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. --------- Co-authored-by: Viktor Söderqvist <viktor.soderqvist@est.tech>
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
