+Our goal is a robust & reliable, distributed, highly available(*),
 large file store based upon write-once registers, append-only files,
 Chain Replication, and client-server style architecture.  All members
 of the cluster store all of the files.  Distributed load
 balancing/sharding of files is __outside__ of the scope of this
 system.  However, it is a high priority that this system be able to
 integrate easily into systems that do provide distributed load
 balancing, e.g., Riak Core.  Although strong consistency is a major
 feature of Chain Replication, first use cases will focus mainly on
 eventual consistency features --- strong consistency design will be
 discussed in a separate design document (read more below).
-Outline
+The ability for Machi to maintain strong consistency will make it
 attractive as a toolkit for building things like CORFU and Tango as
 well as better-known open source software such as Kafka's file
 replication.  (See the bibliography of the [Machi high level design

 ## 3. Development status summary
 Mid-March 2016: The Machi development team has been downsized in
 recent months, and the pace of development has slowed.  Here is a
 summary of the status of Machi's major components.
 * Humming Consensus and the chain manager
  * No new safety bugs have been found by model-checking tests.
  * A new document,
    [Hands-on experiments with Machi and Humming Consensus](doc/humming-consensus-demo.md)
    is now available.  It is a tutorial for setting up a 3 virtual
    machine Machi cluster and how to demonstrate the chain manager's
    reactions to server stops & starts, crashes & restarts, and pauses
    (simulated by `SIGSTOP` and `SIGCONT`).
  * The chain manager can still make suboptimal-but-safe choices for
    chain transitions when a server hangs/pauses temporarily.
    * Recent chain manager changes have made the instability window
      much shorter when the slow/paused server resumes execution.
    * Scott believes that a modest change to the chain manager's
      calculation of a new projection can reduce flapping in this (and
      many other cases) less likely.  Currently, the new local
      projection is calculated using only local state (i.e., the chain
      manager's internal state + the fitness server's state).
      However, if the "latest" projection read from the public
      projection stores were also input to the new projection
      calculation function, then many obviously bad projections can be
      avoided without needing rounds of Humming Consensus to
      demonstrate that a bad projection is bad.
 * FLU/data server process
  * All known correctness bugs have been fixed.
  * Performance has not yet been measured.  Performance measurement
    and enhancements are scheduled to start in the middle of March 2016.
    (This will include a much-needed update to the `basho_bench` driver.)
 * Access protocols and client libraries
  * The protocol used by both external clients and internally (instead
    of using Erlang's native message passing mechanisms) is based on
    Protocol Buffers.
    * (Machi PB protocol specification: ./src/machi.proto)[./src/machi.proto]
    * At the moment, the PB specification contains two protocols.
      Sometime in the near future, the spec will be split to separate
      the external client API (the "high" protocol) from the internal
      communication API (the "low" protocol).
 * Recent conference talks about Machi
  * Erlang Factory San Francisco 2016
    [the slides and video recording](http://www.erlang-factory.com/sfbay2016/scott-lystig-fritchie)
    will be available a few weeks after the conference ends on March
    11, 2016.
  * Ricon 2015
    * [The slides](http://ricon.io/archive/2015/slides/Scott_Fritchie_Ricon_2015.pdf)
    * and the [video recording](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yR5kHL1bu1Q&index=13&list=PL9Jh2HsAWHxIc7Tt2M6xez_TOP21GBH6M)
    are now available.
    * If you would like to run the Humming Consensus code (with or without
    the network partition simulator) as described in the RICON 2015
    presentation, please see the

 * 1. "Name Games" with random-slicing style consistent hashing
 Our goal: to distribute lots of files very evenly across a cluster of
 Machi clusters (hereafter called a "cluster of clusters" or "CoC").
 * 2. Assumptions
 ** Basic familiarity with Machi high level design and Machi's "projection"
 The [[https://github.com/basho/machi/blob/master/doc/high-level-machi.pdf][Machi high level design document]] contains all of the basic
 background assumed by the rest of this document.
 ** Familiarity with the Machi cluster-of-clusters/CoC concept
 This isn't yet well-defined (April 2015).  However, it's clear from
 the [[https://github.com/basho/machi/blob/master/doc/high-level-machi.pdf][Machi high level design document]] that Machi alone does not support
 any kind of file partitioning/distribution/sharding across multiple
 small Machi clusters.  There must be another layer above a Machi cluster to
 provide such partitioning services.
 The name "cluster of clusters" orignated within Basho to avoid
 conflicting use of the word "cluster".  A Machi cluster is usually
 synonymous with a single Chain Replication chain and a single set of
 machines (e.g. 2-5 machines).  However, in the not-so-far future, we
 expect much more complicated patterns of Chain Replication to be used
 in real-world deployments.
 "Cluster of clusters" is clunky and long, but we haven't found a good
 substitute yet.  If you have a good suggestion, please contact us!
 ~^_^~
 Using the [[https://github.com/basho/machi/tree/master/prototype/demo-day-hack][cluster-of-clusters quick-and-dirty prototype]] as an
 architecture sketch, let's now assume that we have ~N~ independent Machi
 clusters.  We wish to provide partitioned/distributed file storage
 across all ~N~ clusters.  We call the entire collection of ~N~ Machi
 clusters a "cluster of clusters", or abbreviated "CoC".
 ** Continue CoC prototype's assumption: a Machi cluster is unaware of CoC
 Let's continue with an assumption that an individual Machi cluster
 inside of the cluster-of-clusters is completely unaware of the
 cluster-of-clusters layer.
 We may need to break this assumption sometime in the future?  It isn't
 quite clear yet, sorry.
 ** Analogy: "neighborhood : city :: Machi : cluster-of-clusters"
 Analogy: The word "machi" in Japanese means small town or
 neighborhood.  As the Tokyo Metropolitan Area is built from many
 machis and smaller cities, therefore a big, partitioned file store can
 be built out of many small Machi clusters.
 ** The reader is familiar with the random slicing technique
 I'd done something very-very-nearly-identical for the Hibari database
 6 years ago.  But the Hibari technique was based on stuff I did at
 Sendmail, Inc, so it felt old news to me.  {shrug}
 The Hibari documentation has a brief photo illustration of how random
 slicing works, see [[http://hibari.github.io/hibari-doc/hibari-sysadmin-guide.en.html#chain-migration][Hibari Sysadmin Guide, chain migration]]
 For a comprehensive description, please see these two papers:

 ** We use random slicing to map CoC file names -> Machi cluster ID/name
 We will use a single random slicing map.  This map (called ~Map~ in
 the descriptions below), together with the random slicing hash
 function (called ~rs_hash()~ below), will be used to map:
 #+BEGIN_QUOTE
    CoC client-visible file name -> Machi cluster ID/name/thingie
 #+END_QUOTE
 ** Machi cluster ID/name management: TBD, but, really, should be simple
 The mapping from:
 #+BEGIN_QUOTE
    Machi CoC member ID/name/thingie -> ???
 #+END_QUOTE
 ... remains To Be Determined.  But, really, this is going to be pretty
 simple.  The ID/name/thingie will probably be a human-friendly,
 printable ASCII string, and the "???" will probably be a single Machi
 cluster projection data structure.
 The Machi projection is enough information to contact any member of
 that cluster and, if necessary, request the most up-to-date projection
 information required to use that cluster.
 It's likely that the projection given by this map will be out-of-date,
 so the client must be ready to use the standard Machi procedure to
 request the cluster's current projection, in any case.

