The packet was generated with the wrong number of elements due to usage of
sizeof on an integer where the correct type was an uint8_t.
This only fixes the malformed packets but does not fix the root cause of
the problem. The affected rows and last insert ID are length encoded
integers which should be handled. The current code treats them as one byte
fields.
Since it's a cache, we do not need to retain the data from one
MaxScale invocation to the next. Consequently, we can turn off
write ahead logging completely if we simply wipe the RocksDB
database at each startup. In addition, the location of the
cache directory can now be specified explicitly, so it can be
placed, for instance, on a RAM disk.
The prepared statements were router according to the real type instead of
being router to the master. This was caused by the change in the route
target function.
This commit adds a free() to null_auth_free_client_data, which plugs
the memory leak in maxinfo.
Also, this commit fixes some segfaults when multiple threads are
running status_row() or variable_row(). The functions use
statically allocated index variables, which often go out-of-bounds
in concurrent use. This fix changes the indexes to thread-specific
variables, with allocating and deallocating. This does seem to slow
the functions down somewhat.
The code for the utility is now stored in a separate file. This also
removes the need to include testing headers from other directories.
Also added a function to reload rules that uses the newly modified rule
parsing mechanism. This can be used later on to update the rules at
runtime.
The maxadmin interface to add servers to objects now allows a maximum of
11 objects to be listed. This will make it simpler to add a server to both
a monitor and a service in one command.
The object names in the dbfwfilter weren't very descriptive and were not
that easy to comprehend. The same goes for function names which had
somewhat cryptic names.
This fix allows the gap detection and the writing of an IGNORABLE event
only if master_event_state == BLR_EVENT_DONE.
Note: The hole is not being created if the event is bigger than 16MB
With the use_sql_variables_in=master option, readwritesplit should route
all user variable modifications and reads with user variables to the
master.
Previously, the modification of user variables was grouped into generic
system variables which caused all modifications to system variables to go
to the master only. The router requires a finer grained distiction between
normal system variable modifications and user variable modifications.
With the improvements to the query classifier, readwritesplit now properly
routes all user variable operations to the master and other system
variable modifications to all servers.
With the advent of qc_get_field_info, columns can now be matched.
However, there is still some undeterminism caused by the table
information not containing contextual information (exactly where
is the table used).
Further, suppose table X contains the column A and table Y contains
the column B, then given a statement like
SELECT a, b from X, Z;
we cannot know whether a is in X or Z, or b in X or Z, without being
aware of the schema, which we currently are not.
Consequently, as long as MaxScale is not aware of the schema, some
heuristics must be applied. For instance, if exactly one table is
referred to, then we can assume that columns that are not explicitly
qualified are from that table.
The rule tests are currently rather rudimentary and need to be
expanded.
When a connection to the master fails, readwritesplit should always treat
it the same way. Previously, if a connection to the master was lost but it
hadn't lost the master status, the failure would be treated like a slave
server failure.
When a server is created in server_create, it sets the port to the default
of 3306 if no explicit port is defined. The code that called this function
still expected a minimum of three arguments: name, address and port.
When a service is added or removed from a service, a supplementary
configuration file is created. This allows MaxScale to survive restars and
unexpected downtime even if runtime changes to the servers of a service
have been made.
With these changes, it is possible to start MaxScale without any servers,
create servers, add the created servers to services and monitors and
restart Maxscale without losing the runtime configuration changes.
When a server is added to a monitor, an supplementary configuration file
is generated to persist this information. This will allow dynamic
modifications to server lists which will survive restarts and unexpected
downtime.
The monitor will only add new servers to its list of monitored
servers. This prevents duplicate entries in the list and makes it safe to
persist all used servers to the supplementary configuration file instead of only the ones that are not listed in the main configuration.
Servers created at runtime can now be configured to use SSL. The
configuration is only possible if the server is not in use.
The `alter server` command in maxadmin now takes a list of `key=value`
strings. This allows the user to define multiple alter operations with one
command.
The backend references now use a common closing function so that all
variables are reset to proper states. The stored queries weren't always
freed and they would leak memory if left open.
Server creation and allocation are now the same apart from the fact that
allocation only adds the server to the running configuration where as the
creation of a server also persist it to disk.
The server serialization should not be seen through the server.h API. This
allows the serialization method to change without actually having to
change the interfaces.
The MySQL Monitor did not reset the pointer to the root master reference
which would lead to a crash if the master was removed.
When service details were shown, it listed all servers that existed. Only
servers that haven't been removed or destroyed should be shown.
When a server is created via MaxAdmin, it will be serialized to disk. This
allows created servers to be retained through a restart of MaxScale.
Currently, all serialized objects are stored in one folder and there is no
structure in the created files. In the future, servers could be created
under a `servers` subdirectory so that it is easier to see what was
added. Whether there is a need for this will be seen.
The server credentials are only used if both the monuser and monpw
parameters are defined. This is a sort of a bugfix as a monitor connection
could use a username from server but a password from the monitor.
The address, port, monuser and monpw parameters of an existing server can
be changed at runtime. The support for enabling SSL will come in a later
commit.
Allowing servers to be modified could also be done by destroying and
recreating them. Since the servers are never actually destroyed, it is
better to allow the alteration of the existing ones.
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.
