Back-end API for Container Server REST APIs¶

Pluggable Back-ends for Container Server

class swift.container.backend.ContainerBroker(db_file, timeout=25, logger=None, account=None, container=None, pending_timeout=None, stale_reads_ok=False, skip_commits=False, force_db_file=False)

Encapsulates working with a container database.

Note that this may involve multiple on-disk DB files if the container becomes sharded:

• _db_file is the path to the legacy container DB name, i.e. <hash>.db. This file should exist for an initialised broker that has never been sharded, but will not exist once a container has been sharded.
• db_files is a list of existing db files for the broker. This list should have at least one entry for an initialised broker, and should have two entries while a broker is in SHARDING state.
• db_file is the path to whichever db is currently authoritative for the container. Depending on the container’s state, this may not be the same as the db_file argument given to __init__(), unless force_db_file is True in which case db_file is always equal to the db_file argument given to __init__().
• pending_file is always equal to _db_file extended with .pending, i.e. <hash>.db.pending.

classmethod create_broker(device_path, part, account, container, logger=None, epoch=None, put_timestamp=None, storage_policy_index=None)

Create a ContainerBroker instance. If the db doesn’t exist, initialize the db file.

Returns:	a swift.container.backend.ContainerBroker instance

create_container_info_table(conn, put_timestamp, storage_policy_index)

Create the container_info table which is specific to the container DB. Not a part of Pluggable Back-ends, internal to the baseline code. Also creates the container_stat view.

Parameters:	conn – DB connection object put_timestamp – put timestamp storage_policy_index – storage policy index

create_object_table(conn)

Create the object table which is specific to the container DB. Not a part of Pluggable Back-ends, internal to the baseline code.

Parameters:	conn – DB connection object

create_policy_stat_table(conn, storage_policy_index=0)

Create policy_stat table.

Parameters:	conn – DB connection object storage_policy_index – the policy_index the container is being created with

create_shard_range_table(conn)

Create the shard_range table which is specific to the container DB.

Parameters:	conn – DB connection object

db_file

Get the path to the primary db file for this broker. This is typically the db file for the most recent sharding epoch. However, if no db files exist on disk, or if force_db_file was True when the broker was constructed, then the primary db file is the file passed to the broker constructor.

Returns:	A path to a db file; the file does not necessarily exist.

db_files

Gets the cached list of valid db files that exist on disk for this broker.

The cached list may be refreshed by calling

reload_db_files().

Returns:	A list of paths to db files ordered by ascending epoch; the list may be empty.

delete_object(name, timestamp, storage_policy_index=0)

Mark an object deleted.

Parameters:	name – object name to be deleted timestamp – timestamp when the object was marked as deleted storage_policy_index – the storage policy index for the object

empty()

Check if container DB is empty.

This method uses more stringent checks on object count than is_deleted(): this method checks that there are no objects in any policy; if the container is in the process of sharding then both fresh and retiring databases are checked to be empty; if a root container has shard ranges then they are checked to be empty.

Returns:	True if the database has no active objects, False otherwise

enable_sharding(epoch)

Updates this broker’s own shard range with the given epoch, sets its state to SHARDING and persists it in the DB.

Parameters:	epoch – a Timestamp
Returns:	the broker’s updated own shard range.

find_shard_ranges(shard_size, limit=-1, existing_ranges=None)

Scans the container db for shard ranges. Scanning will start at the upper bound of the any existing_ranges that are given, otherwise at ShardRange.MIN. Scanning will stop when limit shard ranges have been found or when no more shard ranges can be found. In the latter case, the upper bound of the final shard range will be equal to the upper bound of the container namespace.

This method does not modify the state of the db; callers are responsible for persisting any shard range data in the db.

Parameters:	shard_size – the size of each shard range limit – the maximum number of shard points to be found; a negative value (default) implies no limit. existing_ranges – an optional list of existing ShardRanges; if given, this list should be sorted in order of upper bounds; the scan for new shard ranges will start at the upper bound of the last existing ShardRange.
Returns:	a tuple; the first value in the tuple is a list of dicts each having keys {‘index’, ‘lower’, ‘upper’, ‘object_count’} in order of ascending ‘upper’; the second value in the tuple is a boolean which is True if the last shard range has been found, False otherwise.

get_all_shard_range_data()

Return a list of brokers for component dbs. The list has two entries while the db state is sharding: the first entry is a broker for the retiring db with skip_commits set to True; the second entry is a broker for the fresh db with skip_commits set to False. For any other db state the list has one entry.

