Adds an option to build RDMA support as a module:
make BUILD_RDMA=module
To start valkey-server with RDMA, use a command line like the following:
./src/valkey-server --loadmodule src/valkey-rdma.so \
port=6379 bind=xx.xx.xx.xx
* Implement server side of connection module only, this means we can
*NOT*
compile RDMA support as built-in.
* Add necessary information in README.md
* Support 'CONFIG SET/GET', for example, 'CONFIG Set rdma.port 6380',
then
check this by 'rdma res show cm_id' and valkey-cli (with RDMA support,
but not implemented in this patch).
* The full listeners show like:
listener0:name=tcp,bind=*,bind=-::*,port=6379
listener1:name=unix,bind=/var/run/valkey.sock
listener2:name=rdma,bind=xx.xx.xx.xx,bind=yy.yy.yy.yy,port=6379
listener3:name=tls,bind=*,bind=-::*,port=16379
Because the lack of RDMA support from TCL, use a simple C program to
test
Valkey Over RDMA (under tests/rdma/). This is a quite raw version with
basic
library dependence: libpthread, libibverbs, librdmacm. Run using the
script:
./runtest-rdma [ OPTIONS ]
To run RDMA in GitHub actions, a kernel module RXE for emulated soft
RDMA, needs
to be installed. The kernel module source code is fetched a repo
containing only
the RXE kernel driver from the Linux kernel, but stored in an separate
repo to
avoid cloning the whole Linux kernel repo.

Since 2021/06, I created a
[PR](https://github.com/redis/redis/pull/9161) for *Redis Over RDMA*
proposal. Then I did some work to [fully abstract connection and make
TLS dynamically loadable](https://github.com/redis/redis/pull/9320), a
new connection type could be built into Redis statically, or a separated
shared library(loaded by Redis on startup) since Redis 7.2.0.
Base on the new connection framework, I created a new
[PR](https://github.com/redis/redis/pull/11182), some
guys(@xiezhq-hermann @zhangyiming1201 @JSpewock @uvletter @FujiZ)
noticed, played and tested this PR. However, because of the lack of time
and knowledge from the maintainers, this PR has been pending about 2
years.
Related doc: [Introduce *Valkey Over RDMA*
specification](https://github.com/valkey-io/valkey-doc/pull/123). (same
as Redis, and this should be same)
Changes in this PR:
- implement *Valkey Over RDMA*. (compact the Valkey style)
Finally, if this feature is considered to merge, I volunteer to maintain
it.

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:
| 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 |
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
cto continue past the breakpoint. - Press
ito 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_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
