The upload deadline assumed at least 32 KiB/s. Under an upload cap shared
by every drain worker and sync task, a large file ran out of time on every
attempt, took the mount offline and restarted from byte 0. The deadline
now counts the upload's share of the cap as the slowest rate when that
share is lower (B231).
- A gap-filled revision blob is recorded as complete once filled, so a
retry after a lost upload answer recognises its own bytes on Drive
instead of forking a conflict copy (B228).
- Commits that accept a change into the queue run at synchronous=FULL,
so an op `close()` reported as done survives a power cut (B229).
- A queued create's adoption window starts at its first send, not when
it was queued, so a create queued offline no longer takes another
device's empty node of the same name. A send record that does not
parse is kept instead of overwritten (B230).
A read on a write handle was answered on the dispatch loop to keep its
order with the handle's writes, and when the bytes it asked for were
neither written nor cached it downloaded them there, holding every request
of the mount for up to the read deadline. The loop now answers from the
scratch file and the local caches only, and hands a read that needs a
download to a transfer worker with the handle as it was when the read came
in (B227).
Thumbnails were decoded without the EXIF orientation, so a portrait photo
stored as landscape pixels plus a tag got a sideways tile, and the drain
uploaded that thumbnail to Drive for every client to show (B226).
The prefix rule for sidecars whose names Google cut at 51 characters also
matched names that were never cut, so IMG_1.jpg's sidecar gave its title
and date to an IMG_12.jpg that had none. It now applies only to a sidecar
name at the cap. Edited copies, which have no sidecar of their own, take
their original's date by a rule of their own and keep their own name
(B225).
load_config gives defaults for a file it cannot read, and every setter
loads, changes one field and saves. The first settings change after the file
was damaged therefore wrote defaults over the mountpoint, the adopted device
and the ignore rules. save_config now refuses while the file on disk does
not parse, and the first-run default is written atomically with mode 0600
(B223).
flush answered ok at once and release synced the scratch file, but close(2)
only returns what flush answers, so a full disk at close was reported to
nobody. flush now syncs a handle with writes on a worker and returns ENOSPC,
EDQUOT or EIO; release then finds the pages on disk instead of writing a
whole file back on the dispatch loop. fsync on a descriptor opened for
reading no longer fails with EBADF (B222).
fallocate passed any mode through and tracked only a punched hole or
growth: a zeroed range came back from the remote base at commit, and a
collapse or insert corrupted the file. Unsupported modes now get EOPNOTSUPP,
zeroed ranges count as written, the real errno is returned, and the state
lock is not held across the syscall (B224).
A cold listing allocated the local id of every new child in a write
transaction while it held the global state lock, then marked the folder
listed, still under it. Every inline handler of every mount waited on that
transaction, and the transaction on the write connection the drain shares.
The ids are now allocated before the lock is taken, and the folder is marked
listed through the outbox after its children's rows, so a crash in between
no longer leaves it recorded as complete and empty (B221).
A shared folder's listing is fetched again once it is a minute old, and that
fetch ran on the dispatch loop whenever the old listing was still resident,
so every request on the mount waited for Drive (B219).
Thumbnail downloads, size upgrades and the Shared with me listing had no
deadline of their own. On a stalled link each held a mount thread for the
SDK's retry budget, and a folder of photos filled the three metadata workers
that every cold lookup and rename needs. Offline, an uncached thumbnail is
now answered as absent, and these calls give up after 20 or 60 seconds
(B220).
PRAGMA integrity_check and the row counts behind pdfs cache inspect read
the whole file, 34 s on a 567 MiB database, and they held the write
connection while they did. Every write in the daemon waited behind them.
They now read a WAL snapshot on a pooled read connection (B218).
FTS5 keeps deleted entries until their segments are merged, which with
these indexes is close to never. On one machine local_fts held 317 MiB for
40,000 paths, against 20 MiB rebuilt, and search ran four times slower. The
indexes are now compacted once a day after a local scan. A scan that hit the
entry cap or lost a batch no longer prunes the paths it never reached, which
the next scan used to add back (B217).
A database SQLite reported as corrupt at open was moved aside and replaced
by an empty one, on the grounds that everything in it is fetched again. The
queue of writes Drive has not received, the mirror baselines and the pins
are not, so they were lost. They are now copied out of the damaged file,
read only and table by table, into the new one (B216).
Five ways a mirror pass could lose files:
- A folder deleted on Drive was removed here with everything in it, including
new files and edits whose uploads had just failed for want of a parent, and
ignored content such as .git. Such a folder now stays and is created on
Drive again (B211).
