Main motivation is move towards a common backend format
for all different types of modes in MinIO, allowing for
a simpler code and predictable behavior across all features.
This PR also brings features such as versioning, replication,
transitioning to single drive setups.
The local node name is heavily used in tracing, create a new global
variable to store it. Multiple goroutines can access it since it won't be
changed later.

Gist of improvements:
* Cross-server caching and listing will use the same data across servers and requests.
* Lists can be arbitrarily resumed at a constant speed.
* Metadata for all files scanned is stored for streaming retrieval.
* The existing bloom filters controlled by the crawler is used for validating caches.
* Concurrent requests for the same data (or parts of it) will not spawn additional walkers.
* Listing a subdirectory of an existing recursive cache will use the cache.
* All listing operations are fully streamable so the number of objects in a bucket no
longer dictates the amount of memory.
* Listings can be handled by any server within the cluster.
* Caches are cleaned up when out of date or superseded by a more recent one.
- Implement a new xl.json 2.0.0 format to support,
this moves the entire marshaling logic to POSIX
layer, top layer always consumes a common FileInfo
construct which simplifies the metadata reads.
- Implement list object versions
- Migrate to siphash from crchash for new deployments
for object placements.

When formatting a set validate if a host failure will likely lead to data loss.
While we don't know what config will be set in the future
evaluate to our best knowledge, assuming default settings.
Fixes scenario where zones are appropriately
handled, along with supporting overriding set
count. The new fix also ensures that we handle
the various setup types properly.
Update documentation to properly indicate the
behavior.

Changes in IP underneath are dynamic in replica sets
with multiple tenants, so deploying in that fashion
will not work until we wait for atleast one participatory
server to be local.
This PR also ensures that multi-tenant zone expansion also
works in replica set k8s deployments.
Introduces a new ENV `KUBERNETES_REPLICA_SET` check to call
appropriate code paths.
Fixes an issue reported by @klauspost and @vadmeste
This PR also allows users to expand their clusters
from single node XL deployment to distributed mode.
On Kubernetes/Docker setups DNS resolves inappropriately
sometimes where there are situations same endpoints with
multiple disks come online indicating either one of them
is local and some of them are not local. This situation
can never happen and its only a possibility in orchestrated
deployments with dynamic DNS. Following code ensures that we
treat if one of the endpoint says its local for a given host
it is true for all endpoints for the same host. Following code
ensures that this assumption is true and it works in all
scenarios and it is safe to assume for a given host.
This PR also adds validation such that we do not crash the
server if there are bugs in the endpoints list in dsync
initialization.
Thanks to Daniel Valdivia <hola@danielvaldivia.com> for
reproducing this, this fix is needed as part of the
https://github.com/minio/m3 project.
When checking if federation is necessary, the code compares
the SRV record stored in etcd against the list of endpoints
that the MinIO server is exposing. If there is an intersection
in this list the request is forwarded.
The SRV record includes both the host and the port, but the
intersection check previously only looked at the IP address. This
would prevent federation from working in situations where the endpoint
IP is the same for multiple MinIO servers. Some examples of where this
can occur are:
- running mulitiple copies of MinIO on the same host
- using multiple MinIO servers behind a NAT with port-forwarding
Allow server to start if one of the local nodes in docker/kubernetes setup is successfully resolved
- The rule is that we need atleast one local node to work. We dont need to resolve the
rest at that point.
- In a non-orchestrational setup, we fail if we do not have atleast one local node up
and running.
- In an orchestrational setup (docker-swarm and kubernetes), We retry with a sleep of 5
seconds until any one local node shows up.
Fixes#6995
This PR implements an object layer which
combines input erasure sets of XL layers
into a unified namespace.
This object layer extends the existing
erasure coded implementation, it is assumed
in this design that providing > 16 disks is
a static configuration as well i.e if you started
the setup with 32 disks with 4 sets 8 disks per
pack then you would need to provide 4 sets always.
Some design details and restrictions:
- Objects are distributed using consistent ordering
to a unique erasure coded layer.
- Each pack has its own dsync so locks are synchronized
properly at pack (erasure layer).
- Each pack still has a maximum of 16 disks
requirement, you can start with multiple
such sets statically.
- Static sets set of disks and cannot be
changed, there is no elastic expansion allowed.
- Static sets set of disks and cannot be
changed, there is no elastic removal allowed.
- ListObjects() across sets can be noticeably
slower since List happens on all servers,
and is merged at this sets layer.

Currently minio master requires 4 servers, we
have decided to run on a minimum of 2 servers
instead - fixes a regression from previous
releases where 3 server setups were supported.
When running `make test` in docker, two test cases cause hanging.
This Patch fixes the problem by removing those test cases.
Thanks to @ws141 for identifying the problem.
It is possible at times due to a typo when distributed mode was intended
a user might end up starting standalone erasure mode causing confusion.
Add code to check this based on some standard heuristic guess work and
report an error to the user.
