Add reply_schema to command json files (internal for now) (#10273) Work in progress towards implementing a reply schema as part of COMMAND DOCS, see #9845 Since ironing the details of the reply schema of each and every command can take a long time, we would like to merge this PR when the infrastructure is ready, and let this mature in the unstable branch. Meanwhile the changes of this PR are internal, they are part of the repo, but do not affect the produced build. ### Background In #9656 we add a lot of information about Redis commands, but we are missing information about the replies ### Motivation 1. Documentation. This is the primary goal. 2. It should be possible, based on the output of COMMAND, to be able to generate client code in typed languages. In order to do that, we need Redis to tell us, in detail, what each reply looks like. 3. We would like to build a fuzzer that verifies the reply structure (for now we use the existing testsuite, see the "Testing" section) ### Schema The idea is to supply some sort of schema for the various replies of each command. The schema will describe the conceptual structure of the reply (for generated clients), as defined in RESP3. Note that the reply structure itself may change, depending on the arguments (e.g. `XINFO STREAM`, with and without the `FULL` modifier) We decided to use the standard json-schema (see https://json-schema.org/) as the reply-schema. Example for `BZPOPMIN`: ``` "reply_schema": { "oneOf": [ { "description": "Timeout reached and no elements were popped.", "type": "null" }, { "description": "The keyname, popped member, and its score.", "type": "array", "minItems": 3, "maxItems": 3, "items": [ { "description": "Keyname", "type": "string" }, { "description": "Member", "type": "string" }, { "description": "Score", "type": "number" } ] } ] } ``` #### Notes 1. It is ok that some commands' reply structure depends on the arguments and it's the caller's responsibility to know which is the relevant one. this comes after looking at other request-reply systems like OpenAPI, where the reply schema can also be oneOf and the caller is responsible to know which schema is the relevant one. 2. The reply schemas will describe RESP3 replies only. even though RESP3 is structured, we want to use reply schema for documentation (and possibly to create a fuzzer that validates the replies) 3. For documentation, the description field will include an explanation of the scenario in which the reply is sent, including any relation to arguments. for example, for `ZRANGE`'s two schemas we will need to state that one is with `WITHSCORES` and the other is without. 4. For documentation, there will be another optional field "notes" in which we will add a short description of the representation in RESP2, in case it's not trivial (RESP3's `ZRANGE`'s nested array vs. RESP2's flat array, for example) Given the above: 1. We can generate the "return" section of all commands in [redis-doc](https://redis.io/commands/) (given that "description" and "notes" are comprehensive enough) 2. We can generate a client in a strongly typed language (but the return type could be a conceptual `union` and the caller needs to know which schema is relevant). see the section below for RESP2 support. 3. We can create a fuzzer for RESP3. ### Limitations (because we are using the standard json-schema) The problem is that Redis' replies are more diverse than what the json format allows. This means that, when we convert the reply to a json (in order to validate the schema against it), we lose information (see the "Testing" section below). The other option would have been to extend the standard json-schema (and json format) to include stuff like sets, bulk-strings, error-string, etc. but that would mean also extending the schema-validator - and that seemed like too much work, so we decided to compromise. Examples: 1. We cannot tell the difference between an "array" and a "set" 2. We cannot tell the difference between simple-string and bulk-string 3. we cannot verify true uniqueness of items in commands like ZRANGE: json-schema doesn't cover the case of two identical members with different scores (e.g. `[["m1",6],["m1",7]]`) because `uniqueItems` compares (member,score) tuples and not just the member name. ### Testing This commit includes some changes inside Redis in order to verify the schemas (existing and future ones) are indeed correct (i.e. describe the actual response of Redis). To do that, we added a debugging feature to Redis that causes it to produce a log of all the commands it executed and their replies. For that, Redis needs to be compiled with `-DLOG_REQ_RES` and run with `--reg-res-logfile <file> --client-default-resp 3` (the testsuite already does that if you run it with `--log-req-res --force-resp3`) You should run the testsuite with the above args (and `--dont-clean`) in order to make Redis generate `.reqres` files (same dir as the `stdout` files) which contain request-response pairs. These files are later on processed by `./utils/req-res-log-validator.py` which does: 1. Goes over req-res files, generated by redis-servers, spawned by the testsuite (see logreqres.c) 2. For each request-response pair, it validates the response against the request's reply_schema (obtained from the extended COMMAND DOCS) 5. In order to get good coverage of the Redis commands, and all their different replies, we chose to use the existing redis test suite, rather than attempt to write a fuzzer. #### Notes about RESP2 1. We will not be able to use the testing tool to verify RESP2 replies (we are ok with that, it's time to accept RESP3 as the future RESP) 2. Since the majority of the test suite is using RESP2, and we want the server to reply with RESP3 so that we can validate it, we will need to know how to convert the actual reply to the one expected. - number and boolean are always strings in RESP2 so the conversion is easy - objects (maps) are always a flat array in RESP2 - others (nested array in RESP3's `ZRANGE` and others) will need some special per-command handling (so the client will not be totally auto-generated) Example for ZRANGE: ``` "reply_schema": { "anyOf": [ { "description": "A list of member elements", "type": "array", "uniqueItems": true, "items": { "type": "string" } }, { "description": "Members and their scores. Returned in case `WITHSCORES` was used.", "notes": "In RESP2 this is returned as a flat array", "type": "array", "uniqueItems": true, "items": { "type": "array", "minItems": 2, "maxItems": 2, "items": [ { "description": "Member", "type": "string" }, { "description": "Score", "type": "number" } ] } } ] } ``` ### Other changes 1. Some tests that behave differently depending on the RESP are now being tested for both RESP, regardless of the special log-req-res mode ("Pub/Sub PING" for example) 2. Update the history field of CLIENT LIST 3. Added basic tests for commands that were not covered at all by the testsuite ### TODO - [x] (maybe a different PR) add a "condition" field to anyOf/oneOf schemas that refers to args. e.g. when `SET` return NULL, the condition is `arguments.get||arguments.condition`, for `OK` the condition is `!arguments.get`, and for `string` the condition is `arguments.get` - https://github.com/redis/redis/issues/11896 - [x] (maybe a different PR) also run `runtest-cluster` in the req-res logging mode - [x] add the new tests to GH actions (i.e. compile with `-DLOG_REQ_RES`, run the tests, and run the validator) - [x] (maybe a different PR) figure out a way to warn about (sub)schemas that are uncovered by the output of the tests - https://github.com/redis/redis/issues/11897 - [x] (probably a separate PR) add all missing schemas - [x] check why "SDOWN is triggered by misconfigured instance replying with errors" fails with --log-req-res - [x] move the response transformers to their own file (run both regular, cluster, and sentinel tests - need to fight with the tcl including mechanism a bit) - [x] issue: module API - https://github.com/redis/redis/issues/11898 - [x] (probably a separate PR): improve schemas: add `required` to `object`s - https://github.com/redis/redis/issues/11899 Co-authored-by: Ozan Tezcan <ozantezcan@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Hanna Fadida <hanna.fadida@redislabs.com> Co-authored-by: Oran Agra <oran@redislabs.com> Co-authored-by: Shaya Potter <shaya@redislabs.com>

Client eviction (#8687) ### Description A mechanism for disconnecting clients when the sum of all connected clients is above a configured limit. This prevents eviction or OOM caused by accumulated used memory between all clients. It's a complimentary mechanism to the `client-output-buffer-limit` mechanism which takes into account not only a single client and not only output buffers but rather all memory used by all clients. #### Design The general design is as following: * We track memory usage of each client, taking into account all memory used by the client (query buffer, output buffer, parsed arguments, etc...). This is kept up to date after reading from the socket, after processing commands and after writing to the socket. * Based on the used memory we sort all clients into buckets. Each bucket contains all clients using up up to x2 memory of the clients in the bucket below it. For example up to 1m clients, up to 2m clients, up to 4m clients, ... * Before processing a command and before sleep we check if we're over the configured limit. If we are we start disconnecting clients from larger buckets downwards until we're under the limit. #### Config `maxmemory-clients` max memory all clients are allowed to consume, above this threshold we disconnect clients. This config can either be set to 0 (meaning no limit), a size in bytes (possibly with MB/GB suffix), or as a percentage of `maxmemory` by using the `%` suffix (e.g. setting it to `10%` would mean 10% of `maxmemory`). #### Important code changes * During the development I encountered yet more situations where our io-threads access global vars. And needed to fix them. I also had to handle keeps the clients sorted into the memory buckets (which are global) while their memory usage changes in the io-thread. To achieve this I decided to simplify how we check if we're in an io-thread and make it much more explicit. I removed the `CLIENT_PENDING_READ` flag used for checking if the client is in an io-thread (it wasn't used for anything else) and just used the global `io_threads_op` variable the same way to check during writes. * I optimized the cleanup of the client from the `clients_pending_read` list on client freeing. We now store a pointer in the `client` struct to this list so we don't need to search in it (`pending_read_list_node`). * Added `evicted_clients` stat to `INFO` command. * Added `CLIENT NO-EVICT ON|OFF` sub command to exclude a specific client from the client eviction mechanism. Added corrosponding 'e' flag in the client info string. * Added `multi-mem` field in the client info string to show how much memory is used up by buffered multi commands. * Client `tot-mem` now accounts for buffered multi-commands, pubsub patterns and channels (partially), tracking prefixes (partially). * CLIENT_CLOSE_ASAP flag is now handled in a new `beforeNextClient()` function so clients will be disconnected between processing different clients and not only before sleep. This new function can be used in the future for work we want to do outside the command processing loop but don't want to wait for all clients to be processed before we get to it. Specifically I wanted to handle output-buffer-limit related closing before we process client eviction in case the two race with each other. * Added a `DEBUG CLIENT-EVICTION` command to print out info about the client eviction buckets. * Each client now holds a pointer to the client eviction memory usage bucket it belongs to and listNode to itself in that bucket for quick removal. * Global `io_threads_op` variable now can contain a `IO_THREADS_OP_IDLE` value indicating no io-threading is currently being executed. * In order to track memory used by each clients in real-time we can't rely on updating these stats in `clientsCron()` alone anymore. So now I call `updateClientMemUsage()` (used to be `clientsCronTrackClientsMemUsage()`) after command processing, after writing data to pubsub clients, after writing the output buffer and after reading from the socket (and maybe other places too). The function is written to be fast. * Clients are evicted if needed (with appropriate log line) in `beforeSleep()` and before processing a command (before performing oom-checks and key-eviction). * All clients memory usage buckets are grouped as follows: * All clients using less than 64k. * 64K..128K * 128K..256K * ... * 2G..4G * All clients using 4g and up. * Added client-eviction.tcl with a bunch of tests for the new mechanism. * Extended maxmemory.tcl to test the interaction between maxmemory and maxmemory-clients settings. * Added an option to flag a numeric configuration variable as a "percent", this means that if we encounter a '%' after the number in the config file (or config set command) we consider it as valid. Such a number is store internally as a negative value. This way an integer value can be interpreted as either a percent (negative) or absolute value (positive). This is useful for example if some numeric configuration can optionally be set to a percentage of something else. Co-authored-by: Oran Agra <oran@redislabs.com>

introduce dynamic client reply buffer size - save memory on idle clients (#9822) Current implementation simple idle client which serves no traffic still use ~17Kb of memory. this is mainly due to a fixed size reply buffer currently set to 16kb. We have encountered some cases in which the server operates in a low memory environments. In such cases a user who wishes to create large connection pools to support potential burst period, will exhaust a large amount of memory to maintain connected Idle clients. Some users may choose to "sacrifice" performance in order to save memory. This commit introduce a dynamic mechanism to shrink and expend the client reply buffer based on periodic observed peak. the algorithm works as follows: 1. each time a client reply buffer has been fully written, the last recorded peak is updated: new peak = MAX( last peak, current written size) 2. during clients cron we check for each client if the last observed peak was: a. matching the current buffer size - in which case we expend (resize) the buffer size by 100% b. less than half the buffer size - in which case we shrink the buffer size by 50% 3. In any case we will **not** resize the buffer in case: a. the current buffer peak is less then the current buffer usable size and higher than 1/2 the current buffer usable size b. the value of (current buffer usable size/2) is less than 1Kib c. the value of (current buffer usable size*2) is larger than 16Kib 4. the peak value is reset to the current buffer position once every **5** seconds. we maintain a new field in the client structure (buf_peak_last_reset_time) which is used to keep track of how long it passed since the last buffer peak reset. ### **Interface changes:** **CIENT LIST** - now contains 2 new extra fields: rbs= < the current size in bytes of the client reply buffer > rbp=< the current value in bytes of the last observed buffer peak position > **INFO STATS** - now contains 2 new statistics: reply_buffer_shrinks = < total number of buffer shrinks performed > reply_buffer_expends = < total number of buffer expends performed > Co-authored-by: Oran Agra <oran@redislabs.com> Co-authored-by: Yoav Steinberg <yoav@redislabs.com>

