PostObject (presigned POST) returns `400 InvalidHeaderValue` when the upload involves a non-ASCII filename. The same key uploads fine vie PUT, as the issue #1489 noted.
The problem was that `handle_post_object` stores the form field values in an `http::HeaderMap`. values go in through `HeaderValue::from_str` but are read back with the strict `HeaderValue::to_str()` (ASCII-only) which fails on any UTF-8 value.
This is the same problem fixed in eab2b81b for `x-amz-meta-*` headers, and the fix is the same:
`std::str::from_utf8(value.as_bytes())` instead of `to_str()`. The `key` field in `post_object.rs` and the standard headers (`content-disposition` etc.) in `extract_metadata_headers`.
Added integration tests for PostObject (there were none): UTF-8 key, `${filename}` substitution, and UTF-8 `Content-Disposition` metadata. The substitution test passes even without the fix, proving that the filename path was never broken, only the form-params round-trip.

Documenting the structure of a team can be helpful to integrate newcomers, avoid some conflicts and to accompany the evolution of that structure as a FOSS project grows.
This is an attempt to do that for garage, after discussions with multiple maintainers. The aim of this text is to document the status quo, offering a start for further incremental updates.
I propose to put it as `GOVERNANCE.md` file because this naming has emerged as a sort of standard in FOSS projects.
I would be happy to help facilitate such updates if there is interest (while being aware that project members have other things on their plates and that governance work can be taxing).

The OPTIONS placeholder for buckets without a resolvable global alias returns` Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *` and `Access-Control-Allow-Methods: *` but omits `Access-Control-Allow-Headers`.
Bug verified against Garage v2.2.0 with a local-aliased bucket: OPTIONS placeholder doesn't have `Access-Control-Allow-Headers`, causes the browser to reject signed PUT preflights
The current placeholder fails open for unsigned simple requests but blocks every signed request, undermining the design intent flagged in the FIXME:
```rs
// We take the permissive approach of allowing everything,
// because we don't want to prevent web apps that use
// local bucket names from making API calls.
```
Adds `Access-Control-Allow-Headers: *` so the permissive default is actually permissive for the request shapes that exist in practice.
Refs #258. Does not address the broader FIXME (CORS rule resolution for local-aliased buckets); the placeholder approach is preserved.

## Title
fix(cors): return single matching origin instead of multiple values in `Access-Control-Allow-Origin`
## Summary
This PR fixes bucket CORS responses when a single CORS rule contains multiple `AllowedOrigins`.
Previously, Garage returned the configured origins as a comma-separated list in `Access-Control-Allow-Origin`, for example:
```http
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: https://app.example.test, https://admin.example.test
```
This is not the expected browser-facing behavior.
When a request origin matches a configured rule, the response should reflect **only the matching request origin**, unless the rule contains `*`.
## What changed
- `Access-Control-Allow-Origin` now behaves as follows:
- returns `*` when the matched rule contains a wildcard origin
- otherwise returns the request `Origin` as a **single value**
- added `Vary: Origin` when ACAO reflects the request origin
- added preflight-specific `Vary` handling in the preflight path for:
- `Origin`
- `Access-Control-Request-Method`
- `Access-Control-Request-Headers`
## Scope
This change applies to shared bucket CORS handling paths, including:
- S3 API responses
- K2V API responses
- S3 POST object responses
- web bucket responses
- preflight (`OPTIONS`) bucket CORS responses
This does **not** change admin API fixed CORS behavior.
## Reproduction
A direct repro script is included:
```bash
./script/test-cors-multi-origin.sh
```
It exercises two cases against a direct single-node Garage instance:
1. **single-origin control**
2. **multi-origin repro**
Before this fix, the multi-origin case returned a comma-separated ACAO value.
After this fix, both cases reflect only the request origin.
## Example behavior
### Before
```http
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: https://app.example.test, https://admin.example.test
```
### After
```http
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: https://app.example.test
```
## Tests
Added/updated tests in `src/api/common/cors.rs` for:
- single-origin control
- multiple allowed origins reflecting the request origin
- wildcard origin preserving `*`
- preserving existing `Vary` values while appending `Origin`
## Validation
Used for validation:
```bash
cargo test -p garage_api_common cors::tests -- --nocapture
cargo build -p garage --bin garage
./script/test-cors-multi-origin.sh
```
## Reproducibility
For reviewers who want to validate behavior by commit:
- Before fix: `aa368e4b`
- includes the direct repro script and the regression test setup
- multi-origin ACAO is reproduced as a comma-separated value
- After fix: `f630eb92`

## Summary
Garage's SigV4 canonical-request builder trims leading/trailing whitespace from signed header values but does not collapse sequential internal whitespace, which the SigV4 spec requires:
> Convert sequential spaces to a single space.
— https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/create-signed-request.html
AWS SDKs apply this normalization before computing the signature, but transmit the raw value on the wire. The receiver must therefore apply the same normalization when reconstructing the canonical request, otherwise the recomputed hash differs and the request is rejected as `Invalid signature`.
Same class of canonicalization-drift bug as #1155 / !1382, but on the canonical-headers axis rather than the canonical-URI axis.
## Reproduction
Surfaces in practice with `gitlab-runner`'s S3 cache uploader. I was in the midst of migrating my runner cache from AWS S3 to garage, but I noticed some shared runner caches were no longer uploading.
I was using `sha256sum | sha256sum` to compute my cache keys, which leaves a trailing ` -` on the value. Once GitLab appends `-protected` for protected branches the resulting `x-amz-meta-cachekey` header value contains internal sequential whitespace and triggers the mismatch:
```
x-amz-meta-cachekey:php- --protected
^^
two spaces, preserved by Garage
```
Without the fix the included regression test (`test_presigned_put_with_user_metadata`) fails with HTTP 403; with the fix it returns 200.
`aws-cli` is unaffected because it signs `Content-Type` rather than user metadata, so the specific code path with whitespace-bearing signed header values isn't exercised.
## Fix
In `canonical_request` (`src/api/common/signature/payload.rs`), replace the `.trim()` call on the joined header value with the full SigV4 normalization — `split_whitespace().collect::<Vec<_>>().join(" ")` — which both trims edges and collapses internal runs.
## Tests
* New regression test `test_presigned_put_with_user_metadata` covering a presigned PUT whose `x-amz-meta-*` value contains internal sequential whitespace.
* Full integration suite passes: `40 passed; 0 failed; 2 ignored`.
* `garage_api_common` unit tests pass: `18 passed; 0 failed`.
## Notes
* Backwards-compatible: any signature that validated before still validates, because clients are spec-required to collapse on their side; Garage was only rejecting requests where the client had collapsed correctly but Garage hadn't.
* No config or migration changes.
* Fix applies to both presigned-URL and Authorization-header code paths since they share the canonical-request builder.

1. Address failure tracking and pruning (peering.rs): Track consecutive

prune from known_addrs. Reset count when address is re-advertised via
gossip or incoming connection. Prevents unbounded list growth.
2. Shuffle before connecting (peering.rs): Randomize address order in
try_connect() so the valid address (often appended last) gets a fair
chance instead of always trying stale addresses first.

## Summary
This PR ensures that the `LifecycleWorker` yields at least once to the Tokio scheduler in between each batch of 100 objects.
## Problem being solved
I'm administrating a Garage cluster which has been experiencing timeouts on all endpoints while the lifecycle worker is running at midnight UTC : `Ping timeout` error messages and even requests eventually failing due to `Could not reach quorum ...`.
I have found that this happens while the lifecycle worker is working on a big bucket (containing millions of objects) with a lifecycle rule that applies to very few objects.
The `process_object()` function does not hit any `await`:
- `last_bucket` is always the same, so the `bucket_table` is not read asynchronously
- no transaction is made on the `object_table` because my lifecycle rule (almost) never applies to any object
The first commit in this PR adds an executable which reproduces the problem that I've been experiencing in a self-contained way : the lifecycle worker starves the Tokio scheduler so much that no other task is able to run (or very rarely).
To run it : `cargo run -p garage_model --bin lifecycle-starvation-test`.
This commit can be dropped post-review, as it's only useful to demonstrate the starvation.
The error messages completely stopped after adding the extra yield to the nodes of my cluster.
The duration of the lifecycle worker task does not appear to have changed at all from what I can see (looking at the timestamps produced either by the self-contained binary or by each of my nodes with the `Lifecycle worker finished` message).
## Note
An other potential fix would have been to force the `WorkerProcessor` to yield before re-enqueuing a busy task, but this would have affected all Garage workers even though it's only the `LifecycleWorker` being uncooperative.

