659640e224 was buggy, it had a STM
deadlock because two actions both wanted to takeTMVar the WorkerPool
and so blocked one-another.
Fixed by completely reworking how the pool is maintained. Maintenace
threads now wait for the Async actions and update the WorkerPool. This
means twice as many threads as before, but green threads so will only
use a few extra bytes ram per thread.
When running multiple concurrent actions, the cleanup phase is run in a
separate queue than the main action queue. This can make some commands
faster, because less time is spent on bookkeeping in between each file
transfer.
But as far as I can see, nothing will be sped up much by this yet, because
all the existing cleanup actions are very light-weight. This is just groundwork
for deferring checksum verification to cleanup time.
This change does mean that if the user expects -J2 will mean that they see no
more than 2 jobs running at a time, they may be surprised to see 4 in some
cases (if the cleanup actions are slow enough to notice).
It might also make sense to enable background cleanup without the -J,
for at least one cleanup action. Indeed, that's the behavior that -J1
has now. At some point in the future, it make make sense to make the
behavior with no -J the same as -J1. The only reason it's not currently
is that git-annex can build w/o concurrent-output, and also any bugs
in concurrent-output (such as perhaps misbehaving on non-VT100 compatible
terminals) are avoided by default by only using it when -J is used.
Add back support for ftp urls, which was disabled as part of the fix for
security hole CVE-2018-10857 (except for configurations which enabled curl
and bypassed public IP address restrictions). Now it will work if allowed
by annex.security.allowed-ip-addresses.
Renamed annex.security.allowed-http-addresses to
annex.security.allowed-ip-addresses because it is not really specific to
the http protocol, also limiting eg, git-annex's use of ftp and via
youtube-dl, several other protocols.
The old name for the config will still work.
If both old and new name are set, the new name will win.
Made responses to git-annex requests be listed under each request.
This did lead to a little duplication since some replies are used for 2
requests, but it also makes it much clearer and easier to see how the
protocol works.
And, it makes each request self-contained, so they can be split out into
separate pages.
