This commit changes the findBigKeys() function in redis-cli.c to use the new
SCAN command for iterating the keyspace, rather than RANDOMKEY. Because we
can know when we're done using SCAN, it will exit after exhausting the keyspace.
The computation is just something to take the CPU busy, no need to use a
specific type. Since stdint.h was not included this prevented
compilation on certain systems.
Now that we have a runtime configuration system, it is very important to
be able to log how the Sentinel configuration changes over time because
of API calls.
This error was conceived for the older version of Sentinel that worked
via master redirection and that was not able to get configuration
updates from other Sentinels via the Pub/Sub channel of masters or
slaves.
This reply does not make sense today, every Sentinel should reply with
the best information it has currently. The error will make even more
sense in the future since the plan is to allow Sentinels to update the
configuration of other Sentinels via gossip with a direct chat without
the prerequisite that they have at least a monitored instance in common.
If you launch redis with `redis-server --sentinel` then
in a ps, your output only says "redis-server IP:Port" — this
patch changes the proc title to include [sentinel] or
[cluster] depending on the current server mode:
e.g. "redis-server IP:Port [sentinel]"
"redis-server IP:Port [cluster]"
The default cluster control port is 10,000 ports higher than
the base Redis port. If Redis is started on a too-high port,
Cluster can't start and everything will exit later anyway.
Report the actual port used for the listening attempt instead of
server.port.
Originally, Redis would just listen on server.port.
But, with clustering, Redis uses a Cluster Port too,
so we can't say server.port is always where we are listening.
If you tried to launch Redis with a too-high port number (any
port where Port+10000 > 65535), Redis would refuse to start, but
only print an error saying it can't connect to the Redis port.
This patch fixes much confusions.
If we can't reconfigure a slave in time during failover, go forward as
anyway the slave will be fixed by Sentinels in the future, once they
detect it is misconfigured.
Otherwise a failover in progress may never terminate if for some reason
the slave is uncapable to sync with the master while at the same time
it is not disconnected.
The code tried to obtain the configuration file absolute path after
processing the configuration file. However if config file was a relative
path and a "dir" statement was processed reading the config, the absolute
path obtained was wrong.
With this fix the absolute path is obtained before processing the
configuration while the server is still in the original directory where
it was executed.
Now it logs the file name if it is not accessible. Also there is a
different error for the missing config file case, and for the non
writable file case.
server.unixtime and server.mstime are cached less precise timestamps
that we use every time we don't need an accurate time representation and
a syscall would be too slow for the number of calls we require.
Such an example is the initialization and update process of the last
interaction time with the client, that is used for timeouts.
However rdbLoad() can take some time to load the DB, but at the same
time it did not updated the time during DB loading. This resulted in the
bug described in issue #1535, where in the replication process the slave
loads the DB, creates the redisClient representation of its master, but
the timestamp is so old that the master, under certain conditions, is
sensed as already "timed out".
Thanks to @yoav-steinberg and Redis Labs Inc for the bug report and
analysis.
This commit fixes a serious Lua scripting replication issue, described
by Github issue #1549. The root cause of the problem is that scripts
were put inside the script cache, assuming that slaves and AOF already
contained it, even if the scripts sometimes produced no changes in the
data set, and were not actaully propagated to AOF/slaves.
Example:
eval "if tonumber(KEYS[1]) > 0 then redis.call('incr', 'x') end" 1 0
Then:
evalsha <sha1 step 1 script> 1 0
At this step sha1 of the script is added to the replication script cache
(the script is marked as known to the slaves) and EVALSHA command is
transformed to EVAL. However it is not dirty (there is no changes to db),
so it is not propagated to the slaves. Then the script is called again:
evalsha <sha1 step 1 script> 1 1
At this step master checks that the script already exists in the
replication script cache and doesn't transform it to EVAL command. It is
dirty and propagated to the slaves, but they fail to evaluate the script
as they don't have it in the script cache.
The fix is trivial and just uses the new API to force the propagation of
the executed command regardless of the dirty state of the data set.
Thank you to @minus-infinity on Github for finding the issue,
understanding the root cause, and fixing it.
