The `user`, `password`, `version_string` and `weightby` values should be
allocated as a part of the service structure. This allows them to be
modified at runtime without having to worry about memory allocation
problems.
Although this removes the problem of reallocation, it still does not make
the updating of the strings thread-safe. This can cause invalid values to
be read from the service strings.
All routers except the binlogrouter now fully implement the JSON
diagnostic entry point. The binlogrouter needs to be handled in a separate
commit as it produces a large amount of diagnostic output.
When a prepared statement preparation is being routed to the master, the
response is now collected into one buffer before being sent back. This
allows proper processing of pipelined prepared statements.
When responses are being tracked, the execution of a LOAD DATA LOCAL
INFILE requires special handling. The readwritesplit now has a simple
state machine for the handling of the LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE command. This
should also make the code a bit more readable.
The readwritesplit didn't correctly process the response packets that
contained more than one part of a multi-result response. By processing the
packets in a loop, this problem is avoided.
Removed some of the more "unique" ways of sending error messages in favor
of simply writing the error to the client DCB. This removes the need for
extra logic in the clientReply response handling.
When statement based routing was used, it was possible that the current
statement being executed wasn't properly updated. Readwritesplit requires
it to track whether a command will create a response.
When batched queries are done through readwritesplit, it will now handle
them one by one. This allows batched queries to be used with
readwritesplit but it does impose a performance penalty when compared to
direct execution on the backend.
When log messages are written with both address and port information, IPv6
addresses can cause confusion if the normal address:port formatting is
used. The RFC 3986 suggests that all IPv6 addresses are expressed as a
bracket enclosed address optionally followed by the port that is separate
from the address by a colon.
In practice, the "all interfaces" address and port number 3306 can be
written in IPv4 numbers-and-dots notation as 0.0.0.0:3306 and in IPv6
notation as [::]:3306. Using the latter format in log messages keeps the
output consistent with all types of addresses.
The details of the standard can be found at the following addresses:
https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3986.txthttps://www.rfc-editor.org/std/std66.txt
The readwritesplit now sends COM_PING queries to backend servers that have
been idle for too long. The option is configured with the
`connection_keepalive` parameter.
The static module capabilities are now used to query the capabilities of
filters and routers. The new RCAP_TYPE_NOAUTH capability is also taken
into use. These changes removes the need for the `is_internal_service`
function.
The static capabilities declared in getCapabilities allows certain
capabilities to be queried before instances are created. The intended use
of this capability is to remove the need for the `is_internal_service`
function.
The order of the servers in the service definition could break the
master_accept_reads functionality.
When the first server defined in the service is a slave, it will always be
picked as the first candidate for reads. The master would only be
considered as a candidate for reads if no previous candidate was
available. For this reason, the master_accept_reads only worked when the
first server in the list was the master.
The routers no longer need to track the number of errors each DCB
receives. This is now done by the protocol modules.
The type of the DCB no longer needs to be checked in the handleError
implementation as the function is only called when a backend DCB fails.
Altered the function to assert that the DCB is a backend DCB in addition
to the existing assertions for non-NULL backend reference on function
return.
Move the fetching of the backend reference after the type of the DCB is
inspected in handleError. This removes the need to handle the case where
the returned bref is NULL and the DCB is a client DCB.
The highwater and lowwater callbacks were never registered for the client
DCBs in the binlogrouter.
The DCB hangup callbacks were never called by the core and were replaced
with fake hangup events in an earlier version.
Removed unused spinlocks from DCBs, sessions and the MySQL protocol
structs. They were used in a context where only one thread has access to
the structure.
Removed unused member variables from DCBs.
The combination of the default values of `disable_sescmd_history=false`
and `max_slave_connections=100%` does not make sense as it is not possible
to find a replacement slave in case an active one fails.
Moved some typedefs to router.h and server.h, changed a few
constants to these enums. Renamed some types in config.h to
remove "Gateway".
There are still some functions in the public header which are
only used in core, but they seem to fit the theme of public functions
so were not moved.
handleError can detect READ ONLY transaction set when problem_dcb ==
rses->forced_node->bref_dcb.
Session will be closed and rses->forced_node set to NULL
All modules now declare a name for the module. This is name is added as a
prefix to all messages logged by a module. The prefix should help
determine which part of the system logs a message.
