For a brief while (in between releases 1.9 and 1.10, specifically from
revision bc21726 on 12-Mar-2012, until bf416af on 10-Jun-2012), the new
introducer code stored its node key in NODEDIR/private/server.privkey .
After that point, it was updated to store this key in
NODEDIR/private/node.privkey instead. Fallback code was added to read
from the old location if present (so that folks using development
versions could keep their node keys after the bf416af change).
This patch removes the fallback code. If you have a node which was run
under a version of Tahoe within this range, you need to manually update
your node by running:
mv NODEDIR/private/server.privkey NODEDIR/private/node.privkey
and then restart the node. If you accidentally start an older node with
code after this patch, it will create a new key (and other peers will
think a new server has appeared). You can either stick with the new key,
or use the command above to switch back to the old key.
See docs/nodekeys.rst (not yet written) for details about the node key
and how it is used.
The new rules for "bin/tahoe ARG1.. SUBCOMMAND ARG2.." arg:
* --node-directory is only accepted in ARG1, not ARG2
* create-*/start/stop/restart accept --basedir in ARG2, or an explicit
basedir argument
* only one of --node-directory/--basedir/explicit-basedir is accepted
* --quiet/--version is only accepted in ARG1, not ARG2
Closes#166
This should now fail quickly (during "tahoe start"). Previously this
would silently treat an unparseable size as "0", and the only way to
discover that it had had a problem would be to look at the foolscap log,
or examine the storage-service web page for the unexpected "Reserved
Size" number.
Previously, Introducers always used a swissnum of "introducer", so
anyone who could learn the (public) tubid of the introducer would be
able to connect to and use it. This changes new Introducers to use the
same randomly-generated swissnum as clients and storage servers do, so
that you absolutely must learn the introducer.furl from someone who
knows it already before you can connect.
This change also moves the location of the file that stores
introducer.furl from BASEDIR/introducer.furl to
BASEDIR/private/introducer.furl, since that's where we keep the private
things. The first time an introducer is started with the new code, it
will move any existing BASEDIR/introducer.furl into the new place.
Note that this will not change the FURL of existing introducers: it will
only affect newly created ones. When you change an introducer's FURL,
you must also update all of the nodes (clients and storage servers)
which connect to it, so upgrading it to an unguessable one isn't
something we should do automatically.
This stores the sequence number in BASEDIR/announcement-seqnum, and
increments it each time any service is published (every service
announcement is regenerated with the new sequence number). As everyone
knows, time is an illusion, and occasionally goes backwards, so a
counter is generally safer (and reveals less information about the
node).
Later, we'll improve the introducer client to tolerate rollbacks (where,
perhaps due to a VM being restarted from an earlier checkpoint, the
stored sequence number reverts to an earlier version).
I want mode="w" (i.e. text, with newline conversion) for code that
writes newline-terminated strings (which should also be human readable)
to files. I like to use things like "cat .tahoe/permutation-seed"
without seeing the seed jammed together with the next command prompt.
twisted.web.html.escape was used to produce html-encoded string (to then look
it up in "value" attribute), but behavior of that function has changed between
Twisted 12.2.0 (simple custom implementation) and 12.3.0 (imported from stdlib
cgi module).
This also simplifies how case-insensitivity is handled, and fixes a corner case
where the wrong exception was raised when the size ends in "BB".

This contains several merged patches. Individual messages follow, latest first:
* Fix a warning from check-miscaptures.
* In retrieve.py, explicitly test whether a key is in self.servermap.proxies
rather than catching KeyError.
* Added a new comment to the MDMF version of the test I removed, explaining
the removal of the SDMF version.
* Removed test_corrupt_all_block_hash_tree_late, since the entire block_hash_tree
is cached in the servermap for an SDMF file.
* Fixed several tests that require files larger than the servermap cache.
* Remove unused test_response_cache_memory_leak().
* Exercise the cache.
* Test infrastructure for counting cache misses on MDMF files.
* Removed the ResponseCache. Instead, the MDMFSlotReadProxy initialized
by ServerMap is kept around so Retrieve can access it. The ReadProxy
has a cache of the first 1000 bytes initially read from each share by
the ServerMap. We're able to satisfy a number of requests out of this
cache, so roundtrips are reduced from 84 to 60 in test_deepcheck_mdmf.
There is still some mystery about under what conditions the cache has
fewer than 1000 bytes. Also this breaks some existing unit tests that
depend on the inner behavior of ResponseCache.
* The servermap.proxies (a cache of SlotReadProxies) is now keyed
by (verinfo,serverid,shnum) rather than just (serverid,shnum)
* Minor cosmetic changes
* Added a test failure if the number of cache misses is too high.