A system similar to the RDB write error handling is used, in which when
we can't write to the AOF file, writes are no longer accepted until we
are able to write again.
For fsync == always we still abort on errors since there is currently no
easy way to avoid replying with success to the user otherwise, and this
would violate the contract with the user of only acknowledging data
already secured on disk.
Avoid to trash a configEpoch for every slot migrated if this node has
already the max configEpoch across the cluster.
Still work to do in this area but this avoids both ending with a very
high configEpoch without any reason and to flood the system with fsyncs.
The actual goal of the function was to get the max configEpoch found in
the cluster, so make it general by removing the assignment of the max
epoch to currentEpoch that is useful only at startup.
Removed a stale conditional preventing the configEpoch from incrementing
after the import in certain conditions. Since the master got a new slot
it should always claim a new configuration.
The node receiving the hash slot needs to have a version that wins over
the other versions in order to force the ownership of the slot.
However the current code is far from perfect since a failover can happen
during the manual resharding. The fix is a work in progress but the
bottom line is that the new version must either be voted as usually,
set by redis-trib manually after it makes sure can't be used by other
nodes, or reserved configEpochs could be used for manual operations (for
example odd versions could be never used by slaves and are always used
by CLUSTER SETSLOT NODE).
During slots migration redis-trib can send a number of SETSLOT commands.
Fsyncing every time is a bit too much in production as verified
empirically.
To make sure configs are fsynced on all nodes after a resharding
redis-trib may send something like CLUSTER CONFSYNC.
In this case fsyncs were not providing too much value since anyway
processes can crash in the middle of the resharding of an hash slot, and
redis-trib should be able to recover from this condition anyway.
If the slot is manually assigned to another node, clear the migrating
status regardless of the fact it was previously assigned to us or not,
as long as we no longer have keys for this slot.
This avoid a race during slots migration that may leave the slot in
migrating status in the source node, since it received an update message
from the destination node that is already claiming the slot.
This way we are sure that redis-trib at the end of the slot migration is
always able to close the slot correctly.
If someone asks for SYNC or PSYNC from redis-cli,
automatically enter slaveMode (as if they ran
redis-cli --slave) and continue printing the replication
stream until either they Ctrl-C or the master gets disconnected.
Currently this is marginally useful, only to make sure two keys are in
the same hash slot when the cluster is stable (no rehashing in
progress).
In the future it is possible that support will be added to run
mutli-keys operations with keys in the same hash slot.
Sometime an osx master with a Linux server over a slow link caused
a strange error where osx called the writable function for
the socket but actually apparently there was no room in the socket
buffer to accept the write: write(2) call returned an EAGAIN error,
that was not checked, so we considered write(2) == 0 always as a connection
reset, which was unfortunate since the bulk transfer has to start again.
Also more errors are logged with the WARNING level in the same code path
now.
When a slave requests masters vote for a manual failover, the
REQUEST_AUTH message is flagged in a special way in order to force the
masters to give the authorization even if the master is not marked as
failing.
The API is one of the bulding blocks of CLUSTER FAILOVER command that
executes a manual failover in Redis Cluster. However exposed as a
command that the user can call directly, it makes much simpler to
upgrade a standalone Redis instance using a slave in a safer way.
The commands works like that:
CLIENT PAUSE <milliesconds>
All the clients that are not slaves and not in MONITOR state are paused
for the specified number of milliesconds. This means that slaves are
normally served in the meantime.
At the end of the specified amount of time all the clients are unblocked
and will continue operations normally. This command has no effects on
the population of the slow log, since clients are not blocked in the
middle of operations but only when there is to process new data.
Note that while the clients are unblocked, still new commands are
accepted and queued in the client buffer, so clients will likely not
block while writing to the server while the pause is active.
Keys expiring in the middle of the execution of Lua scripts are to
create inconsistencies in masters and / or AOF files. See the following
example:
if redis.call("exists",KEYS[1]) == 1
then
redis.call("incr","mycounter")
end
if redis.call("exists",KEYS[1]) == 1
then
return redis.call("incr","mycounter")
end
The script executes two times the same *if key exists then incrementcounter*
logic. However the two executions will work differently in the master and
the slaves, provided some unlucky timing happens.
