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.
By storing the server statistics object in side the session, the lookup
involved in getting a worker-local value is avoided. Since the lookup is
done multiple times for a single query, it is beneficial to store it in
the session.
As the worker-local value is never deleted, it is safe to store a
reference to it in the session. It is also never updated concurrently so
no atomic operations are necessary.
The code now only checks the need for a keepalive ping once every
keepalive interval. Reduced the number of mxs_clock calls to one so that
all servers use the same value.
Minor renaming of the session state enum values. Also exposed the session
state stringification function in the public header and removed the
stringification macro.
The information stored for each prepared statement would not be cleared
until the end of the session. This is a problem if the sessions last for a
very long time as the stored information is unused once a COM_STMT_CLOSE
has been received.
In addition to this, the session command response maps were not cleared
correctly if all backends had processed all session commands.
For lifetime management keep RWBackends in a vector of unique_ptrs.
RWSplitSession keeps the unique_ptrs very private, and provides a vector
of plain pointers for all other interfaces.
This is essentially just a search and replace to change SRWBackend to
RWBackend* and SRWBackendList to PRWBackends, a vector of a raw
pointers. In the next few commits vector<unique_ptr<RWBackend>>
will be used for life time management.
There are a lot of diffs from the global search and replace. Only a few manual
edits had to be done.

By resetting the replay state the transaction replay can start again on a
new server. This allows the replay process work when a master server is
shutting down.
By delaying the replay for a second, we give the monitor a small chance to
adap to master failures. It'll also prevent rapid re-querying if multiple
transaction replays are supported.
A transaction that just completed will go through the start_trx_replay
function as from the client protocol's point of view the transaction is
still open. The debug assertion did not take this into account and would
fail if a successful commit was the last thing done on master that failed.
Also fixed the formatting.
When a server is stopping, it'll send an error to the client before
terminating the TCP connection. The code in readwritesplit would detect
this error and create a hangup event on the DCB. This would cause it to
appear as if the TCP connection was broken and the router would
immediately try to reconnect to the same server.
By ignoring the error and allowing the connection to die on its own, we
avoid immediately reconnecting and retrying any transactions on the
stopping server. This increases the chances that the monitor will see it
first and assign the server states correctly before the transaction replay
is attempted.
If the server where a query is being executed is shutting down,
readwritesplit should treat it as an error to make retrying of the query
possible.
By treating server shutdowns as network errors, the same code path that is
used for actual network errors can be taken. This removes the need for any
extra retrying logic for this particular case.
The transaction replay could get mixed up with new queries if the client
managed to perform one while the delayed routing was taking place. A
proper way to solve this would be to cork the client DCB until the
transaction is fully replayed. As this change would be relatively more
complex compared to simply labeling queries that are being retried the
corking implementation is left for later when a more complete solution can
be designed.
This commit also adds some of the missing info logging for the transaction
replaying which makes analysis of failures easier.
As the router is the only one that knows what backends a particular
statement has been sent to, it is the responsibility of the router
to keep the session bookkeeping up to date. If it doesn't we will
know what statements a session has received (provided at least some
component in the routing chain has RCAP_TYPE_STMT_INPUT capability),
but not how long their processing took. Currently only readwritesplit
does that.
All queries are stored and not just COM_QUERY as that makes the
overall bookkeeping simpler; at clientReply() time we do not need to
know whether or not to bookkeep information, we can just do it.
When session information is queried for, we report as much information
we have available.
With causal_reads enabled, the query would return with an error if the
slave was not able to catch up to the master fast enough. By automatically
retrying the query on the master, we're guaranteed that a valid result is
always returned to the client.
The readwritesplit transaction management was a large part of the
clientReply function. Moving it into a separate function clarifies the
clientReply function by hiding the comments and details of the transaction
management.
By splitting the processing and state querying into two separate
functions, the result can be inspected multiple times without triggering
the result processing.
The additions into the server.h header used C++ language which caused C
programs to fail to compile. Moved the implementation of the EMAverage
class into the private Server class in the server.hh header and exposed it
via functions in the server.h header. Also temporarily moved
almost_equal_server_scores into the public server.hh as there is no
service.hh header.
See script directory for method. The script to run in the top level
MaxScale directory is called maxscale-uncrustify.sh, which uses
another script, list-src, from the same directory (so you need to set
your PATH). The uncrustify version was 0.66.
Changes that allow slow or new servers to quickly apply samples towards the
server average. The most important changes are to not ignore the first N samples,
and apply an average to the server as soon as there is one available.
The new ResponseStat::make_valid() will use filter samples to add an average,
if no averages have yet been added, even if the number of filter samples is less
than the filter limit.
The main piece of code, slave selection (backend_cmp_response_time), uses the available
method of pair-wise comparison of slaves. This will be changed to selection using all
available slaves, along with removal of hard coded values.
The configuration doesn't need to be contained in shared pointer as each
session holds its own version of it. This removes most of the overhead in
configuration reloading. The only thing that's left is any overhead added
by the use of thread-local storage.
The configuration used the wrong parameter name. The test also did not
explicitly enable tracking of the last_gtid variable which caused it to
fail if it wasn't already on.
The transaction migration in the case of a changed master never worked as
transaction replay would only be triggered when the master fails. To cover
this case, the transaction replay just needs to be started when the need
for a transaction migration is detected.
To help diagnose the behavior, the Trx class no longer logs a message when
a transaction is closed. This is now done by readwritesplit which has more
knowledge of the context in which the transaction is closed.
If a transaction is replayed, queued commands must not be processed. The
exception to this rule is when pending session commands are executed
before the first statement in the replayed transaction is executed.
If transaction replaying was enabled and a result was returned in more
than one call to clientReply, a NULL value would be added to the statement
which in turn would trigger a debug assertion.
Similarly any following statements in the transaction would be executed
regardless of whether the result was complete.
Renamed the statement execution function to better describe what it does.
Extended the basic functional test case to cover this.
By using a shared pointer instead of a plain object, we can replace the
router configuration without it affecting existing sessions. This is a
change that is required to enable runtime reconfiguration of
readwritesplit.
