In case `rpc_public_addr` is not set, but autodiscovery is used, this
allows filtering the list of automatically discovered IPs to a specific
subnet.
For example, if nodes should pick *their* IP inside a specific subnet,
but you don't want to explicitly write the IP down (as it's dynamic, or
you want to share configs across nodes), you can use this option.
Garage v0.8.5
This minor release includes the following improvements and fixes:
New features:
- Configuration: make LMDB's `map_size` configurable and make `block_size` and `sled_cache_capacity` expressable as strings (such as `10M`) (#628, #630)
- Add support for binding to Unix sockets for the S3, K2V, Admin and Web API servers (#640)
- Move the `convert_db` command into the main Garage binary (#645)
- Add support for specifying RPC secret and admin tokens as environment variables (#643)
- Add `allow_world_readable_secrets` option to config file (#663, #685)
Bug fixes:
- Use `statvfs` instead of mount list to determine free space in metadata/data directories (#611, #631)
- Add missing casts to fix 32-bit build (#632)
- Fix error when none of the HTTP servers (S3/K2V/Admin/Web) is started and fix shutdown hang (#613, #633)
- Add missing CORS headers to PostObject response (#609, #656)
- Monitoring: finer histogram boundaries in Prometheus exported metrics (#531, #686)
Other:
- Documentation improvements (#641)
Sometimes, the secret files permissions checks gets in the way. It's
by no mean complete, it doesn't take the Posix ACLs into account among
other things. Correctly checking the ACLs would be too involving (see
https://git.deuxfleurs.fr/Deuxfleurs/garage/issues/658#issuecomment-7102)
and would likely still fail in some weird chmod settings.
We're adding a new configuration file key allowing the user to disable
this permission check altogether.
The (already existing) env variable counterpart always take precedence
to this config file option. That's useful in cases where the
configuration file is static and cannot be easily altered.
