A mirror target's root is plain local storage, so the durability case's
wait for the mount passed at once after the restart. The queue wait then
read `pdfs --json status` before the new daemon listened, took its null
"mount" for an empty queue, and the run's cleanup found no control socket.
A file deleted after its create was sent keeps the op as a trash. The op
kept the create's attempts and backoff, and the drain recorded the failure
of a create attempt still on the wire on the row that was by then the trash.
The trash waited out the create's backoff.
The trash starts due, as a create that becomes a revision does, and the
drain records a failed attempt only if the op is still the kind it ran as
(`Db::record_attempt_failure`).
An upload that landed let go of its blob before the tree had its node. A
write open in between took the base it sampled at its start, the revision
the upload replaced, found none of its bytes cached, and queued an
incomplete revision; the next write open failed with EIO.
The drain keeps the landing node aside until the tree has it, and a write
open with no queued revision takes its base from that node, or from the
tree as it is when the handle goes in. The fake Drive can hold the drain
in that window (`hold_next_landing`).
A stop that came while a mirror pass was uploading let the pass go on to
the next level of folders until the stop gave up on it and the runtime's
end cancelled the uploads under it. Once the daemon is stopping, a batch
starts none of its waiting ops, lets the ones sending finish, and ends
the pass; the remote walk and a new pass stop too.
A delete of a file whose create was on the wire withdraws the create into
a trash. When its folder was removed too and that trash landed first,
Drive refused the create, and the drain re-homed the deleted file in the
root; only its missing bytes stopped it. The withdrawn create's trash
then read the trashed folder back into the cache before finding nothing
to trash.
A withdrawn create is no longer re-homed, and its trash is done once the
folder it was sent to is trashed or gone.
The hydrate rebuilt each listed folder's listing with a pass over every
entry. With 4,600 listed folders and 37,000 entries that took 1.7 s at
every start before the mount came up; one pass grouping the entries by
parent takes 3 ms.
The account run's 0-byte read of a new file was B166 too: Drive's
listing had the node from before its create was committed, and the
queue no longer held it when read. The fake Drive can now hold a
folder's listing on its way back with one file listed unrevised.
A listing from Drive was overlaid with the queue as it was after Drive
answered. A create that landed in between was in neither, and a wide
folder on Wi-Fi dropped files that were never unlinked. The queue is now
read before Drive is asked too; a node that left it meanwhile is listed
as the DB has it.
A stop joined every background thread for as long as each took. The sync
engine's mirror pass calls Drive with no deadline, and a stop that waited for
it was killed by systemd at TimeoutStopSec. The stop now waits up to 10 s for
the background threads and FUSE workers together, names any still running, and
the runtime shuts down within 2 s.
A listing from Drive overlays what is still queued for the folder. A create
Drive has made but whose answer is on its way, or which the drain is still
reading back, was in both: Drive's node under its new uid and the queue's
stand-in, under one name. A node queued in the folder now holds its name there.
A folder removed and made again met the old folder while its trash was on
the wire and adopted it, so the new folder's contents went into the old
one and were trashed with it. The twin search now skips hidden nodes, as
listings do.
The fake Drive can hold a trash (hold_next_trash).
adopt_real_uid asked whether a move was queued only after reading the
node back. A move that landed in between left no op, and the answer still
had the old name, so the mount showed the file under it. Ask first.
The fake Drive can hold a read's answer (hold_answer_to_next_read) so the
test can land the move while the answer is on its way.
Queueing a folder's create left the workers asleep until their 30 s idle
poll; every other enqueue woke them. A file's create still waits for the
release that attaches its bytes.
A lookup in the root publishes the "Shared with me" entry only if the root
listing did not change while its plan was read, and answered EAGAIN when it
had. Right after a restart the root is listed again as the first lookups come
in, so a write could fail with "Resource temporarily unavailable".
ensure_children now takes the listing again, up to four times.
B141 drops a rename that fails with a newer one queued behind it. The
worker records the failure and releases its claim in two steps, and a
rename queued between them waited behind the old one, which was kept
with a backoff. Released, the old one was not due and the new one was,
so the new one landed first and the old one then put the first name
back.
Releasing the claim now drops the old rename too when a newer one is
queued, and both checks match the node by local id as well as by uid.
When the read-back after an upload went unanswered, the drain let go of
the staged blob without caching it. A partial write opened next had
nothing to fill its gaps from and queued an incomplete revision, so the
write open after it was refused with EIO.