This prevents eviction or OOM caused by accumulated used memory between all clients. It's a complimentary mechanism to the `client-output-buffer-limit` mechanism which takes into account not only a single client and not only output buffers but rather all memory used by all clients. #### Design The general design is as following: * We track memory usage of each client, taking into account all memory used by the client (query buffer, output buffer, parsed arguments, etc...). This is kept up to date after reading from the socket, after processing commands and after writing to the socket. * Based on the used memory we sort all clients into buckets. Each bucket contains all clients using up up to x2 memory of the clients in the bucket below it. For example up to 1m clients, up to 2m clients, up to 4m clients, ... * Before processing a command and before sleep we check if we're over the configured limit. If we are we start disconnecting clients from larger buckets downwards until we're under the limit. #### Config `maxmemory-clients` max memory all clients are allowed to consume, above this threshold we disconnect clients. This config can either be set to 0 (meaning no limit), a size in bytes (possibly with MB/GB suffix), or as a percentage of `maxmemory` by using the `%` suffix (e.g. setting it to `10%` would mean 10% of `maxmemory`). #### Important code changes * During the development I encountered yet more situations where our io-threads access global vars. And needed to fix them. I also had to handle keeps the clients sorted into the memory buckets (which are global) while their memory usage changes in the io-thread. To achieve this I decided to simplify how we check if we're in an io-thread and make it much more explicit. I removed the `CLIENT_PENDING_READ` flag used for checking if the client is in an io-thread (it wasn't used for anything else) and just used the global `io_threads_op` variable the same way to check during writes. * I optimized the cleanup of the client from the `clients_pending_read` list on client freeing. We now store a pointer in the `client` struct to this list so we don't need to search in it (`pending_read_list_node`). * Added `evicted_clients` stat to `INFO` command. * Added `CLIENT NO-EVICT ON|OFF` sub command to exclude a specific client from the client eviction mechanism. Added corrosponding 'e' flag in the client info string. * Added `multi-mem` field in the client info string to show how much memory is used up by buffered multi commands. * Client `tot-mem` now accounts for buffered multi-commands, pubsub patterns and channels (partially), tracking prefixes (partially). * CLIENT_CLOSE_ASAP flag is now handled in a new `beforeNextClient()` function so clients will be disconnected between processing different clients and not only before sleep. This new function can be used in the future for work we want to do outside the command processing loop but don't want to wait for all clients to be processed before we get to it. Specifically I wanted to handle output-buffer-limit related closing before we process client eviction in case the two race with each other. * Added a `DEBUG CLIENT-EVICTION` command to print out info about the client eviction buckets. * Each client now holds a pointer to the client eviction memory usage bucket it belongs to and listNode to itself in that bucket for quick removal. * Global `io_threads_op` variable now can contain a `IO_THREADS_OP_IDLE` value indicating no io-threading is currently being executed. * In order to track memory used by each clients in real-time we can't rely on updating these stats in `clientsCron()` alone anymore. So now I call `updateClientMemUsage()` (used to be `clientsCronTrackClientsMemUsage()`) after command processing, after writing data to pubsub clients, after writing the output buffer and after reading from the socket (and maybe other places too). The function is written to be fast. * Clients are evicted if needed (with appropriate log line) in `beforeSleep()` and before processing a command (before performing oom-checks and key-eviction). * All clients memory usage buckets are grouped as follows: * All clients using less than 64k. * 64K..128K * 128K..256K * ... * 2G..4G * All clients using 4g and up. * Added client-eviction.tcl with a bunch of tests for the new mechanism. * Extended maxmemory.tcl to test the interaction between maxmemory and maxmemory-clients settings. * Added an option to flag a numeric configuration variable as a "percent", this means that if we encounter a '%' after the number in the config file (or config set command) we consider it as valid. Such a number is store internally as a negative value. This way an integer value can be interpreted as either a percent (negative) or absolute value (positive). This is useful for example if some numeric configuration can optionally be set to a percentage of something else. Co-authored-by: Oran Agra <oran@redislabs.com>

Async IO threads (#758) This PR is 1 of 3 PRs intended to achieve the goal of 1 million requests per second, as detailed by [dan touitou](https://github.com/touitou-dan) in https://github.com/valkey-io/valkey/issues/22. This PR modifies the IO threads to be fully asynchronous, which is a first and necessary step to allow more work offloading and better utilization of the IO threads. ### Current IO threads state: Valkey IO threads were introduced in Redis 6.0 to allow better utilization of multi-core machines. Before this, Redis was single-threaded and could only use one CPU core for network and command processing. The introduction of IO threads helps in offloading the IO operations to multiple threads. **Current IO Threads flow:** 1. Initialization: When Redis starts, it initializes a specified number of IO threads. These threads are in addition to the main thread, each thread starts with an empty list, the main thread will populate that list in each event-loop with pending-read-clients or pending-write-clients. 2. Read Phase: The main thread accepts incoming connections and reads requests from clients. The reading of requests are offloaded to IO threads. The main thread puts the clients ready-to-read in a list and set the global io_threads_op to IO_THREADS_OP_READ, the IO threads pick the clients up, perform the read operation and parse the first incoming command. 3. Command Processing: After reading the requests, command processing is still single-threaded and handled by the main thread. 4. Write Phase: Similar to the read phase, the write phase is also be offloaded to IO threads. The main thread prepares the response in the clients’ output buffer then the main thread puts the client in the list, and sets the global io_threads_op to the IO_THREADS_OP_WRITE. The IO threads then pick the clients up and perform the write operation to send the responses back to clients. 5. Synchronization: The main-thread communicate with the threads on how many jobs left per each thread with atomic counter. The main-thread doesn’t access the clients while being handled by the IO threads. **Issues with current implementation:** * Underutilized Cores: The current implementation of IO-threads leads to the underutilization of CPU cores. * The main thread remains responsible for a significant portion of IO-related tasks that could be offloaded to IO-threads. * When the main-thread is processing client’s commands, the IO threads are idle for a considerable amount of time. * Notably, the main thread's performance during the IO-related tasks is constrained by the speed of the slowest IO-thread. * Limited Offloading: Currently, Since the Main-threads waits synchronously for the IO threads, the Threads perform only read-parse, and write operations, with parsing done only for the first command. If the threads can do work asynchronously we may offload more work to the threads reducing the load from the main-thread. * TLS: Currently, we don't support IO threads with TLS (where offloading IO would be more beneficial) since TLS read/write operations are not thread-safe with the current implementation. ### Suggested change Non-blocking main thread - The main thread and IO threads will operate in parallel to maximize efficiency. The main thread will not be blocked by IO operations. It will continue to process commands independently of the IO thread's activities. **Implementation details** **Inter-thread communication.** * We use a static, lock-free ring buffer of fixed size (2048 jobs) for the main thread to send jobs and for the IO to receive them. If the ring buffer fills up, the main thread will handle the task itself, acting as back pressure (in case IO operations are more expensive than command processing). A static ring buffer is a better candidate than a dynamic job queue as it eliminates the need for allocation/freeing per job. * An IO job will be in the format: ` [void* function-call-back | void *data] `where data is either a client to read/write from and the function-ptr is the function to be called with the data for example readQueryFromClient using this format we can use it later to offload other types of works to the IO threads. * The Ring buffer is one way from the main-thread to the IO thread, Upon read/write event the main thread will send a read/write job then in before sleep it will iterate over the pending read/write clients to checking for each client if the IO threads has already finished handling it. The IO thread signals it has finished handling a client read/write by toggling an atomic flag read_state / write_state on the client struct. **Thread Safety** As suggested in this solution, the IO threads are reading from and writing to the clients' buffers while the main thread may access those clients. We must ensure no race conditions or unsafe access occurs while keeping the Valkey code simple and lock free. Minimal Action in the IO Threads The main change is to limit the IO thread operations to the bare minimum. The IO thread will access only the client's struct and only the necessary fields in this struct. The IO threads will be responsible for the following: * Read Operation: The IO thread will only read and parse a single command. It will not update the server stats, handle read errors, or parsing errors. These tasks will be taken care of by the main thread. * Write Operation: The IO thread will only write the available data. It will not free the client's replies, handle write errors, or update the server statistics. To achieve this without code duplication, the read/write code has been refactored into smaller, independent components: * Functions that perform only the read/parse/write calls. * Functions that handle the read/parse/write results. This refactor accounts for the majority of the modifications in this PR. **Client Struct Safe Access** As we ensure that the IO threads access memory only within the client struct, we need to ensure thread safety only for the client's struct's shared fields. * Query Buffer * Command parsing - The main thread will not try to parse a command from the query buffer when a client is offloaded to the IO thread. * Client's memory checks in client-cron - The main thread will not access the client query buffer if it is offloaded and will handle the querybuf grow/shrink when the client is back. * CLIENT LIST command - The main thread will busy-wait for the IO thread to finish handling the client, falling back to the current behavior where the main thread waits for the IO thread to finish their processing. * Output Buffer * The IO thread will not change the client's bufpos and won't free the client's reply lists. These actions will be done by the main thread on the client's return from the IO thread. * bufpos / block→used: As the main thread may change the bufpos, the reply-block→used, or add/delete blocks to the reply list while the IO thread writes, we add two fields to the client struct: io_last_bufpos and io_last_reply_block. The IO thread will write until the io_last_bufpos, which was set by the main-thread before sending the client to the IO thread. If more data has been added to the cob in between, it will be written in the next write-job. In addition, the main thread will not trim or merge reply blocks while the client is offloaded. * Parsing Fields * Client's cmd, argc, argv, reqtype, etc., are set during parsing. * The main thread will indicate to the IO thread not to parse a cmd if the client is not reset. In this case, the IO thread will only read from the network and won't attempt to parse a new command. * The main thread won't access the c→cmd/c→argv in the CLIENT LIST command as stated before it will busy wait for the IO threads. * Client Flags * c→flags, which may be changed by the main thread in multiple places, won't be accessed by the IO thread. Instead, the main thread will set the c→io_flags with the information necessary for the IO thread to know the client's state. * Client Close * On freeClient, the main thread will busy wait for the IO thread to finish processing the client's read/write before proceeding to free the client. * Client's Memory Limits * The IO thread won't handle the qb/cob limits. In case a client crosses the qb limit, the IO thread will stop reading for it, letting the main thread know that the client crossed the limit. **TLS** TLS is currently not supported with IO threads for the following reasons: 1. Pending reads - If SSL has pending data that has already been read from the socket, there is a risk of not calling the read handler again. To handle this, a list is used to hold the pending clients. With IO threads, multiple threads can access the list concurrently. 2. Event loop modification - Currently, the TLS code registers/unregisters the file descriptor from the event loop depending on the read/write results. With IO threads, multiple threads can modify the event loop struct simultaneously. 3. The same client can be sent to 2 different threads concurrently (https://github.com/redis/redis/issues/12540). Those issues were handled in the current PR: 1. The IO thread only performs the read operation. The main thread will check for pending reads after the client returns from the IO thread and will be the only one to access the pending list. 2. The registering/unregistering of events will be similarly postponed and handled by the main thread only. 3. Each client is being sent to the same dedicated thread (c→id % num_of_threads). **Sending Replies Immediately with IO threads.** Currently, after processing a command, we add the client to the pending_writes_list. Only after processing all the clients do we send all the replies. Since the IO threads are now working asynchronously, we can send the reply immediately after processing the client’s requests, reducing the command latency. However, if we are using AOF=always, we must wait for the AOF buffer to be written, in which case we revert to the current behavior. **IO threads dynamic adjustment** Currently, we use an all-or-nothing approach when activating the IO threads. The current logic is as follows: if the number of pending write clients is greater than twice the number of threads (including the main thread), we enable all threads; otherwise, we enable none. For example, if 8 IO threads are defined, we enable all 8 threads if there are 16 pending clients; else, we enable none. It makes more sense to enable partial activation of the IO threads. If we have 10 pending clients, we will enable 5 threads, and so on. This approach allows for a more granular and efficient allocation of resources based on the current workload. In addition, the user will now be able to change the number of I/O threads at runtime. For example, when decreasing the number of threads from 4 to 2, threads 3 and 4 will be closed after flushing their job queues. **Tests** Currently, we run the io-threads tests with 4 IO threads (https://github.com/valkey-io/valkey/blob/443d80f1686377ad42cbf92d98ecc6d240325ee1/.github/workflows/daily.yml#L353). This means that we will not activate the IO threads unless there are 8 (threads * 2) pending write clients per single loop, which is unlikely to happened in most of tests, meaning the IO threads are not currently being tested. To enforce the main thread to always offload work to the IO threads, regardless of the number of pending events, we add an events-per-io-thread configuration with a default value of 2. When set to 0, this configuration will force the main thread to always offload work to the IO threads. When we offload every single read/write operation to the IO threads, the IO-threads are running with 100% CPU when running multiple tests concurrently some tests fail as a result of larger than expected command latencies. To address this issue, we have to add some after or wait_for calls to some of the tests to ensure they pass with IO threads as well. Signed-off-by: Uri Yagelnik <uriy@amazon.com>

