Technically declaring a prototype with an empty declaration has been deprecated since the early days of C, but we never got a warning for it. C2x will apparently be introducing a breaking change if you are using this type of declarator, so Clang 15 has started issuing a warning with -pedantic. Although not apparently a problem for any of the compiler we build on, if feels like the right thing is to properly adhere to the C standard and use (void).
We currently do not allow the use of bool type in redis project.
We didn't catch it in script.c because we included hdr_histogram.h in server.h
Removing it (but still having it in some c files) reducing
the chance to miss the usage of bool type in the future and catch it
in compiling stage.
It also removes the dependency on hdr_histogram for every unit
that includes server.h
* Make it clear that current_client is the root client that was called by
external connection
* add executing_client which is the client that runs the current command
(can be a module or a script)
* Remove script_caller that was used for commands that have CLIENT_SCRIPT
to get the client that called the script. in most cases, that's the current_client,
and in others (when being called from a module), it could be an intermediate
client when we actually want the original one used by the external connection.
bugfixes:
* RM_Call with C flag should log ACL errors with the requested user rather than
the one used by the original client, this also solves a crash when RM_Call is used
with C flag from a detached thread safe context.
* addACLLogEntry would have logged info about the script_caller, but in case the
script was issued by a module command we actually want the current_client. the
exception is when RM_Call is called from a timer event, in which case we don't
have a current_client.
behavior changes:
* client side tracking for scripts now tracks the keys that are read by the script
instead of the keys that are declared by the caller for EVAL
other changes:
* Log both current_client and executing_client in the crash log.
* remove prepareLuaClient and resetLuaClient, being dead code that was forgotten.
* remove scriptTimeSnapshot and snapshot_time and instead add cmd_time_snapshot
that serves all commands and is reset only when execution nesting starts.
* remove code to propagate CLIENT_FORCE_REPL from the executed command
to the script caller since scripts aren't propagated anyway these days and anyway
this flag wouldn't have had an effect since CLIENT_PREVENT_PROP is added by scriptResetRun.
* fix a module GIL violation issue in afterSleep that was introduced in #10300 (unreleased)
*TL;DR*
---------------------------------------
Following the discussion over the issue [#7551](https://github.com/redis/redis/issues/7551)
We decided to refactor the client blocking code to eliminate some of the code duplications
and to rebuild the infrastructure better for future key blocking cases.
*In this PR*
---------------------------------------
1. reprocess the command once a client becomes unblocked on key (instead of running
custom code for the unblocked path that's different than the one that would have run if
blocking wasn't needed)
2. eliminate some (now) irrelevant code for handling unblocking lists/zsets/streams etc...
3. modify some tests to intercept the error in cases of error on reprocess after unblock (see
details in the notes section below)
4. replace '$' on the client argv with current stream id. Since once we reprocess the stream
XREAD we need to read from the last msg and not wait for new msg in order to prevent
endless block loop.
5. Added statistics to the info "Clients" section to report the:
* `total_blocking_keys` - number of blocking keys
* `total_blocking_keys_on_nokey` - number of blocking keys which have at least 1 client
which would like
to be unblocked on when the key is deleted.
6. Avoid expiring unblocked key during unblock. Previously we used to lookup the unblocked key
which might have been expired during the lookup. Now we lookup the key using NOTOUCH and
NOEXPIRE to avoid deleting it at this point, so propagating commands in blocked.c is no longer needed.
7. deprecated command flags. We decided to remove the CMD_CALL_STATS and CMD_CALL_SLOWLOG
and make an explicit verification in the call() function in order to decide if stats update should take place.
This should simplify the logic and also mitigate existing issues: for example module calls which are
triggered as part of AOF loading might still report stats even though they are called during AOF loading.
*Behavior changes*
---------------------------------------------------
1. As this implementation prevents writing dedicated code handling unblocked streams/lists/zsets,
since we now re-process the command once the client is unblocked some errors will be reported differently.
The old implementation used to issue
``UNBLOCKED the stream key no longer exists``
in the following cases:
- The stream key has been deleted (ie. calling DEL)
- The stream and group existed but the key type was changed by overriding it (ie. with set command)
- The key not longer exists after we swapdb with a db which does not contains this key
- After swapdb when the new db has this key but with different type.
In the new implementation the reported errors will be the same as if the command was processed after effect:
**NOGROUP** - in case key no longer exists, or **WRONGTYPE** in case the key was overridden with a different type.
2. Reprocessing the command means that some checks will be reevaluated once the
client is unblocked.
For example, ACL rules might change since the command originally was executed and
will fail once the client is unblocked.
Another example is OOM condition checks which might enable the command to run and
block but fail the command reprocess once the client is unblocked.
