Joey Hess 1865b28094 assistant: Logs are rotated to avoid them using too much disk space.
This cannot completely guard against a runaway log event, and only runs
every hour anyway, but it should avoid most problems with very
long-running, active assistants using up too much space.

- Overview of threads and MVars, etc:
-
- Thread 1: parent
- The initial thread run, double forks to background, starts other
- threads, and then stops, waiting for them to terminate,
- or for a ctrl-c.
- Thread 2: Watcher
- Notices new files, and calls handlers for events, queuing changes.
- Thread 3: inotify internal
- Used by haskell inotify library to ensure inotify event buffer is
- kept drained.
- Thread 4: inotify startup scanner
- Scans the tree and registers inotify watches for each directory.
- A MVar lock is used to prevent other inotify handlers from running
- until this is complete.
- Thread 5: Committer
- Waits for changes to occur, and runs the git queue to update its
- index, then commits. Also queues Transfer events to send added
- files to other remotes.
- Thread 6: Pusher
- Waits for commits to be made, and pushes updated branches to remotes,
- in parallel. (Forks a process for each git push.)
- Thread 7: PushRetryer
- Runs every 30 minutes when there are failed pushes, and retries
- them.
- Thread 8: Merger
- Waits for pushes to be received from remotes, and merges the
- updated branches into the current branch.
- (This uses inotify on .git/refs/heads, so there are additional
- inotify threads associated with it, too.)
- Thread 9: TransferWatcher
- Watches for transfer information files being created and removed,
- and maintains the DaemonStatus currentTransfers map.
- (This uses inotify on .git/annex/transfer/, so there are
- additional inotify threads associated with it, too.)
- Thread 10: TransferPoller
- Polls to determine how much of each ongoing transfer is complete.
- Thread 11: Transferrer
- Waits for Transfers to be queued and does them.
- Thread 12: StatusLogger
- Wakes up periodically and records the daemon's status to disk.
- Thread 13: SanityChecker
- Wakes up periodically (rarely) and does sanity checks.
- Thread 14: MountWatcher
- Either uses dbus to watch for drive mount events, or, when
- there's no dbus, polls to find newly mounted filesystems.
- Once a filesystem that contains a remote is mounted, updates
- state about that remote, pulls from it, and queues a push to it,
- as well as an update, and queues it onto the
- ConnectedRemoteChan
- Thread 15: NetWatcher
- Deals with network connection interruptions, which would cause
- transfers to fail, and can be recovered from by waiting for a
- network connection, and syncing with all network remotes.
- Uses dbus to watch for network connections, or when dbus
- cannot be used, assumes there's been one every 30 minutes.
- Thread 16: TransferScanner
- Does potentially expensive checks to find data that needs to be
- transferred from or to remotes, and queues Transfers.
- Uses the ScanRemotes map.a
- Thread 17: PairListener
- Listens for incoming pairing traffic, and takes action.
- Thread 18: ConfigMonitor
- Triggered by changes to the git-annex branch, checks for changed
- config files, and reloads configs.
- Thread 19: XMPPClient
- Built-in XMPP client.
- Thread 20: WebApp
- Spawns more threads as necessary to handle clients.
- Displays the DaemonStatus.
- Thread 21: Glacier
- Deals with retrieving files from Amazon Glacier.
-
- ThreadState: (MVar)
- The Annex state is stored here, which allows resuscitating the
- Annex monad in IO actions run by the watcher and committer
- threads. Thus, a single state is shared amoung the threads, and
- only one at a time can access it.
- DaemonStatusHandle: (STM TMVar)
- The daemon's current status.
- ChangeChan: (STM TChan)
- Changes are indicated by writing to this channel. The committer
- reads from it.
- CommitChan: (STM TChan)
- Commits are indicated by writing to this channel. The pusher reads
- from it.
- FailedPushMap (STM TMVar)
- Failed pushes are indicated by writing to this TMVar. The push
- retrier blocks until they're available.
- TransferQueue (STM TChan)
- Transfers to make are indicated by writing to this channel.
- TransferSlots (QSemN)
- Count of the number of currently available transfer slots.
- Updated by the transfer watcher, this allows other threads
- to block until a slot is available.
- This MVar should only be manipulated from inside the Annex monad,
- which ensures it's accessed only after the ThreadState MVar.
- ScanRemotes (STM TMVar)
- Remotes that have been disconnected, and should be scanned
- are indicated by writing to this TMVar.
- BranchChanged (STM SampleVar)
- Changes to the git-annex branch are indicated by updating this
- SampleVar.
- NetMessager (STM TChan, TMVar, SampleVar)
- Used to feed messages to the built-in XMPP client, handle
- pushes, and signal it when it needs to restart due to configuration
- or networking changes.
- UrlRenderer (MVar)
- A Yesod route rendering function is stored here. This allows
- things that need to render Yesod routes to block until the webapp
- has started up and such rendering is possible.