Client eviction (#8687) ### Description A mechanism for disconnecting clients when the sum of all connected clients is above a configured limit. This prevents eviction or OOM caused by accumulated used memory between all clients. It's a complimentary mechanism to the `client-output-buffer-limit` mechanism which takes into account not only a single client and not only output buffers but rather all memory used by all clients. #### Design The general design is as following: * We track memory usage of each client, taking into account all memory used by the client (query buffer, output buffer, parsed arguments, etc...). This is kept up to date after reading from the socket, after processing commands and after writing to the socket. * Based on the used memory we sort all clients into buckets. Each bucket contains all clients using up up to x2 memory of the clients in the bucket below it. For example up to 1m clients, up to 2m clients, up to 4m clients, ... * Before processing a command and before sleep we check if we're over the configured limit. If we are we start disconnecting clients from larger buckets downwards until we're under the limit. #### Config `maxmemory-clients` max memory all clients are allowed to consume, above this threshold we disconnect clients. This config can either be set to 0 (meaning no limit), a size in bytes (possibly with MB/GB suffix), or as a percentage of `maxmemory` by using the `%` suffix (e.g. setting it to `10%` would mean 10% of `maxmemory`). #### Important code changes * During the development I encountered yet more situations where our io-threads access global vars. And needed to fix them. I also had to handle keeps the clients sorted into the memory buckets (which are global) while their memory usage changes in the io-thread. To achieve this I decided to simplify how we check if we're in an io-thread and make it much more explicit. I removed the `CLIENT_PENDING_READ` flag used for checking if the client is in an io-thread (it wasn't used for anything else) and just used the global `io_threads_op` variable the same way to check during writes. * I optimized the cleanup of the client from the `clients_pending_read` list on client freeing. We now store a pointer in the `client` struct to this list so we don't need to search in it (`pending_read_list_node`). * Added `evicted_clients` stat to `INFO` command. * Added `CLIENT NO-EVICT ON|OFF` sub command to exclude a specific client from the client eviction mechanism. Added corrosponding 'e' flag in the client info string. * Added `multi-mem` field in the client info string to show how much memory is used up by buffered multi commands. * Client `tot-mem` now accounts for buffered multi-commands, pubsub patterns and channels (partially), tracking prefixes (partially). * CLIENT_CLOSE_ASAP flag is now handled in a new `beforeNextClient()` function so clients will be disconnected between processing different clients and not only before sleep. This new function can be used in the future for work we want to do outside the command processing loop but don't want to wait for all clients to be processed before we get to it. Specifically I wanted to handle output-buffer-limit related closing before we process client eviction in case the two race with each other. * Added a `DEBUG CLIENT-EVICTION` command to print out info about the client eviction buckets. * Each client now holds a pointer to the client eviction memory usage bucket it belongs to and listNode to itself in that bucket for quick removal. * Global `io_threads_op` variable now can contain a `IO_THREADS_OP_IDLE` value indicating no io-threading is currently being executed. * In order to track memory used by each clients in real-time we can't rely on updating these stats in `clientsCron()` alone anymore. So now I call `updateClientMemUsage()` (used to be `clientsCronTrackClientsMemUsage()`) after command processing, after writing data to pubsub clients, after writing the output buffer and after reading from the socket (and maybe other places too). The function is written to be fast. * Clients are evicted if needed (with appropriate log line) in `beforeSleep()` and before processing a command (before performing oom-checks and key-eviction). * All clients memory usage buckets are grouped as follows: * All clients using less than 64k. * 64K..128K * 128K..256K * ... * 2G..4G * All clients using 4g and up. * Added client-eviction.tcl with a bunch of tests for the new mechanism. * Extended maxmemory.tcl to test the interaction between maxmemory and maxmemory-clients settings. * Added an option to flag a numeric configuration variable as a "percent", this means that if we encounter a '%' after the number in the config file (or config set command) we consider it as valid. Such a number is store internally as a negative value. This way an integer value can be interpreted as either a percent (negative) or absolute value (positive). This is useful for example if some numeric configuration can optionally be set to a percentage of something else. Co-authored-by: Oran Agra <oran@redislabs.com>

Async IO threads (#758) This PR is 1 of 3 PRs intended to achieve the goal of 1 million requests per second, as detailed by [dan touitou](https://github.com/touitou-dan) in https://github.com/valkey-io/valkey/issues/22. This PR modifies the IO threads to be fully asynchronous, which is a first and necessary step to allow more work offloading and better utilization of the IO threads. ### Current IO threads state: Valkey IO threads were introduced in Redis 6.0 to allow better utilization of multi-core machines. Before this, Redis was single-threaded and could only use one CPU core for network and command processing. The introduction of IO threads helps in offloading the IO operations to multiple threads. **Current IO Threads flow:** 1. Initialization: When Redis starts, it initializes a specified number of IO threads. These threads are in addition to the main thread, each thread starts with an empty list, the main thread will populate that list in each event-loop with pending-read-clients or pending-write-clients. 2. Read Phase: The main thread accepts incoming connections and reads requests from clients. The reading of requests are offloaded to IO threads. The main thread puts the clients ready-to-read in a list and set the global io_threads_op to IO_THREADS_OP_READ, the IO threads pick the clients up, perform the read operation and parse the first incoming command. 3. Command Processing: After reading the requests, command processing is still single-threaded and handled by the main thread. 4. Write Phase: Similar to the read phase, the write phase is also be offloaded to IO threads. The main thread prepares the response in the clients’ output buffer then the main thread puts the client in the list, and sets the global io_threads_op to the IO_THREADS_OP_WRITE. The IO threads then pick the clients up and perform the write operation to send the responses back to clients. 5. Synchronization: The main-thread communicate with the threads on how many jobs left per each thread with atomic counter. The main-thread doesn’t access the clients while being handled by the IO threads. **Issues with current implementation:** * Underutilized Cores: The current implementation of IO-threads leads to the underutilization of CPU cores. * The main thread remains responsible for a significant portion of IO-related tasks that could be offloaded to IO-threads. * When the main-thread is processing client’s commands, the IO threads are idle for a considerable amount of time. * Notably, the main thread's performance during the IO-related tasks is constrained by the speed of the slowest IO-thread. * Limited Offloading: Currently, Since the Main-threads waits synchronously for the IO threads, the Threads perform only read-parse, and write operations, with parsing done only for the first command. If the threads can do work asynchronously we may offload more work to the threads reducing the load from the main-thread. * TLS: Currently, we don't support IO threads with TLS (where offloading IO would be more beneficial) since TLS read/write operations are not thread-safe with the current implementation. ### Suggested change Non-blocking main thread - The main thread and IO threads will operate in parallel to maximize efficiency. The main thread will not be blocked by IO operations. It will continue to process commands independently of the IO thread's activities. **Implementation details** **Inter-thread communication.** * We use a static, lock-free ring buffer of fixed size (2048 jobs) for the main thread to send jobs and for the IO to receive them. If the ring buffer fills up, the main thread will handle the task itself, acting as back pressure (in case IO operations are more expensive than command processing). A static ring buffer is a better candidate than a dynamic job queue as it eliminates the need for allocation/freeing per job. * An IO job will be in the format: ` [void* function-call-back | void *data] `where data is either a client to read/write from and the function-ptr is the function to be called with the data for example readQueryFromClient using this format we can use it later to offload other types of works to the IO threads. * The Ring buffer is one way from the main-thread to the IO thread, Upon read/write event the main thread will send a read/write job then in before sleep it will iterate over the pending read/write clients to checking for each client if the IO threads has already finished handling it. The IO thread signals it has finished handling a client read/write by toggling an atomic flag read_state / write_state on the client struct. **Thread Safety** As suggested in this solution, the IO threads are reading from and writing to the clients' buffers while the main thread may access those clients. We must ensure no race conditions or unsafe access occurs while keeping the Valkey code simple and lock free. Minimal Action in the IO Threads The main change is to limit the IO thread operations to the bare minimum. The IO thread will access only the client's struct and only the necessary fields in this struct. The IO threads will be responsible for the following: * Read Operation: The IO thread will only read and parse a single command. It will not update the server stats, handle read errors, or parsing errors. These tasks will be taken care of by the main thread. * Write Operation: The IO thread will only write the available data. It will not free the client's replies, handle write errors, or update the server statistics. To achieve this without code duplication, the read/write code has been refactored into smaller, independent components: * Functions that perform only the read/parse/write calls. * Functions that handle the read/parse/write results. This refactor accounts for the majority of the modifications in this PR. **Client Struct Safe Access** As we ensure that the IO threads access memory only within the client struct, we need to ensure thread safety only for the client's struct's shared fields. * Query Buffer * Command parsing - The main thread will not try to parse a command from the query buffer when a client is offloaded to the IO thread. * Client's memory checks in client-cron - The main thread will not access the client query buffer if it is offloaded and will handle the querybuf grow/shrink when the client is back. * CLIENT LIST command - The main thread will busy-wait for the IO thread to finish handling the client, falling back to the current behavior where the main thread waits for the IO thread to finish their processing. * Output Buffer * The IO thread will not change the client's bufpos and won't free the client's reply lists. These actions will be done by the main thread on the client's return from the IO thread. * bufpos / block→used: As the main thread may change the bufpos, the reply-block→used, or add/delete blocks to the reply list while the IO thread writes, we add two fields to the client struct: io_last_bufpos and io_last_reply_block. The IO thread will write until the io_last_bufpos, which was set by the main-thread before sending the client to the IO thread. If more data has been added to the cob in between, it will be written in the next write-job. In addition, the main thread will not trim or merge reply blocks while the client is offloaded. * Parsing Fields * Client's cmd, argc, argv, reqtype, etc., are set during parsing. * The main thread will indicate to the IO thread not to parse a cmd if the client is not reset. In this case, the IO thread will only read from the network and won't attempt to parse a new command. * The main thread won't access the c→cmd/c→argv in the CLIENT LIST command as stated before it will busy wait for the IO threads. * Client Flags * c→flags, which may be changed by the main thread in multiple places, won't be accessed by the IO thread. Instead, the main thread will set the c→io_flags with the information necessary for the IO thread to know the client's state. * Client Close * On freeClient, the main thread will busy wait for the IO thread to finish processing the client's read/write before proceeding to free the client. * Client's Memory Limits * The IO thread won't handle the qb/cob limits. In case a client crosses the qb limit, the IO thread will stop reading for it, letting the main thread know that the client crossed the limit. **TLS** TLS is currently not supported with IO threads for the following reasons: 1.

