Specifically, the key passed to the module aof_rewrite callback is a stack allocated robj. When passing it to RedisModule_EmitAOF (with appropriate "s" fmt string) redis used to panic when trying to inc the ref count of the stack allocated robj. Now support such robjs by coying them to a new heap robj. This doesn't affect performance because using the alternative "c" or "b" format strings also copies the input to a new heap robj.
The scan key module API provides the scan callback with the current
field name and value (if it exists). Those arguments are RedisModuleString*
which means it supposes to point to robj which is encoded as a string.
Using createStringObjectFromLongLong function might return robj that
points to an integer and so break a module that tries for example to
use RedisModule_StringPtrLen on the given field/value.
The PR introduces a fix that uses the createObject function and sdsfromlonglong function.
Using those function promise that the field and value pass to the to the
scan callback will be Strings.
The PR also changes the Scan test module to use RedisModule_StringPtrLen
to catch the issue. without this, the issue is hidden because
RedisModule_ReplyWithString knows to handle integer encoding of the
given robj (RedisModuleString).
The PR also introduces a new test to verify the issue is solved.
By using a "circular BRPOPLPUSH"-like scenario it was
possible the get the same client on db->blocking_keys
twice (See comment in moduleTryServeClientBlockedOnKey)
The fix was actually already implememnted in
moduleTryServeClientBlockedOnKey but it had a bug:
the funxction should return 0 or 1 (not OK or ERR)
Other changes:
1. Added two commands to blockonkeys.c test module (To
reproduce the case described above)
2. Simplify blockonkeys.c in order to make testing easier
3. cast raxSize() to avoid warning with format spec
37a10cef introduced automatic wrapping of MULTI/EXEC for the
alsoPropagate API. However this collides with the built-in mechanism
already present in module.c. To avoid complex changes near Redis 6 GA
this commit introduces the ability to exclude call() MUTLI/EXEC wrapping
for also propagate in order to continue to use the old code paths in
module.c.
The callback approach we took is very efficient, the module can do any
filtering of keys without building any list and cloning strings, it can
also read data from the key's value. but if the user tries to re-open
the key, or any other key, this can cause dict re-hashing (dictFind does
that), and that's very bad to do from inside dictScan.
this commit protects the dict from doing any rehashing during scan, but
also warns the user not to attempt any writes or command calls from
within the callback, for fear of unexpected side effects and crashes.
Because "keymiss" is "special" compared to the rest of
the notifications (Trying not to break existing apps
using the 'A' format for notifications)
Also updated redis.conf and module.c docs
This bug affected RM_StringToLongDouble and HINCRBYFLOAT.
I added tests for both cases.
Main changes:
1. Fixed string2ld to fail if string contains \0 in the middle
2. Use string2ld in getLongDoubleFromObject - No point of
having duplicated code here
The two changes above broke RM_SaveLongDouble/RM_LoadLongDouble
because the long double string was saved with length+1 (An innocent
mistake, but it's actually a bug - The length passed to
RM_SaveLongDouble should not include the last \0).
If a blocked module client times-out (or disconnects, unblocked
by CLIENT command, etc.) we need to call moduleUnblockClient
in order to free memory allocated by the module sub-system
and blocked-client private data
Other changes:
Made blockedonkeys.tcl tests a bit more aggressive in order
to smoke-out potential memory leaks
