From:
github.com/golang/protobuf v1.3.2
google.golang.org/grpc v1.17.0
To:
github.com/golang/protobuf v1.4.3
google.golang.org/grpc v1.35.0
google.golang.org/protobuf v1.25.0
About the two protobuf packages:
https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/docs/reference/go/faq
> Version v1.4.0 and higher of github.com/golang/protobuf wrap the new
implementation and permit programs to adopt the new API incrementally. For
example, the well-known types defined in github.com/golang/protobuf/ptypes are
simply aliases of those defined in the newer module. Thus,
google.golang.org/protobuf/types/known/emptypb and
github.com/golang/protobuf/ptypes/empty may be used interchangeably.
Notable Code Changes in zrepl:
- generate protobufs now contain a mutex so we can't copy them by value
anymore
- grpc.WithDialer is deprecated => use grpc.WithContextDialer instead
Go1.12 is now actually required by some of the dependencies.
package trace:
- introduce the concept of tasks and spans, tracked as linked list within ctx
- see package-level docs for an overview of the concepts
- **main feature 1**: unique stack of task and span IDs
- makes it easy to follow a series of log entries in concurrent code
- **main feature 2**: ability to produce a chrome://tracing-compatible trace file
- either via an env variable or a `zrepl pprof` subcommand
- this is not a CPU profile, we already have go pprof for that
- but it is very useful to visually inspect where the
replication / snapshotter / pruner spends its time
( fixes#307 )
usage in package daemon/logging:
- goal: every log entry should have a trace field with the ID stack from package trace
- make `logging.GetLogger(ctx, Subsys)` the authoritative `logger.Logger` factory function
- the context carries a linked list of injected fields which
`logging.GetLogger` adds to the logger it returns
- `logging.GetLogger` also uses package `trace` to get the
task-and-span-stack and injects it into the returned logger's fields