 I'm borrowing an illustration from the HibariDB documentation here,
 but it fits my purposes quite well.  (And I originally created that
 image, and the use license is OK.)
 #+CAPTION: Illustration of 'Map', using four Machi clusters
 [[./migration-4.png]]
 Assume that we have a random slicing map called ~Map~.  This particular
 ~Map~ maps the unit interval onto 4 Machi clusters:
 | Hash range  | Cluster ID |
 |-------------+------------|
 | 0.00 - 0.25 | Cluster1   |
 | 0.25 - 0.33 | Cluster4   |
 | 0.33 - 0.58 | Cluster2   |
 | 0.58 - 0.66 | Cluster4   |
 | 0.66 - 0.91 | Cluster3   |
 | 0.91 - 1.00 | Cluster4   |
 Then, if we had CoC file name "~foo~", the hash ~SHA("foo")~ maps to about
 0.05 on the unit interval.  So, according to ~Map~, the value of
 ~rs_hash("foo",Map) = Cluster1~.  Similarly, ~SHA("hello")~ is about
 0.67 on the unit interval, so ~rs_hash("hello",Map) = Cluster3~.
 * 4. An additional assumption: clients will want some control over file placement
 We will continue to use the 4-cluster diagram from the previous
 section.
 When a client wishes to append data to a Machi file, the Machi server
 chooses the file name & byte offset for storing that data.  This
 feature is why Machi's eventual consistency operating mode is so
 nifty: it allows us to merge together files safely at any time because
 any two client append operations will always write to different files
 & different offsets.
 ** Our new assumption: client control over initial file placement
 The CoC management scheme may decide that files need to migrate to
 other clusters.  The reason could be for storage load or I/O load
 balancing reasons.  It could be because a cluster is being
 decomissioned by its owners.  There are many legitimate reasons why a
 file that is initially created on cluster ID X has been moved to
 cluster ID Y.
 However, there are also legitimate reasons for why the client would want
 control over the choice of Machi cluster when the data is first
 written.  The single biggest reason is load balancing.  Assuming that
 the client (or the CoC management layer acting on behalf of the CoC
 client) knows the current utilization across the participating Machi
 clusters, then it may be very helpful to send new append() requests to
 under-utilized clusters.
 ** Cool!  Except for a couple of problems...
 If the client wants to store some data
 on Cluster2 and therefore sends an ~append("foo",CoolData)~ request to
 the head of Cluster2 (which the client magically knows how to
 contact), then the result will look something like
 ~{ok,"foo.s923.z47",ByteOffset}~.
 Therefore, the file name "~foo.s923.z47~" must be used by any Machi
 CoC client in order to retrieve the CoolData bytes.
 *** Problem #1: "foo.s923.z47" doesn't always map via random slicing to Cluster2
 ... if we ignore the problem of "CoC files may be redistributed in the
 future", then we still have a problem.
 In fact, the value of ~ps_hash("foo.s923.z47",Map)~ is Cluster1.
 *** Problem #2: We want CoC files to move around automatically
 If the CoC client stores two pieces of information, the file name
 "~foo.s923.z47~" and the Cluster ID Cluster2, then what happens when the
 cluster-of-clusters system decides to rebalance files across all
 machines?  The CoC manager may decide to move our file to Cluster66.
 How will a future CoC client wishes to retrieve CoolData when Cluster2
 no longer stores the required file?
 **** When migrating the file, we could put a "pointer" on Cluster2 that points to the new location, Cluster66.
 This scheme is a bit brittle, even if all of the pointers are always
 created 100% correctly.  Also, if Cluster2 is ever unavailable, then
 we cannot fetch our CoolData, even though the file moved away from
 Cluster2 several years ago.
 The scheme would also introduce extra round-trips to the servers
 whenever we try to read a file where we do not know the most
 up-to-date cluster ID for.
 **** We could store a pointer to file "foo.s923.z47"'s location in an LDAP database!
 Or we could store it in Riak.  Or in another, external database.  We'd
 rather not create such an external dependency, however.  Furthermore,
 we would also have the same problem of updating this external database
 each time that a file is moved/rebalanced across the CoC.
 * 5. Proposal: Break the opacity of Machi file names, slightly
 Assuming that Machi keeps the scheme of creating file names (in
 response to ~append()~ and ~sequencer_new_range()~ calls) based on a
 predictable client-supplied prefix and an opaque suffix, e.g.,
 ~append("foo",CoolData) -> {ok,"foo.s923.z47",ByteOffset}.~
 ... then we propose that all CoC and Machi parties be aware of this
 naming scheme, i.e. that Machi assigns file names based on:
 ~ClientSuppliedPrefix ++ "." ++ SomeOpaqueFileNameSuffix~
 The Machi system doesn't care about the file name -- a Machi server
 will treat the entire file name as an opaque thing.  But this document
 is called the "Name Game" for a reason!
 What if the CoC client could peek inside of the opaque file name
 suffix in order to remove (or add) the CoC location information that
 we need?
 ** The details: legend
 - ~T~   = the target CoC member/Cluster ID chosen at the time of ~append()~
 - ~p~   = file prefix, chosen by the CoC client (This is exactly the Machi client-chosen file prefix).
 - ~s.z~ = the Machi file server opaque file name suffix (Which we
  happen to know is a combination of sequencer ID plus file serial
  number.  This implementation may change, for example, to use a
  standard GUID string (rendered into ASCII hexadecimal digits) instead.)
 - ~K~   = the CoC placement key
 We use a variation of ~rs_hash()~, called ~rs_hash_with_float()~.  The
 former uses a string as its 1st argument; the latter uses a floating
 point number as its 1st argument.  Both return a cluster ID name
 thingie.
 #+BEGIN_SRC erlang
 %% type specs, Erlang style
 -spec rs_hash(string(), rs_hash:map()) -> rs_hash:cluster_id().
 -spec rs_hash_with_float(float(), rs_hash:map()) -> rs_hash:cluster_id().
 #+END_SRC
 NOTE: Use of floating point terms is not required.  For example,
 integer arithmetic could be used, if using a sufficiently large
 interval to create an even & smooth distribution of hashes across the
 expected maximum number of clusters.
 For example, if the maximum CoC cluster size would be 4,000 individual
 Machi clusters, then a minimum of 12 bits of integer space is required
 to assign one integer per Machi cluster.  However, for load balancing
 purposes, a finer grain of (for example) 100 integers per Machi
 cluster would permit file migration to move increments of
 approximately 1% of single Machi cluster's storage capacity.  A
 minimum of 19 bits of hash space would be necessary to accomodate
 these constraints.
 ** The details: CoC file write
 1. CoC client chooses ~p~ and ~T~ (i.e., the file prefix & target cluster)
 2. CoC client knows the CoC ~Map~
 3. CoC client calculates a value ~K~ such that ~rs_hash_with_float(K,Map) = T~, using the method described below.
 4. CoC client requests @ cluster ~T~: ~append_chunk(p,...) -> {ok,p.K.s.z,ByteOffset}~
 5. CoC stores/uses the file name ~p.K.s.z~.
 ** The details: CoC file read
 1. CoC client knows the file name ~p.K.s.z~ and parses it to find
   ~K~'s value.
 2. CoC client knows the CoC ~Map~
 3. Coc calculates ~rs_hash_with_float(K,Map) = T~
 4. CoC client requests @ cluster ~T~: ~read_chunk(p.K.s.z,...) ->~ ... success!
 ** The details: calculating 'K', the CoC placement key
 1. We know ~Map~, the current CoC mapping.
 2. We look inside of ~Map~, and we find all of the unit interval ranges
   that map to our desired target cluster ~T~.  Let's call this list
   ~MapList = [Range1=(start,end],Range2=(start,end],...]~.
 3. In our example, ~T=Cluster2~.  The example ~Map~ contains a single
   unit interval range for ~Cluster2~, ~[(0.33,0.58]]~.
 4. Choose a uniformally random number ~r~ on the unit interval.
 5. Calculate placement key ~K~ by mapping ~r~ onto the concatenation
   of the CoC hash space range intervals in ~MapList~.  For example,
   if ~r=0.5~, then ~K = 0.33 + 0.5*(0.58-0.33) = 0.455~, which is
   exactly in the middle of the ~(0.33,0.58]~ interval.
 6. If necessary, encode ~K~ in a file name-friendly manner, e.g., convert it to hexadecimal ASCII digits to create file name ~p.K.s.z~.
 ** The details: calculating 'K', an alternative method
 If the Law of Large Numbers and our random number generator do not create the kind of smooth & even distribution of files across the CoC as we wish, an alternative method of calculating ~K~ follows.
 If each server in each Machi cluster keeps track of the CoC ~Map~ and also of all values of ~K~ for all files that it stores, then we can simply ask a cluster member to recommend a value of ~K~ that is least represented by existing files.
 * 6. File migration (aka rebalancing/reparitioning/redistribution)
 ** What is "file migration"?
 As discussed in section 5, the client can have good reason for wanting
 to have some control of the initial location of the file within the
 cluster.  However, the cluster manager has an ongoing interest in
 balancing resources throughout the lifetime of the file.  Disks will
 get full, hardware will change, read workload will fluctuate,
 etc etc.
 This document uses the word "migration" to describe moving data from
 one CoC cluster to another.  In other systems, this process is
 described with words such as rebalancing, repartitioning, and
 resharding.  For Riak Core applications, the mechanisms are "handoff"
 and "ring resizing". See the [[http://hadoop.apache.org/docs/current/hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-hdfs/HdfsUserGuide.html#Balancer][Hadoop file balancer]] for another example.
 A simple variation of the Random Slicing hash algorithm can easily
 accomodate Machi's need to migrate files without interfering with
 availability.  Machi's migration task is much simpler due to the
 immutable nature of Machi file data.
 ** Change to Random Slicing
 The map used by the Random Slicing hash algorithm needs a few simple
 changes to make file migration straightforward.
 - Add a "generation number", a strictly increasing number (similar to
  a Machi cluster's "epoch number") that reflects the history of
  changes made to the Random Slicing map
 - Use a list of Random Slicing maps instead of a single map, one map
  per possibility that files may not have been migrated yet out of
  that map.
 As an example:
 #+CAPTION: Illustration of 'Map', using four Machi clusters
 [[./migration-3to4.png]]
 And the new Random Slicing map might look like this:
 | Generation number | 7          |
 |-------------------+------------|
 | SubMap            | 1          |
 |-------------------+------------|
 | Hash range        | Cluster ID |
 |-------------------+------------|
 | 0.00 - 0.33       | Cluster1   |
 | 0.33 - 0.66       | Cluster2   |
 | 0.66 - 1.00       | Cluster3   |
 |-------------------+------------|
 | SubMap            | 2          |
 |-------------------+------------|
 | Hash range        | Cluster ID |
 |-------------------+------------|
 | 0.00 - 0.25       | Cluster1   |
 | 0.25 - 0.33       | Cluster4   |
 | 0.33 - 0.58       | Cluster2   |
 | 0.58 - 0.66       | Cluster4   |
 | 0.66 - 0.91       | Cluster3   |
 | 0.91 - 1.00       | Cluster4   |
 When a new Random Slicing map contains a single submap, then its use
 is identical to the original Random Slicing algorithm.  If the map
 contains multiple submaps, then the access rules change a bit:
 - Write operations always go to the latest/largest submap.
 - Read operations attempt to read from all unique submaps.
  - Skip searching submaps that refer to the same cluster ID.
    - In this example, unit interval value 0.10 is mapped to Cluster1
      by both submaps.
  - Read from latest/largest submap to oldest/smallest submap.
  - If not found in any submap, search a second time (to handle races
    with file copying between submaps).
  - If the requested data is found, optionally copy it directly to the
    latest submap (as a variation of read repair which really simply
    accelerates the migration process and can reduce the number of
    operations required to query servers in multiple submaps).
 The cluster-of-clusters manager is responsible for:
 - Managing the various generations of the CoC Random Slicing maps,
  including distributing them to CoC clients.
 - Managing the processes that are responsible for copying "cold" data,
  i.e., files data that is not regularly accessed, to its new submap
  location.
 - When migration of a file to its new cluster is confirmed successful,
  delete it from the old cluster.
 In example map #7, the CoC manager will copy files with unit interval
 assignments in ~(0.25,0.33]~, ~(0.58,0.66]~, and ~(0.91,1.00]~ from their
 old locations in cluster IDs Cluster1/2/3 to their new cluster,
 Cluster4.  When the CoC manager is satisfied that all such files have
 been copied to Cluster4, then the CoC manager can create and
 distribute a new map, such as:
 | Generation number | 8          |
 |-------------------+------------|
 | SubMap            | 1          |
 |-------------------+------------|
 | Hash range        | Cluster ID |
 |-------------------+------------|
 | 0.00 - 0.25       | Cluster1   |
 | 0.25 - 0.33       | Cluster4   |
 | 0.33 - 0.58       | Cluster2   |
 | 0.58 - 0.66       | Cluster4   |
 | 0.66 - 0.91       | Cluster3   |
 | 0.91 - 1.00       | Cluster4   |
 One limitation of HibariDB that I haven't fixed is not being able to
 perform more than one migration at a time.  The trade-off is that such
 migration is difficult enough across two submaps; three or more
 submaps becomes even more complicated.
 Fortunately for Machi, its file data is immutable and therefore can
 easily manage many migrations in parallel, i.e., its submap list may
 be several maps long, each one for an in-progress file migration.

