This puts the generation of the initial event into the Next method of
the GAPI. If it does not happen, then we will never get a graph. This is
important because this notifies the GAPI when we're actually ready to
try and generate a graph, rather than blocking on the Graph method if we
have a long compile for example.
This is also required for the etcd watch cleanup.
This cleans up the API to not have a special case for etcd anymore. In
particular, this also adds the requirement that the GAPI must generate
an event on startup as soon as it is ready to generate a graph.
Avoid use of the reflect package, and use an extensible list of registred
resource kinds. This also has the benefit of removing the empty VirtRes and
AugeasRes struct types when compiling without libvirt and libaugeas.
This causes a graph to actually stop processing part way through, even
if there are poke's that want to continue on. This is so that the user
experience of pressing ^C actually causes a shutdown without finishing
the graph execution. It might be preferred to have this be a user
defined setting at some point in the future, such as if the user presses
^C twice. As well, we might want to implement an interrupt API so that
individual resource execution can be asked to bail out early if
requested. This could happen on a third ^C press.
This was necessary to fix some "import cycle" errors I was having when
adding the World api to the resource Data struct.
I think this is a good hint that I need to start splitting up existing
packages into sub files, and cleaning up and inter-package problems too.
This adds a P/V style semaphore mechanism to the resource graph. This
enables the user to specify a number of "id:count" tags associated with
each resource which will reduce the parallelism of the CheckApply
operation to that maximum count.
This is particularly interesting because (assuming I'm not mistaken) the
implementation is dead-lock free assuming that no individual resource
permanently ever blocks during execution! I don't have a formal proof of
this, but I was able to convince myself on paper that it was the case.
An actual proof that N P/V counting semaphores in a DAG won't ever
dead-lock would be particularly welcome! Hint: the trick is to acquire
them in alphabetical order while respecting the DAG flow. Disclaimer,
this assumes that the lock count is always > 0 of course.
