The testing framework extended the public struct, not the private
one. Also moved the internal Session class inside the mxs namespace to
prevent conflicts with the mock testing Session class.
The filter relationships of a service are now interpreted as an ordered
list of filters being used by the service. As the relationship data in the
JSON API specification is represented as an array, it does not prevent
multiple relationships from appearing. For MaxScale, this means that
interpreting the filter's order does not break it.
As the filters are only passed as a pipe separated list when the
configuration is being processed, there's no need to have the interface
conform to that. Passing a list of filter names makes it more flexible and
will make it's use in the runtime configuration easier.
The Session class now contains all of the C++ objects that were previously
in the MXS_SESSION struct. It is also allocated with new but all
initialization is still done outside of the Session in session_alloc_body.
This commit will not compile as it is a part of a set of commits that make
parts of the session private.
The service now generates the configuration file that represents the
serialized form of it. Also removed the unused service_serialize_servers
function.
The services will now store a local copy of the filter lists in the worker
local data associated with the service. This removes the instance level
lock and removes the performance penalty that was previously imposed by
it.
The only remaining performance "regression" compared to 2.2 is the extra
two atomic operations per filter that a session does when it is being
created. This is quite hard to get rid of without significant amounts code
and will hopefully be just a drop in the ocean.
The most relevant string variables of a service are now duplicated as C++
strings. This should ease the eventual transition to a fully C++ internal
representation of the service. The array of refresh rates was also wrapped
inside a std::vector to remove the need to manually manage memory.
Separated the SERVICE_USER struct into its individual components as there
was no real need to have them inside a struct.
The filters can now be altered at runtime. Currently, the filter usage
uses a service level lock. The next is to allocate a per-service key to
the worker local data and use that to orchestrate the storage of the
filter lists.
Removed the explicit setters for the service parameters. Not all of them
were implemented and they were only used internally. Moved the parameter
validation and update processing inside the Service class to reduce the
load on the other parts of the core.
The service now has a private std::mutex that is used for
synchronization.
Renamed the vector of services to use snake_case.
Use lock guards with mutexes to make usage easier and safer. This makes
the code smaller as well as slightly easier to read.
The service now uses a std::vector<SFilterDef> to store the filters it
uses. Most internal parts deal with the SFilterDef but debugcmd.cc still
moves raw pointers around (needs to be changed).
The FilterDef structs are now stored in a vector<std::shared_ptr>. This
should make it easier to use filters even if they are deleted before the
session using them closes.
All internal functions now take a smart point as a parameter. One
problematic case will be debugcmd.cc which moves information around as
pointers cast into unsigned longs.
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 switchover sometimes fails due to a broken connection when the STOP
SLAVE on the new master is executed. Nothing is logged on the server in
question and the error message simply states that the connection was lost
in the middle of a query.
Increasing the query_retries to 1 reduced the likelihood of failure from
about 1/3 of tests failing to roughly 1/6 of tests failing. Increasing it
to 5 seems to remove it completely. As to what is the real reason this
happens, we do not yet know.
Enabling it with a value of 1 should remove the vast majority of
connection related problems that appear in MaxScale. This should filter
out most of the errors caused by transient network problems.
If the posting of a message to a message queue fails due to the queue
being full, it is retried for a limited number of times. This is a
temporary fix to the problem that fixing MXS-1948 introduced. A proper
solution that leverages SO_REUSEPORT should be implemented in the next
major release.