In the master the first time the key may still exist, while the second time
the key may no longer exist. This will result in the key incremented just one
time. However as a side effect the master will generate a synthetic
`DEL` command in the replication channel in order to force the slaves to
expire the key (given that key expiration is master-driven).
When the same script will run in the slave, the key will no longer be
there, so the script will not increment the key.
The key idea used to implement the expire-at-first-lookup semantics was
provided by Marc Gravell.
server.lua_time_start is expressed in milliseconds. Use mstime_t instead
of long long, and populate it with mstime() instead of ustime()/1000.
Functionally identical but more natural.
In high RPS environments, the default listen backlog is not sufficient, so
giving users the power to configure it is the right approach, especially
since it requires only minor modifications to the code.
The check was placed in a way that conflicted with the continue
statements used by the node hearth beat code later that needs to skip
the current node sometimes. Moved at the start of the function so that's
always executed.
This feature allows slaves to migrate to orphaned masters (masters
without working slaves), as long as a set of conditions are met,
including the fact that the migrating slave needs to be in a
master-slaves ring with at least another slave working.
When we schedule a failover, broadcast a PONG to the slaves.
The other slaves that plan to get elected will do the same too, this way
it is likely that every slave will have a good picture of its own rank.
Note that this is N*N messages where N is the number of slaves for the
failing master, however usually even large clusters have many master
nodes but a limited number of replicas per node, so this is harmless.
Note that when we compute the initial delay, there are probably still
more up to date information to receive from slaves with new offsets, so
the delay is recomputed when new data is available.
Return the number of slaves for the same master having a better
replication offset of the current slave, that is, the slave "rank" used
to pick a delay before the request for election.
Accessing to the 'myself' node, the node representing the currently
running instance, is handy without the need to type
server.cluster->myself every time.
The two fields are used in order to remember the latest known
replication offset and the time we received it from other slave nodes.
This will be used by slaves in order to start the election procedure
with a delay that is proportional to the rank of the slave among the
other slaves for this master, when sorted for replication offset.
Usually this allows the slave with the most updated offset to win the
election and replace the failing master in the cluster.
Incremental flushing in rio.c is only used to avoid huge kernel buffers
synched to slow disks creating big latency spikes, so this fix has no
durability implications, however it is certainly more correct to make
sure that the FILE buffers are flushed to the kernel before calling
fsync on the file descriptor.
Thanks to Li Shao Kai for reporting this issue in the Redis mailing
list.
One of the simple heuristics used by Redis Cluster in order to avoid
losing data in the typical failure modes created by the asynchronous
replication with the slaves (a master is unable, when accepting a
write, to immediately tell if it should be really accepted or refused
because of a configuration change), is to wait some time before to
rejoin the cluster after being partitioned away from the majority of
instances.
A similar condition happens when a master is restarted. It does not know
if it was already failed over, nor if all the clients have already an
updated configuration about the cluster map, so it is possible that
clients will try to write to stale masters that were restarted.
In a similar way this commit changes masters behavior so they wait
2000 milliseconds before accepting writes after a reboot. There is
nothing special about 2 seconds if not to be a value supposedly larger
a few orders of magnitude compared to the cluster bus communication
latencies.
The code was doing checks for slaves that should be done only when the
instance is currently a master. Switching a slave from a master to
another one should just work.
When an instance is potentially set to replicate with another master, it
is conceptually disconnected forever, since we have no old copy of the
dataset for this master in memory.
CLUSTER FORGET is not useful if we can't remove a node from all the
nodes of our cluster because of the Gossip protocol that keeps adding
a given node to nodes where we already tried to remove it.
So now CLUSTER FORGET implements a nodes blacklist that is set and
checked by the Gossip section processing function. This way before a
node is re-added at least 60 seconds must elapse since the FORGET
execution.
This means that redis-trib has some time to remove a node from a whole
cluster. It is possible that in the future it will be uesful to raise
the 60 sec figure to something bigger.
The rejoin delay usually is the node timeout. However if the node
timeout is too small, we set it to 500 milliseconds, that is a value
chosen to be greater than most setups RTT / instances latency figures
so that likely communication with other nodes happen before rejoining.
