Uses mostly the status functions for reading the flags. Strickly
speaking this breaks the REST API since in some cases (status combinations)
the printed string is different from what was printed before.
Replaced the previous RESULTSET with the new implementation. As the new
ResultSet doesn't have a JSON streaming capability, the MaxInfo JSON
interface has been removed. This should not be a big problem as the REST
API offers the same information in a more secure and structured way.
Comparing two fixed std::strings would have equal C strings but comparing
with operator== they would be different. This was a result of the string
modification done by fix_object_name.
Converted the internal header into a C++ header, added std::string
overload and fixed use of the function.
The id has now been moved from mxs::Worker to mxs::RoutingWorker
and the implications are felt in many places.
The primary need for the id was to be able to access worker specfic
data, maintained outside of a routing worker, when given a worker
(the id is used to index into an array). Slightly related to that
was the need to be able to iterate over all workers. That obviously
implies some kind of collection.
That causes all sorts of issues if there is a need for being able
to create and destroy a worker at runtime. With the id removed from
mxs::Worker all those issues are gone, and its perfectly ok to create
and destory mxs::Workers as needed.
Further, while there is a need to broadcast a particular message to
all _routing_ workers, it hardly makes sense to broadcast a particular
message too _all_ workers. Consequently, only routing workers are kept
in a collection and all static member functions dealing with all
workers (e.g. broadcast) have now been moved to mxs::RoutingWorker.
Now, instead of passing the id around we instead deal directly
with the worker pointer. Later the data in all those external arrays
will be moved into mxs::[Worker|RoutingWorker] so that worker related
data is maintained in exactly one place.
The parameter extraction caused a recursive lock of the server
spinlock. To work around this, an unlocked version of server_get_parameter
is needed.
Ideally, a lock-free setup would be used but due to this being a bug fix,
it will have to be done later on.
Returning the length of the value instead of a boolean allows the user to
know when the parameter value exceeded the buffer size passed as the
parameter.
The individual servers were missing a statistic that would give an
estimated query count. As there is no simple way to count queries for all
modules, counting the number of routed protocol packets is a suitable
substitute.
A new class mxs::Worker will be introduced and mxs::RoutingWorker
will be inherited from that. mxs::Worker will basically only be a
thread with a message-loop.
Once available, all current non-worker threads (but the one
implicitly created by microhttpd) can be creating by inheriting
from that; in practice that means the housekeeping thread, all
monitor threads and possibly the logging thread.
The benefit of this arrangement is that there then will be a general
mechanism for cross thread communication without having to use any
shared data structures.
The old hkheartbeat variable was changed to the mxs_clock() function that
simply wraps an atomic load of the variable. This allows it to be
correctly read by MaxScale as well as opening up the possibility of
converting the value load to a relaxed memory order read.
Renamed the header and associated macros. Removed inclusion of the
heartbeat header from the housekeeper header and added it to the files
that were missing it.
As the stale status is not a real status bit and it's used to retain the
history of a master, there is no need to print it in any output. This
output will only confuse users now that the stale status will not be
cleared from masters that go down.
The internal header directory conflicted with in-source builds causing a
build failure. This is fixed by renaming the internal header directory to
something other than maxscale.
The renaming pointed out a few problems in a couple of source files that
appeared to include internal headers when the headers were in fact public
headers.
Fixed maxctrl in-source builds by making the copying of the sources
optional.
