since `info commandstats` already shows sub-commands, we should do the same in `info latencystats`.
similarly, the LATENCY HISTOGRAM command now shows sub-commands (with their full name) when:
* asking for all commands
* asking for a specific container command
* asking for a specific sub-command)

# Short description
The Redis extended latency stats track per command latencies and enables:
- exporting the per-command percentile distribution via the `INFO LATENCYSTATS` command.
**( percentile distribution is not mergeable between cluster nodes ).**
- exporting the per-command cumulative latency distributions via the `LATENCY HISTOGRAM` command.
Using the cumulative distribution of latencies we can merge several stats from different cluster nodes
to calculate aggregate metrics .
By default, the extended latency monitoring is enabled since the overhead of keeping track of the
command latency is very small.
If you don't want to track extended latency metrics, you can easily disable it at runtime using the command:
- `CONFIG SET latency-tracking no`
By default, the exported latency percentiles are the p50, p99, and p999.
You can alter them at runtime using the command:
- `CONFIG SET latency-tracking-info-percentiles "0.0 50.0 100.0"`
## Some details:
- The total size per histogram should sit around 40 KiB. We only allocate those 40KiB when a command
was called for the first time.
- With regards to the WRITE overhead As seen below, there is no measurable overhead on the achievable
ops/sec or full latency spectrum on the client. Including also the measured redis-benchmark for unstable
vs this branch.
- We track from 1 nanosecond to 1 second ( everything above 1 second is considered +Inf )
## `INFO LATENCYSTATS` exposition format
- Format: `latency_percentiles_usec_<CMDNAME>:p0=XX,p50....`
## `LATENCY HISTOGRAM [command ...]` exposition format
Return a cumulative distribution of latencies in the format of a histogram for the specified command names.
The histogram is composed of a map of time buckets:
- Each representing a latency range, between 1 nanosecond and roughly 1 second.
- Each bucket covers twice the previous bucket's range.
- Empty buckets are not printed.
- Everything above 1 sec is considered +Inf.
- At max there will be log2(1000000000)=30 buckets
We reply a map for each command in the format:
`<command name> : { `calls`: <total command calls> , `histogram` : { <bucket 1> : latency , < bucket 2> : latency, ... } }`

Some people complain that QUIT is missing from help/command table.
Not appearing in COMMAND command, command stats, ACL, etc.
and instead, there's a hack in processCommand with a comment that looks outdated.
Note that it is [documented](https://redis.io/commands/quit)
At the same time, HOST: and POST are there in the command table although these are not real commands.
They would appear in the COMMAND command, and even in commandstats.
Other changes:
1. Initialize the static logged_time static var in securityWarningCommand
2. add `no-auth` flag to RESET so it can always be executed.
## Intro
The purpose is to allow having different flags/ACL categories for
subcommands (Example: CONFIG GET is ok-loading but CONFIG SET isn't)
We create a small command table for every command that has subcommands
and each subcommand has its own flags, etc. (same as a "regular" command)
This commit also unites the Redis and the Sentinel command tables
## Affected commands
CONFIG
Used to have "admin ok-loading ok-stale no-script"
Changes:
1. Dropped "ok-loading" in all except GET (this doesn't change behavior since
there were checks in the code doing that)
XINFO
Used to have "read-only random"
Changes:
1. Dropped "random" in all except CONSUMERS
XGROUP
Used to have "write use-memory"
Changes:
1. Dropped "use-memory" in all except CREATE and CREATECONSUMER
COMMAND
No changes.
MEMORY
Used to have "random read-only"
Changes:
1. Dropped "random" in PURGE and USAGE
ACL
Used to have "admin no-script ok-loading ok-stale"
Changes:
1. Dropped "admin" in WHOAMI, GENPASS, and CAT
LATENCY
No changes.
MODULE
No changes.
SLOWLOG
Used to have "admin random ok-loading ok-stale"
Changes:
1. Dropped "random" in RESET
OBJECT
Used to have "read-only random"
Changes:
1. Dropped "random" in ENCODING and REFCOUNT
SCRIPT
Used to have "may-replicate no-script"
Changes:
1. Dropped "may-replicate" in all except FLUSH and LOAD
CLIENT
Used to have "admin no-script random ok-loading ok-stale"
Changes:
1. Dropped "random" in all except INFO and LIST
2. Dropped "admin" in ID, TRACKING, CACHING, GETREDIR, INFO, SETNAME, GETNAME, and REPLY
STRALGO
No changes.
PUBSUB
No changes.
