Work in progress towards implementing a reply schema as part of COMMAND DOCS, see #9845
Since ironing the details of the reply schema of each and every command can take a long time, we
would like to merge this PR when the infrastructure is ready, and let this mature in the unstable branch.
Meanwhile the changes of this PR are internal, they are part of the repo, but do not affect the produced build.
### Background
In #9656 we add a lot of information about Redis commands, but we are missing information about the replies
### Motivation
1. Documentation. This is the primary goal.
2. It should be possible, based on the output of COMMAND, to be able to generate client code in typed
languages. In order to do that, we need Redis to tell us, in detail, what each reply looks like.
3. We would like to build a fuzzer that verifies the reply structure (for now we use the existing
testsuite, see the "Testing" section)
### Schema
The idea is to supply some sort of schema for the various replies of each command.
The schema will describe the conceptual structure of the reply (for generated clients), as defined in RESP3.
Note that the reply structure itself may change, depending on the arguments (e.g. `XINFO STREAM`, with
and without the `FULL` modifier)
We decided to use the standard json-schema (see https://json-schema.org/) as the reply-schema.
Example for `BZPOPMIN`:
```
"reply_schema": {
"oneOf": [
{
"description": "Timeout reached and no elements were popped.",
"type": "null"
},
{
"description": "The keyname, popped member, and its score.",
"type": "array",
"minItems": 3,
"maxItems": 3,
"items": [
{
"description": "Keyname",
"type": "string"
},
{
"description": "Member",
"type": "string"
},
{
"description": "Score",
"type": "number"
}
]
}
]
}
```
#### Notes
1. It is ok that some commands' reply structure depends on the arguments and it's the caller's responsibility
to know which is the relevant one. this comes after looking at other request-reply systems like OpenAPI,
where the reply schema can also be oneOf and the caller is responsible to know which schema is the relevant one.
2. The reply schemas will describe RESP3 replies only. even though RESP3 is structured, we want to use reply
schema for documentation (and possibly to create a fuzzer that validates the replies)
3. For documentation, the description field will include an explanation of the scenario in which the reply is sent,
including any relation to arguments. for example, for `ZRANGE`'s two schemas we will need to state that one
is with `WITHSCORES` and the other is without.
4. For documentation, there will be another optional field "notes" in which we will add a short description of
the representation in RESP2, in case it's not trivial (RESP3's `ZRANGE`'s nested array vs. RESP2's flat
array, for example)
Given the above:
1. We can generate the "return" section of all commands in [redis-doc](https://redis.io/commands/)
(given that "description" and "notes" are comprehensive enough)
2. We can generate a client in a strongly typed language (but the return type could be a conceptual
`union` and the caller needs to know which schema is relevant). see the section below for RESP2 support.
3. We can create a fuzzer for RESP3.
### Limitations (because we are using the standard json-schema)
The problem is that Redis' replies are more diverse than what the json format allows. This means that,
when we convert the reply to a json (in order to validate the schema against it), we lose information (see
the "Testing" section below).
The other option would have been to extend the standard json-schema (and json format) to include stuff
like sets, bulk-strings, error-string, etc. but that would mean also extending the schema-validator - and that
seemed like too much work, so we decided to compromise.
Examples:
1. We cannot tell the difference between an "array" and a "set"
2. We cannot tell the difference between simple-string and bulk-string
3. we cannot verify true uniqueness of items in commands like ZRANGE: json-schema doesn't cover the
case of two identical members with different scores (e.g. `[["m1",6],["m1",7]]`) because `uniqueItems`
compares (member,score) tuples and not just the member name.
### Testing
This commit includes some changes inside Redis in order to verify the schemas (existing and future ones)
are indeed correct (i.e. describe the actual response of Redis).
To do that, we added a debugging feature to Redis that causes it to produce a log of all the commands
it executed and their replies.
For that, Redis needs to be compiled with `-DLOG_REQ_RES` and run with
`--reg-res-logfile <file> --client-default-resp 3` (the testsuite already does that if you run it with
`--log-req-res --force-resp3`)
You should run the testsuite with the above args (and `--dont-clean`) in order to make Redis generate
`.reqres` files (same dir as the `stdout` files) which contain request-response pairs.
These files are later on processed by `./utils/req-res-log-validator.py` which does:
1. Goes over req-res files, generated by redis-servers, spawned by the testsuite (see logreqres.c)
2. For each request-response pair, it validates the response against the request's reply_schema
(obtained from the extended COMMAND DOCS)
5. In order to get good coverage of the Redis commands, and all their different replies, we chose to use
the existing redis test suite, rather than attempt to write a fuzzer.
