- protocol parsing (processMultibulkBuffer) was limitted to 32big positions in the buffer
readQueryFromClient potential overflow
- rioWriteBulkCount used int, although rioWriteBulkString gave it size_t
- several places in sds.c that used int for string length or index.
- bugfix in RM_SaveAuxField (return was 1 or -1 and not length)
- RM_SaveStringBuffer was limitted to 32bit length
The commit splits the add functions into a set() and add() set of
functions, so that it's possible to set registers in an independent way
just having the index and count.
Related to #3819, otherwise a fix is not possible.
The main change introduced by this commit is pretending that help
arrays are more text than code, thus indenting them at level 0. This
improves readability, and is an old practice when defining arrays of
C strings describing text.
Additionally a few useless return statements are removed, and the HELP
subcommand capitalized when printed to the user.
We have this operation in two places: when caching the master and
when linking a new client after the client creation. By having an API
for this we avoid incurring in errors when modifying one of the two
places forgetting the other. The function is also a good place where to
document why we cache the linked list node.
Related to #4497 and #4210.
The function in its initial form, and after the fixes for the PSYNC2
bugs, required code duplication in multiple spots. This commit modifies
it in order to always compute the script name independently, and to
return the SDS of the SHA of the body: this way it can be used in all
the places, including for SCRIPT LOAD, without duplicating the code to
create the Lua function name. Note that this requires to re-compute the
body SHA1 in the case of EVAL seeing a script for the first time, but
this should not change scripting performance in any way because new
scripts definition is a rare event happening the first time a script is
seen, and the SHA1 computation is anyway not a very slow process against
the typical Redis script and compared to the actua Lua byte compiling of
the body.
Note that the function used to assert() if a duplicated script was
loaded, however actually now two times over three, we want the function
to handle duplicated scripts just fine: this happens in SCRIPT LOAD and
in RDB AUX "lua" loading. Moreover the assert was not defending against
some obvious failure mode, so now the function always tests against
already defined functions at start.
Unfortunately, as outlined by @soloestoy in #4505, "lua" AUX RDB field
loading in case of duplicated script was still broken. This commit fixes
this problem and also a memory leak introduced by the past commit.
Note that now we have a regression test able to duplicate the issue, so
this commit was actually tested against the regression. The original PR
also had a valid fix, but I prefer to hide the details of scripting.c
outside scripting.c, and later "SCRIPT LOAD" should also be able to use
the function luaCreateFunction() instead of redoing the work.
With PSYNC2 to force a full SYNC in tests is hard. With this new DEBUG
subcommand we just need to call it and then CLIENT KILL TYPE master in
the slave.
In the case of slaves loading the RDB from master, or in other similar
cases, the script is already defined, and the function registering the
script should not fail in the assert() call.
It's a bit of black magic without actually tracking it inside rax.c,
however Redis usage of the radix tree for the stream data structure is
quite consistent, so a few magic constants apparently are producing
results that make sense.
Note that streams produced by XADD in previous broken versions having
elements with 4096 bytes or more will be permanently broken and must be
created again from scratch.
Fix#4428Fix#4349
After checking with the community via Twitter (here:
https://twitter.com/antirez/status/915130876861788161) the verdict was to
use ":". However I later realized, after users lamented the fact that
it's hard to copy IDs just with double click, that this was the reason
why I moved to "." in the first instance. Fortunately "-", that was the
other option with most votes, also gets selected with double click on
most terminal applications on Linux and MacOS.
So my reasoning was:
1) We can't retain "." because it's actually confusing to newcomers, it
looks like a floating number, people may be tricked into thinking they
can order IDs numerically as floats.
2) Moving to a double-click-to-select format is much better. People will
work with such IDs for long time when coding / debugging. Why making now
a choice that will impact this for the next years?
The only other viable option was "-", and that's what I did. Thanks.