This fixes a regression wrt garage-v1, likely caused by the version upgrade of quick_xml.
Currently, garage-v2 will emit empty ErrorDocument/IndexDocument/RedirectAllRequestsTo attributes in the response of GetBucketWebsite if there are no corresponding values.
This is somewhat wrong; at least, the S3 documentation for RedirectAllRequestsTo (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/API/API_RedirectAllRequestsTo.html) writes that it has a required HostName field. So emitting an empty RedirectAllRequestsTo is invalid.
This PR skips emitting XML attributes for these parameters if they contain no value.

## Summary
This PR fixes S3 `DeleteObjects` XML parsing when the request body is pretty-printed (contains indentation/newlines as whitespace text nodes).
Although PR #1324 already tried to address this, parsing could still fail with:
`InvalidRequest: Bad request: Invalid delete XML query`
because non-element nodes were validated but not actually skipped in the parsing loop.
## What changed
- In `src/api/s3/delete.rs`:
- Properly skip non-element whitespace text nodes while iterating over `<Delete>` children.
- Keep rejecting non-whitespace stray text content.
- Parse the root `<Delete>` element more robustly by selecting the first element child.
## Tests added
New unit tests in `src/api/s3/delete.rs`:
- `parse_delete_objects_xml_with_formatting`
- pretty-printed valid XML is accepted.
- `parse_delete_objects_xml_accepts_compact_valid_xml`
- compact valid XML is accepted.
- `parse_delete_objects_xml_rejects_non_whitespace_text_node`
- compact XML with stray text is rejected.
- `parse_delete_objects_xml_rejects_pretty_print_with_stray_text`
- pretty-printed XML with stray text is rejected.
## Validation
Executed:
```bash
cargo test -p garage_api_s3 parse_delete_objects_xml -- --nocapture

Result: all parser tests pass.

## Problem
`hugo deploy` is broken with Garage on recent hugo versions when using gzip matchers
## Why?
We don't support multi-value headers correctly, in this case this specific headers combination:
```
Content-Encoding: gzip
Content-Encoding: aws-chunked
```
is interpreted as:
```
Content-Encoding: gzip
```
instead of:
```
Content-Encoding: gzip,aws-chunked
```
It fails both 1. the signature check and 2. the streaming check.
## Proposed fix
- Taking into account multi-value headers when building Canonical Request (validated with hugo deploy + AWS SDK v2)
- Taking into account multi-value headers (both comma separated and HeaderEntry separated) when removing `aws-chunked` (validated with hugo deploy + AWS SDK v2)
## Full explanation
Currently, `hugo deploy` on version `hugo v0.152.2` or more recent uses AWS SDK v2 only and supports for sending gzipped content.
That's configured with a matcher like that:
```yaml
deployment:
matchers:
- pattern: "^.+\\.(woff2|woff|svg|ttf|otf|eot|js|css)$"
cacheControl: "max-age=31536000, no-transform, public"
gzip: true # <-------- here
```
Also, with SDK v2, hugo is streaming all of its files.
Thus, it sends that kind of requests:
```python
Request {
method: PUT,
uri: /sebou/pagefind/pagefind.js?x-id=PutObject,
version: HTTP/1.1,
headers: {
"host": "localhost",
"user-agent": "aws-sdk-go-v2/1.39.2 ua/2.1 os/linux lang/go#1.25.6 md/GOOS#linux md/GOARCH#amd64 api/s3#1.84.0 ft/s3-transfer m/E,G,Z,g",

"x-forwarded-for": "::1",
"x-forwarded-host": "localhost",
"x-forwarded-proto": "https"
},
body: Body(Streaming)
}
```
But our canonical request function only calls `HeaderMap.get()` that returns only the 1st value and not `HeaderMap.get_all()` that returns all the values for a header.
Leading to the following invalid `CanonicalRequest` value:
```python
PUT
/sebou/pagefind/pagefind.js
x-id=PutObject
accept-encoding:identity
amz-sdk-invocation-id:aed6df34-a67c-4bab-b63b-2b3777b751a0

