The causal_reads_timeout default value is too long when considering the
behavioral changes that MXS-2141 introduced. With a 10 second default
value, a result is returned to the client in a reasonable amount of time.
With causal_reads enabled, the query would return with an error if the
slave was not able to catch up to the master fast enough. By automatically
retrying the query on the master, we're guaranteed that a valid result is
always returned to the client.
Separated mmmon and ndbclustermon from the list of supported modules into
their own legacy section. Added a warning about the deprecation to the
relevant documents.
Also added the csmon link to the documentation contents.
Even though directly closing the socket is not very neat in the
architectural sense of things, it allows the best of both worlds: the
socket is instantly closed and is open for reuse while the listener struct
is still available as a reference.
This change needs to be revised when the listeners are refactored into
separate objects.
Updated documentation to reflect the change in behavior.
The cache size now refers to the total memory used by the cache instead of
the per thread limit. This makes it easier to use as well as more
predictable by removing the dependency on the number of worker threads.
Added a link and made the description more uniform with the rest of the
document. Also made the description slightly simpler so that it's easier
to understand.
Now the test program will
1) Write to each node in a Galera cluster and verify that the data
ends up in the slave.
2) At the end of 1) execute STOP SLAVE and START SLAVE to check that
replication can be stopped and started again (won't work unless
each node has the same server_id and value for @@log_bin_basename).
3) Block the node BLR is replicating from and expect it to connect
to the next configured master and that replication continues to
work. Do that for all nodes.
4) Stop MaxScale and restart it and expect 3) to work. That checks
that BLR saves all necessary information in master.ini and is
capable of reading it.
