Tommy van der VorstandGitHub d23cd197e1 chore(fs): changes to allow Filesystem to be implemented externally (#10040)
### Purpose

The `fs.Filesystem` interface contains two parts that cannot be
implemented externally because they are private:

* `filesystemWrapperType`: this PR changes `unwrapFilesystem` to
downcast to a specific concrete type
* `underlying`: this PR simply moves it to an unexported interface

### Testing

Regular tests pass.

3297624037 lib/ignore: Optimise ignoring directories for filesystem watcher (fixes #9339) (#9340)
This improves the ignore handling so that directories can be fully
ignored (skipped in the watcher) in more cases. Specifically, where the
previous rule was that any complex `!`-pattern would disable skipping
directories, the new rule is that only matches on patterns *after* such
a `!`-pattern disable skipping. That is, the following now does the
intuitive thing:

```
/foo
/bar
!whatever
*
```

- `/foo/**` and `/bar/**` are completely skipped, since there is no
chance anything underneath them could ever be not-ignored
- `!whatever` toggles the "can't skip directories any more" flag
- Anything that matches `*` can't skip directories, because it's
possible we can have `whatever` match something deeper.

To enable this, some refactoring was necessary:

- The "can skip dirs" flag is now a property of the match result, not of
the pattern set as a whole.
- That meant returning a boolean is not good enough, we need to actually
return the entire `Result` (or, like, two booleans but that seemed
uglier and more annoying to use)
- `ShouldIgnore(string) boolean` went away with
`Match(string).IsIgnored()` being the obvious replacement (API
simplification!)
- The watcher then needed to import the `ignore` package (for the
`Result` type), but `fs` imports the watcher and `ignore` imports `fs`.
That's a cycle, so I broke out `Result` into a package of its own so
that it can be safely imported everywhere in things like `type Matcher
interface { Match(string) result.Result }`. There's a fair amount of
stuttering in `result.Result` and maybe we should go with something like
`ignoreresult.R` or so, leaving this open for discussion.

Tests refactored to suit, I think this change is in fact quite well
covered by the existing ones...

Also some noise because a few of the changed files were quite old and
got the `gofumpt` treatment by my editor. Sorry not sorry.

6cac308bcd all: Support syncing extended attributes (fixes #2698) (#8513)
This adds support for syncing extended attributes on supported
filesystem on Linux, macOS, FreeBSD and NetBSD. Windows is currently
excluded because the APIs seem onerous and annoying and frankly the uses
cases seem few and far between. On Unixes this also covers ACLs as those
are stored as extended attributes.

Similar to ownership syncing this will optional & opt-in, which two
settings controlling the main behavior: one to "sync" xattrs (read &
write) and another one to "scan" xattrs (only read them so other devices
can "sync" them, but not apply any locally).

Jakob BorgandGitHub adce6fa473 all: Support syncing ownership (fixes #1329) (#8434)
This adds support for syncing ownership on Unixes and on Windows. The
scanner always picks up ownership information, but it is not applied
unless the new folder option "Sync Ownership" is set.

Ownership data is stored in a new FileInfo field called "platform data". This
is intended to hold further platform-specific data in the future
(specifically, extended attributes), which is why the whole design is a
bit overkill for just ownership.

Jakob BorgandGitHub 780fb3bac1 lib/fs: More efficient casefs cache (#6974)
This changes the cache to cache less things, yet retain the required
efficiency for our walk usecase. This uses less memory.

Specifically, instead of keeping result and child caches for each path
level, only keep a single cached child. In practice our operations are
depth-first, or almost depth-first, and then we retain the same hit
ratio for a smaller cache size.

I improved the benchmark so that it counts the Lstat and DirNames
operations performed, and they do not change significantly. The amount
of allocated memory is reduced by 20% and the walk itself is actually
slightly faster.

This also removes the clear based on number of cached names (as that is
not a thing any more) and the timer based clear (which was unused). This
means we'll retain the last cache state forever until it's cleared by a
write operation, but we did that before too and that state is now a lot
smaller...

The overhead compared to not using a casefs, for our typical "double
walk" (walk the tree then stat everything again) is 2x the dirnames we
would otherwise call, and no overhead on the stats (unchanged from old
implementation)

Jakob BorgandGitHub 75dcff0a0e all: Copy owner/group from parent (fixes #5445) (#5479)
This adds a folder option "CopyOwnershipFromParent" which, when set,
makes Syncthing attempt to retain the owner/group information when
syncing files. Specifically, at the finisher stage we look at the parent
dir to get owner/group and then attempt a Lchown call on the temp file.
For this to succeed Syncthing must be running with the appropriate
permissions. On Linux this is CAP_FOWNER, which can be granted by the
service manager on startup or set on the binary in the filesystem. Other
operating systems do other things, but often it's not required to run as
full "root". On Windows this patch does nothing - ownership works
differently there and is generally less of a deal, as permissions are
inherited as ACLs anyway.