Read Phase: The main thread accepts incoming connections and reads requests from clients. The reading of requests are offloaded to IO threads. The main thread puts the clients ready-to-read in a list and set the global io_threads_op to IO_THREADS_OP_READ, the IO threads pick the clients up, perform the read operation and parse the first incoming command. 3. Command Processing: After reading the requests, command processing is still single-threaded and handled by the main thread. 4. Write Phase: Similar to the read phase, the write phase is also be offloaded to IO threads. The main thread prepares the response in the clients’ output buffer then the main thread puts the client in the list, and sets the global io_threads_op to the IO_THREADS_OP_WRITE. The IO threads then pick the clients up and perform the write operation to send the responses back to clients. 5. Synchronization: The main-thread communicate with the threads on how many jobs left per each thread with atomic counter. The main-thread doesn’t access the clients while being handled by the IO threads. **Issues with current implementation:** * Underutilized Cores: The current implementation of IO-threads leads to the underutilization of CPU cores. * The main thread remains responsible for a significant portion of IO-related tasks that could be offloaded to IO-threads. * When the main-thread is processing client’s commands, the IO threads are idle for a considerable amount of time. * Notably, the main thread's performance during the IO-related tasks is constrained by the speed of the slowest IO-thread. * Limited Offloading: Currently, Since the Main-threads waits synchronously for the IO threads, the Threads perform only read-parse, and write operations, with parsing done only for the first command. If the threads can do work asynchronously we may offload more work to the threads reducing the load from the main-thread. * TLS: Currently, we don't support IO threads with TLS (where offloading IO would be more beneficial) since TLS read/write operations are not thread-safe with the current implementation. ### Suggested change Non-blocking main thread - The main thread and IO threads will operate in parallel to maximize efficiency. The main thread will not be blocked by IO operations. It will continue to process commands independently of the IO thread's activities. **Implementation details** **Inter-thread communication.** * We use a static, lock-free ring buffer of fixed size (2048 jobs) for the main thread to send jobs and for the IO to receive them. If the ring buffer fills up, the main thread will handle the task itself, acting as back pressure (in case IO operations are more expensive than command processing). A static ring buffer is a better candidate than a dynamic job queue as it eliminates the need for allocation/freeing per job. * An IO job will be in the format: ` [void* function-call-back | void *data] `where data is either a client to read/write from and the function-ptr is the function to be called with the data for example readQueryFromClient using this format we can use it later to offload other types of works to the IO threads. * The Ring buffer is one way from the main-thread to the IO thread, Upon read/write event the main thread will send a read/write job then in before sleep it will iterate over the pending read/write clients to checking for each client if the IO threads has already finished handling it. The IO thread signals it has finished handling a client read/write by toggling an atomic flag read_state / write_state on the client struct. **Thread Safety** As suggested in this solution, the IO threads are reading from and writing to the clients' buffers while the main thread may access those clients. We must ensure no race conditions or unsafe access occurs while keeping the Valkey code simple and lock free. Minimal Action in the IO Threads The main change is to limit the IO thread operations to the bare minimum. The IO thread will access only the client's struct and only the necessary fields in this struct. The IO threads will be responsible for the following: * Read Operation: The IO thread will only read and parse a single command. It will not update the server stats, handle read errors, or parsing errors. These tasks will be taken care of by the main thread. * Write Operation: The IO thread will only write the available data. It will not free the client's replies, handle write errors, or update the server statistics. To achieve this without code duplication, the read/write code has been refactored into smaller, independent components: * Functions that perform only the read/parse/write calls. * Functions that handle the read/parse/write results. This refactor accounts for the majority of the modifications in this PR. **Client Struct Safe Access** As we ensure that the IO threads access memory only within the client struct, we need to ensure thread safety only for the client's struct's shared fields. * Query Buffer * Command parsing - The main thread will not try to parse a command from the query buffer when a client is offloaded to the IO thread. * Client's memory checks in client-cron - The main thread will not access the client query buffer if it is offloaded and will handle the querybuf grow/shrink when the client is back. * CLIENT LIST command - The main thread will busy-wait for the IO thread to finish handling the client, falling back to the current behavior where the main thread waits for the IO thread to finish their processing. * Output Buffer * The IO thread will not change the client's bufpos and won't free the client's reply lists. These actions will be done by the main thread on the client's return from the IO thread. * bufpos / block→used: As the main thread may change the bufpos, the reply-block→used, or add/delete blocks to the reply list while the IO thread writes, we add two fields to the client struct: io_last_bufpos and io_last_reply_block. The IO thread will write until the io_last_bufpos, which was set by the main-thread before sending the client to the IO thread. If more data has been added to the cob in between, it will be written in the next write-job. In addition, the main thread will not trim or merge reply blocks while the client is offloaded. * Parsing Fields * Client's cmd, argc, argv, reqtype, etc., are set during parsing. * The main thread will indicate to the IO thread not to parse a cmd if the client is not reset. In this case, the IO thread will only read from the network and won't attempt to parse a new command. * The main thread won't access the c→cmd/c→argv in the CLIENT LIST command as stated before it will busy wait for the IO threads. * Client Flags * c→flags, which may be changed by the main thread in multiple places, won't be accessed by the IO thread. Instead, the main thread will set the c→io_flags with the information necessary for the IO thread to know the client's state. * Client Close * On freeClient, the main thread will busy wait for the IO thread to finish processing the client's read/write before proceeding to free the client. * Client's Memory Limits * The IO thread won't handle the qb/cob limits. In case a client crosses the qb limit, the IO thread will stop reading for it, letting the main thread know that the client crossed the limit. **TLS** TLS is currently not supported with IO threads for the following reasons: 1. Pending reads - If SSL has pending data that has already been read from the socket, there is a risk of not calling the read handler again. To handle this, a list is used to hold the pending clients. With IO threads, multiple threads can access the list concurrently. 2. Event loop modification - Currently, the TLS code registers/unregisters the file descriptor from the event loop depending on the read/write results. With IO threads, multiple threads can modify the event loop struct simultaneously. 3. The same client can be sent to 2 different threads concurrently (https://github.com/redis/redis/issues/12540). Those issues were handled in the current PR: 1. The IO thread only performs the read operation. The main thread will check for pending reads after the client returns from the IO thread and will be the only one to access the pending list. 2. The registering/unregistering of events will be similarly postponed and handled by the main thread only. 3. Each client is being sent to the same dedicated thread (c→id % num_of_threads). **Sending Replies Immediately with IO threads.** Currently, after processing a command, we add the client to the pending_writes_list. Only after processing all the clients do we send all the replies. Since the IO threads are now working asynchronously, we can send the reply immediately after processing the client’s requests, reducing the command latency. However, if we are using AOF=always, we must wait for the AOF buffer to be written, in which case we revert to the current behavior. **IO threads dynamic adjustment** Currently, we use an all-or-nothing approach when activating the IO threads. The current logic is as follows: if the number of pending write clients is greater than twice the number of threads (including the main thread), we enable all threads; otherwise, we enable none. For example, if 8 IO threads are defined, we enable all 8 threads if there are 16 pending clients; else, we enable none. It makes more sense to enable partial activation of the IO threads. If we have 10 pending clients, we will enable 5 threads, and so on. This approach allows for a more granular and efficient allocation of resources based on the current workload. In addition, the user will now be able to change the number of I/O threads at runtime. For example, when decreasing the number of threads from 4 to 2, threads 3 and 4 will be closed after flushing their job queues. **Tests** Currently, we run the io-threads tests with 4 IO threads (https://github.com/valkey-io/valkey/blob/443d80f1686377ad42cbf92d98ecc6d240325ee1/.github/workflows/daily.yml#L353). This means that we will not activate the IO threads unless there are 8 (threads * 2) pending write clients per single loop, which is unlikely to happened in most of tests, meaning the IO threads are not currently being tested. To enforce the main thread to always offload work to the IO threads, regardless of the number of pending events, we add an events-per-io-thread configuration with a default value of 2. When set to 0, this configuration will force the main thread to always offload work to the IO threads. When we offload every single read/write operation to the IO threads, the IO-threads are running with 100% CPU when running multiple tests concurrently some tests fail as a result of larger than expected command latencies. To address this issue, we have to add some after or wait_for calls to some of the tests to ensure they pass with IO threads as well. Signed-off-by: Uri Yagelnik <uriy@amazon.com>

Client eviction (#8687) ### Description A mechanism for disconnecting clients when the sum of all connected clients is above a configured limit. This prevents eviction or OOM caused by accumulated used memory between all clients. It's a complimentary mechanism to the `client-output-buffer-limit` mechanism which takes into account not only a single client and not only output buffers but rather all memory used by all clients. #### Design The general design is as following: * We track memory usage of each client, taking into account all memory used by the client (query buffer, output buffer, parsed arguments, etc...). This is kept up to date after reading from the socket, after processing commands and after writing to the socket. * Based on the used memory we sort all clients into buckets. Each bucket contains all clients using up up to x2 memory of the clients in the bucket below it. For example up to 1m clients, up to 2m clients, up to 4m clients, ... * Before processing a command and before sleep we check if we're over the configured limit. If we are we start disconnecting clients from larger buckets downwards until we're under the limit. #### Config `maxmemory-clients` max memory all clients are allowed to consume, above this threshold we disconnect clients. This config can either be set to 0 (meaning no limit), a size in bytes (possibly with MB/GB suffix), or as a percentage of `maxmemory` by using the `%` suffix (e.g. setting it to `10%` would mean 10% of `maxmemory`). #### Important code changes * During the development I encountered yet more situations where our io-threads access global vars. And needed to fix them. I also had to handle keeps the clients sorted into the memory buckets (which are global) while their memory usage changes in the io-thread. To achieve this I decided to simplify how we check if we're in an io-thread and make it much more explicit. I removed the `CLIENT_PENDING_READ` flag used for checking if the client is in an io-thread (it wasn't used for anything else) and just used the global `io_threads_op` variable the same way to check during writes. * I optimized the cleanup of the client from the `clients_pending_read` list on client freeing. We now store a pointer in the `client` struct to this list so we don't need to search in it (`pending_read_list_node`). * Added `evicted_clients` stat to `INFO` command. * Added `CLIENT NO-EVICT ON|OFF` sub command to exclude a specific client from the client eviction mechanism. Added corrosponding 'e' flag in the client info string. * Added `multi-mem` field in the client info string to show how much memory is used up by buffered multi commands. * Client `tot-mem` now accounts for buffered multi-commands, pubsub patterns and channels (partially), tracking prefixes (partially). * CLIENT_CLOSE_ASAP flag is now handled in a new `beforeNextClient()` function so clients will be disconnected between processing different clients and not only before sleep. This new function can be used in the future for work we want to do outside the command processing loop but don't want to wait for all clients to be processed before we get to it. Specifically I wanted to handle output-buffer-limit related closing before we process client eviction in case the two race with each other. * Added a `DEBUG CLIENT-EVICTION` command to print out info about the client eviction buckets. * Each client now holds a pointer to the client eviction memory usage bucket it belongs to and listNode to itself in that bucket for quick removal. * Global `io_threads_op` variable now can contain a `IO_THREADS_OP_IDLE` value indicating no io-threading is currently being executed. * In order to track memory used by each clients in real-time we can't rely on updating these stats in `clientsCron()` alone anymore. So now I call `updateClientMemUsage()` (used to be `clientsCronTrackClientsMemUsage()`) after command processing, after writing data to pubsub clients, after writing the output buffer and after reading from the socket (and maybe other places too). The function is written to be fast. * Clients are evicted if needed (with appropriate log line) in `beforeSleep()` and before processing a command (before performing oom-checks and key-eviction). * All clients memory usage buckets are grouped as follows: * All clients using less than 64k. * 64K..128K * 128K..256K * ... * 2G..4G * All clients using 4g and up. * Added client-eviction.tcl with a bunch of tests for the new mechanism. * Extended maxmemory.tcl to test the interaction between maxmemory and maxmemory-clients settings. * Added an option to flag a numeric configuration variable as a "percent", this means that if we encounter a '%' after the number in the config file (or config set command) we consider it as valid. Such a number is store internally as a negative value. This way an integer value can be interpreted as either a percent (negative) or absolute value (positive). This is useful for example if some numeric configuration can optionally be set to a percentage of something else. Co-authored-by: Oran Agra <oran@redislabs.com>

