Previously two string encodings were used for string objects:
1) REDIS_ENCODING_RAW: a string object with obj->ptr pointing to an sds
stirng.
2) REDIS_ENCODING_INT: a string object where the obj->ptr void pointer
is casted to a long.
This commit introduces a experimental new encoding called
REDIS_ENCODING_EMBSTR that implements an object represented by an sds
string that is not modifiable but allocated in the same memory chunk as
the robj structure itself.
The chunk looks like the following:
+--------------+-----------+------------+--------+----+
| robj data... | robj->ptr | sds header | string | \0 |
+--------------+-----+-----+------------+--------+----+
| ^
+-----------------------+
The robj->ptr points to the contiguous sds string data, so the object
can be manipulated with the same functions used to manipulate plan
string objects, however we need just on malloc and one free in order to
allocate or release this kind of objects. Moreover it has better cache
locality.
This new allocation strategy should benefit both the memory usage and
the performances. A performance gain between 60 and 70% was observed
during micro-benchmarks, however there is more work to do to evaluate
the performance impact and the memory usage behavior.
There are systems that when printing +/- infinte with printf-family
functions will not use the usual "inf" "-inf", but different strings.
Handle that explicitly.
Fixes issue #930.
This fixes issue #1194, that contains many details.
However in short, it was possible for ZADD to not accept as score values
that was however possible to obtain with multiple calls to ZINCRBY, like
in the following example:
redis 127.0.0.1:6379> zadd k 2.5e-308 m
(integer) 1
redis 127.0.0.1:6379> zincrby k -2.4e-308 m
"9.9999999999999694e-310"
redis 127.0.0.1:6379> zscore k m
"9.9999999999999694e-310"
redis 127.0.0.1:6379> zadd k 9.9999999999999694e-310 m1
(error) ERR value is not a valid float
The problem was due to strtod() returning ERANGE in the following case
specified by POSIX:
"If the correct value would cause an underflow, a value whose magnitude
is no greater than the smallest normalized positive number in the return
type shall be returned and errno set to [ERANGE].".
Now instead the returned value is accepted even when ERANGE is returned
as long as the return value of the function is not negative or positive
HUGE_VAL or zero.
Note that we only do it when STORE is not used, otherwise we want an
absolutely locale independent and binary safe sorting in order to ensure
AOF / replication consistency.
This is probably an unexpected behavior violating the least surprise
rule, but there is currently no other simple / good alternative.
compareStringObject was not always giving the same result when comparing
two exact strings, but encoded as integers or as sds strings, since it
switched to strcmp() when at least one of the strings were not sds
encoded.
For instance the two strings "123" and "123\x00456", where the first
string was integer encoded, would result into the old implementation of
compareStringObject() to return 0 as if the strings were equal, while
instead the second string is "greater" than the first in a binary
comparison.
The same compasion, but with "123" encoded as sds string, would instead
return a value < 0, as it is correct. It is not impossible that the
above caused some obscure bug, since the comparison was not always
deterministic, and compareStringObject() is used in the implementation
of skiplists, hash tables, and so forth.
At the same time, collateStringObject() was introduced by this commit, so
that can be used by SORT command to return sorted strings usign
collation instead of binary comparison. See next commit.
The function returns an unique identifier for the client, as ip:port for
IPv4 and IPv6 clients, or as path:0 for Unix socket clients.
See the top comment in the function for more info.
IPv6 support is not going to use IPv6 specific options, just it will be
possible to specify all the ipv4 / ipv6 addresses of the interfaces to
bind, otherwise connections will be accepted from all the interfaces in
both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.
This reverts commit 93570e179e.
This has been done by exposing the anetSockName() function anet.c
to be used when the sentinel is publishing its existence to the masters.
This implementation is very unintelligent as it will likely break if used
with IPv6 as the nested colons will break any parsing of the PUBLISH string
by the master.
Any places which I feel might want to be updated to work differently
with IPv6 have been marked with a comment starting "IPV6:".
Currently the only comments address places where an IP address is
combined with a port using the standard : separated form. These may want
to be changed when printing IPv6 addresses to wrap the address in []
such as
[2001:db8::c0:ffee]:6379
instead of
2001:db8::c0:ffee:6379
as the latter format is a technically valid IPv6 address and it is hard
to distinguish the IPv6 address component from the port unless you know
the port is supposed to be there.
In two places buffers have been created with a size of 128 bytes which
could be reduced to INET6_ADDRSTRLEN to still hold a full IP address.
These places have been marked as they are presently big enough to handle
the needs of storing a printable IPv6 address.
Changes the sockaddr_in to a sockaddr_storage. Attempts to convert the
IP address into an AF_INET or AF_INET6 before returning an "Invalid IP
address" error. Handles converting the sockaddr from either AF_INET or
AF_INET6 back into a string for storage in the clusterNode ip field.
Change the sockaddr_in to sockaddr_storage which is capable of storing
both AF_INET and AF_INET6 sockets. Uses the sockaddr_storage ss_family
to correctly return the printable IP address and port.
Function makes the assumption that the buffer is of at least
REDIS_CLUSTER_IPLEN bytes in size.

both AF_INET and AF_INET6 sockets. Uses the sockaddr_storage ss_family

Change the sockaddr_in to sockaddr_storage which is capable of storing

to correctly return the printable IP address and port.
Change the getaddrinfo(3) hints family from AF_INET to AF_UNSPEC to
allow resolution of IPv6 addresses as well as IPv4 addresses. The
function will return the IP address of whichever address family is
preferenced by the operating system. Most current operating systems
will preference AF_INET6 over AF_INET.
Unfortunately without attempting to establish a connection to the
remote address we can't know if the host is capable of using the
returned IP address. It might be desirable to have anetResolve
accept an additional argument specifying the AF_INET/AF_INET6 address
the caller would like to receive. Currently though it does not appear
as though the anetResolve function is ever used within Redis.
Add REDIS_CLUSTER_IPLEN macro to define the size of the clusterNode ip
character array. Additionally use this macro in inet_ntop(3) calls where
the size of the array was being defined manually.
The REDIS_CLUSTER_IPLEN is defined as INET_ADDRSTRLEN which defines the
correct size of a buffer to store an IPv4 address in. The
INET_ADDRSTRLEN macro itself is defined in the <netinet/in.h> header
file and should be portable across the majority of systems.
Using sizeof with an array will only return expected results if the
array is created in the scope of the function where sizeof is used. This
commit changes the inet_ntop calls so that they use the fixed buffer
value as defined in redis.h which is 16.
