A new server.orig_commands table was added to the server structure, this
contains a copy of the commant table unaffected by rename-command
statements in redis.conf.
A new API lookupCommandOrOriginal() was added that checks both tables,
new first, old later, so that rewriteClientCommandVector() and friends
can lookup commands with their new or original name in order to fix the
client->cmd pointer when the argument vector is renamed.
This fixes the segfault of issue #986, but does not fix a wider range of
problems resulting from renaming commands that actually operate on data
and are registered into the AOF file or propagated to slaves... That is
command renaming should be handled with care.
Usually this does not happens since we trim for " \t\r\n", but if there
are other chars that return true with isspace(), we may end with an
empty argv. Better to handle the condition in an explicit way.
This makes programs not checking the return value for NULL much safer
since with this change:
1) It is still possible to iterate the zero-length result without
crashes.
2) sdssplitargs_free will work against NULL and 0 count.
An empty input string also resulted into the function returning NULL
making it harder for the caller to distinguish between error and empty
string without checking the original input string length.
If we have a master in FAIL state that's reachable again, and apparently
no one is going to serve its slots, clear the FAIL flag and let the
cluster continue with its operations again.
This is the unix time at which we set the FAIL flag for the node.
It is only valid if FAIL is set.
The idea is to use it in order to make the cluster more robust, for
instance in order to revert a FAIL state if it is long-standing but
still slots are assigned to this node, that is, no one is going to fix
these slots apparently.
Usually we try to send just 1 ping every second, however when we detect
we are going to have unreliable failure detection because we can't ping
some node in time, send an additional ping.
This should only happen with very large clusters or when the the node
timeout is set to a very low value.
This should improve things in two ways:
1) Prevent timeouts caused by the execution of long commands.
2) Improve detection of real connection errors.
This is mostly effective only on Linux because of the bogus default
keepalive settings. In Linux we have OS-specific calls to set the
keepalive interval to reasonable values.
As stated in the comment this is usually due to a resharding in progress
so the client should be still redirected to the old node that will
handle the redirection elsewhere.
Before a relatively slow popcount() operation was needed every time we
needed to get the number of slots served by a given cluster node.
Now we just need to check an integer that is taken in sync with the
bitmap.