The bytes are now cached under the size and mtime the tree still has,
which is the base the next write takes. Their SHA-1 stands in for the
revision id the read-back did not bring, so that write chains onto the
upload and does not fork a conflict copy of itself.
A file or folder made on the mount used to get a minted `local~<ms>-<n>`
placeholder. It now gets `local~<lid>`, a function of the row it is given
first (`Db::add_local_row`), so the stand-in never changes and always leads
back to the row, and through it to the real uid once the node lands.
`Db::lid_of` reads it without a lookup.
Migration V41 rewrites the placeholders still stored to their row's
stand-in: the row and its node_json, its children, the ops on it or into
it (uid, parent, sidecar uid, a rename's original parent), and its pins.
Step 6a of the plan for 3.0.0 phase 3.
B154 is a regression from the B153 fix: after a failure on a held name the
op woke the ops waiting for it, but the database cannot see a create on the
wire, so the op was due again at once and spent its waits in milliseconds.
No wake while another create on the wire holds the name.
B155: a revision upload that reached Drive but lost its answer left the
file at a revision this daemon never heard of, and the retry kept the write
as a conflict copy of itself. A complete write whose bytes the remote holds,
by size and SHA-1, is sent again instead.
The fake Drive gains hold_reply_to_next_create and
lose_reply_to_next_revision for the two new sim tests.
Adoption asks again under the tree lock whether a rename is queued, and
writes the node row through the lock's outbox, so a rename made while
the create landed is no longer undone in the tree and the row.
An op that finds its name held fails as NameHeld: it backs off by the
minimum without doubling, and wakes the waiters for its name again once
its failure is recorded, so a trash that landed in between is not missed.
A retried create now adopts the file its lost answer made when Drive's
SHA-1 matches the staged blob, not only when the file is empty. A delete
after a sent create keeps the op as a trash that finds and trashes the
node that create may have made; a new create of that name waits for it.
The simulation's settle now reads the log, so known damage is explained.
With changes through the mount queued, `pdfs rename` and `pdfs move` went
straight to Drive ahead of a rename the mount still had queued, which then
landed and put its name back: the account run's B121 case on every on-demand
mount. They are now queued whenever the mount would queue, or the node has
anything queued, and rewrite a still-queued create's target.
The B113 acceptance case no longer requires creates to reach Drive at once;
under local-first they are queued and the moves rewrite them.
Schema 40 adds nodes.parent_lid, backfilled from parent_uid. An upsert
and a new row's stub keep it in step, a folder's new row links the rows
stored before it, and a row merged into a landing folder hands its
children over. A restart places each node under its parent's row as it
is now, so a child whose stored node still names a landed folder's
placeholder lands under the folder's real uid.
Schema 39 adds pending_op.lid and parent_lid, backfilled from nodes. Every
op queued or retargeted gets both, and a create gets its row before it
is queued. The claim reads a parent's uid through parent_lid, and a
landing folder rewrites the ops made inside it by local id instead of by
its placeholder string. Ops queued against a row Drive listed follow it
when it is merged into the landing one.
A folder pinned before its mkdir landed kept the placeholder uid in
pins.uid, which named no node once the landing moved the row to the
real uid. The landing now moves the pin with it.
create_folder, trash_nodes, the twin listing and the uploads waited on
Drive without a limit, so one call that never answered held a drain
thread for good. They now give up after INTERACTIVE_CALL_TIMEOUT, and
uploads after that plus their size at 32 KiB/s; a missed deadline reads
as RequestTimeout, so the op backs off like any lost link.
one_client_on_a_slow_link runs the Wi-Fi faults without outages and has
to drain within each settle. a_thousand_files_drain_as_fast_on_wifi_as_on_lan
times 100 folders and 1,000 files on LAN and Wi-Fi; it only prints for
now and runs when PDFS_SIM_MEASURE is set.
ssh-keyscan sometimes returns no key from the runner, which failed the
AUR publish for 2.8.0 and 2.10.0 at the fingerprint check. Retry the
scan up to five times with a longer timeout before checking the pin.
A change Drive refuses because the storage is full, access was taken away,
its folder is gone, a folder limit is reached or the change was rejected
used to look like any other failure until six attempts had passed. The
drain now sorts the refusal into an issue and stores it on the queued op
(schema 38), so it needs attention at once in the app, tray and CLI. The
change stays queued and is retried; nothing is deleted.
The queue listing carries the issue and whether the op has file content.
