The errors that are ignored by readwritesplit are now stored as the
current close reason in the Backend. This allows the information about the
error to be retained and it can be used later in the error handler to
display the true reason why the connection was closed.
When a connection is created, the size of the history that is about to be
replayed is known. Storing this and decrementing it each time a session
command is completed tells us when the Backend has finished replaying the
session command history. This can then be used to distinguish whether a
session command executed on a master should be retried or whether to
simply discard the connection.
If the routing of a session command fails due to problems with the backend
connections, a more verbose error message is logged. The added status
information in the Backend class makes tracking the original cause of the
problem a lot easier due to knowing where, when and why the connection was
closed.
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.
The state of the backend needs to be checked before any pending session
commands are executed on it.
Added debug assertions to catch invalid use of the status functions of
closed backends.
The `master_reconnection` parameter now controls both the reconnection of
the master server as well as the migration of the master server to another
server. Although these two cases appear to be different, the end result
from readwritesplit's point of view is the same and are thus controlled
with the same parameter.
The RWBackend class now resets its internal state when it is closed. This
allows readwritesplit to handle the case when a result was expected from
the master but the master died before the result was returned. The same
code should also handle slave connection failures mid-result, allowing
Backend reuse.
Added a test case that verifies the new functionality when combined with
`master_failure_mode=error_on_write`.
Moved session command execution into the Backend class itself as the
session commands are defined as a related part of it. This allows all
connections to execute session commands if some are available.
Removed explicit SERVER_REF usage in the readwritesplit connection
creation code and replaced it with SRWBackend. This allows the removal of
the get_root_master_backend function which duplicated the functionality in
get_root_master.
The Backend::dcb() method gives the raw pointer to the internal DCB. This
pointer is used by at least readwritesplit to map raw DCB pointers to
backends. To prevent stale pointers from being returned, m_dcb needs to be
set to NULL after it has been closed.
Inlined the getter/setter type functions that are often used. Profiling
shows that inlining the RWBackend get/set functions for the reply state
manipulation reduces the relative cost of the function to acceptable
levels. Inlining the Backend state function did not have as large an
effect but it appears contribute a slight performance boost.
Providing helper functions for the commonly used parts of the server makes
code easier to read. It also removes any possibility for formatting
problems by moving the URI and name string handling inside the Backend
class.
Added helper functions that check various server states. This makes the
readwritesplit code easier to read as the function names convey the
intention better than the macro invokations.