 * 1. "Name Games" with random-slicing style consistent hashing
 Our goal: to distribute lots of files very evenly across a large
 collection of individual, small Machi chains.
 * 2. Assumptions
 ** Basic familiarity with Machi high level design and Machi's "projection"
 The [[https://github.com/basho/machi/blob/master/doc/high-level-machi.pdf][Machi high level design document]] contains all of the basic
 background assumed by the rest of this document.
 ** Analogy: "neighborhood : city :: Machi chain : Machi cluster"
 Analogy: The word "machi" in Japanese means small town or
 neighborhood.  As the Tokyo Metropolitan Area is built from many
 machis and smaller cities, therefore a big, partitioned file store can
 be built out of many small Machi chains.
 ** Familiarity with the Machi chain concept
 It's clear (I hope!) from
 the [[https://github.com/basho/machi/blob/master/doc/high-level-machi.pdf][Machi high level design document]] that Machi alone does not support
 any kind of file partitioning/distribution/sharding across multiple
 small Machi chains.  There must be another layer above a Machi chain to
 provide such partitioning services.
 Using the [[https://github.com/basho/machi/tree/master/prototype/demo-day-hack][cluster quick-and-dirty prototype]] as an
 architecture sketch, let's now assume that we have ~n~ independent Machi
 chains.  We assume that each of these chains has the same
 chain length in the nominal case, e.g. chain length of 3.
 We wish to provide partitioned/distributed file storage
 across all ~n~ chains.  We call the entire collection of ~n~ Machi
 chains a "cluster".
 We may wish to have several types of Machi clusters.  For example:
 + Chain length of 1 for "don't care if it gets lost,
  store stuff very very cheaply" data.
 + Chain length of 2 for normal data.
  + Equivalent to quorum replication's reliability with 3 copies.
 + Chain length of 7 for critical, unreplaceable data.
  + Equivalent to quorum replication's reliability with 15 copies.
 Each of these types of chains will have a name ~N~ in the
 namespace.  The role of the cluster namespace will be demonstrated in
 Section 3 below.
 ** Continue an early assumption: a Machi chain is unaware of clustering
 Let's continue with an assumption that an individual Machi chain
 inside of a cluster is completely unaware of the cluster layer.
 ** The reader is familiar with the random slicing technique
 I'd done something very-very-nearly-like-this for the Hibari database
 6 years ago.  But the Hibari technique was based on stuff I did at
 Sendmail, Inc, in 2000, so this technique feels like old news to me.
 {shrug}
 The following section provides an illustrated example.
 Very quickly, the random slicing algorithm is:
 - Hash a string onto the unit interval [0.0, 1.0)
 - Calculate h(unit interval point, Map) -> bin, where ~Map~ divides
  the unit interval into bins (or partitions or shards).
 Machi's adaptation is in step 1: we do not hash any strings.  Instead, we
 simply choose a number on the unit interval.  This number is called
 the "cluster locator number".
 As described later in this doc, Machi file names are structured into
 several components.  One component of the file name contains the cluster
 locator number; we use the number as-is for step 2 above.

 We use a variation of the Random Slicing hash that we will call
 ~rs_hash_with_float()~.  The Erlang-style function type is shown
 below.

 -spec rs_hash_with_float(float(), rs_hash:map()) -> rs_hash:chain_id().
 #+END_SRC
 I'm borrowing an illustration from the HibariDB documentation here,
 but it fits my purposes quite well.  (I am the original creator of that
 image, and also the use license is compatible.)
 #+CAPTION: Illustration of 'Map', using four Machi chains
 [[./migration-4.png]]
 Assume that we have a random slicing map called ~Map~.  This particular
 ~Map~ maps the unit interval onto 4 Machi chains:
 | Hash range  | Chain ID |
 |-------------+----------|
 | 0.00 - 0.25 | Chain1   |
 | 0.25 - 0.33 | Chain4   |
 | 0.33 - 0.58 | Chain2   |
 | 0.58 - 0.66 | Chain4   |
 | 0.66 - 0.91 | Chain3   |
 | 0.91 - 1.00 | Chain4   |
 Assume that the system chooses a cluster locator of 0.05.
 According to ~Map~, the value of
 ~rs_hash_with_float(0.05,Map) = Chain1~.
 Similarly, ~rs_hash_with_float(0.26,Map) = Chain4~.
 This example should look very similar to Hibari's technique.
 The Hibari documentation has a brief photo illustration of how random
 slicing works, see [[http://hibari.github.io/hibari-doc/hibari-sysadmin-guide.en.html#chain-migration][Hibari Sysadmin Guide, chain migration]].
 * 4. Use of the cluster namespace: name separation plus chain type
 Let us assume that the cluster framework provides several different types
 of chains:
 | Chain length | Namespace    | Consistency Mode | Comment                          |
 |--------------+--------------+------------------+----------------------------------|
 |            3 | ~normal~     | eventual         | Normal storage redundancy & cost |
 |            2 | ~reduced~    | eventual         | Reduced cost storage             |
 |            1 | ~risky~      | eventual         | Really, really cheap storage     |
 |            7 | ~paranoid~   | eventual         | Safety-critical storage          |
 |            3 | ~sequential~ | strong           | Strong consistency               |
 |--------------+--------------+------------------+----------------------------------|
 The client may want to choose the amount of redundancy that its
 application requires: normal, reduced cost, or perhaps even a single
 copy.  The cluster namespace is used by the client to signal this
 intention.
 Further, the cluster administrators may wish to use the namespace to
 provide separate storage for different applications.  Jane's
 application may use the namespace "jane-normal" and Bob's app uses
 "bob-reduced".  Administrators may definine separate groups of
 chains on separate servers to serve these two applications.
 * 5. In its lifetime, a file may be moved to different chains
 The cluster management scheme may decide that files need to migrate to
 other chains -- i.e., file that is initially created on chain ID ~X~
 has been moved to chain ID ~Y~.
 + For storage load or I/O load balancing reasons.
 + Because a chain is being decommissioned by the sysadmin.
 * 6. Floating point is not required ... it is merely convenient for explanation
 NOTE: Use of floating point terms is not required.  For example,
 integer arithmetic could be used, if using a sufficiently large
 interval to create an even & smooth distribution of hashes across the
 expected maximum number of chains.
 For example, if the maximum cluster size would be 4,000 individual
 Machi chains, then a minimum of 12 bits of integer space is required
 to assign one integer per Machi chain.  However, for load balancing
 purposes, a finer grain of (for example) 100 integers per Machi
 chain would permit file migration to move increments of
 approximately 1% of single Machi chain's storage capacity.  A
 minimum of 12+7=19 bits of hash space would be necessary to accommodate
 these constraints.
 It is likely that Machi's final implementation will choose a 24 bit
 integer (or perhaps 32 bits) to represent the cluster locator.
 * 7. Proposal: Break the opacity of Machi file names, slightly.
 Machi assigns file names based on:
 ~ClientSuppliedPrefix ++ "^" ++ SomeOpaqueFileNameSuffix~
 What if some parts of the system could peek inside of the opaque file name
 suffix in order to look at the cluster location information that we might
 code in the filename suffix?
 We break the system into parts that speak two levels of protocols,
 "high" and "low".
 + The high level protocol is used outside of the Machi cluster
 + The low level protocol is used inside of the Machi cluster
 Both protocols are based on a Protocol Buffers specification and
 implementation.  Other protocols, such as HTTP, will be added later.