Usually we update the cluster state (to understand if we should accept
queries or reply with an error) only when there is a change in the state
of the nodes. However for the "delayed rejoin" feature to work, that is,
for a master to wait some time before accepting queries again after it
rejoins the majority, we need to periodically update the last time when
the node was partitioned away from the majority.
With this commit if the cluster is down we update the state ten times
per second.
Even without the user messing manually with the file, it is still
possible to have blank lines (just a single "\n" per line) because of
how the nodes.conf update/write process works.
The way the file was generated was unsafe and leaded to nodes.conf file
corruption (zero length file) on server stop/crash during the creation
of the file.
The previous file update method was as simple as open with O_TRUNC
followed by the write call. While the write call was a single one with
the full payload, ensuring no half-written files for POSIX semantics,
stopping the server just after the open call resulted into a zero-length
file (all the nodes information lost!).
A client can enter a special cluster read-only mode using the READONLY
command: if the client read from a slave instance after this command,
for slots that are actually served by the instance's master, the queries
will be processed without redirection, allowing clients to read from
slaves (but without any kind fo read-after-write guarantee).
The READWRITE command can be used in order to exit the readonly state.
The new command allows to change master-specific configurations
at runtime. All the settable parameters can be retrivied via the
SENTINEL MASTER command, so there is no equivalent "GET" command.
The claim about unlinking the instance from the connected hash tables
was the opposite of the reality. Also the current actual behavior is
safer in most cases, so it is better to manually unlink when needed.
The new function is used when we want to normalize an IP address without
performing a DNS lookup if the string to resolve is not a valid IP.
This is useful every time only IPs are valid inputs or when we want to
skip DNS resolution that is slow during runtime operations if we are
required to block.
Masters not understanding REPLCONF ACK will reply with errors to our
requests causing a number of possible issues.
This commit detects a global replication offest set to -1 at the end of
the replication, and marks the client representing the master with the
REDIS_PRE_PSYNC flag.
Note that this flag was called REDIS_PRE_PSYNC_SLAVE but now it is just
REDIS_PRE_PSYNC as it is used for both slaves and masters starting with
this commit.
This commit fixes issue #1488.
Now the socket is closed if anetNonBlock() fails, and in general the
code structure makes it harder to introduce this kind of bugs in the
future.
Reference: pull request #1059.
There were two problems with the implementation.
1) "save" was not correctly processed when no save point was configured,
as reported in issue #1416.
2) The way the code checked if an option existed in the "processed"
dictionary was wrong, as we add the element with as a key associated
with a NULL value, so dictFetchValue() can't be used to check for
existance, but dictFind() must be used, that returns NULL only if the
entry does not exist at all.
Currently replication offsets could be used into a limited way in order
to understand, out of a set of slaves, what is the one with the most
updated data. For example this comparison is possible of N slaves
were replicating all with the same master.
However the replication offset was not transferred from master to slaves
(that are later promoted as masters) in any way, so for instance if
there were three instances A, B, C, with A master and B and C
replication from A, the following could happen:
C disconnects from A.
B is turned into master.
A is switched to master of B.
B receives some write.
In this context there was no way to compare the offset of A and C,
because B would use its own local master replication offset as
replication offset to initialize the replication with A.
With this commit what happens is that when B is turned into master it
inherits the replication offset from A, making A and C comparable.
In the above case assuming no inconsistencies are created during the
disconnection and failover process, A will show to have a replication
offset greater than C.
Note that this does not mean offsets are always comparable to understand
what is, in a set of instances, since in more complex examples the
replica with the higher replication offset could be partitioned away
when picking the instance to elect as new master. However this in
general improves the ability of a system to try to pick a good replica
to promote to master.
When the configured node timeout is very small, the data validity time
(maximum data age for a slave to try a failover) is too little (ten
times the configured node timeout) when the replication link with the
master is mostly idle. In this case we'll receive some data from the
master only every server.repl_ping_slave_period to refresh the last
interaction with the master.
This commit adds to the max data validity time the slave ping period to
avoid this problem of slaves sensing too old data without a good reason.
However this max data validity time is likely a setting that should be
configurable by the Redis Cluster user in a way completely independent
from the node timeout.
