- fix a CI/Makefile issue that was hiding red tests in CI.
- the testv and testv-race targets now require /bin/bash
- In executor.go, the top-level query context Qcx now
has a write flag. It will upgrade read-Tx to write-Tx
when Store() wraps some inner local-read operations,
to avoid deadlocking against its own query. This deadlock
happens in TestExecutor_Execute_SetRow/Set_NewRow
under rbf_lmdb blue-green testing without the upgrade.
- correct string constants for txtype so that
blue-green cleanup correctly detects when
2nd transaction in a pair has Committed and
thus the blue-green RWMutex can be relased
- test that txtype.String() is consistent with
the corresponding string constants.
- document in bluegreentx.go the current limitations
of blue-green testing: only one github archive import
(a single writing client) is supported by blue-green
testing. Multiple importers will deadlock eventually
on the DBShard.mut RWMutex. We could fix this by
ordering the write locks and obtaining them in
strictly increasing order (by shard number), but
that would require alot of change to the executor
and that would introduce more risk for a test-only
pathway.
- allows blue-green testing with concurrent readers/writers.
- otherwise we don't start/end the blue and green Tx
together, and they get split by a read/write concurrently.
I have a newer staticcheck and golangci-lint on my laptop, and it started
complaining about something. The first comment added disables the check
in staticcheck-as-a-command, the second disables it when it's being done
by golangci-lint, which invokes the analysis passes directly and displays
the output differently, and also doesn't recognize the hints used by
staticcheck.
Newer golangci-lint doesn't find anything else that it wants to complain
about.
1.14 had a bug in the checkptr code (well, not exactly a bug) which
made it enforce alignment requirements on x86. This turns out not
to be the problem I was seeing, but we should be on 1.14.9 anyway.
To keep this from breaking CI integration with Github, we also
use explicit job names instead of matrix-generated ones, and fix
the CI config syntax up a bit after almost getting that right the
first try. (This patch includes fixes contributed by Cody, and since
I had to rebase and re-approve AGAIN anyway, I might as well squash
the commit history up.)
Step one: switch to etcd.io's bbolt fork of boltdb.
The etcd-io fork of boltdb isn't archived, and has fixes for boltdb's
interactions with checkptr, allowing us to drop the checkptr-disabling
hackery.
This seems to be a drop-in replacement; etcd/bbolt says that the file
format is "fixed" (I believe in the sense of "unchanging"), and I can
run pilosa on an existing data directory with this.
Step two:
Fix missing caps in roaring.go that were also triggering the same
issues.
Add test of single = int query over multiple shards which reproduces
the race
move the code which modifies the PQL call object if a Row query
on an int field uses a single = instead of ==. Instead of processing
this at the shard level, we'll process it during the initial
translation step so that it isn't operated on concurrently.
In rare cases, RBF can produce containers which have a recorded N value which
is incorrect. This rarely affects anything, but on some particular queries,
this can result in very strange outcomes, like array containers with more
than 1<<16 entries.
To fix this, we have toContainer specify that it doesn't know the correct
N for the bitmap containers it's creating, which costs extra time for counting,
and should be considered a temporary workaround.
Also, we add a CheckN() function which is controlled by the
roaringparanoia flag, and add a number of calls to it, for instance, as
deferred calls after every container operation when roaringparanoia is
enabled. This means that we get improved confidence that we've caught
the relevant errors, but is not suitable for production use.
