When adding a new ACL rule was added, an attempt was made to remove any "overlapping" rules. However, there when a match was found, the search was not resumed at the right location, but instead after the original position of the original command. For example, if the current rules were `-config +config|get` and a rule `+config` was added. It would identify that `-config` was matched, but it would skip over `+config|get`, leaving the compacted rule `-config +config`. This would be evaluated safely, but looks weird. This bug can only be triggered with subcommands, since that is the only way to have sequential matching rules. Resolves #12470. This is also only present in 7.2. I think there was also a minor risk of removing another valid rule, since it would start the search of the next command at an arbitrary point. I couldn't find a valid offset that would have cause a match using any of the existing commands that have subcommands with another command.
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
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