This commit makes it simple to start an handshake with a specific node
address, and uses this in order to detect a node IP change and start a
new handshake in order to fix the IP if possible.
As specified in the Redis Cluster specification, when a node can reach
the majority again after a period in which it was partitioend away with
the minorty of masters, wait some time before accepting queries, to
provide a reasonable amount of time for other nodes to upgrade its
configuration.
This lowers the probabilities of both a client and a master with not
updated configuration to rejoin the cluster at the same time, with a
stale master accepting writes.
With this commit options not explicitly rewritten by CONFIG REWRITE are
not touched at all. These include new options that may not have support
for REWRITE, and other special cases like rename-command and include.
The value was otherwise undefined, so next time the node was promoted
again from slave to master, adding a slave to the list of slaves
would likely crash the server or result into undefined behavior.
Later this should be configurable from the command line but at least now
we use something more appropriate for our use case compared to the
redis-rb default timeout.
The bug could be easily triggered by:
SADD foo a b c 1 2 3 4 5 6
SDIFF foo foo
When the key was the same in two sets, an unsafe iterator was used to
check existence of elements in the same set we were iterating.
Usually this would just result into a wrong output, however with the
dict.c API misuse protection we have in place, the result was actually
an assertion failed that was triggered by the CI test, while creating
random datasets for the "MASTER and SLAVE consistency" test.
When a slave was disconnected from its master the replication offset was
reported as -1. Now it is reported as the replication offset of the
previous master, so that failover can be performed using this value in
order to try to select a slave with more processed data from a set of
slaves of the old master.
The previous fix for false positive timeout detected by master was not
complete. There is another blocking stage while loading data for the
first synchronization with the master, that is, flushing away the
current data from the DB memory.
This commit uses the newly introduced dict.c callback in order to make
some incremental work (to send "\n" heartbeats to the master) while
flushing the old data from memory.
It is hard to write a regression test for this issue unfortunately. More
support for debugging in the Redis core would be needed in terms of
functionalities to simulate a slow DB loading / deletion.
Redis hash table implementation has many non-blocking features like
incremental rehashing, however while deleting a large hash table there
was no way to have a callback called to do some incremental work.
This commit adds this support, as an optiona callback argument to
dictEmpty() that is currently called at a fixed interval (one time every
65k deletions).
Starting with Redis 2.8 masters are able to detect timed out slaves,
while before 2.8 only slaves were able to detect a timed out master.
Now that timeout detection is bi-directional the following problem
happens as described "in the field" by issue #1449:
1) Master and slave setup with big dataset.
2) Slave performs the first synchronization, or a full sync
after a failed partial resync.
3) Master sends the RDB payload to the slave.
4) Slave loads this payload.
5) Master detects the slave as timed out since does not receive back the
REPLCONF ACK acknowledges.
Here the problem is that the master has no way to know how much the
slave will take to load the RDB file in memory. The obvious solution is
to use a greater replication timeout setting, but this is a shame since
for the 0.1% of operation time we are forced to use a timeout that is
not what is suited for 99.9% of operation time.
This commit tries to fix this problem with a solution that is a bit of
an hack, but that modifies little of the replication internals, in order
to be back ported to 2.8 safely.
During the RDB loading time, we send the master newlines to avoid
being sensed as timed out. This is the same that the master already does
while saving the RDB file to still signal its presence to the slave.
The single newline is used because:
1) It can't desync the protocol, as it is only transmitted all or
nothing.
2) It can be safely sent while we don't have a client structure for the
master or in similar situations just with write(2).
The way the role change was recoded was not sane and too much
convoluted, causing the role information to be not always updated.
This commit fixes issue #1445.
When there is a master address switch, the reported role must be set to
master so that we have a chance to re-sample the INFO output to check if
the new address is reporting the right role.
Otherwise if the role was wrong, it will be sensed as wrong even after
the address switch, and for enough time according to the role change
time, for Sentinel consider the master SDOWN.
This fixes isue #1446, that describes the effects of this bug in
practice.
During the refactoring of blocking operations, commit
82b672f633, a bug was introduced where
a milliseconds time is compared to a seconds time, so all the clients
always appear to timeout if timeout is set to non-zero value.
