houseme 60ad15a7f9 fix(obs): remove the dial9 task-dump switch that could never work; correct measured claims (#4688)
* fix(obs): remove the dial9 task-dump switch that could never do anything

Measured on a bench host (Linux x86_64) against the code merged in #4663: with
`RUSTFS_RUNTIME_DIAL9_TASK_DUMP_ENABLED=true`, a `dial9-taskdump` build, and
`--cfg tokio_taskdump`, dial9 recorded **zero** TaskDump events.

dial9 captures a task dump only for futures it wrapped itself — those spawned
through `dial9_tokio_telemetry::spawn`, which is where `TaskDumped<F>` gets
applied. `tokio::spawn` gets no wrapper, and RustFS spawns with `tokio::spawn`
throughout. Same workload, same binary, only the spawner changed:

    tokio::spawn   ->      0 dumps
    dial9::spawn   ->  14709 dumps, all with callchains

Upstream documents this (README line 151) and tracks the doc gap at
dial9-rs/dial9#477. I did not read it before wiring `with_task_dumps` in #4663,
and so shipped exactly the kind of lying configuration knob that PR set out to
delete. Remove it: the two environment variables, the config fields, the
`with_task_dumps` call, and the `dial9-taskdump` feature — whose only effect was
to constrain the build to Linux while recording nothing.

Re-adding it only makes sense together with migrating the paths under
investigation to dial9's spawner. Tracked as D9-16 in rustfs/backlog#1157.

Also drop the `--cfg tokio_taskdump` requirement from the Makefile. Measured:
dumps are captured with and without it (14709 vs 14674, within noise), and
upstream never asked for it. That requirement was mine, invented and untested.

Cargo.lock loses tokio's `backtrace` dependency, which `tokio/taskdump` pulled in.

* docs(obs): replace guessed dial9 retention numbers with measured ones

Three corrections, all to claims I wrote in #4663 without measuring them.

"Under a high poll rate that budget can wrap in minutes" was a guess. Measured on
a single-node 4-drive cluster under warp mixed (66 MiB/s, 110 obj/s, 32 concurrent):
13023 events/s, 0.16 MiB/s, so the default 1 GiB budget wraps after roughly 108
minutes. Even at ten times the throughput that is ~11 minutes. State the measured
rate and how to scale it instead.

dial9 was described as the tool for drive stalls. It is not. RustFS does disk I/O
on the blocking pool and through io_uring, never on an async worker, so a slow
drive never lengthens a poll. Injecting 200 ms of latency on one of four drives
cut throughput by 64% and left the poll distribution unchanged (polls >= 5 ms:
49 -> 56; p999: 2.67 ms -> 2.75 ms). Enabling dial9's CPU and sched profilers
does not help: sched events are per-worker only, and the CPU profiler samples
on-CPU while a stalled drive is an off-CPU wait. Say so plainly, and point at
the `rustfs_io_*` metrics instead.

What dial9 *is* good for, on the same traces: single polls of 418-625 ms with no
fault injected at all — real worker stalls nothing else in the obs stack surfaces.
Lead with that.

Also link the two upstream issues filed for the gaps we documented:
dial9-rs/dial9#658 (writer death unobservable) and #659 (worker-s3 CVEs).

Measurements: rustfs/backlog#1157 (D9-11, D9-13, D9-18).

English | Simplified Chinese

RustFS is a high-performance distributed object storage software built using Rust, one of the most popular languages worldwide. Along with MinIO, it shares a range of advantages such as simplicity, broad S3 API compatibility for supported features, open-source nature, support for data lakes, AI, and big data. Furthermore, it has a better and more user-friendly open-source license in comparison to other storage systems, being constructed under the Apache license. As Rust serves as its foundation, RustFS provides faster speed and safer distributed features for high-performance object storage.

Features

  • High Performance: Built with Rust, ensuring speed and efficiency.
  • Distributed Architecture: Scalable and fault-tolerant design for large-scale deployments.
  • S3 Compatibility: Integration with common S3-compatible applications; current coverage is tracked in the S3 compatibility matrix.
  • Data Lake Support: Optimized for big data and AI workloads.
  • Open Source: Licensed under Apache 2.0, encouraging community contributions and transparency.
  • User-Friendly: Designed with simplicity in mind, making it easy to deploy and manage.

Quickstart

To get started with RustFS, follow these steps:

  1. One-click installation script (Option 1)

    curl -O  https://rustfs.com/install_rustfs.sh && bash install_rustfs.sh
    
  2. Docker Quick Start (Option 2)

 # Docker Hub (recommended)
 docker run -d -p 9000:9000 -v /data:/data rustfs/rustfs:latest

 # Alternative using Podman
 podman run -d -p 9000:9000 -v /data:/data rustfs/rustfs:latest
  1. Access the Console: Open your web browser and navigate to http://localhost:9001 to access the RustFS console, default username and password is rustfsadmin .
  2. Create a Bucket: Use the console to create a new bucket for your objects.
  3. Upload Objects: You can upload files directly through the console or use S3-compatible APIs to interact with your RustFS instance.