This refactor accounts for the majority of the modifications in this PR. **Client Struct Safe Access** As we ensure that the IO threads access memory only within the client struct, we need to ensure thread safety only for the client's struct's shared fields. * Query Buffer * Command parsing - The main thread will not try to parse a command from the query buffer when a client is offloaded to the IO thread. * Client's memory checks in client-cron - The main thread will not access the client query buffer if it is offloaded and will handle the querybuf grow/shrink when the client is back. * CLIENT LIST command - The main thread will busy-wait for the IO thread to finish handling the client, falling back to the current behavior where the main thread waits for the IO thread to finish their processing. * Output Buffer * The IO thread will not change the client's bufpos and won't free the client's reply lists. These actions will be done by the main thread on the client's return from the IO thread. * bufpos / block→used: As the main thread may change the bufpos, the reply-block→used, or add/delete blocks to the reply list while the IO thread writes, we add two fields to the client struct: io_last_bufpos and io_last_reply_block. The IO thread will write until the io_last_bufpos, which was set by the main-thread before sending the client to the IO thread. If more data has been added to the cob in between, it will be written in the next write-job. In addition, the main thread will not trim or merge reply blocks while the client is offloaded. * Parsing Fields * Client's cmd, argc, argv, reqtype, etc., are set during parsing. * The main thread will indicate to the IO thread not to parse a cmd if the client is not reset. In this case, the IO thread will only read from the network and won't attempt to parse a new command. * The main thread won't access the c→cmd/c→argv in the CLIENT LIST command as stated before it will busy wait for the IO threads. * Client Flags * c→flags, which may be changed by the main thread in multiple places, won't be accessed by the IO thread. Instead, the main thread will set the c→io_flags with the information necessary for the IO thread to know the client's state. * Client Close * On freeClient, the main thread will busy wait for the IO thread to finish processing the client's read/write before proceeding to free the client. * Client's Memory Limits * The IO thread won't handle the qb/cob limits. In case a client crosses the qb limit, the IO thread will stop reading for it, letting the main thread know that the client crossed the limit. **TLS** TLS is currently not supported with IO threads for the following reasons: 1. Pending reads - If SSL has pending data that has already been read from the socket, there is a risk of not calling the read handler again. To handle this, a list is used to hold the pending clients. With IO threads, multiple threads can access the list concurrently. 2. Event loop modification - Currently, the TLS code registers/unregisters the file descriptor from the event loop depending on the read/write results. With IO threads, multiple threads can modify the event loop struct simultaneously. 3. The same client can be sent to 2 different threads concurrently (https://github.com/redis/redis/issues/12540). Those issues were handled in the current PR: 1. The IO thread only performs the read operation. The main thread will check for pending reads after the client returns from the IO thread and will be the only one to access the pending list. 2. The registering/unregistering of events will be similarly postponed and handled by the main thread only. 3. Each client is being sent to the same dedicated thread (c→id % num_of_threads). **Sending Replies Immediately with IO threads.** Currently, after processing a command, we add the client to the pending_writes_list. Only after processing all the clients do we send all the replies. Since the IO threads are now working asynchronously, we can send the reply immediately after processing the client’s requests, reducing the command latency. However, if we are using AOF=always, we must wait for the AOF buffer to be written, in which case we revert to the current behavior. **IO threads dynamic adjustment** Currently, we use an all-or-nothing approach when activating the IO threads. The current logic is as follows: if the number of pending write clients is greater than twice the number of threads (including the main thread), we enable all threads; otherwise, we enable none. For example, if 8 IO threads are defined, we enable all 8 threads if there are 16 pending clients; else, we enable none. It makes more sense to enable partial activation of the IO threads. If we have 10 pending clients, we will enable 5 threads, and so on. This approach allows for a more granular and efficient allocation of resources based on the current workload. In addition, the user will now be able to change the number of I/O threads at runtime. For example, when decreasing the number of threads from 4 to 2, threads 3 and 4 will be closed after flushing their job queues. **Tests** Currently, we run the io-threads tests with 4 IO threads (https://github.com/valkey-io/valkey/blob/443d80f1686377ad42cbf92d98ecc6d240325ee1/.github/workflows/daily.yml#L353). This means that we will not activate the IO threads unless there are 8 (threads * 2) pending write clients per single loop, which is unlikely to happened in most of tests, meaning the IO threads are not currently being tested. To enforce the main thread to always offload work to the IO threads, regardless of the number of pending events, we add an events-per-io-thread configuration with a default value of 2. When set to 0, this configuration will force the main thread to always offload work to the IO threads. When we offload every single read/write operation to the IO threads, the IO-threads are running with 100% CPU when running multiple tests concurrently some tests fail as a result of larger than expected command latencies. To address this issue, we have to add some after or wait_for calls to some of the tests to ensure they pass with IO threads as well. Signed-off-by: Uri Yagelnik <uriy@amazon.com>

Client eviction (#8687) ### Description A mechanism for disconnecting clients when the sum of all connected clients is above a configured limit. This prevents eviction or OOM caused by accumulated used memory between all clients. It's a complimentary mechanism to the `client-output-buffer-limit` mechanism which takes into account not only a single client and not only output buffers but rather all memory used by all clients. #### Design The general design is as following: * We track memory usage of each client, taking into account all memory used by the client (query buffer, output buffer, parsed arguments, etc...). This is kept up to date after reading from the socket, after processing commands and after writing to the socket. * Based on the used memory we sort all clients into buckets. Each bucket contains all clients using up up to x2 memory of the clients in the bucket below it. For example up to 1m clients, up to 2m clients, up to 4m clients, ... * Before processing a command and before sleep we check if we're over the configured limit. If we are we start disconnecting clients from larger buckets downwards until we're under the limit. #### Config `maxmemory-clients` max memory all clients are allowed to consume, above this threshold we disconnect clients. This config can either be set to 0 (meaning no limit), a size in bytes (possibly with MB/GB suffix), or as a percentage of `maxmemory` by using the `%` suffix (e.g. setting it to `10%` would mean 10% of `maxmemory`). #### Important code changes * During the development I encountered yet more situations where our io-threads access global vars. And needed to fix them. I also had to handle keeps the clients sorted into the memory buckets (which are global) while their memory usage changes in the io-thread. To achieve this I decided to simplify how we check if we're in an io-thread and make it much more explicit. I removed the `CLIENT_PENDING_READ` flag used for checking if the client is in an io-thread (it wasn't used for anything else) and just used the global `io_threads_op` variable the same way to check during writes. * I optimized the cleanup of the client from the `clients_pending_read` list on client freeing. We now store a pointer in the `client` struct to this list so we don't need to search in it (`pending_read_list_node`). * Added `evicted_clients` stat to `INFO` command. * Added `CLIENT NO-EVICT ON|OFF` sub command to exclude a specific client from the client eviction mechanism. Added corrosponding 'e' flag in the client info string. * Added `multi-mem` field in the client info string to show how much memory is used up by buffered multi commands. * Client `tot-mem` now accounts for buffered multi-commands, pubsub patterns and channels (partially), tracking prefixes (partially). * CLIENT_CLOSE_ASAP flag is now handled in a new `beforeNextClient()` function so clients will be disconnected between processing different clients and not only before sleep. This new function can be used in the future for work we want to do outside the command processing loop but don't want to wait for all clients to be processed before we get to it. Specifically I wanted to handle output-buffer-limit related closing before we process client eviction in case the two race with each other. * Added a `DEBUG CLIENT-EVICTION` command to print out info about the client eviction buckets. * Each client now holds a pointer to the client eviction memory usage bucket it belongs to and listNode to itself in that bucket for quick removal. * Global `io_threads_op` variable now can contain a `IO_THREADS_OP_IDLE` value indicating no io-threading is currently being executed. * In order to track memory used by each clients in real-time we can't rely on updating these stats in `clientsCron()` alone anymore. So now I call `updateClientMemUsage()` (used to be `clientsCronTrackClientsMemUsage()`) after command processing, after writing data to pubsub clients, after writing the output buffer and after reading from the socket (and maybe other places too). The function is written to be fast. * Clients are evicted if needed (with appropriate log line) in `beforeSleep()` and before processing a command (before performing oom-checks and key-eviction). * All clients memory usage buckets are grouped as follows: * All clients using less than 64k. * 64K..128K * 128K..256K * ... * 2G..4G * All clients using 4g and up. * Added client-eviction.tcl with a bunch of tests for the new mechanism. * Extended maxmemory.tcl to test the interaction between maxmemory and maxmemory-clients settings. * Added an option to flag a numeric configuration variable as a "percent", this means that if we encounter a '%' after the number in the config file (or config set command) we consider it as valid. Such a number is store internally as a negative value. This way an integer value can be interpreted as either a percent (negative) or absolute value (positive). This is useful for example if some numeric configuration can optionally be set to a percentage of something else. Co-authored-by: Oran Agra <oran@redislabs.com>

It's a complimentary mechanism to the `client-output-buffer-limit` mechanism which takes into account not only a single client and not only output buffers but rather all memory used by all clients. #### Design The general design is as following: * We track memory usage of each client, taking into account all memory used by the client (query buffer, output buffer, parsed arguments, etc...). This is kept up to date after reading from the socket, after processing commands and after writing to the socket. * Based on the used memory we sort all clients into buckets. Each bucket contains all clients using up up to x2 memory of the clients in the bucket below it. For example up to 1m clients, up to 2m clients, up to 4m clients, ... * Before processing a command and before sleep we check if we're over the configured limit. If we are we start disconnecting clients from larger buckets downwards until we're under the limit. #### Config `maxmemory-clients` max memory all clients are allowed to consume, above this threshold we disconnect clients. This config can either be set to 0 (meaning no limit), a size in bytes (possibly with MB/GB suffix), or as a percentage of `maxmemory` by using the `%` suffix (e.g. setting it to `10%` would mean 10% of `maxmemory`). #### Important code changes * During the development I encountered yet more situations where our io-threads access global vars. And needed to fix them. I also had to handle keeps the clients sorted into the memory buckets (which are global) while their memory usage changes in the io-thread. To achieve this I decided to simplify how we check if we're in an io-thread and make it much more explicit. I removed the `CLIENT_PENDING_READ` flag used for checking if the client is in an io-thread (it wasn't used for anything else) and just used the global `io_threads_op` variable the same way to check during writes. * I optimized the cleanup of the client from the `clients_pending_read` list on client freeing. We now store a pointer in the `client` struct to this list so we don't need to search in it (`pending_read_list_node`). * Added `evicted_clients` stat to `INFO` command. * Added `CLIENT NO-EVICT ON|OFF` sub command to exclude a specific client from the client eviction mechanism. Added corrosponding 'e' flag in the client info string. * Added `multi-mem` field in the client info string to show how much memory is used up by buffered multi commands. * Client `tot-mem` now accounts for buffered multi-commands, pubsub patterns and channels (partially), tracking prefixes (partially). * CLIENT_CLOSE_ASAP flag is now handled in a new `beforeNextClient()` function so clients will be disconnected between processing different clients and not only before sleep. This new function can be used in the future for work we want to do outside the command processing loop but don't want to wait for all clients to be processed before we get to it. Specifically I wanted to handle output-buffer-limit related closing before we process client eviction in case the two race with each other. * Added a `DEBUG CLIENT-EVICTION` command to print out info about the client eviction buckets. * Each client now holds a pointer to the client eviction memory usage bucket it belongs to and listNode to itself in that bucket for quick removal. * Global `io_threads_op` variable now can contain a `IO_THREADS_OP_IDLE` value indicating no io-threading is currently being executed. * In order to track memory used by each clients in real-time we can't rely on updating these stats in `clientsCron()` alone anymore. So now I call `updateClientMemUsage()` (used to be `clientsCronTrackClientsMemUsage()`) after command processing, after writing data to pubsub clients, after writing the output buffer and after reading from the socket (and maybe other places too). The function is written to be fast. * Clients are evicted if needed (with appropriate log line) in `beforeSleep()` and before processing a command (before performing oom-checks and key-eviction). * All clients memory usage buckets are grouped as follows: * All clients using less than 64k. * 64K..128K * 128K..256K * ... * 2G..4G * All clients using 4g and up. * Added client-eviction.tcl with a bunch of tests for the new mechanism. * Extended maxmemory.tcl to test the interaction between maxmemory and maxmemory-clients settings. * Added an option to flag a numeric configuration variable as a "percent", this means that if we encounter a '%' after the number in the config file (or config set command) we consider it as valid. Such a number is store internally as a negative value. This way an integer value can be interpreted as either a percent (negative) or absolute value (positive). This is useful for example if some numeric configuration can optionally be set to a percentage of something else. Co-authored-by: Oran Agra <oran@redislabs.com>

Added corrosponding 'e' flag in the client info string. * Added `multi-mem` field in the client info string to show how much memory is used up by buffered multi commands. * Client `tot-mem` now accounts for buffered multi-commands, pubsub patterns and channels (partially), tracking prefixes (partially). * CLIENT_CLOSE_ASAP flag is now handled in a new `beforeNextClient()` function so clients will be disconnected between processing different clients and not only before sleep. This new function can be used in the future for work we want to do outside the command processing loop but don't want to wait for all clients to be processed before we get to it. Specifically I wanted to handle output-buffer-limit related closing before we process client eviction in case the two race with each other. * Added a `DEBUG CLIENT-EVICTION` command to print out info about the client eviction buckets. * Each client now holds a pointer to the client eviction memory usage bucket it belongs to and listNode to itself in that bucket for quick removal. * Global `io_threads_op` variable now can contain a `IO_THREADS_OP_IDLE` value indicating no io-threading is currently being executed. * In order to track memory used by each clients in real-time we can't rely on updating these stats in `clientsCron()` alone anymore.

The function is written to be fast. * Clients are evicted if needed (with appropriate log line) in `beforeSleep()` and before processing a command (before performing oom-checks and key-eviction). * All clients memory usage buckets are grouped as follows: * All clients using less than 64k. * 64K..128K * 128K..256K * ... * 2G..4G * All clients using 4g and up. * Added client-eviction.tcl with a bunch of tests for the new mechanism. * Extended maxmemory.tcl to test the interaction between maxmemory and maxmemory-clients settings. * Added an option to flag a numeric configuration variable as a "percent", this means that if we encounter a '%' after the number in the config file (or config set command) we consider it as valid.

Client eviction (#8687) ### Description A mechanism for disconnecting clients when the sum of all connected clients is above a configured limit. This prevents eviction or OOM caused by accumulated used memory between all clients. It's a complimentary mechanism to the `client-output-buffer-limit` mechanism which takes into account not only a single client and not only output buffers but rather all memory used by all clients. #### Design The general design is as following: * We track memory usage of each client, taking into account all memory used by the client (query buffer, output buffer, parsed arguments, etc...). This is kept up to date after reading from the socket, after processing commands and after writing to the socket. * Based on the used memory we sort all clients into buckets. Each bucket contains all clients using up up to x2 memory of the clients in the bucket below it. For example up to 1m clients, up to 2m clients, up to 4m clients, ... * Before processing a command and before sleep we check if we're over the configured limit. If we are we start disconnecting clients from larger buckets downwards until we're under the limit. #### Config `maxmemory-clients` max memory all clients are allowed to consume, above this threshold we disconnect clients.

