I got into a situation where the model would endlessly request the directory
contents from the server because we did not notice yet that the server
is actually in maintenance mode while we were expanding the tree view when
changing the tab to the account or when just expanding it by clicking.
Before it was in Folder, however, the command line client does not
have the Folder class. To not duplicate code, the function to generate
the sync journal name went to SyncEngine class.
This would happen if the directory would first need to be created
through an mkdir propagation job. This job's itemCompleted signal
would trigger the directory to show as SYNC even though its children
are still propagating.
Fix the issue by tracking the sync count for each file, affecting
its parents. This allows us to get rid of the O(n) vector lookup
for each status query, and properly track the hierachical sync
status of a directory.
This also removes the itemCompleted signal emission from the
PropagateDirectory job. Since we only needed for overlay icons, and
since this job doesn't do any direct propagation, we can remove it
to ensure that we won't call itemCompleted twice for the item attached
to Propagate*Mkdir jobs (since the PropagateDirectory is backed by
the same SyncFileItem, instruction and status).
The current way of tracking the need to update the metadata without
propagation using a separate flag makes it difficult to track
priorities between the local and remote tree. The logic is also
difficult to logically cover since the possibilities matrix isn't
100% covered, leaving the flag only used in a few situations
(mostly involving folders, but not only).
The reason we need to change this is to be able to track the sync
state of files for overlay icons. The instruction alone can't be
used since CSYNC_INSTRUCTION_SYNC is used for folders even though
they won't be propagated. Removing this logic is however not possible
without using something else than CSYNC_INSTRUCTION_NONE since too
many codepath interpret (rightfully) this as meaning "nothing to do".
This patch adds a new CSYNC_INSTRUCTION_UPDATE_METADATA instruction
to let the update and reconcile steps tell the SyncEngine to update
the metadata of a file without any propagation. Other flags are left
to be interpretted by the implementation as implicitly needing
metadata update or not, as this was already the case for most file
propagation jobs. For example, CSYNC_INSTRUCTION_NEW for directories
now also implicitly update the metadata.
Since it's not impossible for folders to emit CSYNC_INSTRUCTION_SYNC
or CSYNC_INSTRUCTION_CONFLICT, the corresponding code paths in the
sync engine have been removed.
Since the reconcile step can now know if the local tree needs metadata
update while the remote side might want propagation, the
localMetadataUpdate logic in SyncEngine::treewalkFile now simply use
a CSYNC_INSTRUCTION_UPDATE_METADATA for the local side, which is now
implemented as a different database query.
