* fix: add MFS operation limit for --flush=false
adds a global counter that tracks consecutive MFS operations performed
with --flush=false and fails with clear error after limit is reached.
this prevents unbounded memory growth while avoiding the data corruption
risks of auto-flushing.
- adds Internal.MFSNoFlushLimit config
- operations fail with actionable error at limit
- counter resets on successful flush or any --flush=true operation
- operations with --flush=true reset and don't count
this commit removes automatic flush from https://github.com/ipfs/kubo/pull/10971
and instead errors to encourage users of --flush=false to develop a habit
of calling 'ipfs files flush' periodically.
boxo will no longer auto-flush (https://github.com/ipfs/boxo/pull/1041) to
avoid corruption issues, and kubo applies the limit to 'ipfs files' commands
instead.
closes#10842
* test: add tests for MFSNoFlushLimit
tests verify the new Internal.MFSNoFlushLimit config option:
- default limit of 256 operations
- custom limit configuration
- counter reset on flush=true
- counter reset on explicit flush command
- limit=0 disables the feature
- multiple MFS command types count towards limit
* docs: explain why MFS operations fail instead of auto-flushing
addresses feedback from https://github.com/ipfs/kubo/pull/10985#pullrequestreview-3256250970
- clarify that automatic flushing at limit was considered but rejected
- explain the data corruption risks of auto-flushing
- guide users who want auto-flush to use --flush=true (default)
- document benefits of explicit failure for batch operations
(cherry picked from commit a688b7eeac)
* Filestore: provide Filestore nodes
When strategy is set to "all" (the blockstore does all the providing when a
block is written), no providing was happening to Filestore blocks that were
not written to the underlying blockstore (so, the DAG leaves, as they live in
the filesystem directly). This fixes that.
* docs: clarify filestore and urlstore fix in changelog
both filestore (local file references) and urlstore (HTTP/HTTPS URL
references) blocks are now properly provided shortly after initial add
(cherry picked from commit f63887ae96)

* fix: SweepingProvider shouldn't error when missing DHT
* fix: prevent panic when SweepingProvider has no DHT
when SweepingProvider is enabled but no DHT is available (e.g., Routing.Type=none),
the daemon would panic with a nil pointer dereference in ResettableKeystore.ResetCids.
this fix:
- returns NoopProvider when no DHT implementation is available
- skips keystore initialization for NoopProvider to avoid unnecessary operations
- allows nodes to run without DHT when using HTTP-only routing or offline mode
the panic occurred because initKeyStore tried to access a nil keystore when
SweepingProvider returned nil for the keystore parameter. by checking if the
provider is NoopProvider and skipping keystore operations, we avoid the panic
while maintaining correct behavior for all other provider types.

* feat: allow custom http provide when offline
* refactor: improve offline HTTP provider handling and tests
- fixed comment/function name mismatch
- added mock server test for HTTP provide success
- clarified test names for offline scenarios
* test: simplify single-node provider tests
use h.NewNode().Init() instead of NewNodes(1) for cleaner test setup
* fix: allow SweepingProvider to work with HTTP-only routing
when no DHT is available but HTTP routers are configured for providing,
return NoopProvider instead of failing. this allows the daemon to start
and HTTP-based providing to work through the routing system.
moved HTTP provider detection to config package as HasHTTPProviderConfigured()
for better code organization and reusability.
this fix is important as SweepingProvider will become the new default in the future.

