+Scanner cycle budget controls:
+
+- When `RUSTFS_SCANNER_CYCLE_MAX_DURATION_SECS` is unset, the finite default is 1800 seconds (30 minutes), matching the scanner benchmark guidance.
+- An explicit `0` preserves the compatibility behavior of an unbounded runtime budget. Object and directory budgets likewise remain unbounded when explicitly set to `0`.
+- A timed-out cycle cancels cooperative scanner work, then fences its leader epoch before releasing the lease. An uncooperative I/O operation is dropped after the bounded shutdown window; its cursor is not claimed to be durable and the scanner reports `recovery-required` when the worker cannot stop cooperatively, the cycle state was not confirmed durable, or epoch fencing cannot be persisted.

Zhengchao An	3ddf1a81ac	test(kms): replace 33 hard-coded startup sleeps with readiness probe (#6349 ) * refactor(e2e/kms): replace fixed startup sleeps with KMS readiness probe Replace 33 hard-coded sleep(3s) / sleep(2s) startup waits in KMS e2e tests with an active readiness probe (wait_for_kms_ready) that polls the KMS status endpoint with exponential backoff (200ms→1s, 5s budget). This cuts per-test startup latency from a fixed 3s to ~200-500ms while remaining robust against slow CI machines. Non-startup sleeps (ILM polling loops, fault-recovery detection delays, test-runner inter-test pauses) are left untouched. * style: cargo fmt * fix(kms): use .expect() instead of ? in test functions that return () 7 call sites of wait_for_kms_ready() used ? in async test functions that return () instead of Result.

houseme	0e79106c2f	fix(storageclass): use div_ceil for inline threshold to match shard size calc (#6390 ) The inline_block threshold used floor division (DEFAULT_INLINE_OBJECT_BUDGET / data_shards) while shard_file_size uses ceiling division (div_ceil). For EC 12:4 with 256KiB objects, this caused a 1-byte discrepancy: - inline_block = 262144 / 12 = 21845 (floor) - shard_file_size = 262144.div_ceil(12) = 21846 (ceil) - should_inline(21846, 12, false) = false (wrong!) Fix by using div_ceil for the inline_block calculation, so both sides use the same rounding and the inline path is correctly triggered.
