Closes: https://github.com/redis/redis/issues/11678
**Motivation**
During a full sync, when master is delivering RDB to the replica,
incoming write commands are kept in a replication buffer in order to be
sent to the replica once RDB delivery is completed. If RDB delivery
takes a long time, it might create memory pressure on master. Also, once
a replica connection accumulates replication data which is larger than
output buffer limits, master will kill replica connection. This may
cause a replication failure.
The main benefit of the rdb channel replication is streaming incoming
commands in parallel to the RDB delivery. This approach shifts
replication stream buffering to the replica and reduces load on master.
We do this by opening another connection for RDB delivery. The main
channel on replica will be receiving replication stream while rdb
channel is receiving the RDB.
This feature also helps to reduce master's main process CPU load. By
opening a dedicated connection for the RDB transfer, the bgsave process
has access to the new connection and it will stream RDB directly to the
replicas. Before this change, due to TLS connection restriction, the
bgsave process was writing RDB bytes to a pipe and the main process was
forwarding
it to the replica. This is no longer necessary, the main process can
avoid these expensive socket read/write syscalls. It also means RDB
delivery to replica will be faster as it avoids this step.
In summary, replication will be faster and master's performance during
full syncs will improve.
**Implementation steps**
1. When replica connects to the master, it sends 'rdb-channel-repl' as
part of capability exchange to let master to know replica supports rdb
channel.
2. When replica lacks sufficient data for PSYNC, master sends
+RDBCHANNELSYNC reply with replica's client id. As the next step, the
replica opens a new connection (rdb-channel) and configures it against
the master with the appropriate capabilities and requirements. It also
sends given client id back to master over rdbchannel, so that master can
associate these channels. (initial replica connection will be referred
as main-channel) Then, replica requests fullsync using the RDB channel.
3. Prior to forking, master attaches the replica's main channel to the
replication backlog to deliver replication stream starting at the
snapshot end offset.
4. The master main process sends replication stream via the main
channel, while the bgsave process sends the RDB directly to the replica
via the rdb-channel. Replica accumulates replication stream in a local
buffer, while the RDB is being loaded into the memory.
5. Once the replica completes loading the rdb, it drops the rdb channel
and streams the accumulated replication stream into the db. Sync is
completed.
**Some details**
- Currently, rdbchannel replication is supported only if
`repl-diskless-sync` is enabled on master. Otherwise, replication will
happen over a single connection as in before.
- On replica, there is a limit to replication stream buffering. Replica
uses a new config `replica-full-sync-buffer-limit` to limit number of
bytes to accumulate. If it is not set, replica inherits
`client-output-buffer-limit <replica>` hard limit config. If we reach
this limit, replica stops accumulating. This is not a failure scenario
though. Further accumulation will happen on master side. Depending on
the configured limits on master, master may kill the replica connection.
**API changes in INFO output:**
1. New replica state: `send_bulk_and_stream`. Indicates full sync is
still in progress for this replica. It is receiving replication stream
and rdb in parallel.
```
slave0:ip=127.0.0.1,port=5002,state=send_bulk_and_stream,offset=0,lag=0
```
Replica state changes in steps:
- First, replica sends psync and receives +RDBCHANNELSYNC
:`state=wait_bgsave`
- After replica connects with rdbchannel and delivery starts:
`state=send_bulk_and_stream`
- After full sync: `state=online`
2. On replica side, replication stream buffering metrics:
- replica_full_sync_buffer_size: Currently accumulated replication
stream data in bytes.
- replica_full_sync_buffer_peak: Peak number of bytes that this instance
accumulated in the lifetime of the process.
```
replica_full_sync_buffer_size:20485
replica_full_sync_buffer_peak:1048560
```
**API changes in CLIENT LIST**
In `client list` output, rdbchannel clients will have 'C' flag in
addition to 'S' replica flag:
```
id=11 addr=127.0.0.1:39108 laddr=127.0.0.1:5001 fd=14 name= age=5 idle=5 flags=SC db=0 sub=0 psub=0 ssub=0 multi=-1 watch=0 qbuf=0 qbuf-free=0 argv-mem=0 multi-mem=0 rbs=1024 rbp=0 obl=0 oll=0 omem=0 tot-mem=1920 events=r cmd=psync user=default redir=-1 resp=2 lib-name= lib-ver= io-thread=0
```
**Config changes:**
- `replica-full-sync-buffer-limit`: Controls how much replication data
replica can accumulate during rdbchannel replication. If it is not set,
a value of 0 means replica will inherit `client-output-buffer-limit
<replica>` hard limit config to limit accumulated data.