ExportPendingOp copies that content to a new file: the Sync page offers it
as an Export button next to each issue, and the CLI as
`pdfs sync export <id> <dest>`. `pdfs sync issues` lists what needs
attention, and `pdfs sync queue` shows the issue per change.
docs/MILESTONE-3.0.0-STATUS.md tracks what is left for 3.0.0.
A file renamed away from a.txt while its create was on the wire, and a new
a.txt made after it, could both land on the first file's node: the second
create found a fresh, empty a.txt and took it for its own unanswered create.
The first file's rename then carried the second one's bytes away.
A create now leaves alone a node that another create is making under the
same name, and one the tree already knows. It waits for the name like for
any other queued change (docs/BUGS.md B147).
- B144: when Drive says a name is taken but nothing local holds it any more,
the rename, move or create is sent once more under the wanted name before
falling back to a conflict name. The trash that freed it could land between
Drive's answer and the check.
- B145: the park sweep no longer drops a parked create whose node row is not
written yet. It waits a minute, and keeps open files, before taking a
missing row for a deleted file. The account run's B70 check failed with
EBUSY on this.
- B146: a rename queued while an upload's read-back is on the wire is kept;
the tree no longer takes back the name Drive still had.
A new folder, a new file, a rename or a delete through the mount no longer
waits for Drive: it is recorded locally, the call returns at once, and the
drain sends it as it does offline. `"local_first": false` in config.json
brings back the old path for this release.
Fixes found by the simulation runs on the way:
- B129: a file deleted while its first upload is on the wire is trashed once
the upload lands.
- B132, B140: files made in a new folder survive a restart; a landed folder
hands its queued children over in the stored node too.
- B138: a create waits for the rename or trash that frees its name.
- B139: a file closed while its first upload lands keeps its last write.
- B141: a rename a worker holds stays queued, and the newer one waits behind
it instead of racing it.
- B142: a rename of a file whose create lands meanwhile goes to the uid Drive
gave it instead of answering EBUSY.
- B143: a create whose read-back fails as the link drops is adopted before
the next op for it is sent, so its next write is not a conflict copy.
A plain rowid is the largest one plus one, so a trash queued in the same
transaction that dropped the newest op took its id. The drain retires the
op it sent by id, so a rename landing deleted the trash queued over it and
the file stayed on Drive (B137). Schema 37 rebuilds pending_op with
AUTOINCREMENT, keeping every id and index.
A dump of a database the 2.8.2 build wrote, with queued ops due, parked,
failing, deferred for access and claimed, and creates queued below a
folder made offline. Its migration checks every column of the queue and
the sealed revisions, as the real-database test now does too.
On-demand sync folders kept their own State, which the drain, the
event applier and the sweeps had to visit one by one (B74). Every mount
now serves from the primary's tree. A session keeps only its root, which
the kernel knows as inode 1, and its notification channel; work that
changes the tree tells every mounted session. Size upgrades become
daemon-wide, and moves compare mounts by root instead of by state.
An ignored test takes a copy of the database named by PDFS_MIGRATE_DB
with VACUUM INTO over a read-only connection, migrates it, and checks
that every queued op survives unchanged, every node keeps its row
number as its lid, and no node is lost or doubled.
A node's inode is now derived from its row's local id instead of a
per-run counter, so the same node keeps the same inode across restarts
and across every place that interns it. A lid handed out before the
row is stored reads as no node.
A rename of a node whose create is still queued rewrites the create's
target, but the drain had already copied the op. When the create
landed, the row was deleted unread and the rename was lost (B136).
finish_create now learns where the create was sent and where it landed,
and queues a rename of the real uid when the row has moved on since.
adopt_real_uid keeps the tree's name and folder while that rename is
queued. A landed folder's children also stop naming its placeholder as
their parent in memory, which put the placeholder back on their rows.
First step of phase 2 of docs/MILESTONE-3.0.0.md. Schema 36 rebuilds
`nodes` with `lid INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT`. Each row takes its
old rowid as its lid, so the search index, keyed by rowid, stays valid.
AUTOINCREMENT keeps a deleted row's lid from coming back. `uid` stays
unique and becomes nullable, for nodes that are not on Drive yet.
A landed create's row now takes the real uid in place, keeping its lid.
When a listing had already stored the real node, its content is kept
under the placeholder's lid, which the node was known by first.
Nothing reads the lid yet apart from `Db::lid_of`.