Returns:	a list of ContainerBroker

get_db_state()

Returns the current state of on disk db files.

get_info()

Get global data for the container.

Returns:	dict with keys: account, container, created_at, put_timestamp, delete_timestamp, status_changed_at, object_count, bytes_used, reported_put_timestamp, reported_delete_timestamp, reported_object_count, reported_bytes_used, hash, id, x_container_sync_point1, x_container_sync_point2, and storage_policy_index, db_state.

get_info_is_deleted()

Returns:	a tuple, in the form (info, is_deleted) info is a dict as returned by get_info and is_deleted is a boolean.

get_misplaced_since(start, count)

Get a list of objects which are in a storage policy different from the container’s storage policy.

Parameters:	start – last reconciler sync point count – maximum number of entries to get

Returns:

a list of dicts, each describing an object.

get_own_shard_range(no_default=False)

Returns a shard range representing this broker’s own shard range. If no such range has been persisted in the broker’s shard ranges table then a default shard range representing the entire namespace will be returned.

The returned shard range will be updated with the current object stats for this broker and a meta timestamp set to the current time. For these values to be persisted the caller must merge the shard range.

Parameters:	no_default – if True and the broker’s own shard range is not found in the shard ranges table then None is returned, otherwise a default shard range is returned.
Returns:	an instance of ShardRange

get_replication_info()

Get information about the DB required for replication.

Returns:	dict containing keys from get_info plus max_row and metadata

Note:: get_info’s <db_contains_type>_count is translated to just

“count” and metadata is the raw string.

If True, that row is included, otherwise it is not included. Default is False. exclude_others – boolean that governs whether the rows whose names do not match the broker’s path are included in the returned list. If True, those rows are not included, otherwise they are included. Default is False. fill_gaps – if True, insert own shard range to fill any gaps in at the tail of other shard ranges.

Back-end API for Object Server REST APIs¶

Disk File Interface for the Swift Object Server

The DiskFile, DiskFileWriter and DiskFileReader classes combined define the on-disk abstraction layer for supporting the object server REST API interfaces (excluding REPLICATE). Other implementations wishing to provide an alternative backend for the object server must implement the three classes. An example alternative implementation can be found in the mem_server.py and mem_diskfile.py modules along size this one.

The DiskFileManager is a reference implemenation specific class and is not part of the backend API.

The remaining methods in this module are considered implementation specific and are also not considered part of the backend API.

class swift.obj.diskfile.AuditLocation(path, device, partition, policy)

Represents an object location to be audited.

Other than being a bucket of data, the only useful thing this does is stringify to a filesystem path so the auditor’s logs look okay.

class swift.obj.diskfile.BaseDiskFile(mgr, device_path, partition, account=None, container=None, obj=None, _datadir=None, policy=None, use_splice=False, pipe_size=None, use_linkat=False, open_expired=False, next_part_power=None, **kwargs)

Manage object files.

This specific implementation manages object files on a disk formatted with a POSIX-compliant file system that supports extended attributes as metadata on a file or directory.

Note

The arguments to the constructor are considered implementation specific. The API does not define the constructor arguments.

The following path format is used for data file locations: <devices_path/<device_dir>/<datadir>/<partdir>/<suffixdir>/<hashdir>/ <datafile>.<ext>

Parameters:

mgr – associated DiskFileManager instance device_path – path to the target device or drive partition – partition on the device in which the object lives account – account name for the object container – container name for the object obj – object name for the object _datadir – override the full datadir otherwise constructed here policy – the StoragePolicy instance use_splice – if true, use zero-copy splice() to send data pipe_size – size of pipe buffer used in zero-copy operations use_linkat – if True, use open() with linkat() to create obj file open_expired – if True, open() will not raise a DiskFileExpired if object is expired next_part_power – the next partition power to be used

create(size=None)

Context manager to create a file. We create a temporary file first, and then return a DiskFileWriter object to encapsulate the state.

