Because mount entries provide more information compared to just one
string mountpoint. For example later for `wcfs status` and `wcfs stop`
we will need to use the ID of a "device" that is attached to the mount,
and also the type of the filesystem that is serving the mount.

-> Introduce internal.os.MountDB to retrieve information from OS
   registry of mounted filesystems and use its entries instead of plain
   mountpoint string.

wcfs_test.py already had some rudimentary code to parse /proc/mounts
which we also replace with querying MountDB.

The API of MountDB might be viewed as a bit of overkill but it will
align with API of upcoming ProcDB for which it will be reasonable.

We will soon need to use this functions from several places.
Plain code movement.

Currently it is easy to deadlock wcfs by opening .wcfs/zhead and not
reading from opened zhead handle due to the nature of what this zhead
file is designed to do. For this reason we want .wcfs/zhead not to be present
on production deployments and be available only where it is needed -
during test runs.

-> Introduce -debug flag for that to "enable debugging features" and put
   .wcfs/zhead to be that debug-only feature, and move it to be
   .wcfs/debug/zhead for clarity.

Three reasons:

1) -d is not very descriptive, it's help "debug" is also too vague;
2) currently it only activates trace of FUSE exchange
3) in the next patch we are going to introduce -debug that will activate
   debugging-only features which will remain disabled on production runs
   for safety.

-> Rename -d to -trace.fuse to clarify its meaning and prepare for
   upcoming -debug.

For upcoming `wcfs status` we will need to be able to invoke functions
from stdlib and similar and retrieve their returned values.

XXX not sure the API is right. Maybe join should just join and return
value retrieved via .retvalue() method.

Sometimes it is useful to run just f(*argv, **kw) instead of f(cin,
cout, *argv, **kw). For example for upcoming `wcfs status` we will need
to run os.stat(".wcfs/zurl") and similar things. Add low-level
flag-parameter to omit passing cin and cout to the called function.

We will soon need to use this utility not only in tests.
Practically plain code movement with minimal adaptation.

We will soon need to use tSubProcess not only for tests and so will move
it out to another place. It will need to be able to run functions from
both wcfs/wcfs_faultyprot_test.py and from other modules. Prepare to
that.

Running tests in wcfs/wcfs_faultyprot_test.py was yielding errors about
invalid closes, e.g.

    wcfs/wcfs_faultyprot_test.py::test_wcfs_pinhfaulty_kill_on_watch[_bad_watch_no_pin_read]

Since soon we are going to use tSubProcess not only in tests this will
become less innocent with more incentive to fix.

Looking at the strace output I saw that the same file descriptor was
being closed twice in a row. Looking at strace further revealed that
this fd was created via pip syscall and finally I could connect it to
the pipe created by subprocess.Popen.

So what happens here is that we were taking fd number from
subprocess.Popen and passing it to multiprocessing.Connection with both
thinking they own the fd, and closing it on GC.

-> Fix that by really passing the fd to MPConnection as a copy first, and
   then redirecting Popen fds to devnull - to make sure in robust way
   that stdin/out IO does not interfere with pickle exchange going on in
   between child and parent via multiprocessing connections.

Fixes 33ea7769 (wcfs: tests: Move client to be pinkill'ed into separate process)

We can include at least milliseconds portion of the time via %(msecs) .

Noticed in Levin's tactivity.py .

So that we can correlage py log with go log.

Tried to mimic glog format output, but it is not exactly the same currently

On Theia all Slappartitions have the same user, however on bare-metal
SlapOS each partition has a different user. In this case zope nodes are
not allowed to read WCFS, because they belong to a different user (even
when every user read permission). This is a feature of FUSE and can be
disabled with 'allow_other'. This is unconditionally done with this
patch to allow deployment of WCFS on bare-metal SlapOS.