Found by the seeded simulation runs (docs/BUGS.md).
- B122: a rename across folders goes to Drive as one move-multiple
request, so a sibling holding the new name in the old folder no longer
fails it with EIO. The drain uses the same request.
- B123: a second write open on a file just written no longer fails with
EIO. An empty file counts as complete, our own renames, moves and
online creates record their echo, a duplicated event is skipped, a
rename keeps the file's mtime while its revision stays, and a landed
upload is cached before open handles are rebased onto it.
- B124: a node put back after a failed replacing rename leaves `hidden`
and its folder is listed again, so it shows in the mount.
- B131: a landed create is read back with the same short retry as an
online create, and its bytes are cached under the real uid before an
open handle is repointed at it.
- B135: an online rename settles the tree through the state guard, so
the database has both folders unlisted before the reply. A lookup
right after it no longer rebuilds the destination without the file.
The simulation runs no longer tolerate B122 or B131.
Phase 1 of docs/MILESTONE-3.0.0.md, without a change in behaviour.
- Own sealed revisions live only in the own_sealed_rev table. The
in-memory map in front of it is gone, so revision_conflict gives the
same answer before and after a restart.
- A queued rename records the node's original name next to its original
parent, and keeps both across renames that replace the row. The drain
logs when Drive has the node neither where the rename found it nor
where it takes it.
The SDK's NodeUpdated event carries no revision id, so echoes of our own
changes stay recognised by the self-change timer.
- B132: a folder whose mkdir is still queued is gone after a restart.
The root's listing, served offline, was invalidated when the link
came back, and the restart listed it on Drive without the queued
folder.
- B133: a file deleted while its upload is in flight can still come
back as a recovered copy. B105's check goes by op id, and SQLite gives
the next op queued the id the delete freed.
- B134: a file deleted online while the drain checks its write is kept
as a conflict copy. The unlink trashes the file on Drive before it
drops the queued write, so B105's check still finds the op.
The runs did not find B105 with its fix reverted. Drive lists a trash
later than the round trips take, so the drain never saw its own
client's delete while it still held the write.
The FakeDrive can now hold the next read of one node on its way to
Drive. A new profile, one-client-deletes, writes a file Drive holds,
waits for the drain to read the node back, deletes the file, and lets
the read go on once Drive shows the trash. A conflict the drain keeps
because a client's own file was trashed now fails the run as a false
conflict. With B105's fix reverted, seeds 1 and 2 fail on it.
Outside the step, such a conflict is counted as B134 when the copy is
named after the file: the drain looked after an online unlink had
trashed the file on Drive but before it dropped the write. Seed 3 of
three-clients came up with it once.
Half the time the step makes the file again before the read goes on.
That is B133: the new file's write takes the op id the delete freed,
and B105's check finds it. The runs count it.
The runs also count B132, an ENOENT after a restart that restored
queued ops, in a seed that lost the link. Seed 4 of one-client-flaky
failed on it. The known-bug matchers now also see what was logged
before the call.
The first simulation runs found ten open bugs. They are documented here
and not fixed yet, as phase 0 of docs/MILESTONE-3.0.0.md changes no
behaviour. The runs count each one and end the seed where the mount
leaves the model behind.
- B122: a rename across folders fails with EIO when the source folder
holds the new name.
- B123: a second write open on a file just written fails with EIO.
- B124: after a replacing rename fails, the file it was replacing is gone
from the mount.
- B125: a folder made offline fails with EIO once its listing is
invalidated.
- B126: a file created offline under a name an offline rename freed
lands as a conflict copy.
- B127: a file created offline lands twice when the answer to its upload
is lost.
- B128: a file created offline over one deleted offline can be lost.
- B129: a file deleted or replaced while its create is on the wire stays
on Drive.
- B130: a read of a file that a remote change invalidates can hang the
daemon. The event sync blocks a runtime worker in inval_inode on the
read's page lock. Nothing then drives the runtime's timers, which the
read's fetch is waiting for.
- B131: a write to a file whose create could not be read back lands as a
conflict copy. The create's op is retired before the read-back, so a
failed read-back leaves the tree on the placeholder's mtime and no
revision id.
A `simulation` job runs the seeded simulation runs of
docs/MILESTONE-3.0.0.md section 8.2 on pushes to main and manual runs. They
mount FUSE against the in-memory FakeDrive, so they need fuse3 but no
account. Like the acceptance suite they stay off pull requests. The job
has a 30 minute limit, and the runs' own watchdog turns a hang into a
failed seed well inside it.