* docs: improve slow reprovide warning messages
simplify warning text and provide actionable solutions in order of preference
* feat(config): add validation for Provide.DHT settings
- validate interval doesn't exceed DHT record validity (48h)
- validate worker counts and other parameters are within valid ranges
- improve slow reprovide warning messages to reference config parameter
- add tests for all validation cases
* docs: add reprovide cycle visualization
shows traffic patterns of legacy vs sweep vs accelerated DHT
* ci: optimize build workflows
- use go version from go.mod instead of hardcoding
- group platforms by OS for parallel builds
- remove legacy try-build targets
* fix: checkout before setup-go in all workflows
setup-go needs go.mod to be present, so checkout must happen first
* chore: remove deprecated // +build syntax
go 1.17+ uses //go:build, the old syntax is no longer needed
* simplify: remove nofuse tag from CI workflows
- workflows now rely on platform build constraints
- keep make nofuse target for manual builds
- remove unused appveyor.yml
* ci: remove legacy travis variable and fix gateway-conformance
- remove TRAVIS env variable from 4 workflows
- fix gateway-conformance checkout path to match working-directory
- replace deprecated cache-go-action with built-in setup-go caching
* fix(webui): show helpful errors for incompatible configurations
- show error when Gateway.NoFetch=true and WebUI is not available locally
- show error when Gateway.DeserializedResponses=false (incompatible)
- add tests for both error scenarios
* chore(webui): update to v4.9.0
https://github.com/ipfs/ipfs-webui/releases/tag/v4.9.0
* docs: add WebUI v4.9.0 update to v0.38 changelog
- highlight new diagnostics screen for troubleshooting
- include screenshots of key features in table format
- add local access URL for WebUI
- update TOC with new sections
* fix: prevent --flush=false in 'ipfs files rm' command
the 'ipfs files rm' command always flushes for safety to ensure
data integrity. this change adds an explicit error when users
try to pass --flush=false, improving ux and preventing confusion.
related to #10842
* fix: add MFS cache size limit to prevent unbounded growth
- add Internal.MFSAutoflushThreshold config (experimental)
- directories auto-flush when cache exceeds threshold with --flush=false
- prevents high memory usage issue from #10842
- default: 256 entries per directory (matching HAMT shard size)
- set to 0 to restore old behavior (risky, may cause errors)
Closes#10842

updates to use CheckIfPinnedWithType method from https://github.com/ipfs/boxo/pull/1035,
enabling efficient pin name retrieval for 'ipfs pin ls <cid> --names'
- uses new CheckIfPinnedWithType from boxo for type-specific pin checks
- pin names are now returned when listing specific CIDs with --names flag
* test: add CLI tests for pin ls with names
tests cover:
- pin ls with specific CIDs returning names
- pin ls without CID listing all pins with names
- pin ls with --type and --names combinations
- JSON output with and without names

- improve migration ergonomics with common package utilities
- convert deprecated "flat" strategy to "all" during migration
- improve Provide docs
* docs: add total_provide_count metric guidance

* rpc: don't reuse object during decode
Retaining the object during the loop will make fields such as `Name`
stick between iterations.
This patch decodes into a new struct each iteration, assuring we don't
retain values from other pins.
* rpc: use the Detailed option during request
* fix: enforce identity CID size limits
- validate --inline-limit against verifcid.MaxDigestSize
- add error when --hash=identity exceeds size limit
- add tests for identity CID overflow scenarios
- update help text to show maximum inline limit
This prevents creation of unbounded identity CIDs by enforcing
the 128-byte limit defined in https://github.com/ipfs/boxo/pull/1018Fixes#6011
IPIP: https://github.com/ipfs/specs/pull/512
validates Import configuration fields to prevent invalid values:
- CidVersion: must be 0 or 1
- UnixFSFileMaxLinks: must be positive
- UnixFSDirectoryMaxLinks: must be non-negative
- UnixFSHAMTDirectoryMaxFanout: power of 2, multiple of 8, ≤ 1024
- BatchMaxNodes/BatchMaxSize: must be positive
- UnixFSChunker: validates format patterns
- HashFunction: must be allowed by verifcid
* telemetry: use systemd-detect-virt for container/vm detection
Current VM detection is not very accurate and systemd-detect-virt does exactly
what's needed under a miriad of virtualization platforms.
The downside is that we are running a system command which is uglier and might
perhaps flip anti-viruses or something.
* telemetry: improve vm/container detection with pure go
replace systemd-detect-virt with file-based detection to avoid:
- security risks from executing external binaries
- unnecessary repeated detection (now cached with sync.Once)
- missing detection on non-systemd systems
removes false positives:
- cpu hypervisor flag (indicates capability, not guest status)
- generic dmi strings that match physical hardware
- overlay filesystem check (used by immutable distros)
