+## Building, Releasing, Downstream-Packaging

-* Follow the steps in `docs/installation.rst -> Compiling from Source` and read the Makefile / shell scripts used in this process.
-* Make sure your distro is compatible with the paths in `docs/installation.rst`.
-* Ship a default config that adheres to your distro's `hier` and logging system.
-* Ship a service manager file and _please_ try to upstream it to this repository.
-  * `dist/systemd` contains a Systemd unit template.
-* Ship other material provided in `./dist`, e.g. in `/usr/share/zrepl/`.
-* Use `make release ZREPL_VERSION='mydistro-1.2.3_1'`
-    * Your distro's name and any versioning supplemental to zrepl's (e.g. package revision) should be in this string
-* Use `make platformtest` **on a test system** to validate that zrepl's abstractions on top of ZFS work with the system ZFS.
-* Make sure you are informed about new zrepl versions, e.g. by subscribing to GitHub's release RSS feed.
+This section provides an overview of the zrepl build & release process.
+Check out `docs/installation/compile-from-source.rst` for build-from-source instructions.

-## Developer Documentation
+### Overview

 zrepl is written in [Go](https://golang.org) and uses [Go modules](https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/Modules) to manage dependencies.
 The documentation is written in [ReStructured Text](http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html) using the [Sphinx](https://www.sphinx-doc.org) framework.

-To get started, run `./lazy.sh devsetup` to easily install build dependencies and read `docs/installation.rst -> Compiling from Source`.
+Install **build dependencies** using  `./lazy.sh devsetup`.
 `lazy.sh` uses `python3-pip` to fetch the build dependencies for the docs - you might want to use a [venv](https://docs.python.org/3/library/venv.html).
 If you just want to install the Go dependencies, run `./lazy.sh godep`.

-### Project Structure
+The **test suite** is split into pure **Go tests** (`make test-go`) and **platform tests** that interact with ZFS and thus generally **require root privileges** (`sudo make test-platform`).
+Platform tests run on their own pool with the name `zreplplatformtest`, which is created using the file vdev in `/tmp`.

-### Coding Workflow
+**Code generation** is triggered by `make generate`. Generated code is committed to the source tree.
+
+### Build & Release Process
+
+**The `Makefile` is catering to the needs of developers & CI, not distro packagers**.
+It provides phony targets for
+* local development (building, running tests, etc)
+* building a release in Docker (used by the CI & release management)
+* building .deb and .rpm packages out of the release artifacts.
+
+**Build tooling & dependencies** are documented as code in `lazy.sh`.
+Go dependencies are then fetched by the go command and pip dependencies are pinned through a `requirements.txt`.
+
+**We use CircleCI for continuous integration**.
+There are two workflows:
+
+* `ci` runs for every commit / branch / tag pushed to GitHub.
+  It is supposed to run very fast (<5min and provides quick feedback to developers).
+  It runs formatting checks, lints and tests on the most important OSes / architectures.
+  Artifacts are published to minio.cschwarz.com (see GitHub Commit Status).
+
+* `release` runs
+  * on manual triggers through the CircleCI API (in order to produce a release)
+  * periodically on `master`
+  Artifacts are published to minio.cschwarz.com (see GitHub Commit Status).
+
+**Releases** are issued via Git tags + GitHub Releases feature.
+The procedure to issue a release is as follows:
+* Issue the source release:
+  * Git tag the release on the `master` branch.
+  * Push the tag.
+  * Run `./docs/publish.sh` to re-build & push zrepl.github.io.
+* Issue the official binary release:
+  * Run the `release` pipeline (triggered via CircleCI API)
+  * Download the artifacts to the release manager's machine.
+  * Create a GitHub release, edit the changelog, upload all the release artifacts, including .rpm and .deb files.
+  * Issue the GitHub release.
+  * Add the .rpm and .deb files to the official zrepl repos, publish those.
+
+**Official binary releases are not re-built when Go receives an update. If the Go update is critical to zrepl (e.g. a Go security update that affects zrepl), we'd issue a new source release**.
+The rationale for this is that whereas distros provide a mechanism for this (`$zrepl_source_release-$distro_package_revision`), GitHub Releases doesn't which means we'd need to update the existing GitHub release's assets, which nobody would notice (no RSS feed updates, etc.).
+Downstream packagers can read the changelog to determine whether they want to push that minor release into their distro or simply skip it.
+
+### Additional Notes to Distro Package Maintainers
+
+* Run the platform tests (Docs -> Usage -> Platform Tests) **on a test system** to validate that zrepl's abstractions on top of ZFS work with the system ZFS.
+* Ship a default config that adheres to your distro's `hier` and logging system.
+* Ship a service manager file and _please_ try to upstream it to this repository.
+  * `dist/systemd` contains a Systemd unit template.
+* Ship other material provided in `./dist`, e.g. in `/usr/share/zrepl/`.
+* Have a look at the `Makefile`'s `ZREPL_VERSION` variable and how it passed to Go's `ldFlags`.
+  This is how `zrepl version` knows what version number to show.
+  Your build system should set the `ldFlags` flags appropriately and add a prefix or suffix that indicates that the given zrepl binary is a distro build, not an official one.
+* Make sure you are informed about new zrepl versions, e.g. by subscribing to GitHub's release RSS feed.