The second half of the simulation harness in docs/MILESTONE-3.0.0.md
section 8.2. A run starts one or more real FUSE daemons on a shared
FakeDrive. Each client owns a folder `c<n>` that only it writes. A seed
then draws syscalls through the mounts, link flaps, restarts, pauses and
settles. Every syscall is checked against a model of the client's tree as
it happens. After the last step every link comes up and the run checks
no loss, POSIX behaviour, no false conflicts, convergence and liveness.
- sim::model is the POSIX model: the tree, what each call should answer,
and how it changes the tree.
- sim::run has the profiles: one client on a good link, one on a flaky
link with flaps and restarts, and three clients. PDFS_SIM_SEEDS sets
how many seeds each runs, and PDFS_SIM_SEED replays one.
- sim::watchdog catches a call that never returns. It takes every
thread's stack in the process, since no tracer can stop a thread
blocked on a FUSE request. It then aborts the run's FUSE connections
and writes the stacks next to the run's state.
- The daemons' logs at INFO and above are kept, so a known open bug is
told apart from a new failure. Known bugs are counted, and the seed ends
where the mount leaves the model behind. PDFS_SIM_KNOWN=fail fails on
them instead.
- A restart retries opening the database while the last run still holds
it.
- The FakeDrive restamps a node's modification time on a rename or move,
as Drive does (B113).
The runs mount FUSE, so they are ignored by default. Run them with
`cargo test -p pdfs-fuse --lib sim:: -- --ignored --test-threads=1`.
Test-only; no behaviour change.
mount() becomes a thin wrapper over mount_with(), which takes the
DriveApi to reach Drive through and a Host. The daemon's Host is
unchanged: stopped by SIGTERM or SIGINT, installed at the same point as
before, and indexing the user's home. A simulated daemon is stopped over
a channel and skips the home index, so several can share one test
process without walking the developer's home.
The account quota moves onto DriveApi. It was the only call outside the
trait that marks the link lost, so a simulated daemon would have gone
offline on it; the FakeDrive now also models a full account
(InsufficientQuota).
sim::daemon starts one daemon on its own state directory with a real
FUSE mount, and a smoke test (ignored; needs /dev/fuse) checks a local
write lands, a remote write arrives, and a write made offline lands once
the link is back.
The first half of the simulation harness in docs/MILESTONE-3.0.0.md
section 8.1. FakeDrive is one shared server; each simulated daemon reaches
it through a FakeClient that implements DriveApi and carries its own link
state, latency, faults and an SDK-style entity cache.
The faults are the ones the account runs met: listings that lag (B118,
B48), renames and moves refused for a stale name hash because the cache
is only emptied by events (B111, B121), names that refuse a replace (B13,
B104, B106), events delayed, duplicated, reordered and echoed (B70, B105),
requests that stall, fail, or change Drive and lose their reply (B107,
B121), and non-uniform block sizes (B84, B85, B87).
Test-only; no behaviour change.
`Core` held a concrete `ProtonDriveClient`, so no test could make Drive
answer late, answer stale or not answer. This is the first step of
phase 0 in docs/MILESTONE-3.0.0.md.
`DriveApi` (`crates/pdfs-fuse/src/drive.rs`) covers the calls the sync
core makes: listings, events, creates, uploads, downloads, renames,
moves, trashes and restores. `ProtonDriveClient` implements it by
forwarding. `Core::drive` holds it, and every call of those methods now
goes through it. Sharing, Photos, devices, invitations and public links
stay on `Core::client`.
The trait takes readers and writers as trait objects, and
`impl dyn DriveApi` puts the client's generic signatures back, so call
sites read the same. Block reads go through `RevisionRead` instead of
the SDK's `RevisionReader`, which only the SDK can construct.
No behaviour change.
The drain retired an upload's op first, and only then read the node back
and linked the staged blob into the content cache. For that one round
trip, the status reported an empty queue for a file that wasn't cached
yet, so anything that waited for an empty queue before reading the file
could still need the network. The account run of 2026-10-03 hit it over
a slow link: "regression B119" failed in the same second the upload
landed.
`Core::landing_uploads` now counts an upload from just before its op is
retired until its bytes are cached. The status adds it to
`pending_uploads`, and reads the queue before the count, so it always
sees the upload in one of them. A drop guard uncounts it on every exit
path.
