When HAVE_MALLOC_SIZE is false, each call to zrealloc causes used_memory
to increase by PREFIX_SIZE more than it should, due to mis-matched
accounting between the original zmalloc (which includes PREFIX size in
its increment) and zrealloc (which misses it from its decrement).
I've also supplied a command-line test to easily demonstrate the
problem. It's not wired into the test framework, because I don't know
TCL so I'm not sure how to automate it.
xadd with id * generates random stream id
xadd & xtrim with approximate maxlen count may
trim stream randomly
xinfo may get random radix-tree-keys/nodes
xpending may get random idletime
xclaim: master and slave may have different
idletime in stream
Processing command from the master while the slave is in busy state is
not correct, however we cannot, also, just reply -BUSY to the
replication stream commands from the master. The correct solution is to
stop processing data from the master, but just accumulate the stream
into the buffers and resume the processing later.
Related to #5297.
Note: this breaks backward compatibility with Redis 4, since now slaves
by default are exact copies of masters and do not try to evict keys
independently.
User: "is there a reason why redis server logs are missing the year in
the "date time"?"
Me: "I guess I did not imagine it would be stable enough to run for
several years".
The slave sends \n keepalive messages to the master while parsing the rdb,
and later sends REPLCONF ACK once a second. rarely, the master recives both
a linefeed char and a REPLCONF in the same read, \n*3\r\n$8\r\nREPLCONF\r\n...
and it tries to trim two chars (\r\n) from the query buffer,
trimming the '*' from *3\r\n$8\r\nREPLCONF\r\n...
then the master tries to process a command starting with '3' and replies to
the slave a bunch of -ERR and one +OK.
although the slave silently ignores these (prints a log message), this corrupts
the replication offset at the slave since the slave increases the replication
offset, and the master did not.
other than the fix in processInlineBuffer, i did several other improvments
while hunting this very rare bug.
- when redis replies with "unknown command" it includes a portion of the
arguments, not just the command name. so it would be easier to understand
what was recived, in my case, on the slave side, it was -ERR, but
the "arguments" were the interesting part (containing info on the error).
- about a year ago i added code in addReplyErrorLength to print the error to
the log in case of a reply to master (since this string isn't actually
trasmitted to the master), now changed that block to print a similar log
message to indicate an error being sent from the master to the slave.
note that the slave is marked as CLIENT_SLAVE only after PSYNC was received,
so this will not cause any harm for REPLCONF, and will only indicate problems
that are gonna corrupt the replication stream anyway.
- two places were c->reply was emptied, and i wanted to reset sentlen
this is a precaution (i did not actually see such a problem), since a
non-zero sentlen will cause corruption to be transmitted on the socket.
