We can now do: `config set maxmemory 10m repl-backlog-size 5m` ## Basic algorithm to support "transaction like" config sets: 1. Backup all relevant current values (via get). 2. Run "verify" and "set" on everything, if we fail run "restore". 3. Run "apply" on everything (optional optimization: skip functions already run). If we fail run "restore". 4. Return success. ### restore 1. Run set on everything in backup. If we fail log it and continue (this puts us in an undefined state but we decided it's better than the alternative of panicking). This indicates either a bug or some unsupported external state. 2. Run apply on everything in backup (optimization: skip functions already run). If we fail log it (see comment above). 3. Return error. ## Implementation/design changes: * Apply function are idempotent (have no effect if they are run more than once for the same config). * No indication in set functions if we're reading the config or running from the `CONFIG SET` command (removed `update` argument). * Set function should set some config variable and assume an (optional) apply function will use that later to apply. If we know this setting can be safely applied immediately and can always be reverted and doesn't depend on any other configuration we can apply immediately from within the set function (and not store the setting anywhere). This is the case of this `dir` config, for example, which has no apply function. No apply function is need also in the case that setting the variable in the `server` struct is all that needs to be done to make the configuration take effect. Note that the original concept of `update_fn`, which received the old and new values was removed and replaced by the optional apply function. * Apply functions use settings written to the `server` struct and don't receive any inputs. * I take care that for the generic (non-special) configs if there's no change I avoid calling the setter (possible optimization: avoid calling the apply function as well). * Passing the same config parameter more than once to `config set` will fail. You can't do `config set my-setting value1 my-setting value2`. Note that getting `save` in the context of the conf file parsing to work here as before was a pain. The conf file supports an aggregate `save` definition, where each `save` line is added to the server's save params. This is unlike any other line in the config file where each line overwrites any previous configuration. Since we now support passing multiple save params in a single line (see top comments about `save` in https://github.com/redis/redis/pull/9644) we should deprecate the aggregate nature of this config line and perhaps reduce this ugly code in the future. |

Redis Test Suite
The normal execution mode of the test suite involves starting and manipulating
local redis-server
instances, inspecting process state, log files, etc.
The test suite also supports execution against an external server, which is
enabled using the --host
and --port
parameters. When executing against an
external server, tests tagged external:skip
are skipped.
There are additional runtime options that can further adjust the test suite to match different external server configurations:
Option | Impact |
---|---|
--singledb |
Only use database 0, don't assume others are supported. |
--ignore-encoding |
Skip all checks for specific encoding. |
--ignore-digest |
Skip key value digest validations. |
--cluster-mode |
Run in strict Redis Cluster compatibility mode. |
--large-memory |
Enables tests that consume more than 100mb |
Tags
Tags are applied to tests to classify them according to the subsystem they test, but also to indicate compatibility with different run modes and required capabilities.
Tags can be applied in different context levels:
start_server
contexttags
context that bundles several tests together- A single test context.
The following compatibility and capability tags are currently used:
Tag | Indicates |
---|---|
external:skip |
Not compatible with external servers. |
cluster:skip |
Not compatible with --cluster-mode . |
large-memory |
Test that requires more than 100mb |
tls:skip |
Not campatible with --tls . |
needs:repl |
Uses replication and needs to be able to SYNC from server. |
needs:debug |
Uses the DEBUG command or other debugging focused commands (like OBJECT ). |
needs:pfdebug |
Uses the PFDEBUG command. |
needs:config-maxmemory |
Uses CONFIG SET to manipulate memory limit, eviction policies, etc. |
needs:config-resetstat |
Uses CONFIG RESETSTAT to reset statistics. |
needs:reset |
Uses RESET to reset client connections. |
needs:save |
Uses SAVE to create an RDB file. |
When using an external server (--host
and --port
), filtering using the
external:skip
tags is done automatically.
When using --cluster-mode
, filtering using the cluster:skip
tag is done
automatically.
When not using --large-memory
, filtering using the largemem:skip
tag is done
automatically.
In addition, it is possible to specify additional configuration. For example, to
run tests on a server that does not permit SYNC
use:
./runtest --host <host> --port <port> --tags -needs:repl
