This allows a BSI field to have an option indicating
that it is a foreign key to another index. If the foreign
index has column keys, then this field handles string values
by using the foreign index's translate store.
This pins us to the initial external release of molecula/ext, which
with any luck will be the only one. (Narrator: It was not to be the
only one.) We also use GOPRIVATE so we don't need a replace directive.
After a few experiments with pkg/plugin, I'm ready to concede that the
people warning me it was unsuitable for production use were in fact
correct.
In the brave new world, the "ext" package is moved to its own module
outside pilosa. This means that importing it doesn't imply any need to
version-check against pilosa; we can just use versioned copies of the
ext package, which can be public because it doesn't contain anything
we need to care about keeping proprietary.
Then we can, conditional on build tags, import modules from a
neighboring repo which contains the actual implementations, and if
they're imported, their init functions register them.
So in some cases, when we do a query, the results of one
part of the query are innately shared-across-nodes; for
instance, a hypothetical Distinct query. More generally,
we allow cross-index queries; calls can have "index=foo"
in them.
This patch lets us handle that without duplicating that
query all over. Before we actually start doing the
separate calls, we run the query once from the coordinating
node, then patch the results in, and send relevant subsets
over to each client, etcetera. Also provides slightly
friendlier (and I hope faster) support for converting
bitmaps to/from sets of rows.
We also add an extension interface, and some fancy stuff
to let us define new calls, which use this. They're sort
of tied together because the first extension I wanted to
implement needed precomputed calls. The extension API
lets us create extensions using `pkg/plugin` (with all its
associated limitations, unfortunately), then query them
at load time for functionality.
This also implies some revamping of the argument
validation for PQL, like verifying that functions exist
and knowing things about their argument types.
So basically this is an overly intrusive patch, and would
be better as separate patches, but they're hard to detangle.
add trivial execution-time profiling
What if you could ?profile=true on a query and get some
numbers back? That'd be really cool.
We already have tracing/spans, but right now, those only generate
any data if you have something set up for them to trace to. Add a
fancy wrapper that lets us generate our own tracing data, and dump
it into the request response, if ?profile=true.
add a sample extension, add missing features to extension interface
Implement a naive probabilistic filter extension as an example of
what an extension looks like. In the process, discover multiple
omissions in the bitmap API. Well, I did *say* it was experimental.
This change should have been adding the "GetClientCertificate"
function in server/tlsconfig.go. This is in addition to the
GetCertificate func which is only used by servers. It ended up being
much more involved for a few reasons:
1. We had no way of passing a configured HTTP client into the
translate store stuff.
2. Our cluster tests assumed http, not HTTPS, and didn't have any way
to pass the necessary configuration in.
3. I encountered what turned out to be an unrelated bug in
cmd/server_test.go which is why I moved "close(m.Started)" in
server/server.go. Basically, I was running something on port 10111
which caused the test to fail (because it was trying to bind to that),
but the failure was not immediately caught during server startup
because the m.Started channel got closed which allowed the test code
to fall through to where it called m.Close() which then got a nil
pointer exception because m.Handler had never been set up.
4. Our test code was assuming that it could create clients that
ignored the config, which meant they didn't do TLS. I added an
InternalClient() method to pilosa.Server to expose the configured
client.
we are experiencing issues with CI where it fails with race: limit on
8128 simultaneously alive goroutines is exceeded, dying
this, despite the fact that closing the executor should clean up all
worker goroutines. Apparently in CircleCI runtime.NumCPU() reports 36,
so the goroutines added up quickly.
the size of the work chan probably doesn't matter... there is some
discussion of this on the associated PR
https://github.com/pilosa/pilosa/pull/2034
may test with an unbuffered channel as well.
Closing the executor avoids leaking goroutines which seems to be an
issue while running the test suite.
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.
needed an unlocked version of sendsync for use within the cluster, so also
implemented that. Added a number of tests trying to reproduce the issue, but was
not able to. Not sure it's worth keeping the new tests.
I'd like to add stat tracking to Roaring, which means it
has to be able to import the stats package, which means
stats has to be a package rather than part of the pilosa
package. If stats stops being in pilosa, it still needs
a way to import logger, so logger also has to leave the
pilosa package. Then everything using them needs to import
them and use package selectors on their names.
This doesn't actually add the stats support to roaring,
it just makes it so there's a way to import the stats
code from something in the roaring package.
This commit adds the ability to remove an 'available shard'
from the shard cache. This does not affect shards known to be
available because of local data.
