This makes tests a bit slower, but it is better to test things at a
decent scale instead of using just a few nodes, and for a few tests we
actually need so many nodes.
The test now runs in a self-contained directory.
The general abstractions to run the tests in an environment where
mutliple instances are executed at the same time was extrapolated into
instances.tcl, that will be reused to test Redis Cluster.
This commit sets the failover timeout to 30 seconds instead of the 180
seconds default, and allows to reconfigure multiple slaves at the same
time.
This makes tests less sensible to timing, with the result that there are
less false positives due to normal behaviors that require time to
succeed or to be retried.
However the long term solution is probably some way in order to detect
when a test failed because of timing issues (for example split brain
during leader election) and retry it.
It was verified in practice that this test is able to stress much more
the implementation by introducing errors that were only trivially to
detect with different offsets but impossible to detect starting always
at zero and counting bits the full length of the string.
An unit can abort in the middle for an error. The next unit should not
assume that the instances are in a clean state, and must restart what
was left killed.
Sentinel tests are designed to be dependent on the previous tests in the
same unit, so usually we can't continue with the next test in the same
unit if a previous test failed.
The test was previously performed by removing the master from the
Sentinel monitored masters. The test with the Sentinels crashed is
more similar to real-world partitions / failures.
The area a number of mandatory tests to craete a stable setup for
testing that is not too sensitive to timing issues. All those tests
moved to includes/init-tests, and marked as (init).
It is now possible to kill and restart sentinel or redis instances for
more real-world testing.
The 01 unit tests the capability of Sentinel to update the configuration
of Sentinels rejoining the cluster, however the test is pretty trivial
and more tests should be added.
Some inline test moved into server_is_up procedure.
Also find_available_port was moved into util since it is going
to be used for the Sentinel test as well.
The Redis test uses a server-clients model in order to parallelize the
execution of different tests. However in recent versions of osx not
setting the channel to a binary encoding caused issues even if AFAIK no
binary data is really sent via this channel. However now the channels
are deliberately set to a binary encoding and this solves the issue.
The exact issue was the test not terminating and giving the impression
of running forever, since test clients or servers were unable to
exchange the messages to continue.
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.
When keyspace events are enabled, the overhead is not sever but
noticeable, so this commit introduces the ability to select subclasses
of events in order to avoid to generate events the user is not
interested in.
The events can be selected using redis.conf or CONFIG SET / GET.
UNSUBSCRIBE and PUNSUBSCRIBE commands are designed to mass-unsubscribe
the client respectively all the channels and patters if called without
arguments.
However when these functions are called without arguments, but there are
no channels or patters we are subscribed to, the old behavior was to
don't reply at all.
This behavior is broken, as every command should always reply.
Also it is possible that we are no longer subscribed to a channels but we
are subscribed to patters or the other way around, and the client should
be notified with the correct number of subscriptions.
Also it is not pretty that sometimes we did not receive a reply at all
in a redis-cli session from these commands, blocking redis-cli trying
to read the reply.
This fixes issue #714.
The Redis Slow Log always used to log the slow commands executed inside
a MULTI/EXEC block. However also EXEC was logged at the end, which is
perfectly useless.
Now EXEC is no longer logged and a test was added to test this behavior.
This fixes issue #759.
Due to changes in recent releases of osx leaks utility, the osx leak
detection no longer worked. Now it is fixed in a way that should be
backward compatible.
SDIFF used an algorithm that was O(N) where N is the total number
of elements of all the sets involved in the operation.
The algorithm worked like that:
ALGORITHM 1:
1) For the first set, add all the members to an auxiliary set.
2) For all the other sets, remove all the members of the set from the
auxiliary set.
So it is an O(N) algorithm where N is the total number of elements in
all the sets involved in the diff operation.
Cristobal Viedma suggested to modify the algorithm to the following:
ALGORITHM 2:
1) Iterate all the elements of the first set.
2) For every element, check if the element also exists in all the other
remaining sets.
3) Add the element to the auxiliary set only if it does not exist in any
of the other sets.
The complexity of this algorithm on the worst case is O(N*M) where N is
the size of the first set and M the total number of sets involved in the
operation.
However when there are elements in common, with this algorithm we stop
the computation for a given element as long as we find a duplicated
element into another set.
I (antirez) added an additional step to algorithm 2 to make it faster,
that is to sort the set to subtract from the biggest to the
smallest, so that it is more likely to find a duplicate in a larger sets
that are checked before the smaller ones.
WHAT IS BETTER?
None of course, for instance if the first set is much larger than the
other sets the second algorithm does a lot more work compared to the
first algorithm.
Similarly if the first set is much smaller than the other sets, the
original algorithm will less work.
So this commit makes Redis able to guess the number of operations
required by each algorithm, and select the best at runtime according
to the input received.
However, since the second algorithm has better constant times and can do
less work if there are duplicated elements, an advantage is given to the
second algorithm.
EVALSHA used to crash if the SHA1 was not lowercase (Issue #783).
Fixed using a case insensitive dictionary type for the sha -> script
map used for replication of scripts.
The previous behavior was to return -1 if:
1) Existing key but without an expire set.
2) Non existing key.
Now the second case is handled in a different, and TTL will return -2
if the key does not exist at all.
PTTL follows the same behavior as well.
With COPY now MIGRATE does not remove the key from the source instance.
With REPLACE it uses RESTORE REPLACE on the target host so that even if
the key already eixsts in the target instance it will be overwritten.
The options can be used together.
The REPLACE option deletes an existing key with the same name (if any)
and materializes the new one. The default behavior without RESTORE is to
return an error if a key already exists.
So instead to reply with a generic error like:
-ERR ... wrong kind of value ...
now it replies with:
-WRONGTYPE ... wrong kind of value ...
This makes this particular error easy to check without resorting to
(fragile) pattern matching of the error string (however the error string
used to be consistent already).
Client libraries should return a specific exeption type for this error.
Most of the commit is about fixing unit tests.
When calling SCRIPT KILL currently you can get two errors:
* No script in timeout (busy) state.
* The script already performed a write.
It is useful to be able to distinguish the two errors, but right now both
start with "ERR" prefix, so string matching (that is fragile) must be used.
This commit introduces two different prefixes.
-NOTBUSY and -UNKILLABLE respectively to reply with an error when no
script is busy at the moment, and when the script already executed a
write operation and can not be killed.
