This is logically two separate things, but the individual changes
are thoroughly intertwined in the code.
The first change is a logical change to the design of the snapshot
queue, which is that it now adjusts the maxOpN the background scan
targets, allowing it to lower that value over time when things are
quiet. We do this because it turns out that on large data sets,
this can make a factor-of-four difference in memory usage!
So, in general, on a quiet system, each pass through the holder
aims for about 1/4 of the existing fragments to get snapshotted.
When there's more load, we adjust those values up.
We also make the snapshot queue a bit less chatty, to make testing
less annoying -- we only print stats if the queue enqueues at least
two snapshots, or skips any.
The second change is threading the holder through things. We've
always threaded the logger through, and then added the snapshot
queue, and some of the Inspect-related work led to wanting to
have a way to thread options through, so what if we just threaded
the holder itself through, and removed the direct copying around
of the logger, snapshot queue, and so on. Similarly, everything
can now use holder.PartitionN instead of having to get its own
copy of PartitionN handed out to each index.
This does imply ensuring that test cases always get a reasonable
default holder.
This is a precursor to adding additional information to the holder,
such as whether it's in a special read-only mode, which would imply
not modifying on-disk files. This is already semi-supported for
the specific case of the background snapshot queue and cache flushing,
which are attached to the (created in a previous commit) new
holder Activate method, instead of being automatic on holder Open.
The change to a snapshot queue can also cause races in tests, because
the fragment.Clean method's "sanity check" accesses a fragment without
a lock. Fix that. Since there's a couple of t.Fatalf(), but we need
to release the lock before closing, we use an anonymous function
with a defer to handle that. Whee!
There's no reason to have 10-20 seconds of delays for testing this,
because in testing, we're running things on the local machine and don't
need to worry about significant network lag. Make retry count and delay
settable options, and set them lower. Moves the Replica2 test in
server/server_test.go from ~21s to ~2s.
I think this will improve the transaction response messages Kuba
mentioned where it was an empty transaction instead of a nil or not
there... if not it should make it easier to do that anyhow.
also adds a "noSleep" option to the server command to avoid the 5
second sleep we introduced on startup for non-coordinator cluster
nodes. The sleep doesn't seem to be needed in the tests and makes them
much slower.
This PR adds support for anti-entropy syncing for integer
and decimal fields. It differs from the logic for other
field types in that it does not rely on a consensus to determine
what the value should be; instead, it considers the correct
values to be those of the primary replica. From there, data
is pushed to all non-primary replicas.
With the new addition of the holder background scan, it's possible
for an open holder to write log messages at arbitrary times. The
TestHolder_Open/ErrIndexName test checks the contents of the output
buffer, but those contents could be changing if the background task
happens to run at the right time. Use trivial locking around that
so that this shouldn't happen.
add makeRows() tests
register the gRPC server
use api.Index() instead of api.Schema()
support most field types in Inspect() query
currently, there's no support for `time` fields.
those will be dependent upon the output format
and the ability to materialize the timestamp from
the time views.
this commit also changes the response type of the
`Inspect()` query to be a tabular `RowResponse`.
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.
also fix a *bunch* of tests that weren't closing the clusters they
created. Cleaned up one test to use t.Run instead of just checking
everything in a loop
the buffers were unused internally and external users had no access to them.
Those wishing to read the logs of the cluster in tests may replace stdout/stderr
with buffers on the Command struct.
The race occurred when a node was stopped and then started again. some
memberlist goroutines might not be completely cleaned up by the time the node
restarted, and then two loggers were using the same output buffer.
cluster is in degraded state when some number of nodes greater than 0 but less
than replicaN have failed. This is sort of a hybrid of "STARTING" and "NORMAL"
states because we can still respond to queries as in the NORMAL state, but we
need to be alert to re-add nodes to the cluster if they come back online which
required some changes to the cluster logic.
In order to make debugging easier, the test.MustRunCluster functionality now
names the nodes in the cluster explicitly as "node0", "node1", etc. "node0" is
the coordinator.
A number of TODOs are left in the test for scenarios that need to be checked.
refactor handler Close func to use errgroup to be a bit less messy.
refactor pilosa.Server closing to actually return an underlying error if one occurs
add option to pilosa/test.Cluster and pilosa/server.Command to control close
timeout. currently is only used by the http handler, but conceivably could be
passed as a parameter to other subsystems of pilosa/server.Command