- `repl-rdb-channel` config is added as a hidden config. This is mostly
for testing as we need to support both rdbchannel replication and the
older single connection replication (to keep compatibility with older
versions and rdbchannel replication will not be enabled if
repl-diskless-sync is not enabled). it affects both the master (not to
respond to rdb channel requests), and the replica (not to declare
capability)
**Internal API changes:**
Changes that were introduced to Redis replication:
- New replication capability is added to replconf command: `capa
rdb-channel-repl`. Indicates replica is capable of rdb channel
replication. Replica sends it when it connects to master along with
other capabilities.
- If replica needs fullsync, master replies `+RDBCHANNELSYNC
<client-id>` to the replica's PSYNC request.
- When replica opens rdbchannel connection, as part of replconf command,
it sends `rdb-channel 1` to let master know this is rdb channel. Also,
it sends `main-ch-client-id <client-id>` as part of replconf command so
master can associate channels.
**Testing:**
As rdbchannel replication is enabled by default, we run whole test suite
with it. Though, as we need to support both rdbchannel and single
connection replication, we'll be running some tests twice with
`repl-rdb-channel yes/no` config.

When the tests are run against an external server in this order:
`--single unit/introspection --single unit/moduleapi/blockonbackground
--single integration/redis-cli`
the test would hang when the "ASK redirect test" test attempts to create
a listening socket (it fails, and then redis-cli itself hangs waiting
for a non-responsive socket created by the introspection test).
the reasons are:
1. the blockedbackground test includes util.tcl and resets the
`::last_port_attempted` variable
2. the test in introspection didn't close the listening server, so it's
still alive.
3. find_available_port doesn't properly detect the busy port, and it
thinks that the port is free even though it's busy.
fixing all 3 of these problems, even though fixing just one would be
enough to let the test pass.
When redis-cli received ASK, it used string matching wrong and didn't
handle it.
When we access a slot which is in migrating state, it maybe
return ASK. After redirect to the new node, we need send ASKING
command before retry the command. In this PR after redis-cli receives
ASK, we send a ASKING command before send the origin command
after reconnecting.
Other changes:
* Make redis-cli -u and -c (unix socket and cluster mode) incompatible
with one another.
* When send command fails, we avoid the 2nd reconnect retry and just
print the error info. Users will decide how to do next.
See #9277.
* Add a test faking two redis nodes in TCL to just send ASK and OK in
redis protocol to test ASK behavior.

When test stop 'load handler' by killing the process that generating the load,
some commands that already in the input buffer, still might be processed by the server.
This may cause some instability in tests, that count on that no more commands
processed after we stop the `load handler'
In this commit, new proc 'wait_load_handlers_disconnected' added, to verify that no more
cammands from any 'load handler' prossesed, by checking that the clients who
genreate the load is disconnceted.
Also, replacing check of dbsize with wait_for_ofs_sync before comparing debug digest, as
it would fail in case the last key the workload wrote was an overridden key (not a new one).
Affected tests
Race fix:
- failover command to specific replica works
- Connect multiple replicas at the same time (issue #141), master diskless=$mdl, replica diskless=$sdl
- AOF rewrite during write load: RDB preamble=$rdbpre
Cleanup and speedup:
- Test replication with blocking lists and sorted sets operations
- Test replication with parallel clients writing in different DBs
- Test replication partial resync: $descr (diskless: $mdl, $sdl, reconnect: $reconnect
it seems that commit b087dd1db6 accidentially changed
gen_write_load to not use deferred client, which causes them to be slower and not
generate high load which they should, making some tests less effecitive
* Introduce a connection abstraction layer for all socket operations and
integrate it across the code base.
* Provide an optional TLS connections implementation based on OpenSSL.
* Pull a newer version of hiredis with TLS support.
* Tests, redis-cli updates for TLS support.