Thanks to Jonathan Leibiusky for finding the bug and helping verifying
the cause and fix.
Sentinels are now desynchronized in a better way changing the time
handler frequency between 10 and 20 HZ. This way on average a
desynchronization of 25 milliesconds is produced that should be larger
enough compared to network latency, avoiding most split-brain condition
during the vote.
Now that the clocks are desynchronized, to have larger random delays when
performing operations can be easily achieved in the following way.
Take as example the function that starts the failover, that is
called with a frequency between 10 and 20 HZ and will start the
failover every time there are the conditions. By just adding as an
additional condition something like rand()%4 == 0, we can amplify the
desynchronization between Sentinel instances easily.
See issue #1419.
The result of this one-char bug was pretty serious, if the new master
had the same port of the previous master, but just a different IP
address, non-leader Sentinels would not be able to recognize the
configuration change.
This commit fixes issue #1394.
Many thanks to @shanemadden that reported the bug and helped
investigating it.
At the end of the file, CONFIG REWRITE adds a comment line that:
# Generated by CONFIG REWRITE
Followed by the additional config options required. However this was
added again and again at every rewrite in praticular conditions (when a
given set of options change in a given time during the time).
Now if it was alrady encountered, it is not added a second time.
This is especially important for Sentinel that rewrites the config at
every state change.
Some are just to know if the master is down, and in this case the runid
in the request is set to "*", others are actually in order to seek for a
vote and get elected. In the latter case the runid is set to the runid
of the instance seeking for the vote.
Also the sentinel configuration rewriting was modified in order to
account for failover in progress, where we need to provide the promoted
slave address as master address, and the old master address as one of
the slaves address.
We'll use CONFIG REWRITE (internally) in order to store the new
configuration of a Sentinel after the internal state changes. In order
to do so, we need configuration options (that usually the user will not
touch at all) about config epoch of the master, Sentinels and Slaves
known for this master, and so forth.
The time Sentinel waits since the slave is detected to be configured to
the wrong master, before reconfiguring it, is now the failover_timeout
time as this makes more sense in order to give the Sentinel performing
the failover enoung time to reconfigure the slaves slowly (if required
by the configuration).
Also we now PUBLISH more frequently the new configuraiton as this allows
to switch the reapprearing master back to slave faster.
Also defaulf failover timeout changed to 3 minutes as the failover is a
fairly fast procedure most of the times, unless there are a very big
number of slaves and the user picked to configure them sequentially (in
that case the user should change the failover timeout accordingly).
Once we switched configuration during a failover, we should advertise
the new address.
This was a serious race condition as the Sentinel performing the
failover for a moment advertised the old address with the new
configuration epoch: once trasmitted to the other Sentinels the broken
configuration would remain there forever, until the next failover
(because a greater configuration epoch is required to overwrite an older
one).
Now Sentinel believe the current configuration is always the winner and
should be applied by Sentinels instead of trying to adapt our view of
the cluster based on what we observe.
So the only way to modify what a Sentinel believe to be the truth is to
win an election and advertise the new configuration via Pub / Sub with a
greater configuration epoch.
Changes to leadership handling.
Now the leader gets selected by every Sentinel, for a specified epoch,
when the SENTINEL is-master-down-by-addr is sent.
This command now includes the runid and the currentEpoch of the instance
seeking for a vote. The Sentinel only votes a single time in a given
epoch.
Still a work in progress, does not even compile at this stage.
Sentinel state now includes the idea of current epoch and config epoch.
In the Hello message, that is now published both on masters and slaves,
a Sentinel no longer just advertises itself but also broadcasts its
current view of the configuration: the master name / ip / port and its
current epoch.
Sentinels receiving such information switch to the new master if the
configuration epoch received is newer and the ip / port of the master
are indeed different compared to the previos ones.
Now there is a function that handles the update of the local slot
configuration every time we have some new info about a node and its set
of served slots and configEpoch.
Moreoever the UPDATE packets are now processed when received (it was a
work in progress in the previous commit).
The commit also introduces detection of nodes publishing not updated
configuration. More work in progress to send an UPDATE packet to inform
of the config change.
