Architecture Migration Progress

Status values: [ ] not started, [~] in progress, [x] complete, [!] blocked.

Current Context

• Issue: rustfs/backlog#660
• Branch: overtrue/arch-storage-api-bound-narrowing
• Baseline: origin/main at 6b86e3875c4912f3a7c27915b0bbd43399402847
• PR type for this branch: dependency-migration
• Runtime behavior changes: none.
• Rust code changes: narrow metadata helper generic bounds away from full StorageAPI where helpers only need object I/O, object metadata/delete, bucket listing, object listing, or StorageAdminApi.
• CI/script changes: none.
• Docs changes: record API-008 completion and the current bound-narrowing context, verification evidence, and expert review outcomes.

Phase 0 Tasks

• G-001 Refresh main and record baseline.
  • Acceptance: baseline commit, title, and branch are recorded.
  • Verification: git fetch upstream main --prune; git rev-parse upstream/main.
• G-002 Create migration tracking checklist.
  • Acceptance: this file records task state, context, verification, and handoff.
• G-003 Classify PR types.
  • Acceptance: crate-boundaries.md lists exactly one allowed PR type per PR.
• G-004 Define re-export and wrapper policy.
  • Acceptance: temporary compatibility code must use RUSTFS_COMPAT_TODO.
• G-005 Add dependency direction guard.
  • Acceptance: ./scripts/check_layer_dependencies.sh passes on current upstream/main while still rejecting new unaccepted layer dependencies.
• [~] G-006 Create migration loss-prevention checks.
  • Current branch: add a mechanical admin route matrix guard from admin-route-action-snapshot.md and rustfs/src/admin/route_registration_test.rs.
  • Remaining follow-up: add checks for public re-export and storage trait coverage before pure moves.
• G-007 Create startup timeline table.
  • Acceptance: startup-timeline.md records current binary startup order, side effects, fatal boundaries, and readiness stages.
• G-008 Capture admin route-action snapshot.
  • Acceptance: admin-route-action-snapshot.md records current route families, handler ownership, authorization actions, public exceptions, table-catalog routes, and /minio/admin compatibility alias behavior.
• G-009 Enforce pre-push three-expert review.
  • Acceptance: crate-boundaries.md requires quality/architecture, migration-preservation, and testing/verification review before push.
• G-010 Inventory ecstore::config::{Config, KV, KVS} consumers.
  • Acceptance: ecstore-config-consumer-inventory.md records the current model definitions, global accessors, persistence helpers, consumer groups, migration risks, and do-not-change contract.
• TEST-PRTYPE-001 Check PR type enum consistency.
  • Acceptance: ./scripts/check_architecture_migration_rules.sh parses the allowed PR types from crate-boundaries.md and fails when ARCHITECTURE.md or architecture docs reference an unknown PR type.
• COMPAT-REG-001 Check temporary compatibility cleanup consistency.
  • Acceptance: ./scripts/check_architecture_migration_rules.sh fails when a source RUSTFS_COMPAT_TODO(<task-id>) marker lacks a cleanup-register entry, when a register entry lacks a source marker, or when a source marker omits a removal condition.

Phase 1a Config Model Tasks

• CFG-001 Inventory ecstore::config::{Config, KV, KVS} consumers.
  • Acceptance: ecstore-config-consumer-inventory.md records the current definitions, persistence helpers, global accessors, consumer groups, migration risks, and do-not-change contract.
• CFG-002 Decide model boundary.
  • Acceptance: config-model-boundary-adr.md records rustfs-config as the target package, server_config as the future model module, allowed dependencies, forbidden dependencies, preserved shape, and extraction verification gates.
• CFG-003 Move pure model definitions.
  • Next boundary: move only Config, KV, KVS, and default-registration surface into rustfs-config; keep persistence helpers and global server-config state in ecstore.
• CFG-004 Keep old ecstore::config::* compatibility path.
  • Required compatibility: source must contain RUSTFS_COMPAT_TODO(CFG-004) and a matching cleanup-register entry.