The op still goes first. An op restored after a crash would re-send a
revision this daemon hasn't recorded as its own yet, and
`revision_conflict` would keep it as a conflict copy of the user's file.
The SDK caches each node, including the name hash it sends with the next
rename or move, and only an event evicts it. Renames and moves didn't
update that copy. So after a rename, the next change to the same node
went out with the old name hash, Drive refused it as out of date (422),
and the retry kept sending the stale hash until the event feed came
round, up to 10 seconds later.
- Every remote rename and move goes through `Core::rename_remote` or
`Core::move_remote`. Both drop the SDK's copy of the node after a
successful change and before each out-of-date retry, so the retry
sends the current hash.
- A plain move was not retried at all, so a move right after a rename
failed with EIO through the mount and with "out of date" from
`pdfs move`. It now retries like a rename.
- The drain's combined move-and-rename also drops the SDK's copy once
it lands.
- A rename that also changes folders through the mount replies only
once both halves have landed. When the move fails, the file keeps
its new name in the source folder, the tree is told so, and the
rename reports EIO. A dropped link still queues the change.
B111's cause in docs/BUGS.md is corrected to the same SDK cache. The
acceptance case "regression B121" renames and moves a file at once
through the mount and through `pdfs`, and checks names and bytes.
New live cases:
- regression B48, B80, B94, B95, B98, B102 and B111 replay the bugs
their entries describe. B48 and B111 also run against the reference.
- regression B114 to B117 replace the open B114 and B115 cases, and
fail with `check` when the bug comes back.
- regression B119: files written through the mount stay cached once
they are uploaded.
- regression B86: after a mirror folder switches to on-demand, the
mount lists what the mirror uploaded just before.
`--journal-check` also counts three warnings as errors: a conflict
copy (B113), a FUSE job held for a long time (B110) and an authority
re-read because the local tree lacked it (B117, B120).
A timeout no longer ends a target when the mount still answers a stat
and a listing. Cases that make many round trips get twice the limit.
A write is queued when the kernel releases the file, after close(2)
has returned, so cases now wait for the ops they expect
(`Daemon.queued`). "regression B102" saw one revision of two because
it read the queue once.
On flaky Wi-Fi, the run crashed twice on a read that the daemon
correctly failed with EIO once its read budget ran out. The end-of-run
read-back and the mode matrix's file checks now record a result
instead. The mode matrix tries such a read once more after the daemon
is back online, and notes it.
- B114: `pdfs rm`, `pdfs rename` and `pdfs move` tell each kernel
session that the old name is gone, so it stops resolving at once
instead of for up to 30 seconds (`Core::forget_everywhere`,
`Core::relocate_everywhere`).
- B115: `pdfs ls` and the app's file browser wait up to 10 seconds for
the listing's size fetch, as `stat` does, so they show a file's real
size instead of its encrypted one.
- B116: trashing a folder also drops the creates queued in its
subfolders. A parked one stayed queued with its bytes, and a due one
would have landed in the root.
- B117: `pdfs move` and `pdfs rename` move the node in each mount
instead of forgetting it, so its queued upload keeps its path in
`pdfs sync queue` and is not put off once after the resume.
- B118: when a create or mkdir reads back nothing, the mount asks again
and then queues it as it does offline, instead of failing with ENOENT
for something Drive has made.
- B119: a landed upload keeps its staged bytes as the file's cached
content, unless it is larger than a sixteenth of the cache, so
reading a file just written does not need the network.
- B120: a landed folder's row passes to its real uid in the same
transaction, so a file queued inside it is not put off for five
seconds.
docs/BUGS.md records B117 to B120. The account run of 2026-10-03
verified B114 to B117 and B119 in My files.
New live cases:
- regression B113: files renamed and moved while sync is paused upload
without a conflict copy.
- regression B88: pdfs mkdir, rename and rm by local path, the
mount-root guard, a path outside every mount, and the refusal in a
mirrored folder.
- pdfs output into a closed pipe exits 0 and prints nothing on stderr.
- open B114 and open B115 check two bugs that are still open. While
one reproduces, its case ends as "known", which is listed but does
not fail the run.
The console output names the pdfs version, the storage and the daemon
state of each target, and prints one aligned line per case, with its
details beneath. A failed case points to its docs/BUGS.md entry. The
run ends with a summary table, the slowest cases, the known issues
and the numbered failures. A queue wait now fails at once on a parked
op instead of waiting out its timeout.
docs/BUGS.md records B114, B115 and B116, which the first live run
found, and marks B113 and B88 as verified live.
