Architecture Migration Progress

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

Current Context

• Issue: rustfs/backlog#660
• Branch: overtrue/arch-config-consumers
• Baseline: origin/main at 22059911807158aae9617415a916cf1156558b7b
• PR type for this branch: consumer-migration
• Runtime behavior changes: none.
• Rust code changes: migrate admin/runtime/audit/notify/targets/iam and ECStore service/default model consumers from the temporary rustfs_ecstore::config model path to rustfs_config::server_config, and enable the server-config-model feature in affected crates.
• CI/script changes: none.
• Docs changes: record CFG-005/CFG-006 consumer-migration context, verification evidence, and the preserved ECStore runtime-state boundary.

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.
  • Completed slice: rustfs/rustfs#3351 moved only Config, KV, KVS, and default-registration surface into rustfs-config; persistence helpers and global server-config state remain in ecstore.
  • Must preserve: tuple struct shapes, serde alias behavior, default application, internal JSON shape, and existing persisted config semantics.
• CFG-004 Keep old ecstore::config::* compatibility path.
  • Completed slice: rustfs/rustfs#3351 re-exported moved model types and default-registration surface from rustfs_ecstore::config with RUSTFS_COMPAT_TODO(CFG-004) and cleanup-register coverage.
• CFG-005 Migrate external server-config model consumers.
  • Current branch: migrate admin handlers, admin services, runtime context, server audit/event setup, and the audit/notify/targets/iam crates from the temporary rustfs_ecstore::config::{Config, KV, KVS} model path to rustfs_config::server_config.
  • Acceptance: external consumers use the model crate for pure config types while still using ECStore for persistence helpers, global server-config accessors, storage-class helpers, and startup initialization.
• CFG-006 Migrate ECStore service/default model consumers.
  • Current branch: migrate ECStore config default modules, shared config helpers, and store accessor signatures to the rustfs_config model type while preserving ECStore-owned persistence and runtime state.
  • Acceptance: ECStore internals no longer depend on the old compatibility model import path except the deliberate compatibility smoke test; the old public re-export remains available for downstream callers until CFG-004 is cleaned up.

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.

  • Completed slice: rustfs/rustfs#3343 narrowed 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.

• API-010 Narrow replication resync metadata bounds.

  • Completed slice: rustfs/rustfs#3345 narrowed replication resync status load/save/mark/persist helper bounds away from full StorageAPI when the helper only needs ObjectIO.
  • Acceptance: resync metadata helpers express object-I/O-only persistence requirements, while replication execution, delete replication, multipart replication, object lookups, and scheduling behavior remain on full StorageAPI where needed.

• API-011 Narrow scanner cache helper storage bounds.

  • Completed slice: rustfs/rustfs#3348 narrowed scanner data-usage cache load/save and cache snapshot persistence helper bounds away from full StorageAPI when the helper only needs ObjectIO.
  • Acceptance: scanner cache persistence helpers express object-I/O-only requirements, while scanner cycle orchestration, bucket scanning, local disk selection, cache publication, and storage hot paths remain unchanged.
  • Must preserve: data-usage cache wire format, cache object paths, backup cache paths, retry and timeout behavior, cache-save metrics, publish/update channel behavior, scanner cycle scheduling, disk scan concurrency, bucket scan semantics, lifecycle/replication decisions, and storage hot paths.
  • Risk defense: do not move traits to rustfs-storage-api, do not remove StorageAPI, do not alter helper bodies, and do not narrow scanner paths that need bucket operations, disk inventory, or full storage orchestration.
  • Verification: focused compile/tests, migration guards, Rust risk scan, and required quality/architecture, migration-preservation, and testing/verification review passed.

• API-012 Narrow table catalog object backend bounds.

  • Completed slice: rustfs/rustfs#3350 added a narrow NamespaceLocking operation-group trait as a compatibility facade over StorageAPI::new_ns_lock, then narrowed EcStoreTableCatalogObjectBackend from full StorageAPI to ObjectIO, ObjectOperations, ListOperations, and NamespaceLocking.
  • Acceptance: table catalog object backend contracts express the actual object read/write, metadata/delete, list, and namespace-lock capabilities they need, while table catalog store logic and lock behavior remain unchanged.
  • Must preserve: table catalog object paths, metadata pointer semantics, optimistic write preconditions, object listing pagination, missing-object handling, namespace write-lock acquisition, StorageAPI::new_ns_lock compatibility, object APIs, scanner/heal/replication/config persistence, and storage hot paths.
  • Risk defense: do not remove StorageAPI::new_ns_lock, do not move traits into rustfs-storage-api, do not change lock implementation code, do not alter table catalog method bodies, and track the retained old lock method with RUSTFS_COMPAT_TODO(API-012).
  • Verification: focused compile/tests, migration guards, Rust risk scan, and required quality/architecture, migration-preservation, and testing/verification review passed.

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.

Pre-Push Review Log

Expert	Status	Notes
Quality/architecture	pass	Confirmed this is only a model-consumer migration and feature-gate update; ECStore persistence helpers, global state, startup wiring, config persistence, and storage hot paths stay unchanged.
Migration preservation	pass	Confirmed the old rustfs_ecstore::config model path remains available through RUSTFS_COMPAT_TODO(CFG-004), with no tuple-shape, serde, default, or persisted JSON changes.
Testing/verification	pass	Confirmed focused config/admin/audit/notify/targets/iam tests, compile checks, migration guards, boundary scans, and added-line risk scan are sufficient; full pre-commit is skipped under the current larger-granularity instruction.

Notes:

• Full pre-commit may be skipped if focused tests, compile checks, and guards pass, per the current instruction to increase PR granularity.
• This slice migrates model consumers only. ECStore retains persistence helpers, ConfigSys, global server-config state, storage-class global state, startup wiring, and all storage/config persistence logic.
• The old rustfs_ecstore::config model path intentionally remains as a temporary compatibility re-export with RUSTFS_COMPAT_TODO(CFG-004) and a matching cleanup-register entry.
• The remaining ECStore old-path references are limited to the deliberate compatibility smoke test in crates/ecstore/src/config/mod.rs.

Handoff Notes

• Keep this CFG-005/CFG-006 slice as a consumer-migration PR that only updates model type imports and affected crate feature gates.
• Do not move ConfigSys, GLOBAL_SERVER_CONFIG, storage-class global state, read_config_without_migrate, save_server_config, config-object helpers, startup wiring, storage-class helpers, ECStore persistence helpers, or storage persistence logic in this PR.
• Do not add temporary compatibility code unless a matching RUSTFS_COMPAT_TODO(<task-id>) marker and cleanup-register entry are added.