This patch updates NEO/go to include a patch that fixes
non-deterministic crashs for 'wendelin.core'. Its tradeoff is however a
moderate memory leak. This leak is going to be fixed later when a new
golang version is released. See more details about this here:

sendReq has two phases: a) send request, and b) read reply. When there
is an error on the first phase, e.g. client does not read what wcfs is
trying to send, it returns an error like

    pin #2 @03fb63abd6d65b33: sendReq: send .2: context deadline exceeded

however when there is an error on the second phase, e.g. client does not
reply to wcfs request, it currently returns an error like

    pin #2 @03fb63abd6d65b33: sendReq: context deadline exceeded

which is not clear to interpret about which part was problematic.

After this patch the error for the second case becomes

    pin #2 @03fb63abd6d65b33: sendReq: waiting for reply: context deadline exceeded

which is easier to interpret.

This patch updates:

- github.com/golang/glog: we already wanted to do so in
    nexedi/wendelin.core!23,
    but we deferred it to keep go 1.18 support. However in recent patches
    we already dropped go 1.18 support and we can therefore update glog now.
- lab.nexedi.com/kirr/neo/go: add fix in handshake, see here for more information:
    kirr/neo@d75f4ac2 and
    kirr/neo@03db1d8a

This patch doesn't update:

- github.com/hanwen/go-fuse: This was updated upstream and Kirill already
    reviewed and integrated patches in custom branch. However when updating
    go-fuse to v2.4.3-0.20240904154523-9546fc238dc6 (this is
    kirr/go-fuse@9546fc23),
    WCFS tests fail on my machine [1] => let's defer update
- github.com/kisielk/og-rek: there are new patches that will be needed
    in the future, but we didn't update NEO/go og-rek dependency yet,
    so let's defer the update in wendelin.core until we updated og-rek
    in NEO/go
- github.com/johncgriffin/overflow: no update on upstream
- github.com/pkg/errors: no update on upstream
- github.com/stretchr/testify: This was already updated with
    nexedi/wendelin.core@c559ec1a
    'testify' seems to have a major release in the future which may break
    some of our test code, but for now major version 1 is still the
    stable release.

----
kirr: I confirm that
kirr/go-fuse@9546fc23 brings in
regression to WCFS tests. It seems I missed some error in that go-fuse
update and it will need to be bisected and debugged.

If a client, on purpose or due to a bug or being stopped, is slow to respond
with ack to file invalidation notification, it creates a problem because the

other clients, that try to work with the same file, will get stuck.

Lacking OS primitives to change address space of another process and not
being able to work it around with ptrace in userspace, wcfs takes approach
to kill a slow client on 30 seconds timeout by default.

But before, this protection wasn't implemented yet: one
faulty client could therefore freeze the whole system. With this work
this protection is implemented now: faulty clients are killed after the
timeout or any other misbehaviour in their pin handlers.

Working on this topic also resulted in several fixes and improvements
around isolation protocol implementation on the server side.

I would only suggest one very tiny change. In go.mod we have:

    module lab.nexedi.com/nexedi/wendelin.core/wcfs

    go 1.14

I think this needs to be updated to go 1.19 due to atomic.Int64.

And maybe we just need general go mod tidy update.

/discussed-on nexedi/wendelin.core!18

If a pin misbehaves or there is IO error or anything else, we want to
stop all communication on the watchlink, cancel on in-flight pin
handlers, and (TODO) kill the client with SIGBUS.

This patch organizes WatchLink shutdown on any pin error.
This functionality is indirectly tested by test_Wcfs_watch_robust and
will be also indirectly tested by faultyprotection tests.

It would be good to have dedicated tests probably, but that is,
hopefully, TODO.

/reviewed-by @levin.zimmermann
/reviewed-on nexedi/wendelin.core!18

Pinning is critical operation whose failure will soon lead to client
being killed with SIGBUS. WCFS correctness also depend fundamentally on
pin operation, if started, to be handled by the client.

-> rework the READ handler not to cancel pin if a READ interrupt comes
   in from the OS client.

Do this via organizing WatchLink.serveCtx and running pins under this
context instead of under READ context. Later we will adjust pins to also
cancel this context on any error.

Test is, hopefully, TODO.

/reviewed-by @levin.zimmermann
/reviewed-on nexedi/wendelin.core!18

When serve is completing and going to exit, it sends an error message to
the client without any timeout. So if the client is not reading from the
channel, wcfs will get stuck waiting for the message to be consumed.

