The mon_ping_or_connect_to_db resets the MYSQL handle which caused the
loss of the error message. Returning a new enumeration value for
authentication errors solves this problem.
By exposing a (currently undocumented) debug endpoint that lets one
monitor interval pass, we make the reuse of the monitor waiting
functionality a lot easier. With it, when MaxScale is started by the test
framework it knows that at least one monitor interval will have passed for
all monitors and that the system is ready to accept queries.
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.
No longer depends on monitor events as the other operations do not
either. The active_event/new_event detection was removed, as these
only protect against a rare situation. A similar feature which
protects all the cluster modifications will be implemented later.
The 'events' and 'script' config values were defined for every monitor.
Removed the extra definitions and moved the variables to MXS_MONITOR.
MariaDBMonitor was printing config values a second time, they are
already printed by the caller.
Moved the events enum definition to the internal header since it's no longer
required by modules.
Added a default config setting "all" to 'events' to clarify that it enables
all events.
The ssl parameters were defined as strings even thought they were actually
enums. The events parameter was also a string even though it was an enum.
Also added the missing "all" value to the events enum. This fixes the
regression of scripts not being launched on all events by default.
Moved the definition of the default version string where it should be and
removed the empty value check.
Tracking how many times the monitor has performed its monitoring allows
the test framework to consistently wait for an event instead of waiting
for a hard-coded time period. The MaxCtrl `api get` command can be used to
easily extract the numeric value.
StartMonitor() now takes a MXS_MONITOR_INSTANCE and returns
true, if the monitor could be started and false otherwise.
So, the setup is such that in createInstance(), the instance
data is created and then using startMonitor() and stopMonitor()
the monitor is started/stopped. Finally in destroyInstance(),
the actual instance data is deleted.
The following type name changes
MXS_MONITOR_OBJECT -> MXS_MONITOR_API
MXS_SPECIFIC_MONITOR -> MXS_MONITOR_INSTANCE
Further, the 'handle' instance variable of what used to be
called MXS_MONITOR_OBJECT has been renamed to 'api'.
An example, what used to look like
mon->module->stopMonitor(mon->handle);
now looks like
mon->api->stopMonitor(mon->instance);
which makes it more obvious what is going on.
CreateInstance() (renamed from initMonitor()) and destroyInstance()
(renamed from finishMonitor()) have now tentatively been
implemented for all monitors.
Next step is to
1) change the prototype of startMonitor() to
bool (*startMonitor)(MXS_SPECIFIC_MONITOR*,
const MXS_MONITOR_PARAMETER*);
and assume that mon->handle will always contain the
instance,
2) not delete any data in stopMonitor(),
3) add monitorCreateAll() that calls createInstance() for all
monitors (and call that in main()), and
4) add monitorDestroyAll() that calls destroyInstance() for
all monitors (and call that in main()).
Now, all monitor functions but startMonitor takes a
MXS_SPECIFIC_MONITOR instead of MXS_MONITOR. That is, startMonitor
is now like a static factory member returning a new specific
monitor instance and the other functions are like member functions
of that instance.
Instead of using void there's now a MXS_SPECIFIC_MONITOR struct
from which monitor specific types can be derived. This change
does not bring about other benefits than a bit of clarity but
this is the first step in clearing up the monitor API.
Previously, if the list contained servers that were not monitored by
the monitor yet were valid servers, an error value would be returned
and the monitor failed to start.
With this update, the non-monitored servers are simply ignored when
forming the final list.
Also, added printing of the list to diagnostics.
The MariaDB Connector-C headers that are built by MaxScale must be
included before any system headers.
Fixed code that explicitly included the <mysql.h> header to use the
<maxscale/protocol/mysql.h> wrapper instead.
"servers_no_promotion" is a comma-separated list of servers
which cannot be chosen when selecting a new master during failover
(auto or manual), or when automatically selecting a new master
for switchover (currently disabled).
The servers in the list are redirected normally and can be promoted
by switchover when manually selecting a new master.
If the API versions do not match, MaxScale will treat this as an
error. The API versioning would allow backwards compatible changes but the
functionality to handle that is not implemented in MaxScale.
Updated API versions based on changes done to module APIs in 2.2.
Now detects some erroneous situations before starting switchover.
Switchover can be activated without specifying current master.
In this case, the cluster master server is selected.
All modules now have an 8-bit range for capability flags. Currently only
the client side authenticator and protocol capability bits are loaded due
to the fact that backend versions of these modules don't relate to a
particular service.
The state of the monitored servers is only persisted if the states of the
servers have changed. This removes the unnecessary disk IO caused by the
writing on the monitor journal.
Using timestamps to detect whether MaxScale was active or passive can
cause problems if multiple events happen at the same time. This can be
avoided by separating events into actively observed and passively observed
events. This clarifies the logic by removing the ambiguity of timestamps.
As the monitoring threads are separate from the worker threads, it is
prudent to use atomic operations to modify and read the state of the
MaxScale. This will impose an happens-before relation between MaxScale
being set into passive mode and events being classified as being passively
observed.
Moved mon_process_failover() from monitor.cc to mysql_mon.cc. Renamed
some functions and variables related to previous failover functionality
to avoid confusion.
The parameter handling for monitors can now be done in a consistent manner
by establishing a rule that the monitor owns the parameter object as long
as it is running. This will allow parameters to be added and removed
safely both from outside and inside monitors.
Currently this functionality is only used by mysqlmon to disable failover
after an attempt to perform a failover has failed.