+// package trace provides activity tracing via ctx through Tasks and Spans
+//
+// # Basic Concepts
+//
+// Tracing can be used to identify where a piece of code spends its time.
+//
+// The Go standard library provides package runtime/trace which is useful to identify CPU bottlenecks or
+// to understand what happens inside the Go runtime.
+// However, it is not ideal for application level tracing, in particular if those traces should be understandable
+// to tech-savvy users (albeit not developers).
+//
+// This package provides the concept of Tasks and Spans to express what activity is happening within an application:
+// - Neither task nor span is really tangible but instead contained within the context.Context tree
+// - Tasks represent concurrent activity (i.e. goroutines).
+// - Spans represent a semantic stack trace within a task.
+// As a consequence, whenever a context is propagated across goroutine boundary, you need to create a child task:
+//
+//	go func(ctx context.Context) {
+//	  ctx, endTask = WithTask(ctx, "what-happens-inside-the-child-task")
+//	  defer endTask()
+//	  // ...
+//	}(ctx)
+//
+// Within the task, you can open up a hierarchy of spans.
+// In contrast to tasks, which have can multiple concurrently running child tasks,
+// spans must nest and not cross the goroutine boundary.
+//
+//	ctx, endSpan = WithSpan(ctx, "copy-dir")
+//	defer endSpan()
+//	for _, f := range dir.Files() {
+//	  func() {
+//	    ctx, endSpan := WithSpan(ctx, fmt.Sprintf("copy-file %q", f))
+//	    defer endspan()
+//	    b, _ := ioutil.ReadFile(f)
+//	    _ = ioutil.WriteFile(f + ".copy", b, 0600)
+//	  }()
+//	}
+//
+// In combination:
+//
+//	ctx, endTask = WithTask(ctx, "copy-dirs")
+//	defer endTask()
+//	for i := range dirs {
+//	  go func(dir string) {
+//	    ctx, endTask := WithTask(ctx, "copy-dir")
+//	    defer endTask()
+//	    for _, f := range filesIn(dir) {
+//	      func() {
+//	        ctx, endSpan := WithSpan(ctx, fmt.Sprintf("copy-file %q", f))
+//	        defer endspan()
+//	        b, _ := ioutil.ReadFile(f)
+//	        _ = ioutil.WriteFile(f + ".copy", b, 0600)
+//	      }()
+//	    }
+//	  }()
+//	}
+//
+// Note that a span ends at the time you call endSpan - not before and not after that.
+// If you violate the stack-like nesting of spans by forgetting an endSpan() invocation,
+// the out-of-order endSpan() will panic.
+//
+// A similar rule applies to the endTask closure returned by WithTask:
+// If a task has live child tasks at the time you call endTask(), the call will panic.
+//
+// Recovering from endSpan() or endTask() panics will corrupt the trace stack and lead to corrupt tracefile output.
+//
+// # Best Practices For Naming Tasks And Spans
+//
+// Tasks should always have string constants as names, and must not contain the `#` character. WHy?
+// First, the visualization by chrome://tracing draws a horizontal bar for each task in the trace.
+// Also, the package appends `#NUM` for each concurrently running instance of a task name.
+// Note that the `#NUM` suffix will be reused if a task has ended, in order to avoid an
+// infinite number of horizontal bars in the visualization.
+//
+// # Chrome-compatible Tracefile Support
+//
+// The activity trace generated by usage of WithTask and WithSpan can be rendered to a JSON output file
+// that can be loaded into chrome://tracing .
+// Apart from function GetSpanStackOrDefault, this is the main benefit of this package.
+//
+// First, there is a convenience environment variable 'ZREPL_ACTIVITY_TRACE' that can be set to an output path.
+// From process start onward, a trace is written to that path.
+//
+// More consumers can attach to the activity trace through the ChrometraceClientWebsocketHandler websocket handler.
+//
+// If a write error is encountered with any consumer (including the env-var based one), the consumer is closed and
+// will not receive further trace output.
