* feat(internode): P0 gRPC transport tuning, message limits, payload metrics
Land the P0 subtask from docs/grpc-optimization: close the client-vs-server
transport gaps and add instrumentation to size which unary RPCs need channel
isolation in P1.
Transport tuning (G3): the client `Endpoint` now disables Nagle and raises the
HTTP/2 stream/connection flow-control windows to mirror the server socket, so
small lock/health RPCs are not batched and larger metadata responses are not
throttled by the 64KiB default window. All env-overridable, 0 opts out.
Message-size limits (G1): both `NodeServiceClient` and `NodeServiceServer` set
max decode/encode size (default 100MiB) instead of tonic's silent 4MiB cap, so a
large multi-version xl.meta or aggregated ReadMultiple no longer fails
out_of_range. The server limit is set on `NodeServiceServer` before wrapping in
the auth `InterceptedService` (the interceptor type does not expose it).
Payload instrumentation (P1 prep): ReadAll/ReadMultiple record a payload-size
histogram plus a large-payload counter when a response crosses the configured
threshold (default 8MiB), feeding alerting on paths that contend with
latency-sensitive control-plane traffic on the shared channel. Threshold-only
counter, no per-call hot-path log.
Verification: cargo check/test on config, io-metrics, ecstore, rustfs; clippy
clean on touched files; make pre-commit green.

* feat(internode): P1 control/bulk gRPC channel isolation (opt-in)
Land the P1 subtask from docs/grpc-optimization: physically separate large
bytes-carrying unary RPCs from latency-sensitive control-plane RPCs so a big
transfer can no longer head-of-line block a lock/health RPC on the shared
HTTP/2 connection (G2/G5).
Introduce ChannelClass { Control, Bulk } and get_channel_for_class in protos.
Control RPCs keep the per-peer connection keyed by the bare address; Bulk RPCs
(ReadAll/WriteAll/ReadMultiple/BatchReadVersion, via a new get_bulk_client) are
round-robined across a small per-peer bulk pool.
Rather than restructuring the global GLOBAL_CONN_MAP (and every consumer), bulk
channels are cached under a composite key (addr\0bulk\0idx). The NUL separator
cannot appear in a URL, so bulk keys never collide with the control key. This
keeps the blast radius small on a consistency-sensitive path. create_new_channel
is refactored into build_channel(dial_addr, cache_key) so several physically
distinct channels to one peer cache independently while dialing/TLS still use
the real address.
Gated by RUSTFS_INTERNODE_CHANNEL_ISOLATION (default OFF) so the default build
is byte-for-byte the pre-P1 behavior: bulk resolves to the control channel and
the switch is a single-env rollback. RUSTFS_INTERNODE_BULK_CHANNELS (default 2,
clamped >=1) sizes the pool. On failure, evict_failed_connection drops the whole
bulk pool for the peer (round-robin hides which index was used), avoiding
half-dead cached channels.
Lock RPCs (remote_locker) already use the default Control path, so lock
semantics and retry behavior are unchanged.
Verification: cargo check/test on config, protos, ecstore, rustfs; new protos
tests for bulk key routing and isolation-off passthrough; clippy clean on
touched files; make pre-commit green.

* feat(internode): P2 msgpack/JSON codec observability + encode buffer presizing
Land the safe, wire-compatible slice of P2 from docs/grpc-optimization: the
observability prerequisite for retiring the redundant JSON fields, plus a codec
micro-optimization. No proto/wire-format change; JSON is still dual-written.
Internode RPCs today dual-encode each metadata value as both msgpack (`*_bin`)
and a JSON compatibility string, and decoders prefer `_bin` with a JSON
fallback. Before the JSON fields can ever be dropped (a cross-version change),
that fallback must be proven unused in production.
Add rustfs_system_network_internode_msgpack_json_fallback_total{direction,
message}: incremented whenever a decode falls back to the JSON field because the
msgpack payload was absent. Wired into both directions — the client decoding
peer responses (remote_disk.rs, incl. the list-level read_multiple/batch
fallbacks) and the server decoding peer requests (node_service/disk.rs). This
counter must read zero across a release window before send paths stop writing
JSON and the proto text fields are reserved/removed (the deferred P2-1 steps).
Also pre-size the msgpack encode buffers (Vec::with_capacity(512)) on both
sides, eliminating the repeated growth reallocations for typical FileInfo
payloads with zero added copy. Full thread_local buffer pooling is deferred: it
needs either an extra copy (unclear net win) or a send-path buffer-return
lifecycle, to be justified by a codec microbenchmark first.
Verification: cargo check/test on io-metrics, ecstore, rustfs; new fallback
counter smoke test; existing codec decode tests green; clippy clean on touched
files; make pre-commit green.