 ** The notation we use
 - ~N~   = the cluster namespace, chosen by the client.
 - ~p~   = file prefix, chosen by the client.
 - ~L~   = the cluster locator (a number, type is implementation-dependent)
 - ~Map~ = a mapping of cluster locators to chains
 - ~T~   = the target chain ID/name
 - ~u~   = a unique opaque file name suffix, e.g. a GUID string
 - ~F~   = a Machi file name, i.e., a concatenation of ~p^L^N^u~
 ** The details: cluster file append
 0. Cluster client chooses ~N~ and ~p~ (i.e., cluster namespace and
   file prefix) and sends the append request to a Machi cluster member
   via the Protocol Buffers "high" API.
 1. Cluster bridge chooses ~T~ (i.e., target chain), based on criteria
   such as disk utilization percentage.
 2. Cluster bridge knows the cluster ~Map~ for namespace ~N~.
 3. Cluster bridge choose some cluster locator value ~L~ such that
   ~rs_hash_with_float(L,Map) = T~ (see algorithm below).
 4. Cluster bridge sends its request to chain
   ~T~: ~append_chunk(p,L,N,...) -> {ok,p^L^N^u,ByteOffset}~
 5. Cluster bridge forwards the reply tuple to the client.
 6. Client stores/uses the file name ~F = p^L^N^u~.
 ** The details: Cluster file read
 0. Cluster client sends the read request to a Machi cluster member via
   the Protocol Buffers "high" API.
 1. Cluster bridge parses the file name ~F~  to find
   the values of ~L~ and ~N~ (recall, ~F = p^L^N^u~).
 2. Cluster bridge knows the Cluster ~Map~ for type ~N~.
 3. Cluster bridge calculates ~rs_hash_with_float(L,Map) = T~
 4. Cluster bridge sends request to chain ~T~:
   ~read_chunk(F,...) ->~ ... reply
 5. Cluster bridge forwards the reply to the client.
 ** The details: calculating 'L' (the cluster locator number) to match a desired target chain
 1. We know ~Map~, the current cluster mapping for a cluster namespace ~N~.
 2. We look inside of ~Map~, and we find all of the unit interval ranges
   that map to our desired target chain ~T~.  Let's call this list
   ~MapList = [Range1=(start,end],Range2=(start,end],...]~.
 3. In our example, ~T=Chain2~.  The example ~Map~ contains a single
   unit interval range for ~Chain2~, ~[(0.33,0.58]]~.
 4. Choose a uniformly random number ~r~ on the unit interval.
 5. Calculate the cluster locator ~L~ by mapping ~r~ onto the concatenation
   of the cluster hash space range intervals in ~MapList~.  For example,
   if ~r=0.5~, then ~L = 0.33 + 0.5*(0.58-0.33) = 0.455~, which is
   exactly in the middle of the ~(0.33,0.58]~ interval.
 ** A bit more about the cluster namespaces's meaning and use
 For use by Riak CS, for example, we'd likely start with the following
 namespaces ... working our way down the list as we add new features
 and/or re-implement existing CS features.
 - "standard" = Chain length = 3, eventually consistency mode
 - "reduced" = Chain length = 2, eventually consistency mode.
 - "stanchion7" = Chain length = 7, strong consistency mode.  Perhaps
  use this namespace for the metadata required to re-implement the
  operations that are performed by today's Stanchion application.
 We want the cluster framework to:
 - provide means of creating and managing
  chains of different types, e.g., chain length, consistency mode.
 - manage the mapping of cluster namespace
  names to the chains in the system.
 - provide query functions to map a cluster
  namespace name to a cluster map,
  e.g. ~get_cluster_latest_map("reduced") -> Map{generation=7,...}~.
 * 8. File migration (a.k.a. rebalancing/reparitioning/resharding/redistribution)
 ** What is "migration"?
 This section describes Machi's file migration.  Other storage systems
 call this process as "rebalancing", "repartitioning", "resharding" or
 "redistribution".
 For Riak Core applications, it is called "handoff" and "ring resizing"
 (depending on the context).
 See also the [[http://hadoop.apache.org/docs/current/hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-hdfs/HdfsUserGuide.html#Balancer][Hadoop file balancer]] for another example of a data
 migration process.
 As discussed in section 5, the client can have good reason for wanting
 to have some control of the initial location of the file within the
 chain.  However, the chain manager has an ongoing interest in
 balancing resources throughout the lifetime of the file.  Disks will
 get full, hardware will change, read workload will fluctuate,
 etc etc.
 This document uses the word "migration" to describe moving data from
 one Machi chain to another chain within a cluster system.
 A simple variation of the Random Slicing hash algorithm can easily
 accommodate Machi's need to migrate files without interfering with
 availability.  Machi's migration task is much simpler due to the
 immutable nature of Machi file data.
 ** Change to Random Slicing
 The map used by the Random Slicing hash algorithm needs a few simple
 changes to make file migration straightforward.
 - Add a "generation number", a strictly increasing number (similar to
  a Machi chain's "epoch number") that reflects the history of
  changes made to the Random Slicing map
 - Use a list of Random Slicing maps instead of a single map, one map
  per chance that files may not have been migrated yet out of
  that map.
 As an example:
 #+CAPTION: Illustration of 'Map', using four Machi chains
 [[./migration-3to4.png]]
 And the new Random Slicing map for some cluster namespace ~N~ might look
 like this:
 | Generation number / Namespace | 7 / reduced |
 |-------------------------------+-------------|
 | SubMap                        | 1           |
 |-------------------------------+-------------|
 | Hash range                    | Chain ID    |
 |-------------------------------+-------------|
 | 0.00 - 0.33                   | Chain1      |
 | 0.33 - 0.66                   | Chain2      |
 | 0.66 - 1.00                   | Chain3      |
 |-------------------------------+-------------|
 | SubMap                        | 2           |
 |-------------------------------+-------------|
 | Hash range                    | Chain ID    |
 |-------------------------------+-------------|
 | 0.00 - 0.25                   | Chain1      |
 | 0.25 - 0.33                   | Chain4      |
 | 0.33 - 0.58                   | Chain2      |
 | 0.58 - 0.66                   | Chain4      |
 | 0.66 - 0.91                   | Chain3      |
 | 0.91 - 1.00                   | Chain4      |
 When a new Random Slicing map contains a single submap, then its use
 is identical to the original Random Slicing algorithm.  If the map
 contains multiple submaps, then the access rules change a bit:
 - Write operations always go to the newest/largest submap.
 - Read operations attempt to read from all unique submaps.
  - Skip searching submaps that refer to the same chain ID.
    - In this example, unit interval value 0.10 is mapped to Chain1
      by both submaps.
  - Read from newest/largest submap to oldest/smallest submap.
  - If not found in any submap, search a second time (to handle races
    with file copying between submaps).
  - If the requested data is found, optionally copy it directly to the
    newest submap.   (This is a variation of read repair (RR). RR here
    accelerates the migration process and can reduce the number of
    operations required to query servers in multiple submaps).
 The cluster manager is responsible for:
 - Managing the various generations of the cluster Random Slicing maps for
  all namespaces.
 - Distributing namespace maps to cluster bridges.
 - Managing the processes that are responsible for copying "cold" data,
  i.e., files data that is not regularly accessed, to its new submap
  location.
 - When migration of a file to its new chain is confirmed successful,
  delete it from the old chain.
 In example map #7, the cluster manager will copy files with unit interval
 assignments in ~(0.25,0.33]~, ~(0.58,0.66]~, and ~(0.91,1.00]~ from their
 old locations in chain IDs Chain1/2/3 to their new chain,
 Chain4.  When the cluster manager is satisfied that all such files have
 been copied to Chain4, then the cluster manager can create and
 distribute a new map, such as:
 | Generation number / Namespace | 8 / reduced |
 |-------------------------------+-------------|
 | SubMap                        | 1           |
 |-------------------------------+-------------|
 | Hash range                    | Chain ID    |
 |-------------------------------+-------------|
 | 0.00 - 0.25                   | Chain1      |
 | 0.25 - 0.33                   | Chain4      |
 | 0.33 - 0.58                   | Chain2      |
 | 0.58 - 0.66                   | Chain4      |
 | 0.66 - 0.91                   | Chain3      |
 | 0.91 - 1.00                   | Chain4      |
 The HibariDB system performs data migrations in almost exactly this
 manner.  However, one important
 limitation of HibariDB is not being able to
 perform more than one migration at a time.  HibariDB's data is
 mutable.  Mutation causes many problems when migrating data
 across two submaps; three or more submaps was too complex to implement
 quickly and correctly.
 Fortunately for Machi, its file data is immutable and therefore can
 easily manage many migrations in parallel, i.e., its submap list may
 be several maps long, each one for an in-progress file migration.
 * 9. Other considerations for FLU/sequencer implementations
 ** Append to existing file when possible
 The sequencer should always assign new offsets to the latest/newest
 file for any prefix, as long as all prerequisites are also true,
 - The epoch has not changed.  (In AP mode, epoch change -> mandatory
  file name suffix change.)
 - The cluster locator number is stable.
 - The latest file for prefix ~p~ is smaller than maximum file size for
  a FLU's configuration.
 The stability of the cluster locator number is an implementation detail that
 must be managed by the cluster bridge.
 Reuse of the same file is not possible if the bridge always chooses a
 different cluster locator number ~L~ or if the client always uses a unique
 file prefix ~p~.  The latter is a sign of a misbehaved client; the
 former is a poorly-implemented bridge.

 ## Machi developer environment prerequisites
 1. Machi requires an 64-bit variant of UNIX: OS X, FreeBSD, Linux, or
   Solaris machine is a standard developer environment for C and C++
   applications (64-bit versions).
 2. You'll need the `git` source management utility.
 3. You'll need the 64-bit Erlang/OTP 17 runtime environment.  Please
   don't use earlier or later versions until we have a chance to fix
   the compilation warnings that versions R16B and 18 will trigger.
   Also, please verify that you are not using a 32-bit Erlang/OTP
   runtime package.
 For `git` and the Erlang runtime, please use your OS-specific
 package manager to install these.  If your package manager doesn't
 have 64-bit Erlang/OTP version 17 available, then we recommend using the
 [precompiled packages available at Erlang Solutions](https://www.erlang-solutions.com/resources/download.html).
 Also, please verify that you have enough file descriptors available to
 your user processes.  The output of `ulimit -n` should report at least
 4,000 file descriptors available.  If your limit is lower (a frequent
 problem for OS X users), please increase it to at least 4,000.
 # Using Vagrant to set up a developer environment for Machi
 The Machi source directory contains a `Vagrantfile` for creating an
 Ubuntu Linux-based virtual machine for compiling and running Machi.
 This file is in the
 [$SRC_TOP/priv/humming-consensus-demo.vagrant](../priv/humming-consensus-demo.vagrant)
 directory.
 If used as-is, the virtual machine specification is modest.
 * 1 virtual CPU
 * 512MB virtual memory
 * 768MB swap space
 * 79GB sparse virtual disk image.  After installing prerequisites and
  compiling Machi, the root file system uses approximately 2.7 GBytes.

 * FLU and Chain Life Cycle Management
 In an ideal world, we (the Machi development team) would have a full
 vision of how Machi would be managed, down to the last detail of
 beautiful CLI character and network protocol bit.  Our vision isn't
 complete yet, so we are working one small step at a time.

 * Terminology review
 ** Terminology: Machi run-time components/services/thingies
 + FLU: a basic Machi server, responsible for managing a collection of
  files.
 + Chain: a small collection of FLUs that maintain replicas of the same
  collection of files.  A chain is usually small, 1-3 servers, where
  more than 3 would be used only in cases when availability of
  certain data is critical despite failures of several machines.
  + The length of a chain is directly proportional to its
    replication factor, e.g., a chain length=3 will maintain
    (nominally) 3 replicas of each file.
  + To maintain file availability when ~F~ failures have occurred, a
    chain must be at least ~F+1~ members long.  (In comparison, the
    quorum replication technique requires ~2F+1~ members in the
    general case.)
 + Cluster: A collection of Machi chains that are used to store files
  in a horizontally partitioned/sharded/distributed manner.
 ** Terminology: Machi data structures
 + Projection: used to define a single chain: the chain's consistency
  mode (strong or eventual consistency), all members (from an
  administrative point of view), all active members (from a runtime,
  automatically-managed point of view), repairing/file-syncing members
  (also runtime, auto-managed), and so on
 + Epoch: A version number of a projection.  The epoch number is used
  by both clients & servers to manage transitions from one projection
  to another, e.g., when the chain is temporarily shortened by the
  failure of a member FLU server.
 ** Terminology: Machi cluster data structures
 + Namespace: A collection of human-friendly names that are mapped to
  groups of Machi chains that provide the same type of storage
  service: consistency mode, replication policy, etc.
  + A single namespace name, e.g. ~normal-ec~, is paired with a single
    cluster map (see below).
  + Example: ~normal-ec~ might be a collection of Machi chains in
    eventually-consistent mode that are of length=3.
  + Example: ~risky-ec~ might be a collection of Machi chains in
    eventually-consistent mode that are of length=1.
  + Example: ~mgmt-critical~ might be a collection of Machi chains in
    strongly-consistent mode that are of length=7.
 + Cluster map: Encodes the rules which partition/shard/distribute
  the files stored in a particular namespace across a group of chains
  that collectively store the namespace's files.
 + Chain weight: A value assigned to each chain within a cluster map
  structure that defines the relative storage capacity of a chain
  within the namespace.  For example, a chain weight=150 has 50% more
  capacity than a chain weight=100.
 + Cluster map epoch: The version number assigned to a cluster map.
 * Overview of administrative life cycles
 ** Cluster administrative life cycle
 + Cluster is first created
 + Adds namespaces (e.g. consistency policy + chain length policy) to
  the cluster
 + Chains are added to/removed from a namespace to increase/decrease the
  namespace's storage capacity.
 + Adjust chain weights within a namespace, e.g., to shift files
  within the namespace to chains with greater storage capacity
  resources and/or runtime I/O resources.
 A cluster "file migration" is the process of moving files from one
 namespace member chain to another for purposes of shifting &
 re-balancing storage capacity and/or runtime I/O capacity.
 ** Chain administrative life cycle
 + A chain is created with an initial FLU membership list.
 + Chain may be administratively modified zero or more times to
  add/remove member FLU servers.
 + A chain may be decommissioned.
 See also: http://basho.github.io/machi/edoc/machi_lifecycle_mgr.html
 ** FLU server administrative life cycle
 + A FLU is created after an administrator chooses the FLU's runtime
  location is selected by the administrator: which machine/virtual
  machine, IP address and TCP port allocation, etc.
 + An unassigned FLU may be added to a chain by chain administrative
  policy.
 + A FLU that is assigned to a chain may be removed from that chain by
  chain administrative policy.
  + In the current implementation, the FLU's Erlang processes will be
    halted.  Then the FLU's data and metadata files will be moved to
    another area of the disk for safekeeping.  Later, a "garbage
    collection" process can be used for reclaiming disk space used by
    halted FLU servers.

