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.
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.
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.
This adds the following test:
1. cluster comes up (node 1,2,3), status normal
2. Pause node 3
3. Insert keys making sure to filter out the keys that will go to the paused node
4. Wait for status to become degraded
5. Unpause node 3
6. Wait for status to get back to normal
7. Check that keys were replicated to all 3 nodes
running
"make clustertests
DOCKER_COMPOSE=internal/clustertests/docker-compose-replication2.yml"
shows this issue (just remove the change in cluster.go).
Also removed two unrelated lines of code that appear to be doing absolutely nothing.
