1. change jsonb_extract_string behavior: convert to string instead of NULL if the type of json path is not string
2. move jsonb tutorial doc to JSONB data type
#13195 left some unresolved issues. One of them is that some BE unit tests fail.
This PR fixes this issue. Now, we can run the command ./run-be-ut.sh --run successfully on macOS.
boost::stacktrace::stacktrace() has memory leak, so use glog internal func to print stacktrace.
The reason for the memory leak of boost::stacktrace is that a state is saved in the thread local of each thread but not actively released. The test found that each thread leaked about 100M after calling boost::stacktrace.
refer to:
boostorg/stacktrace#118boostorg/stacktrace#111
mem tracker can be logically divided into 4 layers: 1)process 2)type 3)query/load/compation task etc. 4)exec node etc.
type includes
enum Type {
GLOBAL = 0, // Life cycle is the same as the process, e.g. Cache and default Orphan
QUERY = 1, // Count the memory consumption of all Query tasks.
LOAD = 2, // Count the memory consumption of all Load tasks.
COMPACTION = 3, // Count the memory consumption of all Base and Cumulative tasks.
SCHEMA_CHANGE = 4, // Count the memory consumption of all SchemaChange tasks.
CLONE = 5, // Count the memory consumption of all EngineCloneTask. Note: Memory that does not contain make/release snapshots.
BATCHLOAD = 6, // Count the memory consumption of all EngineBatchLoadTask.
CONSISTENCY = 7 // Count the memory consumption of all EngineChecksumTask.
}
Object pointers are no longer saved between each layer, and the values of process and each type are periodically aggregated.
other fix:
In [fix](memtracker) Fix transmit_tracker null pointer because phamp is not thread safe #13528, I tried to separate the memory that was manually abandoned in the query from the orphan mem tracker. But in the actual test, the accuracy of this part of the memory cannot be guaranteed, so put it back to the orphan mem tracker again.
## Design
### Trigger
Every time when a rowset writer produces more than N (e.g. 10) segments, we trigger segment compaction. Note that only one segment compaction job for a single rowset at a time to ensure no recursing/queuing nightmare.
### Target Selection
We collect segments during every trigger. We skip big segments whose row num > M (e.g. 10000) coz we get little benefits from compacting them comparing our effort. Hence, we only pick the 'Longest Consecutive Small" segment group to do actual compaction.
### Compaction Process
A new thread pool is introduced to help do the job. We submit the above-mentioned 'Longest Consecutive Small" segment group to the pool. Then the worker thread does the followings:
- build a MergeIterator from the target segments
- create a new segment writer
- for each block readed from MergeIterator, the Writer append it
### SegID handling
SegID must remain consecutive after segment compaction.
If a rowset has small segments named seg_0, seg_1, seg_2, seg_3 and a big segment seg_4:
- we create a segment named "seg_0-3" to save compacted data for seg_0, seg_1, seg_2 and seg_3
- delete seg_0, seg_1, seg_2 and seg_3
- rename seg_0-3 to seg_0
- rename seg_4 to seg_1
It is worth noticing that we should wait inflight segment compaction tasks to finish before building rowset meta and committing this txn.
- this pr is used to fix the be core dump when import array.
- before the change, we import array by rapidjson string will core dump under the non-vectorized scenario.
- after the change, we can import array by rapidjson string successfully.
Previous logic of reverse function might not be strong enough to handle illegal character. For example, one one byte size character would be mistaken as one utf-8 character which occupies more than one byte space. And unfortunately exceeding the buffer space during future process.
There are some issues with the compile flag `-Wno-unused-but-set-variable` for clang.
1. `-Wno-unused-but-set-variable` should be set when building source by clang-15 on Linux. (#13000#13016)
2. On macOS Monterey, Apple Clang 13 may treat it as a unknown warning option and the compilation process may interrupt.
This PR introduces a better way to make this compile flag more portable.
1. Test whether the compiler recognizes this flag.
2. Add this flag if the compiler recognizes it.
# Proposed changes
This PR fixed lots of issues when building from source on macOS with Apple M1 chip.
## ATTENTION
The job for supporting macOS with Apple M1 chip is too big and there are lots of unresolved issues during runtime:
1. Some errors with memory tracker occur when BE (RELEASE) starts.
2. Some UT cases fail.
...
Temporarily, the following changes are made on macOS to start BE successfully.
1. Disable memory tracker.
2. Use tcmalloc instead of jemalloc.
This PR kicks off the job. Guys who are interested in this job can continue to fix these runtime issues.
## Use case
```shell
./build.sh -j 8 --be --clean
cd output/be/bin
ulimit -n 60000
./start_be.sh --daemon
```
## Something else
It takes around _**10+**_ minutes to build BE (with prebuilt third-parties) on macOS with M1 chip. We will improve the development experience on macOS greatly when we finish the adaptation job.
disable page cache by default
disable chunk allocator by default
not use chunk allocator for vectorized allocator by default
add a new config memory_linear_growth_threshold = 128Mb, not allocate memory by RoundUpToPowerOf2 if the allocated size is larger than this threshold. This config is added to MemPool, ChunkAllocator, PodArray, Arena.
When the physical memory of the process reaches 90% of the mem limit, trigger the load channel mgr to brush down
The default value of be.conf mem_limit is changed from 90% to 80%, and stability is the priority.