- A node the SDK could not decrypt was missing from the remote walk and so
read as deleted on Drive. A short listing or an unreadable size now leaves
the affected paths out of the pass, and a pass in which no synced path is
left on Drive is refused (B212).
- A file Drive deleted was removed here even when it had been edited since
the scan. It is now checked again first, and kept (B213).
- A folder deleted here was trashed on Drive although another device had just
put new files in it. It now stays on Drive (B214).
- A decrypted name holding / or .. became a path outside the sync folder, and
failed the whole listing in the mount. Such names are left out (B215).
Issue #40: after a password reset the daemon failed every mount with
"failed to decrypt: missing key", and the app waited on "Connecting…"
because control.sock was never created. proton-drive-rs 0.9.1 now
creates a new My Files volume when no active regular volume is left,
as the web client does.

Proton answers a sign-in it blocks for abuse or rate limits with code
2028 and the text "This version of the app is no longer supported". The
SDK read 2028 as Unknown, so the app passed that text through and told
users to update a current release (issues #28, #39).
- deps: proton-sdk and proton-drive-rs 0.8.3, which name 2028 Blocked
- core: error::sign_in_blocked detects it
- gui: the login page says Proton is refusing sign-in for now and that
waiting helps, translated in every catalog
- cli: pdfs login adds the same hint to the error
- cli: pdfs diagnose warns instead of failing when cache.db does not
exist yet; the daemon creates it after the first sign-in
- docs: BUGS.md B209, changelog, troubleshooting entry
A folder pin reads each file's modification time and size before it
downloads the file. If the file's create landed during the download, the
landing set Drive's time, and the pin then stored the blob under the old
time. The file showed as kept offline but read as stale.
After each download, the pin now compares the file's time and size with
the tree's. If they changed, it downloads the file again under the new
values, at most three times.
The simulation gains FakeClient::hold_next_download to force that order.
The account run of 3.3.0 failed "move refuses a file still being
written" on the on-demand to mirror pairing: pdfs move moved the folder
while open.txt in it was open for writing, and the write landed after
the move.
retire_create re-keys a landed create's nodes row to the real uid first
and repoints the tree and the open write handles after. A file opened in
between holds a handle with the placeholder uid. has_pending_work_under
placed each open handle by looking its uid up in the nodes table, which
no longer has the placeholder, so it saw nothing open under the folder,
and with the queue already empty the move went ahead. Open handles are
now placed in the in-memory tree by inode, which a landing create does
not change.
The simulation test holds the drain at that point with the new
FakeClient::hold_next_landing_of_any, and fails without the fix.
A package upgrade replaces the binaries but does not restart the user
service, so the daemon keeps the old release and its bugs until the next
login. On 3.2.0 the reporter of #33 still saw "Couldn't sync Documents:
read .../snapshots/37: Permission denied", which only a daemon older than
3.2.0 can produce: since then the scan leaves an unreadable subfolder out
and only an unreadable sync root fails the pass (B206).
The daemon now reports its release in Status; one from before the field
omits it, which reads as older. When the daemon is older than the
front-end, the tray says "Update not finished - restart Proton Drive" and
offers a restart, the sync card shows "Restart to finish updating" with a
Restart button, and pdfs status and pdfs diagnose print the systemctl
command. A newer daemon is not flagged, since then the front-end is the
stale one.
Refs #33
Every SDK error that was not an API reply was classified as Offline.
Only a transport failure is. An upload on an account without a photo
library fails in the SDK before any request, and the app said "You're
offline" while every other call worked (issue #38).
Classify by variant: Transport is Offline, InvalidOperation is Invalid,
Serialization is Remote, Crypto and KeysLocked are Internal. The daemon
logs a failed photo upload, and the Photos page greys out Upload when
the account has no photo library.
docs/BUGS.md B205.
A partial write whose base was not in the content cache queued an
incomplete revision, and every write open over it was refused with EIO
until the drain uploaded it. CI's one-client-lan simulation hit this on
seed 1: a create over a file whose partial edit had not drained yet.
The write open now copies the blob and fills its gaps from the remote
base with Core::fill_gaps, as the drain does, and fails only when that
fill fails (B204).

A rotation the keyring refused was retried and kept in the kernel
keyring, but only the log said so, and a reboot before the keyring took
it still signed the user out.
`Response::Status` carries `tokens_unsaved` while one waits. The tray
says "Sign-in not saved — unlock your keyring" and needs attention, the
app's status says the same, `pdfs status` prints a Keyring line and
`pdfs diagnose` warns. New strings are translated in every catalog
(B61).
