Before this change the backoff for the error_background error was 6
seconds. This means that if it wasn't resolved in 60 seconds (with the
default 10 low level retries) then an error was reported.
This error was being reported frequently in the integration tests, so
is likely affecting real users too.
This patch changes the backoff into an exponential backoff
1,2,4,8...1024 seconds to make sure we wait long enough for the
background operation to complete.
See #5734
This changes the interface to NewObject so that if NewObject is called
on a directory then it should return fs.ErrorIsDir if possible without
doing any extra work, otherwise fs.ErrorObjectNotFound.
Tested on integration test server with:
go run integration-test.go -tests backend -run TestIntegration/FsMkdir/FsPutFiles/FsNewObjectDir -branch fix-stat -maxtries 1
This change checks the context whenever rclone might retry, and
doesn't retry if the current context has an error.
This fixes the pathological behaviour of `--max-duration` refusing to
exit because all the context deadline exceeded errors were being
retried.
This unfortunately meant changing the shouldRetry logic in every
backend and doing a lot of context propagation.
See: https://forum.rclone.org/t/add-flag-to-exit-immediately-when-max-duration-reached/22723
This is done by making fs.Config private and attaching it to the
context instead.
The Config should be obtained with fs.GetConfig and fs.AddConfig
should be used to get a new mutable config that can be changed.