3. One of the changes in this PR is that no command stats are being updated once the
command is blocked (all stats will be updated once the client is unblocked). This implies
that when we have many clients blocked, users will no longer be able to get that information
from the command stats. However the information can still be gathered from the client list.
**Client blocking**
---------------------------------------------------
the blocking on key will still be triggered the same way as it is done today.
in order to block the current client on list of keys, the call to
blockForKeys will still need to be made which will perform the same as it is today:
* add the client to the list of blocked clients on each key
* keep the key with a matching list node (position in the global blocking clients list for that key)
in the client private blocking key dict.
* flag the client with CLIENT_BLOCKED
* update blocking statistics
* register the client on the timeout table
**Key Unblock**
---------------------------------------------------
Unblocking a specific key will be triggered (same as today) by calling signalKeyAsReady.
the implementation in that part will stay the same as today - adding the key to the global readyList.
The reason to maintain the readyList (as apposed to iterating over all clients blocked on the specific key)
is in order to keep the signal operation as short as possible, since it is called during the command processing.
The main change is that instead of going through a dedicated code path that operates the blocked command
we will just call processPendingCommandsAndResetClient.
**ClientUnblock (keys)**
---------------------------------------------------
1. Unblocking clients on keys will be triggered after command is
processed and during the beforeSleep
8. the general schema is:
9. For each key *k* in the readyList:
```
For each client *c* which is blocked on *k*:
in case either:
1. *k* exists AND the *k* type matches the current client blocking type
OR
2. *k* exists and *c* is blocked on module command
OR
3. *k* does not exists and *c* was blocked with the flag
unblock_on_deleted_key
do:
1. remove the client from the list of clients blocked on this key
2. remove the blocking list node from the client blocking key dict
3. remove the client from the timeout list
10. queue the client on the unblocked_clients list
11. *NEW*: call processCommandAndResetClient(c);
```
*NOTE:* for module blocked clients we will still call the moduleUnblockClientByHandle
which will queue the client for processing in moduleUnblockedClients list.
**Process Unblocked clients**
---------------------------------------------------
The process of all unblocked clients is done in the beforeSleep and no change is planned
in that part.
The general schema will be:
For each client *c* in server.unblocked_clients:
* remove client from the server.unblocked_clients
* set back the client readHandler
* continue processing the pending command and input buffer.
*Some notes regarding the new implementation*
---------------------------------------------------
1. Although it was proposed, it is currently difficult to remove the
read handler from the client while it is blocked.
The reason is that a blocked client should be unblocked when it is
disconnected, or we might consume data into void.
2. While this PR mainly keep the current blocking logic as-is, there
might be some future additions to the infrastructure that we would
like to have:
- allow non-preemptive blocking of client - sometimes we can think
that a new kind of blocking can be expected to not be preempt. for
example lets imagine we hold some keys on disk and when a command
needs to process them it will block until the keys are uploaded.
in this case we will want the client to not disconnect or be
unblocked until the process is completed (remove the client read
handler, prevent client timeout, disable unblock via debug command etc...).
- allow generic blocking based on command declared keys - we might
want to add a hook before command processing to check if any of the
declared keys require the command to block. this way it would be
easier to add new kinds of key-based blocking mechanisms.

This mechanism aims to reduce calls to malloc and free when
preparing the arguments the script sends to redis commands.
This is a mechanism was originally implemented in 48c49c4
and 4f68655, and was removed in #10220 (thinking it's not needed
and that it has no impact), but it now turns out it was wrong, and it
indeed provides some 5% performance improvement.
The implementation is a little bit too simplistic, it assumes consecutive
calls use the same size in the same arg index, but that's arguably
sufficient since it's only aimed at caching very small things.
We could even consider always pre-allocating args to the full
LUA_CMD_OBJCACHE_MAX_LEN (64 bytes) rather than the right size for the argument,
that would increase the chance they'll be able to be re-used.
But in some way this is already happening since we're using
sdsalloc, which in turn uses s_malloc_usable and takes ownership
of the full side of the allocation, so we are padded to the allocator
bucket size.

RM_Call is designed to let modules call redis commands disregarding the
OOM state (the module is responsible to declare its command flags to redis,
or perform the necessary checks).
The other (new) alternative is to pass the "M" flag to RM_Call so that redis can
OOM reject commands implicitly.
However, Currently, RM_Call enforces OOM on scripts (excluding scripts that
declared `allow-oom`) in all cases, regardless of the RM_Call "M" flag being present.
This PR fixes scripts to be consistent with other commands being executed by RM_Call.
It modifies the flow in effect treats scripts as if they if they have the ALLOW_OOM script
flag, if the "M" flag is not passed (i.e. no OOM checking is being performed by RM_Call,
so no OOM checking should be done on script).