A rotation the Secret Service refused lived only in the daemon's
memory, so a crash or SIGKILL before the retry landed lost the only live
refresh token.
Keep it in the kernel keyring as well until it is written. The next
resume, by the daemon or `pdfs unlock`, puts it back in when the stored
blob still holds the refresh token it spent, and writes it; one left
over from an older login is dropped. `kernelkey` now holds named keys,
the passphrases and the unsaved tokens (B61).
`pdfs unlock` resumes the daemon's session and may refresh it. The
daemon then holds a spent refresh token, and since B202 a refusal of it
read as an expired session although the keyring held a live one.
Before calling a refused session expired, compare the keyring with what
this process last stored. When it holds a newer rotation or another
login, end the mount with `MountOutcome::ResumeStored` and mount again
from the keyring. A rotation another process already wrote counts as
this session's, so the daemon keeps writing its later ones (B203).
A failed keyring write after a refresh was only a warning, and the one
live refresh token then lived in memory only (B61). The sink now keeps
the rotation as unsaved and retries it in the background after 1 s, 5 s,
30 s and then every 5 minutes, until it is written or the blob has moved
on. The refusal is logged as an error naming `pdfs login`.
docs/BUGS.md B61.
A refresh token Proton refused, or a deleted or disabled account, was
treated as a lost connection: the mount came up "offline", the probe
retried forever and logged only at debug, and nothing told the user that
only signing in again helps (issue #35).
session_revoked() names those errors. The root fetch, probe, drain,
event poll, event seed and photos root now set session_expired, log one
warning naming `pdfs login`, and stop retrying. Cached files stay
readable and changes stay queued.
Response::Status carries session_expired (serde default false). The
tray shows "Session expired — sign in again" with a Sign In Again…
item that opens the app's sign-in page; the app's status and Sync card
say the same with a button. `pdfs status` and `pdfs diagnose` report it.
New strings are translated in every catalog.
docs/BUGS.md B202.
Proton refresh tokens are single-use. store_tokens replaced the tokens of
whatever blob was stored, so after `pdfs login` restarted the daemon, the
old daemon's shutdown persist wrote its spent tokens into the new
session's blob, and the new daemon failed with InvalidRefreshToken
(issue #35). `pdfs unlock` and the legacy migration had the same shape.
Each session now writes through a TokenSink that only touches a blob
with its session id that still holds the refresh token it last left
there. Shutdown only flushes a rotation the keyring refused. unlock and
migrate_legacy re-read the blob after verifying.
docs/BUGS.md B201.
Offline or paused, a drain worker claims nothing and then slept until the
earliest queued op fell due. Every queued op was already due and nothing
attempted it, so the wait was zero and all 16 workers spun on the queue
for the whole outage (issue #35: 17 min of CPU in 2 min 16 s).
A worker that claims nothing now sleeps the full idle poll; a reconnect
or resume wakes it. earliest_due_at also uses the claim's exclusions, so
an op held behind a claimed op on the same node no longer counts as due.
docs/BUGS.md B200.
Stop Sharing removes the link, invitations and members but cannot delete
the share itself, and Drive keeps listing the empty share until its
backend removes it, minutes later.
The daemon now leaves a share with no member, invitation or link out of
the listing (unless a lookup failed, so a live share is never hidden),
and the app drops stopped items from the page as soon as the requests
succeed instead of waiting for the slow reload.
An unreadable subfolder, such as a container's root-owned cache, failed
every pass of its synced folder, so nothing else in the tree reached
Drive (#33, B196). The scan now leaves such a path out, together with an
entry that vanished mid-scan and a name that is not UTF-8, and the pass
drops everything under it from classification, the wipe guard and the
push pass's deletions. It is never read as deleted and never downloaded
into. An unreadable or absent root still fails the pass. The activity
feed names unreadable paths once each time the set changes.
Two related bugs on the way to online-only:
- The push pass read deletions from the raw baseline, so a synced path
that later became ignored was trashed on Drive (B197).
- The switch evicted everything once the folder was idle, including
ignored paths such as .git/, symlinks, unreadable folders and files
changed after the pass, none of which are on Drive (B198). It now
refuses and names the path.
Closes#33
The verification window now runs in its own process, so the app survives
when WebKit cannot start its sandbox on secureblue, but the CAPTCHA still
could not be solved there (#29). WebKit binds the journal socket with
`--ro-bind-try`, bubblewrap only skips a missing path, not an unreadable
one, and WebKit has no switch to leave the socket out.