* docs(internode): add msgpack/JSON convergence observation runbook
Runbook driving the observation-gated retirement of the redundant JSON
compatibility fields on internode gRPC metadata RPCs (grpc-optimization P2-1).
Documents the shipped fallback counter
(rustfs_system_network_internode_msgpack_json_fallback_total{direction,message}),
the PromQL to confirm it reads zero across a release window, a standing alert,
and the staged flip/rollback procedure (env-gated msgpack-only send, then proto
field removal in N+1).
Includes the verified field -> peer-decoder audit: only fields whose peer
decodes _bin first may be converged. Notes DeleteVersion.opts (DeleteOptions) is
NOT convergence-ready — its server handler is not _bin-first and must gain a
decode_msgpack_or_json path first. This gates the send-side change so it cannot
empty a JSON field an old peer still needs.
Co-Authored-By: heihutu <heihutu@gmail.com>
* feat(internode): env-gated msgpack-only send + DeleteVersion _bin support (P2-1)
Implements the send-side lever for retiring the redundant JSON compatibility
fields on internode gRPC metadata RPCs, plus the missing `_bin` support on the
delete path that it depends on (grpc-optimization P2-1). Default-off: the base
build is byte-for-byte the prior dual-write behavior.
Gated msgpack-only send (RUSTFS_INTERNODE_RPC_MSGPACK_ONLY, default false):
- New rustfs_protos::internode_rpc_msgpack_only() reads the flag.
- Client (remote_disk.rs) compat_json() and server (node_service/disk.rs)
compat_response_json() emit an empty JSON string when the flag is on, so only
the msgpack _bin payload is sent. The _bin field is always sent; decoders keep
the JSON read fallback. Applied only to fields with a confirmed _bin-first peer
decoder (WriteMetadata/UpdateMetadata/RenameData file_info, UpdateMetadata opts,
ReadOptions, ReadMultipleReq, BatchReadVersionReq; ReadVersion/ReadXL/RenameData
responses and the ReadMultiple/BatchReadVersion response lists).
- Only enable after the P2 fallback counter has read zero across a release window
(see docs/operations/internode-msgpack-json-convergence-runbook.md). Single-env
rollback; no wire-format break.
DeleteVersion(s) _bin support (prerequisite):
- The DeleteVersion/DeleteVersions protos had NO _bin fields. Add additive
(backward-compatible) bytes file_info_bin/opts_bin (DeleteVersion) and repeated
bytes versions_bin + bytes opts_bin (DeleteVersions); regenerate the checked-in
prost struct.
- Client dual-writes them; server decodes them _bin-first with JSON fallback.
- These delete fields are kept OUT of the msgpack-only set (always dual-write)
until their own fallback counter reads zero across a window with the new
decoders fully deployed. DeleteVersion.raw_file_info stays JSON-only (no _bin
field yet).
Verification: cargo check/test on protos, config, ecstore, rustfs (incl. the six
delete request handler tests and a compat_json default-path test); clippy clean
on touched files; make pre-commit green.

* feat(internode): P3 cluster peer online/offline health metric
Land the safe observability core of P3 (grpc-optimization G6/G8): track each
internode peer's reachability and expose the offline count, for parity with
MinIO's minio_cluster_servers_offline_total. Pure instrumentation — peer
selection and quorum are unchanged.
- io-metrics: per-peer PeerHealthState { online, consecutive_failures } registry
plus record_peer_reachable/record_peer_unreachable. A peer flips offline after
N consecutive failures (dial failures or RPC-triggered evictions) and back
online on the next successful dial; the count of offline peers is published to
the rustfs_cluster_servers_offline_total gauge.
- config: RUSTFS_INTERNODE_OFFLINE_FAILURE_THRESHOLD (default 3, clamped >= 1).
- protos: build_channel marks the peer reachable on a successful dial and
unreachable on a dial failure; evict_failed_connection feeds the failure signal
too. Keyed by the real peer address, so control and bulk channels to one peer
share health state.
Deferred (documented in docs/grpc-optimization P3): startup prewarm (no clean
topology-ready hook yet), the offline fast-bypass in peer routing (consistency-
sensitive; must not change quorum), and idempotent-read-only retry. This commit
is observability only.
Verification: cargo check/test on io-metrics, config, protos (new peer-health
state-machine and threshold-clamp tests); clippy clean on touched files; make
pre-commit green.

