The get_backend_from_dcb function needs to check that the backend is in
use before comparing the pointer. This prevents stale pointers from being
used and is logically more sound than relying on raw DCB matches.
The session command history is now compacted to contain only the first and
last execution of a session command. This should still allow most of the
more eccentric use-cases of user variables while keeping the session
command history smaller.
Added some convenience functions into the SessionCommand class to make the
pruning process easier.
Moved session command execution into the Backend class itself as the
session commands are defined as a related part of it. This allows all
connections to execute session commands if some are available.
Removed explicit SERVER_REF usage in the readwritesplit connection
creation code and replaced it with SRWBackend. This allows the removal of
the get_root_master_backend function which duplicated the functionality in
get_root_master.
The Backend::dcb() method gives the raw pointer to the internal DCB. This
pointer is used by at least readwritesplit to map raw DCB pointers to
backends. To prevent stale pointers from being returned, m_dcb needs to be
set to NULL after it has been closed.
Directly closing the client DCB in the backend protocol modules is not
correct anymore as the state of the session doesn't change when the client
DCB is closed. By propagating the shutdown of the session with a fake
hangup to the client DCB, the closing of the DCB is done only once.
Added debug assertions that make sure all DCBs are closed only
once. Removed redundant code in the backend protocol error handling code.
Inlined the getter/setter type functions that are often used. Profiling
shows that inlining the RWBackend get/set functions for the reply state
manipulation reduces the relative cost of the function to acceptable
levels. Inlining the Backend state function did not have as large an
effect but it appears contribute a slight performance boost.
The enums exposed by the connector are not intended to be used by the
users of the library. The fact that the protocol, and other, modules used
it was in violation of how the library is intended to be used.
Adding an internal mapping into MaxScale also removes some of the
dependencies that the core has on the connector.
Providing helper functions for the commonly used parts of the server makes
code easier to read. It also removes any possibility for formatting
problems by moving the URI and name string handling inside the Backend
class.
Added helper functions that check various server states. This makes the
readwritesplit code easier to read as the function names convey the
intention better than the macro invokations.
As the session commands are always appended to the end of the list, the
name should reflect that action. For this reason, the function was renamed
to append_session_command.
Readwritesplit supports replacement of slave servers by storing all
executed session commands in a list. To make the copying of this list a
bit cleaner, an overload for a list of session commands was added. This
will allow relatively smooth addition of server replacement to all router
modules that use the Backend class.
The class now allows simpler construction of session commands by
overloading the add_session_command with a version that accepts a const
reference to a shared pointer. This removes the need to copy the
references to the source buffer by calling gwbuf_clone.
Exposed the first session command as a const reference to allow
interaction with it. Currently, it is planned to be used to get the
session command position of each backend.
This is the first step to taking the Backend class into use. It is now
used in rwsplit_select_backends.cc and readwritesplit.hh. The module is
not yet functional and doesn't even compile.
Added some helper functions to the Backend class to get easier access to
the server referenced by the SERVER_REF and to check the state of the
backend.
The states are now internal to the Backend class. This simplifies the use
of the class by moving the burder of state tracking to the class
itself.
Refactored the way the schemarouter uses the Backend class.
Also fixed a memory leak in the schemarouter when `ignore_databases_regex`
was used..
Using the same implementation of the Backend and SessionCommand classes in
both schemarouter and readwritesplit will prevent duplication of code.
This commit only splits the generic parts of the class to a Backend class
which the schemarouter then extends. The session commands for both routers
are similar so they require no special handling.
