The new ACL key based permissions in #9974 require the key-specs (#8324) to have more explicit flags rather than just READ and WRITE. See discussion in #10040 This PR defines two groups of flags: One about how redis internally handles the key (mutually-exclusive). The other is about the logical operation done from the user's point of view (3 mutually exclusive write flags, and one read flag, all optional). In both groups, if we can't explicitly flag something as explicit read-only, delete-only, or insert-only, we flag it as `RW` or `UPDATE`. here's the definition from the code: ``` /* Key-spec flags * * -------------- */ /* The following refer what the command actually does with the value or metadata * of the key, and not necessarily the user data or how it affects it. * Each key-spec may must have exaclty one of these. Any operation that's not * distinctly deletion, overwrite or read-only would be marked as RW. */ #define CMD_KEY_RO (1ULL<<0) /* Read-Only - Reads the value of the key, but * doesn't necessarily returns it. */ #define CMD_KEY_RW (1ULL<<1) /* Read-Write - Modifies the data stored in the * value of the key or its metadata. */ #define CMD_KEY_OW (1ULL<<2) /* Overwrite - Overwrites the data stored in * the value of the key. */ #define CMD_KEY_RM (1ULL<<3) /* Deletes the key. */ /* The follwing refer to user data inside the value of the key, not the metadata * like LRU, type, cardinality. It refers to the logical operation on the user's * data (actual input strings / TTL), being used / returned / copied / changed, * It doesn't refer to modification or returning of metadata (like type, count, * presence of data). Any write that's not INSERT or DELETE, would be an UPADTE. * Each key-spec may have one of the writes with or without access, or none: */ #define CMD_KEY_ACCESS (1ULL<<4) /* Returns, copies or uses the user data from * the value of the key. */ #define CMD_KEY_UPDATE (1ULL<<5) /* Updates data to the value, new value may * depend on the old value. */ #define CMD_KEY_INSERT (1ULL<<6) /* Adds data to the value with no chance of, * modification or deletion of existing data. */ #define CMD_KEY_DELETE (1ULL<<7) /* Explicitly deletes some content * from the value of the key. */ ``` Unrelated changes: - generate-command-code.py is only compatible with python3 (modified the shabang) - generate-command-code.py print file on json parsing error - rename `shard_channel` key-spec flag to just `channel`. - add INCOMPLETE flag in input spec of SORT and SORT_RO
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 campatible 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 ). |
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 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
