Jakob BorgandGitHub 9ee208b441 chore(sqlite): use normalised tables for file names and versions (#10383)
This changes the files table to use normalisation for the names and
versions. The idea is that these are often common between all remote
devices, and repeating an integer is more efficient than repeating a
long string. A new benchmark bears this out; for a database with 100k
files shared between 31 devices, with some worst case assumption on
version vector size, the database is reduced in size by 50% and the test
finishes quicker:

    Current:
        db_bench_test.go:322: Total size: 6263.70 MiB
    --- PASS: TestBenchmarkSizeManyFilesRemotes (1084.89s)

    New:
        db_bench_test.go:326: Total size: 3049.95 MiB
    --- PASS: TestBenchmarkSizeManyFilesRemotes (776.97s)

The other benchmarks end up about the same within the margin of
variability, with one possible exception being that RemoteNeed seems to
be a little slower on average:

                                          old files/s   new files/s
    Update/n=RemoteNeed/size=1000-8            5.051k        4.654k
    Update/n=RemoteNeed/size=2000-8            5.201k        4.384k
    Update/n=RemoteNeed/size=4000-8            4.943k        4.242k
    Update/n=RemoteNeed/size=8000-8            5.099k        3.527k
    Update/n=RemoteNeed/size=16000-8           3.686k        3.847k
    Update/n=RemoteNeed/size=30000-8           4.456k        3.482k

I'm not sure why, possibly that query can be optimised anyhow.

836045ee87 feat: switch logging framework (#10220)
This updates our logging framework from legacy freetext strings using
the `log` package to structured log entries using `log/slog`. I have
updated all INFO or higher level entries, but not yet DEBUG (😓)... So,
at a high level:

There is a slight change in log levels, effectively adding a new warning
level:

- DEBUG is still debug (ideally not for users but developers, though
this is something we need to work on)
- INFO is still info, though I've added more data here, effectively
making Syncthing more verbose by default (more on this below)
- WARNING is a new log level that is different from the _old_ WARNING
(more below)
- ERROR is what was WARNING before -- problems that must be dealt with,
and also bubbled as a popup in the GUI.

A new feature is that the logging level can be set per package to
something other than just debug or info, and hence I feel that we can
add a bit more things into INFO while moving some (in fact, most)
current INFO level warnings into WARNING. For example, I think it's
justified to get a log of synced files in INFO and sync failures in
WARNING. These are things that have historically been tricky to debug
properly, and having more information by default will be useful to many,
while still making it possible get close to told level of inscrutability
by setting the log level to WARNING. I'd like to get to a stage where
DEBUG is never necessary to just figure out what's going on, as opposed
to trying to narrow down a likely bug.

Code wise:

- Our logging object, generally known as `l` in each package, is now a
new adapter object that provides the old API on top of the newer one.
(This should go away once all old log entries are migrated.) This is
only for `l.Debugln` and `l.Debugf`.
- There is a new level tracker that keeps the log level for each
package.
- There is a nested setup of handlers, since the structure mandated by
`log/slog` is slightly convoluted (imho). We do this because we need to
do formatting at a "medium" level internally so we can buffer log lines
in text format but with separate timestamp and log level for the API/GUI
to consume.
- The `debug` API call becomes a `loglevels` API call, which can set the
log level to `DEBUG`, `INFO`, `WARNING` or `ERROR` per package. The GUI
is updated to handle this.
- Our custom `sync` package provided some debugging of mutexes quite
strongly integrated into the old logging framework, only turned on when
`STTRACE` was set to certain values at startup, etc. It's been a long
time since this has been useful; I removed it.
- The `STTRACE` env var remains and can be used the same way as before,
while additionally permitting specific log levels to be specified,
`STTRACE=model:WARN,scanner:DEBUG`.
- There is a new command line option `--log-level=INFO` to set the
default log level.
- The command line options `--log-flags` and `--verbose` go away, but
are currently retained as hidden & ignored options since we set them by
default in some of our startup examples and Syncthing would otherwise
fail to start.

