Starting from Redis 7.0 (#9890) we started wrapping everything a command propagates with MULTI/EXEC. The problem is that both SCAN and RANDOMKEY can lazy-expire arbitrary keys (similar behavior to active-expire), and put DELs in a transaction. Fix: When these commands are called without a parent exec-unit (e.g. not in EVAL or MULTI) we avoid wrapping their DELs in a transaction (for the same reasons active-expire and eviction avoids a transaction) This PR adds a per-command flag that indicates that the command may touch arbitrary keys (not the ones in the arguments), and uses that flag to avoid the MULTI-EXEC. For now, this flag is internal, since we're considering other solutions for the future. Note for cluster mode: if SCAN/RANDOMKEY is inside EVAL/MULTI it can still cause the same situation (as it always did), but it won't cause a CROSSSLOT because replicas and AOF do not perform slot checks. The problem with the above is mainly for 3rd party ecosystem tools that propagate commands from master to master, or feed an AOF file with redis-cli into a master. This PR aims to fix the regression in redis 7.0, and we opened #11792 to try to handle the bigger problem with lazy expire better for another release.
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_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