#### Notes about RESP2
1. We will not be able to use the testing tool to verify RESP2 replies (we are ok with that, it's time to
accept RESP3 as the future RESP)
2. Since the majority of the test suite is using RESP2, and we want the server to reply with RESP3
so that we can validate it, we will need to know how to convert the actual reply to the one expected.
- number and boolean are always strings in RESP2 so the conversion is easy
- objects (maps) are always a flat array in RESP2
- others (nested array in RESP3's `ZRANGE` and others) will need some special per-command
handling (so the client will not be totally auto-generated)
Example for ZRANGE:
```
"reply_schema": {
"anyOf": [
{
"description": "A list of member elements",
"type": "array",
"uniqueItems": true,
"items": {
"type": "string"
}
},
{
"description": "Members and their scores. Returned in case `WITHSCORES` was used.",
"notes": "In RESP2 this is returned as a flat array",
"type": "array",
"uniqueItems": true,
"items": {
"type": "array",
"minItems": 2,
"maxItems": 2,
"items": [
{
"description": "Member",
"type": "string"
},
{
"description": "Score",
"type": "number"
}
]
}
}
]
}
```
### Other changes
1. Some tests that behave differently depending on the RESP are now being tested for both RESP,
regardless of the special log-req-res mode ("Pub/Sub PING" for example)
2. Update the history field of CLIENT LIST
3. Added basic tests for commands that were not covered at all by the testsuite
### TODO
- [x] (maybe a different PR) add a "condition" field to anyOf/oneOf schemas that refers to args. e.g.
when `SET` return NULL, the condition is `arguments.get||arguments.condition`, for `OK` the condition
is `!arguments.get`, and for `string` the condition is `arguments.get` - https://github.com/redis/redis/issues/11896
- [x] (maybe a different PR) also run `runtest-cluster` in the req-res logging mode
- [x] add the new tests to GH actions (i.e. compile with `-DLOG_REQ_RES`, run the tests, and run the validator)
- [x] (maybe a different PR) figure out a way to warn about (sub)schemas that are uncovered by the output
of the tests - https://github.com/redis/redis/issues/11897
- [x] (probably a separate PR) add all missing schemas
- [x] check why "SDOWN is triggered by misconfigured instance replying with errors" fails with --log-req-res
- [x] move the response transformers to their own file (run both regular, cluster, and sentinel tests - need to
fight with the tcl including mechanism a bit)
- [x] issue: module API - https://github.com/redis/redis/issues/11898
- [x] (probably a separate PR): improve schemas: add `required` to `object`s - https://github.com/redis/redis/issues/11899

## Move library meta data to be part of the library payload.
Following the discussion on https://github.com/redis/redis/issues/10429 and the intention to add (in the future) library versioning support, we believe that the entire library metadata (like name and engine) should be part of the library payload and not provided by the `FUNCTION LOAD` command. The reasoning behind this is that the programmer who developed the library should be the one who set those values (name, engine, and in the future also version). **It is not the responsibility of the admin who load the library into the database.**
The PR moves all the library metadata (engine and function name) to be part of the library payload. The metadata needs to be provided on the first line of the payload using the shebang format (`#!<engine> name=<name>`), example:
```lua
#!lua name=test
redis.register_function('foo', function() return 1 end)
```
The above script will run on the Lua engine and will create a library called `test`.
## API Changes (compare to 7.0 rc2)
* `FUNCTION LOAD` command was change and now it simply gets the library payload and extract the engine and name from the payload. In addition, the command will now return the function name which can later be used on `FUNCTION DELETE` and `FUNCTION LIST`.
* The description field was completely removed from`FUNCTION LOAD`, and `FUNCTION LIST`
## Breaking Changes (compare to 7.0 rc2)
* Library description was removed (we can re-add it in the future either as part of the shebang line or an additional line).
* Loading an AOF file that was generated by either 7.0 rc1 or 7.0 rc2 will fail because the old command syntax is invalid.
## Notes
* Loading an RDB file that was generated by rc1 / rc2 **is** supported, Redis will automatically add the shebang to the libraries payloads (we can probably delete that code after 7.0.3 or so since there's no need to keep supporting upgrades from an RC build).
Redis lists are stored in quicklist, which is currently a linked list of ziplists.
Ziplists are limited to storing elements no larger than 4GB, so when bigger
items are added they're getting truncated.
This PR changes quicklists so that they're capable of storing large items
in quicklist nodes that are plain string buffers rather than ziplist.