 * Quick admin: declarative management of Machi FLU and chain life cycles
 The "quick admin" scheme is a temporary (?) tool for managing Machi
 FLU server and chain life cycles in a declarative manner.  The API is
 described in this section.
 ** Quick admin uses the "rc.d" config scheme for life cycle management
 As described at the top of
 http://basho.github.io/machi/edoc/machi_lifecycle_mgr.html, the "rc.d"
 config files do not manage "policy".  "Policy" is doing the right
 thing with a Machi cluster from a systems administrator's
 point of view.  The "rc.d" config files can only implement decisions
 made according to policy.
 The "quick admin" tool is a first attempt at automating policy
 decisions in a safe way (we hope) that is also easy to implement (we
 hope) with a variety of systems management tools, e.g. Chef, Puppet,
 Ansible, Saltstack, or plain-old-human-at-a-keyboard.
 ** Quick admin's declarative "language": an Erlang-flavored AST
 The "language" that an administrator uses to express desired policy
 changes is not (yet) a true language.  As a quick implementation hack,
 the current language is an Erlang-flavored abstract syntax tree
 (AST).  The tree isn't very deep, either, frequently just one
 element tall.  (Not much of a tree, is it?)
 There are three terms in the language currently:
 + ~host~, define a new host that can execute FLU servers
 + ~flu~, define a new FLU
 + ~chain~, define a new chain or re-configure an existing chain with
  the same name
 *** Term 'host': define a new host for FLU services
 In this context, a host is a machine, virtual machine, or container
 that can execute the Machi application and can therefore provide FLU
 services, i.e. file service, Humming Consensus management.
 Two formats may be used to define a new host:
 #+BEGIN_SRC
 {host, Name, Props}.
 {host, Name, AdminI, ClientI, Props}.
 #+END_SRC
 The shorter tuple is shorthand notation for the latter.  If the
 shorthand form is used, then it will be converted automatically to the
 long form as:
 #+BEGIN_SRC
 {host, Name, AdminI=Name, ClientI=Name, Props}.
 #+END_SRC
 Type information, description, and restrictions:
 + ~Name::string()~ The ~Name~ attribute must be unique.  Note that it
  is possible to define two different hosts, one using a DNS hostname
  and one using an IP address.  The user must avoid this
  double-definition because it is not enforced by quick admin.
  + The ~Name~ field is used for cross-reference purposes with other
    terms, e.g., ~flu~ and ~chain~.
  + There is no syntax yet for removing a host definition.
 + ~AdminI::string()~ A DNS hostname or IP address for cluster
  administration purposes, e.g. SSH access.
  + This field is unused at the present time.
 + ~ClientI::string()~ A DNS hostname or IP address for Machi's client
  protocol access, e.g., Protocol Buffers network API service.
  + This field is unused at the present time.
 + ~props::proplist()~ is an Erlang-style property list for specifying
  additional configuration options, debugging information, sysadmin
  comments, etc.
 + A full-featured admin tool should also include managing several
  other aspects of configuration related to a "host".  For example,
  for any single IP address, quick admin assumes that there will be
  exactly one Erlang VM that is running the Machi application.  Of
  course, it is possible to have dozens of Erlang VMs on the same
  (let's assume for clarity) hardware machine and all running Machi
  ... but there are additional aspects of such a machine that quick
  admin does not account for
  + multiple IP addresses per machine
  + multiple Machi package installation paths
  + multiple Machi config files (e.g. cuttlefish config, ~etc.conf~,
    ~vm.args~)
  + multiple data directories/file system mount points
    + This is also a management problem for quick admin for a single
      Machi package on a machine to take advantage of bulk data
      storage using multiple multiple file system mount points.
  + multiple Erlang VM host names, required for distributed Erlang,
    which is used for communication with ~machi~ and ~machi-admin~
    command line utilities.
  + and others....
 *** Term 'flu': define a new FLU
 A new FLU is defined relative to a previously-defined ~host~ entities;
 an exception will be thrown if the ~host~ cannot be cross-referenced.
 #+BEGIN_SRC
 {flu, Name, HostName, Port, Props}
 #+END_SRC
 Type information, description, and restrictions:
 + ~Name::atom()~ The name of the FLU, as a human-friendly name and
  also for internal management use; please note the ~atom()~ type.
  This name must be unique.
  + The ~Name~ field is used for cross-reference purposes with the
    ~chain~ term.
  + There is no syntax yet for removing a FLU definition.
 + ~Hostname::string()~ The cross-reference name of the ~host~ that
  this FLU should run on.
 + ~Port::non_neg_integer()~ The TCP port used by this FLU server's
  Protocol Buffers network API listener service
 + ~props::proplist()~ is an Erlang-style property list for specifying
  additional configuration options, debugging information, sysadmin
  comments, etc.
 *** Term 'chain': define or reconfigure a chain
 A chain is defined relative to zero or more previously-defined ~flu~
 entities; an exception will be thrown if any ~flu~ cannot be
 cross-referenced.
 Two formats may be used to define/reconfigure a chain:
 #+BEGIN_SRC
 {chain, Name, FullList, Props}.
 {chain, Name, CMode, FullList, Witnesses, Props}.
 #+END_SRC
 The shorter tuple is shorthand notation for the latter.  If the
 shorthand form is used, then it will be converted automatically to the
 long form as:
 #+BEGIN_SRC
 {chain, Name, ap_mode, FullList, [], Props}.
 #+END_SRC
 Type information, description, and restrictions:
 + ~Name::atom()~ The name of the chain, as a human-friendly name and
  also for internal management use; please note the ~atom()~ type.
  This name must be unique.
  + There is no syntax yet for removing a chain definition.
 + ~CMode::'ap_mode'|'cp_mode'~ Defines the consistency mode of the
  chain, either eventual consistency or strong consistency,
  respectively.
  + A chain cannot change consistency mode, e.g., from
    strong~->~eventual consistency.
 + ~FullList::list(atom())~ Specifies the list of full-service FLU
  servers, i.e. servers that provide file data & metadata services as
  well as Humming Consensus.  Each atom in the list must
  cross-reference with a previously defined ~chain~; an exception will
  be thrown if any ~flu~ cannot be cross-referenced.
 + ~Witnesses::list(atom())~ Specifies the list of witness-only
  servers, i.e. servers that only participate in Humming Consensus.
  Each atom in the list must cross-reference with a previously defined
  ~chain~; an exception will be thrown if any ~flu~ cannot be
  cross-referenced.
  + This list must be empty for eventual consistency chains.
 + ~props::proplist()~ is an Erlang-style property list for specifying
  additional configuration options, debugging information, sysadmin
  comments, etc.
 + If this term specifies a new ~chain~ name, then all of the member
  FLU servers (full & witness types) will be bootstrapped to a
  starting configuration.
 + If this term specifies a previously-defined ~chain~ name, then all
  of the member FLU servers (full & witness types, respectively) will
  be adjusted to add or remove members, as appropriate.
  + Any FLU servers added to either list must not be assigned to any
    other chain, or they must be a member of this specific chain.
  + Any FLU servers removed from either list will be halted.
    (See the "FLU server administrative life cycle" section above.)
 ** Executing quick admin AST files via the 'machi-admin' utility
 Examples of quick admin AST files can be found in the
 ~priv/quick-admin/examples~ directory.  Below is an example that will
 define a new host ( ~"localhost"~ ), three new FLU servers ( ~f1~ & ~f2~
 and ~f3~ ), and an eventually consistent chain ( ~c1~ ) that uses the new
 FLU servers:
 #+BEGIN_SRC
 {host, "localhost", []}.
 {flu,f1,"localhost",20401,[]}.
 {flu,f2,"localhost",20402,[]}.
 {flu,f3,"localhost",20403,[]}.
 {chain,c1,[f1,f2,f3],[]}.
 #+END_SRC
 *** Checking the syntax of an AST file
 Given an AST config file, ~/path/to/ast/file~, its basic syntax and
 correctness can be checked without executing it.
 #+BEGIN_SRC
 ./rel/machi/bin/machi-admin quick-admin-check /path/to/ast/file
 #+END_SRC
 + The utility will exit with status zero and output ~ok~ if the syntax
  and proposed configuration appears to be correct.
 + If there is an error, the utility will exit with status one, and an
  error message will be printed.
 *** Executing an AST file
 Given an AST config file, ~/path/to/ast/file~, it can be executed
 using the command:
 #+BEGIN_SRC
 ./rel/machi/bin/machi-admin quick-admin-apply /path/to/ast/file RelativeHost
 #+END_SRC
 ... where the last argument, ~RelativeHost~, should be the exact
 spelling of one of the previously defined AST ~host~ entities,
 *and also* is the same host that the ~machi-admin~ utility is being
 executed on.
 Restrictions and warnings:
 + This is alpha quality software.
 + There is no "undo".
  + Of course there is, but you need to resort to doing things like
    using ~machi attach~ to attach to the server's CLI to then execute
    magic Erlang incantations to stop FLUs, unconfigure chains, etc.
    + Oh, and delete some files with magic paths, also.
 ** Using quick admin to manage multiple machines
 A quick sketch follows:
 1. Create the AST file to specify all of the changes that you wish to
   make to all hosts, FLUs, and/or chains, e.g., ~/tmp/ast.txt~.
 2. Check the basic syntax with the ~quick-admin-check~ argument to
   ~machi-admin~. 
 3. If the syntax is good, then copy ~/tmp/ast.txt~ to all hosts in the
   cluster, using the same path, ~/tmp/ast.txt~.
 4. For each machine in the cluster, run:
 #+BEGIN_SRC
 ./rel/machi/bin/machi-admin quick-admin-apply /tmp/ast.txt RelativeHost
 #+END_SRC
 ... where RelativeHost is the AST ~host~ name of the machine that you
 are executing the ~machi-admin~ command on.  The command should be
 successful, with exit status 0 and outputting the string ~ok~.
 Finally, for each machine in the cluster, a listing of all files in
 the directory ~rel/machi/etc/quick-admin-archive~ should show exactly
 the same files, one for each time that ~quick-admin-apply~ has been
 run successfully on that machine.
 * The "rc.d" style configuration file scheme
 This configuration scheme is inspired by BSD UNIX's ~init(8)~ process
 manager's configuration style, called "rc.d" after the name of the
 directory where these files are stored, ~/etc/rc.d~.  The ~init~
 process is responsible for (among other things) starting UNIX
 processes at machine boot time and stopping them when the machine is
 shut down.
 The original scheme used by ~init~ to start processes at boot time was
 a single Bourne shell script called ~/etc/rc~.  When a new software
 package was installed that required a daemon to be started at boot
 time, text was added to the ~/etc/rc~ file.  Uninstalling packages was
 much trickier, because it meant removing lines from a file that
 *is a computer program (run by the Bourne shell, a Turing-complete
 programming language)*.  Error-free editing of the ~/etc/rc~ script
 was impossible in all cases.
 Later, ~init~'s configuration was split into a few master Bourne shell
 scripts and a subdirectory, ~/etc/rc.d~.  The subdirectory contained
 shell scripts that were responsible for boot time starting of a single
 daemon or service, e.g. NFS or an HTTP server.  When a new software
 package was added, a new file was added to the ~rc.d~ subdirectory.
 When a package was removed, the corresponding file in ~rc.d~ was
 removed.  With this simple scheme, addition & removal of boot time
 scripts was vastly simplified.
 ** Riak had a similar configuration file editing problem (and its solution)
 Another software product from Basho Technologies, Riak, had a similar
 configuration file editing problem.  One file in particular,
 ~app.config~, had a syntax that made it difficult both for human
 systems administrators and also computer programs to edit the file in
 a syntactically correct manner.
 Later releases of Riak switched to an alternative configuration file
 format, one inspired by the BSD UNIX ~sysctl(8)~ utility and
 ~sysctl.conf(5)~ file syntax.  The ~sysctl.conf~ format is much easier
 to manage by computer programs to add items.  Removing items is not
 100% simple, however: the correct lines must be identified and then
 removed (e.g. with Perl or a text editor or combination of ~grep -v~
 and ~mv~), but removing any comment lines that "belong" to the removed
 config item(s) is not any easy for a 1-line shell script to do 100%
 correctly.
 Machi will use the ~sysctl.conf~ style configuration for some
 application configuration variables.  However, adding & removing FLUs
 and chains will be managed using the "rc.d" style because of the
 "rc.d" scheme's simplicity and tolerance of mistakes by administrators
 (human or computer).
 ** Machi's "rc.d" file scheme.
 Machi will use a single subdirectory that will contain configuration
 files for some life cycle management task, e.g. a single FLU or a
 single chain.
 The contents of the file should be a single Erlang term, serialized in
 ASCII form as Erlang source code statement, i.e. a single Erlang term
 ~T~ that is formatted by ~io:format("~w.",[T]).~.  This file must be
 parseable by the Erlang function ~file:consult()~.
 Later versions of Machi may change the file format to be more familiar
 to administrators who are unaccustomed to Erlang language syntax.
 ** FLU life cycle management using "rc.d" style files
 *** The key configuration components of a FLU
 1. The machine (or virtual machine) to run it on.
 2. The Machi software package's artifacts to execute.
 3. The disk device(s) used to store Machi file data & metadata, "rc.d"
   style config files, etc.
 4. The name, IP address and TCP port assigned to the FLU service.
 5. Its chain assignment.
 Notes:
 + Items 1-3 are currently outside of the scope of this life cycle
  document.  We assume that human administrators know how to do these
  things.
 + Item 4's properties are explicitly managed by a FLU-defining "rc.d"
  style config file.
 + Item 5 is managed by the chain life cycle management system.
 Here is an example of a properly formatted FLU config file:
 #+BEGIN_SRC
 {p_srvr,f1,machi_flu1_client,"192.168.72.23",20401,[]}.
 #+END_SRC
 ... which corresponds to the following Erlang record definition:
 #+BEGIN_SRC
 -record(p_srvr, {
          name            :: atom(),
          proto_mod = 'machi_flu1_client' :: atom(), % Module name
          address         :: term(), % Protocol-specific
          port            :: term(), % Protocol-specific
          props = []      :: list()  % proplist for other related info
         }).
 #+END_SRC
 + ~name~ is ~f1~.  This is name of the FLU.  This name should be
  unique over the lifetime of the administrative domain and thus
  managed by external policy.  This name must be the same as the name
  of the config file that defines the FLU.
 + ~proto_mod~ is used for internal management purposes and should be
  considered a mandatory constant.
 + ~address~ is "192.168.72.23".  The DNS hostname or IP address used
  by other servers to communicate with this FLU. This must be a valid
  IP address, previously assigned to this machine/VM using the
  appropriate operating system-specific procedure.
 + ~port~ is TCP port 20401.  The TCP port number that the FLU listens
  to for incoming Protocol Buffers-serialized communication.  This TCP
  port must not be in use (now or in the future) by another Machi FLU
  or any other process running on this machine/VM.
 + ~props~ is an Erlang-style property list for specifying additional
  configuration options, debugging information, sysadmin comments,
  etc.
 ** Chain life cycle management using "rc.d" style files
 Unlike FLUs, chains have a self-management aspect that makes a chain
 life cycle different from a single FLU server.  Machi's chains are
 self-managing, via Humming Consensus; see the
 https://github.com/basho/machi/tree/master/doc/ directory for much
 more detail about Humming Consensus.  After FLUs have received their
 initial chain configuration for Humming Consensus, the FLUs will
 manage the chain (and each other) by themselves.
 However, Humming Consensus does not handle three chain management
 problems:
 1. Specifying the very first chain configuration,
 2. Altering the membership of the chain (i.e. adding/removing FLUs
   from the chain),
 3. Stopping the chain permanently.
 A chain "rc.d" file will only be used to bootstrap a newly-defined FLU
 server.  It's like a piece of glue information to introduce the new
 FLU to the Humming Consensus group that is managing the chain's
 dynamic state (e.g. which members are up or down).  In all other
 respects, chain config files are ignored by life cycle management code.
 However, to mimic the life cycle of the FLU server's "rc.d" config
 files, a chain "rc.d" files is not deleted until the chain has been
 decommissioned (i.e. defined with length=0).
 *** The key configuration components of a chain
 1. The name of the chain.
 2. Consistency mode: eventually consistent or strongly consistent.
 3. The membership list of all FLU servers in the chain.
   + Remember, all servers in a single chain will manage full replicas
     of the same collection of Machi files.
 4. If the chain is defined to use strongly consistent mode, then a
   list of "witness servers" may also be defined.  See the
   [https://github.com/basho/machi/tree/master/doc/] documentation for
   more information on witness servers.
   + The witness list must be empty for all chains in eventual
     consistency mode. 
 Here is an example of a properly formatted chain config file:
 #+BEGIN_SRC
 {chain_def_v1,c1,ap_mode,
              [{p_srvr,f1,machi_flu1_client,"localhost",20401,[]},
               {p_srvr,f2,machi_flu1_client,"localhost",20402,[]},
               {p_srvr,f3,machi_flu1_client,"localhost",20403,[]}],
              [],[],[],
              [f1,f2,f3],
              [],[]}.
 #+END_SRC
 ... which corresponds to the following Erlang record definition:
 #+BEGIN_SRC
 -record(chain_def_v1, {
          name            :: atom(),         % chain name
          mode            :: 'ap_mode' | 'cp_mode',
          full = []       :: [p_srvr()],
          witnesses = []  :: [p_srvr()],
          old_full = []   :: [atom()], % guard against some races
          old_witnesses=[] :: [atom()], % guard against some races
          local_run = []  :: [atom()], % must be tailored to each machine!
          local_stop = [] :: [atom()], % must be tailored to each machine!
          props = []      :: list()   % proplist for other related info
         }).
 #+END_SRC
 + ~name~ is ~c1~, the name of the chain.  This name should be unique
  over the lifetime of the administrative domain and thus managed by
  external policy.  This name must be the same as the name of the
  config file that defines the chain.
 + ~mode~ is ~ap_mode~, an internal code symbol for eventual
  consistency mode.
 + ~full~ is a list of Erlang ~#p_srvr{}~ records for full-service
  members of the chain, i.e., providing Machi file data & metadata
  storage services.
 + ~witnesses~ is a list of Erlang ~#p_srvr{}~ records for witness-only
  FLU servers, i.e., providing only Humming Consensus service.
 + The next four fields are used for internal management only.
 + ~props~ is an Erlang-style property list for specifying additional
  configuration options, debugging information, sysadmin comments,
  etc.

