7996131a0a upload: stop putting plaintext and ciphertext hashes in shares.
This removes the guess-partial-information attack vector, and reduces
the amount of overhead that we consume with each file. It also introduces
a forwards-compability break: older versions of the code (before the
previous download-time "make hashes optional" patch) will be unable
to read files uploaded by this version, as they will complain about the
missing hashes. This patch is experimental, and is being pushed into
trunk to obtain test coverage. We may undo it before releasing 1.0.

7c6de95bc6 switch from base62 to base32 for storage indices, switch from z-base-32 to rfc 3548 base-32 for everything, separate out base32 encoding from idlib 2008-02-14 19:27:47 -07:00

3f8df27063 use base62 encoding for storage indexes, on disk and in verifier caps, and in logging and diagnostic tools
base62 encoding fits more information into alphanumeric chars while avoiding the troublesome non-alphanumeric chars of base64 encoding.  In particular, this allows us to work around the ext3 "32,000 entries in a directory" limit while retaining the convenient property that the intermediate directory names are leading prefixes of the storage index file names.

5399395c27 allow the introducer to set default encoding parameters. Closes #84.
By writing something like "25 75 100" into a file named 'encoding_parameters'
in the central Introducer's base directory, all clients which use that
introducer will be advised to use 25-out-of-100 encoding for files (i.e.
100 shares will be produced, 25 are required to reconstruct, and the upload
process will be happy if it can find homes for at least 75 shares). The
default values are "3 7 10". For small meshes, the defaults are probably
good, but for larger ones it may be appropriate to increase the number of
shares.

dce1dc2730 storage: wrap buckets in a local proxy
This will make it easier to change RIBucketWriter in the future to reduce the wire
protocol to just open/write(offset,data)/close, and do all the structuring on the
client end. The ultimate goal is to store each bucket in a single file, to reduce
the considerable filesystem-quantization/inode overhead on the storage servers.

c049941529 move almost all hashing to SHA256, consolidate into hashutil.py
The only SHA-1 hash that remains is used in the permutation of nodeids,
where we need to decide if we care about performance or long-term security.
I suspect that we could use a much weaker hash (and faster) hash for
this purpose. In the long run, we'll be doing thousands of such hashes
for each file uploaded or downloaded (one per known peer).