Note

An implementation is not required to perform on-disk preallocations even if the parameter is specified. But if it does and it fails, it must raise a DiskFileNoSpace exception.

Parameters:	size – optional initial size of file to explicitly allocate on disk
Raises:	DiskFileNoSpace – if a size is specified and allocation fails

delete(timestamp)

Delete the object.

This implementation creates a tombstone file using the given timestamp, and removes any older versions of the object file. Any file that has an older timestamp than timestamp will be deleted.

Note

An implementation is free to use or ignore the timestamp parameter.

Parameters:	timestamp – timestamp to compare with each file
Raises:	DiskFileError – this implementation will raise the same errors as the create() method.

durable_timestamp

Provides the timestamp of the newest data file found in the object directory.

Returns:	A Timestamp instance, or None if no data file was found.
Raises:	DiskFileNotOpen – if the open() method has not been previously called on this instance.

get_datafile_metadata()

Provide the datafile metadata for a previously opened object as a dictionary. This is metadata that was included when the object was first PUT, and does not include metadata set by any subsequent POST.

Returns:	object’s datafile metadata dictionary
Raises:	DiskFileNotOpen – if the swift.obj.diskfile.DiskFile.open() method was not previously invoked

get_metadata()

Provide the metadata for a previously opened object as a dictionary.

Returns:	object’s metadata dictionary
Raises:	DiskFileNotOpen – if the swift.obj.diskfile.DiskFile.open() method was not previously invoked

get_metafile_metadata()

Provide the metafile metadata for a previously opened object as a dictionary. This is metadata that was written by a POST and does not include any persistent metadata that was set by the original PUT.

Returns:	object’s .meta file metadata dictionary, or None if there is no .meta file
Raises:	DiskFileNotOpen – if the swift.obj.diskfile.DiskFile.open() method was not previously invoked

open(modernize=False, current_time=None)

Open the object.

This implementation opens the data file representing the object, reads the associated metadata in the extended attributes, additionally combining metadata from fast-POST .meta files.

Parameters:	modernize – if set, update this diskfile to the latest format. Currently, this means adding metadata checksums if none are present. current_time – Unix time used in checking expiration. If not present, the current time will be used.

Note

An implementation is allowed to raise any of the following exceptions, but is only required to raise DiskFileNotExist when the object representation does not exist.

Raises:	DiskFileCollision – on name mis-match with metadata DiskFileNotExist – if the object does not exist DiskFileDeleted – if the object was previously deleted DiskFileQuarantined – if while reading metadata of the file some data did pass cross checks
Returns:	itself for use as a context manager

read_metadata(current_time=None)

Return the metadata for an object without requiring the caller to open the object first.

Parameters:	current_time – Unix time used in checking expiration. If not present, the current time will be used.
Returns:	metadata dictionary for an object
Raises:	DiskFileError – this implementation will raise the same errors as the open() method.

reader(keep_cache=False, _quarantine_hook=<function BaseDiskFile.<lambda>>)

Return a swift.common.swob.Response class compatible “app_iter” object as defined by swift.obj.diskfile.DiskFileReader.

For this implementation, the responsibility of closing the open file is passed to the swift.obj.diskfile.DiskFileReader object.

Parameters:	keep_cache – caller’s preference for keeping data read in the OS buffer cache _quarantine_hook – 1-arg callable called when obj quarantined; the arg is the reason for quarantine. Default is to ignore it. Not needed by the REST layer.
Returns:	a swift.obj.diskfile.DiskFileReader object

write_metadata(metadata)

Write a block of metadata to an object without requiring the caller to create the object first. Supports fast-POST behavior semantics.

Parameters:	metadata – dictionary of metadata to be associated with the object
Raises:	DiskFileError – this implementation will raise the same errors as the create() method.

class swift.obj.diskfile.BaseDiskFileManager(conf, logger)

Management class for devices, providing common place for shared parameters and methods not provided by the DiskFile class (which primarily services the object server REST API layer).

The get_diskfile() method is how this implementation creates a DiskFile object.

Note

This class is reference implementation specific and not part of the pluggable on-disk backend API.