cache-control:max-age=31536000, no-transform, public

```
Amazon is crystal clear that, instead of dropping the other values, we should concatenate them with a comma:

- use result of `trim` for xml parsing instead of use the `str` before trim.
Garage RPC connections have no TCP keepalive enabled. When a connection dies silently (proxy pod restart, NAT timeout, network partition), it's only detected by application-level pings after ~60s (4 failed pings x 15s interval). During this window, the node appears connected but all RPC calls to it fail.
Enable TCP keepalive on both outgoing and incoming RPC connections via socket2:
- Idle time before first probe: 30s (TCP_KEEPALIVE_TIME)
- Probe interval after first: 10s (TCP_KEEPALIVE_INTERVAL)
A helper set_keepalive() function avoids duplicating the socket2 setup. Incoming connection keepalive failures are logged as warnings but don't reject the connection.
Companion to #1345 (stale address pruning + connect timeout). Together they address both halves of the reconnection problem: faster detection (this PR) and faster recovery.

might be needed.
**Approach**: Support the token header even with client certs was the simplist approach and somebody might need/want to use it.
**Background**: I want to run garage via Nomad but within containers (with host volumes). Nomad generates consul tokens (but at least not at the moment client certs). I need to use the catalog as with the services API garage tries to use the host/node IPs (instead of the actual service IPs).

When not used. Especially with a lot of small files on the PVC's Garage uses/is configured with,
Pod upstart time can get quite extreme. For more context see a very good description
of the issues and the technical intricacies behind it here: https://github.com/longhorn/longhorn/issues/2131#issuecomment-778897129
I think it's sane to have fsGroupChangePolicy at "OnRootMismatch" as Garage is an S3 system and thereby
is likely to process a lot of files. And somewhat likely that many of these will be small files as well.
---
Using `fsGroupChangePolicy: "OnRootMismatch"` in my env. changed the Garage Pod upstart. E.g. in an
upgrade case from 5-7minutes ( around 50GB of data ). Many small files though. To 1-15sec.
Thank you.

The systemd-journald is used in most major Linux distros that use systemd.
This enables logging using the systemd-journald native protocol, instead
of just writing to stderr.

- Remove the replication_factor.replication_factor() in favor of
usize::from(replication_factor) to make the conversion more explicit.
- Implement Display on ReplicationFactor so that it can be formatted
without converting to usize
- Use ReplicationFactor in the constructor of LayoutVersion and add a
method to get a ReplicationFactor from a LayoutVersion, despite
LayoutVersion still storing it as usize internally.

LMDB files never shrink, so we can end up with a large database that
contains a smaller amount of actual data.
Compacting the snapshots is an easy win: it will write faster to disk,
take less space, and if needed you can reimport an already-compacted
snapshot as the main database.
In particular, it means that "garage meta snapshot --all" will get an exit
code of 1 if any node fails to snapshot.
This makes sure that any external tool trying to snapshot nodes (e.g. from
cron) will be aware of the failure.
Fix#920
Snapshot errors on remote nodes were not reported at all.
We now get proper error output such as:

This removes our dependency on cargo2nix, which was causing us some
issues. Whereas cargo2nix creates one Nix derivation per crate, Crane
uses only two derivations:
1. Build dependencies only
2. Build the final binary
This means that during the second step, no caching can be done. For
instance, if we do a change in garage_model, we need to recompile all of
the Garage crates including those that do not depend on garage_model.
On the upside, this allows all of the Garage crates to be built at once
using cargo build logic, which is optimized for high parallelism and
better pipelining between all of the steps of the build. All in all,
this makes most builds faster than cargo2nix.
A few other changes have been made to the build scripts and CI:
- Unit tests are now run within a Nix derivation. In fact, we have
different derivations to run the tests using LMDB and Sqlite as
metadata db engines.
- For debug builds, most CI steps now run in parallel (with the notable
exception of the smoke test that runs after the build, which is
inevitable).
- We no longer pass the GIT_VERSION argument when building debug builds
and running the tests. This means that dev binaries and test
binaries don't know the exact version of Garage they are from. That
shouldn't be an issue in most cases.
- The not-dynamic.sh scripts has been fixed to fail if the file does not
exist.
This change is probably not a proper fix, somebody with more expertise on
this code should look at it.
Here is how to reproduce the crash:
- start with a layout with two zones
- move all nodes of a zone to gateway mode: `garage layout assign fea54bcc081f318 -g`
- `garage layout show` will panic with a backtrace
Fortunately, the crash is only on the RPC client side, not on the Garage
server itself, and `garage layout revert` still works to go back to the
previous state.
As far as I can tell, this bug is present since Garage 0.9.0 which
includes the new layout assignation algorithm:
https://git.deuxfleurs.fr/Deuxfleurs/garage/pulls/296
Currently, taking a snapshot of the metadata database with sqlite creates
a sqlite file without extension with the following format:
snapshots/2025-01-26T15:29:17Z
This makes it hard to understand what kind of data this is, and is not
consistent with LMDB:
snapshots/2025-01-26T15:29:17Z/data.mdb
With this change, we now get a directory with a single db.sqlite file:
snapshots/2025-01-26T15:29:17Z/db.sqlite
I followed the documentation and got an error if the layout's version was not specified
```
garage layout apply
Error: Internal error:
Please pass the new layout version number to ensure that you are writing the correct version of the cluster layout.
To know the correct value of the new layout version, invoke `garage layout show` and review the proposed changes.
```
This fixes that
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.

This page of the AWS docs indicate that Content-Type should be part of
the CanonicalHeaders (and therefore SignedHeaders) strings in signature
calculation:
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/API/sig-v4-header-based-auth.html
However, testing with Minio Client revealed that it did not sign the
Content-Type header, and therefore we broke CI by expecting it to be
signed. With this commit, we don't mandate Content-Type to be signed
anymore, for better compatibility with the ecosystem. Testing against
the official behavior of S3 on AWS has not been done.
For some users, this might be their first time being interacting with
the `env_logger` crate.
As such, they might not be aware that less verbose log levels exist.
Some might not want to log every incoming request, for example.
This commit also adds syntax hints to the code-fence for bash for better
syntax highlighting of that section, and repeats itself multiple times,
that `info` is, in fact, the default.
No changes to the recommendation of log levels were made.
Having all Engine enum variants conditional causes compilation errors
when *none* of the DB engine features is enabled. This is not an issue
for full garage build, but affects crates that use garage_db as
dependency.
Change all variants to be present at all times. It solves compilation
errors and also allows us to better differentiate between invalid DB
engine name and engine with support not compiled in current binary.
Use optional DB open overrides for both input and output database.
Duplicating the same override flag for input/output would result in too
many, too long flags. It would be too costly for very rare edge-case
where converting between same DB engine, just with different flags.
Because overrides flags for different engines are disjoint and we are
preventing conversion between same input/ouput DB engine, we can have
only one set.
The override flag will be passed either to input or output, based on
engine type it belongs to. It will never be passed to both of them and
cause unwelcome surprise to user.
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.

DaemonSet is a k8s resource that schedules one instance per node,
which is useful for some garage deployment use cases, including
managing garage nodes using k8s node labels
As discussed in the chat yesterday, I want to propose to disable the ingress per default.
The motivation behind this change is, that per default the ingress is "misconfigured"
meaning it can not work with the default values and requires a user of the chart to
add additional configuration. When installing the chart per default, I would not
expect to already expose garage publicly without my explicit configuration to do so
Commenting the ingressClass resource also allows for relying only on
annotations - otherwise the ingressClass would be always set to nginx
or require a user to override it with ingressClass: null
A small change on top, I've added the ability to specify user defined labels per ingress
The default values forces people to create an ingress resources,
where per default an ingress is not necessary to start garage.
If someone wants to utilize an ingress, he would need to define
the values for the ingress either way, so enabling the ingress
explicitly makes more sense, then requiring it to be disabled per default
By default, Nginx does proxy buffering and it may store big replies to a
temporary file up to 1 GB. It also means that Nginx will read data as
fast as possible from Garage, even if the client downloads slowly. Both
behaviours are often not wanted, so disable this temporary file in the example.
Ref: https://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_proxy_module.html#proxy_buffering
Also add an example of upstream with a "backup" server, which may be
useful to only use remote servers as fallback.
- self.node_id_vec was not properly updated when the previous ring was empty
- ClusterLayout::merge was not considering changes in the layout parameters
- have consistent error return types
- store the zone redundancy in a Lww
- print the error and message in the CLI (TODO: for the server Api, should msg be returned in the body response?)
It takes as paramters the replication factor and the zone redundancy, computes the
largest partition size reachable with these constraints, and among the possible
assignation with this partition size, it computes the one that moves the least number
of partitions compared to the previous assignation.
This computation uses graph algorithms defined in graph_algo.rs
Performance improvements included in this PR:

- [x] Block manager now uses 256 independant locks instead of one big lock for writing, reduces contention when writing several/many objects in parallel

Garage currently uses the legacy resolver "1". The new one is used
by default if the root package specifies 'edition = 2021', which
Garage does not (yet).
The problem with the legacy resolver is, among others, that features
enabled by dev-dependencies are propagated to normal dependencies.
This affects e.g. hyper - one of the dev-dependencies enables "http2"
feature that adds many extra dependencies. If we build garage without
opentelemetry-otlp (this is enabled in the following commit), there's
no normal dependency enabling "http2" feature.
See https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/resolver.html#feature-resolver-version-2

- [x] Up to 4 block resync workers can be activated to run simultaneously to speed up big resyncs, this parameter is set dynamically using `garage worker set resync-n-workers`

Unfortunately, rusqlite uses the opposite logic for enabling/disabling
bundled libraries to others (libsodium-sys, zstd-sys). Cargo features
are very limited and doesn't allow to enable feature A in a dependency
iff feature B is disabled.
Note, lmdb-rkv-sys doesn't need any special treatment because it
automatically links against system liblmdb if found via pkgconf.
Linux distros should build garage with
`--no-default-features --features system-libs` to disable bundled-libs
and enable system-libs.
If this feature is enabled, libsodium-sys and zstd-sys will link
dynamically against system-provided libraries instead of building
and linking statically the bundled (possibly outdated and vulnerable)
copies of them. This feature is intended mainly for linux package
maintainers.
By default, structopt reports the value provided by
the env var CARGO_PKG_VERSION, feeded by Cargo when reading
Cargo.toml. However for Garage we use a versioning based on git,
so we often report a version that is behind the real version.
In this commit, we create garage_util::version::garage() that
reports the right version and configure all structopt subcommands
to call this function instead of using the env var.

Fix#284
**Bugs**
- [x] When exporting sqlite, trees iterate empty??
- [x] LMDB doesn't work
**Known issues for various back-ends**
- Sled:
- Eats all my RAM and also all my disk space
- `.len()` has to traverse the whole table
- Is actually quite slow on some operations
- And is actually pretty bad code...
- Sqlite:
- Requires a lock to be taken on all operations. The lock is also taken when iterating on a table with `.iter()`, and the lock isn't released until the iterator is dropped. This means that we must be VERY carefull to not do anything else inside a `.iter()` loop or else we will have a deadlock! Most such cases have been eliminated from the Garage codebase, but there might still be some that remain. If your Garage-over-Sqlite seems to hang/freeze, this is the reason.
- (adapter uses a bunch of unsafe code)
- Heed (LMDB):
- Not suited for 32-bit machines as it has to map the whole DB in memory.
- (adpater uses a tiny bit of unsafe code)
**My recommendation:** avoid 32-bit machines and use LMDB as much as possible.
**Converting databases** is actually quite easy. For example from Sled to LMDB:
```bash
cd src/db
cargo run --features cli --bin convert -- -i path/to/garage/meta/db -a sled -o path/to/garage/meta/db.lmdb -b lmdb
```
Then, just add this to your `config.toml`:
```toml
db_engine = "lmdb"
```

conceptual problems, but please restrain from copying the output from an LLM
anywhere in your code or on the issue tracker, or from letting an agent edit
the codebase directly.
## Asking questions
Read the documentation before asking questions.
Do not use the issue tracker to ask questions about Garage.
Questions asked on the issue tracker will be closed.
Ask questions on the Matrix channel `#garage:deuxfleurs.fr` so that any
community member can see your question and help you out.
If you need in-depth support from the Garage developers specifically, write to
`garagehq@deuxfleurs.fr`. Even if you do so, we do not commit to giving you an
answer.
## Reporting bugs
When writing a bug report, use this checklist:
- For bugs that can be reproduced:
- confirm that you are using the latest version of Garage and that the bug still exists in this version
- set the log level to debug using the `RUST_LOG=garage=debug` environment variable and reproduce the bug to get more verbose logs
- Check whether there is already an open issue in the bug tracker. If so, your bug report is still valuable but please add it as a comment to the existing issue instead of opening a new one.
