So as to allow the change date to be update at each maintenance
release, we need to have a separate license for each minor release.
In each minor branch there will then be a LICENCE.TXT symbolic link
that points to the actual file.
Generated the new MaxCtrl documentation with the new help output. The help
output now doesn't auto-wrap which causes lines to be longer but it
prevents broken Markdown formatting. It also makes it more readable on
wider terminals.
The number of sessions wasn't always incremented but it was always
decremented. This happened primarily when authentication failed. By making
the management of the counters a part of the object lifecycle, this
problem goes away.
Requiring contiguous buffers removes the need to use mxs::Buffer which
also removes the need to check for buffer boundaries.
Converted all the functions used by get_canonical into `static inline` so
that the compiler knows it can inline them. A few of them weren't `static`
which made the calls to the functions unnecessarily expensive.
The backslash was added instead of assigned. Since the value stored at
that position is always a null byte, assignment and addition would result
in the same outcome.
The help output of all the list and show commands now explains what each
field in the output table means. The generated table will be added at the
end of the help output.
The descriptions table looks like this:
Field Description
----- -----------
Version MaxScale version
Commit MaxScale commit ID
Started At Time when MaxScale was started
Activated At Time when MaxScale left passive mode
Uptime Time MaxScale has been running
Parameters Global MaxScale parameters
The fields are now defined separately and no longer use the object keys as
the names of the values. This makes it clearer as to what the field
definition actually is. Following commits will add a description key into
each object that makes it possible to easily build help output.
Cherry-picked 12e6ada259c38d535003c068a49bc525c33830d8 into 2.3.
Since the maxctrl build process uses add_custom_command, we must
explicitly list the sources that it depends on. With this change, maxctrl
is rebuild whenever the sources change.
The client count was incremented before authentication was complete, and
should be decremented if it fails. Otherwise service connection limit can
be easily reached.
The purpose is to recognize e.g. /_utf8mb4 0xD091D092D093/ as
a valid string. The rule actually accepts /id integer/, but in
case the statement is something else but an '_' immediately
followed by a character set, followed by a hex number, it will
be rejected by the server so no harm done.
During the build first binary packages are generated and copied into
'pre-repo' direcotory. Then binary repository is created and next
step is to copy repository into final directory according agreed
binary repo sirectories structure. After it temparal direcotries
are not needed.
The message now logs the instructions on how to increase the per-process
page limit for pipe buffers. This can happen if fs.pipe-max-size
multiplied by the number of workers exceeds the value of
fs.pipe-user-pages-soft multiplied by 4096.
Logging the pipe buffer size on startup will tell how large it was at the
time when MaxScale read it. If there are some abnormalities in it, this
will make it visible.
Logging the worker ID when the posting of a message fails will tell which
particular worker it was. For example, if the worker in question is the
main worker (i.e. ID 0), we know there's something that's blocking the
processing.
This allows the same verbose information to be logged in the cases where
it is of use. Mostly this information can be used to figure out why a
certain session was closed.
By doing the reconnection only when a new query arrives, we prevent the
excessive reconnecting that is done when a server's actual and monitored
states are in conflict.