Phase 1 Security Governance Tasks

• S-001 Add crates/security-governance.
  • Acceptance: the crate is a workspace member and has no dependency on rustfs, ecstore, admin handlers, Axum, or runtime state.
  • Verification: cargo check -p rustfs-security-governance.
• S-002 Add admin route matrix core types.
  • Acceptance: AdminRouteSpec, AdminRouteAccess, AdminActionRef, PublicRouteKind, RouteRiskLevel, and validation errors model route governance metadata without registering routes or enforcing auth.
  • Verification: cargo test -p rustfs-security-governance.
• S-003 Add redaction contract types.
  • Acceptance: RedactionRule, RedactionLevel, and validation errors model sensitive field handling without logging, masking, or runtime integration.
  • Verification: cargo test -p rustfs-security-governance.
• S-004 Add serde policy marker types.
  • Acceptance: SerdePolicy, SerdePolicyKind, UnknownFieldPolicy, and validation errors model strict ingress and compatibility serde contracts without changing deserialization behavior.
  • Verification: cargo test -p rustfs-security-governance.
• S-005 Add supply-chain policy contract types.
  • Acceptance: ArtifactIntegrityPolicy, ArtifactSourceKind, and validation errors model digest, signature, and provenance requirements without changing release or CI behavior.
  • Verification: cargo test -p rustfs-security-governance.
• S-006 Add rustfs/src/admin/route_policy.rs backed by these contract types, without changing route registration or auth behavior.
  • Acceptance: direct AdminRouteSpec entries cover routes with a single stable admin policy action, deferred inventory records routes that need richer contract support, and tests prove the combined inventory covers every registered admin route.
• S-011 Add KMS action taxonomy.
  • Acceptance: KmsAction can parse and serialize dedicated configure, service-control, clear-cache, generate-data-key, delete, rotate, list, and describe actions; wildcard matching still works.
  • Verification: cargo test -p rustfs-policy action --no-fail-fast.
• S-012 Migrate KMS handlers to dedicated actions.
  • Acceptance: KMS data-key, delete/cancel-delete, cache, configure, service-control, list, and describe handlers use dedicated kms:* actions.
  • Compatibility: legacy KMS create/status admin actions are retained only as temporary compatibility paths and registered in compat-cleanup-register.md.
  • Verification: focused handler and route policy tests, migration rules, formatting, and make pre-commit.
• S-013 Apply KMS redaction.
  • Acceptance: KMS Debug output and admin status response summaries contain no Vault token, AppRole secret ID, or local master key values.
  • Must preserve: internal KMS config values remain available to runtime code and persisted config serialization still writes the original secret values.
  • Verification: focused KMS redaction/status tests, full KMS tests, migration guards, Rust quality scan, clippy, and make pre-commit passed.
• KMSD-001 Inventory KMS development defaults.
  • Acceptance: kms-development-defaults-inventory.md records Local and Vault defaults for missing master keys, temp key dirs, HTTP Vault addresses, default dev-token credentials, and skip-TLS behavior.
  • Must preserve: no KMS runtime behavior, config serialization, authorization, startup order, storage path, or crate boundary changes.
  • Verification: docs diff review, migration guards, metrics reference guard, and git diff --check.

Phase 2 Storage API Tasks

• API-001 Add crates/storage-api.

  • Acceptance: rustfs-storage-api is a workspace member and remains a dependency-free contract crate.
  • Verification: cargo check -p rustfs-storage-api.

• API-002 Move public storage error/result contracts.

  • Current PR: rustfs/rustfs#3313 merged.
  • Completed slice: add public StorageErrorCode and StorageResult contracts in rustfs-storage-api, then make ECStore StorageError::to_u32/from_u32 consume the shared code table.
  • Deferred: keep the full ECStore StorageError enum and ECStore-specific conversions in rustfs-ecstore until the DiskError, filemeta, lock, and std::io::Error downcast boundary is proven safe.
  • Acceptance: storage-api contract tests pass, ECStore compatibility tests prove numeric codes match the new contract, and cargo check -p rustfs-storage-api -p rustfs-ecstore passes.
  • Must preserve: storage error display, conversions, object error mapping, quorum classification, and reserved code gaps 0x2B/0x2C.
  • Risk defense: no storage hot-path enum move in this PR; only numeric code mapping uses the new contract.

