We centralize the creation paths for test indexes, fields,
etcetera so they all have a common path, all using standard
test holders. There's still two versions, one for test.* functions
and one for internal. They do share a TestHolderConfig though.
Large hunks of the related APIs are simplified/streamlined.
* Fragments are always created with a Field and don't need
a workaround in case they don't have it.
* Creation of test fragments, etc., use optional FieldOptions
but don't specify names because they're all using new holders
for each thing created anyway. This dramatically reduces
the complexity of the calls.
* test fragments are created inside test views which are created
inside test fields, etcetera, so everything is using the same
logic; test views aren't bypassing the other layers, they're
creating themselves normally within a field.
* Quite a few things now use the standard runtime/production
logic instead of being custom workarounds; for instance, instead
of `mustOpenMutexFragment` creating a fragment and then creating
a mutex vector for it, we just create a mutex-typed field and
have the normal runtime code do this.
* Similarly, we now use the same field creation logic that production
does, instead of having our own test-only thing that validates
field names directly, so our test that we're validating field names
is actually testing the runtime code. Yay.
* fragSpec goes away. it was a replacement for fragProxy which existed
to solve memory allocation problems but replaced them with interface
overhead problems. Now we just have pointers to things and maintain
valid data structures.
* Many panics are now Fatal or Fatalf calls.
* Some specific bugs fixed, like a cluster which was requested and
then had its first node directly overwritten, which isn't valid with
shared clusters.
* Drop the temp-dir test flag and TempDir variable, we can just use
$TMPDIR.
* Drop a benchmark of "write file to disk" that was purely a benchmark
of file write speed, not a benchmark of rendering the data that needs
to be written.
* Drop the unused "flags" parameter to fragment creation, which was
only used back when we changed the BSI format.
* Use holder.Txf() rather than index.Txf(). The TxFactory has to be
holder-level anyway, referring to it via the index is misleading.
* Test holders automatically close themselves and delete themselves,
we remove various other things that thought they were responsible
for deleting themselves.
When doing tests, we create a ton of one-off clusters. This
turns out to be expensive and slow. Fixing it is surprisingly hard.
Fundamentally: If we're sharing clusters, we need to use different
indexes for each test, to avoid clashes. This changes index names.
As a side-effect, this reorders many partition-based things, like
the order keys are returned in. Thus, to fix this, we change a lot
of tests to no longer depend on the *order* in which strings are
returned.
Having done that, we can also discard the ModHasher behavior, since
that only existed to allow us to reliably predict partitioning.
The basic design is as follows: Instead of a cluster being a
[]*Command, a "shareable" cluster is now a []*Command plus some
flags, and a "cluster" is a pointer to a possibly-shared cluster,
plus a link to the specific test using this specific cluster,
and correspondingly, its test name suitably coerced to be a valid
index name prefix.
The "test.Cluster" object now has methods to allow retrieving an
index name, and also implemnts fmt.Formatter to let you use,
e.g., `%i` with it in Sprintf to get "the index name, plus an i".
(This works for everything but %p and %T.)
This allows us to consistently rework all the many things that
use index names in a persistent way.
We also have `MustUnshared` and `MustRunUnsharedCluster` methods
which allow us to specify that a given test needs its own cluster
for some reason. For instance, the tests that want to run backups
need their own isolated cluster, and the tests that want to close
or reopen nodes need their own cluster because a reopened cluster
won't have working GRPC for some reason.
On "closing" a shared cluster (actually the test-specific wrapper
that reflects a given sharing), we delete any indexes starting with
that test's index name prefix. Otherwise, the huge pile of open
indexes prevents `go test -race` from working on MacOS, where we
run out of address space too quickly.
This is fairly enormous but most of the individual changes are
fairly trivial things like replacing the string "i" with "c.Idx()".
We also tweaked a test that failed for me a couple of times to
not depend on sort order.
So with the switch to a new linter, we get a lot of new warnings,
and the majority of them are harmless probably, but a few might be
real. Variously just use _ to suppress warnings, or report errors.
There's probably things here that deserve better fixes, but we can
always revisit it.
The http internal client's FragmentBlocks and Blockdata methods were being used
incorrectly, and incorrect respectively. One was not being passed a node URI by
monitorAntiEntropy, and the other was always using the defaultURI regardless of
what was passed to it. Antientropy was doubling not working because of this. I
think this crept in pretty recently, so hasn't actually affected anyone.
I exposed a SyncData method on Server so that we can invoke the anti entropy
task manually instead of trying to set up the interval so that it will run and
then sleeping and waiting for it to run. Now that this test works the way it
does, the other anti entropy test is obsolete, and I deleted it.
Server initializing happens more in NewServer than Open now - expecting to
continue this trend. goal was to remove remoteClient from Server (since it has a
defaultClient) as well, but we'll have to refactor the client usage in fragment
and frame first.
trying to separate internal an external concerns in pilosa.Server - it should
handle Cluster, Holder, etc. while pilosa/server handles things with external
deps - e.g. Logger, Stats, Handler, etc. Using functional options in
pilosa.Server now.