Motivation: for applications that use RM ACL verification functions, they would
want to return errors back to the user, in ways that are consistent with Redis.
While investigating how we should return ACL errors to the user, we realized that
Redis isn't consistent, and currently returns ACL error strings in 3 primary ways.
[For the actual implications of this change, see the "Impact" section at the bottom]
1. how it returns an error when calling a command normally
ACL_DENIED_CMD -> "this user has no permissions to run the '%s' command"
ACL_DENIED_KEY -> "this user has no permissions to access one of the keys used as arguments"
ACL_DENIED_CHANNEL -> "this user has no permissions to access one of the channels used as arguments"
2. how it returns an error when calling via 'acl dryrun' command
ACL_DENIED_CMD -> "This user has no permissions to run the '%s' command"
ACL_DENIED_KEY -> "This user has no permissions to access the '%s' key"
ACL_DENIED_CHANNEL -> "This user has no permissions to access the '%s' channel"
3. how it returns an error via RM_Call (and scripting is similar).
ACL_DENIED_CMD -> "can't run this command or subcommand";
ACL_DENIED_KEY -> "can't access at least one of the keys mentioned in the command arguments";
ACL_DENIED_CHANNEL -> "can't publish to the channel mentioned in the command";
In addition, if one wants to use RM_Call's "dry run" capability instead of the RM ACL
functions directly, one also sees a different problem than it returns ACL errors with a -ERR,
not a -PERM, so it can't be returned directly to the caller.
This PR modifies the code to generate a base message in a common manner with the ability
to set verbose flag for acl dry run errors, and keep it unset for normal/rm_call/script cases
```c
sds getAclErrorMessage(int acl_res, user *user, struct redisCommand *cmd, sds errored_val, int verbose) {
switch (acl_res) {
case ACL_DENIED_CMD:
return sdscatfmt(sdsempty(), "User %S has no permissions to run "
"the '%S' command", user->name, cmd->fullname);
case ACL_DENIED_KEY:
if (verbose) {
return sdscatfmt(sdsempty(), "User %S has no permissions to access "
"the '%S' key", user->name, errored_val);
} else {
return sdsnew("No permissions to access a key");
}
case ACL_DENIED_CHANNEL:
if (verbose) {
return sdscatfmt(sdsempty(), "User %S has no permissions to access "
"the '%S' channel", user->name, errored_val);
} else {
return sdsnew("No permissions to access a channel");
}
}
```
The caller can append/prepend the message (adding NOPERM for normal/RM_Call or indicating it's within a script).
Impact:
- Plain commands, as well as scripts and RM_Call now include the user name.
- ACL DRYRUN remains the only one that's verbose (mentions the offending channel or key name)
- Changes RM_Call ACL errors from being a `-ERR` to being `-NOPERM` (besides for textual changes)
**This somewhat a breaking change, but it only affects the RM_Call with both `C` and `E`, or `D`**
- Changes ACL errors in scripts textually from being
`The user executing the script <old non unified text>`
to
`ACL failure in script: <new unified text>`
If a script made a modification and then was interrupted for taking too long.
there's a chance redis will detect that a replica dropped and would like to reject
write commands with NOREPLICAS due to insufficient good replicas.
returning an error on a command in this case breaks the script atomicity.
The same could in theory happen with READONLY, MISCONF, but i don't think
these state changes can happen during script execution.
The important part is that read-only scripts (not just EVAL_RO
and FCALL_RO, but also ones with `no-writes` executed by normal EVAL or
FCALL), will now be permitted to run during CLIENT PAUSE WRITE (unlike
before where only the _RO commands would be processed).
Other than that, some errors like OOM, READONLY, MASTERDOWN are now
handled by processCommand, rather than the command itself affects the
error string (and even error code in some cases), and command stats.
Besides that, now the `may-replicate` commands, PFCOUNT and PUBLISH, will
be considered `write` commands in scripts and will be blocked in all
read-only scripts just like other write commands.
They'll also be blocked in EVAL_RO (i.e. even for scripts without the
`no-writes` shebang flag.
This commit also hides the `may_replicate` flag from the COMMAND command
output. this is a **breaking change**.
background about may_replicate:
We don't want to expose a no-may-replicate flag or alike to scripts, since we
consider the may-replicate thing an internal concern of redis, that we may
some day get rid of.