There are unit tests on the Lchown functionality, which requires the
above permissions to run. There is also a unit test on the folder which
uses the fake filesystem and hence does not need special permissions.

Jakob BorgandAudrius Butkevicius d27463268d lib/fs: Add fakefs (#5235)
* lib/fs: Add fakefs

This adds a new fake filesystem type. It's described rather extensively
in fakefs.go, but the main point is that it's for testing: when you want
to spin up a Syncthing and have a terabyte or two of random files that
can be synced somewhere, or an inifitely large filesystem to sync files
into.

It has pseudorandom properties such that data read from one fakefs can
be written into another fakefs and read back and it will look
consistent, without any of the data actually being stored.

To use:

    <folder id="default" path="whatever" ...>
        <filesystemType>fake</filesystemType>

This will create an empty fake filesystem. You can also specify that it
should be prefilled with files:

    <folder id="default" path="whatever?size=2000000" ...>
        <filesystemType>fake</filesystemType>

This will create a filesystem filled with 2TB of random data that can be
scanned and synced. There are more options, see fakefs.go.

Prefilled data is based on a deterministic seed, so you can index the
data and restart Syncthing and the index is still correct for all the
stored data.

Antony MaleandJakob Borg db03562d43 lib/scanner: Fix UTF-8 normalization on ZFS (fixes #4649)
It turns out that ZFS doesn't do any normalization when storing files,
but does do normalization "as part of any comparison process".

In practice, this seems to mean that if you LStat a normalized filename,
ZFS will return the FileInfo for the un-normalized version of that
filename.

This meant that our test to see whether a separate file with a
normalized version of the filename already exists was failing, as we
were detecting the same file.

The fix is to use os.SameFile, to see whether we're getting the same
FileInfo from the normalized and un-normalized versions of the same
filename.

One complication is that ZFS also seems to apply its magic to os.Rename,
meaning that we can't use it to rename an un-normalized file to its
normalized filename. Instead we have to move via a temporary object. If
the move to the temporary object fails, that's OK, we can skip it and
move on. If the move from the temporary object fails however, I'm not
sure of the best approach: the current one is to leave the temporary
file name as-is, and get Syncthing to syncronize it, so at least we
don't lose the file. I'm not sure if there are any implications of this
however.

As part of reworking normalizePath, I spotted that it appeared to be
returning the wrong thing: the doc and the surrounding code expecting it
to return the normalized filename, but it was returning the
un-normalized one. I fixed this, but it seems suspicious that, if the
previous behaviour was incorrect, noone ever ran afoul of it. Maybe all
filesystems will do some searching and give you a normalized filename if
you request an unnormalized one.

As part of this, I found that TestNormalization was broken: it was
passing, when in fact one of the files it should have verified was
present was missing. Maybe this was related to the above issue with
normalizePath's return value, I'm not sure. Fixed en route.

Kindly tested by @khinsen on the forum, and it appears to work.

Audrius ButkeviciusandJakob Borg 3d8b4a42b7 all: Convert folders to use filesystem abstraction
GitHub-Pull-Request: https://github.com/syncthing/syncthing/pull/4228

Jakob BorgandAudrius Butkevicius d6fbfc3545 lib/fs, lib/model, lib/scanner: Make scans cancellable (fixes #3965)
The folder already knew how to stop properly, but the fs.Walk() didn't
and can potentially take a very long time. This adds context support to
Walk and the underlying scanning stuff, and passes in an appropriate
context from above. The stop channel in model.folder is replaced with a
context for this purpose.

To test I added an infiniteFS that represents a large amount of data
(not actually infinite, but close) and verify that walking it is
properly stopped. For that to be implemented smoothly I moved out the
Walk function to it's own type, as typically the implementer of a new
filesystem type might not need or want to reimplement Walk.

It's somewhat tricky to test that this actually works properly on the
actual sendReceiveFolder and so on, as those are started from inside the
model and the filesystem isn't easily pluggable etc. Instead I've tested
that part manually by adding a huge folder and verifying that pause,
resume and reconfig do the right things by looking at debug output.
