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.
When sanitizing the stream listpack, we need to count the deleted records too.
otherwise the last line that checks the next pointer fails.
Add test to cover that state in the stream tests.
* Adding current_save_keys_total and current_save_keys_processed info fields.
Present in replication, BGSAVE and AOFRW.
* Changing RM_SendChildCOWInfo() to RM_SendChildHeartbeat(double progress)
* Adding new info field current_fork_perc. Present in Replication, BGSAVE, AOFRW,
and module forks.
This adds basic coverage to IO threads by running the cluster and few selected Redis test suite tests with the IO threads enabled.
Also provides some necessary additional improvements to the test suite:
* Add --config to sentinel/cluster tests for arbitrary configuration.
* Fix --tags whitelisting which was broken.
* Add a `network` tag to some tests that are more network intensive. This is work in progress and more tests should be properly tagged in the future.
- the last COW report wasn't always read from the pipe
(receiveLastChildInfo wasn't used)
- but in fact, there's no reason we won't always try to drain that pipe
so i'm unifying receiveLastChildInfo with receiveChildInfo
- adjust threshold of the COW test when run in accurate mode
- add some prints in case this test fails again
- fix indentation, page size, and PID! in MacOS proc info
p.s. it seems that pri_pages_dirtied is always 0
Add INFO field, rdb_active_cow_size, to report COW of a live fork child while
it's active.
- once in 1024 keys check the time, and if there's more than one second since
the last report send a report to the parent via the pipe.
- refactor the child_info_data struct, it's an implementation detail that
shouldn't be in the server struct, and not used to communicate data between
caller and callee
- remove the magic value from that struct (not sure what it was good for), and
instead add handling of short reads.
- add another value to the structure, cow_type, to indicate if the report is
for the new rdb_active_cow_size field, or it's the last report of a
successful operation
- add new Module API to report the active COW
- add more asserts variants to test.tcl
The test creates keys with various encodings, DUMP them, corrupt the payload
and RESTORES it.
It utilizes the recently added use-exit-on-panic config to distinguish between
asserts and segfaults.
If the restore succeeds, it runs random commands on the key to attempt to
trigger a crash.
It runs in two modes, one with deep sanitation enabled and one without.
In the first one we don't expect any assertions or segfaults, in the second one
we expect assertions, but no segfaults.
We also check for leaks and invalid reads using valgrind, and if we find them
we print the commands that lead to that issue.
Changes in the code (other than the test):
- Replace a few NPD (null pointer deference) flows and division by zero with an
assertion, so that it doesn't fail the test. (since we set the server to use
`exit` rather than `abort` on assertion).
- Fix quite a lot of flows in rdb.c that could have lead to memory leaks in
RESTORE command (since it now responds with an error rather than panic)
- Add a DEBUG flag for SET-SKIP-CHECKSUM-VALIDATION so that the test don't need
to bother with faking a valid checksum
- Remove a pile of code in serverLogObjectDebugInfo which is actually unsafe to
run in the crash report (see comments in the code)
- fix a missing boundary check in lzf_decompress
test suite infra improvements:
- be able to run valgrind checks before the process terminates
- rotate log files when restarting servers
- improve stream rdb encoding test to include more types of stream metadata
- add test to cover various ziplist encoding entries (although it does
look like the stress test above it is able to find some too
- add another test for ziplist encoding for hash with full sanitization
- add similar ziplist encoding tests for list
on ci.redis.io the test fails a lot, reporting that bgsave didn't end.
increaseing the timeout we wait for that bgsave to get aborted.
in addition to that, i also verify that it indeed got aborted by
checking that the save counter wasn't reset.
add another test to verify that a successful bgsave indeed resets the
change counter.
* tests/valgrind: don't use debug restart
DEBUG REATART causes two issues:
1. it uses execve which replaces the original process and valgrind doesn't
have a chance to check for errors, so leaks go unreported.
2. valgrind report invalid calls to close() which we're unable to resolve.
So now the tests use restart_server mechanism in the tests, that terminates
the old server and starts a new one, new PID, but same stdout, stderr.
since the stderr can contain two or more valgrind report, it is not enough
to just check for the absence of leaks, we also need to check for some known
errors, we do both, and fail if we either find an error, or can't find a
report saying there are no leaks.
other changes:
- when killing a server that was already terminated we check for leaks too.
- adding DEBUG LEAK which was used to test it.
- adding --trace-children to valgrind, although no longer needed.
- since the stdout contains two or more runs, we need slightly different way
of checking if the new process is up (explicitly looking for the new PID)
- move the code that handles --wait-server to happen earlier (before
watching the startup message in the log), and serve the restarted server too.
* squashme - CR fixes
This bug was introduced by a recent change in which readQueryFromClient
is using freeClientAsync, and despite the fact that now
freeClientsInAsyncFreeQueue is in beforeSleep, that's not enough since
it's not called during loading in processEventsWhileBlocked.
furthermore, afterSleep was called in that case but beforeSleep wasn't.
This bug also caused slowness sine the level-triggered mode of epoll
kept signaling these connections as readable causing us to keep doing
connRead again and again for ll of these, which keep accumulating.
now both before and after sleep are called, but not all of their actions
are performed during loading, some are only reserved for the main loop.
fixes issue #7215
Testing with Solaris C compiler (SunOS 5.11 11.2 sun4v sparc sun4v)
there were issues compiling due to atomicvar.h and running the
tests also failed because of "tail" usage not conform with Solaris
tail implementation. This commit fixes both the issues.
When the test is executed using the root account, setting the permission
to 222 does not work as expected, as root can read files with 222
permission.
Now we skip the test if root is detected.
This fixes issue #1034 and the duplicated #1040 issue.
Thanks to Jan-Erik Rediger (@badboy on Github) for finding a way to reproduce the issue.
