Chris Lu e9bcb8f4ad docs(s3/lifecycle): refresh DESIGN.md as-built (#9491)
* docs(s3/lifecycle): refresh DESIGN.md as-built + add wiki pages

DESIGN.md was written as a phased implementation plan ("Phase 2 will
ship X, Phase 4 will ship Y"). All phases are now merged, plus the
post-cutover changes from #9477/#9481/#9484/#9485/#9486 substantially
changed the worker model (single subscription, walker throttle,
observability gauges). Rewrite the doc in present tense describing
what's actually there.

Net changes vs the prior plan-style doc:
- Algorithm pseudo-code reflects the single-subscription fan-out plus
  walkedThisPass within-pass guard.
- Walker invocation table replaces the implicit "two distinct calls"
  prose with three call sites (recovery / steady-state / empty-replay)
  and their throttle gates.
- New section on the subscription model (one Reader, ShardPredicate,
  fan-out by ev.ShardID).
- New section on cursor.LastWalkedNs and the WalkerInterval throttle.
- Observability section: gauges, heartbeat tokens, what each means.
- "Implementation history" table maps phases to merged PRs.
- "Future work" lists the four optimizations we deferred (long-lived
  subscription, bucket-coordinated walker, per-bucket lag metric,
  filer meta-log retention).

Drop the "Phase N — ..." narrative from the bottom; the PR history
table is the durable artifact now.

Add wiki pages under docs/wiki/s3-lifecycle/ as source-of-truth for
the operator-facing docs. README explains the sync workflow with the
external seaweedfs.wiki.git repo. Five pages:

- Home.md — landing page, supported rule shapes, what the worker does
- Operator-Guide.md — config knobs, when to change each, walker
  interval recommendations by cluster size
- Monitoring.md — Prometheus metric reference + heartbeat token table
  + suggested PromQL alerts
- Troubleshooting.md — stuck cursor, walker stuck, failure outcomes,
  cursor schema for manual inspection
- Architecture.md — high-level overview for newcomers; sits between
  Home.md (operator) and DESIGN.md (developer)

* docs(s3/lifecycle): address PR review feedback on docs

Coderabbit + gemini findings on #9491:

- Monitoring.md: clarify the "matches all dispatched" phrasing; note
  that LIFECYCLE_DELETE_OUTCOME_UNSPECIFIED is the proto zero-value
  (shouldn't appear in healthy systems); filter PromQL alerts to
  ignore zero-valued gauges so fresh-install heartbeats don't trip.
- Operator-Guide.md, Troubleshooting.md: clarify weed shell -master
  format as host:http_port.grpc_port (SeaweedFS ServerAddress).
- Troubleshooting.md: pause the s3_lifecycle job in the admin UI
  before manually editing a cursor file, otherwise the worker's
  save races with the operator's edit.
- Architecture.md, Home.md, Operator-Guide.md, Monitoring.md,
  Troubleshooting.md, DESIGN.md: add language tags (`text`) to
  fenced code blocks for markdownlint MD040 compliance.
- DESIGN.md: standardize on the S3 spec rule names
  (`ExpiredObjectDeleteMarker`, `NewerNoncurrentVersions`,
  `AbortIncompleteMultipartUpload`) and add a one-line note mapping
  them to the engine's `ActionKind*` constants.
- README.md: prepend `cd "$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel)"` to the
  sync workflow so the `cp` commands' repo-root-relative paths work
  whether the operator's shell is at the repo root or at
  docs/wiki/s3-lifecycle/.
- Home.md: was lagging the wiki-repo merged version (had the older
  pre-merge content). Re-sync from the wiki repo so source matches.

* docs(s3/lifecycle): remove wiki pages from PR

The wiki pages belong in seaweedfs.wiki.git, not the main repo. The
source-of-truth concern that motivated adding them here is real but
the cost — every code-review touchpoint requires reviewers to load
operator-facing pages too — outweighs it. The wiki pages are already
pushed locally (~/dev/seaweedfs.wiki); they'll publish on the
operator-side workflow.

This PR remains scoped to DESIGN.md (the developer-facing reference
that does belong with the code).

* docs(s3/lifecycle): drop Implementation history section

git log is the durable record of what shipped when; the prose table
duplicates it and goes stale faster than commit metadata.

* docs(s3/lifecycle): soften 'exactly once per run' in Goal

The prior phrasing overstated the guarantee versus the failure model
documented later in the same file. Reword to: 'process due objects
each pass; retryable/blocked outcomes get retried from the cursor on
later runs.' Surfaces the head-of-line-blocking semantics up front so
the rest of the doc reads consistently.

Also: drop the stale 'see docs/wiki/s3-lifecycle/' pointer — those
pages live in the wiki repo, not the main repo.

