This commit adds a new parameter that, when enabled, prunes the session
command history to a known length. This makes it possible to keep a
client-side pooled connection open indefinitely at the cost of making
reconnections theoretically unsafe. In practice the maximum history length
can be set to a value that encompasses a single session using the pooled
connection with no risk to session state integrity. The default history
length of 50 commands is quite likely to be adequate for the majority of
use-cases.
When the connection state is reset by executing a COM_CHANGE_USER or
COM_RESET_CONNECTION, readwritesplit does not need to store the session
command history that was executed before it. With this, pooled connections
will effectively behave like normal connections if the pooling mechanism
is smart enough to reset the connection. This also prevents unwanted
visibility into the session states of other connections.
If the routing of a session command fails due to problems with the backend
connections, a more verbose error message is logged. The added status
information in the Backend class makes tracking the original cause of the
problem a lot easier due to knowing where, when and why the connection was
closed.
If a server was not chosen as the target of a routing hint, the server
status would not be logged. By logging the server state in the message, it
is easier to figure out why a server wasn't chosen as the routing target.
Both the replication lag and the message printing state are saved in SERVER,
although the values are mostly used by readwritesplit. A log message is printed
both when a server goes over the limit and when it comes back below.
Because of concurrency issues, a message may be printed multiple times before
different threads detect the new message state.
Documentation updated to explain the change.
There is a race condition between the addition of the DCB into epoll and
the execution of the event that initiates the protocol pointer for the DCB
and sends the handshake to the client. If a hangup event would occur
before the handshake would be sent, it would be possible that the DCB
would get freed before the code that sends the handshake is executed.
By picking the worker who owns the DCB before the DCB is placed into the
owner's epoll instance, we make sure no events arrive on the DCB while the
control is transferred from the accepting worker to the owning
worker.
Fixed the documentation on the arguments to maxkeys, which is a directory,
and added a short paragraph about alternative key file locations. Also
documented that keys are read from the directory where the `datadir`
parameter points to.
The Galera documentation tells us to use the galera_new_cluster command to
start a new Galera cluster. This should prevent the problems of nodes
failing to join the cluster either on the initial startup or after a node
goes down.
When poll_add_dcb was called for a DCB that once was polling system but
was subsequently removed, the DCB would appear twice in the worker's list
of DCBs. This caused a hang when the DCB was the last one in the worker's
list and dcb_foreach_local would be called.
To prevent the aforementioned problem, the DCBs are now added and removed
directly to and from the workers instead of indirectly via poll_add_dcb
and poll_remove_dcb.
If the connection to the master is lost, knowing what type of an error
caused the call to handleError helps deduce what was the real reason for
it. Logging the idle time of the connection helps detect when the
wait_timeout of a connection is exceeded.
The script adds config and log files into a zip archive. Passwords in
config files are censored. Also attempts to read current status by calling
maxctrl. If core-file exists, runs gdb on it to gather call stack.
The script is installed to the binary file directory.
The test now uses maxctrl to count how many connections there are. This
helps avoid creating new users on the database and works around the slave
syncing problems.
