Go's CommitCompactVolume (store_vacuum.go L53-54) checks
s.isStopping before committing compaction to prevent file
swaps during shutdown. The Rust handler was missing this
check, which could allow compaction commits while the
server is stopping.
Go's CreateNeedleFromRequest sets HasName and HasMime flags even when
the filename or MIME type is empty (len < 256 is true for len 0).
Rust skipped empty values, causing the on-disk needle format to
differ: Go-written needles include extra bytes for the empty name/mime
size fields, changing the serialized needle size in the idx entry.
This ensures binary format compatibility between Go and Rust servers.
Go reads the first part's data unconditionally, then looks for a
part with a filename. If none found, Go uses the first part's data
(with empty filename). Rust only captured parts with filenames, so
when no part had a filename it fell back to the raw multipart body
bytes (including boundary delimiters), producing corrupt needle data.
Go sets Last-Modified, needle pairs, and S3 pass-through headers on
the response writer BEFORE calling tryHandleChunkedFile. Since the
Rust chunk manifest handler created fresh response headers and
returned early, these headers were missing from chunk manifest
responses. Now passes last_modified_str into the chunk manifest
handler and applies pairs and S3 pass-through query params
(response-cache-control, response-content-encoding, etc.) to the
chunk manifest response headers.
TrackedBody (used for download throttling) did not implement
size_hint(), causing HTTP/1.1 to fall back to chunked transfer
encoding instead of setting Content-Length. Go always sets
Content-Length explicitly for non-range responses.
Go's parseURLPath extracts the file extension from all URL formats
including 2-segment paths like /vid,fid.jpg. The Rust version only
handled 3-segment paths (/vid/fid/filename.ext), so extensions in
2-segment paths were lost. This caused image resize/crop operations
requested via query params to be silently skipped for those paths.
Go returns "file over the limited %d bytes" with the actual limit
value included. Rust returned a generic "file size limit exceeded"
without the limit value, making it harder to debug.
Go's writeJsonQuiet checks for callback (JSONP) and pretty query
parameters on all JSON responses including write success. The Rust
write success path used axum::Json directly, bypassing JSONP and
pretty-print support. Now uses json_result_with_query to match Go.
Go's UploadResult uses json:"name,omitempty" and json:"size,omitempty",
omitting these fields from JSON when they are zero values (empty
string / 0). The Rust struct always serialized them, producing
"name":"" and "size":0 where Go would omit them.
Go reads the full needle body for all entries including tombstones
(deleted needles with size=0) to extract the actual AppendAtNs
timestamp. The Rust version returned 0 early for size <= 0 entries,
which would cause the binary search in incremental copy to produce
incorrect results for positions containing deleted needles.
Now uses get_actual_size to compute the on-disk size (which handles
tombstones correctly) and only returns 0 when the actual size is 0.
Go checks contentSize <= SuperBlockSize to detect empty volumes (no
needles). Rust used < which would incorrectly allow a volume with
exactly SuperBlockSize bytes (header only, no data) to proceed to
the TTL expiry check and potentially be marked as expired.
Go's EcVolume.Destroy() removes .ecx, .ecj, and .vif files. The Rust
version only removed .ecx and .ecj, leaving orphaned .vif files on
disk after EC volume destruction (e.g., after TTL expiry).
Go's EcVolume.Sync() flushes both the .ecj journal and the .ecx index
to disk. The Rust version only flushed .ecj, leaving in-place deletion
marks in .ecx unpersisted until close(). This could cause data
inconsistency if the server crashes after marking a needle deleted in
.ecx but before close().
Go's r.FormValue() cannot read multipart text fields after
r.MultipartReader() consumes the body, so ts/ttl sent as multipart
form fields only work with the Rust volume server. Skip this test
when VOLUME_SERVER_IMPL != "rust" to fix CI failure.
Go checks extraSize > 256*256-2 and calls glog.Fatalf to prevent
corrupt super block headers. Rust was silently truncating via u16 cast,
which would write an incorrect extra_size field.
Go calls ev.ecxFile.Sync() before closing to ensure in-place deletion
marks are flushed to disk. Without this, deletion marks written via
MarkNeedleDeleted could be lost on crash.
Go sets ev.Version = needle.Version(volumeInfo.Version) from the .vif
file. Rust was always using Version::current() (V3), which would produce
wrong needle actual size calculations for volumes created with V1 or V2.
Go's r.ParseForm() returns HTTP 400 with "form parse error: ..." when
the query string is malformed. Rust was silently falling back to empty
query params via unwrap_or_default().
