After the transcation starts with a MULIT, the previous behavior was to
return an error on problems such as maxmemory limit reached. But still
to execute the transaction with the subset of queued commands on EXEC.
While it is true that the client was able to check for errors
distinguish QUEUED by an error reply, MULTI/EXEC in most client
implementations uses pipelining for speed, so all the commands and EXEC
are sent without caring about replies.
With this change:
1) EXEC fails if at least one command was not queued because of an
error. The EXECABORT error is used.
2) A generic error is always reported on EXEC.
3) The client DISCARDs the MULTI state after a failed EXEC, otherwise
pipelining multiple transactions would be basically impossible:
After a failed EXEC the next transaction would be simply queued as
the tail of the previous transaction.
We use this new bio.c feature in order to stop our I/O threads if there
is a memory test to do on crash. In this case we don't want anything
else than the main thread to run, otherwise the other threads may mess
with the heap and the memory test will report a false positive.
Finally Redis is able to report the amount of memory used by
copy-on-write while saving an RDB or writing an AOF file in background.
Note that this information is currently only logged (at NOTICE level)
and not shown in INFO because this is less trivial (but surely doable
with some minor form of interprocess communication).
The reason we can't capture this information on the parent before we
call wait3() is that the Linux kernel will release the child memory
ASAP, and only retain the minimal state for the process that is useful
to report the child termination to the parent.
The COW size is obtained by summing all the Private_Dirty fields found
in the "smap" file inside the proc filesystem for the process.
All this is Linux specific and is not available on other systems.
Now that we cache connections, a retry attempt makes sure that the
operation don't fail just because there is an existing connection error
on the socket, like the other end closing the connection.
Unfortunately this condition is not detectable using
getsockopt(SO_ERROR), so the only option left is to retry.
We don't retry on timeouts.
The previous behavior was to return -1 if:
1) Existing key but without an expire set.
2) Non existing key.
Now the second case is handled in a different, and TTL will return -2
if the key does not exist at all.
PTTL follows the same behavior as well.
By caching TCP connections used by MIGRATE to chat with other Redis
instances a 5x performance improvement was measured with
redis-benchmark against small keys.
This can dramatically speedup cluster resharding and other processes
where an high load of MIGRATE commands are used.
With COPY now MIGRATE does not remove the key from the source instance.
With REPLACE it uses RESTORE REPLACE on the target host so that even if
the key already eixsts in the target instance it will be overwritten.
The options can be used together.
The REPLACE option deletes an existing key with the same name (if any)
and materializes the new one. The default behavior without RESTORE is to
return an error if a key already exists.
So instead to reply with a generic error like:
-ERR ... wrong kind of value ...
now it replies with:
-WRONGTYPE ... wrong kind of value ...
This makes this particular error easy to check without resorting to
(fragile) pattern matching of the error string (however the error string
used to be consistent already).
Client libraries should return a specific exeption type for this error.
Most of the commit is about fixing unit tests.
After the wait3() syscall we used to do something like that:
if (pid == server.rdb_child_pid) {
backgroundSaveDoneHandler(exitcode,bysignal);
} else {
....
}
So the AOF rewrite was handled in the else branch without actually
checking if the pid really matches. This commit makes the check explicit
and logs at WARNING level if the pid returned by wait3() does not match
neither the RDB or AOF rewrite child.
It failed because of the way jemalloc was compiled (without passing the
right flags to make, but just to configure). Now the same set of flags
are also passed to the make command, fixing the issue.
This fixes issue #744
Because of the short circuit behavior of && inverting the two sides of
the if expression avoids an hash table lookup if the non-EX variant of
SET is called.
Thanks to Weibin Yao (@yaoweibin on github) for spotting this.
(Commit message from @antirez as it was missign in the original commits,
also the patch was modified a bit to still work with 2.4 dumps and to
avoid if expressions that are always true due to checked types range)
This commit changes redis-check-dump to account for new encodings and
for the new MSTIME expire format. It also refactors the test for valid
type into a function.
The code is still compatible with Redis 2.4 generated dumps.
This fixes issue #709.
In some system, notably osx, the 3.5 GB limit was too far and not able
to prevent a crash for out of memory. The 3 GB limit works better and it
is still a lot of memory within a 4 GB theorical limit so it's not going
to bore anyone :-)
This fixes issue #711
When calling SCRIPT KILL currently you can get two errors:
* No script in timeout (busy) state.
* The script already performed a write.
It is useful to be able to distinguish the two errors, but right now both
start with "ERR" prefix, so string matching (that is fragile) must be used.
This commit introduces two different prefixes.
-NOTBUSY and -UNKILLABLE respectively to reply with an error when no
script is busy at the moment, and when the script already executed a
write operation and can not be killed.
Before of this commit it used to be like this:
MULTI
EXEC
... actual commands of the transaction ...
Because after all that is the natural order of things. Transaction
commands are queued and executed *only after* EXEC is called.
However this makes debugging with MONITOR a mess, so the code was
modified to provide a coherent output.
What happens is that MULTI is rendered in the MONITOR output as far as
possible, instead EXEC is propagated only after the transaction is
executed, or even in the case it fails because of WATCH, so in this case
you'll simply see:
MULTI
EXEC
An empty transaction.
If the server is password protected we need to accept AUTH when there is
a server busy (-BUSY) condition, otherwise it will be impossible to send
SHUTDOWN NOSAVE or SCRIPT KILL.
This fixes issue #708.
The code of current implementation:
if (c->pending == 0) clientDone(c);
In clientDone function, the c's memory has been freed, then the loop will continue: while(c->pending). The memory of c has been freed now, so c->pending is invalid (c is an invalid pointer now), and this will cause memory dump in some platforams(eg: Solaris).
So I think the code should be modified as:
if (c->pending == 0)
{
clientDone(c);
break;
}
and this will not lead to while(c->pending).