This new function can be used in the future for work we want to do outside the command processing loop but don't want to wait for all clients to be processed before we get to it. Specifically I wanted to handle output-buffer-limit related closing before we process client eviction in case the two race with each other. * Added a `DEBUG CLIENT-EVICTION` command to print out info about the client eviction buckets. * Each client now holds a pointer to the client eviction memory usage bucket it belongs to and listNode to itself in that bucket for quick removal. * Global `io_threads_op` variable now can contain a `IO_THREADS_OP_IDLE` value indicating no io-threading is currently being executed. * In order to track memory used by each clients in real-time we can't rely on updating these stats in `clientsCron()` alone anymore. So now I call `updateClientMemUsage()` (used to be `clientsCronTrackClientsMemUsage()`) after command processing, after writing data to pubsub clients, after writing the output buffer and after reading from the socket (and maybe other places too). The function is written to be fast. * Clients are evicted if needed (with appropriate log line) in `beforeSleep()` and before processing a command (before performing oom-checks and key-eviction). * All clients memory usage buckets are grouped as follows: * All clients using less than 64k. * 64K..128K * 128K..256K * ... * 2G..4G * All clients using 4g and up. * Added client-eviction.tcl with a bunch of tests for the new mechanism. * Extended maxmemory.tcl to test the interaction between maxmemory and maxmemory-clients settings. * Added an option to flag a numeric configuration variable as a "percent", this means that if we encounter a '%' after the number in the config file (or config set command) we consider it as valid. Such a number is store internally as a negative value. This way an integer value can be interpreted as either a percent (negative) or absolute value (positive). This is useful for example if some numeric configuration can optionally be set to a percentage of something else. Co-authored-by: Oran Agra <oran@redislabs.com>

Client eviction (#8687) ### Description A mechanism for disconnecting clients when the sum of all connected clients is above a configured limit. This prevents eviction or OOM caused by accumulated used memory between all clients. It's a complimentary mechanism to the `client-output-buffer-limit` mechanism which takes into account not only a single client and not only output buffers but rather all memory used by all clients. #### Design The general design is as following: * We track memory usage of each client, taking into account all memory used by the client (query buffer, output buffer, parsed arguments, etc...). This is kept up to date after reading from the socket, after processing commands and after writing to the socket. * Based on the used memory we sort all clients into buckets. Each bucket contains all clients using up up to x2 memory of the clients in the bucket below it. For example up to 1m clients, up to 2m clients, up to 4m clients, ... * Before processing a command and before sleep we check if we're over the configured limit. If we are we start disconnecting clients from larger buckets downwards until we're under the limit. #### Config `maxmemory-clients` max memory all clients are allowed to consume, above this threshold we disconnect clients. This config can either be set to 0 (meaning no limit), a size in bytes (possibly with MB/GB suffix), or as a percentage of `maxmemory` by using the `%` suffix (e.g. setting it to `10%` would mean 10% of `maxmemory`). #### Important code changes * During the development I encountered yet more situations where our io-threads access global vars. And needed to fix them. I also had to handle keeps the clients sorted into the memory buckets (which are global) while their memory usage changes in the io-thread. To achieve this I decided to simplify how we check if we're in an io-thread and make it much more explicit. I removed the `CLIENT_PENDING_READ` flag used for checking if the client is in an io-thread (it wasn't used for anything else) and just used the global `io_threads_op` variable the same way to check during writes. * I optimized the cleanup of the client from the `clients_pending_read` list on client freeing. We now store a pointer in the `client` struct to this list so we don't need to search in it (`pending_read_list_node`). * Added `evicted_clients` stat to `INFO` command. * Added `CLIENT NO-EVICT ON|OFF` sub command to exclude a specific client from the client eviction mechanism.

Added corrosponding 'e' flag in the client info string. * Added `multi-mem` field in the client info string to show how much memory is used up by buffered multi commands. * Client `tot-mem` now accounts for buffered multi-commands, pubsub patterns and channels (partially), tracking prefixes (partially). * CLIENT_CLOSE_ASAP flag is now handled in a new `beforeNextClient()` function so clients will be disconnected between processing different clients and not only before sleep. This new function can be used in the future for work we want to do outside the command processing loop but don't want to wait for all clients to be processed before we get to it. Specifically I wanted to handle output-buffer-limit related closing before we process client eviction in case the two race with each other. * Added a `DEBUG CLIENT-EVICTION` command to print out info about the client eviction buckets. * Each client now holds a pointer to the client eviction memory usage bucket it belongs to and listNode to itself in that bucket for quick removal. * Global `io_threads_op` variable now can contain a `IO_THREADS_OP_IDLE` value indicating no io-threading is currently being executed. * In order to track memory used by each clients in real-time we can't rely on updating these stats in `clientsCron()` alone anymore. So now I call `updateClientMemUsage()` (used to be `clientsCronTrackClientsMemUsage()`) after command processing, after writing data to pubsub clients, after writing the output buffer and after reading from the socket (and maybe other places too). The function is written to be fast. * Clients are evicted if needed (with appropriate log line) in `beforeSleep()` and before processing a command (before performing oom-checks and key-eviction). * All clients memory usage buckets are grouped as follows: * All clients using less than 64k. * 64K..128K * 128K..256K * ... * 2G..4G * All clients using 4g and up. * Added client-eviction.tcl with a bunch of tests for the new mechanism. * Extended maxmemory.tcl to test the interaction between maxmemory and maxmemory-clients settings. * Added an option to flag a numeric configuration variable as a "percent", this means that if we encounter a '%' after the number in the config file (or config set command) we consider it as valid. Such a number is store internally as a negative value. This way an integer value can be interpreted as either a percent (negative) or absolute value (positive). This is useful for example if some numeric configuration can optionally be set to a percentage of something else. Co-authored-by: Oran Agra <oran@redislabs.com>

Client eviction (#8687) ### Description A mechanism for disconnecting clients when the sum of all connected clients is above a configured limit. This prevents eviction or OOM caused by accumulated used memory between all clients. It's a complimentary mechanism to the `client-output-buffer-limit` mechanism which takes into account not only a single client and not only output buffers but rather all memory used by all clients. #### Design The general design is as following: * We track memory usage of each client, taking into account all memory used by the client (query buffer, output buffer, parsed arguments, etc...). This is kept up to date after reading from the socket, after processing commands and after writing to the socket. * Based on the used memory we sort all clients into buckets. Each bucket contains all clients using up up to x2 memory of the clients in the bucket below it. For example up to 1m clients, up to 2m clients, up to 4m clients, ... * Before processing a command and before sleep we check if we're over the configured limit. If we are we start disconnecting clients from larger buckets downwards until we're under the limit. #### Config `maxmemory-clients` max memory all clients are allowed to consume, above this threshold we disconnect clients. This config can either be set to 0 (meaning no limit), a size in bytes (possibly with MB/GB suffix), or as a percentage of `maxmemory` by using the `%` suffix (e.g. setting it to `10%` would mean 10% of `maxmemory`). #### Important code changes * During the development I encountered yet more situations where our io-threads access global vars. And needed to fix them. I also had to handle keeps the clients sorted into the memory buckets (which are global) while their memory usage changes in the io-thread. To achieve this I decided to simplify how we check if we're in an io-thread and make it much more explicit.

Client eviction (#8687) ### Description A mechanism for disconnecting clients when the sum of all connected clients is above a configured limit. This prevents eviction or OOM caused by accumulated used memory between all clients. It's a complimentary mechanism to the `client-output-buffer-limit` mechanism which takes into account not only a single client and not only output buffers but rather all memory used by all clients. #### Design The general design is as following: * We track memory usage of each client, taking into account all memory used by the client (query buffer, output buffer, parsed arguments, etc...). This is kept up to date after reading from the socket, after processing commands and after writing to the socket. * Based on the used memory we sort all clients into buckets. Each bucket contains all clients using up up to x2 memory of the clients in the bucket below it. For example up to 1m clients, up to 2m clients, up to 4m clients, ... * Before processing a command and before sleep we check if we're over the configured limit. If we are we start disconnecting clients from larger buckets downwards until we're under the limit. #### Config `maxmemory-clients` max memory all clients are allowed to consume, above this threshold we disconnect clients. This config can either be set to 0 (meaning no limit), a size in bytes (possibly with MB/GB suffix), or as a percentage of `maxmemory` by using the `%` suffix (e.g. setting it to `10%` would mean 10% of `maxmemory`). #### Important code changes * During the development I encountered yet more situations where our io-threads access global vars. And needed to fix them. I also had to handle keeps the clients sorted into the memory buckets (which are global) while their memory usage changes in the io-thread. To achieve this I decided to simplify how we check if we're in an io-thread and make it much more explicit. I removed the `CLIENT_PENDING_READ` flag used for checking if the client is in an io-thread (it wasn't used for anything else) and just used the global `io_threads_op` variable the same way to check during writes. * I optimized the cleanup of the client from the `clients_pending_read` list on client freeing. We now store a pointer in the `client` struct to this list so we don't need to search in it (`pending_read_list_node`). * Added `evicted_clients` stat to `INFO` command. * Added `CLIENT NO-EVICT ON|OFF` sub command to exclude a specific client from the client eviction mechanism.

