RESTORE now supports:
1. Setting LRU/LFU
2. Absolute-time TTL
Other related changes:
1. RDB loading will not override LRU bits when RDB file
does not contain the LRU opcode.
2. RDB loading will not set LRU/LFU bits if the server's
maxmemory-policy does not match.
This way we let big endian systems to still load old RDB versions.
However newver versions will be saved and loaded in a way that make RDB
expires cross-endian again. Thanks to @oranagra for the reporting and
the discussion about this problem, leading to this fix.
Again thanks to @oranagra. The object idle time does not fit into an int
sometimes: use the native type that the serialization function will get
as argument, which is uint64_t.
The AOF tail of a combined RDB+AOF is based on the premise of applying
the AOF commands to the exact state that there was in the server while
the RDB was persisted. By expiring keys while loading the RDB file, we
change the state, so applying the AOF tail later may change the state.
Test case:
* Time1: SET a 10
* Time2: EXPIREAT a $time5
* Time3: INCR a
* Time4: PERSIT A. Start bgrewiteaof with RDB preamble. The value of a is 11 without expire time.
* Time5: Restart redis from the RDB+AOF: consistency violation.
Thanks to @soloestoy for providing the patch.
Thanks to @trevor211 for the original issue report and the initial fix.
Check issue #4950 for more info.
Some times it was not released on error, sometimes it was released two
times because the error path expected the "di" var to be NULL if the
iterator was already released. Thanks to @oranagra for pinging me about
potential problems of this kind inside rdb.c.
This is a big win for caching use cases, since on reloading Redis will
still have some idea about what is worth to evict and what not.
However this only solves part of the problem because the information is
only partially propagated to slaves (on write operations). Reads will
not affect slaves LFU and LRU counters, so after a failover the eviction
decisions are kinda random until keys start to collect some aging/freq info.
However since new slaves are initially populated via RDB file transfer,
this means that if we spin up a new slave from a master, and perform an
immediate manual failover (for instance in order to upgrade the master),
the slave will have eviction informations to use for some time.
The LFU/LRU info is persisted only if the maxmemory policy is set to one
of the relevant type, even if no actual "maxmemory" memory limit is
set.
- protocol parsing (processMultibulkBuffer) was limitted to 32big positions in the buffer
readQueryFromClient potential overflow
- rioWriteBulkCount used int, although rioWriteBulkString gave it size_t
- several places in sds.c that used int for string length or index.
- bugfix in RM_SaveAuxField (return was 1 or -1 and not length)
- RM_SaveStringBuffer was limitted to 32bit length
The function in its initial form, and after the fixes for the PSYNC2
bugs, required code duplication in multiple spots. This commit modifies
it in order to always compute the script name independently, and to
return the SDS of the SHA of the body: this way it can be used in all
the places, including for SCRIPT LOAD, without duplicating the code to
create the Lua function name. Note that this requires to re-compute the
body SHA1 in the case of EVAL seeing a script for the first time, but
this should not change scripting performance in any way because new
scripts definition is a rare event happening the first time a script is
seen, and the SHA1 computation is anyway not a very slow process against
the typical Redis script and compared to the actua Lua byte compiling of
the body.
Note that the function used to assert() if a duplicated script was
loaded, however actually now two times over three, we want the function
to handle duplicated scripts just fine: this happens in SCRIPT LOAD and
in RDB AUX "lua" loading. Moreover the assert was not defending against
some obvious failure mode, so now the function always tests against
already defined functions at start.
In the case of slaves loading the RDB from master, or in other similar
cases, the script is already defined, and the function registering the
script should not fail in the assert() call.
We used to have the master ID stored at the start of the listpack,
however using the key directly makes more sense in order to create a
space efficient representation: anyway the key at the radix tree is very
unlikely to change because of how the stream is implemented. Moreover on
nodes merging, to rewrite the merged listpacks is anyway the most
sensible operation, and we can use the iterator and the append-to-stream
function in order to avoid re-implementing the code needed for merging.
This commit also adds two items at the start of the listpack: the
number of valid items inside the listpack, and the number of items
marked as deleted. This means that there is no need to scan a listpack
in order to understand if it's a good candidate for garbage collection,
if the ration between valid/deleted items triggers the GC.