 # Hands-on experiments with Machi and Humming Consensus
 ## Prerequisites
 Please refer to the
 [Machi development environment prerequisites doc](./dev-prerequisites.md)
 for Machi developer environment prerequisites.
 If you do not have an Erlang/OTP runtime system available, but you do
 have [the Vagrant virtual machine](https://www.vagrantup.com/) manager
 available, then please refer to the instructions in the prerequisites
 doc for using Vagrant.
 <a name="clone-compile">
 ## Clone and compile the code
 Please see the
 [Machi 'clone and compile' doc](./dev-clone-compile.md)
 for the short list of steps required to fetch the Machi source code
 from GitHub and to compile &amp; test Machi.
 ## Running three Machi instances on a single machine
 All of the commands that should be run at your login shell (e.g. Bash,
 c-shell) can be cut-and-pasted from this document directly to your
 login shell prompt.
 Run the following command:
    make stagedevrel
 This will create a directory structure like this:
          |-dev1-|... stand-alone Machi app + subdirectories
    |-dev-|-dev2-|... stand-alone Machi app + directories
          |-dev3-|... stand-alone Machi app + directories
 Each of the `dev/dev1`, `dev/dev2`, and `dev/dev3` are stand-alone
 application instances of Machi and can be run independently of each
 other on the same machine.  This demo will use all three.
 The lifecycle management utilities for Machi are a bit immature,
 currently.  They assume that each Machi server runs on a host with a
 unique hostname -- there is no flexibility built-in yet to easily run
 multiple Machi instances on the same machine.  To continue with the
 demo, we need to use `sudo` or `su` to obtain superuser privileges to
 edit the `/etc/hosts` file.
 Please add the following line to `/etc/hosts`, using this command:
    sudo sh -c 'echo "127.0.0.1 machi1 machi2 machi3" >> /etc/hosts'
 Next, we will use a shell script to finish setting up our cluster.  It
 will do the following for us:
 * Verify that the new line that was added to `/etc/hosts` is correct.
 * Modify the `etc/app.config` files to configure the Humming Consensus
  chain manager's actions logged to the `log/console.log` file.
 * Start the three application instances.
 * Verify that the three instances are running correctly.
 * Configure a single chain, with one FLU server per application
  instance.
 Please run this script using this command:
    ./priv/humming-consensus-demo.setup.sh
 If the output looks like this (and exits with status zero), then the
 script was successful.
    Step: Verify that the required entries in /etc/hosts are present
    Step: add a verbose logging option to app.config
    Step: start three three Machi application instances
    pong
    pong
    pong
    Step: configure one chain to start a Humming Consensus group with three members
    Result: ok
    Result: ok
    Result: ok
 We have now created a single replica chain, called `c1`, that has
 three file servers participating in the chain.  Thanks to the
 hostnames that we added to `/etc/hosts`, all are using the localhost
 network interface.
    | App instance | Pseudo   | FLU name | TCP port |
    | directory    | Hostname |          |   number |
    |--------------+----------+----------+----------|
    | dev1         | machi1   | flu1     |    20401 |
    | dev2         | machi2   | flu2     |    20402 |
    | dev3         | machi3   | flu3     |    20403 |
 The log files for each application instance can be found in the
 `./dev/devN/log/console.log` file, where the `N` is the instance
 number: 1, 2, or 3.
 ## Understanding the chain manager's log file output
 After running the `./priv/humming-consensus-demo.setup.sh` script,
 let's look at the last few lines of the `./dev/dev1/log/console.log`
 log file for Erlang VM process #1.
    2016-03-09 10:16:35.676 [info] <0.105.0>@machi_lifecycle_mgr:process_pending_flu:422 Started FLU f1 with supervisor pid <0.128.0>