- Collect as much information as possible:
- logs of the Garage daemon at the time the issue happened, including logs that show what was happening before the issue occurred
- the output of `garage status`
- the output of `garage stats -a`
- the output of `garage layout history`
- Write a detailed bug report, including:
- a description of your cluster (number of nodes, hardware, operating system, networking, etc)
- a detailed description of what you did that led to the issue, including any code or command line that invoked a Garage API
- what you were expecting
- what actually happened, and how that's different from what you expected
- the information collected previously
- if possible, simple steps to help the developers reproduce the issue locally
Bug reports that are imprecise or otherwise unactionable will be closed.
## Suggesting new features
Garage can be improved in many ways, but just suggesting a new feature does not mean we will implement it.
Feature requests that may lead to an actual implementation are feature requests that:
- are precise and actionable, i.e. include a precise description of the expected behavior and any necessary architectural details required for the implementation
- are motivated by actual need from a variety of users
Moreover, a certain number of features are defined as out-of-scope for Garage, including but not limited to:
- extensions to the S3 API that are not present on AWS
- features that require the implementation of a consensus algorithm
- more generally, features that are incompatible with the architecture of Garage and its goal of staying simple
Only feature requests in one of the following category may stay open in the issue tracker:
- features that the Garage team wants to work on
- features that are being actively worked on by an external contributor which is clearly identified
- features that are easy to implement and could be an easy task for a new contributor that wants to get to know the codebase
All other feature requests will be closed after a few months of inactivity, so as to keep the number of open issues to a manageable level.
Feature requests that are clearly out of scope will be closed directly.
## Improving the documentation
An easy way to contribute to Garage which also adds a lot of value is to
improve the documentation. Make sure to write in clear technical English, and
write unambiguously. Documentation contributions are very appreciated if they
are well-written.
## For developers
We welcome code contributions to Garage that adhere to our standards for quality:
- Changes should be reviewed from a functional perspective to ensure that they work well with the existing codebase and do not introduce bugs or subtle issues.
- You must have tested your contribution to make sure that it does what it says. The amount of testing required is proportional to the complexity of the change introduced.
- Any new feature must be properly documented following existing practices (see below).
- Unit tests should be included when relevant.
- Contributions should pass basic lints for syntactic quality (`cargo fmt`, `cargo clippy`, `typos`).
- Contributions should pass our CI test suite.
- No user-facing breaking changes may be introduced between major releases.
- No internal data model change may be introduced between major releases, to
ensure that Garage daemons with different minor/patch versions numbers can
work together in a cluster. For major releases, a proper migration path
should be implemented and tested thoroughly.
Please follow up on your work when changes are requested, to avoid stale PRs.
Do not take it personally if a Garage developer pushes directly to your branch
to modify your contribution, as this might be necessary to get it merged
faster.
### Properly documenting your contribution
#### Configuration options
New configuration options should be documented in
`doc/book/reference-manual/configuration.md`. The documentation for a
configuration option should be exhaustive. For instance, for choice options all
choices should be listed explicitly with a precise description of their
meaning.
In terms of syntax, all configuration options should appear in three places:
- in the example at the top, with an example value
- in the index of all configuration options which is sorted by alphabetical order
- in its dedicated subsection with full reference text
#### CLI commands and command flags
CLI commands are self-documented using the doc commends in the codebase.
Make sure to write clear and precise comments for all options you are adding.
#### S3 features
If you implement new S3 features, make sure to update the compatibility matrix in `doc/book/reference-manual/s3-compatibility.md`.
#### Admin API
The admin API has an OpenAPI specification that is automatically generated
using Utoipa, from a description of each endpoint that is given in
`src/api/admin/openapi.rs` and a description of data structure schemas in
`src/api/admin/api.rs`. The code in `openapi.rs` is only used to generate the
OpenAPI specification document and not for the actual implementation in Garage,
whereas structures defined in `api.rs` are also used for the implementation of
API calls. Make sure to write good doc comments for all of these items so that
the OpenAPI specification will be precise and accurate.
An up-to-date version of the OpenAPI specification document should be kept in
the repository in `doc/api/garage-admin-v2.json`. When you are making changes
to the admin API, update this document with the following command:
```
cargo run -- admin-api-schema > doc/api/garage-admin-v2.json
```
## Garage team organization
Alex (handle `lx`) is the lead developer and is responsible of ensuring the
correctness of Garage and stability between version upgrades.
The other maintainers are Trinity (handle `trinity-1686a`), Quentin (handle `quentin`) and Maximilien (handle `halfa`).
Maximilien is responsible for coordinating effort on the Kubernetes integration / Helm chart.
## Pull request merging criteria
The following PRs should only be merged after review and approval from Alex:
- PRs that introduce architectural changes, such as changes in the data model
or change in the coordination protocols between nodes
- PRs that introduce changes on the format of data structures used for
persistent disk storage and internal cluster communication (RPC)
- PRs that are suspected of introducing some kind of breakage or unexpected
behavior due to their complexity
PRs that introduce breaking change for users but don't fall in one of the
previous category should be discussed between maintainers to evaluate the
impact on users when upgrading. Alex's approval is not required to merge them
as long as they are clearly identified as breaking in the PR title, and are
properly merged in the branch for the next major version and not in the current
main branch.
All other PRs can be merged by any maintainer on their own, once they are
confident that the quality standards defined in this document are respected
before merging.
## Merging strategy
When merging PRs, maintainers should ensure that a Git commit is created by
Forgejo that records the PR number, its title and its text in the commit
message. If a PR is fixing an issue, make sure that the issue number is
included in the PR title as well. This is to ensure that when releasing a new
version of Garage, the changelog in the release notes can be properly
constructed by reading the Git log since the last release.
We also want to keep the history "almost linear" to facilitate the use of `git
bisect` if it ever were necessary. This leaves the following two merging
strategies:
- For PRs that consist of many commits that should stay independent, the
"rebase and create merge commit" strategy should be used. The merge commit is
created automatically by Forgejo and saves the PR's number, title and text in
the commit message.
- For PRs that consist of only one commit, or a few number of commits that can
be merged, the "create squash commit" strategy should be used. This way a
single commit will be created by Forgejo which also saves the PR's number,
title and text in the commit message.
When cherry-picking commits from one branch to the other, a simple fast-forward
merging strategy can be used if the commit message already references a PR
This documents how the Garage project operates. It reflects the state of the project as of July 2026 and is not optimal. The team is interested to improve it in the future.
## Team organization
* **Contributors**: anyone can contribute by proposing changes in issues and pull requests.
* **Maintainers**: they are responsible for reviewing, merging pull requests, publishing releases and triaging issues.
The current maintainers are:
* Alex (handle `lx`)
* Trinity (handle `trinity-1686a`)
* Quentin (handle `quentin`)
* Maximilien (handle `halfa`), who is in particular responsible for coordinating effort on the Kubernetes integration / Helm chart.
They are added to a white-list of the branch protection rule of the repository to enable them to merge pull requests.
To become a maintainer, you need to be a long-term contributor and earn the personal trust of Alex.
There is no set process for leaving the maintainer role.
* **Lead developer**: Alex (handle `lx`) is the lead developer and is responsible of ensuring the
correctness of Garage and stability between version upgrades. He may transfer this role to someone else as he sees fit.
## Communication channels
The team coordinates in the following channels:
* The issue tracker and pull requests of the official repository.
* The `#garage:deuxfleurs.fr` matrix channel (in English), open to anyone.
On this channel, users may ask for support and discussions about development also happen.
* The `#garage-dev:deuxfleurs.fr` matrix channel (in French), not advertised to contributors but de facto accessible to anyone.
Discussions about development and project coordination happen there.
The moderators for those discussion channels are the Garage maintainers.
## Decision procedures
Decisions are taken by lazy consensus, with the lead developer settling discussions when a consensus cannot be reached.
## Governance changes
There is no set process for changing the governance of garage.
If you wish to report responsibly a security vulnerability about Garage, we ask that you follow the following process.

- DESCRIPTION: Please provide precise description of the security vulnerability you have found with as much information as you are able and willing to provide.
Please send the above info, along with any other information you feel is pertinent by emailing the core team at: garagehq@deuxfleurs.fr
The Garage Core Team will let you know within a few weeks whether or not your report has been accepted or rejected.
We ask that you please keep the report confidential until we have either responded or made a public announcement.
Garage has many API that you can rely on to build complex applications.
In this section, we reference the existing SDKs and give some code examples.
## ⚠️ DISCLAIMER
**K2V AND ADMIN SDK ARE TECHNICAL PREVIEWS**. The following limitations apply:
- The API is not complete, some actions are possible only through the `garage` binary
- The underlying admin API is not yet stable nor complete, it can breaks at any time
- The generator configuration is currently tweaked, the library might break at any time due to a generator change
- Because the API and the library are not stable, none of them are published in a package manager (npm, pypi, etc.)
- This code has not been extensively tested, some things might not work (please report!)
To have the best experience possible, please consider:
- Make sure that the version of the library you are using is pinned (`go.sum`, `package-lock.json`, `requirements.txt`).
- Before upgrading your Garage cluster, make sure that you can find a version of this SDK that works with your targeted version and that you are able to update your own code to work with this new version of the library.
- Join our Matrix channel at `#garage:deuxfleurs.fr`, say that you are interested by this SDK, and report any friction.
- If stability is critical, mirror this repository on your own infrastructure, regenerate the SDKs and upgrade them at your own pace.
## About the APIs
Code can interact with Garage through 3 different APIs: S3, K2V, and Admin.
Each of them has a specific scope.
### S3
De-facto standard, introduced by Amazon, designed to store blobs of data.
### K2V
A simple database API similar to RiakKV or DynamoDB.
Think a key value store with some additional operations.
Its design is inspired by Distributed Hash Tables (DHT).
More information:
- [In the reference manual](@/documentation/reference-manual/k2v.md)
### Administration
Garage operations can also be automated through a REST API.
We are currently building this SDK for [Python](@/documentation/build/python.md#admin-api), [Javascript](@/documentation/build/javascript.md#administration) and [Golang](@/documentation/build/golang.md#administration).
More information:
- [In the reference manual](@/documentation/reference-manual/admin-api.md)
If you are developing a new application, you may want to use Garage to store your user's media.
The S3 API that Garage uses is a standard REST API, so as long as you can make HTTP requests,
you can query it. You can check the [S3 REST API Reference](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/API/API_Operations_Amazon_Simple_Storage_Service.html) from Amazon to learn more.
Developing your own wrapper around the REST API is time consuming and complicated.
Instead, there are some libraries already available.
Some of them are maintained by Amazon, some by Minio, others by the community.
Nextcloud will now make Garage encrypt files at rest in the storage bucket.
These files will not be readable by an S3 client that has credentials to the
bucket but doesn't also know the secret encryption key.

In return, this system is a bit harder to configure.
We show how it is still possible to configure Garage with Peertube, allowing you to spread the load and the bandwidth usage on the Garage cluster.
Starting from version 5.0, Peertube also supports improving the security for private videos by not exposing them directly
but relying on a single control point in the Peertube instance. This is based on S3 per-object and prefix ACL, which are not currently supported
in Garage, so this feature is unsupported. While this technically impedes security for private videos, it is not a blocking issue and could be
a reasonable trade-off for some instances.

Ente is an alternative for Google Photos and Apple Photos. It [can be selfhosted](https://help.ente.io/self-hosting/) and is working fine with Garage as of May 2024.
As a first step we need to create a bucket and a key for Ente:
```bash
garage bucket create ente
garage key create ente-key
# For the CORS setup to work, the key needs to be --owner as well, at least temporarily.
garage bucket allow ente --read --write --owner --key ente-key
```
We also need to setup some CORS rules to allow the Ente frontend to access the bucket:
aws s3api put-bucket-cors --bucket ente --cors-configuration $CORS
```
Now we need to configure ente-server to use our bucket. This is explained [in the Ente S3 documentation](https://help.ente.io/self-hosting/guides/external-s3).
Prepare a configuration file for ente's backend as `museum.yaml`:

region=garage # Or as you've specified in garage.toml \
access_key=<Key ID from "garage key info my-plakar-key"> \
secret_access_key=<Secret key from "garage key info my-plakar-key">
```
Then create the repository.
```bash
plakar at @garageS3 create -plaintext # Unencrypted
# or
plakar at @garageS3 create #encrypted
```
If you encrypt your backups (Plakar default), you will need to define a strong passphrase. Do not forget to save your password safely. It will be needed to decrypt your backups.
After the repository has been created, check that everything works as expected (that might give an empty result as no file has been added yet, but no error message):
```bash
plakar at @garageS3 check
```
Now that everything is configure, you can use Garage as your backups storage. For instance sync it with a local backup storage:
```bash
$ plakar at ~/backups sync to @garageS3
```
Or list the S3 storage content:
```bash
$ plakar at @garageS3 ls
```

## Removing
```bash
helm delete --namespace garage garage
```
Note that this will leave behind custom CRD `garagenodes.deuxfleurs.fr`, which must be removed manually if desired.
## Increase PVC size on running Garage instances
Since the Garage Helm chart creates the data and meta PVC based on `StatefulSet` templates, increasing the PVC size can be a bit tricky.
### Confirm the `StorageClass` used for Garage supports volume expansion
Confirm the storage class used for garage.
```bash
kubectl -n garage get pvc
NAME STATUS VOLUME CAPACITY ACCESS MODES STORAGECLASS VOLUMEATTRIBUTESCLASS AGE
If your `StorageClass` does not support volume expansion, double check if you can enable it. Otherwise, your only real option is to spin up a new Garage cluster with increased size and migrate all data over.
If your `StorageClass` supports expansion, you are free to continue.
### Increase the size of the PVCs
Increase the size of all PVCs to your desired size.
```bash
kubectl -n garage edit pvc data-garage-0
kubectl -n garage edit pvc data-garage-1
kubectl -n garage edit pvc data-garage-2
kubectl -n garage edit pvc meta-garage-0
kubectl -n garage edit pvc meta-garage-1
kubectl -n garage edit pvc meta-garage-2
```
### Increase the size of the `StatefulSet` PVC template
This is an optional step, but if not done, future instances of Garage will be created with the original size from the template.
This will remove the Garage `StatefulSet` but leave the pods running. It may seem destructive but needs to be done this way since edits to the size of PVC templates are prohibited.
### Redeploy the `StatefulSet`
Now the size of future PVCs can be increased, and the Garage Helm chart can be upgraded. The new `StatefulSet` should take ownership of the orphaned pods again.
Garage exposes some internal metrics in the Prometheus data format.
This page explains how to exploit these metrics.
## Setting up monitoring
### Enabling the Admin API endpoint
If you have not already enabled the [administration API endpoint](@/documentation/reference-manual/admin-api.md), do so by adding the following lines to your configuration file:
```toml
[admin]
api_bind_addr="0.0.0.0:3903"
```
This will allow anyone to scrape Prometheus metrics by fetching
`http://localhost:3903/metrics`. If you want to restrict access
to the exported metrics, set the `metrics_token` configuration value
to a bearer token to be used when fetching the metrics endpoint.
### Setting up Prometheus and Grafana
Add a scrape config to your Prometheus daemon to scrape metrics from
all of your nodes:
```yaml
scrape_configs:
- job_name:'garage'
static_configs:
- targets:
- 'node1.mycluster:3903'
- 'node2.mycluster:3903'
- 'node3.mycluster:3903'
```
If you have set a metrics token in your Garage configuration file,
add the following lines in your Prometheus scrape config:
```yaml
authorization:
type:Bearer
credentials:'your metrics token'
```
To visualize the scraped data in Grafana,
you can either import our [Grafana dashboard for Garage](https://git.deuxfleurs.fr/Deuxfleurs/garage/raw/branch/main/script/telemetry/grafana-garage-dashboard-prometheus.json)
or make your own.