AUTH and SCRIPT KILL were sent without incrementing the pending commands
counter. Clearly this needs some kind of wrapper doing it for the caller
in order to be less bug prone.
This change makes Sentinel less fragile about a number of failure modes.
This commit also fixes a different bug as a side effect, SLAVEOF command
was sent multiple times without incrementing the pending commands count.
The previous implementation of SCAN parsed the cursor in the generic
function implementing SCAN, SSCAN, HSCAN and ZSCAN.
The actual higher-level command implementation only checked for empty
keys and return ASAP in that case. The result was that inverting the
arguments of, for instance, SSCAN for example and write:
SSCAN 0 key
Instead of
SSCAN key 0
Resulted into no error, since 0 is a non-existing key name very likely.
Just the iterator returned no elements at all.
In order to fix this issue the code was refactored to extract the
function to parse the cursor and return the error. Every higher level
command implementation now parses the cursor and later checks if the key
exist or not.
The previous implementation assumed that the first call always happens
with cursor set to 0, this may not be the case, and we want to return 0
anyway otherwise the (broken) client code will loop forever.
The new implementation is capable of iterating the keyspace but also
sets, hashes, and sorted sets, and can be used to implement SSCAN, ZSCAN
and HSCAN.
All the internal state of cluster involving time is now using mstime_t
and mstime() in order to use milliseconds resolution.
Also the clusterCron() function is called with a 10 hz frequency instead
of 1 hz.
The cluster node_timeout must be also configured in milliseconds by the
user in redis.conf.
When a slave requests our vote, the configEpoch he claims for its master
and the set of served slots must be greater or equal to the configEpoch
of the nodes serving these slots in the current configuraiton of the
master granting its vote.
In other terms, masters don't vote for slaves having a stale
configuration for the slots they want to serve.
Sometimes when we resurrect a cached master after a successful partial
resynchronization attempt, there is pending data in the output buffers
of the client structure representing the master (likely REPLCONF ACK
commands).
If we don't reinstall the write handler, it will never be installed
again by addReply*() family functions as they'll assume that if there is
already data pending, the write handler is already installed.
This bug caused some slaves after a successful partial sync to never
send REPLCONF ACK, and continuously being detected as timing out by the
master, with a disconnection / reconnection loop.

Since we started sending REPLCONF ACK from slaves to masters, the
lastinteraction field of the client structure is always refreshed as
soon as there is room in the socket output buffer, so masters in timeout
are detected with too much delay (the socket buffer takes a lot of time
to be filled by small REPLCONF ACK <number> entries).
This commit only counts data received as interactions with a master,
solving the issue.

There was a bug that over-esteemed the amount of backlog available,
however this could only happen when a slave was asking for an offset
that was in the "future" compared to the master replication backlog.
Now this case is handled well and logged as an incident in the master
log file.

The new API is able to remember operations to perform before returning
to the event loop, such as checking if there is the failover quorum for
a slave, save and fsync the configuraiton file, and so forth.
Because this operations are performed before returning on the event
loop we are sure that messages that are sent in the same event loop run
will be delivered *after* the configuration is already saved, that is a
requirement sometimes. For instance we want to publish a new epoch only
when it is already stored in nodes.conf in order to avoid returning back
in the logical clock when a node is restarted.
This new API provides a big performance advantage compared to saving and
possibly fsyncing the configuration file multiple times in the same
event loop run, especially in the case of big clusters with tens or
hundreds of nodes.
The new algorithm does not check replies time as checking for the
currentEpoch in the reply ensures that the reply is about the current
election process.
The old algorithm used a PROMOTED flag and explicitly checks about
slave->master convertions. Wit the new cluster meta-data propagation
algorithm we just look at the configEpoch to check if we need to
reconfigure slots, then:
1) If a node is a master but it reaches zero served slots becuase of
reconfiguration.
2) If a node is a slave but the master reaches zero served slots because
of a reconfiguration.
We switch as a replica of the new slots owner.
We need to:
1) Increment the configEpoch.
2) Save it to disk and fsync the file.
3) Broadcast the PONG with the new configuration.
If other nodes will receive the updated configuration we need to be sure
to restart with this new config in the event of a crash.