Proton Mail Bridge never uses a web view: it opens verify.proton.me in the
system browser and retries with the original challenge token, typed with
the offered methods. Do the same as a fallback.
- core: `browser_verification_url` and `browser_verified` build the page
URL and the retry credential from the challenge
- gui: when the verification window fails, a dialog opens the page in the
browser and continues the sign-in once the user is done
- cli: `pdfs login` handles a CAPTCHA the same way instead of failing
- i18n: translate the new dialog in every catalog
- docs: B195, TROUBLESHOOTING.md, ARCHITECTURE.md, changelog
Fixes#29
On secureblue, WebKit cannot start the sandbox for the verification page:
bubblewrap is kept from the journal socket, xdg-dbus-proxy fails, and
WebKit ends its process with g_error. The webview lived in pdfs-app, so
the whole app crashed after the sign-in (#29).
- gui: `pdfs-app --human-verification` shows the page in its own window,
reads the URL on stdin and prints the token on stdout; its logs go to
stderr
- gui: a child that dies or fails without a token ends the sign-in with a
message that the page could not be opened, instead of "cancelled"
- i18n: translate the new message in every catalog
- docs: B195 in the bug ledger, the cause and a one-time workaround in
TROUBLESHOOTING.md, the child process in ARCHITECTURE.md, changelog
On a fresh install only the daemon and the CLI created
~/.local/state/proton-drive-linux. The app starts the tray before the
first sign-in, so the tray failed to bind its single-instance socket and
exited, and the Takeout page could not remember staged archives (#29).
- gui: pdfs-tray and pdfs-app call AppDirs::ensure at start, which also
makes the directories owner-only
- docs: B194 in the bug ledger, changelog entry
The ledger ran B193 down to B78, then B1 up to B75, with T1 to T4 in
the middle and a stray top-level heading inside B14. Status lines used a
dozen wordings for the same few states, so finding what is still open
meant reading 6,600 lines.
Add a header: what the numbers promise (permanent, never reused; B76
and B77 were never assigned), the status vocabulary, and how to add an
entry, with a template. Add an index sorted by status, with what is left
for every open or partly fixed entry. Order all entries newest first
under one Entries section, and move the acceptance-runner findings to
their own section. Titles are in sentence case; anchors are unchanged.
Entry text is kept as written, except B89: the file it described,
proton-dev/CLAUDE.md, no longer exists, so it is closed.
ARCHITECTURE.md described the 2.x write path, where namespace changes
waited for Drive and every mount had its own inode space. Rewrite it
around the local tree (lid, inode = lid + 1, local~<lid> stand-ins), the
queue and its 16 drain workers, sync issues, and the remaining split
between the mount and the mirror engine. Drop the pins.json claim; pins
moved into the database at schema v5.
TESTING.md gains the simulation runs and loses the per-case narrative
that --list and BUGS.md already carry. ROADMAP.md takes over the
post-3.0.0 items from the milestone status file.
Remove MILESTONE-3.0.0-STATUS.md (a working log) and UI_UX_PLAN.md (the
2.x design audit). Code comments and CI that cited the untracked
docs/MILESTONE-3.0.0.md now point at TESTING.md, ARCHITECTURE.md and
ROADMAP.md. Threat-model links follow the section to §10.
The confirmation run on 812eb3d (PDFS_SIM_KNOWN=fail, twelve seeds)
passed every profile, so no open bug is tolerated any more: the call,
hang and damage matchers for B125 to B134 go, and any of them now fails
the seed. B126, B128 and B133 were fixed with B138, B162 and B137;
B134 stays open with local_first off only, which the runs do not mount.
The known-bug confirmation run failed one_client_on_a_flaky_link seeds 6
and 11 on three bugs around a create whose answer was lost:
- B182: after a restart, a write over a file whose create landed but was
never read back forked a conflict copy. A revision of a file that has
no revision of Drive's now adopts the landed node first.
- B183: the SHA-1s a create sent were kept in memory, so after a restart
its trash or retry no longer knew the node Drive made. They are now on
the op's row (pending_op.sent_sha1, schema 42).
- B184: a rename rewrote the op's target, and the trash and the retry
looked for the node under the last name only. Each attempt's parent
and name are recorded (pending_op.sent_to); the trash looks under all
of them, and a retry adopts the node an earlier attempt made and moves
it to the current name.
The daemon logs it as "<reason>; local changes uploaded as <copy>" or
"...kept at <path>", which the Activity page showed as written, in
English. It now reads both and the three reasons, one sentence each.