Chris Lu 122ca7c020 feat(s3/lifecycle): daily-replay worker behind algorithm flag (Phase 2) (#9446)
* docs(s3lifecycle): design for daily-replay worker

Captures the algorithm and dev plan iterated on in PR #9431 and the
discussion leading up to it: per-shard daily meta-log replay, walker
as a per-day pass for ExpirationDate/ExpiredDeleteMarker/NewerNoncurrent
plus a recovery branch over engine.RecoveryView(snap), explicit
retention-window input to RulesForShard, two cursor hashes
(ReplayContentHash + PromotedHash) that together detect every
invalidation case. Implementation phases are sequenced so each can
ship independently — Phase 1 (noncurrent_since stamp) just landed.

* feat(s3/lifecycle): daily-replay worker behind algorithm flag (Phase 2)

New weed/s3api/s3lifecycle/dailyrun package implementing the bounded
daily meta-log scan from the design doc. One pass per Execute per
shard: load cursor, scan events forward, route each through router.Route,
dispatch any due Match, advance the cursor on success. Halt-on-failure
keeps the cursor at the last fully-processed event so tomorrow resumes
from the same point — head-of-line blocking is the deliberate failure
signal.

Replay-only in this phase. Phase 4 wires the walker for ExpirationDate,
ExpiredDeleteMarker, NewerNoncurrent, and scan_only-promoted rules.
Until then a typed UnsupportedRuleError refuses runs on those buckets:
operators see the rejection in the activity log rather than silently
losing rules.

Behavior:
- Per-shard cursor {TsNs, RuleSetHash, PromotedHash} JSON-persisted
  under /etc/s3/lifecycle/daily-cursors/. PromotedHash always-empty in
  Phase 2; Phase 4 turns it on.
- Rule-change branch rewinds cursor to now - max_ttl when the
  replay-content hash mismatches. Cold start uses the same floor.
- Transport errors retry 3x with exponential backoff capped at 5s;
  server outcomes (RETRY_LATER / BLOCKED) halt the run without retry.
- Empty-replay sentinel: cursor TsNs=0 when no replay-eligible rules
  exist, only the hash gates a future addition.

Worker shape:
- New admin config field "algorithm" with enum streaming|daily_replay,
  default streaming. Existing deployments are unaffected.
- handler.Execute branches on the flag: streaming routes through the
  current scheduler.Scheduler, daily_replay routes through
  dailyrun.Run.
- dispatcher.NewFilerSiblingLister exported so both paths share the
  same .versions/ + null-bare lookup.

Engine integration:
- Local replayContentHash + maxEffectiveTTL helpers in dailyrun. Phase
  4's engine surface (ReplayContentHash, MaxEffectiveTTL) will replace
  them with one-line redirects; the local versions hash the same
  fields so the cursor stays valid across the swap.

Tests cover cursor persistence, unsupported-rule rejection,
hash stability under rule reordering, hash sensitivity to TTL edits,
max-TTL aggregation, dispatch retry budget, and request shape
including the identity-CAS witness.

Includes the design doc at weed/s3api/s3lifecycle/DESIGN.md so reviewers
and future phases share the same spec.

* feat(s3/lifecycle): default to daily_replay; streaming becomes the fallback knob

The streaming dispatcher hasn't shipped to users yet, so there's no
backward-compat surface to preserve. Flip the algorithm default from
streaming to daily_replay so the new path is the standard from day
one. Streaming stays as an explicit opt-in escape hatch during the
Phase 4 walker rollout; Phase 5 deletes both the flag and the
streaming code.

Buckets whose lifecycle rules require walker-bound dispatch
(ExpirationDate, ExpiredDeleteMarker, NewerNoncurrent, scan_only)
will fail the daily_replay run with the existing
UnsupportedRuleError until Phase 4 walker integration ships. Operators
hitting that case can set algorithm=streaming until the follow-up
lands.

Updates the test for the default value and renames the
unknown-value-fallback case to reflect the new default.

* fix(s3/lifecycle/dailyrun): drop per-rule done flag — it suppressed due matches

The done map was keyed by ActionKey = {Bucket, RuleHash, ActionKind}.
That's only safe when each event produces at most one match per
ActionKey with a single deterministic due-time formula —
ExpirationDays and AbortMPU fit that shape because due_time
= ev.TsNs + r.days is monotonic in event TsNs.

But NoncurrentDays paired with NewerNoncurrentVersions > 0 (allowed
in Phase 2 since it compiles to ActionKindNoncurrentDays) routes
through routePointerTransitionExpand, which emits matches for every
noncurrent sibling — each with its own SuccessorModTime taken from
the demoting event for that specific sibling. A single event can
therefore produce two matches for the same ActionKey on different
objects with wildly different DueTimes.

With the old code, a not-yet-due sibling encountered first would set
done[ActionKey] = true and then the next sibling — even though its
DueTime had already passed — would be skipped. Future events for the
same rule would also be suppressed for the rest of the run. Objects
that should have been deleted weren't.