After a few attempts it looked quite saner to just add the last item ID
at the end of the serialized listpacks, instead of scanning the last
listpack loaded from head to tail just to fetch it. It's a disk space VS
CPU-and-simplicity tradeoff basically.
Related to #4483. As suggested by @soloestoy, we can retrieve the SHA1
from the body. Given that in the new implementation using AUX fields we
ended copying around a lot to create new objects and strings, extremize
such concept and trade CPU for space inside the RDB file.
This is currently needed in order to fix#4483, but this can be
useful in other contexts, so maybe later we may want to remove the
conditionals and always save/load scripts.
Note that we are using the "lua" AUX field here, in order to guarantee
backward compatibility of the RDB file. The unknown AUX fields must be
discarded by past versions of Redis.
Normally in modern Redis you can't create zero-len lists, however it's
possible to load them from old RDB files generated, for instance, using
Redis 2.8 (see issue #4409). The "Right Thing" would be not loading such
lists at all, but this requires to hook in rdb.c random places in a not
great way, for a problem that is at this point, at best, minor.
Here in this commit instead I just fix the fact that zero length lists,
materialized as quicklists with the first node set to NULL, were
iterated in the wrong way while they are saved, leading to a crash.
The other parts of the list implementation are apparently able to deal
with empty lists correctly, even if they are no longer a thing.
This commit is a reinforcement of commit af78ec8.
1. Replication information can be stored when the RDB file is
generated by a mater using server.slaveseldb when server.repl_backlog
is not NULL, or set repl_stream_db be -1. That's safe, because
NULL server.repl_backlog will trigger full synchronization,
then master will send SELECT command to replicaiton stream.
2. Only do rdbSave* when rsiptr is not NULL,
if we do rdbSave* without rdbSaveInfo, slave will miss repl-stream-db.
3. Save the replication informations also in the case of
SAVE command, FLUSHALL command and DEBUG reload.
This commit attempts to fix a number of bugs reported in #4316.
They are related to the way replication info like replication ID,
offsets, and currently selected DB in the master client, are stored
and loaded by Redis. In order to avoid inconsistencies the changes in
this commit try to enforce that:
1. Replication information are only stored when the RDB file is
generated by a slave that has a valid 'master' client, so that we can
always extract the currently selected DB.
2. When replication informations are persisted in the RDB file, all the
info for a successful PSYNC or nothing is persisted.
3. The RDB replication informations are only loaded if the instance is
configured as a slave, otherwise a master can start with IDs that relate
to a different history of the data set, and stil retain such IDs in the
future while receiving unrelated writes.
The original RDB serialization format was not parsable without the
module loaded, becuase the structure was managed only by the module
itself. Moreover RDB is a streaming protocol in the sense that it is
both produce di an append-only fashion, and is also sometimes directly
sent to the socket (in the case of diskless replication).
The fact that modules values cannot be parsed without the relevant
module loaded is a problem in many ways: RDB checking tools must have
loaded modules even for doing things not involving the value at all,
like splitting an RDB into N RDBs by key or alike, or just checking the
RDB for sanity.
In theory module values could be just a blob of data with a prefixed
length in order for us to be able to skip it. However prefixing the values
with a length would mean one of the following:
1. To be able to write some data at a previous offset. This breaks
stremaing.
2. To bufferize values before outputting them. This breaks performances.
3. To have some chunked RDB output format. This breaks simplicity.
Moreover, the above solution, still makes module values a totally opaque
matter, with the fowllowing problems:
1. The RDB check tool can just skip the value without being able to at
least check the general structure. For datasets composed mostly of
modules values this means to just check the outer level of the RDB not
actually doing any checko on most of the data itself.
2. It is not possible to do any recovering or processing of data for which a
module no longer exists in the future, or is unknown.
So this commit implements a different solution. The modules RDB
serialization API is composed if well defined calls to store integers,
floats, doubles or strings. After this commit, the parts generated by
the module API have a one-byte prefix for each of the above emitted
parts, and there is a final EOF byte as well. So even if we don't know
exactly how to interpret a module value, we can always parse it at an
high level, check the overall structure, understand the types used to
store the information, and easily skip the whole value.
The change is backward compatible: older RDB files can be still loaded
since the new encoding has a new RDB type: MODULE_2 (of value 7).
The commit also implements the ability to check RDB files for sanity
taking advantage of the new feature.