# Decrease maxmemory_clients and expect client eviction
r config set maxmemory-clients [expr $maxmemory_clients / 2]
Async IO threads (#758) This PR is 1 of 3 PRs intended to achieve the goal of 1 million requests per second, as detailed by [dan touitou](https://github.com/touitou-dan) in https://github.com/valkey-io/valkey/issues/22. This PR modifies the IO threads to be fully asynchronous, which is a first and necessary step to allow more work offloading and better utilization of the IO threads. ### Current IO threads state: Valkey IO threads were introduced in Redis 6.0 to allow better utilization of multi-core machines. Before this, Redis was single-threaded and could only use one CPU core for network and command processing. The introduction of IO threads helps in offloading the IO operations to multiple threads. **Current IO Threads flow:** 1. Initialization: When Redis starts, it initializes a specified number of IO threads. These threads are in addition to the main thread, each thread starts with an empty list, the main thread will populate that list in each event-loop with pending-read-clients or pending-write-clients. 2. Read Phase: The main thread accepts incoming connections and reads requests from clients. The reading of requests are offloaded to IO threads. The main thread puts the clients ready-to-read in a list and set the global io_threads_op to IO_THREADS_OP_READ, the IO threads pick the clients up, perform the read operation and parse the first incoming command. 3. Command Processing: After reading the requests, command processing is still single-threaded and handled by the main thread. 4. Write Phase: Similar to the read phase, the write phase is also be offloaded to IO threads. The main thread prepares the response in the clients’ output buffer then the main thread puts the client in the list, and sets the global io_threads_op to the IO_THREADS_OP_WRITE. The IO threads then pick the clients up and perform the write operation to send the responses back to clients. 5. Synchronization: The main-thread communicate with the threads on how many jobs left per each thread with atomic counter. The main-thread doesn’t access the clients while being handled by the IO threads. **Issues with current implementation:** * Underutilized Cores: The current implementation of IO-threads leads to the underutilization of CPU cores. * The main thread remains responsible for a significant portion of IO-related tasks that could be offloaded to IO-threads. * When the main-thread is processing client’s commands, the IO threads are idle for a considerable amount of time. * Notably, the main thread's performance during the IO-related tasks is constrained by the speed of the slowest IO-thread. * Limited Offloading: Currently, Since the Main-threads waits synchronously for the IO threads, the Threads perform only read-parse, and write operations, with parsing done only for the first command. If the threads can do work asynchronously we may offload more work to the threads reducing the load from the main-thread. * TLS: Currently, we don't support IO threads with TLS (where offloading IO would be more beneficial) since TLS read/write operations are not thread-safe with the current implementation. ### Suggested change Non-blocking main thread - The main thread and IO threads will operate in parallel to maximize efficiency. The main thread will not be blocked by IO operations. It will continue to process commands independently of the IO thread's activities. **Implementation details** **Inter-thread communication.** * We use a static, lock-free ring buffer of fixed size (2048 jobs) for the main thread to send jobs and for the IO to receive them. If the ring buffer fills up, the main thread will handle the task itself, acting as back pressure (in case IO operations are more expensive than command processing). A static ring buffer is a better candidate than a dynamic job queue as it eliminates the need for allocation/freeing per job. * An IO job will be in the format: ` [void* function-call-back | void *data] `where data is either a client to read/write from and the function-ptr is the function to be called with the data for example readQueryFromClient using this format we can use it later to offload other types of works to the IO threads. * The Ring buffer is one way from the main-thread to the IO thread, Upon read/write event the main thread will send a read/write job then in before sleep it will iterate over the pending read/write clients to checking for each client if the IO threads has already finished handling it. The IO thread signals it has finished handling a client read/write by toggling an atomic flag read_state / write_state on the client struct. **Thread Safety** As suggested in this solution, the IO threads are reading from and writing to the clients' buffers while the main thread may access those clients. We must ensure no race conditions or unsafe access occurs while keeping the Valkey code simple and lock free. Minimal Action in the IO Threads The main change is to limit the IO thread operations to the bare minimum. The IO thread will access only the client's struct and only the necessary fields in this struct. The IO threads will be responsible for the following: * Read Operation: The IO thread will only read and parse a single command. It will not update the server stats, handle read errors, or parsing errors. These tasks will be taken care of by the main thread. * Write Operation: The IO thread will only write the available data. It will not free the client's replies, handle write errors, or update the server statistics. To achieve this without code duplication, the read/write code has been refactored into smaller, independent components: * Functions that perform only the read/parse/write calls. * Functions that handle the read/parse/write results. This refactor accounts for the majority of the modifications in this PR. **Client Struct Safe Access** As we ensure that the IO threads access memory only within the client struct, we need to ensure thread safety only for the client's struct's shared fields. * Query Buffer * Command parsing - The main thread will not try to parse a command from the query buffer when a client is offloaded to the IO thread. * Client's memory checks in client-cron - The main thread will not access the client query buffer if it is offloaded and will handle the querybuf grow/shrink when the client is back. * CLIENT LIST command - The main thread will busy-wait for the IO thread to finish handling the client, falling back to the current behavior where the main thread waits for the IO thread to finish their processing. * Output Buffer * The IO thread will not change the client's bufpos and won't free the client's reply lists. These actions will be done by the main thread on the client's return from the IO thread. * bufpos / block→used: As the main thread may change the bufpos, the reply-block→used, or add/delete blocks to the reply list while the IO thread writes, we add two fields to the client struct: io_last_bufpos and io_last_reply_block. The IO thread will write until the io_last_bufpos, which was set by the main-thread before sending the client to the IO thread. If more data has been added to the cob in between, it will be written in the next write-job. In addition, the main thread will not trim or merge reply blocks while the client is offloaded. * Parsing Fields * Client's cmd, argc, argv, reqtype, etc., are set during parsing. * The main thread will indicate to the IO thread not to parse a cmd if the client is not reset. In this case, the IO thread will only read from the network and won't attempt to parse a new command. * The main thread won't access the c→cmd/c→argv in the CLIENT LIST command as stated before it will busy wait for the IO threads. * Client Flags * c→flags, which may be changed by the main thread in multiple places, won't be accessed by the IO thread. Instead, the main thread will set the c→io_flags with the information necessary for the IO thread to know the client's state. * Client Close * On freeClient, the main thread will busy wait for the IO thread to finish processing the client's read/write before proceeding to free the client. * Client's Memory Limits * The IO thread won't handle the qb/cob limits. In case a client crosses the qb limit, the IO thread will stop reading for it, letting the main thread know that the client crossed the limit. **TLS** TLS is currently not supported with IO threads for the following reasons: 1. Pending reads - If SSL has pending data that has already been read from the socket, there is a risk of not calling the read handler again. To handle this, a list is used to hold the pending clients. With IO threads, multiple threads can access the list concurrently. 2. Event loop modification - Currently, the TLS code registers/unregisters the file descriptor from the event loop depending on the read/write results. With IO threads, multiple threads can modify the event loop struct simultaneously. 3. The same client can be sent to 2 different threads concurrently (https://github.com/redis/redis/issues/12540). Those issues were handled in the current PR: 1. The IO thread only performs the read operation. The main thread will check for pending reads after the client returns from the IO thread and will be the only one to access the pending list. 2. The registering/unregistering of events will be similarly postponed and handled by the main thread only. 3. Each client is being sent to the same dedicated thread (c→id % num_of_threads). **Sending Replies Immediately with IO threads.** Currently, after processing a command, we add the client to the pending_writes_list. Only after processing all the clients do we send all the replies. Since the IO threads are now working asynchronously, we can send the reply immediately after processing the client’s requests, reducing the command latency. However, if we are using AOF=always, we must wait for the AOF buffer to be written, in which case we revert to the current behavior. **IO threads dynamic adjustment** Currently, we use an all-or-nothing approach when activating the IO threads. The current logic is as follows: if the number of pending write clients is greater than twice the number of threads (including the main thread), we enable all threads; otherwise, we enable none. For example, if 8 IO threads are defined, we enable all 8 threads if there are 16 pending clients; else, we enable none. It makes more sense to enable partial activation of the IO threads. If we have 10 pending clients, we will enable 5 threads, and so on. This approach allows for a more granular and efficient allocation of resources based on the current workload. In addition, the user will now be able to change the number of I/O threads at runtime. For example, when decreasing the number of threads from 4 to 2, threads 3 and 4 will be closed after flushing their job queues. **Tests** Currently, we run the io-threads tests with 4 IO threads (https://github.com/valkey-io/valkey/blob/443d80f1686377ad42cbf92d98ecc6d240325ee1/.github/workflows/daily.yml#L353). This means that we will not activate the IO threads unless there are 8 (threads * 2) pending write clients per single loop, which is unlikely to happened in most of tests, meaning the IO threads are not currently being tested. To enforce the main thread to always offload work to the IO threads, regardless of the number of pending events, we add an events-per-io-thread configuration with a default value of 2. When set to 0, this configuration will force the main thread to always offload work to the IO threads. When we offload every single read/write operation to the IO threads, the IO-threads are running with 100% CPU when running multiple tests concurrently some tests fail as a result of larger than expected command latencies. To address this issue, we have to add some after or wait_for calls to some of the tests to ensure they pass with IO threads as well. Signed-off-by: Uri Yagelnik <uriy@amazon.com>

Client eviction (#8687) ### Description A mechanism for disconnecting clients when the sum of all connected clients is above a configured limit. This prevents eviction or OOM caused by accumulated used memory between all clients. It's a complimentary mechanism to the `client-output-buffer-limit` mechanism which takes into account not only a single client and not only output buffers but rather all memory used by all clients. #### Design The general design is as following: * We track memory usage of each client, taking into account all memory used by the client (query buffer, output buffer, parsed arguments, etc...). This is kept up to date after reading from the socket, after processing commands and after writing to the socket. * Based on the used memory we sort all clients into buckets. Each bucket contains all clients using up up to x2 memory of the clients in the bucket below it. For example up to 1m clients, up to 2m clients, up to 4m clients, ... * Before processing a command and before sleep we check if we're over the configured limit. If we are we start disconnecting clients from larger buckets downwards until we're under the limit. #### Config `maxmemory-clients` max memory all clients are allowed to consume, above this threshold we disconnect clients. This config can either be set to 0 (meaning no limit), a size in bytes (possibly with MB/GB suffix), or as a percentage of `maxmemory` by using the `%` suffix (e.g. setting it to `10%` would mean 10% of `maxmemory`). #### Important code changes * During the development I encountered yet more situations where our io-threads access global vars. And needed to fix them. I also had to handle keeps the clients sorted into the memory buckets (which are global) while their memory usage changes in the io-thread. To achieve this I decided to simplify how we check if we're in an io-thread and make it much more explicit. I removed the `CLIENT_PENDING_READ` flag used for checking if the client is in an io-thread (it wasn't used for anything else) and just used the global `io_threads_op` variable the same way to check during writes. * I optimized the cleanup of the client from the `clients_pending_read` list on client freeing. We now store a pointer in the `client` struct to this list so we don't need to search in it (`pending_read_list_node`). * Added `evicted_clients` stat to `INFO` command. * Added `CLIENT NO-EVICT ON|OFF` sub command to exclude a specific client from the client eviction mechanism. Added corrosponding 'e' flag in the client info string. * Added `multi-mem` field in the client info string to show how much memory is used up by buffered multi commands. * Client `tot-mem` now accounts for buffered multi-commands, pubsub patterns and channels (partially), tracking prefixes (partially). * CLIENT_CLOSE_ASAP flag is now handled in a new `beforeNextClient()` function so clients will be disconnected between processing different clients and not only before sleep. This new function can be used in the future for work we want to do outside the command processing loop but don't want to wait for all clients to be processed before we get to it. Specifically I wanted to handle output-buffer-limit related closing before we process client eviction in case the two race with each other. * Added a `DEBUG CLIENT-EVICTION` command to print out info about the client eviction buckets. * Each client now holds a pointer to the client eviction memory usage bucket it belongs to and listNode to itself in that bucket for quick removal. * Global `io_threads_op` variable now can contain a `IO_THREADS_OP_IDLE` value indicating no io-threading is currently being executed. * In order to track memory used by each clients in real-time we can't rely on updating these stats in `clientsCron()` alone anymore. So now I call `updateClientMemUsage()` (used to be `clientsCronTrackClientsMemUsage()`) after command processing, after writing data to pubsub clients, after writing the output buffer and after reading from the socket (and maybe other places too). The function is written to be fast. * Clients are evicted if needed (with appropriate log line) in `beforeSleep()` and before processing a command (before performing oom-checks and key-eviction). * All clients memory usage buckets are grouped as follows: * All clients using less than 64k. * 64K..128K * 128K..256K * ... * 2G..4G * All clients using 4g and up. * Added client-eviction.tcl with a bunch of tests for the new mechanism. * Extended maxmemory.tcl to test the interaction between maxmemory and maxmemory-clients settings. * Added an option to flag a numeric configuration variable as a "percent", this means that if we encounter a '%' after the number in the config file (or config set command) we consider it as valid. Such a number is store internally as a negative value. This way an integer value can be interpreted as either a percent (negative) or absolute value (positive). This is useful for example if some numeric configuration can optionally be set to a percentage of something else. Co-authored-by: Oran Agra <oran@redislabs.com>

Client eviction (#8687) ### Description A mechanism for disconnecting clients when the sum of all connected clients is above a configured limit. This prevents eviction or OOM caused by accumulated used memory between all clients. It's a complimentary mechanism to the `client-output-buffer-limit` mechanism which takes into account not only a single client and not only output buffers but rather all memory used by all clients. #### Design The general design is as following: * We track memory usage of each client, taking into account all memory used by the client (query buffer, output buffer, parsed arguments, etc...). This is kept up to date after reading from the socket, after processing commands and after writing to the socket. * Based on the used memory we sort all clients into buckets. Each bucket contains all clients using up up to x2 memory of the clients in the bucket below it. For example up to 1m clients, up to 2m clients, up to 4m clients, ... * Before processing a command and before sleep we check if we're over the configured limit. If we are we start disconnecting clients from larger buckets downwards until we're under the limit. #### Config `maxmemory-clients` max memory all clients are allowed to consume, above this threshold we disconnect clients. This config can either be set to 0 (meaning no limit), a size in bytes (possibly with MB/GB suffix), or as a percentage of `maxmemory` by using the `%` suffix (e.g. setting it to `10%` would mean 10% of `maxmemory`). #### Important code changes * During the development I encountered yet more situations where our io-threads access global vars. And needed to fix them. I also had to handle keeps the clients sorted into the memory buckets (which are global) while their memory usage changes in the io-thread. To achieve this I decided to simplify how we check if we're in an io-thread and make it much more explicit. I removed the `CLIENT_PENDING_READ` flag used for checking if the client is in an io-thread (it wasn't used for anything else) and just used the global `io_threads_op` variable the same way to check during writes. * I optimized the cleanup of the client from the `clients_pending_read` list on client freeing. We now store a pointer in the `client` struct to this list so we don't need to search in it (`pending_read_list_node`). * Added `evicted_clients` stat to `INFO` command. * Added `CLIENT NO-EVICT ON|OFF` sub command to exclude a specific client from the client eviction mechanism. Added corrosponding 'e' flag in the client info string. * Added `multi-mem` field in the client info string to show how much memory is used up by buffered multi commands. * Client `tot-mem` now accounts for buffered multi-commands, pubsub patterns and channels (partially), tracking prefixes (partially). * CLIENT_CLOSE_ASAP flag is now handled in a new `beforeNextClient()` function so clients will be disconnected between processing different clients and not only before sleep. This new function can be used in the future for work we want to do outside the command processing loop but don't want to wait for all clients to be processed before we get to it. Specifically I wanted to handle output-buffer-limit related closing before we process client eviction in case the two race with each other. * Added a `DEBUG CLIENT-EVICTION` command to print out info about the client eviction buckets. * Each client now holds a pointer to the client eviction memory usage bucket it belongs to and listNode to itself in that bucket for quick removal. * Global `io_threads_op` variable now can contain a `IO_THREADS_OP_IDLE` value indicating no io-threading is currently being executed. * In order to track memory used by each clients in real-time we can't rely on updating these stats in `clientsCron()` alone anymore.

