This PR extends the module API to support the addition of different scripting engines to execute user defined functions. The scripting engine can be implemented as a Valkey module, and can be dynamically loaded with the `loadmodule` config directive, or with the `MODULE LOAD` command. This PR also adds an example of a dummy scripting engine module, to show how to use the new module API. The dummy module is implemented in `tests/modules/helloscripting.c`. The current module API support, only allows to load scripting engines to run functions using `FCALL` command. The additions to the module API are the following: ```c /* This struct represents a scripting engine function that results from the * compilation of a script by the engine implementation. */ struct ValkeyModuleScriptingEngineCompiledFunction typedef ValkeyModuleScriptingEngineCompiledFunction **(*ValkeyModuleScriptingEngineCreateFunctionsLibraryFunc)( ValkeyModuleScriptingEngineCtx *engine_ctx, const char *code, size_t timeout, size_t *out_num_compiled_functions, char **err); typedef void (*ValkeyModuleScriptingEngineCallFunctionFunc)( ValkeyModuleCtx *module_ctx, ValkeyModuleScriptingEngineCtx *engine_ctx, ValkeyModuleScriptingEngineFunctionCtx *func_ctx, void *compiled_function, ValkeyModuleString **keys, size_t nkeys, ValkeyModuleString **args, size_t nargs); typedef size_t (*ValkeyModuleScriptingEngineGetUsedMemoryFunc)( ValkeyModuleScriptingEngineCtx *engine_ctx); typedef size_t (*ValkeyModuleScriptingEngineGetFunctionMemoryOverheadFunc)( void *compiled_function); typedef size_t (*ValkeyModuleScriptingEngineGetEngineMemoryOverheadFunc)( ValkeyModuleScriptingEngineCtx *engine_ctx); typedef void (*ValkeyModuleScriptingEngineFreeFunctionFunc)( ValkeyModuleScriptingEngineCtx *engine_ctx, void *compiled_function); /* This struct stores the callback functions implemented by the scripting * engine to provide the functionality for the `FUNCTION *` commands. */ typedef struct ValkeyModuleScriptingEngineMethodsV1 { uint64_t version; /* Version of this structure for ABI compat. */ /* Library create function callback. When a new script is loaded, this * callback will be called with the script code, and returns a list of * ValkeyModuleScriptingEngineCompiledFunc objects. */ ValkeyModuleScriptingEngineCreateFunctionsLibraryFunc create_functions_library; /* The callback function called when `FCALL` command is called on a function * registered in this engine. */ ValkeyModuleScriptingEngineCallFunctionFunc call_function; /* Function callback to get current used memory by the engine. */ ValkeyModuleScriptingEngineGetUsedMemoryFunc get_used_memory; /* Function callback to return memory overhead for a given function. */ ValkeyModuleScriptingEngineGetFunctionMemoryOverheadFunc get_function_memory_overhead; /* Function callback to return memory overhead of the engine. */ ValkeyModuleScriptingEngineGetEngineMemoryOverheadFunc get_engine_memory_overhead; /* Function callback to free the memory of a registered engine function. */ ValkeyModuleScriptingEngineFreeFunctionFunc free_function; } ValkeyModuleScriptingEngineMethodsV1; /* Registers a new scripting engine in the server. * * - `engine_name`: the name of the scripting engine. This name will match * against the engine name specified in the script header using a shebang. * * - `engine_ctx`: engine specific context pointer. * * - `engine_methods`: the struct with the scripting engine callback functions * pointers. */ int ValkeyModule_RegisterScriptingEngine(ValkeyModuleCtx *ctx, const char *engine_name, void *engine_ctx, ValkeyModuleScriptingEngineMethods engine_methods); /* Removes the scripting engine from the server. * * `engine_name` is the name of the scripting engine. * */ int ValkeyModule_UnregisterScriptingEngine(ValkeyModuleCtx *ctx, const char *engine_name); ``` --------- Signed-off-by: Ricardo Dias <ricardo.dias@percona.com>
Valkey Test Suite
Overview
Integration tests are written in Tcl, a high-level, general-purpose, interpreted, dynamic programming language [source].
runtest
is the main entrance point for running integration tests.
For example, to run a single test;
./runtest --single unit/your_test_name
# For additional arguments, you may refer to the `runtest` script itself.
The normal execution mode of the test suite involves starting and manipulating
local valkey-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. All options are listed by
./runtest --help
. The following table is just a subset of the options:
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 Valkey Cluster compatibility mode. |
--large-memory |
Enables tests that consume more than 100MB |
--tls |
Run tests with TLS. See below. |
--tls-module |
Run tests with TLS, when TLS support is built as a module. |
--help |
Displays the full set of options. |
Running with TLS requires the following preparations:
- Build Valkey is TLS support, e.g. using
make BUILD_TLS=yes
, ormake BUILD_TLS=module
. - Run
./utils/gen-test-certs.sh
to generate a root CA and a server certificate. - Install TLS support for TCL, e.g. the
tcl-tls
package on Debian/Ubuntu.
Additional tests
Not all tests are included in the ./runtest
scripts. Some additional entry points are provided by the following scripts, which support a subset of the options listed above:
./runtest-cluster
runs more extensive tests for Valkey Cluster. Some cluster tests are included in./runtest
, but not all../runtest-sentinel
runs tests of Valkey Sentinel../runtests-module
runs tests of the module API.
Debugging
You can set a breakpoint and invoke a minimal debugger using the bp
function.
... your test code before break-point
bp 1
... your test code after break-point
The bp 1
will give back the tcl interpreter to the developer, and allow you to interactively print local variables (through puts
), run functions and so forth [source].
bp
takes a single argument, which is 1
for the case above, and is used to label a breakpoint with a string.
Labels are printed out when breakpoints are hit, so you can identify which breakpoint was triggered.
Breakpoints can be skipped by setting the global variable ::bp_skip
, and by providing the labels you want to skip.
The minimal debugger comes with the following predefined functions.
- Press
c
to continue past the breakpoint. - Press
i
to print local variables.
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
contexttags
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