In fact, the may-replicate flag was initially introduced to flag EVAL: since
we didn't know what it's gonna do ahead of execution, before function-flags
existed). PUBLISH and PFCOUNT, both of which because they have side effects
which may some day be fixed differently.
code changes:
The changes in eval.c are mostly code re-ordering:
- evalCalcFunctionName is extracted out of evalGenericCommand
- evalExtractShebangFlags is extracted luaCreateFunction
- evalGetCommandFlags is new code
* Fix broken protocol when redis can't persist to RDB (general commands, not
modules), excessive newline. regression of #10372 (7.0 RC3)
* Fix broken protocol when Redis can't persist to AOF (modules and
scripts), missing newline.
* Fix bug in OOM check of EVAL scripts called from RM_Call.
set the cached OOM state for scripts before executing module commands too,
so that it can serve scripts that are executed by modules.
i.e. in the past EVAL executed by RM_Call could have either falsely
fail or falsely succeeded because of a wrong cached OOM state flag.
* Fix bugs with RM_Yield:
1. SHUTDOWN should only accept the NOSAVE mode
2. Avoid eviction during yield command processing.
3. Avoid processing master client commands while yielding from another client
* Add new two more checks to RM_Call script mode.
1. READONLY You can't write against a read only replica
2. MASTERDOWN Link with MASTER is down and `replica-serve-stale-data` is set to `no`
* Add new RM_Call flag to let redis automatically refuse `deny-oom` commands
while over the memory limit.
* Add tests to cover various errors from Scripts, Modules, Modules
calling scripts, and Modules calling commands in script mode.
Add tests:
* Looks like the MISCONF error was completely uncovered by the tests,
add tests for it, including from scripts, and modules
* Add tests for NOREPLICAS from scripts
* Add tests for the various errors in module RM_Call, including RM_Call that
calls EVAL, and RM_call in "eval mode". that includes:
NOREPLICAS, READONLY, MASTERDOWN, MISCONF
Added the function name/script sha to the script timeout log message.
This info existed in the log in redis 6.2, was removed in the function refactoring
since was initially complicated, but later made simple.
Scripts that have the `no-writes` flag, cannot execute write commands,
and since all `deny-oom` commands are write commands, we now act
as if the `allow-oom` flag is implicitly set for scripts that set the `no-writes` flag.
this also implicitly means that the EVAL*_RO and FCALL_RO commands can
never fails with OOM error.
Note about a bug that's no longer relevant:
There was an issue with EVAL*_RO using shebang not being blocked correctly
in OOM state:
When an EVAL script declares a shebang, it was by default not allowed to run in
OOM state.
but this depends on a flag that is updated before the command is executed, which
was not updated in case of the `_RO` variants.
the result is that if the previous cached state was outdated (either true or false),
the script will either unjustly fail with OOM, or unjustly allowed to run despite
the OOM state.
It doesn't affect scripts without a shebang since these depend on the actual
commands they run, and since these are only read commands, they don't care
for that cached oom state flag.
it did affect scripts with shebang and no allow-oom flag, bug after the change in
this PR, scripts that are run with eval_ro would implicitly have that flag so again
the cached state doesn't matter.
p.s. this isn't a breaking change since all it does is allow scripts to run when they
should / could rather than blocking them.
sometimes it is using `scriptIsRunning()` and other times it is using `server.in_script`.
We should use the `scriptIsRunning()` method consistently throughout the code base.
Removed server.in_script sine it's no longer used / needed.
Adds the `allow-cross-slot-keys` flag to Eval scripts and Functions to allow
scripts to access keys from multiple slots.
The default behavior is now that they are not allowed to do that (unlike before).
This is a breaking change for 7.0 release candidates (to be part of 7.0.0), but
not for previous redis releases since EVAL without shebang isn't doing this check.
Note that the check is done on both the keys declared by the EVAL / FCALL command
arguments, and also the ones used by the script when making a `redis.call`.
A note about the implementation, there seems to have been some confusion
about allowing access to non local keys. I thought I missed something in our
wider conversation, but Redis scripts do block access to non-local keys.
So the issue was just about cross slots being accessed.
This PR unifies all the places that test if the current client is the
master client or AOF client, and uses a method to test that on all of
these.
Other than some refactoring, these are the actual implications:
- Replicas **don't** ignore disk error when processing commands not
coming from their master.
**This is important for PING to be used for health check of replicas**
- SETRANGE, APPEND, SETBIT, BITFIELD don't do proto_max_bulk_len check for AOF
- RM_Call in SCRIPT_MODE ignores disk error when coming from master /
AOF
- RM_Call in cluster mode ignores slot check when processing AOF
- Scripts ignore disk error when processing AOF
- Scripts **don't** ignore disk error on a replica, if the command comes
from clients other than the master
- SCRIPT KILL won't kill script coming from AOF
- Scripts **don't** skip OOM check on replica if the command comes from
clients other than the master
Note that Script, AOF, and module clients don't reach processCommand,
which is why some of the changes don't actually have any implications.
