weed fix -ecx reconstructs the .dat from the local data shards, scans the
needles, and writes a fresh ascending-sorted .ecx containing only live
entries — the same on-disk index WriteSortedFileFromIdx emits at encode
time. When the .vif is also missing it is regenerated from the inferred
EC ratio (flags > .vif > shard-count inference / 10+4) and the .dat size
recovered from the scan.
When some data shards are missing but at least dataShards shards survive,
the missing shards are first reconstructed from the survivors via
Reed-Solomon, so a partial shard set is repaired too.
Also makes erasure_coding.WriteDatFile de-stripe using len(shardFileNames)
instead of the DataShardsCount constant, so the caller's actual data-shard
count is honored (behavior-preserving for the default 10, and fixing the
existing caller that already passes ECContext.DataShards).
This recovers an EC volume whose sealed index was lost from every node
while enough shards survive, a state neither ec.rebuild nor ec.decode can
repair because both require an existing .ecx.
Flags: -ecx, -ecDataShards, -ecParityShards. Run with the volume server
stopped.
* fix(ec.decode): purge EC shards when volume is empty
When an EC volume has no live entries (all deleted), ec.decode should not generate an empty normal volume. Instead, treat decode as a no-op and allow shard purge to proceed cleanly.\n\nFixes: #7748
* chore: address PR review comments
* test: cover live EC index + avoid magic string
* chore: harden empty-EC handling
- Make shard cleanup best-effort (collect errors)\n- Remove unreachable EOF handling in HasLiveNeedles\n- Add empty ecx test case\n- Share no-live-entries substring between server/client\n
* perf: parallelize EC shard unmount/delete across locations
* refactor: combine unmount+delete into single goroutine per location
* refactor: use errors.Join for multi-error aggregation
* refactor: use existing ErrorWaitGroup for parallel execution
* fix: capture loop variables + clarify SuperBlockSize safety