## Preparing your environment
## Prerequisites
### Prerequisites
To run a real-world deployment, make sure the following conditions are met:
- You have at least three machines with sufficient storage space available.
- Each machine has a public IP address which is reachable by other machines.
Running behind a NAT is likely to be possible but hasn't been tested for the latest version (TODO).
- Each machine has an IP address which makes it directly reachable by all other machines.
In many cases, nodes will be behind a NAT and will not each have a public
IPv4 addresses. In this case, is recommended that you use IPv6 for this
end-to-end connectivity if it is available. Otherwise, using a mesh VPN such as
[Nebula](https://github.com/slackhq/nebula) or
[Yggdrasil](https://yggdrasil-network.github.io/) are approaches to consider
in addition to building out your own VPN tunneling.
-Ideally, each machine should have a SSD available in addition to the HDD you are dedicating
to Garage. This will allow for faster access to metadata and has the potential
to significantly reduce Garage's response times.

For instance, here, the Mercury node could be moved to Brussels; this would allow the cluster
to store 2 TB of data in total.
### Best practices
- If you have reasonably fast networking between all your nodes, and are planing to store
mostly large files, bump the `block_size` configuration parameter to 10 MB
(`block_size = "10M"`).
- Garage stores its files in two locations: it uses a metadata directory to store frequently-accessed
small metadata items, and a data directory to store data blocks of uploaded objects.
Ideally, the metadata directory would be stored on an SSD (smaller but faster),
and the data directory would be stored on an HDD (larger but slower).
- For the data directory, Garage already does checksumming and integrity verification,
so there is no need to use a filesystem such as BTRFS or ZFS that does it.
We recommend using XFS for the data partition, as it has the best performance.
EXT4 is not recommended as it has more strict limitations on the number of inodes,
which might cause issues with Garage when large numbers of objects are stored.
- Servers with multiple HDDs are supported natively by Garage without resorting
to RAID, see [our dedicated documentation page](@/documentation/operations/multi-hdd.md).
- For the metadata storage, Garage does not do checksumming and integrity
verification on its own, so it is better to use a robust filesystem such as
BTRFS or ZFS. Users have reported that when using the LMDB database engine
(the default), database files have a tendency of becoming corrupted after an
unclean shutdown (e.g. a power outage), so you should take regular snapshots
to be able to recover from such a situation. This can be done using Garage's
built-in automatic snapshotting (since v0.9.4), or by using filesystem level
snapshots. If you cannot do so, you might want to switch to Sqlite which is
more robust.
- LMDB is the fastest and most tested database engine, but it has the following
weaknesses: 1/ data files are not architecture-independent, you cannot simply
move a Garage metadata directory between nodes running different architectures,
and 2/ LMDB is not suited for 32-bit platforms. Sqlite is a viable alternative
if any of these are of concern.
- If you only have an HDD and no SSD, it's fine to put your metadata alongside
the data on the same drive, but then consider your filesystem choice wisely
(see above). Having lots of RAM for your kernel to cache the metadata will
help a lot with performance. The default LMDB database engine is the most
tested and has good performance.