Note

TODO(portante): Not sure what the right name to recommend here, as “manager” seemed generic enough, though suggestions are welcome.

Parameters:	conf – caller provided configuration object logger – caller provided logger

cleanup_ondisk_files(hsh_path, **kwargs)

Parameters:	device – name of target device
Returns:	full path to the device

get_dev_path(device, mount_check=None)

Return the path to a device, first checking to see if either it is a proper mount point, or at least a directory depending on the mount_check configuration option.

Parameters:	device – name of target device mount_check – whether or not to check mountedness of device. Defaults to bool(self.mount_check).
Returns:	full path to the device, None if the path to the device is not a proper mount point or directory.

get_diskfile(device, partition, account, container, obj, policy, **kwargs)

Returns a BaseDiskFile instance for an object based on the object’s partition, path parts and policy.

Parameters:	device – name of target device partition – partition on device in which the object lives account – account name for the object container – container name for the object obj – object name for the object policy – the StoragePolicy instance

get_diskfile_from_audit_location(audit_location)

Parameters:	audit_location – object location to be audited

get_diskfile_from_hash(device, partition, object_hash, policy, **kwargs)

Returns a DiskFile instance for an object at the given object_hash. Just in case someone thinks of refactoring, be sure DiskFileDeleted is not raised, but the DiskFile instance representing the tombstoned object is returned instead.

Parameters:	device – name of target device partition – partition on the device in which the object lives object_hash – the hash of an object path policy – the StoragePolicy instance
Raises:	DiskFileNotExist – if the object does not exist
Returns:	an instance of BaseDiskFile

get_ondisk_files(files, datadir, verify=True, **kwargs)

Given a simple list of files names, determine the files that constitute a valid fileset i.e. a set of files that defines the state of an object, and determine the files that are obsolete and could be deleted. Note that some files may fall into neither category.

If a file is considered part of a valid fileset then its info dict will be added to the results dict, keyed by <extension>_info. Any files that are no longer required will have their info dicts added to a list stored under the key ‘obsolete’.

The results dict will always contain entries with keys ‘ts_file’, ‘data_file’ and ‘meta_file’. Their values will be the fully qualified path to a file of the corresponding type if there is such a file in the valid fileset, or None.

Parameters:

files – a list of file names. datadir – directory name files are from. verify – if True verify that the ondisk file contract has not been violated, otherwise do not verify.

Returns:	a dict, with keys for timestamp, ext and ctype_timestamp: timestamp is a Timestamp ctype_timestamp is a Timestamp or None for .meta files, otherwise None ext is a string, the file extension including the leading dot or the empty string if the filename has no extension. Subclasses may override this method to add further keys to the returned dict.
Raises:	DiskFileError – if any part of the filename is not able to be validated.

pickle_async_update(device, account, container, obj, data, timestamp, policy)

Write data describing a container update notification to a pickle file in the async_pending directory.

Parameters:	device – name of target device account – account name for the object container – container name for the object obj – object name for the object data – update data to be written to pickle file timestamp – a Timestamp policy – the StoragePolicy instance

replication_lock(device)

A context manager that will lock on the device given, if configured to do so.

Parameters:	device – name of target device
Raises:	ReplicationLockTimeout – If the lock on the device cannot be granted within the configured timeout.

yield_hashes(device, partition, policy, suffixes=None, **kwargs)

Yields tuples of (hash_only, timestamps) for object information stored for the given device, partition, and (optionally) suffixes. If suffixes is None, all stored suffixes will be searched for object hashes. Note that if suffixes is not None but empty, such as [], then nothing will be yielded.

timestamps is a dict which may contain items mapping:

• ts_data -> timestamp of data or tombstone file,
• ts_meta -> timestamp of meta file, if one exists

• ts_ctype -> timestamp of meta file containing most recent

  content-type value, if one exists

where timestamps are instances of Timestamp

Parameters:	device – name of target device partition – partition name policy – the StoragePolicy instance suffixes – optional list of suffix directories to be searched

yield_suffixes(device, partition, policy)

Yields tuples of (full_path, suffix_only) for suffixes stored on the given device and partition.

