enriched metadata for tables
added support for the concept of a table and field owners in metadata; mechanism to derive owner from http request metadata; metadata for table description
We centralize the creation paths for test indexes, fields,
etcetera so they all have a common path, all using standard
test holders. There's still two versions, one for test.* functions
and one for internal. They do share a TestHolderConfig though.
Large hunks of the related APIs are simplified/streamlined.
* Fragments are always created with a Field and don't need
a workaround in case they don't have it.
* Creation of test fragments, etc., use optional FieldOptions
but don't specify names because they're all using new holders
for each thing created anyway. This dramatically reduces
the complexity of the calls.
* test fragments are created inside test views which are created
inside test fields, etcetera, so everything is using the same
logic; test views aren't bypassing the other layers, they're
creating themselves normally within a field.
* Quite a few things now use the standard runtime/production
logic instead of being custom workarounds; for instance, instead
of `mustOpenMutexFragment` creating a fragment and then creating
a mutex vector for it, we just create a mutex-typed field and
have the normal runtime code do this.
* Similarly, we now use the same field creation logic that production
does, instead of having our own test-only thing that validates
field names directly, so our test that we're validating field names
is actually testing the runtime code. Yay.
* fragSpec goes away. it was a replacement for fragProxy which existed
to solve memory allocation problems but replaced them with interface
overhead problems. Now we just have pointers to things and maintain
valid data structures.
* Many panics are now Fatal or Fatalf calls.
* Some specific bugs fixed, like a cluster which was requested and
then had its first node directly overwritten, which isn't valid with
shared clusters.
* Drop the temp-dir test flag and TempDir variable, we can just use
$TMPDIR.
* Drop a benchmark of "write file to disk" that was purely a benchmark
of file write speed, not a benchmark of rendering the data that needs
to be written.
* Drop the unused "flags" parameter to fragment creation, which was
only used back when we changed the BSI format.
* Use holder.Txf() rather than index.Txf(). The TxFactory has to be
holder-level anyway, referring to it via the index is misleading.
* Test holders automatically close themselves and delete themselves,
we remove various other things that thought they were responsible
for deleting themselves.
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.
* 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.
This is a lot more complex than it sounds like it will be.
We shut down the cache flush when a holder is closed, but if you're
deleting an index, we don't check for that, and can have a cache flush
still creating cache files in an index which could conceivably result
in os.RemoteAll() failing. This shouldn't happen often, but it's happened
at least once.
To address this, first, we make sure that every tier of this operation
bails as quickly as it can after the thing it's working on closes. Second,
we retry RemoveAll.
Unfortunately, some things get reopened, so we have to handle that,
have mutexes covering the access to the channel, and so on. Also, some
things were getting double-closed, which was previously harmless but
could now fail. So, first, catch all the existing double-closes and
remove them, second, make the double-close fail with an error. Note
that virtually none of the tests check for errors on close.
This passes tests and should be unable to hit the original problem.
Unfortunately, it's unreasonably hard to check that, because it
requires an incredible coincidence of timing on the delete aligning
with a cache flush.
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
```
Performance of tests on MacOS has been atrocious for a while, and
a lot of that is fsync, so we're trying to make that optional.
To test all of this, I modified RBF to panic if anything tried to
open an RBF database without disabling fsync, and ran the tests that
way, and tracked down the various places this could still happen.
There's a lot of places in our tree where we were creating
test holders which were not getting created with fsync disabled, which
results in a surprisingly large number of points at which we end
up calling fsync in tests, which makes tests much slower than they
need to be. There's also a bunch of places where the flags don't get
propagated correctly; for instance, storage.fsync didn't propagate
to the RBFConfig.
We add an "fsync enabled" flag to OpenTranslateStoreFunc, so we can
tell translation stores that we don't need syncing, so the server's
config can be passed on appropriately.
More of the test code that sets things up is correctly configuring
that flag by default.
We also change the barely-used bolt storage backend to support this as
well.
With this done, the only calls to fsync left in a run of `go test -short`
in the top-level directory are from the zap logger in etcd, and consumed
around 0.03 seconds. The overall impact is that `go test -short`
went from "takes enough more than 10 minutes that i don't know how long
it takes" to about 2.5 minutes.
- introduce Query Context (Qcx) for managing database-per-shard.
- replaces the MultiTx, so mtx.go is retired and removed.
- introduces the HolderConfig struct and all Holders now have
a path from birth.
- rbf speedups on bitwise writes
- badgerdb is removed due to unresolvable write conflicts.

The testhook/ package provides an easy way to set up multiple
hooks to run before/after tests are run.
The audit hooks track open and closes of storage backends,
files, indexes, and holders, for example. A tempdir wrapper
creates temporary directories which are automatically cleaned up
when the test ends. Any kind of resource creation that
should be closed at test conclusion can be tracked. We
will complain at the end of the TestMain if resources are
leaking.
Leaks under go1.13:
We use a wrapper function which is a no-op for go 1.13, but actually
calls testing.TB.Cleanup in go1.14, so we can still build with 1.13 even though
tests will leak files all over the place there. Because of this,
don't run the testhook tests when using 1.13, as they'll always fail.
- the test/pilosa.go http client now times out after 10 seconds
to help diagnose hung server situations.
- Makefile targets added to get better progress reports.
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!
This commit implements BSI with variable bit depth using a
sign magnitudeto indicate whether a value is positive or negative.
This also rearranges the existence bit to be the first bit instead
of the last bit.
the RangeEnabled option now has no effect, but it still exists in the API. A few
tests still use it to ensure this. This would only be considered a breaking
change if someone was relying on Pilosa to enforce the RangeEnabled: false
option to prevent fields being created in certain frames. This seems unlikely.
