then
test_system.SystemTest.test_filesystem._test_web._got_welcome_helper
would fail, because we'd check for a helper connection before it was
ready.
The fix is to modify wait_for_connections's polling predicate to look
for helper connections (if configured) as well as the regular
introducer- and server- connections.
Tested by temporarily adding a large (30s) delay to the connectTo() call
in Uploader.startService, simulating a long helper
connection-establishment delay. This makes the test fail consistently.
Then I fixed wait_for_connections(), and the test passed (slowly). Then
I removed the delay.
Closes#1467
Improve the column headers to make it clear that this list shows Tub
IDs. (we can't show pubkey-based serverids because clients don't give
those to us: only servers provide pubkeys). This should be the only
place in the whole webapi that shows TubIDs for modern (V2-introducer)
nodes.
This makes it easy to distinguish between old V1-Introducer
nodes (identified by their Foolscap TubID) and new V2 nodes (identified
by their ed25519 pubkey).
This fixes a few places where we used to display a tubid even if we had
a pubkey, making it hard to visually correlate servers in two different
displays. It also cleans up the way we pass serverids to the JS-based
download timeline.
The "introweb" subscribed-clients list still shows tubids.
The _upload_resumable() test interrupts a Helper upload partway
through (by shutting down the Helper), then restarts the Helper and
resumes the upload. The control flow is kind of tricky: to do anything
"partway through" requires adding a hook to the Uploadable. The previous
flow depended upon a (fragile) call to self.stall(), which waits a fixed
number of seconds.
This removes one of those stall() calls (the remainder is in
test/common.py and I'll try removing it in a subsequent revision). It
also removes some now-redundant wait_for_connections() calls, since
bounce_client() doesn't fire its Deferred until the client has finished
coming back up (and uses wait_for_connections() internally to do so).
There was one corner case (where the client disconnects at just the
wrong time) that could have dropped a Deferred, leading to an Unhandled
Error. Clean up the control flow to avoid this case.
This prepares for invitation-based reciprocal-permission Accounting. In
the scheme I'm developing, nodes publish "I accept shares from Y"
messages, which are assembled into a graph, and server will accept
shares from any client node reachable in this graph. For this to work,
the serverX->clientY edge must be connectable to the serverY->clientZ
edge, which means "clientY" and "serverY" must be connected. If clientY
and serverY are two distinct keys, they must be cross-signed. Life is
easier if there's just one key "Y", rather than distinct client- and
server- keys. Calling this one key "server.privkey" would be confusing.
"node.privkey" and "node.pubkey" makes more sense.
One-server-per-node is a pretty easy restriction. Originally I was
thinking that the client.key should be provided in each webapi call,
just like a filecap is, making a single node useable by multiple users
(Accounting principals), and not providing any ambient storage
authority. But I've been unable to think of a comfortable WUI for
that (at least without requiring javascript), nor a friendly way to
transfer account authority (e.g. writecaps that include storage
authority). So I'm more willing to have one-client-per-node these days.
(and note that this rename doesn't seriously preclude
many-clients-per-node or zero-clients-per-node anyways, it just makes
one-client-per-node less awkward)
