The *Secure Channel* splits the object content into chunks of a fixed size of `65536` bytes. The last chunk may be smaller to avoid adding additional overhead and is treated specially to prevent truncation attacks. The nonce value is 96 bits long and generated randomly per object / multi-part part. The *Secure Channel* supports plaintexts up to `65536 * 2^32 = 256 TiB`.

### Configuring connection limit

`/<user-running-minio>/.minio/certs`.

*Tip*: In a standard Kubernetes configuration, this will be `/root/.minio/certs`. Kubernetes will mount the secrets volume read-only,

- Read the release notes for MinIO *before* performing any upgrade, there is no forced requirement to upgrade to latest release upon every release. Some release may not be relevant to your setup, avoid upgrading production environments unnecessarily.
- If you plan to use `mc admin update`, MinIO process must have write access to the parent directory where the binary is present on the host system.

implementation.  The HPACK test cases are in a separate git submodule, so to
initialize them, you must run:

    git submodule init
    git submodule update

TODO
----

 * Add maven goal to avoid manual call to git submodule init.
 * Make hpack-test-case update itself from git, and run new tests.
 * Add maven goal to generate stories and a pull request to hpack-test-case
   to have others validate our output.

**In our tests we also found ext4 does not honor POSIX O_DIRECT/Fdatasync semantics, ext4 trades performance for consistency guarantees. Please avoid ext4 in your setup.**
