The `monitoruser` and `monitorpw` parameters were mislabeled as `monuser`
and `monpw`. To allow backwards compatibility, the `monuser` and `monpw`
still work as aliases for the correct commands.
The help messages are now more descriptive and have usage information in
them. This should help users use the commands without relying on the
online documentation.
The authenticators should have a similar way to print diagnostic
information as filter and routers do. This allows the authenticators to
print the users in their own format.
In the future, all the diagnostic entry points should be changed so that
they return a structure that contains the information in a standard
form. This information can then be formatted in different ways by other
modules.
They are not particularly useful, they surely are not used
and impose a small cost for every event extracted from the
poll sets.
This commit only removes the maxadmin commands, subsequent
commits will remove the actual code.
This header defines some general functions and maxscale main() return
values. Most of it is still public, but there were some functions
which were moved to a core header.
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.
The external config.h header defined functions and structures that are
intended to be used by modules. The internal header contains functions
that are used only by the MaxScale core.
To test the configuration validation and default value generation, the
functions needed to be refactored to allow parameters to be passed
directly to the function.
Some uses of monitorStart didn't pass the monitor parameters to the
function call. This caused runtime configuration of monitors to not have
any parameters as they never got their parameters.
The MXS_MODULDE object now contains optinal pointers for functions
to be called att process and thread startup and shutdown. Since the
functions were added to the end, strictly speaking, all structures
would not have needed to have been modified, but better to be
explicit. In a subsequent change, these will be called.
C++ does not support flexible arrays, so for the time being C++
modules are restricted to 10 parameters. Better approach is to
factor out the parameters to a separate array and then just store
a pointer to that array in MXS_MODULE.
The MODULE_INFO is now the main object which is used by modules to convey
information to the MaxScale core. The MXS_MODULE name is more apt as it
now contains the actual module definition.
The old MODULES structure was moved into load_utils.c as an internal
implementation and was renamed so that it is not confused with the new
MODULE structure.
The modules are now declared with a common macro. This allows future
additions to the module loading process while also making the loaded
symbol name a constant.
This allows modules to only expose one entry point with a consistent
signature. In the future, this could be used to implement declarations of
module parameters.
Using the unique ID for the session is easier to use than an address. This
also allows the removal of all pointer values from the maxadmin output
which is never useful to the end user.
After upgrades, it is usually useful to see which version of MaxScale is
running. By adding a command, we can see the actual version of the running
daemon process instead of the version of the current binary.
The detailed output of the new help command was a bit too densely packed
for some commands.
Added missing values for the `alter server` command help output.
Adding a server to multiple monitors is forbidden. This should be detected
and reported to the end user.
The information provided by the config_runtime system to the client isn't
as detailed as it could be. Some sort of an error message stack should be
added so that client facing interfaces could properly report the reason
for the failure. Currently the only way to detect the reason of the
failure is to parse the log files.
The errors were detected but the code proceeded to call various functions
with bad pointers. This led to a crash if a bad server name was given to
'show server'.
The module commands operations are now listed as `commands` instead of
`functions`. The output was also formatted and an optional filtering was
added to the `list commands` call.
Maxadmin can now create and destroy monitors. The created monitors are not
started as they would be useless without added servers and configuration
parameters.
The code prevented scaling by imposing global spinlocks for the DCBs and
SESSIONs. Removing this list means that a thread-local list must be taken
into use to replace it.
The listeners aren't really destroyed and are only stopped. Further
changes are required so that they won't be started again once they have
been destroyed.