 Let's pick apart some of these lines.  We have started all three
 servers at about the same time.  We see some race conditions happen,
 and some jostling and readjustment happens pretty quickly in the first
 few seconds.
 * `Started FLU f1 with supervisor pid <0.128.0>`
  * This VM, #1,
  started a FLU (Machi data server) with the name `f1`.  In the Erlang
  process supervisor hierarchy, the process ID of the top supervisor
  is `<0.128.0>`.
 * `Configured chain c1 via FLU f1 to mode=ap_mode all=[f1,f2,f3] witnesses=[]`
  * A bootstrap configuration for a chain named `c1` has been created.
  * The FLUs/data servers that are eligible for participation in the
    chain have names `f1`, `f2`, and `f3`.
  * The chain will operate in eventual consistency mode (`ap_mode`)
  * The witness server list is empty.  Witness servers are never used
    in eventual consistency mode.
 * `CONFIRM epoch 1141 <<155,42,7,221>> upi [] rep [] auth f1 by f1`
  * All participants in epoch 1141 are unanimous in adopting epoch
    1141's projection.  All active membership lists are empty, so
    there is no functional chain replication yet, at least as far as
    server `f1` knows
  * The epoch's abbreviated checksum is `<<155,42,7,221>>`.
  * The UPI list, i.e. the replicas whose data is 100% in sync is
    `[]`, the empty list.  (UPI = Update Propagation Invariant)
  * The list of servers that are under data repair (`rep`) is also
    empty, `[]`.
  * This projection was authored by server `f1`.
  * The log message was generated by server `f1`.
 * `CONFIRM epoch 1148 <<57,213,154,16>> upi [f1] rep [] auth f1 by f1`
  * Now the server `f1` has created a chain of length 1, `[f1]`.
  * Chain repair/file re-sync is not required when the UPI server list
    changes from length 0 -> 1.
 * `CONFIRM epoch 1151 <<239,29,39,70>> upi [f1] rep [f3] auth f1 by f1`
  * Server `f1` has noticed that server `f3` is alive.  Apparently it
    has not yet noticed that server `f2` is also running.
  * Server `f3` is in the repair list.
 * `CONFIRM epoch 1152 <<173,17,66,225>> upi [f2] rep [f1,f3] auth f2 by f1`
  * Server `f2` is apparently now aware that all three servers are running.
  * The previous configuration used by `f2` was `upi [f2]`, i.e., `f2`
    was running in a chain of one.  `f2` noticed that `f1` and `f3`
    were now available and has started adding them to the chain.
  * All new servers are always added to the tail of the chain in the
    repair list.
  * In eventual consistency mode, a UPI change like this is OK.
    * When performing a read, a client must read from both tail of the
      UPI list and also from all repairing servers.
    * When performing a write, the client writes to both the UPI
      server list and also the repairing list, in that order.
      * I.e., the client concatenates both lists,
      `UPI ++ Repairing`, for its chain configuration for the write.
  * Server `f2` will trigger file repair/re-sync shortly.
    * The waiting time for starting repair has been configured to be
      extremely short, 1 second.  The default waiting time is 10
      seconds, in case Humming Consensus remains unstable.
 * `CONFIRM epoch 1154 <<154,231,224,149>> upi [f2,f1,f3] rep [] auth f2 by f1`
  * File repair/re-sync has finished.  All file data on all servers
    are now in sync.
  * The UPI/in-sync part of the chain is now `[f2,f1,f3]`, and there
    are no servers under repair.
 ## Let's create some failures
 Here are some suggestions for creating failures.
 * Use the `./dev/devN/bin/machi stop` and `./dev/devN/bin/machi start`
  commands to stop & start VM #`N`.
 * Stop a VM abnormally by using `kill`.  The OS process name to look
  for is `beam.smp`.
 * Suspend and resume a VM, using the `SIGSTOP` and `SIGCONT` signals.
  * E.g. `kill -STOP 9823` and `kill -CONT 9823`
 The network partition simulator is not (yet) available when running
 Machi in this mode.  Please see the next section for instructions on
 how to use partition simulator.

 ## A complete example of all input and output
 If you don't have an Erlang/OTP 17 runtime environment available,
 please see this file for full input and output of a strong consistency
 length=3 chain test:
 https://gist.github.com/slfritchie/8352efc88cc18e62c72c
 This file contains all commands input and all simulator output from a
 sample run of the simulator.
 To help interpret the output of the test, please skip ahead to the
 "The test output is very verbose" section.
 ## Prerequisites
 If you don't have `git` and/or the Erlang 17 runtime system available
 on your OS X, FreeBSD, Linux, or Solaris machine, please take a look
 at the [Prerequisites section](#prerequisites) first.  When you have
 installed the prerequisite software, please return back here.
 ## Clone and compile the code
 Please briefly visit the [Clone and compile the code](#clone-compile)
 section.  When finished, please return back here.
 ## Run an interactive Erlang CLI shell
 Run the following command at your login shell:
    erl -pz .eunit ebin deps/*/ebin
 If you are using Erlang/OTP version 17, you should see some CLI output
 that looks like this:
    Erlang/OTP 17 [erts-6.4] [source] [64-bit] [smp:8:8] [async-threads:10] [hipe] [kernel-poll:false] [dtrace]
    Eshell V6.4  (abort with ^G)
    1>
 ## The test output is very verbose ... what are the important parts?
 The output of the Erlang command
 `machi_chain_manager1_converge_demo:help()` will display the following
 guide to the output of the tests.
    A visualization of the convergence behavior of the chain self-management
    algorithm for Machi.
      1. Set up some server and chain manager pairs.
      2. Create a number of different network partition scenarios, where
         (simulated) partitions may be symmetric or asymmetric.  Then stop changing
         the partitions and keep the simulated network stable (and perhaps broken).
      3. Run a number of iterations of the algorithm in parallel by poking each
         of the manager processes on a random'ish basis.
      4. Afterward, fetch the chain transition changes made by each FLU and
         verify that no transition was unsafe.
    During the iteration periods, the following is a cheatsheet for the output.
    See the internal source for interpreting the rest of the output.
        'SET partitions = '
            A pair-wise list of actors which cannot send messages.  The
            list is uni-directional.  If there are three servers (a,b,c),
            and if the partitions list is '[{a,b},{b,c}]' then all
            messages from a->b and b->c will be dropped, but any other
            sender->recipient messages will be delivered successfully.
        'x uses:'
            The FLU x has made an internal state transition and is using
            this epoch's projection as operating chain configuration.  The
            rest of the line is a summary of the projection.
        'CONFIRM epoch {N}'
            This message confirms that all of the servers listed in the
            UPI and repairing lists of the projection at epoch {N} have
            agreed to use this projection because they all have written
            this projection to their respective private projection stores.
            The chain is now usable by/available to all clients.
        'Sweet, private projections are stable'
            This report announces that this iteration of the test cycle
            has passed successfully.  The report that follows briefly
            summarizes the latest private projection used by each
            participating server.  For example, when in strong consistency
            mode with 'a' as a witness and 'b' and 'c' as real servers:
            %% Legend:
            %% server name, epoch ID, UPI list, repairing list, down list, ...
            %%                         ... witness list, 'false' (a constant value)
            [{a,{{1116,<<23,143,246,55>>},[a,b],[],[c],[a],false}},
             {b,{{1116,<<23,143,246,55>>},[a,b],[],[c],[a],false}}]
            Both servers 'a' and 'b' agree on epoch 1116 with epoch ID
            {1116,<<23,143,246,55>>} where UPI=[a,b], repairing=[],
            down=[c], and witnesses=[a].
            Server 'c' is not shown because 'c' has wedged itself OOS (out
            of service) by configuring a chain length of zero.
            If no servers are listed in the report (i.e. only '[]' is
            displayed), then all servers have wedged themselves OOS, and
            the chain is unavailable.
        'DoIt,' 
            This marks a group of tick events which trigger the manager
            processes to evaluate their environment and perhaps make a
            state transition.
    A long chain of 'DoIt,DoIt,DoIt,' means that the chain state has
    (probably) settled to a stable configuration, which is the goal of the
    algorithm.
    Press control-c to interrupt the test....".
 ## Run a test in eventual consistency mode
 Run the following command at the Erlang CLI prompt:
    machi_chain_manager1_converge_demo:t(3, [{private_write_verbose,true}]).
 The first argument, `3`, is the number of servers to participate in
 the chain.  Please note:
 * Chain lengths as short as 1 or 2 are valid, but the results are a
  bit boring.
 * Chain lengths as long as 7 or 9 can be used, but they may
  suffer from longer periods of churn/instability before all chain
  managers reach agreement via humming consensus.  (It is future work
  to shorten the worst of the unstable churn latencies.)
 * In eventual consistency mode, chain lengths may be even numbers,
  e.g. 2, 4, or 6.
 * The simulator will choose partition events from the permutations of
  all 1, 2, and 3 node partition pairs.  The total runtime will
  increase *dramatically* with chain length.
    * Chain length 2: about 3 partition cases
    * Chain length 3: about 35 partition cases
    * Chain length 4: about 230 partition cases
    * Chain length 5: about 1100 partition cases
 ## Run a test in strong consistency mode (with witnesses):
 *NOTE:* Due to a bug in the test code, please do not try to run the
 convergence test in strong consistency mode and also without the
 correct minority number of witness servers!  If in doubt, please run
 the commands shown below exactly.
 Run the following command at the Erlang CLI prompt:
    machi_chain_manager1_converge_demo:t(3, [{private_write_verbose,true}, {consistency_mode, cp_mode}, {witnesses, [a]}]).
 The first argument, `3`, is the number of servers to participate in
 the chain.  Chain lengths as long as 7 or 9 can be used, but they may
 suffer from longer periods of churn/instability before all chain
 managers reach agreement via humming consensus.
 Due to the bug mentioned above, please use the following
 commands when running with chain lengths of 5 or 7, respectively.
    machi_chain_manager1_converge_demo:t(5, [{private_write_verbose,true}, {consistency_mode, cp_mode}, {witnesses, [a,b]}]).
    machi_chain_manager1_converge_demo:t(7, [{private_write_verbose,true}, {consistency_mode, cp_mode}, {witnesses, [a,b,c]}]).