Note, reverting the change done to processCommand in 2f4240b9d9
should be dead code due to the above mentioned fact.
The PR extends RM_Call with 3 new capabilities using new flags that
are given to RM_Call as part of the `fmt` argument.
It aims to assist modules that are getting a list of commands to be
executed from the user (not hard coded as part of the module logic),
think of a module that implements a new scripting language...
* `S` - Run the command in a script mode, this means that it will raise an
error if a command which are not allowed inside a script (flaged with the
`deny-script` flag) is invoked (like SHUTDOWN). In addition, on script mode,
write commands are not allowed if there is not enough good replicas (as
configured with `min-replicas-to-write`) and/or a disk error happened.
* `W` - no writes mode, Redis will reject any command that is marked with `write`
flag. Again can be useful to modules that implement a new scripting language
and wants to prevent any write commands.
* `E` - Return errors as RedisModuleCallReply. Today the errors that happened
before the command was invoked (like unknown commands or acl error) return
a NULL reply and set errno. This might be missing important information about
the failure and it is also impossible to just pass the error to the user using
RM_ReplyWithCallReply. This new flag allows you to get a RedisModuleCallReply
object with the relevant error message and treat it as if it was an error that was
raised by the command invocation.
Tests were added to verify the new code paths.
In addition small refactoring was done to share some code between modules,
scripts, and `processCommand` function:
1. `getAclErrorMessage` was added to `acl.c` to unified to log message extraction
from the acl result
2. `checkGoodReplicasStatus` was added to `replication.c` to check the status of
good replicas. It is used on `scriptVerifyWriteCommandAllow`, `RM_Call`, and
`processCommand`.
3. `writeCommandsGetDiskErrorMessage` was added to `server.c` to get the error
message on persistence failure. Again it is used on `scriptVerifyWriteCommandAllow`,
`RM_Call`, and `processCommand`.
In some special commands like eval_ro / fcall_ro we allow no-writes commands.
But may-replicate commands are no-writes too, that leads crash when client pause write:
This PR fix 2 issues on Lua scripting:
* Server error reply statistics (some errors were counted twice).
* Error code and error strings returning from scripts (error code was missing / misplaced).
## Statistics
a Lua script user is considered part of the user application, a sophisticated transaction,
so we want to count an error even if handled silently by the script, but when it is
propagated outwards from the script we don't wanna count it twice. on the other hand,
if the script decides to throw an error on its own (using `redis.error_reply`), we wanna
count that too.
Besides, we do count the `calls` in command statistics for the commands the script calls,
we we should certainly also count `failed_calls`.
So when a simple `eval "return redis.call('set','x','y')" 0` fails, it should count the failed call
to both SET and EVAL, but the `errorstats` and `total_error_replies` should be counted only once.
The PR changes the error object that is raised on errors. Instead of raising a simple Lua
string, Redis will raise a Lua table in the following format:
```
{
err='<error message (including error code)>',
source='<User source file name>',
line='<line where the error happned>',
ignore_error_stats_update=true/false,
}
```
The `luaPushError` function was modified to construct the new error table as describe above.
The `luaRaiseError` was renamed to `luaError` and is now simply called `lua_error` to raise
the table on the top of the Lua stack as the error object.
The reason is that since its functionality is changed, in case some Redis branch / fork uses it,
it's better to have a compilation error than a bug.
The `source` and `line` fields are enriched by the error handler (if possible) and the
`ignore_error_stats_update` is optional and if its not present then the default value is `false`.
If `ignore_error_stats_update` is true, the error will not be counted on the error stats.
When parsing Redis call reply, each error is translated to a Lua table on the format describe
above and the `ignore_error_stats_update` field is set to `true` so we will not count errors
twice (we counted this error when we invoke the command).
The changes in this PR might have been considered as a breaking change for users that used
Lua `pcall` function. Before, the error was a string and now its a table. To keep backward
comparability the PR override the `pcall` implementation and extract the error message from
the error table and return it.
Example of the error stats update:
```
127.0.0.1:6379> lpush l 1
(integer) 2
127.0.0.1:6379> eval "return redis.call('get', 'l')" 0
(error) WRONGTYPE Operation against a key holding the wrong kind of value. script: e471b73f1ef44774987ab00bdf51f21fd9f7974a, on @user_script:1.