Sample format messages:

```
2009-02-13 23:31:30 INF A basic info line (attr1="val with spaces" attr2=2 attr3="val\"quote" a=a log.pkg=slogutil)
2009-02-13 23:31:30 INF An info line with grouped values (attr1=val1 foo.attr2=2 foo.bar.attr3=3 a=a log.pkg=slogutil)
2009-02-13 23:31:30 INF An info line with grouped values via logger (foo.attr1=val1 foo.attr2=2 a=a log.pkg=slogutil)
2009-02-13 23:31:30 INF An info line with nested grouped values via logger (bar.foo.attr1=val1 bar.foo.attr2=2 a=a log.pkg=slogutil)
2009-02-13 23:31:30 WRN A warning entry (a=a log.pkg=slogutil)
2009-02-13 23:31:30 ERR An error (a=a log.pkg=slogutil)

Jakob BorgandGitHub 77970d5113 refactor: use modern Protobuf encoder (#9817)
At a high level, this is what I've done and why:

- I'm moving the protobuf generation for the `protocol`, `discovery` and
`db` packages to the modern alternatives, and using `buf` to generate
because it's nice and simple.
- After trying various approaches on how to integrate the new types with
the existing code, I opted for splitting off our own data model types
from the on-the-wire generated types. This means we can have a
`FileInfo` type with nicer ergonomics and lots of methods, while the
protobuf generated type stays clean and close to the wire protocol. It
does mean copying between the two when required, which certainly adds a
small amount of inefficiency. If we want to walk this back in the future
and use the raw generated type throughout, that's possible, this however
makes the refactor smaller (!) as it doesn't change everything about the
type for everyone at the same time.
- I have simply removed in cold blood a significant number of old
database migrations. These depended on previous generations of generated
messages of various kinds and were annoying to support in the new
fashion. The oldest supported database version now is the one from
Syncthing 1.9.0 from Sep 7, 2020.
- I changed config structs to be regular manually defined structs.

For the sake of discussion, some things I tried that turned out not to
work...

### Embedding / wrapping

Embedding the protobuf generated structs in our existing types as a data
container and keeping our methods and stuff:

```
package protocol

type FileInfo struct {
  *generated.FileInfo
}
```

This generates a lot of problems because the internal shape of the
generated struct is quite different (different names, different types,
more pointers), because initializing it doesn't work like you'd expect
(i.e., you end up with an embedded nil pointer and a panic), and because
the types of child types don't get wrapped. That is, even if we also
have a similar wrapper around a `Vector`, that's not the type you get
when accessing `someFileInfo.Version`, you get the `*generated.Vector`
that doesn't have methods, etc.

### Aliasing

```
package protocol

type FileInfo = generated.FileInfo
```

Doesn't help because you can't attach methods to it, plus all the above.

### Generating the types into the target package like we do now and
attaching methods

This fails because of the different shape of the generated type (as in
the embedding case above) plus the generated struct already has a bunch
of methods that we can't necessarily override properly (like `String()`
and a bunch of getters).

### Methods to functions

I considered just moving all the methods we attach to functions in a
specific package, so that for example

```
package protocol

func (f FileInfo) Equal(other FileInfo) bool
```

would become

```
package fileinfos

func Equal(a, b *generated.FileInfo) bool
```

and this would mostly work, but becomes quite verbose and cumbersome,
and somewhat limits discoverability (you can't see what methods are
available on the type in auto completions, etc). In the end I did this
in some cases, like in the database layer where a lot of things like
`func (fv *FileVersion) IsEmpty() bool` becomes `func fvIsEmpty(fv
*generated.FileVersion)` because they were anyway just internal methods.

Jakob BorgandGitHub a3c724f2c3 all: Add build constants for runtime.GOOS comparisons (#8442)
all: Add package runtimeos for runtime.GOOS comparisons

I grew tired of hand written string comparisons. This adds generated
constants for the GOOS values, and predefined Is$OS constants that can
be iffed on. In a couple of places I rewrote trivial switch:es to if:s,
and added Illumos where we checked for Solaris (because they are
effectively the same, and if we're going to target one of them that
would be Illumos...).

Simon FreiandJakob Borg 932d8c69de lib/fs: Properly handle case insensitive systems (fixes #1787, fixes #2739, fixes #5708)
With this change we emulate a case sensitive filesystem on top of
insensitive filesystems. This means we correctly pick up case-only renames
and throw a case conflict error when there would be multiple files differing
only in case.

This safety check has a small performance hit (about 20% more filesystem
operations when scanning for changes). The new advanced folder option
`caseSensitiveFS` can be used to disable the safety checks, retaining the
previous behavior on systems known to be fully case sensitive.

* lib/model: Don't panic on failed chmod-back on directory (fixes #5836)

This makes the "in writable dir"-wrapper log chmod-back errors instead
of panicking. To do that we need a logger so the function moved into the
model package which is also the only place it's used. The tests came
along.

(The test also exercised osutil.RenameOrCopy like some sort of
piggybacking. I removed that.)
