gc

Documentation

Overview

Package gc contains the functions needed to run garbage collection.

The gc.PieceTracker implements the metainfo loop Observer interface allowing us to subscribe to the loop to get information for every segment in the metainfo database.

The gc.PieceTracker handling functions are used by the gc.Service to periodically account for all existing pieces on storage nodes and create "retain requests" which contain a bloom filter of all pieces that possibly exist on a storage node.

The gc.Service will send that request to the storagenode after a full metaloop iteration, and the storage node will use that request to delete the "garbage" pieces that are not in the bloom filter.

See storj/docs/design/garbage-collection.md for more info.

}

Config contains configurable values for garbage collection

type PieceTracker

type PieceTracker struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

PieceTracker implements the metainfo loop observer interface for garbage collection

architecture: Observer

func NewPieceTracker

func NewPieceTracker(log *zap.Logger, config Config, pieceCounts map[storj.NodeID]int) *PieceTracker

NewPieceTracker instantiates a new gc piece tracker to be subscribed to the metainfo loop

func (*PieceTracker) InlineSegment

func (pieceTracker *PieceTracker) InlineSegment(ctx context.Context, path metainfo.ScopedPath, pointer *pb.Pointer) (err error)

InlineSegment returns nil because we're only doing gc for storage nodes for now

func (*PieceTracker) Object

func (pieceTracker *PieceTracker) Object(ctx context.Context, path metainfo.ScopedPath, pointer *pb.Pointer) (err error)

Object returns nil because gc does not interact with remote objects

func (*PieceTracker) RemoteSegment

func (pieceTracker *PieceTracker) RemoteSegment(ctx context.Context, path metainfo.ScopedPath, pointer *pb.Pointer) (err error)

RemoteSegment takes a remote segment found in metainfo and adds pieces to bloom filters

type RetainInfo

type RetainInfo struct {
	Filter       *bloomfilter.Filter
	CreationDate time.Time
	Count        int
}

RetainInfo contains info needed for a storage node to retain important data and delete garbage data

type Service

type Service struct {
	Loop *sync2.Cycle
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Service implements the garbage collection service

architecture: Chore

func NewService

func NewService(log *zap.Logger, config Config, dialer rpc.Dialer, overlay overlay.DB, loop *metainfo.Loop) *Service

NewService creates a new instance of the gc service

func (*Service) Run

func (service *Service) Run(ctx context.Context) (err error)

Run starts the gc loop service