127.0.0.1:6379> info Errorstats
# Errorstats
errorstat_WRONGTYPE:count=1
127.0.0.1:6379> info commandstats
# Commandstats
cmdstat_eval:calls=1,usec=341,usec_per_call=341.00,rejected_calls=0,failed_calls=1
cmdstat_info:calls=1,usec=35,usec_per_call=35.00,rejected_calls=0,failed_calls=0
cmdstat_lpush:calls=1,usec=14,usec_per_call=14.00,rejected_calls=0,failed_calls=0
cmdstat_get:calls=1,usec=10,usec_per_call=10.00,rejected_calls=0,failed_calls=1
```
## error message
We can now construct the error message (sent as a reply to the user) from the error table,
so this solves issues where the error message was malformed and the error code appeared
in the middle of the error message:
```diff
127.0.0.1:6379> eval "return redis.call('set','x','y')" 0
-(error) ERR Error running script (call to 71e6319f97b0fe8bdfa1c5df3ce4489946dda479): @user_script:1: OOM command not allowed when used memory > 'maxmemory'.

```
Notica that `redis.pcall` was not change:
```
127.0.0.1:6379> eval "return redis.pcall('get', 'l')" 0
(error) WRONGTYPE Operation against a key holding the wrong kind of value
```
## other notes
Notice that Some commands (like GEOADD) changes the cmd variable on the client stats so we
can not count on it to update the command stats. In order to be able to update those stats correctly
we needed to promote `realcmd` variable to be located on the client struct.
Tests was added and modified to verify the changes.

In #10025 we added a mechanism for flagging certain properties for Redis Functions.
This lead us to think we'd like to "port" this mechanism to Redis Scripts (`EVAL`) as well.
One good reason for this, other than the added functionality is because it addresses the
poor behavior we currently have in `EVAL` in case the script performs a (non DENY_OOM) write operation
during OOM state. See #8478 (And a previous attempt to handle it via #10093) for details.
Note that in Redis Functions **all** write operations (including DEL) will return an error during OOM state
unless the function is flagged as `allow-oom` in which case no OOM checking is performed at all.
This PR:
- Enables setting `EVAL` (and `SCRIPT LOAD`) script flags as defined in #10025.
- Provides a syntactical framework via [shebang](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shebang_(Unix)) for
additional script annotations and even engine selection (instead of just lua) for scripts.
- Provides backwards compatibility so scripts without the new annotations will behave as they did before.
- Appropriate tests.
- Changes `EVAL[SHA]/_RO` to be flagged as `STALE` commands. This makes it possible to flag individual
scripts as `allow-stale` or not flag them as such. In backwards compatibility mode these commands will
return the `MASTERDOWN` error as before.
- Changes `SCRIPT LOAD` to be flagged as a `STALE` command. This is mainly to make it logically
compatible with the change to `EVAL` in the previous point. It enables loading a script on a stale server
which is technically okay it doesn't relate directly to the server's dataset. Running the script does, but that
won't work unless the script is explicitly marked as `allow-stale`.
Note that even though the LUA syntax doesn't support hash tag comments `.lua` files do support a shebang
tag on the top so they can be executed on Unix systems like any shell script. LUA's `luaL_loadfile` handles
this as part of the LUA library. In the case of `luaL_loadbuffer`, which is what Redis uses, I needed to fix the
input script in case of a shebang manually. I did this the same way `luaL_loadfile` does, by replacing the
first line with a single line feed character.
Some modules might perform a long-running logic in different stages of Redis lifetime, for example:
* command execution
* RDB loading
* thread safe context
During this long-running logic Redis is not responsive.
This PR offers
1. An API to process events while a busy command is running (`RM_Yield`)
2. A new flag (`ALLOW_BUSY`) to mark the commands that should be handled during busy
jobs which can also be used by modules (`allow-busy`)
3. In slow commands and thread safe contexts, this flag will start rejecting commands with -BUSY only
after `busy-reply-threshold`
4. During loading (`rdb_load` callback), it'll process events right away (not wait for `busy-reply-threshold`),
but either way, the processing is throttled to the server hz rate.
5. Allow modules to Yield to redis background tasks, but not to client commands
* rename `script-time-limit` to `busy-reply-threshold` (an alias to the pre-7.0 `lua-time-limit`)

# Redis Functions Flags
Following the discussion on #10025 Added Functions Flags support.
The PR is divided to 2 sections:
* Add named argument support to `redis.register_function` API.
* Add support for function flags
## `redis.register_function` named argument support
The first part of the PR adds support for named argument on `redis.register_function`, example:
```
redis.register_function{
function_name='f1',
callback=function()
return 'hello'
end,
description='some desc'
}
```
The positional arguments is also kept, which means that it still possible to write:
```
redis.register_function('f1', function() return 'hello' end)
```
But notice that it is no longer possible to pass the optional description argument on the positional
argument version. Positional argument was change to allow passing only the mandatory arguments
(function name and callback). To pass more arguments the user must use the named argument version.
As with positional arguments, the `function_name` and `callback` is mandatory and an error will be
raise if those are missing. Also, an error will be raise if an unknown argument name is given or the
arguments type is wrong.
