## Setting up your development environment

In order to make changes to Gradle, you'll need:

* A [Java Development Kit](http://jdk.java.net/) (JDK) **version 11**. Fixed version is required to use [remote cache](#remote-build-cache). 

	// Reorder online disks based on erasure distribution order.
	// Reorder parts metadata based on erasure distribution order.
	onlineDisks, metaArr = shuffleDisksAndPartsMetadataByIndex(onlineDisks, metaArr, fi)

	// For negative length read everything.
	if length < 0 {
		length = fi.Size - startOffset
	}

	errorFmtFunc = f
}

// uniq swaps away duplicate elements in data, returning the size of the
// unique set. data is expected to be pre-sorted, and the resulting set in
// the range [0:size] will remain in sorted order. Uniq, following a
// sort.Sort call, can be used to prepare arbitrary inputs for use as sets.
func uniq(data sort.Interface) (size int) {
	p, l := 0, data.Len()
	if l <= 1 {
		return l
	}

	// and kubelet (skippable) traffic would have the same srcip once they got to the pod, and would be indistinguishable.
	//
	// Note that SortedList is used here because the istio sets class has no order guarantees,
	// and our unit tests will flake if rules have a nondeterministic ordering.
	// CLI: -t mangle -A ISTIO_PRERT -s 169.254.7.127 -p tcp -m tcp --dport <PROBEPORT> -j ACCEPT