`pdfs ls | head` ended in a "Broken pipe" panic once `head` had its
lines, because std's `println!` panics on a failed write.
The CLI now shadows `println!` and `print!` with versions that exit 0 on
a closed pipe and report any other write error, such as a full disk,
with exit 1. Restoring the default SIGPIPE would also stop the panic,
but the same binary runs the daemon, which must not die when a socket's
peer goes away.
`pdfs rm ~/Downloads/x` answered "is not under the mountpoint" while
`pdfs move` took the same path: the Delete, Rename and CreateFolder
handlers still read paths against the primary mount only (B88).
They now go through `route_change`, the router ResolveConflict already
used, renamed from `route_conflict`. It answers the request in the
inode space of the mount that owns the path.
An on-demand folder's root has a parent on Drive, so `pdfs rm
~/Downloads` would have trashed the whole synced folder from under its
mount. rm and rename refuse a path that names a mount's root.
The write handle a create opens was given no revision id, so the drain's
conflict check fell back to (mtime, size). Drive advances a node's mtime
on a move or rename, so a new file moved before its first upload drained
landed as a (sync-conflict) copy next to its own empty original. Take the
minted node's revision id, and rebase handles still open on a queued
create onto the node it landed as (B113).
makepkg reuses a cached source file of the same name, so the unversioned
proton-drive.service from an older build failed the 2.8.2 checksum. Carry
$pkgver in every file fetched from the tagged tree, like LICENSE already
did, and bump pkgrel to 2.
0.7.2 resolves each shared root with its own key. With 0.7.1, when
several accepted shares came from the same owner's volume, only the first
appeared under Shared with me and the rest were skipped with "missing
key" (B112, proton-sdk-rs#2).
default.target is reached before the desktop exports DISPLAY/WAYLAND_DISPLAY
to the user manager, so After=graphical-session.target never applied. The
daemon's first keyring call D-Bus-activated the Secret Service without a
display; on KDE ksecretd aborted, the first start failed, and every login
left a coredump.
Install into graphical-session.target instead, and use reenable when the
front-ends enable the unit so existing default.target.wants links are
replaced rather than kept alongside the new one.
Fixes#23
73e60f1 pointed url at proton-drive.narl.io, and all three AUR PKGBUILDs
built their source URLs from $url, so the release tarball, the binary
archive and the git clone were fetched from the homepage and 404ed. The
sources now come from a separate _repo on GitHub; url stays the homepage.
"pending upload landed" now carries upload_ms, the time on the wire, and
total_ms, the whole op including the conflict check and gap-fill. A slow
drain then shows where its time goes without a profiler.
The mount only ever went from offline to online: nothing marked it
offline again, so after the Wi-Fi dropped every create, mkdir, delete and
rename called Drive, waited out the SDK's retries for up to two minutes
and answered EIO. Background loops kept polling the dead link.
Connectivity now lives in pdfs-fuse's new link module and goes both
ways. A call that gets no answer (a transport error or a request
timeout) marks the mount offline; a probe thread checks every 2 s,
backing off to 30 s, and on recovery re-lists folders served from the
database, retries failed operations and wakes the drain. Interactive
calls get a 20 s deadline, so a dead link costs one slow call instead of
many.
While offline:
- create, mkdir, unlink, rmdir and rename fall back to the offline
queue instead of answering EIO;
- folders list from the database even when not marked listed, and are
re-listed once the link returns;
- reads of uncached data wait up to 30 s for the link, then retry once
within the 120 s read deadline;
- statfs serves the last quota instead of fetching, and quota refreshes
are single-flight;
- the event and photo event loops wait for the link instead of polling.
A create whose request timed out may have landed anyway. When the drain
replays it and finds a same-named twin of the same kind, created within
the last two minutes and still empty, it adopts that node instead of
making a conflict copy. The drain also leaves alone a name still held
by a queued trash.
0.7.1 sends TCP keepalives on its connections, so a link that dies
silently is noticed instead of leaving a request waiting on a dead
socket until its timeout.
A create that answered ENOENT left no trace in the log. It now warns
when the parent folder is no longer known, and when the parent left the
tree while its children were being listed, naming the parent inode and
the new name.
The acceptance script's metadata throughput floor was 20 operations per
second, which a FUSE mount cannot reach: each create and unlink waits for
Drive before it returns, about 350 ms apiece. On a FUSE mount the floor
is now 3 operations per second; other paths keep 20. The mount type is
read from /proc/self/mountinfo.