Parameters:	device – name of target device partition – partition name policy – the StoragePolicy instance

class swift.obj.diskfile.BaseDiskFileReader(fp, data_file, obj_size, etag, disk_chunk_size, keep_cache_size, device_path, logger, quarantine_hook, use_splice, pipe_size, diskfile, keep_cache=False)

Encapsulation of the WSGI read context for servicing GET REST API requests. Serves as the context manager object for the swift.obj.diskfile.DiskFile class’s swift.obj.diskfile.DiskFile.reader() method.

Note

The quarantining behavior of this method is considered implementation specific, and is not required of the API.

Note

The arguments to the constructor are considered implementation specific. The API does not define the constructor arguments.

Parameters:

fp – open file object pointer reference data_file – on-disk data file name for the object obj_size – verified on-disk size of the object etag – expected metadata etag value for entire file disk_chunk_size – size of reads from disk in bytes keep_cache_size – maximum object size that will be kept in cache device_path – on-disk device path, used when quarantining an obj logger – logger caller wants this object to use quarantine_hook – 1-arg callable called w/reason when quarantined use_splice – if true, use zero-copy splice() to send data pipe_size – size of pipe buffer used in zero-copy operations diskfile – the diskfile creating this DiskFileReader instance keep_cache – should resulting reads be kept in the buffer cache

app_iter_range(start, stop)

Returns an iterator over the data file for range (start, stop)

app_iter_ranges(ranges, content_type, boundary, size)

Returns an iterator over the data file for a set of ranges

close()

Close the open file handle if present.

For this specific implementation, this method will handle quarantining the file if necessary.

zero_copy_send(wsockfd)

Does some magic with splice() and tee() to move stuff from disk to network without ever touching userspace.

Parameters:	wsockfd – file descriptor (integer) of the socket out which to send data

class swift.obj.diskfile.BaseDiskFileWriter(name, datadir, fd, tmppath, bytes_per_sync, diskfile, next_part_power)

Encapsulation of the write context for servicing PUT REST API requests. Serves as the context manager object for the swift.obj.diskfile.DiskFile class’s swift.obj.diskfile.DiskFile.create() method.

Note

It is the responsibility of the swift.obj.diskfile.DiskFile.create() method context manager to close the open file descriptor.

Note

The arguments to the constructor are considered implementation specific. The API does not define the constructor arguments.

Parameters:

name – name of object from REST API datadir – on-disk directory object will end up in on swift.obj.diskfile.DiskFileWriter.put() fd – open file descriptor of temporary file to receive data tmppath – full path name of the opened file descriptor bytes_per_sync – number bytes written between sync calls diskfile – the diskfile creating this DiskFileWriter instance next_part_power – the next partition power to be used

commit(timestamp)

Perform any operations necessary to mark the object as durable. For replication policy type this is a no-op.

Parameters:	timestamp – object put timestamp, an instance of Timestamp

put(metadata)

Finalize writing the file on disk.

Parameters:	metadata – dictionary of metadata to be associated with the object

write(chunk)

Write a chunk of data to disk. All invocations of this method must come before invoking the :func:

For this implementation, the data is written into a temporary file.

Parameters:	chunk – the chunk of data to write as a string object
Returns:	the total number of bytes written to an object

Provides information about all fragments that were found in the object directory, including fragments without a matching durable file, and including any fragment chosen to construct the opened diskfile.

Returns:	A dict mapping <Timestamp instance> -> <list of frag indexes>, or None if the diskfile has not been opened or no fragments were found.

purge(timestamp, frag_index)

Remove a tombstone file matching the specified timestamp or datafile matching the specified timestamp and fragment index from the object directory.

This provides the EC reconstructor/ssync process with a way to remove a tombstone or fragment from a handoff node after reverting it to its primary node.

The hash will be invalidated, and if empty or invalid the hsh_path will be removed on next cleanup_ondisk_files.

Parameters:	timestamp – the object timestamp, an instance of Timestamp frag_index – fragment archive index, must be a whole number or None.

