For diskless replication in swapdb mode, considering we already spend replica memory having a backup of current db to restore in case of failure, we can have the following benefits by instead swapping database only in case we succeeded in transferring db from master: - Avoid `LOADING` response during failed and successful synchronization for cases where the replica is already up and running with data. - Faster total time of diskless replication, because now we're moving from Transfer + Flush + Load time to Transfer + Load only. Flushing the tempDb is done asynchronously after swapping. - This could be implemented also for disk replication with similar benefits if consumers are willing to spend the extra memory usage. General notes: - The concept of `backupDb` becomes `tempDb` for clarity. - Async loading mode will only kick in if the replica is syncing from a master that has the same repl-id the one it had before. i.e. the data it's getting belongs to a different time of the same timeline. - New property in INFO: `async_loading` to differentiate from the blocking loading - Slot to Key mapping is now a field of `redisDb` as it's more natural to access it from both server.db and the tempDb that is passed around. - Because this is affecting replicas only, we assume that if they are not readonly and write commands during replication, they are lost after SYNC same way as before, but we're still denying CONFIG SET here anyways to avoid complications. Considerations for review: - We have many cases where server.loading flag is used and even though I tried my best, there may be cases where async_loading should be checked as well and cases where it shouldn't (would require very good understanding of whole code) - Several places that had different behavior depending on the loading flag where actually meant to just handle commands coming from the AOF client differently than ones coming from real clients, changed to check CLIENT_ID_AOF instead. **Additional for Release Notes** - Bugfix - server.dirty was not incremented for any kind of diskless replication, as effect it wouldn't contribute on triggering next database SAVE - New flag for RM_GetContextFlags module API: REDISMODULE_CTX_FLAGS_ASYNC_LOADING - Deprecated RedisModuleEvent_ReplBackup. Starting from Redis 7.0, we don't fire this event. Instead, we have the new RedisModuleEvent_ReplAsyncLoad holding 3 sub-events: STARTED, ABORTED and COMPLETED. - New module flag REDISMODULE_OPTIONS_HANDLE_REPL_ASYNC_LOAD for RedisModule_SetModuleOptions to allow modules to declare they support the diskless replication with async loading (when absent, we fall back to disk-based loading).

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