Tests was added to verify the new syntax.
## Functions Flags
The second part of the PR is adding functions flags support.
Flags are given to Redis when the engine calls `functionLibCreateFunction`, supported flags are:
* `no-writes` - indicating the function perform no writes which means that it is OK to run it on:
* read-only replica
* Using FCALL_RO
* If disk error detected
It will not be possible to run a function in those situations unless the function turns on the `no-writes` flag
* `allow-oom` - indicate that its OK to run the function even if Redis is in OOM state, if the function will
not turn on this flag it will not be possible to run it if OOM reached (even if the function declares `no-writes`
and even if `fcall_ro` is used). If this flag is set, any command will be allow on OOM (even those that is
marked with CMD_DENYOOM). The assumption is that this flag is for advance users that knows its
meaning and understand what they are doing, and Redis trust them to not increase the memory usage.
(e.g. it could be an INCR or a modification on an existing key, or a DEL command)
* `allow-state` - indicate that its OK to run the function on stale replica, in this case we will also make
sure the function is only perform `stale` commands and raise an error if not.
* `no-cluster` - indicate to disallow running the function if cluster is enabled.
Default behaviure of functions (if no flags is given):
1. Allow functions to read and write
2. Do not run functions on OOM
3. Do not run functions on stale replica
4. Allow functions on cluster
### Lua API for functions flags
On Lua engine, it is possible to give functions flags as `flags` named argument:
```
redis.register_function{function_name='f1', callback=function() return 1 end, flags={'no-writes', 'allow-oom'}, description='description'}
```
The function flags argument must be a Lua table that contains all the requested flags, The following
will result in an error:
* Unknown flag
* Wrong flag type
Default behaviour is the same as if no flags are used.
Tests were added to verify all flags functionality
## Additional changes
* mark FCALL and FCALL_RO with CMD_STALE flag (unlike EVAL), so that they can run if the function was
registered with the `allow-stale` flag.
* Verify `CMD_STALE` on `scriptCall` (`redis.call`), so it will not be possible to call commands from script while
stale unless the command is marked with the `CMD_STALE` flags. so that even if the function is allowed while
stale we do not allow it to bypass the `CMD_STALE` flag of commands.
* Flags section was added to `FUNCTION LIST` command to provide the set of flags for each function:
```
> FUNCTION list withcode
1) 1) "library_name"
2) "test"
3) "engine"
4) "LUA"
5) "description"
6) (nil)
7) "functions"
8) 1) 1) "name"
2) "f1"
3) "description"
4) (nil)
5) "flags"
6) (empty array)
9) "library_code"
10) "redis.register_function{function_name='f1', callback=function() return 1 end}"
```
* Added API to get Redis version from within a script, The redis version can be provided using:
1. `redis.REDIS_VERSION` - string representation of the redis version in the format of MAJOR.MINOR.PATH
2. `redis.REDIS_VERSION_NUM` - number representation of the redis version in the format of `0x00MMmmpp`
(`MM` - major, `mm` - minor, `pp` - patch). The number version can be used to check if version is greater or less
another version. The string version can be used to return to the user or print as logs.
This new API is provided to eval scripts and functions, it also possible to use this API during functions loading phase.
This commit adds some tests that the test cases will
access the keys with expiration time set in the script call.
There was no test case for this part before. See #10080
Also there is a test will cover #1525. we block the time so
that the key can not expire in the middle of the script execution.
Other changes:
1. Delete `evalTimeSnapshot` and just use `scriptTimeSnapshot` in it's place.
2. Some cleanups to scripting.tcl.
3. better names for tests that run in a loop to make them distinctable
The mess:
Some parts use alsoPropagate for late propagation, others using an immediate one (propagate()),
causing edge cases, ugly/hacky code, and the tendency for bugs
The basic idea is that all commands are propagated via alsoPropagate (i.e. added to a list) and the
top-most call() is responsible for going over that list and actually propagating them (and wrapping
them in MULTI/EXEC if there's more than one command). This is done in the new function,
propagatePendingCommands.
Callers to propagatePendingCommands:
1. top-most call() (we want all nested call()s to add to the also_propagate array and just the top-most
one to propagate them) - via `afterCommand`
2. handleClientsBlockedOnKeys: it is out of call() context and it may propagate stuff - via `afterCommand`.
3. handleClientsBlockedOnKeys edge case: if the looked-up key is already expired, we will propagate the
expire but will not unblock any client so `afterCommand` isn't called. in that case, we have to propagate
the deletion explicitly.
