Adds a server-specific parameter, "use_proxy_protocol". If enabled,
a header string is sent to the backend when a routing session connection
changes state to MXS_AUTH_STATE_CONNECTED. The string contains the real
client IP and port.
As 'client' is the fake DCB that emulates a client session,
poll.thread.id for the "dummy client" must be set to the current
thread_id that calls blr_start_master()
This affects both startup and START SLAVE (via mysql client)
When the Worker mechanism has been initialized the current_worker_id
of the calling thread is set to 0. That way, connections can be created
after Worker::init() has been called, but before the workers have been
started. Such connections will be handled by the worker that is running
in the main thread.
The function was no longer thread-safe as it used the obsolete per-thread
spinlocks to iterate over the DCBs. Now the function uses the newly added
WorkerTask class to iterate over them.
Since the new WorkerTask mechanism is far superion to dcb_foreach, the
latter is now deprecated.
A Worker::Task is an object that can be sent to a worker for
execution. The task is sent to the worker using the messaging
mechanism where the `execute` function of the task will be
called in the thread context of the worker.
There are two kinds of tasks; regular tasks and disposable tasks.
The former are just sent to the worker for execution while the
latter are sent and subsequently disposed of, once the task has
been executed.
A disposable task can be sent to either one worker or to all
workers. In the latter case, the task will be deleted once it
has been executed by all workers.
A semaphore can be associated with a regular task. Once the task
has been executed by the worker, the semaphore will automatically
be posted. That way, it is trivial to send a task for execution
to a worker and wait until the task has been executed. For instance:
Semaphore sem;
MyTask task;
pWorker->execute(&task, &sem);
sem.wait();
const MyResult& result = task.result();
The low level mechanism for posting and broadcasting messages will
be removed.
All workers share an epoll instance that is added level-triggered
to the epoll instance of each Worker. This is intended to be used
together with listening sockets.
When a listening socket is added to the shared epoll instance the
effect is that EPOLLIN will be active for it whenever there is a
connection pending on a listening socket added to that epoll
instance.
When that occurs all workers in their epoll_wait()-calls will return.
When the workers subsequently call epoll_wait() on the shared epoll
instance, that will return with an event provided some other thread(s)
has not yet called accept() on the listening socket.
As each worker extracts just one event at a time and calls accept just
once before calling epoll_wait(), it means that the client connections
will be distributed evenly across all workers, provided the load on
the workers is roughly the same. If it isn't then a worker with less
load will get more connections to handle (which will even out the load).
When a prepared statement preparation is being routed to the master, the
response is now collected into one buffer before being sent back. This
allows proper processing of pipelined prepared statements.
The same operations of protocol state and inspections of the buffer were
done in multiple places. Combining these into one function removes the
duplicated code.
The backend MySQL protocol can now collect prepared statement preparation
responses as well as result sets. This removes the need to parse and
collect the preparation responses at the router level.
Removed pthread_self calls from the backend modules. This makes the debug
logging easier to parse when the messages aren't prefixed with the verbose
thread ID.
All debug messages from dcb.cc were prefixed with the pthread ID of the
current thread. If the thread ID is needed, it should be logged by the log
manager.
