BE can not graceful exit because some threads are running in endless
loop. This patch do the following optimization:
- Use the well encapsulated Thread and ThreadPool instead of std::thread
and std::vector<std::thread>
- Use CountDownLatch in thread's loop condition to avoid endless loop
- Introduce a new class Daemon for daemon works, like tcmalloc_gc,
memory_maintenance and calculate_metrics
- Decouple statistics type TaskWorkerPool and StorageEngine notification
by submit tasks to TaskWorkerPool's queue
- Reorder objects' stop and deconstruct in main(), i.e. stop network
services at first, then internal services
- Use libevent in pthreads mode, by calling evthread_use_pthreads(),
then EvHttpServer can exit gracefully in multi-threads
- Call brpc::Server's Stop() and ClearServices() explicitly
Redesign metrics to 3 layers:
MetricRegistry - MetricEntity - Metrics
MetricRegistry : the register center
MetricEntity : the entity registered on MetricRegistry. Generally a MetricRegistry can be registered on several
MetricEntities, each of MetricEntity is an independent entity, such as server, disk_devices, data_directories, thrift
clients and servers, and so on.
Metric : metrics of an entity. Such as fragment_requests_total on server entity, disk_bytes_read on a disk_device entity,
thrift_opened_clients on a thrift_client entity.
MetricPrototype: the type of a metric. MetricPrototype is a global variable, can be shared by the same metrics across
different MetricEntities.
Each test case in ExternalScanContextMgrTest may cost 1 minitue
which is too long, we'd better disable backgrounp scan context
gc to speed up unit test.
We can observe the workload of BE, and also it's a way to check
whether there is any problem in BE, like some container increase
too large and lead to OOM.
This patch add the following metrics:
```
Name Description
rowset_count_generated_and_in_use The total count of rowset id generated and in use since BE last start
unused_rowsets_count The total count of unused rowset waiting to be GC
broker_count The total count of brokers in management
data_stream_receiver_count The total count of data stream receivers in management
fragment_endpoint_count The total count of fragment endpoints of data stream in management, should always equal to data_stream_receiver_count
active_scan_context_count The total count of active scan contexts
plan_fragment_count The total count of plan fragments in executing
load_channel_count The total count of load channels in management
result_buffer_block_count The total count of result buffer blocks for queries, each block has a limited queue size (default 1024)
result_block_queue_count The total count of queues for fragments, each queue has a limited size (default 20, by config::max_memory_sink_batch_count)
routine_load_task_count The total count of routine load tasks in executing
small_file_cache_count The total count of cached small files' digest info
stream_load_pipe_count The total count of stream load pipes, each pipe has a limited buffer size (default 1M)
tablet_writer_count The total count of tablet writers
brpc_endpoint_stub_count The total count of brpc endpoints
```
In the past, when we want to modify some BE configs, we have to modify be.conf and then restart BE.
This patch provides a way to modify configs in the type of 'threshold', 'interval', 'enable flag'
when BE is running without restarting it.
You can update a single config once by BE's http API: `be_host:be_http_port/api/update_config?config_name=new_value`