* feat(internode): P3 control-channel prewarm + self-healing offline bypass
Add the remaining P3 connection-lifecycle levers (grpc-optimization G6/G8), both
env-gated and default-off so the base build is unchanged.
Prewarm (RUSTFS_INTERNODE_PREWARM, default off): RemoteDisk::new spawns a
best-effort background dial of the peer's control channel, deduped per peer
address, moving the connect cost off the first RPC. Failures fall through to the
existing lazy connect + recovery monitor.
Offline bypass (RUSTFS_INTERNODE_OFFLINE_BYPASS, default off): remote_disk
get_client/get_bulk_client fast-fail a peer already marked offline instead of
paying the connect timeout, so the erasure layer proceeds on quorum sooner. This
does NOT change quorum. It is self-healing: cluster_peer_should_bypass lets one
request per RUSTFS_INTERNODE_OFFLINE_REPROBE_SECS (default 5s) through to recover
the peer even with no background monitor, and the recovery monitor's own probe
path calls the client directly so it is never bypassed.
io-metrics gains cluster_peer_is_offline / cluster_peer_should_bypass (with a
per-peer re-probe timestamp). Scope: data path only — remote_locker (lock RPCs,
most consistency-sensitive) is left dual-writing/unbypassed as a follow-up.
Verification: cargo check/test on io-metrics, config, ecstore (new self-healing
bypass tests; all 105 rpc tests green); clippy clean on touched files; make
pre-commit green.

* docs(internode): add A/B benchmark runbook for gRPC optimization stages
Reproducible before/after collection procedure for grpc-optimization P0–P3.
Since every stage is env-gated, before/after is the same binary with different
env — no rebuild. Documents, per stage: the exact env toggles (baseline vs
enabled column), which existing bench script to run
(run_internode_transport_baseline.sh / run_four_node_cluster_failover_bench.sh),
the Prometheus metrics to capture, and the acceptance gates from the design docs
(e.g. lock p99 down >= 20% for P1, msgpack fallback counter = 0 before enabling
P2, correct rustfs_cluster_servers_offline_total for P3).
Live runs require a multi-node cluster + load tool + Prometheus scrape and cannot
be produced in a single-process sandbox; artifacts land under target/bench
(gitignored) and attach to the PR.

* feat(internode): P3-2 lock-path offline bypass + P3-3 idempotent read retry
Extend the offline bypass to the lock path and add opt-in retries for idempotent
reads (grpc-optimization P3-2/P3-3). Both env-gated and default-off/zero.
Offline bypass (lock path): factor the bypass decision into a shared pub(crate)
internode_offline_bypass_reason(addr) and call it from remote_locker::get_client
too, so lock RPCs to an offline peer fast-fail (letting dsync reach quorum
sooner) instead of paying the connect timeout. Does not change quorum; the
self-healing re-probe keeps peers recoverable. Gated by
RUSTFS_INTERNODE_OFFLINE_BYPASS (default off).
Idempotent read retry (P3-3): add execute_read_with_retry — a bounded,
exponential-backoff retry for read-only/reentrant RPCs on transient network
errors — and route disk_info through it. RUSTFS_INTERNODE_IDEMPOTENT_READ_RETRIES
defaults to 0 (disabled). Write/lock RPCs are never retried (quorum/idempotency
safety, per CLAUDE.md); the wrapper requires an Fn closure so only reads that
rebuild their request from borrowed inputs qualify.
Deferred: grpc.health.v1 (optional ecosystem-compat only; needs a new
tonic-health dep and 3-way hybrid-service wiring — internal needs are met by the
existing Ping RPC).
Verification: cargo check/test on config, ecstore (105 rpc tests green incl.
disk_info now via the retry wrapper); clippy clean on touched files; make
pre-commit green.

