After a closer look, the Redis core devleopers all believe that this was
too fragile, caused many bugs that we didn't expect and that were very
hard to track. Better to find an alternative solution that is simpler.
Otherwise we run into that:

Since we disconnect all the replicas and free the replication backlog in
certain replication paths, and the code that will free the replication
backlog expects that no replica is connected.
However we still need to free the replicas asynchronously in certain
cases, as documented in the top comment of disconnectSlaves().
The context is issue #7205: since the introduction of threaded I/O we close
clients asynchronously by default from readQueryFromClient(). So we
should no longer prevent the caching of the master client, to later
PSYNC incrementally, if such flags are set. However we also don't want
the master client to be cached with such flags (would be closed
immediately after being restored). And yet we want a way to understand
if a master was closed because of a protocol error, and in that case
prevent the caching.
This works because this struct is never referenced by its name,
but always by its type.
This prevents a conflict with struct user from <sys/user.h>
when compiling against uclibc.

Currently, there are several types of threads/child processes of a
redis server. Sometimes we need deeply optimise the performance of
redis, so we would like to isolate threads/processes.
There were some discussion about cpu affinity cases in the issue:
https://github.com/antirez/redis/issues/2863
So implement cpu affinity setting by redis.conf in this patch, then
we can config server_cpulist/bio_cpulist/aof_rewrite_cpulist/
bgsave_cpulist by cpu list.
Examples of cpulist in redis.conf:
server_cpulist 0-7:2 means cpu affinity 0,2,4,6
bio_cpulist 1,3 means cpu affinity 1,3
aof_rewrite_cpulist 8-11 means cpu affinity 8,9,10,11
bgsave_cpulist 1,10-11 means cpu affinity 1,10,11
Test on linux/freebsd, both work fine.

Now both master and replicas keep track of the last replication offset
that contains meaningful data (ignoring the tailing pings), and both
trim that tail from the replication backlog, and the offset with which
they try to use for psync.
the implication is that if someone missed some pings, or even have
excessive pings that the promoted replica has, it'll still be able to
psync (avoid full sync).
the downside (which was already committed) is that replicas running old
code may fail to psync, since the promoted replica trims pings form it's
backlog.
This commit adds a test that reproduces several cases of promotions and
demotions with stale and non-stale pings
Background:
The mearningful offset on the master was added recently to solve a problem were
the master is left all alone, injecting PINGs into it's backlog when no one is
listening and then gets demoted and tries to replicate from a replica that didn't
have any of the PINGs (or at least not the last ones).
however, consider this case:
master A has two replicas (B and C) replicating directly from it.
there's no traffic at all, and also no network issues, just many pings in the
tail of the backlog. now B gets promoted, A becomes a replica of B, and C
remains a replica of A. when A gets demoted, it trims the pings from its
backlog, and successfully replicate from B. however, C is still aware of
these PINGs, when it'll disconnect and re-connect to A, it'll ask for something
that's not in the backlog anymore (since A trimmed the tail of it's backlog),
and be forced to do a full sync (something it didn't have to do before the
meaningful offset fix).
Besides that, the psync2 test was always failing randomly here and there, it
turns out the reason were PINGs. Investigating it shows the following scenario:
cycle 1: redis #1 is master, and all the rest are direct replicas of #1
cycle 2: redis #2 is promoted to master, #1 is a replica of #2 and #3 is replica of #1
now we see that when #1 is demoted it prints:
17339:S 21 Apr 2020 11:16:38.523 * Using the meaningful offset 3929963 instead of 3929977 to exclude the final PINGs (14 bytes difference)
17339:S 21 Apr 2020 11:16:39.391 * Trying a partial resynchronization (request e2b3f8817735fdfe5fa4626766daa938b61419e5:3929964).
17339:S 21 Apr 2020 11:16:39.392 * Successful partial resynchronization with master.
and when #3 connects to the demoted #2, #2 says:
17339:S 21 Apr 2020 11:16:40.084 * Partial resynchronization not accepted: Requested offset for secondary ID was 3929978, but I can reply up to 3929964
so the issue here is that the meaningful offset feature saved the day for the
demoted master (since it needs to sync from a replica that didn't get the last
ping), but it didn't help one of the other replicas which did get the last ping.
STRALGO should be a container for mostly read-only string
algorithms in Redis. The algorithms should have two main
characteristics:
1. They should be non trivial to compute, and often not part of
programming language standard libraries.
2. They should be fast enough that it is a good idea to have optimized C
implementations.
Next thing I would love to see? A small strings compression algorithm.
Reloading of the RDB generated by
DEBUG POPULATE 5000000
SAVE
is now 25% faster.
This commit also prepares the ability to have more flexibility when
loading stuff from the RDB, since we no longer use dbAdd() but can
control exactly how things are added in the database.
