Example: Client uses a pipe to send the following to a
stale replica:
MULTI
.. do something ...
DISCARD
The replica will reply the MUTLI with -MASTERDOWN and
execute the rest of the commands... A client using a
pipe might not be aware that MULTI failed until it's
too late.
I can't think of a reason why MULTI/EXEC/DISCARD should
not be executed on stale replicas...
Also, enable MULTI/EXEC/DISCARD during loading
First, we must parse the IDs, so that we abort ASAP.
The return value of this command cannot be an error if
the client successfully acknowledged some messages,
so it should be executed in a "all or nothing" fashion.
By using a "circular BRPOPLPUSH"-like scenario it was
possible the get the same client on db->blocking_keys
twice (See comment in moduleTryServeClientBlockedOnKey)
The fix was actually already implememnted in
moduleTryServeClientBlockedOnKey but it had a bug:
the funxction should return 0 or 1 (not OK or ERR)
Other changes:
1. Added two commands to blockonkeys.c test module (To
reproduce the case described above)
2. Simplify blockonkeys.c in order to make testing easier
3. cast raxSize() to avoid warning with format spec
Related to #5145.
Design note: clients may change type when they turn into replicas or are
moved into the Pub/Sub category and so forth. Moreover the recomputation
of the bytes used is problematic for obvious reasons: it changes
continuously, so as a conservative way to avoid accumulating errors,
each client remembers the contribution it gave to the sum, and removes
it when it is freed or before updating it with the new memory usage.
Initially they needed to be at the end so that we could extend to N
strings in the future, but after further consideration I no longer
believe it's worth it.
