Some cluster tests failed sporadically. In order to fix them, I
introduced some debugging-related functionality, which revealed
several new bugs that were actually existing bugs we just happened
not to hit in testing. This combines various fixes.
We start with "make the nodes used in testing have distinct names
based on the test case name", which lets us discover that we are
leaking clusters, which continue to sit around talking with each
other. That in turn causes significantly higher load on access to
ephemeral ports, which causes sporadic failures when we shut a
node down and try to restart it, but something else has gotten assigned
its ephemeral port number since then.
Part of the fix is to try to rebind on port 0 if an attempt to
bind to a specified port over 32k fails. This is a guess; the
actual ephemeral port range could be 16k+, 32k+, or 48k+, or just
about anything else really, but it seems reasonable in
practice.
There were bugs in the oft-repeated loops to await the cluster
achieving a given state, and it could hang forever if it didn't,
so we add a timeout and a standard function on the test.Cluster
type to handle that. Note that the timeout seems irrelevant; in
every case I've tried, a timeout of 0 is fine because the node
start doesn't complete until the cluster state has changed.
Add a method to test.Command to run a query, expecting a specific
result. Also clean up some of the formatting and generation of
queries, and allow parameterized (badly) queries. This lets us fix
a subtle bug, which is that test cases were depending on assumptions
about shardwidths. Also improve the diagnostic output from some of
these functions so test failures are more comprehensible.
But actually that dependency on shardwidths was ALSO revealing a
genuine underlying bug, which is that a node resize did not correctly
propagate the schema to a new node if there was no data present
on shards that node would own. We now also have a test case that
hits that (or would, if we hadn't fixed it).
Add comments explaining the server options parameters for MustNewCluster
and MustRunCluster.
Also, we implement the ReadFrom and WriteTo behaviors for
InMemTranslateStore, without which some of the cluster resize tests
fail. Props to the comment for specifically stating that they wouldn't
work if that happened, which probably saved me several hours of
debugging. The implementations may not be robust, but
InMemTranslateStore is intended to be used only in lightweight
and transient testing.
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.
For tests, we need to create the grpc listener with port 0 in order to
automatically assign a port. This PR moves the lister creation outside
of the grcpServer itself so that we can access that auto-created port.
This is sort of prototype-ish, but the idea is that we use SetMaxMapCount
from syswrap, which already exists, to let us test edge cases like
"what happens if you only sometimes have mapped data".

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.
set sane defaults. The performance overhead seems to be negligible, and this will allow us to obtain mutex and blocking profiles from running Pilosas by default.
close files after using them if global max is passed.
I originally implemented this without the global count—just always closing files
when done with them, and reopening for new writes. This was crazy slow for that
one test that uses mustSetBits in a big loop. I modified the test to use
importRoaring and everything worked better (though much more slowly).
After adding the global counter, I ran the tests with that one test using
mustSetBits again, and the performance was similar to master. After completing
this PR, I ran the tests with the max limit set to 5—they still passed but were
much slower.
This commit adds support for advertise address by using a new config
option `advertise`, or by defaulting its value to that
specified in `bind`.
Also adds support for listening on 0.0.0.0 by trying to determine
the preferred outbound IP to use for the advertise address.
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.