A read that settles a provisional size invalidated the file's page cache
while the kernel held that read's page lock, so the worker waited on
itself forever (B110). Size upgrades now invalidate attributes only.
Renaming a node right after renaming it could be refused by Drive as out
of date, because the name hash read just before still held the old name.
Every remote rename now goes through Core::rename_remote, which retries
InvalidRequirements for up to ten seconds (B111).
B109: an online create seals an empty file on Drive, and until the last
close the written bytes live only in the open handle. A re-listing of
the parent, a size upgrade or a create landing re-interned the node with
Drive's empty size, the kernel capped reads at that size, and SQLite
reported "database disk image is malformed". State::keep_open_write_size
now carries the handle's size and local mtime over in all three places.
The acceptance script waits for My files to mount after a daemon restart
instead of failing at once.
Fixes from the account acceptance runs:
- B104: a reader open across a rename-over keeps working; the replaced
node is unlinked like any other open file instead of forgotten.
- B105: a drain worker holding a revision withdrawn by an unlink no
longer uploads it as a recovered-… conflict copy (Db::op_exists).
- B106: an open victim's queued ops are withdrawn at trash time, so a
repeated editor save no longer fails with AlreadyExists; the staged
blob goes with the last close.
- B107: a remote read gives up after 120 s with EIO instead of hanging
its caller; the timer is built inside the runtime.
- B108: a mirror upload whose local file was deleted after the scan is
skipped rather than counted as an error.
The acceptance script reports the failing line for non-assert errors,
ignores queue ops that predate the run, purges with delete-forever
first, and diagnoses a malformed SQLite database against a local replay.
The FUSE acceptance suite now runs on the signed-in account by default and
cleans up after itself; its first live runs found three daemon bugs.
- B101: a pwrite past EOF now authors the hole it leaves, so truncated bytes
no longer come back from the base. A write attached to a create while that
create uploads becomes a revision of the real uid instead of being dropped.
- B102: removing a folder drops the queued revisions of files below it, found
through the node tree, with their blobs and in-flight uploads. `pdfs rm`
now drops queued ops too.
- B103: each server call of a trash refresh times out after 120 s, so one hung
call can no longer freeze the trash listing until restart.
Acceptance suite: account mode with a manifest, lock and reaper; cleanup by
uid; queued ops naming a test root count as leftovers; new edge-case,
throughput and B100/B101 cases; the wide-directory case is split from the
deep tree and gets a doubled budget. Adds `pdfs trash --json`.
A file listed by the cheap enumeration reports its ciphertext size until
the size upgrade lands. Since B84 a read on that size fails with EIO, and
a write open started its handle at it. Reads and write opens now fetch
the real size first. A folder past the size-upgrade cap is queued instead
of dropped, so a large copy no longer leaves most folders provisional
(B100).
The About dialog's website link, the README, and the package metadata
(Cargo, PKGBUILDs, AUR .SRCINFO, .deb, .rpm) now use the project
homepage. Source code, issue, and release links stay on GitHub.
Every managed mode pair now also moves trees between the two folders in both
directions, moves several sources in one command, and passes a tree through
My files and out again. Each case waits for Drive before and after, then
checks the tree is only at the destination, byte for byte, with no conflict
copies. Refusal cases cover a taken name, a folder into itself, a mirror
source holding a symlink, and an on-demand file still open for writing.
- A mirror download first copies the file out of the content cache when the
same revision is cached whole or block by block, so moving a file out of an
on-demand folder into a mirror costs no traffic for what was already read.
- `pdfs move a b c DEST` moves every source, reports each failure and exits
non-zero if any failed.
- Mirror-to-mirror moves rename with RENAME_NOREPLACE, so a name that
appeared at the destination after the check is never overwritten.
- The local copy a move out of a mirror drops is checked again just before
it is deleted; anything written into it meanwhile keeps the copy and is
uploaded as new by the next pass.
A move request with two absolute paths is resolved against every
location (My files, on-demand and mirror synced folders) and made as a
server-side move_node. The local side is levelled afterwards: mounts
forget and re-list, a mirror folder renames its copy and baseline along
or drops the copy once Drive holds it.
Anything only this disk holds is refused up front: queued ops, open
writes, unsynced or ignored mirror files and symlinks. The GUI Move
dialog gains a top-level list of locations.