Parameters:	filename – the file name including extension
Returns:	a dict, with keys for timestamp, frag_index, durable, ext and ctype_timestamp: timestamp is a Timestamp frag_index is an int or None ctype_timestamp is a Timestamp or None for .meta files, otherwise None ext is a string, the file extension including the leading dot or the empty string if the filename has no extension durable is a boolean that is True if the filename is a data file that includes a durable marker
Raises:	DiskFileError – if any part of the filename is not able to be validated.

validate_fragment_index(frag_index)

Return int representation of frag_index, or raise a DiskFileError if frag_index is not a whole number.

Parameters:	frag_index – a fragment archive index

Finalize put by renaming the object data file to include a durable marker. We do this for EC policy because it requires a 2-phase put commit confirmation.

Parameters:	timestamp – object put timestamp, an instance of Timestamp
Raises:	DiskFileError – if the diskfile frag_index has not been set (either during initialisation or a call to put())

put(metadata)

The only difference between this method and the replication policy DiskFileWriter method is adding the frag index to the metadata.

Parameters:	metadata – dictionary of metadata to be associated with object

swift.obj.diskfile.consolidate_hashes(partition_dir)

Take what’s in hashes.pkl and hashes.invalid, combine them, write the result back to hashes.pkl, and clear out hashes.invalid.

Parameters:	partition_dir – absolute path to partition dir containing hashes.pkl and hashes.invalid
Returns:	a dict, the suffix hashes (if any), the key ‘valid’ will be False if hashes.pkl is corrupt, cannot be read or does not exist

swift.obj.diskfile.extract_policy(obj_path)

Extracts the policy for an object (based on the name of the objects directory) given the device-relative path to the object. Returns None in the event that the path is malformed in some way.

The device-relative path is everything after the mount point; for example:

/srv/node/d42/objects-5/30/179/

485dc017205a81df3af616d917c90179/1401811134.873649.data

would have device-relative path:

objects-5/30/179/485dc017205a81df3af616d917c90179/1401811134.873649.data

Parameters:	obj_path – device-relative path of an object, or the full path
Returns:	a BaseStoragePolicy or None

swift.obj.diskfile.get_part_path(dev_path, policy, partition)

Given the device path, policy, and partition, returns the full path to the partition

swift.obj.diskfile.invalidate_hash(suffix_dir)

Invalidates the hash for a suffix_dir in the partition’s hashes file.

Parameters:	suffix_dir – absolute path to suffix dir whose hash needs invalidating

swift.obj.diskfile.object_audit_location_generator(devices, datadir, mount_check=True, logger=None, device_dirs=None, auditor_type='ALL')

Given a devices path (e.g. “/srv/node”), yield an AuditLocation for all objects stored under that directory for the given datadir (policy), if device_dirs isn’t set. If device_dirs is set, only yield AuditLocation for the objects under the entries in device_dirs. The AuditLocation only knows the path to the hash directory, not to the .data file therein (if any). This is to avoid a double listdir(hash_dir); the DiskFile object will always do one, so we don’t.

Parameters:	devices – parent directory of the devices to be audited datadir – objects directory mount_check – flag to check if a mount check should be performed on devices logger – a logger object device_dirs – a list of directories under devices to traverse auditor_type – either ALL or ZBF

swift.obj.diskfile.quarantine_renamer(device_path, corrupted_file_path)

In the case that a file is corrupted, move it to a quarantined area to allow replication to fix it.

Params device_path:
	The path to the device the corrupted file is on.
Params corrupted_file_path:
	The path to the file you want quarantined.
Returns:	path (str) of directory the file was moved to
Raises:	OSError – re-raises non errno.EEXIST / errno.ENOTEMPTY exceptions from rename

swift.obj.diskfile.read_hashes(partition_dir)

Read the existing hashes.pkl

Returns:	a dict, the suffix hashes (if any), the key ‘valid’ will be False if hashes.pkl is corrupt, cannot be read or does not exist

swift.obj.diskfile.read_metadata(fd, add_missing_checksum=False)

Helper function to read the pickled metadata from an object file.

Parameters:	fd – file descriptor or filename to load the metadata from add_missing_checksum – if set and checksum is missing, add it
Returns:	dictionary of metadata

swift.obj.diskfile.relink_paths(target_path, new_target_path, check_existing=False)

Hard-links a file located in target_path using the second path new_target_path. Creates intermediate directories if required.