• API-003 Move DTOs.

  • Current PR: rustfs/rustfs#3314 merged.
  • Completed slice: move the pure bucket/options DTO subset: MakeBucketOptions, SRBucketDeleteOp, DeleteBucketOptions, BucketOptions, and BucketInfo.
  • Acceptance: rustfs-storage-api exports these DTOs, ECStore re-exports them from the old ecstore::store_api path, and compatibility cleanup is registered with RUSTFS_COMPAT_TODO(API-003).
  • Must preserve: no ObjectOptions, ObjectInfo, reader, compression, encryption, filemeta conversion, multipart conversion, route, storage, or runtime behavior changes in this PR.

• API-006 Add disk inventory/admin trait.

  • Current PR: rustfs/rustfs#3330 merged.
  • Completed slice: add StorageAdminApi and DiskSetSelector to rustfs-storage-api.
  • Acceptance: StorageAdminApi exposes backend info, global storage info, local storage info, disk-set inventory, and drive-count surfaces without depending on ECStore implementation types.
  • Must preserve: no StorageAPI::get_disks removal, no ECStore implementation change, no admin/readiness/capacity behavior change.
  • Risk defense: use associated types for backend/storage/disk DTOs so this contract slice does not pull rustfs-madmin or rustfs-ecstore into rustfs-storage-api.
  • Verification: focused storage-api tests, dependency tree, migration guards, formatting, and diff hygiene.

• API-007 Dual-route get_disks consumers.

  • Completed first slice: rustfs/rustfs#3331 bound ECStore to StorageAdminApi while keeping all consumers unchanged.
  • Completed second slice: rustfs/rustfs#3332 migrated the admin storage-class config drive-count consumer to StorageAdminApi::set_drive_counts.
  • Completed third slice: rustfs/rustfs#3333 migrated DefaultAdminUsecase storage-info reads to StorageAdminApi::storage_info.
  • Completed fourth slice: rustfs/rustfs#3334 migrated account-info backend_info, rebalance status storage_info, and runtime readiness storage_info.
  • Completed fifth slice: rustfs/rustfs#3335 migrated grouped observability, RPC health, server-info, realtime metrics, and notification read-side consumers.
  • Completed sixth slice: rustfs/rustfs#3336 migrated ECStore internal decommission space, local-storage-info, backend-info, drive-count, and disk-inventory admin handlers away from old StorageAPI method calls.
  • Completed seventh slice: rustfs/rustfs#3337 migrated maintenance and background read-side storage inventory consumers in rebalance metadata initialization, heal resume disk lookup, and scanner local disk scan lookup.
  • Completion acceptance: admin inventory consumers no longer use old StorageAPI calls for backend info, storage info, local storage info, drive-count, or disk-set inventory when the inventory-facing StorageAdminApi contract represents the same read-only operation.

• API-008 Remove duplicate old-path admin surfaces.

  • Completed slice: rustfs/rustfs#3340 removed duplicate admin-read methods from the old StorageAPI trait and its ECStore/Sets/SetDisks/test implementations after API-007 migrated their consumers.
  • Acceptance: old StorageAPI keeps storage operation traits and new_ns_lock, while admin inventory surfaces live only on StorageAdminApi.

• [~] API-009 Narrow metadata helper storage bounds.

  • Current branch slice: narrow server config, tier config, rebalance metadata, and startup metadata migration helper bounds away from full StorageAPI when the helper only needs ObjectIO, ObjectOperations, BucketOperations, ListOperations, or StorageAdminApi.
  • Acceptance: metadata helper contracts express the actual operation group they need, while callers and persistence behavior remain unchanged.
  • Must preserve: config/tier/rebalance serialized byte shapes, read/write object names, legacy bucket/IAM migration normalization and skip behavior, lock behavior around rebalance metadata merge, dynamic storage-class lookup, object APIs, scanner cache persistence, heal repair, replication persistence, and storage hot paths.
  • Risk defense: do not move traits to rustfs-storage-api, do not remove StorageAPI, do not alter helper bodies or storage options, and keep save_rebalance_meta_with_merge on full StorageAPI because it still needs new_ns_lock.
  • Verification: focused compile/tests, migration guards, Rust risk scan, and required quality/architecture, migration-preservation, and testing/verification review passed before push.

