In #7875 (Redis 6.2), we changed the sds alloc to be the usable allocation size in order to: > reduce the need for realloc calls by making the sds implicitly take over the internal fragmentation This change was done most sds functions, excluding `sdsRemoveFreeSpace` and `sdsResize`, the reason is that in some places (e.g. clientsCronResizeQueryBuffer) we call sdsRemoveFreeSpace when we see excessive free space and want to trim it. so if we don't trim it exactly to size, the caller may still see excessive free space and call it again and again. However, this resulted in some excessive calls to realloc, even when there's no need and it's gonna be a no-op (e.g. when reducing 15 bytes allocation to 13). It turns out that a call for realloc with jemalloc can be expensive even if it ends up doing nothing, so this PR adds a check using `je_nallocx`, which is cheap to avoid the call for realloc. in addition to that this PR unifies sdsResize and sdsRemoveFreeSpace into common code. the difference between them was that sdsResize would avoid using SDS_TYPE_5, since it want to keep the string ready to be resized again, while sdsRemoveFreeSpace would permit using SDS_TYPE_5 and get an optimal memory consumption. now both methods take a `would_regrow` argument that makes it more explicit. the only actual impact of that is that in clientsCronResizeQueryBuffer we call both sdsResize and sdsRemoveFreeSpace for in different cases, and we now prevent the use of SDS_TYPE_5 in both. The new test that was added to cover this concern used to pass before this PR as well, this PR is just a performance optimization and cleanup. Benchmark: `redis-benchmark -c 100 -t set -d 512 -P 10 -n 100000000` on i7-9850H with jemalloc, shows improvement from 1021k ops/sec to 1067k (average of 3 runs). some 4.5% improvement.

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_servercontexttagscontext 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
