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.
We had two different, incompatible-with-each-other, and both
individually broken, partial implementations of resizing logic.
There's the original pre-etcd resize, and then the etcd resize,
and neither works, but there's conflicts between the ways they
don't work.
No attempt to fix this is likely to yield decent results, so
instead, we yank them both out entirely, so if we decide to
implement resizing (which we will) we won't be confused by
stray code pertaining to resizing that's not really hooked
up to anything.
We're leaving the resize messages in protobuf to avoid renumbering
protobuf messages. We rename some of our message types to UNUSED0,
etcetera, so that any code still using the old names won't
compile, to make sure we get rid of it, but we can't just drop
the numbers without breaking rolling restart.
The Resize_AddNode tests are removed not just because we don't
have resizing, but because they were completely broken anyway
and never worked at all. But there's no reason to fix them because
they exist to fix the functionality we didn't have and are now
removing the vestigial remains of.
We also drop the one usage of the AddNode function of Noder, because
it was used only by one test code fragment that was creatincg clusters,
and that can be done more correctly. There were no other call sites
at all.
We mark the monitorAntiEntropy function to be ignored by
code coverage because it's not actually being covered. There's
a separate ticket for removing that entirely.
* Revert "make pql.Decimal.Value a private big.Int field"
This reverts commit eab6174388.
* Revert "pql.Decimal for DecimalVal in ValCount&GroupCount"
This reverts commit a0c9eec410.
* Revert "Add AddDecimal support to pql"
This reverts commit 50787fd37a.
This ensures that we can't overflow when adding `pql.Decimal`s together. The
only place we can possibly overflow is when converting pql.Decimal to an Int64,
but that is a risk we have to take. Also, the only place we do this is in our
ToRowser. We could maybe change that to strings, so the presentation of data
doesn't indicate an overflow, but that is a later decision to make. It will
also involve fixing the generate-proto-grpc make command, because that's broken
rn.
MacOS's firewall complains about a previously unknown app trying to
listen for network connections whenever we run go test. That's because
we *are* listening for network connections on arbitrary interfaces, not
just on localhost as we probably intended. Fix that.
This commit effectively removes the API-level validation that was
blocking certain API methods when the cluster was in a particular state
(namely DOWN and DEGRADED). The thinking is that we shouldn't be
blocking these requests at the API level, but rather should let them
pass through and allow the fact that a node is ACTUALLY down dictate the
behavior.
With this change, two tests were modified. They were previously
expecting the error message from the API validation on DOWN, but now
they check for a "shard unavailable" error, which is what gets returned
for a particular query when the cluster is in an unhealthy state.
i used this script, a little clunky but it got the job done
```bash
for file in `find . -type f -print | grep '\.go'`; do
sed '1,/^\/\/ limitations under the License.$/d' $file > $file.tmp;
result=`cat $file.tmp`
if [[ result != "" ]]; then
gofmt $file.tmp &> /dev/null;
if [[ $? == 0 ]]; then
mv $file.tmp $file && gofmt -w $file;
else
rm $file.tmp;
fi
else
rm $file.tmp;
fi
done
```
The "just open the holder" subcommand doesn't work the way it used
to, because now that we rely on etcd to open a holder, trying to open
a holder without things set up just coredumps.
Step 1: Fix that.
Step 2: Also add a test that covers it so we don't get bitrotted again.
Step 3: Remove an unrelated stale comment that doesn't deserve its
own commit log, having to do with an option that no longer exists
which is no longer being set right under the comment saying we set it.
Underlying goal: Don't use the http client to send messages back to the
local host. Also, when sending data to other nodes, don't collate it
from an ImportRequest into a completely different format, then immediately
collate that back into an ImportRequest. This does require changing
the logic over in ctl/import to make it create an ImportRequest.
Also, add additional testing to make sure we're actually trying anything
at all with several combinations (such as submitting import requests
which don't match the configuration of index or field), and improve
test coverage for that.
This introduces the ability to tell an http/client InternalClient about
a specific API that it should use for local queries where applicable.
That's not implemented outside of the import stuff, but should probably
be applied eventually to other things that are trying to talk to many
nodes one of which may be the local node. That behavior is contingent
on passing in a Qcx, because it is implicitly tied to an existing
execution context, and it can't assume that it can create a new one,
because that could deadlock.
Attributes are unmaintained and unused.
They have become more of a liability than a benefit.
This change eliminates them from the codebase.
