22<B>OVERVIEW</B>
23  Google Cloud Storage provides a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) header that
24  allows clients to verify the integrity of object contents. For non-composite
25  objects GCS also provides an MD5 header to allow clients to verify object
26  integrity, but for composite objects only the CRC is available. gsutil
27  automatically performs integrity checks on all uploads and downloads.
28  Additionally, you can use the "gsutil hash" command to calculate a CRC for
29  any local file.
30
31  The CRC variant used by Google Cloud Storage is called CRC32C (Castagnoli),
32  which is not available in the standard Python distribution. The implementation
33  of CRC32C used by gsutil is provided by a third-party Python module called
34  `crcmod <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/crcmod>`_.
35
36  The crcmod module contains a pure-Python implementation of CRC32C, but using
37  it results in very poor performance. A Python C extension is also provided by
38  crcmod, which requires compiling into a binary module for use. gsutil ships
39  with a precompiled crcmod C extension for Mac OS X; for other platforms, see
40  the installation instructions below.
41
42  At the end of each copy operation, the gsutil cp and rsync commands validate
43  that the checksum of the source file/object matches the checksum of the
44  destination file/object. If the checksums do not match, gsutil will delete
45  the invalid copy and print a warning message. This very rarely happens, but
46  if it does, please contact gs-team@google.com.
47
48
49<B>CONFIGURATION</B>
50  To determine if the compiled version of crcmod is available in your Python
51  environment, you can inspect the output of the gsutil version command for the
52  "compiled crcmod" entry::
53
54    $ gsutil version -l
55    ...
56    compiled crcmod: True
57    ...
58
59  If your crcmod library is compiled to a native binary, this value will be
60  True. If using the pure-Python version, the value will be False.
61
62  To control gsutil's behavior in response to crcmod's status, you can set the
63  "check_hashes" configuration variable. For details on this variable, see the
64  surrounding comments in your gsutil configuration file. If check_hashes is not
65  present in your configuration file, rerun gsutil config to regenerate the
66  file.

69<B>INSTALLATION</B>
70  CentOS, RHEL, and Fedora
71  ------------------------
72
73  To compile and install crcmod:
74
75    sudo yum install gcc python-devel python-setuptools
76    sudo easy_install -U pip
77    sudo pip uninstall crcmod
78    sudo pip install -U crcmod
79
80  Debian and Ubuntu
81  -----------------
82
83  To compile and install crcmod:
84
85    sudo apt-get install gcc python-dev python-setuptools
86    sudo easy_install -U pip
87    sudo pip uninstall crcmod
88    sudo pip install -U crcmod
89
90  Mac OS X
91  --------
92
93  gsutil distributes a pre-compiled version of crcmod for OS X, so you shouldn't
94  need to compile and install it yourself. If for some reason the pre-compiled
95  version is not being detected, please let the Google Cloud Storage team know
96  (see "gsutil help support").
97
98  To compile manually on OS X, you will first need to install
99  `XCode <https://developer.apple.com/xcode/>`_ and then run:
100
101    sudo easy_install -U pip
102    sudo pip install -U crcmod
103
104  Windows
105  -------
106
107  An installer is available for the compiled version of crcmod from the Python
108  Package Index (PyPi) at the following URL:
109
110  https://pypi.python.org/pypi/crcmod/1.7
111
112  MSI installers are available for the 32-bit versions of Python 2.6 and 2.7.
113  Make sure to install to a 32-bit Python directory. If you're using 64-bit
114  Python it won't work with 32-bit crcmod, and instead you'll need to install
115  32-bit Python in order to use crcmod.
116
117  Note: If you have installed crcmod and gsutil hasn't detected it, it may have
118  been installed to the wrong directory. It should be located at
119  <python_dir>\\files\\Lib\\site-packages\\crcmod\\
120
121  In some cases the installer will incorrectly install to
122  <python_dir>\\Lib\\site-packages\\crcmod\\
123
124  Manually copying the crcmod directory to the correct location should resolve
125  the issue.
