Also adds idle time and keepalive parameters because how this is
configured has changed in the new package version. The values are those
that seems like might already be default, if keep-alives were enabled,
which is not obvious from the doc comments.
Also, Go 1.19 gofmt reformatting of comments.
This removes the switch for using a Badger database, because it has bugs
that it seems there is no interest in fixing, and no actual bug tracker
to track them in.
It retains the actual implementation for the sole purpose of being able
to do the conversion back to LevelDB if anyone is actually running with
USE_BADGER. At some point in a couple of versions we can remove the
implementation as well.
Since iterators must be released before committing or discarding a
transaction we have the pattern of both deferring a release plus doing
it manually. But we can't release twice because we track this with a
WaitGroup that will panic when there are more Done()s than Add()s. This
just adds a boolean to let an iterator keep track.
This matches the convention of the stdlib and avoids ambiguity: when
customErr{} and &customErr{} both implement error, client code needs to
check for both.
Memory use should remain the same, since storing a non-pointer type in
an interface value still copies the value to the heap.
This reduces the size of our write batches before we flush them. This
has two effects: reducing the amount of data lost if we crash when
updating the database, and reducing the amount of memory used when we do
large updates without checkpoint (e.g., deleting a folder).
I ran our SyncManyFiles benchmark as it is the one doing most
transactions, however there was no relevant change in any metric (it's
limited by our fsync I expect). This is good as any visible change would
just be a decrease in performance.
I don't have a benchmark on deleting a large folder, taking that part on
trust for now...
This adds metadata updates to the same write batch as the underlying
file change. The odds of a metadata update going missing is greatly
reduced.
Bonus change: actually commit the transaction in recalcMeta.
We could potentially get a snapshot and then fail to get a releaser,
leaking the snapshot. This takes the releaser first and makes sure to
release it on snapshot error.
* lib/db: Deduplicate block lists in database (fixes#5898)
This moves the block list in the database out from being just a field on
the FileInfo to being an object of its own. When putting a FileInfo we
marshal the block list separately and store it keyed by the sha256 of
the marshalled block list. When getting, if we are not doing a
"truncated" get, we do an extra read and unmarshal for the block list.
Old block lists are cleared out by a periodic GC sweep. The alternative
would be to use refcounting, but:
- There is a larger risk of getting that wrong and either dropping a
block list in error or keeping them around forever.
- It's tricky with our current database, as we don't have dirty reads.
This means that if we update two FileInfos with identical block lists in
the same transaction we can't just do read/modify/write for the ref
counters as we wouldn't see our own first update. See above about
tracking this and risks about getting it wrong.
GC uses a bloom filter for keys to avoid heavy RAM usage. GC can't run
concurrently with FileInfo updates so there is a new lock around those
operation at the lowlevel.
The end result is a much more compact database, especially for setups
with many peers where files get duplicated many times.
This is per-key-class stats for a large database I'm currently working
with, under the current schema:

```
Note 7.4 GB of data in class 00, total size 9.2 GB. After running the
migration we get this instead:
```

Class 00 is now down to 2.6 GB, with just 61 MB added in class 0d.
There will be some additional reads in some cases which theoretically
hurts performance, but this will be more than compensated for by smaller
writes and better compaction.
On my own home setup which just has three devices and a handful of
folders the difference is smaller in absolute numbers of course, but
still less than half the old size:
```
0x00: 297122 items, 20894 KB keys + 306860 KB data, 70 B + 1032 B avg, 103237 B max

...
Total 1947412 items, 151268 KB keys + 337485 KB data.
```

This PR does two things, because one lead to the other:
- Move the leveldb specific stuff into a small "backend" package that
defines a backend interface and the leveldb implementation. This allows,
potentially, in the future, switching the db implementation so another
KV store should we wish to do so.
- Add proper error handling all along the way. The db and backend
packages are now errcheck clean. However, I drew the line at modifying
the FileSet API in order to keep this manageable and not continue
refactoring all of the rest of Syncthing. As such, the FileSet methods
still panic on database errors, except for the "database is closed"
error which is instead handled by silently returning as quickly as
possible, with the assumption that we're anyway "on the way out".