As part of the PR there were few other changes in redis:
1. new DEBUG sub-commands:
- QUICKLIST-PACKED-THRESHOLD - set the threshold of for the node type to
be plan or ziplist. default (1GB)
- QUICKLIST <key> - Shows low level info about the quicklist encoding of <key>
2. rdb format change:
- A new type was added - RDB_TYPE_LIST_QUICKLIST_2 .
- container type (packed / plain) was added to the beginning of the rdb object
(before the actual node list).
3. testing:
- Tests that requires over 100MB will be by default skipped. a new flag was
added to 'runtest' to run the large memory tests (not used by default)

* On `kill_server` make sure we close the default `"client"` connection.
* Don't reconnect when trying to execute the client's `close` command.
* On `restart_server` make sure to remove the (closed) default `"client"` after killing the old server.
## Current state
1. Lua has its own parser that handles parsing `reds.call` replies and translates them
to Lua objects that can be used by the user Lua code. The parser partially handles
resp3 (missing big number, verbatim, attribute, ...)
2. Modules have their own parser that handles parsing `RM_Call` replies and translates
them to RedisModuleCallReply objects. The parser does not support resp3.
In addition, in the future, we want to add Redis Function (#8693) that will probably
support more languages. At some point maintaining so many parsers will stop
scaling (bug fixes and protocol changes will need to be applied on all of them).
We will probably end up with different parsers that support different parts of the
resp protocol (like we already have today with Lua and modules)
## PR Changes
This PR attempt to unified the reply parsing of Lua and modules (and in the future
Redis Function) by introducing a new parser unit (`resp_parser.c`). The new parser
handles parsing the reply and calls different callbacks to allow the users (another
unit that uses the parser, i.e, Lua, modules, or Redis Function) to analyze the reply.
### Lua API Additions
The code that handles reply parsing on `scripting.c` was removed. Instead, it uses
the resp_parser to parse and create a Lua object out of the reply. As mentioned
above the Lua parser did not handle parsing big numbers, verbatim, and attribute.
The new parser can handle those and so Lua also gets it for free.
Those are translated to Lua objects in the following way:
1. Big Number - Lua table `{'big_number':'<str representation for big number>'}`
2. Verbatim - Lua table `{'verbatim_string':{'format':'<verbatim format>', 'string':'<verbatim string value>'}}`
3. Attribute - currently ignored and not expose to the Lua parser, another issue will be open to decide how to expose it.
Tests were added to check resp3 reply parsing on Lua
### Modules API Additions
The reply parsing code on `module.c` was also removed and the new resp_parser is used instead.
In addition, the RedisModuleCallReply was also extracted to a separate unit located on `call_reply.c`
(in the future, this unit will also be used by Redis Function). A nice side effect of unified parsing is
that modules now also support resp3. Resp3 can be enabled by giving `3` as a parameter to the
fmt argument of `RM_Call`. It is also possible to give `0`, which will indicate an auto mode. i.e, Redis
will automatically chose the reply protocol base on the current client set on the RedisModuleCtx
(this mode will mostly be used when the module want to pass the reply to the client as is).
In addition, the following RedisModuleAPI were added to allow analyzing resp3 replies:
* New RedisModuleCallReply types:
* `REDISMODULE_REPLY_MAP`
* `REDISMODULE_REPLY_SET`
* `REDISMODULE_REPLY_BOOL`
* `REDISMODULE_REPLY_DOUBLE`
* `REDISMODULE_REPLY_BIG_NUMBER`
* `REDISMODULE_REPLY_VERBATIM_STRING`
* `REDISMODULE_REPLY_ATTRIBUTE`
* New RedisModuleAPI:
* `RedisModule_CallReplyDouble` - getting double value from resp3 double reply
* `RedisModule_CallReplyBool` - getting boolean value from resp3 boolean reply
* `RedisModule_CallReplyBigNumber` - getting big number value from resp3 big number reply
* `RedisModule_CallReplyVerbatim` - getting format and value from resp3 verbatim reply
* `RedisModule_CallReplySetElement` - getting element from resp3 set reply
* `RedisModule_CallReplyMapElement` - getting key and value from resp3 map reply
* `RedisModule_CallReplyAttribute` - getting a reply attribute
* `RedisModule_CallReplyAttributeElement` - getting key and value from resp3 attribute reply
* New context flags:
* `REDISMODULE_CTX_FLAGS_RESP3` - indicate that the client is using resp3
Tests were added to check the new RedisModuleAPI
### Modules API Changes
* RM_ReplyWithCallReply might return REDISMODULE_ERR if the given CallReply is in resp3
but the client expects resp2. This is not a breaking change because in order to get a resp3
CallReply one needs to specifically specify `3` as a parameter to the fmt argument of
`RM_Call` (as mentioned above).