CLUSTER
Changes:
1. Dropped "admin in countkeysinslots, getkeysinslot, info, nodes, keyslot, myid, and slots
SENTINEL
No changes.
(note that DEBUG also fits, but we decided not to convert it since it's for
debugging and anyway undocumented)
## New sub-command
This commit adds another element to the per-command output of COMMAND,
describing the list of subcommands, if any (in the same structure as "regular" commands)
Also, it adds a new subcommand:
```
COMMAND LIST [FILTERBY (MODULE <module-name>|ACLCAT <cat>|PATTERN <pattern>)]
```
which returns a set of all commands (unless filters), but excluding subcommands.
## Module API
A new module API, RM_CreateSubcommand, was added, in order to allow
module writer to define subcommands
## ACL changes:
1. Now, that each subcommand is actually a command, each has its own ACL id.
2. The old mechanism of allowed_subcommands is redundant
(blocking/allowing a subcommand is the same as blocking/allowing a regular command),
but we had to keep it, to support the widespread usage of allowed_subcommands
to block commands with certain args, that aren't subcommands (e.g. "-select +select|0").
3. I have renamed allowed_subcommands to allowed_firstargs to emphasize the difference.
4. Because subcommands are commands in ACL too, you can now use "-" to block subcommands
(e.g. "+client -client|kill"), which wasn't possible in the past.
5. It is also possible to use the allowed_firstargs mechanism with subcommand.
For example: `+config -config|set +config|set|loglevel` will block all CONFIG SET except
for setting the log level.
6. All of the ACL changes above required some amount of refactoring.
## Misc
1. There are two approaches: Either each subcommand has its own function or all
subcommands use the same function, determining what to do according to argv[0].
For now, I took the former approaches only with CONFIG and COMMAND,
while other commands use the latter approach (for smaller blamelog diff).
2. Deleted memoryGetKeys: It is no longer needed because MEMORY USAGE now uses the "range" key spec.
4. Bugfix: GETNAME was missing from CLIENT's help message.
5. Sentinel and Redis now use the same table, with the same function pointer.
Some commands have a different implementation in Sentinel, so we redirect
them (these are ROLE, PUBLISH, and INFO).
6. Command stats now show the stats per subcommand (e.g. instead of stats just
for "config" you will have stats for "config|set", "config|get", etc.)
7. It is now possible to use COMMAND directly on subcommands:
COMMAND INFO CONFIG|GET (The pipeline syntax was inspired from ACL, and
can be used in functions lookupCommandBySds and lookupCommandByCString)
8. STRALGO is now a container command (has "help")
## Breaking changes:
1. Command stats now show the stats per subcommand (see (5) above)
This commit revives the improves the ability to run the test suite against
external servers, instead of launching and managing `redis-server` processes as
part of the test fixture.
This capability existed in the past, using the `--host` and `--port` options.
However, it was quite limited and mostly useful when running a specific tests.
Attempting to run larger chunks of the test suite experienced many issues:
* Many tests depend on being able to start and control `redis-server` themselves,
and there's no clear distinction between external server compatible and other
tests.
* Cluster mode is not supported (resulting with `CROSSSLOT` errors).
This PR cleans up many things and makes it possible to run the entire test suite
against an external server. It also provides more fine grained controls to
handle cases where the external server supports a subset of the Redis commands,
limited number of databases, cluster mode, etc.
The tests directory now contains a `README.md` file that describes how this
works.
This commit also includes additional cleanups and fixes:
* Tests can now be tagged.
* Tag-based selection is now unified across `start_server`, `tags` and `test`.
* More information is provided about skipped or ignored tests.
* Repeated patterns in tests have been extracted to common procedures, both at a
global level and on a per-test file basis.
* Cleaned up some cases where test setup was based on a previous test executing
(a major anti-pattern that repeats itself in many places).
* Cleaned up some cases where test teardown was not part of a test (in the
future we should have dedicated teardown code that executes even when tests
fail).
* Fixed some tests that were flaky running on external servers.
This Commit pushes forward the observability on overall error statistics and command statistics within redis-server:
It extends INFO COMMANDSTATS to have
- failed_calls in - so we can keep track of errors that happen from the command itself, broken by command.
- rejected_calls - so we can keep track of errors that were triggered outside the commmand processing per se
Adds a new section to INFO, named ERRORSTATS that enables keeping track of the different errors that
occur within redis ( within processCommand and call ) based on the reply Error Prefix ( The first word
after the "-", up to the first space ).
This commit also fixes RM_ReplyWithError so that it can be correctly identified as an error reply.