Go sets ETag at L235 AFTER the If-Modified-Since and If-None-Match
304 return paths, so Go's 304 responses do not include the ETag header.
The Rust code was incorrectly including ETag in both 304 response paths.
Go maps both "" and "hdd" to HardDriveType (empty string). The
Rust enum variant is HardDrive, not Hdd. The test referenced a
nonexistent Hdd variant causing compilation failure.
Go's Shutdown() calls vs.store.Close() which closes all volumes
and flushes file handles. The Rust server was relying on process
exit for cleanup, which could leave data unflushed.
Go unconditionally sets isHeartbeating: true in the VolumeServer
struct literal. Rust was starting with false when masters are
configured, causing /healthz to return 503 until the first
heartbeat succeeds.
Go's jwt.ParseWithClaims validates the nbf claim when present,
rejecting tokens whose nbf is in the future. The Rust jsonwebtoken
crate defaults validate_nbf to false, so tokens with future nbf
were incorrectly accepted.
Go's tryHandleChunkedFile only falls back from URL filename to
manifest name. Rust had an extra fallback to needle.name that
Go does not perform, which could produce different
Content-Disposition filenames for chunk manifests.
Go sets ETag on the response writer (via SetEtag) before the
If-Modified-Since and If-None-Match conditional checks, so both
304 response paths include the ETag header. The Rust implementation
was only adding ETag to 200 responses.
Go's json.ToJson produces records with unquoted keys like
{score:12} not {"score":12}. This is a custom format used
internally by SeaweedFS for query results.
Go's State.Update compares the incoming version with the stored
version and returns "version mismatch" error if they differ. This
provides optimistic concurrency control. The Rust implementation
was accepting any version unconditionally.
Go's ReadTTL calls fitTtlCount which normalizes to the coarsest unit
that fits: 7 days = 1 week, so "7d" becomes {Count:1, Unit:Week}
which displays as "1w". Both Go and Rust normalize identically.
Go's ScrubEcVolume switches on mode: INDEX calls v.ScrubIndex()
(ecx integrity only), LOCAL calls v.ScrubLocal(), FULL calls
vs.store.ScrubEcVolume(). Rust was ignoring the mode and always
running verify_ec_shards. Now INDEX mode checks ecx index integrity
(sorted overlap detection + file size validation) without shard I/O,
while LOCAL/FULL modes run the existing shard verification.
Go's ProcessRangeRequest returns nil (empty body, 200 OK) when
parsed ranges are empty or combined range size exceeds total content
size. The Rust buffered path incorrectly returned the full file data
for both cases. The streaming path already handled this correctly.
Go's doCheckAndFixVolumeData reads AppendAtNs from both live entries
(verifyNeedleIntegrity) and deleted tombstones (verifyDeletedNeedleIntegrity).
Rust was skipping deleted entries, which could result in a stale
last_append_at_ns if the last index entry is a deletion.
Go's hasFreeDiskLocation returns true immediately when MaxVolumeCount
is 0, treating it as unlimited. Rust was computing effective_free as
<= 0 for max==0, rejecting the location. This could fail volume
creation during early startup before the first heartbeat adjusts max.
Go checks reqNeedle.HasName() before setting ret.Name. Rust always set
the name from the filename variable, which could return the fid portion
of the path as the name for raw PUT requests without a filename.
Go checks both Accept-Encoding contains "gzip" AND IsGzippedContent
(data starts with 0x1f 0x8b) before setting Content-Encoding: gzip.
Rust only checked Accept-Encoding, which could incorrectly declare
gzip encoding for non-gzip compressed data.
Go uses max(preallocate, estimatedCompactSize) for the free space check.
Rust was only using the estimated volume size, which could start a
compaction that fails mid-way if preallocate exceeds the volume size.
Was counting EC volumes instead of EC shards, which underestimates EC
space usage. One EC volume with 14 shards uses ~1.4 volume slots, not 1.
Now uses Go's formula: ((max - volumes) * DataShardsCount - ecShardCount) / DataShardsCount.
Go reads the gRPC CA file only from config.GetString("grpc.ca"), i.e.
the [grpc] section. The [grpc.volume] section only provides cert and
key. Rust was also reading ca from [grpc.volume] which would silently
override the [grpc].ca value when both were present.
Go calls v.SetDefault("jwt.signing.expires_after_seconds", 10) and
v.SetDefault("jwt.signing.read.expires_after_seconds", 60). Rust
defaulted to 0 for both, which meant tokens would never expire when
security.toml has a signing key but omits expires_after_seconds.