The core of this change is the implementation of stream trimming, and
the resulting MAXLEN option of XADD as a trivial result of having
trimming functionalities. MAXLEN already works but in order to be more
efficient listpack GC should be implemented, currently marked as a TODO
item inside the comments.
Listpack max size is a tradeoff between space and time. A 2k max entry
puts the memory usage approximately at a similar order of magnitude (5
million entries went from 96 to 120 MB), but the range queries speed
doubled (because there are half entries to scan in the average case).
Lower values could be considered, or maybe this parameter should be
made tunable.
We used to have the master ID stored at the start of the listpack,
however using the key directly makes more sense in order to create a
space efficient representation: anyway the key at the radix tree is very
unlikely to change because of how the stream is implemented. Moreover on
nodes merging, to rewrite the merged listpacks is anyway the most
sensible operation, and we can use the iterator and the append-to-stream
function in order to avoid re-implementing the code needed for merging.
This commit also adds two items at the start of the listpack: the
number of valid items inside the listpack, and the number of items
marked as deleted. This means that there is no need to scan a listpack
in order to understand if it's a good candidate for garbage collection,
if the ration between valid/deleted items triggers the GC.
The approach used is to set a fixed header at the start of every
listpack blob (that contains many entries). The header contains a
"master" ID and fields, that are initially just obtained from the first
entry inserted in the listpack, so that the first enty is always well
compressed. Later every new entry is checked against these fields, and
if it matches, the SAMEFIELD flag is set in the entry so that we know to
just use the master entry flags. The IDs are always delta-encoded
against the first entry. This approach avoids cascading effects in which
entries are encoded depending on the previous entries, in order to avoid
complexity and rewritings of the data when data is removed in the middle
(which is a planned feature).
blockForKeys() was not freeing the allocation holding the ID when the
key was already found busy. Fortunately the unit test checked explicitly
for blocking multiple times for the same key (copying a regression in
the blocking lists tests), so the bug was detected by the Redis test leak
checker.
XADD was suboptimal in the first incarnation of the command, not being
able to accept an ID (very useufl for replication), nor options for
having capped streams.
The keyspace notification for streams was not implemented.
A client may lose a lot of time between invocations of blocking XREAD,
for example because it is processing the messages or for any other
cause. When it returns back, it may provide a low enough message ID that
the server will block to send an unreasonable number of messages in a
single call. For this reason we set a COUNT when the client is blocked
with XREAD calls, even if no COUNT is given. This is arbitrarily set to
1000 because it's enough to avoid slowing down the reception of many
messages, but low enough to avoid to block.
With lists we need to signal only on key creation, but streams can
provide data to clients listening at every new item added.
To make this slightly more efficient we now track different classes of
blocked clients to avoid signaling keys when there is nobody listening.
A typical case is when the stream is used as a time series DB and
accessed only by range with XRANGE.
After a few attempts it looked quite saner to just add the last item ID
at the end of the serialized listpacks, instead of scanning the last
listpack loaded from head to tail just to fetch it. It's a disk space VS
CPU-and-simplicity tradeoff basically.
Related to #4483. As suggested by @soloestoy, we can retrieve the SHA1
from the body. Given that in the new implementation using AUX fields we
ended copying around a lot to create new objects and strings, extremize
such concept and trade CPU for space inside the RDB file.
This is currently needed in order to fix#4483, but this can be
useful in other contexts, so maybe later we may want to remove the
conditionals and always save/load scripts.
Note that we are using the "lua" AUX field here, in order to guarantee
backward compatibility of the RDB file. The unknown AUX fields must be
discarded by past versions of Redis.
Doing the following ended with a broken server.executable:
1. Start Redis with src/redis-server
2. Send CONFIG SET DIR /tmp/
3. Send DEBUG RESTART
At this point we called execve with an argv[0] that is no longer related
to the new path. So after the restart the absolute path of the
executable is recomputed in the wrong way. With this fix we pass the
absolute path already computed as argv[0].
