Replace slots_to_channels radix tree with slot specific dictionaries for shard channels. (#12804)
We have achieved replacing `slots_to_keys` radix tree with key->slot
linked list (#9356), and then replacing the list with slot specific
dictionaries for keys (#11695).

Shard channels behave just like keys in many ways, and we also need a
slots->channels mapping. Currently this is still done by using a radix
tree. So we should split `server.pubsubshard_channels` into 16384 dicts
and drop the radix tree, just like what we did to DBs.

Some benefits (basically the benefits of what we've done to DBs):
1. Optimize counting channels in a slot. This is currently used only in
removing channels in a slot. But this is potentially more useful:
sometimes we need to know how many channels there are in a specific slot
when doing slot migration. Counting is now implemented by traversing the
radix tree, and with this PR it will be as simple as calling `dictSize`,
from O(n) to O(1).
2. The radix tree in the cluster has been removed. The shard channel
names no longer require additional storage, which can save memory.
3. Potentially useful in slot migration, as shard channels are logically
split by slots, thus making it easier to migrate, remove or add as a
whole.
4. Avoid rehashing a big dict when there is a large number of channels.

Drawbacks:
1. Takes more memory than using radix tree when there are relatively few
shard channels.

What this PR does:
1. in cluster mode, split `server.pubsubshard_channels` into 16384
dicts, in standalone mode, still use only one dict.
2. drop the `slots_to_channels` radix tree.
3. to save memory (to solve the drawback above), all 16384 dicts are
created lazily, which means only when a channel is about to be inserted
to the dict will the dict be initialized, and when all channels are
deleted, the dict would delete itself.
5. use `server.shard_channel_count` to keep track of the number of all
shard channels.

Redis Test Suite

The normal execution mode of the test suite involves starting and manipulating local redis-server instances, inspecting process state, log files, etc.

The test suite also supports execution against an external server, which is enabled using the --host and --port parameters. When executing against an external server, tests tagged external:skip are skipped.

There are additional runtime options that can further adjust the test suite to match different external server configurations:

Option Impact
--singledb Only use database 0, don't assume others are supported.
--ignore-encoding Skip all checks for specific encoding.
--ignore-digest Skip key value digest validations.
--cluster-mode Run in strict Redis Cluster compatibility mode.
--large-memory Enables tests that consume more than 100mb

Tags

Tags are applied to tests to classify them according to the subsystem they test, but also to indicate compatibility with different run modes and required capabilities.

Tags can be applied in different context levels:

  • start_server context
  • tags context that bundles several tests together
  • A single test context.

The following compatibility and capability tags are currently used:

Tag Indicates
external:skip Not compatible with external servers.
cluster:skip Not compatible with --cluster-mode.
large-memory Test that requires more than 100mb
tls:skip Not compatible with --tls.
needs:repl Uses replication and needs to be able to SYNC from server.
needs:debug Uses the DEBUG command or other debugging focused commands (like OBJECT REFCOUNT).
needs:pfdebug Uses the PFDEBUG command.
needs:config-maxmemory Uses CONFIG SET to manipulate memory limit, eviction policies, etc.
needs:config-resetstat Uses CONFIG RESETSTAT to reset statistics.
needs:reset Uses RESET to reset client connections.
needs:save Uses SAVE or BGSAVE to create an RDB file.

When using an external server (--host and --port), filtering using the external:skip tags is done automatically.

When using --cluster-mode, filtering using the cluster:skip tag is done automatically.

When not using --large-memory, filtering using the largemem:skip tag is done automatically.

In addition, it is possible to specify additional configuration. For example, to run tests on a server that does not permit SYNC use:

./runtest --host <host> --port <port> --tags -needs:repl