-> Fix that by trying to send that last error only during 1 second and
   ignoring errors if any

Test is, hopefully, TODO.

/reviewed-by @levin.zimmermann
/reviewed-on nexedi/wendelin.core!18

Bring in more structure:

- final watchlink cleanup is done in its own block
- cancelling spawned handlers is done in another block
- add more comments explaining things

/reviewed-by @levin.zimmermann
/reviewed-on nexedi/wendelin.core!18

Previously we were using .sk.CloseRead() to interrupt sk.Read(), but
that is not necessary since .sk, relying on xio.Pipe, implements
xio.Reader natively with full support for cancellation.

The original code to cancel via CloseRead comes from mid 2019 and predates

go123@7ad867a3
go123@0e368363
go123@0bdac628
go123@9db4dfac
go123@d2dc6c09

And in b17aeb8c and
6f0cdaff (wcfs: Provide isolation to clients), it seems, I missed to
update WatchLink.serve code to that.

Do that now because it simplifies code flow organization a bit.

/reviewed-by @levin.zimmermann
/reviewed-on nexedi/wendelin.core!18

So far we were testing only against faulty client that reads pin
notification ok, but does not reply to the notification. But there could
be more problems:

1) a client does not read pin notification at all
2) a client closes watchlink abruptly after reading pin notification
3) a client replies to pin notification but the reply is not "ack"

The first problem, if not handled leads to whole set of clients to
become stuck on reading the same block as the faulty client. The other
problems also indicate breakage of the isolation protocol from the client
side and that wcfs can no longer be sure that it provides good
uncorrupted data to the client.

In the first case, similarly to "no reply" situation we need to kill the
client to make progress while maintaining safety as well. In the cases 2
and 3 we cannot maintain safety if the faulty client remains in the set
of live and served clients, so it is also logical to send SIGBUS/SIGKILL
to it.

Killing a client with SIGBUS is similar to how OS kernel sends SIGBUS when
a memory-mapped file is accessed and loading file data results in EIO. It is
also similar to wendelin.core 1 where SIGBUS is raised if loading file block
results in an error.

wcfs: tests: Add test to exercies faulty client that does not reply to pin triggered by readPinWatchers

Levin writes:

    This patch extends the test scope of 'test_wcfs_pintimeout_kill'. Before
    this patch, the test only ensured that a client that does not
    respond to pin requests during the initial watch request [1] is
    killed. Now it also tests that a faulty client is killed when a block
    is invalidated. Since there are no other situations where the WCFS
    server sends pin requests to a client, the tests now cover all situations
    where a faulty client might not respond. This patch therefore aims to
    increase the security that WCFS is not blocked by a faulty client.

We will need to use this utilitin from several places in the next patch.

Currently assertBlk uses default timeout() to wait for READ operation to
complete. That works well everywhere except that in faulty
protection tests wcfs server will first need to wait for its own
pintimeout time to kill the faulty client and only then	return read
result to all non-faulty clients.

This way corresponding test, when one client fails to handle pin
notification well triggered due to READ operations, will need to use
adjusted longer timeout for the good client when doing assertBlk.

Adjust assertBlk to allow specifying custom timeout as preparatory step
for that.

And make sure that that good client can setup its watch ok even
through there simultaneously is a faulty client that should get killed.

If we don't the whole testing process will become killed when wcfs
becomes taught to kill clients that do not handle pin notifications
well.

Use multiprocessing to do so and to be able to interoperate with spawned
test process by sending/receiving objects to/from it.

If wcfs kills client that did not respond to pin notification in
pintimeout time, we need to wait strictly _more_ than that time to detect
whether client was killed or not. And in practice, due to noise in
operating system load and other factors, that waiting time should be
significantly greater to detect lack of expected event. However we were
waiting for exactly 1·pintimeout time and were claiming that there was
no pinkill event right after that.

-> Wait for 2·pintimeout instead of 1·pintimeout to make pinkill detection robust.