The only user-visible change (assuming that attrs are not used) is that the attrs field will no longer appear in row JSON.
A while back we started just polling the reported cluster state of one node
when starting a cluster for tests. This works fine if we're doing fresh
new etcd queries for every single operation -- but that's insanely
expensive, it turns out.
When we use the watcher, some nodes will report stale data for "a
while", where "a while" appears to be easily a couple dozen milliseconds.
This is probably irrelevant in most real-world cases, because the common
case (detecting a node going down) means that we have at least five
seconds after a node goes down before etcd notices the lease expiring,
and a few milliseconds more or less won't matter.
But we have tests that assume either that node 0 is always the
coordinator (wrong) or that waiting for node 0 to think the cluster
is up means that every node in the cluster thinks the cluster is up,
or at least that it means that the coordinator thinks the cluster is
up. We retried later operations but not the initial ones against
the coordinator.
In fact, we probably want to wait for the entire cluster to think
it's up before we start trying things on clusters.
We also replace the "CheckClusterState" function with the existing
AwaitState call, or a new AssertState which errors out since that's
the way we usually use AwaitState anyway.
In the AwaitPrimaryState function, which used to be
AwaitCoordinatorState in a different long-lost revision, we have
to delay until a primary node is available, or fail if one does
not become available, to avoid a panic. This probably shouldn't
happen anymore, because of the last change:
Also, rovide dummy topology.Node entries before metadata is read.
During initial startup, we want to be able to do things like determine
which node is the primary, even before we've read metadata from them.
To do this, we populate the node list with dummy entries that just have
the ID (the only part we need to sort our list), and a node state of
UNKNOWN.
This breaks the fancy logic for determining whether or not to update
the node data, because the initial status of UNKNOWN matches what we
get from SetMetadata giving us new data so we end up not realizing
that this was actually a meaningful change. But actually, that's
a pretty niche optimization; we usually only get state changes when
there's an actual change in state. The updates here are cheap
and only happen after a write (or on the first query) so it's not
worth making the logic a lot fancier to make it work, when we can
just do the simple thing and update any time the dirty flag is set.
We also standardize on a 50ms delay, because 1ms delays were
really expensive when each check was hitting etcd multiple times,
and 50ms is Usually Long Enough.
This gives more consistency with the other tests and allows us to get audit
checks on the server/ tests. The tests on the clients being closed are
temporarily disabled because they tend to think the last test's clients
are "still open" for a few seconds after the test completes.
Long story short: Once we create a server and start it, we can't start
it again. We can't close it and restart it, and we can't just start
it without closing it.
Unfortunately, if the server's config needs to change, we have a Problem
here.
This ultimately means that the retry logic for GetListeners can't actually
retry successfully; if we fail on the first attempt, we necessarily fail
on any later attempts also, and if we try to fix that, we get panics.
But!
We don't actually NEED to retry. We just need to ensure that we can
open a :0 port, extract the actual port number, and use that in places
where the port number mattered, without having to rebind it.
The only actual place we needed to rebind things was opening gRPC
servers, so we introduce a gRPC Listener that can be used instead of
trying to bind to a specified port.
In a bunch of other cases where we had similar logic to try to allocate
and then use a port, we can switch to just using a provided listener.
For instance, net/http has `Serve(net.Listener, handler)`, not just
ListenAndServe(addr, handler).
This should eliminate the weird CI failures from eaddrinuse.
NOT fixed: server/cluster_test.go/TestClusterResize_AddNode isn't working
right now. The new node isn't actually being added to the existing cluster.
I attempted this but was outsmarted by it, and I think fixing the
rest of this is worth it as a separate thing.
We want to distinguish different *kinds* of GroupCounts, so we're
making the GroupCounts parent object track its type so we can keep that
correct.
Adding this to protobuf, etc, then creates some weird behaviors
because sometimes we expect []GroupCount, and sometimes we expect
*GroupCounts. This implies changes to test cases. Also, the
changes to test cases imply that some test cases are probably now
wrong; for instance, they're expecting a "sum" column, equal to zero,
when no sum was requested.
We try to make the encoder handle a []*GroupCount gotten from another
node without panicing, and avoid breaking the semantics of the existing
messages, renumbering messages or components, etc.
Since a previous version, the `.Groups` member has been privatized,
and the `.Get()` convenience accessor has been renamed `.Groups()`
and is now used consistently in a way that should reduce the risk
of nil pointers causing crashes. Also, NewGroupCounts is used in
a couple more places.
