Georadius works by computing the center + neighbors squares covering all
the area of the specified position and radius. Then a distance filter is
used to remove elements which are actually outside the range.
When a huge radius is used, like 5000 km or more, adjacent neighbors may
collide and be the same, leading to the reporting of the same element
multiple times. This only happens in the edge case of huge radius but is
not ideal.
A robust but slow solution would involve qsorting the range to remove
all the duplicates. However since the collisions are only in adjacent
boxes, for the way they are ordered in the code, it is much faster to
just check if the current box is the same as the previous one processed.
This commit adds a regression test for the bug.
Fixes#2767.
MOVE was not able to move the TTL: when a key was moved into a different
database number, it became persistent like if PERSIST was used.
In some incredible way (I guess almost nobody uses Redis MOVE) this bug
remained unnoticed inside Redis internals for many years.
Finally Andy Grunwald discovered it and opened an issue.
This commit fixes the bug and adds a regression test.
Close#2765.
This additional info may provide more clues about the test randomly
failing from time to time. Probably the failure is due to some previous
test that overwrites the logical content in the Tcl variable, but this
will make the problem more obvious.
Rationale:
1. The commands look like internals exposed without a real strong use
case.
2. Whatever there is an use case, the client would implement the
commands client side instead of paying RTT just to use a simple to
reimplement library.
3. They add complexity to an otherwise quite straightforward API.
So for now KILLED ;-)
The GIS standard and all the major DBs implementing GIS related
functions take coordinates as x,y that is longitude,latitude.
It was a bad start for Redis to do things differently, so even if this
means that existing users of the Geo module will be required to change
their code, Redis now conforms to the standard.
Usually Redis is very backward compatible, but this is not an exception
to this rule, since this is the first Geo implementation entering the
official Redis source code. It is not wise to try to be backward
compatible with code forks... :-)
Close#2637.
We set random points in the world, pick a random position, and check if
the returned points by Redis match the ones computed by Tcl by brute
forcing all the points using the distance between two points formula.
This approach is sounding since immediately resulted in finding a bug in
the original implementation.
Current todo:
- replace functions in zset.{c,h} with a new unified Redis
zset access API.
Once we get the zset interface fixed, we can squash
relevant commits in this branch and have one nice commit
to merge into unstable.
This commit adds:
- Geo commands
- Tests; runnable with: ./runtest --single unit/geo
- Geo helpers in deps/geohash-int/
- src/geo.{c,h} and src/geojson.{c,h} implementing geo commands
- Updated build configurations to get everything working
- TEMPORARY: src/zset.{c,h} implementing zset score and zset
range reading without writing to client output buffers.
- Modified linkage of one t_zset.c function for use in zset.c
Conflicts:

1. HVSTRLEN -> HSTRLEN. It's unlikely one needs the length of the key,
not clear how the API would work (by value does not make sense) and
there will be better names anyway.
2. Default is to return 0 when field is missing.
3. Default is to return 0 when key is missing.
4. The implementation was slower than needed, and produced unnecessary COW.
Related issue #2415.
This test on Linux was extremely slow, since in Tcl we can't enable
easily tcp-nodelay, so the busy loop used to take *a lot* with bigger
writes. Fixed using pipelining.