* feat(scripts): one-click internode gRPC A/B benchmark driver
Wrap the per-stage env matrix from the benchmark runbook into
scripts/run_internode_grpc_ab_bench.sh: given --stage <p0|p1|p2|p3> and --phase
<before|after>, it emits the stage/phase RUSTFS_INTERNODE_* server env to
<out-dir>/server-env.sh and runs the right underlying bench
(run_internode_transport_baseline.sh for p0/p1/p2, run_four_node_cluster_failover_bench.sh
for p3) into a labeled target/bench/internode-transport/<stage>-<phase>/.
Passthrough args after `--` reach the underlying bench; --dry-run previews the
env + command. The script is explicit that RUSTFS_INTERNODE_* are server env, so
for the load-driven stages the operator must restart rustfs with the emitted env
before the run; the docker four-node (p3) path exports them for a forwarding
compose. shellcheck-clean.
Runbook updated with a "One-click driver" section.

* chore(compose): forward RUSTFS_INTERNODE_* into the four-node cluster
The four-node local-build compose only forwarded a fixed whitelist of env, so
the internode gRPC knobs (grpc-optimization P0-P3) never reached the containers
and the A/B bench driver's "after" phase was a no-op. Forward the full
RUSTFS_INTERNODE_* set with defaults matching the binary defaults, so leaving
them unset is a no-op and the A/B driver can toggle a stage per phase.

* fix(internode): address Copilot review — retry health action + poison-safe peer health
Two review nits on #4337:
- P3-3 idempotent read retry (remote_disk.rs): execute_read_with_retry ran every
attempt through execute_with_timeout_for_op, which hardcodes
FailureHealthAction::MarkFailure. So the first transient error could flip the
disk faulty and short-circuit the remaining retries, and each attempt
over-counted the failure. Route all but the final attempt through
execute_with_timeout_for_op_and_health_action with IgnoreFailure; only the last
attempt marks faulty/evicts. No default impact (retries default 0).
- Peer-health helpers (io-metrics): record_peer_reachable/record_peer_unreachable,
cluster_peer_is_offline and cluster_peer_should_bypass early-returned on a
poisoned mutex, permanently stalling the offline gauge and bypass state after a
single panic. Recover via PoisonError::into_inner().
Verification: cargo check/test on io-metrics + ecstore (105 rpc tests green);
clippy clean on touched files; make pre-commit green.

Add two durable architecture references grounded in current code:
- minio-rustfs-router-compatibility.md: MinIO cmd/api-router.go (S3
object/bucket) and cmd/admin-router.go (admin /v3, /v4) vs RustFS
implementation status, with per-row landing points and a gaps-only
checklist of still-missing admin endpoints (profiling, healthinfo,
LDAP IDP config, replication diff, MRF, batch, locks, speedtest,
log stream, top, trace).
- minio-file-format-compat.md: xl.meta (meta_ver 3 write, <=3 read,
XL2 magic, rs-vandermonde, HighwayHash256 bitrot, inline data) and
.metadata.bin bucket-metadata interop matrix for the backlog#580
items, plus old-RustFS -> new migration and a phased plan.
Cross-links s3-compatibility-matrix.md and admin-route-action-snapshot.md
and indexes both docs in docs/architecture/README.md.
Refs rustfs/backlog#596rustfs/backlog#603rustfs/backlog#580
Agent-instruction and architecture docs had drifted from the code:
- CLAUDE.md: slim to commands + pointers; fix wrong claim that
`make pre-commit` is the full pre-PR gate (that is `make pre-pr`);
drop stale pre-#3929 file paths and merged bug narratives
- AGENTS.md: drop dead `rust-refactor-helper` skill rule and the
hand-maintained (already stale) scoped-AGENTS index; link
architecture docs from Sources of Truth
- .github/AGENTS.md: replace the outdated copied CI command matrix
with a pointer to ci.yml
- crates/AGENTS.md: merge duplicated Testing sections
- ARCHITECTURE.md: resolve the utils->config contradiction (edges are
removed), mark volatile counts as snapshots, fix a bad path
- docs/architecture: add README router; move one-shot plans/trackers
(rebalance-decommission phases, migration-progress ledger, PR
template) to docs/superpowers/plans with archive headers; fix stale
source paths in kept inventories (core/sets.rs, core/pools.rs,
store/mod.rs, startup_* split from #3671)
- docs/operations/tier-ilm-debugging.md: extracted tier debugging
playbook with corrected paths
- scripts/check_doc_paths.sh: new guard failing pre-commit/pre-pr when
instruction/architecture docs reference nonexistent file paths
- .claude/skills: add tier-debug and arch-checks repo skills;
.gitignore now keeps .claude/skills and docs/operations committable
Verification: ./scripts/check_doc_paths.sh,
./scripts/check_architecture_migration_rules.sh (both pass)