But at the same time, the `reverse_proxy` is very flexible.
For a production deployment, you should [read its documentation](https://caddyserver.com/docs/caddyfile/directives/reverse_proxy) as it supports features like DNS discovery of upstreams, load balancing with checks, streaming parameters, etc.
### Caching
Caddy can compiled with a
[cache plugin](https://github.com/caddyserver/cache-handler) which can be used
to provide a hot-cache at the webserver-level for static websites hosted by
Garage.
This can be configured as follows:
```caddy
# Caddy global configuration section
{
# Bare minimum configuration to enable cache.
ordercachebeforerewrite
cache
#cache
# allowed_http_verbs GET
# default_cache_control public
# ttl 8h
#}
}
# Site specific section
https://{
cache
#cache {
# timeout {
# backend 30s
# }
#}
reverse_proxy...
}
```
Caching is a complicated subject, and the reader is encouraged to study the
available options provided by the plugin.
### On-demand TLS
Caddy supports a technique called
[on-demand TLS](https://caddyserver.com/docs/automatic-https#on-demand-tls), by
which one can configure the webserver to provision TLS certificates when a
client first connects to it.
In order to prevent an attack vector whereby domains are simply pointed at your
webserver and certificates are requested for them - Caddy can be configured to
ask Garage if a domain is authorized for web hosting, before it then requests
a TLS certificate.
This 'check' endpoint, which is on the admin port (3903 by default), can be
configured in Caddy's global section as follows:
```caddy
{

**A note on hardening:** Garage will be run as a non privileged user, its user
id is dynamically allocated by systemd (set with `DynamicUser=true`). It cannot
access (read or write) home folders (`/home`, `/root` and `/run/user`), the
rest of the filesystem can only be read but not written, only the path seen as
`/var/lib/garage` is writable as seen by the service. Additionally, the process
can not gain new privileges over time.
For this to work correctly, your `garage.toml` must be set with
`metadata_dir=/var/lib/garage/meta` and `data_dir=/var/lib/garage/data`. This
is mandatory to use the DynamicUser hardening feature of systemd, which
autocreates these directories as virtual mapping. If the directory
`/var/lib/garage` already exists before starting the server for the first time,
the systemd service might not start correctly. Note that in your host
filesystem, Garage data will be held in `/var/lib/private/garage`.
To start the service then automatically enable it at boot:
Garage is a stateful clustered application, where all nodes are communicating together and share data structures.
It makes upgrade more difficult than stateless applications so you must be more careful when upgrading.
On a new version release, there is 2 possibilities:
- protocols and data structures remained the same ➡️ this is a **straightforward upgrade**
- protocols or data structures changed ➡️ this is an **advanced upgrade**
You can quickly now what type of update you will have to operate by looking at the version identifier.
Following the [SemVer ](https://semver.org/) terminology, if only the *patch* number changed, it will only need a straightforward upgrade.
Example: an upgrade from v0.6.0 from v0.6.1 is a straightforward upgrade.
If the *minor* or *major* number changed however, you will have to do an advanced upgrade. Example: from v0.6.1 to v0.7.0.
Migrations are designed to be run only between contiguous versions (from a *major*.*minor* perspective, *patches* can be skipped).
Example: migrations from v0.6.1 to v0.7.0 and from v0.6.0 to v0.7.0 are supported but migrations from v0.5.0 to v0.7.0 are not supported.
## Straightforward upgrades
Straightforward upgrades do not imply cluster downtime.
Before upgrading, you should still read [the changelog](https://git.deuxfleurs.fr/Deuxfleurs/garage/releases) and ideally test your deployment on a staging cluster before.
When you are ready, start by checking the health of your cluster.
You can force some checks with `garage repair`, we recommend at least running `garage repair --all-nodes --yes` that is very quick to run (less than a minute).
You will see that the command correctly terminated in the logs of your daemon.
Finally, you can simply upgrades nodes one by one.
For each node: stop it, install the new binary, edit the configuration if needed, restart it.
## Advanced upgrades
Advanced upgrades will imply cluster downtime.
Before upgrading, you must read [the changelog](https://git.deuxfleurs.fr/Deuxfleurs/garage/releases) and you must test your deployment on a staging cluster before.
From a high level perspective, an advanced upgrade looks like this:
1. Make sure the health of your cluster is good (see `garage repair`)
2. Disable API access (comment the configuration in your reverse proxy)
3. Check that your cluster is idle
4. Stop the whole cluster
5. Backup the metadata folder of all your nodes, so that you will be able to restore it quickly if the upgrade fails (blocks being immutable, they should not be impacted)
6. Install the new binary, update the configuration
7. Start the whole cluster
8. If needed, run the corresponding migration from `garage migrate`
9. Make sure the health of your cluster is good
10. Enable API access (uncomment the configuration in your reverse proxy)
11. Monitor your cluster while load comes back, check that all your applications are happy with this new version

Compared to garage, minio latency drastically increases on 3 endpoints: GetObject, PutObject, RemoveObject.
We suppose that these requests on minio make transactions over Raft, involving 4 sequential requests: 1) sending the message to the leader, 2) having the leader dispatch it to the other nodes, 3) waiting for the confirmation of followers and finally 4) commiting it. With our current configuration, one Raft transaction will take around 400 ms. GetObject seems to correlate to 1 transaction while PutObject and RemoveObject seems to correlate to 2 or 3.

Garage automatically resyncs all entries stored in the metadata tables every hour,
to ensure that all nodes have the most up-to-date version of all the information
they should be holding.
The resync procedure is based on a Merkle tree that allows to efficiently find
differences between nodes.
In some special cases, e.g. before an upgrade, you might want to run a table
resync manually. This can be done using `garage repair tables`.
## Metadata table reference fixes
In some very rare cases where nodes are unavailable, some references between objects
are broken. For instance, if an object is deleted, the underlying versions or data
blocks may still be held by Garage. If you suspect that such corruption has occurred
in your cluster, you can run one of the following repair procedures:
- `garage repair versions`: checks that all versions belong to a non-deleted object, and purges any orphan version
- `garage repair block-refs`: checks that all block references belong to a non-deleted object version, and purges any orphan block reference (this will then allow the blocks to be garbage-collected)
- `garage repair block-rc`: checks that the reference counters for blocks are in sync with the actual number of non-deleted entries in the block reference table
The cluster layout in Garage is a table that assigns to each node a role in
the cluster. The role of a node in Garage can either be a storage node with
a certain capacity, or a gateway node that does not store data and is only
used as an API entry point for faster cluster access.
An introduction to building cluster layouts can be found in the [production deployment](@/documentation/cookbook/real-world.md) page.
In Garage, all of the data that can be stored in a given cluster is divided
into slices which we call *partitions*. Each partition is stored by
one or several nodes in the cluster
(see [`replication_factor`](@/documentation/reference-manual/configuration.md#replication_factor)).
The layout determines the correspondence between these partitions,
which exist on a logical level, and actual storage nodes.
## How cluster layouts work in Garage
A cluster layout is composed of the following components:
- a table of roles assigned to nodes, defined by the user
- an optimal assignation of partitions to nodes, computed by an algorithm that is ran once when calling `garage layout apply` or the ApplyClusterLayout API endpoint
- a version number
Garage nodes will always use the cluster layout with the highest version number.
Garage nodes also maintain and synchronize between them a set of proposed role
changes that haven't yet been applied. These changes will be applied (or
canceled) in the next version of the layout.
All operations on the layout can be realized using the `garage` CLI or using the
[administration API endpoint](@/documentation/reference-manual/admin-api.md).
We give here a description of CLI commands, the admin API semantics are very similar.
The following commands insert modifications to the set of proposed role changes
for the next layout version (but they do not create the new layout immediately):
```bash
garage layout assign [...]
garage layout remove [...]
```
The following command can be used to inspect the layout that is currently set in the cluster
and the changes proposed for the next layout version, if any:
```bash
garage layout show
```
The following commands create a new layout with the specified version number,
that either takes into account the proposed changes or cancels them:

## Minor upgrades
Minor upgrades do not imply cluster downtime.
Before upgrading, you should still read [the changelog](https://git.deuxfleurs.fr/Deuxfleurs/garage/releases) and ideally test your deployment on a staging cluster before.
When you are ready, start by checking the health of your cluster.
You can force some checks with `garage repair`, we recommend at least running `garage repair --all-nodes --yes tables` which is very quick to run (less than a minute).
You will see that the command correctly terminated in the logs of your daemon, or using `garage worker list` (the repair workers should be in the `Done` state).
Finally, you can simply upgrade nodes one by one.
For each node: stop it, install the new binary, edit the configuration if needed, restart it.
## Major upgrades
Major upgrades can be done with minimal downtime with a bit of preparation, but the simplest way is usually to put the cluster offline for the duration of the migration.
Before upgrading, you must read [the changelog](https://git.deuxfleurs.fr/Deuxfleurs/garage/releases) and you must test your deployment on a staging cluster before.
We write guides for each major upgrade, they are stored under the "Working Documents" section of this documentation.
### Major upgrades with full downtime
From a high level perspective, a major upgrade looks like this:
1. Disable API access (for instance in your reverse proxy, or by commenting the corresponding section in your Garage configuration file and restarting Garage)
2. Check that your cluster is idle
3. Make sure the health of your cluster is good (see `garage repair`)
4. Stop the whole cluster
5. Back up the metadata folder of all your nodes, so that you will be able to restore it if the upgrade fails (data blocks being immutable, they should not be impacted)
6. Install the new binary, update the configuration
7. Start the whole cluster
8. If needed, run the corresponding migration from `garage migrate`
9. Make sure the health of your cluster is good
10. Enable API access (reverse step 1)
11. Monitor your cluster while load comes back, check that all your applications are happy with this new version
### Major upgrades with minimal downtime
There is only one operation that has to be coordinated cluster-wide: the switch of one version of the internal RPC protocol to the next.
This means that an upgrade with very limited downtime can simply be performed from one major version to the next by restarting all nodes
simultaneously in the new version.
The downtime will simply be the time required for all nodes to stop and start again, which should be less than a minute.
If all nodes fail to stop and restart simultaneously, some nodes might be temporarily shut out from the cluster as nodes using different RPC protocol
versions are prevented to talk to one another.
The entire procedure would look something like this:
1. Make sure the health of your cluster is good (see `garage repair`)
2. Take each node offline individually to back up its metadata folder, bring them back online once the backup is done.
You can do all of the nodes in a single zone at once as that won't impact global cluster availability.
Do not try to manually copy the metadata folder of a running node.
**Since Garage v0.9.4,** you can use the `garage meta snapshot --all` command
to take a simultaneous snapshot of the metadata database files of all your
nodes. This avoids the tedious process of having to take them down one by
one before upgrading. Be careful that if automatic snapshotting is enabled,
Garage only keeps the last two snapshots and deletes older ones, so you might
want to disable automatic snapshotting in your upgraded configuration file
until you have confirmed that the upgrade ran successfully. In addition to
snapshotting the metadata databases of your nodes, you should back-up at
least the `cluster_layout` file of one of your Garage instances (this file
should be the same on all nodes and you can copy it safely while Garage is
running).
3. Prepare your binaries and configuration files for the new Garage version
4. Restart all nodes simultaneously in the new version
5. If any specific migration procedure is required, it is usually in one of the two cases:
- It can be run on online nodes after the new version has started, during regular cluster operation.
- it has to be run offline, in which case you will have to again take all nodes offline one after the other to run the repair
For this last step, please refer to the specific documentation pertaining to the version upgrade you are doing.

### Health `GET /health`

Consult the full health check API endpoint at /v2/GetClusterHealth for more details
```
### On-demand TLS `GET /check`
To prevent abuse for on-demand TLS, Caddy developers have specified an endpoint that can be queried by the reverse proxy
to know if a given domain is allowed to get a certificate. Garage implements these endpoints to tell if a given domain is handled by Garage or is garbage.
Garage responds with the following logic:
- If the domain matches the pattern `<bucket-name>.<s3_api.root_domain>`, returns 200 OK
- If the domain matches the pattern `<bucket-name>.<s3_web.root_domain>` and website is configured for `<bucket>`, returns 200 OK
- If the domain matches the pattern `<bucket-name>` and website is configured for `<bucket>`, returns 200 OK
- Otherwise, returns 404 Not Found, 400 Bad Request or 5xx requests.
*Note 1: because in the path-style URL mode, there is only one domain that is not known by Garage, hence it is not supported by this API endpoint.
You must manually declare the domain in your reverse-proxy. Idem for K2V.*
*Note 2: buckets in a user's namespace are not supported yet by this endpoint. This is a limitation of this endpoint currently.*
**Example:** Suppose a Garage instance is configured with `s3_api.root_domain = .s3.garage.localhost` and `s3_web.root_domain = .web.garage.localhost`.
With a private `media` bucket (name in the global namespace, website is disabled), the endpoint will feature the following behavior:
- [Add option for a backend check to approve use of on-demand TLS](https://github.com/caddyserver/caddy/pull/1939)
- [Serving tens of thousands of domains over HTTPS with Caddy](https://caddy.community/t/serving-tens-of-thousands-of-domains-over-https-with-caddy/11179)
and the hashes of individual blocks are used to dispatch them to storage nodes
and to deduplicate them.
### No RAFT slowing you down
It might seem strange to tout the absence of something as a desirable feature,
but this is in fact a very important point! Garage does not use RAFT or another
consensus algorithm internally to order incoming requests: this means that all requests
directed to a Garage cluster can be handled independently of one another instead
of going through a central bottleneck (the leader node).
As a consequence, requests can be handled much faster, even in cases where latency
between cluster nodes is important (see our [benchmarks](@/documentation/design/benchmarks/index.md) for data on this).
This is particularly useful when nodes are far from one another and talk to one other through standard Internet connections.
### Web server for static websites
A storage bucket can easily be configured to be served directly by Garage as a static web site.
Domain names for multiple websites directly map to bucket names, making it easy to build
a platform for your users to autonomously build and host their websites over Garage.
Surprisingly, none of the other alternative S3 implementations we surveyed (such as Minio
or CEPH) support publishing static websites from S3 buckets, a feature that is however
directly inherited from S3 on AWS.
Read more on our [dedicated documentation page](@/documentation/cookbook/exposing-websites.md).
### Bucket names as aliases
In Garage, a bucket may have several names, known as aliases.
Aliases can easily be added and removed on demand:
this allows to easily rename buckets if needed
without having to copy all of their content, something that cannot be done on AWS.
For buckets served as static websites, having multiple aliases for a bucket can allow
exposing the same content under different domain names.
Garage also supports bucket aliases which are local to a single user:
this allows different users to have different buckets with the same name, thus avoiding naming collisions.
This can be helpful for instance if you want to write an application that creates per-user buckets with always the same name.
This feature is totally invisible to S3 clients and does not break compatibility with AWS.
### Cluster administration API
Garage provides a fully-fledged REST API to administer your cluster programmatically.
Functionality included in the admin API include: setting up and monitoring
cluster nodes, managing access credentials, and managing storage buckets and bucket aliases.
A full reference of the administration API is available [here](@/documentation/reference-manual/admin-api.md).
### Metrics and traces
Garage makes some internal metrics available in the Prometheus data format,
which allows you to build interactive dashboards to visualize the load and internal state of your storage cluster.
For developers and performance-savvy administrators,
Garage also supports exporting traces of what it does internally in OpenTelemetry format.
This allows to monitor the time spent at various steps of the processing of requests,
in order to detect potential performance bottlenecks.
### Kubernetes and Nomad integrations
Garage can automatically discover other nodes in the cluster thanks to integration
with orchestrators such as Kubernetes and Nomad (when used with Consul).
This eases the configuration of your cluster as it removes one step where nodes need
to be manually connected to one another.
### Support for changing IP addresses
As long as all of your nodes don't change their IP address at the same time,
Garage should be able to tolerate nodes with changing/dynamic IP addresses,
as nodes will regularly exchange the IP addresses of their peers and try to
reconnect using newer addresses when existing connections are broken.
### K2V API (experimental)
As part of an ongoing research project, Garage can expose an experimental key/value storage API called K2V.
K2V is made for the storage and retrieval of many small key/value pairs that need to be processed in bulk.
This completes the S3 API with an alternative that can be used to easily store and access metadata
related to objects stored in an S3 bucket.
In the context of our research project, [Aérogramme](https://aerogramme.deuxfleurs.fr),
K2V is used to provide metadata and log storage for operations on encrypted e-mail storage.
Learn more on the specification of K2V [here](https://git.deuxfleurs.fr/Deuxfleurs/garage/src/commit/f8be15c37db857e177d543de7be863692628d567/doc/drafts/k2v-spec.md)
and on how to enable it in Garage [here](@/documentation/reference-manual/k2v.md).
In case of disconnected nodes, when changing the cluster layout to remove these
nodes and add other nodes instead, Garage might not be able to properly evict
the old nodes from the system. This is a built-in security measure to avoid any
inconsistent cluster states.
This manifests by several cluster layout versions staying active even after a
full resync. You can diagnose this situation with `garage layout history`,
which will give you instructions to fix it.
### Tag assignment
In the `garage layout assign` command, the `-t` argument has to be repeated
multiple times to set multiple tags on a node. Writing multiple tags separated
by commas will result in a single string.
## General footguns
Choices made by the developers that users must be aware of if they don't want
to run into potential issues.
### Resync tranquility is conservative by default
By default, the worker parameters `resync-tranquility` and `resync-worker-count` are set to very conservative values, to avoid overloading nodes with I/O when data needs to be resynchronized between nodes.
This can cause issues where the resync queue grows faster than it can be cleared, which in turn causes performance issues in the rest of Garage.
This situation is indicated by a big resync queue with few resync errors (the queue is not caused by a disconnected/malfunctionning node).
To fix it, increase the number of resync workers and reduce the resync tranquility. For instance, if you want to resync as fast as possible:

### Locking objects
Amazon defines a concept of [object locking](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/object-lock.html) that can be achieved either through a Retention period or a Legal hold.

A version is defined by the existence of at least one entry in the blocks table for a certain version UUID.
We must keep the following invariant: if a version exists in the blocks table, it has to be referenced in the objects table.
We explicitly manage concurrent versions of an object: the version timestamp and version UUID columns are index columns, thus we may have several concurrent versions of an object.
Important: before deleting an older version from the objects table, we must make sure that we did a successfull delete of the blocks of that version from the blocks table.

Write strategy: have a single thread that does all write IO so that it is serialized (or have several threads that manage independent parts of the hash space). When writing a blob, write it to a temporary file, close, then rename so that a concurrent read gets a consistent result (either not found or found with whole content).
**This guide explains how to migrate to 0.8 if you have an existing 0.7 cluster.
We don't recommend trying to migrate to 0.8 directly from 0.6 or older.**
**We make no guarantee that this migration will work perfectly:
back up all your data before attempting it!**
Garage v0.8 introduces new data tables that allow the counting of objects in buckets in order to implement bucket quotas.
A manual migration step is required to first count objects in Garage buckets and populate these tables with accurate data.
## Simple migration procedure (takes cluster offline for a while)
The migration steps are as follows:
1. Disable API and web access. Garage v0.7 does not support disabling
these endpoints but you can change the port number or stop your reverse proxy for instance.
2. Do `garage repair --all-nodes --yes tables` and `garage repair --all-nodes --yes blocks`,
check the logs and check that all data seems to be synced correctly between
nodes. If you have time, do additional checks (`versions`, `block_refs`, etc.)
3. Check that queues are empty: run `garage stats` to query them or inspect metrics in the Grafana dashboard.
4. Turn off Garage v0.7
5. **Backup the metadata folder of all your nodes!** For instance, use the following command
if your metadata directory is `/var/lib/garage/meta`: `cd /var/lib/garage ; tar -acf meta-v0.7.tar.zst meta/`
6. Install Garage v0.8
7. **Before starting Garage v0.8**, run the offline migration step: `garage offline-repair --yes object_counters`.
This can take a while to run, depending on the number of objects stored in your cluster.
8. Turn on Garage v0.8
9. Do `garage repair --all-nodes --yes tables` and `garage repair --all-nodes --yes blocks`.
Wait for a full table sync to run.
10. Your upgraded cluster should be in a working state. Re-enable API and Web
access and check that everything went well.
11. Monitor your cluster in the next hours to see if it works well under your production load, report any issue.
## Minimal downtime migration procedure
The migration to Garage v0.8 can be done with almost no downtime,
by restarting all nodes at once in the new version. The only limitation with this
method is that bucket sizes and item counts will not be estimated correctly
until all nodes have had a chance to run their offline migration procedure.
The migration steps are as follows:
1. Do `garage repair --all-nodes --yes tables` and `garage repair --all-nodes --yes blocks`,
check the logs and check that all data seems to be synced correctly between
nodes. If you have time, do additional checks (`versions`, `block_refs`, etc.)
2. Turn off each node individually; back up its metadata folder (see above); turn it back on again. This will allow you to take a backup of all nodes without impacting global cluster availability. You can do all nodes of a single zone at once as this does not impact the availability of Garage.
3. Prepare your binaries and configuration files for Garage v0.8
4. Shut down all v0.7 nodes simultaneously, and restart them all simultaneously in v0.8. Use your favorite deployment tool (Ansible, Kubernetes, Nomad) to achieve this as fast as possible.
5. At this point, Garage will indicate invalid values for the size and number of objects in each bucket (most likely, it will indicate zero). To fix this, take each node offline individually to do the offline migration step: `garage offline-repair --yes object_counters`. Again you can do all nodes of a single zone at once.
**This guide explains how to migrate to 0.9 if you have an existing 0.8 cluster.
We don't recommend trying to migrate to 0.9 directly from 0.7 or older.**
This migration procedure has been tested on several clusters without issues.
However, it is still a *critical procedure* that might cause issues.
**Make sure to back up all your data before attempting it!**
You might also want to read our [general documentation on upgrading Garage](@/documentation/operations/upgrading.md).
The following are **breaking changes** in Garage v0.9 that require your attention when migrating:
- LMDB is now the default metadata db engine and Sled is deprecated. If you were using Sled, make sure to specify `db_engine = "sled"` in your configuration file, or take the time to [convert your database](https://garagehq.deuxfleurs.fr/documentation/reference-manual/configuration/#db-engine-since-v0-8-0).
- Capacity values are now in actual byte units. The translation from the old layout will assign 1 capacity = 1Gb by default, which might be wrong for your cluster. This does not cause any data to be moved around, but you might want to re-assign correct capacity values post-migration.
- Multipart uploads that were started in Garage v0.8 will not be visible in Garage v0.9 and will have to be restarted from scratch.
- Changes to the admin API: some `v0/` endpoints have been replaced by `v1/` counterparts with updated/uniformized syntax. All other endpoints have also moved to `v1/` by default, without syntax changes, but are still available under `v0/` for compatibility.
## Simple migration procedure (takes cluster offline for a while)
The migration steps are as follows:
1. Disable API and web access. You may do this by stopping your reverse proxy or by commenting out
the `api_bind_addr` values in your `config.toml` file and restarting Garage.
2. Do `garage repair --all-nodes --yes tables` and `garage repair --all-nodes --yes blocks`,
check the logs and check that all data seems to be synced correctly between
nodes. If you have time, do additional checks (`versions`, `block_refs`, etc.)
3. Check that the block resync queue and Merkle queue are empty:
run `garage stats -a` to query them or inspect metrics in the Grafana dashboard.
4. Turn off Garage v0.8
5. **Backup the metadata folder of all your nodes!** For instance, use the following command
if your metadata directory is `/var/lib/garage/meta`: `cd /var/lib/garage ; tar -acf meta-v0.8.tar.zst meta/`
6. Install Garage v0.9
7. Update your configuration file if necessary.
8. Turn on Garage v0.9
9. Do `garage repair --all-nodes --yes tables` and `garage repair --all-nodes --yes blocks`.
Wait for a full table sync to run.
10. Your upgraded cluster should be in a working state. Re-enable API and Web
access and check that everything went well.
11. Monitor your cluster in the next hours to see if it works well under your production load, report any issue.
12. You might want to assign correct capacity values to all your nodes. Doing so might cause data to be moved
in your cluster, which should also be monitored carefully.