 == About This EDoc Documentation ==
 This EDoc-style documentation will concern itself only with Erlang
 function APIs and function &amp; data types.  Higher-level design and
 commentary will remain outside of the Erlang EDoc system; please see
 the "Pointers to Other Machi Documentation" section below for more
 details.
 Readers should beware that this documentation may be out-of-sync with
 the source code.  When in doubt, use the `make edoc' command to

 It is the developer's responsibility to re-generate the documentation
 periodically and commit it to the Git repo.
 == Machi Code Overview ==
 === Chain Manager ===
 The Chain Manager is responsible for managing the state of Machi's
 "Chain Replication" state.  This role is roughly analogous to the
 "Riak Core" application inside of Riak, which takes care of
 coordinating replica placement and replica repair.
 For each primitive data server in the cluster, a Machi FLU, there is a
 Chain Manager process that manages its FLU's role within the Machi
 cluster's Chain Replication scheme.  Each Chain Manager process
 executes locally and independently to manage the distributed state of
 a single Machi Chain Replication chain.
  <ul>
  <li> To contrast with Riak Core ... Riak Core's claimant process is
       solely responsible for managing certain critical aspects of
       Riak Core distributed state.  Machi's Chain Manager process
       performs similar tasks as Riak Core's claimant.  However, Machi
       has several active Chain Manager processes, one per FLU server,
       instead of a single active process like Core's claimant.  Each
       Chain Manager process acts independently; each is constrained
       so that it will reach consensus via independent computation
       &amp; action.
       Full discussion of this distributed consensus is outside the
       scope of this document; see the "Pointers to Other Machi
       Documentation" section below for more information.
  </li>
  <li> Machi differs from a Riak Core application because Machi's
       replica placement policy is simply, "All Machi servers store
       replicas of all Machi files".
       Machi is intended to be a primitive building block for creating larger
       cluster-of-clusters where files are
       distributed/fragmented/sharded across a large pool of
       independent Machi clusters.
  </li>
  <li> See
       [https://www.usenix.org/legacy/events/osdi04/tech/renesse.html]
       for a copy of the paper, "Chain Replication for Supporting High
       Throughput and Availability" by Robbert van Renesse and Fred
       B. Schneider.
  </li>
  </ul>
 === FLU ===
 The FLU is the basic storage server for Machi.
  <ul>
  <li> The name FLU is taken from "flash storage unit" from the paper
       "CORFU: A Shared Log Design for Flash Clusters" by
       Balakrishnan, Malkhi, Prabhakaran, and Wobber.  See
       [https://www.usenix.org/conference/nsdi12/technical-sessions/presentation/balakrishnan]
  </li>
  <li> In CORFU, the sequencer step is a prerequisite step that is
       performed by a separate component, the Sequencer.
       In Machi, the `append_chunk()' protocol message has
       an implicit "sequencer" operation applied by the "head" of the
       Machi Chain Replication chain.  If a client wishes to write
       data that has already been assigned a sequencer position, then
       the `write_chunk()' API function is used.
  </li>
  </ul>
 For each FLU, there are three independent tasks that are implemented
 using three different Erlang processes:
  <ul>
  <li> A FLU server, implemented primarily by `machi_flu.erl'.
  </li>
  <li> A projection store server, implemented primarily by
      `machi_projection_store.erl'. 
  </li>
  <li> A chain state manager server, implemented primarily by
       `machi_chain_manager1.erl'.
  </li>
  </ul>
 From the perspective of failure detection, it is very convenient that
 all three FLU-related services (file server, sequencer server, and
 projection server) are accessed using the same single TCP port.
 === Projection (data structure) ===
 The projection is a data structure that specifies the current state
 of the Machi cluster: all FLUs, which FLUS are considered
 up/running or down/crashed/stopped, which FLUs are actively
 participants in the Chain Replication protocol, and which FLUs are
 under "repair" (i.e., having their data resyncronized when
 newly-added to a cluster or when restarting after a crash).
 === Projection Store (server) ===
 The projection store is a storage service that is implemented by an
 Erlang/OTP `gen_server' process that is associated with each
 FLU.  Conceptually, the projection store is an array of
 write-once registers.  For each projection store register, the
 key is a 2-tuple of an epoch number (`non_neg_integer()' type)
 and a projection type (`public' or `private' type); the value is
 a projection data structure (`projection_v1()' type).
 === Client and Proxy Client ===
 Machi is intentionally avoiding using distributed Erlang for Machi's
 communication.  This design decision makes Erlang-side code more
 difficult &amp; complex but allows us the freedom of implementing
 parts of Machi in other languages without major
 protocol&amp;API&amp;glue code changes later in the product's
 lifetime.
 There are two layers of interface for Machi clients.
  <ul>
  <li> The `machi_flu1_client' module implements an API that uses a
       TCP socket directly.
  </li>
  <li> The `machi_proxy_flu1_client' module implements an API that
       uses a local, long-lived `gen_server' process as a proxy for
       the remote, perhaps disconnected-or-crashed Machi FLU server.
  </li>
  </ul>
 The types for both modules ought to be the same.  However, due to
 rapid code churn, some differences might exist.  Any major difference
 is (almost by definition) a bug: please open a GitHub issue to request
 a correction.
 == TODO notes ==
 Any use of the string "TODO" in upper/lower/mixed case, anywhere in
 the code, is a reminder signal of unfinished work.

 %% @doc This is a proxy process which mediates access to Machi FLU
 %% controlled files.  In particular, it manages the "write-once register"
 %% conceit at the heart of Machi's design.
 %%
 %% Read, write and append requests for a single file will be managed
 %% through this proxy.  Clients can also request syncs for specific
 %% types of filehandles.
 %%
 %% As operations are requested, the proxy keeps track of how many
 %% operations it has performed (and how many errors were generated.)
 %% After a sufficient number of inactivity, the server terminates
 %% itself.
 %%
 %% TODO:
 %% 1. Some way to transition the proxy into a wedged state that
 %% doesn't rely on message delivery.
 %%
 %% 2. Check max file size on appends. Writes we take on faith we can
 %% and should handle.
 %%
 %% 3. Async checksum reads on startup.

 %% In terms of use and API layering, the table rows are in highest`->'lowest
 %% order: each level calls the layer immediately below it.
 %%
 %% <dl>
 %% <dt> <b> PB Level</b> </dt>
 %% <dd> The Protocol Buffers API is divided logically into two levels,
 %% "low" and "high".  The low-level protocol is used for intra-chain
 %% communication.  The high-level protocol is used for clients outside
 %% of a Machi chain or Machi cluster of chains.
 %% </dd>
 %% <dt> <b> CR?</b> </dt>
 %% <dd> Does this API support (directly or indirectly) Chain
 %% Replication?  If `no', then the API has no awareness of multiple
 %% replicas of any file or file chunk; unaware clients can only
 %% perform operations at a single Machi FLU's file service or
 %% projection store service.
 %% </dd>
 %% <dt> <b> # FLUs</b> </dt>
 %% <dd> Now many FLUs does this API layer communicate with
 %% simultaneously?  Note that there is a one-to-one correspondence
 %% between this value and the "CR?" column's value.
 %% </dd>
 %% <dt> <b> Impl</b> </dt>
 %% <dd> Implementation: library-only or an Erlang process,
 %%      e.g., `gen_server'.
 %% </dd>
 %% <dt> <b> Conn Life?</b> </dt>
 %% <dd> Expected TCP session connection life: short or long.  At the
 %% lowest level, the {@link machi_flu1_client} API implementation takes
 %% no effort to reconnect to a remote FLU when its single TCP session
 %% is broken.  For long-lived connection life APIs, the server side will
 %% automatically attempt to reconnect to remote FLUs when a TCP session
 %% is broken.
 %% </dd>
 %% <dt> <b> Epoch &amp; NS version aware?</b> </dt>
 %% <dd> Are clients of this API responsible for knowing a chain's EpochID
 %% and namespace version numbers?  If `no', then the server side of the
 %% API will automatically attempt to discover/re-discover the EpochID and
 %% namespace version numbers whenever they change.
 %% </dd>
 %% </dl>
 %%
 %% The only protocol that we expect to be used by entities outside of
 %% a single Machi chain or a multi-chain cluster is the "high"
 %% Protocol Buffers API.  The {@link riak_pb_high_api_client} module
 %% is an Erlang reference implementation of this PB API.

 %% @doc This process is responsible for managing filenames assigned to
 %% prefixes. It's started out of `machi_flu_psup'.
 %%
 %% Supported operations include finding the "current" filename assigned to
 %% a prefix. Incrementing the sequence number and returning a new file name
 %% and listing all data files assigned to a given prefix.
 %%
 %% All prefixes should have the form of `{prefix, P}'. Single filename
 %% return values have the form of `{file, F}'.
 %%
 %% <h2>Finding the current file associated with a sequence</h2>
 %% First it looks up the sequence number from the prefix name. If
 %% no sequence file is found, it uses 0 as the sequence number and searches
 %% for a matching file with the prefix and 0 as the sequence number.
 %% If no file is found, the it generates a new filename by incorporating
 %% the given prefix, a randomly generated (v4) UUID and 0 as the
 %% sequence number.
 %%
 %% If the sequence number is > 0, then the process scans the filesystem
 %% looking for a filename which matches the prefix and given sequence number and
 %% returns that.

 %% @doc Creates a Merkle tree per file based on the checksum data for
 %% a given data file.
 %%
 %% The `naive' implementation representation is:
 %%
 %% `<<Length:64, Offset:32, 0>>' for unwritten bytes
 %% `<<Length:64, Offset:32, 1>>' for trimmed bytes
 %% `<<Length:64, Offset:32, Csum/binary>>' for written bytes
 %%
 %% The tree feeds these leaf nodes into hashes representing chunks of a minimum
 %% size of at least 1024 KB (1 MB), but if the file size is larger, we will try
 %% to get about 100 chunks for the first rollup "Level 1." We aim for around 10
 %% hashes at level 2, and then 2 hashes level 3 and finally the root.

 %% EQC single-threaded and concurrent test for file operations and repair
 %% under simulated network partition.
 %% The main purpose is to confirm no dataloss, i.e. every chunk that
 %% has been successfully written (ACK received) by append/write
 %% opration will be read after partition heals.
 %%
 %% All updating -- append, write and trim -- operations are executed
 %% through CR client, not directly by flu1 client, in order to be
 %% end-to-end test (in single chain point of veiw.) There may be churn
 %% for projections by simulated network partition.
 %%
 %% Test steps
 %% 1. Setup single chain.
 %% 2. Execute updating operations and simulated partition (by eqc_statem).
 %%    Every updating results are recorded in ETS tables.
 %% 3. When {error, timeout|partition} happens, trigger management tick for
 %%    every chain manager process.
 %% 4. After commands are executed, remove patition and wait for the chain
 %%    without down nodes nor repairing nodes.
 %% 5. Asserting written results so that each record be read from the
 %%    chain and data be the same with written one.
 %% Improvements to-do's
 %% - Use higher concurrency, e.g. 10+
 %% - Random length for binary to write
 %% - Operations other than append, write, trim
 %% - Use checksum instead of binary to save memory
 %% - More variety for partitioning pattern: non-constant failure
 %% - Stop and restart
 %% - Suspend and resume of some erlang processes

    <<"Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this
    continent a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the
    proposition that all men are created equal.
    Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any
    nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great
    battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a
    final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation
    might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.
    But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate, we can not consecrate, we can not 
    hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have
    consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will
    little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what 
    they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the 
    unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It
    is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us— 
    that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which 
    they gave the last full measure of devotion— that we here highly resolve that 
    these dead shall not have died in vain— that this nation, under God, shall have 
    a new birth of freedom— and that government of the people, by the people, for 
    the people, shall not perish from the earth.">>.