introduce dynamic client reply buffer size - save memory on idle clients (#9822) Current implementation simple idle client which serves no traffic still use ~17Kb of memory. this is mainly due to a fixed size reply buffer currently set to 16kb. We have encountered some cases in which the server operates in a low memory environments. In such cases a user who wishes to create large connection pools to support potential burst period, will exhaust a large amount of memory to maintain connected Idle clients. Some users may choose to "sacrifice" performance in order to save memory. This commit introduce a dynamic mechanism to shrink and expend the client reply buffer based on periodic observed peak. the algorithm works as follows: 1. each time a client reply buffer has been fully written, the last recorded peak is updated: new peak = MAX( last peak, current written size) 2. during clients cron we check for each client if the last observed peak was: a. matching the current buffer size - in which case we expend (resize) the buffer size by 100% b. less than half the buffer size - in which case we shrink the buffer size by 50% 3. In any case we will **not** resize the buffer in case: a. the current buffer peak is less then the current buffer usable size and higher than 1/2 the current buffer usable size b. the value of (current buffer usable size/2) is less than 1Kib c. the value of (current buffer usable size*2) is larger than 16Kib 4. the peak value is reset to the current buffer position once every **5** seconds. we maintain a new field in the client structure (buf_peak_last_reset_time) which is used to keep track of how long it passed since the last buffer peak reset. ### **Interface changes:** **CIENT LIST** - now contains 2 new extra fields: rbs= < the current size in bytes of the client reply buffer > rbp=< the current value in bytes of the last observed buffer peak position > **INFO STATS** - now contains 2 new statistics: reply_buffer_shrinks = < total number of buffer shrinks performed > reply_buffer_expends = < total number of buffer expends performed > Co-authored-by: Oran Agra <oran@redislabs.com> Co-authored-by: Yoav Steinberg <yoav@redislabs.com>

Added corrosponding 'e' flag in the client info string. * Added `multi-mem` field in the client info string to show how much memory is used up by buffered multi commands. * Client `tot-mem` now accounts for buffered multi-commands, pubsub patterns and channels (partially), tracking prefixes (partially). * CLIENT_CLOSE_ASAP flag is now handled in a new `beforeNextClient()` function so clients will be disconnected between processing different clients and not only before sleep. This new function can be used in the future for work we want to do outside the command processing loop but don't want to wait for all clients to be processed before we get to it.

Client eviction (#8687) ### Description A mechanism for disconnecting clients when the sum of all connected clients is above a configured limit. This prevents eviction or OOM caused by accumulated used memory between all clients. It's a complimentary mechanism to the `client-output-buffer-limit` mechanism which takes into account not only a single client and not only output buffers but rather all memory used by all clients. #### Design The general design is as following: * We track memory usage of each client, taking into account all memory used by the client (query buffer, output buffer, parsed arguments, etc...). This is kept up to date after reading from the socket, after processing commands and after writing to the socket. * Based on the used memory we sort all clients into buckets. Each bucket contains all clients using up up to x2 memory of the clients in the bucket below it. For example up to 1m clients, up to 2m clients, up to 4m clients, ... * Before processing a command and before sleep we check if we're over the configured limit. If we are we start disconnecting clients from larger buckets downwards until we're under the limit. #### Config `maxmemory-clients` max memory all clients are allowed to consume, above this threshold we disconnect clients.

This new function can be used in the future for work we want to do outside the command processing loop but don't want to wait for all clients to be processed before we get to it. Specifically I wanted to handle output-buffer-limit related closing before we process client eviction in case the two race with each other. * Added a `DEBUG CLIENT-EVICTION` command to print out info about the client eviction buckets. * Each client now holds a pointer to the client eviction memory usage bucket it belongs to and listNode to itself in that bucket for quick removal. * Global `io_threads_op` variable now can contain a `IO_THREADS_OP_IDLE` value indicating no io-threading is currently being executed. * In order to track memory used by each clients in real-time we can't rely on updating these stats in `clientsCron()` alone anymore. So now I call `updateClientMemUsage()` (used to be `clientsCronTrackClientsMemUsage()`) after command processing, after writing data to pubsub clients, after writing the output buffer and after reading from the socket (and maybe other places too). The function is written to be fast. * Clients are evicted if needed (with appropriate log line) in `beforeSleep()` and before processing a command (before performing oom-checks and key-eviction). * All clients memory usage buckets are grouped as follows: * All clients using less than 64k. * 64K..128K * 128K..256K * ... * 2G..4G * All clients using 4g and up. * Added client-eviction.tcl with a bunch of tests for the new mechanism. * Extended maxmemory.tcl to test the interaction between maxmemory and maxmemory-clients settings. * Added an option to flag a numeric configuration variable as a "percent", this means that if we encounter a '%' after the number in the config file (or config set command) we consider it as valid.

Client eviction (#8687) ### Description A mechanism for disconnecting clients when the sum of all connected clients is above a configured limit. This prevents eviction or OOM caused by accumulated used memory between all clients. It's a complimentary mechanism to the `client-output-buffer-limit` mechanism which takes into account not only a single client and not only output buffers but rather all memory used by all clients. #### Design The general design is as following: * We track memory usage of each client, taking into account all memory used by the client (query buffer, output buffer, parsed arguments, etc...). This is kept up to date after reading from the socket, after processing commands and after writing to the socket. * Based on the used memory we sort all clients into buckets. Each bucket contains all clients using up up to x2 memory of the clients in the bucket below it. For example up to 1m clients, up to 2m clients, up to 4m clients, ... * Before processing a command and before sleep we check if we're over the configured limit. If we are we start disconnecting clients from larger buckets downwards until we're under the limit. #### Config `maxmemory-clients` max memory all clients are allowed to consume, above this threshold we disconnect clients. This config can either be set to 0 (meaning no limit), a size in bytes (possibly with MB/GB suffix), or as a percentage of `maxmemory` by using the `%` suffix (e.g. setting it to `10%` would mean 10% of `maxmemory`). #### Important code changes * During the development I encountered yet more situations where our io-threads access global vars. And needed to fix them. I also had to handle keeps the clients sorted into the memory buckets (which are global) while their memory usage changes in the io-thread. To achieve this I decided to simplify how we check if we're in an io-thread and make it much more explicit. I removed the `CLIENT_PENDING_READ` flag used for checking if the client is in an io-thread (it wasn't used for anything else) and just used the global `io_threads_op` variable the same way to check during writes. * I optimized the cleanup of the client from the `clients_pending_read` list on client freeing. We now store a pointer in the `client` struct to this list so we don't need to search in it (`pending_read_list_node`). * Added `evicted_clients` stat to `INFO` command. * Added `CLIENT NO-EVICT ON|OFF` sub command to exclude a specific client from the client eviction mechanism.

introduce dynamic client reply buffer size - save memory on idle clients (#9822) Current implementation simple idle client which serves no traffic still use ~17Kb of memory. this is mainly due to a fixed size reply buffer currently set to 16kb. We have encountered some cases in which the server operates in a low memory environments. In such cases a user who wishes to create large connection pools to support potential burst period, will exhaust a large amount of memory to maintain connected Idle clients. Some users may choose to "sacrifice" performance in order to save memory. This commit introduce a dynamic mechanism to shrink and expend the client reply buffer based on periodic observed peak. the algorithm works as follows: 1. each time a client reply buffer has been fully written, the last recorded peak is updated: new peak = MAX( last peak, current written size) 2. during clients cron we check for each client if the last observed peak was: a. matching the current buffer size - in which case we expend (resize) the buffer size by 100% b. less than half the buffer size - in which case we shrink the buffer size by 50% 3. In any case we will **not** resize the buffer in case: a. the current buffer peak is less then the current buffer usable size and higher than 1/2 the current buffer usable size b. the value of (current buffer usable size/2) is less than 1Kib c. the value of (current buffer usable size*2) is larger than 16Kib 4. the peak value is reset to the current buffer position once every **5** seconds. we maintain a new field in the client structure (buf_peak_last_reset_time) which is used to keep track of how long it passed since the last buffer peak reset. ### **Interface changes:** **CIENT LIST** - now contains 2 new extra fields: rbs= < the current size in bytes of the client reply buffer > rbp=< the current value in bytes of the last observed buffer peak position > **INFO STATS** - now contains 2 new statistics: reply_buffer_shrinks = < total number of buffer shrinks performed > reply_buffer_expends = < total number of buffer expends performed > Co-authored-by: Oran Agra <oran@redislabs.com> Co-authored-by: Yoav Steinberg <yoav@redislabs.com>

Client eviction (#8687) ### Description A mechanism for disconnecting clients when the sum of all connected clients is above a configured limit. This prevents eviction or OOM caused by accumulated used memory between all clients. It's a complimentary mechanism to the `client-output-buffer-limit` mechanism which takes into account not only a single client and not only output buffers but rather all memory used by all clients. #### Design The general design is as following: * We track memory usage of each client, taking into account all memory used by the client (query buffer, output buffer, parsed arguments, etc...). This is kept up to date after reading from the socket, after processing commands and after writing to the socket. * Based on the used memory we sort all clients into buckets. Each bucket contains all clients using up up to x2 memory of the clients in the bucket below it. For example up to 1m clients, up to 2m clients, up to 4m clients, ... * Before processing a command and before sleep we check if we're over the configured limit. If we are we start disconnecting clients from larger buckets downwards until we're under the limit. #### Config `maxmemory-clients` max memory all clients are allowed to consume, above this threshold we disconnect clients. This config can either be set to 0 (meaning no limit), a size in bytes (possibly with MB/GB suffix), or as a percentage of `maxmemory` by using the `%` suffix (e.g. setting it to `10%` would mean 10% of `maxmemory`). #### Important code changes * During the development I encountered yet more situations where our io-threads access global vars. And needed to fix them. I also had to handle keeps the clients sorted into the memory buckets (which are global) while their memory usage changes in the io-thread. To achieve this I decided to simplify how we check if we're in an io-thread and make it much more explicit. I removed the `CLIENT_PENDING_READ` flag used for checking if the client is in an io-thread (it wasn't used for anything else) and just used the global `io_threads_op` variable the same way to check during writes. * I optimized the cleanup of the client from the `clients_pending_read` list on client freeing. We now store a pointer in the `client` struct to this list so we don't need to search in it (`pending_read_list_node`). * Added `evicted_clients` stat to `INFO` command. * Added `CLIENT NO-EVICT ON|OFF` sub command to exclude a specific client from the client eviction mechanism. Added corrosponding 'e' flag in the client info string. * Added `multi-mem` field in the client info string to show how much memory is used up by buffered multi commands. * Client `tot-mem` now accounts for buffered multi-commands, pubsub patterns and channels (partially), tracking prefixes (partially). * CLIENT_CLOSE_ASAP flag is now handled in a new `beforeNextClient()` function so clients will be disconnected between processing different clients and not only before sleep. This new function can be used in the future for work we want to do outside the command processing loop but don't want to wait for all clients to be processed before we get to it. Specifically I wanted to handle output-buffer-limit related closing before we process client eviction in case the two race with each other. * Added a `DEBUG CLIENT-EVICTION` command to print out info about the client eviction buckets. * Each client now holds a pointer to the client eviction memory usage bucket it belongs to and listNode to itself in that bucket for quick removal. * Global `io_threads_op` variable now can contain a `IO_THREADS_OP_IDLE` value indicating no io-threading is currently being executed. * In order to track memory used by each clients in real-time we can't rely on updating these stats in `clientsCron()` alone anymore. So now I call `updateClientMemUsage()` (used to be `clientsCronTrackClientsMemUsage()`) after command processing, after writing data to pubsub clients, after writing the output buffer and after reading from the socket (and maybe other places too). The function is written to be fast. * Clients are evicted if needed (with appropriate log line) in `beforeSleep()` and before processing a command (before performing oom-checks and key-eviction). * All clients memory usage buckets are grouped as follows: * All clients using less than 64k. * 64K..128K * 128K..256K * ... * 2G..4G * All clients using 4g and up. * Added client-eviction.tcl with a bunch of tests for the new mechanism. * Extended maxmemory.tcl to test the interaction between maxmemory and maxmemory-clients settings. * Added an option to flag a numeric configuration variable as a "percent", this means that if we encounter a '%' after the number in the config file (or config set command) we consider it as valid.

This is useful for example if some numeric configuration can optionally be set to a percentage of something else. Co-authored-by: Oran Agra <oran@redislabs.com>