Tests were added to check this change
### More small Additions
* Added `debug set-disable-deny-scripts` that allows to turn on and off the commands no-script
flag protection. This is used by the Lua resp3 tests so it will be possible to run `debug protocol`
and check the resp3 parsing code.

- promote the code in DEBUG PROTOCOL to addReplyBigNum
- DEBUG PROTOCOL ATTRIB skips the attribute when client is RESP2
- networking.c addReply for push and attributes generate assertion when
called on a RESP2 client, anything else would produce a broken
protocol that clients can't handle.
The cluster bus is established over TLS or non-TLS depending on the configuration tls-cluster. The client ports distributed in the cluster and sent to clients are assumed to be TLS or non-TLS also depending on tls-cluster.
The cluster bus is now extended to also contain the non-TLS port of clients in a TLS cluster, when available. The non-TLS port of a cluster node, when available, is sent to clients connected without TLS in responses to CLUSTER SLOTS, CLUSTER NODES, CLUSTER SLAVES and MOVED and ASK redirects, instead of the TLS port.
The user was able to override the client port by defining cluster-announce-port. Now cluster-announce-tls-port is added, so the user can define an alternative announce port for both TLS and non-TLS clients.
Fixes#8134
When redis responds with tracking-redir-broken push message (RESP3),
it was responding with a broken protocol: an array of 3 elements, but only
pushes 2 elements.
Some bugs in the test make this pass. Read the push reply
will consume an extra reply, because the reply length is 3, but there
are only two elements, so the next reply will be treated as third
element. So the test is corrected too.
Other changes:
* checkPrefixCollisionsOrReply success should return 1 instead of -1,
this bug didn't have any implications.
* improve client tracking tests to validate more of the response it reads.
It was confusing as to why these don't return a map type.
the reason is that order matters, so we need to make sure the client
library knows to respect it.
Added comments in the implementation and tests to cover it.
When a Lua script returns a map to redis (a feature which was added in
redis 6 together with RESP3), it would have returned the value first and
the key second.
If the client was using RESP2, it was getting them out of order, and if
the client was in RESP3, it was getting a map of value => key.
This was happening regardless of the Lua script using redis.setresp(3)
or not.
This also affects a case where the script was returning a map which it got
from from redis by doing something like: redis.setresp(3); return redis.call()
This fix is a breaking change for redis 6.0 users who happened to rely
on the wrong order (either ones that used redis.setresp(3), or ones that
returned a map explicitly).
This commit also includes other two changes in the tests:
1. The test suite now handles RESP3 maps as dicts rather than nested
lists
2. Remove some redundant (duplicate) tests from tracking.tcl
This adds a new `tls-client-cert-file` and `tls-client-key-file`
configuration directives which make it possible to use different
certificates for the TLS-server and TLS-client functions of Redis.
This is an optional directive. If it is not specified the `tls-cert-file`
and `tls-key-file` directives are used for TLS client functions as well.
Also, `utils/gen-test-certs.sh` now creates additional server-only and client-only certs and will skip intensive operations if target files already exist.
when using --baseport to run two tests suite in parallel (different
folders), we need to also make sure the port used by the testsuite to
communicate with it's workers is unique. otherwise the attept to find a
free port connects to the other test suite and messes it.
maybe one day we need to attempt to bind, instead of connect when tring
to find a free port.
Test support for the new map, null and push message types. Map objects are parsed as a list of lists of key value pairs.
for instance: user => john password => 123
will be parsed to the following TCL list:
{{user john} {password 123}}
Also added the following tests:
Redirection still works with RESP3
Able to use a RESP3 client as a redirection client
No duplicate invalidation messages when turning BCAST mode on after normal tracking
Server is able to evacuate enough keys when num of keys surpasses limit by more than defined initial effort
Different clients using different protocols can track the same key
OPTOUT tests
OPTIN tests
Clients can redirect to the same connection
tracking-redir-broken test
HELLO 3 checks
Invalidation messages still work when using RESP3, with and without redirection
Switching to RESP3 doesn't disturb previous tracked keys
Tracking info is correct
Flushall and flushdb produce invalidation messages
These tests achieve 100% line coverage for tracking.c using lcov.
* Introduce a connection abstraction layer for all socket operations and
integrate it across the code base.
* Provide an optional TLS connections implementation based on OpenSSL.
* Pull a newer version of hiredis with TLS support.
* Tests, redis-cli updates for TLS support.