Fix: drop the early-stop optimization. Process every match
independently. A future-DueTime match is now silently skipped without
affecting any later match. The performance hit is small (Phase 2 is a
single bounded daily pass, and the rate limiter is the real
throughput governor); the correctness gain is non-negotiable.

Also fixes the inverted comment in processMatches that described the
old check as "due_time is past now" when it actually checked
DueTime.After(now) (i.e., NOT yet due).

Adds four targeted tests:
- not-yet-due match first in slice does not suppress two later
  due matches for the same rule;
- reversed slice ordering produces identical dispatch;
- BLOCKED outcome halts the loop before later due matches are sent;
- empty match slice is a no-op.

Phase 4's walker-and-recovery integration can revisit a
per-(rule, object) memoization if profiling argues for it.

* fix(s3/lifecycle/dailyrun): address PR review — cursor advance, mode gate, ctx cancel, snapshot consistency

Addresses PR #9446 review feedback. Eight distinct fixes:

1. CURSOR ADVANCEMENT (gemini, critical). The old code advanced the
   persisted cursor to lastOK = TsNs of the last event processed,
   including events whose matches were skipped as not-yet-due. Those
   skipped matches would never be re-scanned, so objects under
   long-TTL rules would never expire.

   Track a "stuck" flag in drainShardEvents: the first event with a
   skipped (future-DueTime) match stops cursorAdvanceTo from rising,
   but the loop keeps processing later events to dispatch any that ARE
   due. The persisted cursor sits at the last fully-processed event so
   tomorrow's run re-scans from the skipped event onward and the
   future-due matches get re-evaluated when they age in.

   processMatches now returns (skippedAny, halted, err) so the drain
   loop can tell apart "event fully drained" from "event had pending
   future-due matches."

2. MODE GATE (gemini). checkSnapshotForUnsupported only checked the
   ActionKind. A replay-eligible kind with Mode != ModeEventDriven
   (e.g. ModeScanOnly via retention promotion) passed the check but
   then got silently ignored by router.Route, which gates dispatch
   on Mode == ModeEventDriven. Reject loudly with the typed error
   so admin sees the rejection in the activity log.

3. WORKERS CONFIG (gemini). The handler hardcoded 16 concurrent shard
   goroutines regardless of cfg.Workers. Add a Workers field to
   dailyrun.Config and gate the goroutine fan-out on a semaphore of
   that size; the handler now passes cfg.Workers through.

4. SINGLE SNAPSHOT PER RUN (coderabbit). Run() validated against one
   snapshot but runShard() pulled a fresh cfg.Engine.Snapshot() per
   shard. Mid-run Compile would let shards process different rule
   sets. Capture snap at the top of Run, pass it down to every shard.

5. FROZEN runNow (coderabbit). drainShardEvents and processMatches
   accepted a `now func() time.Time` and called it multiple times.
   DueTime comparisons would slip as the run wore on. Capture runNow
   once at the top of Run and thread it through as a time.Time value.

6. CTX CANCELLATION (coderabbit). The drain loop's <-ctx.Done() case
   broke out of the loop and returned nil, marking interrupted runs as
   successful. Return ctx.Err() instead so the caller propagates the
   interrupt; cursorAdvanceTo carries whatever progress was made.

7. CURSOR LOAD VALIDATION (coderabbit + gemini). The persister silently
   accepted empty files, mismatched shard_ids, and hash slices shorter
   than 32 bytes (copy() would zero-pad). Each now returns a typed
   error so the run halts and an operator investigates rather than
   silently re-scanning from time zero or persisting a zero-padded
   hash that masks corruption forever.

8. DEAD BRANCH (coderabbit). The "lastOK < startTsNs → keep persisted"
   guard in runShard was unreachable because drainShardEvents
   initialized lastOK := startTsNs and only ever raised it. Removed
   along with the new cursor-advancement semantics that handle the
   "no events processed" case implicitly.

Plus markdown lint: DESIGN.md fenced code blocks now carry a `text`
language identifier to satisfy MD040.

Skipped from the review:
- gemini's "maxTTL == 0 incorrectly skips immediate expirations":
  actions with Days <= 0 don't compile to a CompiledAction (see
  weed/s3api/s3lifecycle/action_kind.go: `if rule.X > 0`). The new
  empty-replay sentinel uses `rsh == [32]byte{}` for clarity per
  gemini's suggested form, but the behavior is equivalent.

Tests added/updated:
- TestProcessMatches_AllDueNoSkippedFlag pins skippedAny=false when
  all matches are past their DueTime.
- TestCheckSnapshotForUnsupported_NonEventDrivenModeRejected pins
  the new Mode check.
- TestFilerCursorPersister_EmptyFileReturnsError,
  _ShardIDMismatchReturnsError, _HashLengthMismatchReturnsError pin
  the new validation rules.
- Existing process-matches tests reshaped for the
  (skippedAny, halted, err) return tuple.

Full build clean. Dailyrun + worker test packages green.
