Logging the pipe buffer size on startup will tell how large it was at the
time when MaxScale read it. If there are some abnormalities in it, this
will make it visible.
Logging the worker ID when the posting of a message fails will tell which
particular worker it was. For example, if the worker in question is the
main worker (i.e. ID 0), we know there's something that's blocking the
processing.
name_lookup() now returns all results given by getnameinfo(). When searching
for a server, finding one matching address in the lookup-results is enough for
a match.
Also, added a test for name_lookup(). The test is minimal on its own, as hardcoded
test cases are not generally valid.
When matching hostnames between MaxScale server configuration and the
SHOW SLAVE STATUS-output, use DNS-resolution if a simple string comparison
doesn't find an answer. Results of the resolution are saved to avoid
repeating the operation for the same address.
By having a separate FINISHED state and a STOPPED state, it is possible to
know at which point in the worker's lifetime an event is done. Posting of
messages before a worker is started is allowed but posting them after the
worker has stopped is not.
This fixes avrorouter related failures and all other failures that stem
from worker messages being ignored at startup.
Increasing counter sizes from int to long for averages.
Rename random functions to end with _co instead of _exclusive to
indicate range [close, open[, and to allow future suffixes oc, cc and oo.
Previously, runtime monitor modifications could directly alter monitor fields,
which could leave the text-form parameters and reality out-of-sync. Also,
the configure-function was not called for the entire monitor-object, only the
module-implementation.
Now, all modifications go through the overridden configure-function, which calls the
base-class function. As most configuration changes are given in text-form, this
removes the need for specific setters. The only exceptions are the server add/remove
operations, which must modify the text-form serverlist.
Sometimes that's what you want, but primarily for completeness'
sake and it makes AUTO more sensical as it essentially chooses
beteen DIRECT and QUEUED mode.
A multi HTTP GET can now be performed so that the caller
drives the polling of results.
This can now be used so that inside a monitor worker, the delays
are handled using delayed calls. Consequently, the monitor worker
event loop can remain responsive even though the Clustrix nodes
are being polled.
