Because of the introduction of new integer encoding types for ziplists
in the 2.6 tree, the same integer value may have a different encoding in
different versions of the ziplist implementation. This means that the
encoding can NOT be used as a fast path in comparing integers.
The new implementation start reading / writing before blocking with
aeWait(), likely the descriptor can accept writes or has buffered data
inside and we can go faster, otherwise we get an error and wait.
This change has effects on speed but also on correctness: on socket
errors when we perform non blocking connect(2) write is performed ASAP
and the error is returned ASAP before waiting.
So the practical effect is that now a Redis slave is more available if it
can not connect to the master, previously the slave continued to block on
syncWrite() trying to send SYNC, and serving commands very slowly.
We used to reply -ERR ... message ..., now the reply is
instead -MASTERDOWN ... message ... so that it can be distinguished
easily by the other error conditions.
Every matched key in a KEYS call is checked for expiration. When the key
is set to expire, the call to `getExpire` will assert that the key also
exists in the main dictionary. This in turn causes a rehashing step to
be executed. Rehashing a dictionary when there is an iterator active may
result in the iterator emitting duplicate entries, or not emitting some
entries at all. By using a safe iterator, the rehash step is omitted.
An user reported a crash with Redis scripting (see issue #480 on
github), inspection of the kindly provided strack trace showed that
server.lua_caller was probably set to NULL. The stack trace also slowed
that the call to the hook was originating from a point where we just
used to set/get a few global variables in the Lua state.
What was happening is that we did not set the timeout hook selectively
only when the user script was called. Now we set it more selectively,
specifically only in the context of the lua_pcall() call, and make sure
to remove the hook when the call returns. Otherwise the hook can get
called in random contexts every time we do something with the Lua
state.
A previous commit removed -g -rdynamic -ggdb as LDFLAGS, not allowing
Redis to produce a stack trace wth symbol names on crash.
This commit fixes the issue.
This commit reverts most of c575766202773c858be0870c20cd495b722927c3, in
order to use back main stack for signal handling.
The main reason is that otherwise it is completely pointless that we do
a lot of efforts to print the stack trace on crash, and the content of
the stack and registers as well. Using an alternate stack broken this
feature completely.
1) One integer "immediate" encoding that can encode from 0 to 12 in the
encoding byte itself.
2) One 8 bit signed integer encoding that can encode 8 bit signed small
integers in a single byte.
The idea is to exploit all the not used bits we have around in a
backward compatible way.
This fixes compilation on FreeBSD (and possibly other systems) by
not using ucontext_t at all if HAVE_BACKTRACE is not defined.
Also the ifdefs to get the registers are modified to explicitly test for the
operating system in the first level, and the arch in the second level
of nesting.
Two limits are added:
1) Up to SLOWLOG_ENTRY_MAX_ARGV arguments are logged.
2) Up to SLOWLOG_ENTRY_MAX_STRING bytes per argument are logged.
3) slowlog-max-len is set to 128 by default (was 1024).
The number of remaining arguments / bytes is logged in the entry
so that the user can understand better the nature of the logged command.
just fieldobj itself as sentinel of the fact a field object is used or
not, instead of using the filed length, that may be confusing both for
people and for the compiler emitting a warning.
lookupKeyByPattern() was implemented with a trick to speedup the lookup
process allocating two fake Redis obejcts on the stack. However now that
we propagate expires to the slave as DEL operations the lookup of the
key may result into a call to expireIfNeeded() having the stack
allocated object as argument, that may in turn use it to create the
protocol to send to the slave. But since this fake obejcts are
inherently read-only this is a problem.
As a side effect of this fix there are no longer size limits in the
pattern to be used with GET/BY option of SORT.
See https://github.com/antirez/redis/issues/460 for bug details.
This reflects that REDIS_*FLAGS will only be used for compilation of
Redis and not for its dependencies. Similarly, that FINAL_*FLAGS are
composed of other variables and holds the options that are finally
passed to the compiler and linker.
