By storing the data gathere by readwritesplit inside the session, the
protocol will be aware of the state of the LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE
execution. This prevents misinterpretation of the data which previously
led to closed connections, effectively rendering LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE
unusable.
This change is a temporary solution to a problem that needs to be solved
at the protocol level. The changes required to implement this are too big
to add into a bug fix release.
Now that the exit handlers work correctly, the output of `maxscale
--version` no longer consists of a single line but multiple lines in both
stdout and stderr. Removing the printing to stderr guarantees that the
correct output is produced.
If a relationship isn't defined, it should not be removed. Only if a
relationship is change to a null relationship, should it be removed.
Also fixed the maxctrl test suite to verify that both it and the REST API
tests pass.
The data of the relationship should be set to null to delete the
relationship. Conceptually it is different from setting it to an empty
relationship but in practice both lead to the same end result.
Updated tests to use correct relationships and added test cases for
detection of invalid relationships.
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.
-Wunused-result warning in test_logthrottling.cc was causing error when
trying to build MaxScale from source. This warning can be silenced with by
putting the function triggering the warning in if-clause.
When the query queue does not contain a complete packet
(i.e. modutil_get_next_MySQL_packet return NULL), an informative dump of
how many bytes and what is stored is logged.
By aborting the process if memory runs out when a buffer needs to be made
contiguous, we rule out other, more subtle, errors. Failing as soon as a
possible when memory allocation fails gives better error messages.
The LocalClient micro-client required a reference to the session that was
valid at construction time. This is the reason why the previous
implementation used dcb_foreach to first gather the targets and then
execute queries on them. By replacing this reference with pointers to the
raw data it requires, we lift the requirement of the orignating session
being alive at construction time.
Now that the LocalClient no longer holds a reference to the session, the
killing of the connection does not have to be done on the same thread that
started the process. This prevents the deadlock that occurred when
concurrect dcb_foreach calls were made.
Replaced the unused dcb_foreach_parallel with a version of dcb_foreach
that allows iteration of DCBs local to this worker. The dcb_foreach_local
is the basis upon which all DCB access outside of administrative tasks
should be built on.
This change will introduce a regression in functionality: The client will
no longer receive an error if no connections match the KILL query
criteria. This is done to avoid having to synchronize the workers after
they have performed the killing of their own connections.
The dcb_foreach function is not safe to use from multiple threads at the
same time. This should be asserted by checking that the function is called
only from the main worker.
The addition of this assertion also implies that only administrative
operations should use the dcb_foreach function. To accommodate this
change, the KILL command iteration needs to be adjusted.
The runtime configuration of a MaxScale can now be exported to a single
file. This allows modifications made via runtime configuration commands to
be "committed" for later use.
The log manager is the only one that uses the mlist_t versioned list. The
counter that keeps track of the version number was not modified using
atomic operations meaning that the compiler is free to optimize away parts
of the lock-free versioning mechanism that uses it.
To prevent this optimization, the variable is declared volatile. A rewrite
is direly needed but it cannot be done in 2.2.
Due to the skewed accept distribution without SO_REUSEPORT, we use
round-robin assignment of workers for new client connections. This
provides better performance as work is more likely to be evenly
distributed across all threads.
Using a least-busy-worker algorithm would provide a more stable result but
this is not trivially simple to implement. For this reason, the
round-robin based approach was chosen for 2.2.
Prepared statements via readwritesplit need to have their IDs mapped from
the internal representation to the backend specific one. The RWBackend
class does this in its write method but the fix in commit
e561c3995c7396cf3749ccdf6a3357d7dd32c856 caused this to be bypassed and
the base version was always used.
If a session command produces a different result on the slave than it did
on the master, a warning is logged. This warning now also logs the query
that was being executed to make investigation of the problem easier.
Backend::execute_session_command would use the overridden write method
instead of the Backend::write method that it intended to use. This caused
session commands that did not expect a response to be in a state that
expected a result.
Also fixed RWBackend::write pass the response_type value to
Backend::write.
When a client connection is closed by MaxScale before the client initiates
a controlled closing of the connection, an error message is sent. This
error message now also explains why the connection was closed to make
problem resolution easier.
Servers in MaxScale can encrypt the connections without client keys and
certificates. As keys and certificates are no longer required, the CA
certificate must always be initialized.
When a listener is created at runtime or SSL is being enabled for an
already created listener, the ssl_verify_peer_certificate parameter can
now be defined.
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.
The two operations return different types of results and need to be
treated differently in order for them to be handled correctly in 2.2.
This fixes the unexpected internal state errors that happened in all 2.2
versions due to a wrong assumption made by readwritesplit. This fix is not
necessary for newer versions as the LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE processing is
done with a simpler, and more robust, method.
Single spot where an existing hint ptr was overwritten. Removed gwbuf_add_hint()
because it was adding hints at the opposite end compared to functions in hint.h.
Added hint_splice() to replace.
Defining the [maxscale] section in a configuration file that is not the
root configuration file is now treated as an error instead of silently
ignored.
- If a client DCB should be moved to some other worker than
the current one (cli and maxinfo), and that fails, the
thread id must be reset to that of the calling thread as
otherwise asserts will be triggered.
- If the creation of the first DCB fails, then the dcb list
for that thread will be NULL and thus must be accessed
with some caution.