4. cron stuff: active-expire and eviction may also propagate stuff
5. modules: the module API allows to propagate stuff from just about anywhere (timers, keyspace notifications,
threads). I could have tried to catch all the out-of-call-context places but it seemed easier to handle it in one
place: when we free the context. in the spirit of what was done in call(), only the top-most freeing of a module
context may cause propagation.
6. modules: when using a thread-safe ctx it's not clear when/if the ctx will be freed. we do know that the module
must lock the GIL before calling RM_Replicate/RM_Call so we propagate the pending commands when
releasing the GIL.
A "known limitation", which were actually a bug, was fixed because of this commit (see propagate.tcl):
When using a mix of RM_Call with `!` and RM_Replicate, the command would propagate out-of-order:
first all the commands from RM_Call, and then the ones from RM_Replicate
Another thing worth mentioning is that if, in the past, a client would issue a MULTI/EXEC with just one
write command the server would blindly propagate the MULTI/EXEC too, even though it's redundant.
not anymore.
This commit renames propagate() to propagateNow() in order to cause conflicts in pending PRs.
propagatePendingCommands is the only caller of propagateNow, which is now a static, internal helper function.
Optimizations:
1. alsoPropagate will not add stuff to also_propagate if there's no AOF and replicas
2. alsoPropagate reallocs also_propagagte exponentially, to save calls to memmove
Bugfixes:
1. CONFIG SET can create evictions, sending notifications which can cause to dirty++ with modules.
we need to prevent it from propagating to AOF/replicas
2. We need to set current_client in RM_Call. buggy scenario:
- CONFIG SET maxmemory, eviction notifications, module hook calls RM_Call
- assertion in lookupKey crashes, because current_client has CONFIG SET, which isn't CMD_WRITE
3. minor: in eviction, call propagateDeletion after notification, like active-expire and all commands
(we always send a notification before propagating the command)
# Background
The main goal of this PR is to remove relevant logics on Lua script verbatim replication,
only keeping effects replication logic, which has been set as default since Redis 5.0.
As a result, Lua in Redis 7.0 would be acting the same as Redis 6.0 with default
configuration from users' point of view.
There are lots of reasons to remove verbatim replication.
Antirez has listed some of the benefits in Issue #5292:
>1. No longer need to explain to users side effects into scripts.
They can do whatever they want.
>2. No need for a cache about scripts that we sent or not to the slaves.
>3. No need to sort the output of certain commands inside scripts
(SMEMBERS and others): this both simplifies and gains speed.
>4. No need to store scripts inside the RDB file in order to startup correctly.
>5. No problems about evicting keys during the script execution.
When looking back at Redis 5.0, antirez and core team decided to set the config
`lua-replicate-commands yes` by default instead of removing verbatim replication
directly, in case some bad situations happened. 3 years later now before Redis 7.0,
it's time to remove it formally.
# Changes
- configuration for lua-replicate-commands removed
- created config file stub for backward compatibility
- Replication script cache removed
- this is useless under script effects replication
- relevant statistics also removed
- script persistence in RDB files is also removed
- Propagation of SCRIPT LOAD and SCRIPT FLUSH to replica / AOF removed
- Deterministic execution logic in scripts removed (i.e. don't run write commands
after random ones, and sorting output of commands with random order)
- the flags indicating which commands have non-deterministic results are kept as hints to clients.
- `redis.replicate_commands()` & `redis.set_repl()` changed
- now `redis.replicate_commands()` does nothing and return an 1
- ...and then `redis.set_repl()` can be issued before `redis.replicate_commands()` now
- Relevant TCL cases adjusted
- DEBUG lua-always-replicate-commands removed
# Other changes
- Fix a recent bug comparing CLIENT_ID_AOF to original_client->flags instead of id. (introduced in #9780)

Redis function unit is located inside functions.c
and contains Redis Function implementation:
1. FUNCTION commands:
* FUNCTION CREATE
* FCALL
* FCALL_RO
* FUNCTION DELETE
* FUNCTION KILL
* FUNCTION INFO
2. Register engine
In addition, this commit introduce the first engine
that uses the Redis Function capabilities, the
Lua engine.
Script unit is a new unit located on script.c.
Its purpose is to provides an API for functions (and eval)
to interact with Redis. Interaction includes mostly
executing commands, but also functionalities like calling
Redis back on long scripts or check if the script was killed.
The interaction is done using a scriptRunCtx object that
need to be created by the user and initialized using scriptPrepareForRun.
Detailed list of functionalities expose by the unit:
1. Calling commands (including all the validation checks such as
acl, cluster, read only run, ...)
2. Set Resp
3. Set Replication method (AOF/REPLICATION/NONE)
4. Call Redis back to on long running scripts to allow Redis reply
to clients and perform script kill
The commit introduce the new unit and uses it on eval commands to
interact with Redis.