Phase 8 Background Controller Tasks

• BGC-001 Inventory background services.
  • Acceptance: background-services-inventory.md records scanner, heal, lifecycle, replication, config reload, metrics, shutdown, cancellation, and side-effect surfaces before controller work.
  • Must preserve: no code behavior change and no new controller contract in this PR.
  • Verification: docs-only architecture checks and diff hygiene.
• BGC-002 Define minimal controller contract.
  • Acceptance: background-controller-contract.md defines desired/current/status/reconcile vocabulary, status state semantics, service boundaries, and side-effect rules without starting workers or changing scheduling.
  • Must preserve: no Rust trait, scheduler, service registry, worker start/stop path, storage write, readiness change, peer signal, or runtime behavior change.
  • Verification: docs-only architecture checks and diff hygiene.

Next PRs

1. dependency-migration: narrow metadata/helper bounds away from full StorageAPI where the helper only needs a specific operation trait.
2. api-extraction: move only the pure server-config model into rustfs-config as CFG-003.
3. api-extraction: keep the old rustfs_ecstore::config::* path with RUSTFS_COMPAT_TODO(CFG-004) and cleanup-register coverage.
4. consumer-migration: migrate external consumers one group at a time only after the model path and compatibility shim are stable.
5. security-change: make Local KMS unsafe defaults explicit development opt-ins or production failures in KMSD-002.
6. security-change: make Vault unsafe defaults explicit development opt-ins or production failures in KMSD-003.

Pre-Push Review Log

Expert	Status	Notes
Quality/architecture	pass	Confirmed the Rust diff only changes imports/generic bounds, the new operation-group bounds match actual calls, StorageAPI and new_ns_lock remain where needed, and no over-abstraction, naming regression, dependency reversal, or hot-path intrusion was found.
Migration preservation	pass	Confirmed config/tier/rebalance byte shapes, object names, buckets, options, bucket/IAM normalization and skip behavior, dynamic storage-class lookup, and rebalance metadata merge locking remain unchanged.
Testing/verification	pass	Confirmed the focused compile, config/tier/rebalance/bucket migration tests, migration guards, diff hygiene, and added-line Rust risk scan are sufficient; full pre-commit can be skipped under the current larger-granularity instruction.

• Rust code-quality scan on changed .rs files: broad full-file matches are pre-existing test/business-code patterns; added-line scan found no new unwrap/expect, numeric cast, Result<_, String>, Box<dyn Error>, println/eprintln, or Ordering::Relaxed.

Notes:

• Full pre-commit is intentionally skipped when the focused tests and guards pass, per the current instruction to increase PR granularity.
• This slice changes generic bounds and imports only; helper bodies, storage options, object names, and metadata normalization logic are unchanged.
• save_rebalance_meta_with_merge intentionally still requires full StorageAPI because it uses new_ns_lock.
• No temporary compatibility shim was added.

Handoff Notes

• Keep this API-009 slice as a dependency-migration PR that only narrows metadata/helper generic bounds for config, tier, rebalance, and startup metadata migration helpers.
• Do not remove StorageAPI itself, object operation traits, or new_ns_lock in this PR.
• Do not move traits into rustfs-storage-api or introduce new compatibility shims in this PR.
• Do not alter config/tier/rebalance serialized byte shapes, legacy bucket/IAM migration normalization, object names, storage options, scanner cache writes, heal object repair, object APIs, replication persistence, or storage hot-path consumers in this PR.
• Do not add temporary compatibility code unless a matching RUSTFS_COMPAT_TODO(<task-id>) marker and cleanup-register entry are added.
