A few things were going wrong here.
First, we take a "RetryPeriod" option on backup and restore which is
meant to be roughly the total amount of time we spend retrying any
given request before failing. However we were incorrectly passing that
as the RetryMaxWait which is the maximum amount of time to sleep
between any two attempts. We now do some fuzzy math to figure out
approximately how many attempts we should make given a minimum sleep
of 100ms and the fact that we double the sleep time every attempt.
Second, during the backup test, if a host was totally stopped when we
started the request, it would fail immediately and then retry, but if
the host was stopped during the request (after DNS had resolved), then
the request would wait for the DialTimeout which we default to 30s, so
turning off the cluster for 5 seconds and turning it back on resulted
in the backup completing rather than failing. Because of this, we
change the commandClient to have a default dial timeout of 1 second.
I was tempted to change the global default to 1s which I think would
be fine, but didn't want to break anything too badly.
instead of awkwardly reading an entire file into a buffer, we use
retryablehttp's reader func to open the file fresh if we need to
retry, so a small fixed-size buffer can be used internally for copying
the contents onto the network.
also found a weird issue with schema marshalling
if you create a field thru the api w/o specifying a field type, you
get slightly different behavior than going thru the HTTP handler which
is... not ideal. I changed the marshaler to accept an empty field type.
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
```
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.
These commits are hard to disentagle, and doing them separately means
re-modifying the same chunks of code several times before removing it,
and similar things.
Basically:
(1) Drop the bolt backend storage.
(2) Drop the blue-green wrapper that compares two backends.
(3) Drop unused or barely-used Tx API components from all the
remaining backends.
(4) Minor related cleanup to simplify things related to these.
The boltdb backend existed only to verify RBF. The blue-green wrapper
was mostly used to verify RBF, but in practice we had to do a lot
of working around that, and it introduced a lot of special cases.
Types removed:
IteratorFinder: Used only to implement the roaring iterator
on top of boltdb, and to complicate the way it worked in roaring.
Reverted the complications. Also unexport NewSliceContainers
which is used only for that outside of roaring's internals.
PortMapper from cluster_internal_test.go: Used only for a test
we removed early this year. Never used for anything else.
RawRoaringData: Totally unused.
TxStore: Totally unused.
Functions removed from Tx API, and sometimes corresponding
members were removed from structs:
* Dump: debugging code, I don't think I found any actually reachable
paths to it.
* Group: only used for debugging TxGroup stuff
* IncrementOpN: only used by fragment, fragment can increment its
own opN.
* Options: unused?
* Pointer: debugging only
* Readonly: used only to decide how to handle Tx in a TxGrp,
but we never add a non-readonly Tx to a TxGrp. Removed also all
the corresponding write-aware stuff.
* RoaringBitmapReader: Used exactly once, can just be a bm.WriteTo.
* Sn (and OpenSnList): Unused
* UnionInPlace: unused and conceptually-invalid; it didn't write
to storage and shouldn't have, and was just "create a bitmap
then call union-in-place", which we can do directly.
* UseRowCache: just checked storage.UseRowCache.
Other things removed:
The SetRequiredForAtomicWriteTx and ClearRequiredForAtomicWriteTx
functions go away, since nothing now seems to be using them? Same
for holder_internal_test's `testHasBit` and `testMustNotHaveBit`,
which were unused.
The DBPerShard "DeleteDBPath" and "HasData" functions and related
parts were mostly unused; took out the parts that were never
actually being reached.
Changed the API of one function to simplify special cases and
remove things:
* ImportRoaringBits had a special "data" argument which gave it
subtly different semantics for RBF and roaring (for roaring, it
could produce a roaring bitmap *with ops log*), didn't seem to
be adding much. Removed corresponding "readStorageFromArchive"
which is not otherwise used.
Also took out various debugging/dumping functions that were unused
and may have bitrotted.
Dropped a test from txfactory_internal_test, and the "pjobs"
code, because those two were the only things that needed Barrier
and thus idem, which lets us drop two more dependencies. We already
have errgroup for grouping things which want to terminate as
soon as one of them errors, approximately. To do better we'd have
to have context-threading, really.
Unbroke the WriteFragment test for non-roaring tests and made it
not roaring-only.
This commit adds a `Future` scope to the configuration options, and for
the time being includes a single flag within that scope: `rename`.
Usage:
--future.rename
The value is a boolean available internally at: m.Config.Future.Rename
It's not enough to back up each index's translation keys after
backing up that index's data; we also have to back them up after
backing up any index data from indexes which have foreign key
references to that index. So we do the per-index passes separately.
Since the individual backup data files are being created separately,
the expected output is unchanged for a quiescent database, the only
difference is that the amount of translation info which might be
newer than the data stored for shards is potentially increased.
Previously the backup tool only fsync'ed the files.
Since the directories were not synced, it was possible for the references to be lost.
Now we sync the entire output directory tree and its parent.
