Moved some typedefs to router.h and server.h, changed a few
constants to these enums. Renamed some types in config.h to
remove "Gateway".
There are still some functions in the public header which are
only used in core, but they seem to fit the theme of public functions
so were not moved.
MXS-391. The user hosts in the SQL backends can now contain wildcard
addresses (e.g.basicuser@%.com or someuser@myhost_.org). Authenticating
these types of users is rather heavy since it requires looking
up the client host name.
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.
Previously, these were discarded. This patch adds a function to
"merge" the mask to the ip so that it's in the form which
normalize_hostname expects (using % as wildcard). Only simple masks
with 255:s and 0:s are accepted. Any other combinations may leave
the hostname in a garbled state which will cause it to be discarded
later.
MaxScale can now start without any defined monitors. This allows the core
services to be configured beforehand. With the changes to dynamic
modifications to servers, automatic scaling of slaves is possible.
Doing the checksum matching after memory is allocated and all the work is
done is not very efficient. A simpler solution is to always replace the
users when we reload them.
Replacing the users every time the service users are reloaded will not
cause a degradation in performance because the previous implementation
already does all the extra work but then just discards it.
A faster solution would be to first query the server and request some sort
of a checksum based on the result set the users query would
create. Currently, this can be done inside a stored procedure but it is
not very convenient for the average user. Another option would be to
generate a long string with GROUP_CONCAT but it is highly likely that some
internal buffer limit is hit before the complete value is calculated.
The dbusers.c was a MySQL protocol specific file which was used directly
by some of the modules.
Added a new return value for the loadusers authenticator entry point which
allows fatal failures to occur when users are loaded. Currently this is
only taken into notice when the service is first started. If a listener
later returns a fatal error, it is only logged but the service stays in
operation.
Moved the MySQLAuth authenticator sources and the tests that relate to
this module into a subdirectory in the authenticator
directory. Eventually, all authenticators could have a subdirectory of
their own.
