According to unix manuals, "Connecting to the socket object requires
read/write permission." -- mode 755 is useless for anybody
other than the owner.
Fixes#1696
Because of output buffer limits Redis internals had this idea of type of
clients: normal, pubsub, slave. It is possible to set different output
buffer limits for the three kinds of clients.
However all the macros and API were named after output buffer limit
classes, while the idea of a client type is a generic one that can be
reused.
This commit does two things:
1) Rename the API and defines with more general names.
2) Change the class of clients executing the MONITOR command from "slave"
to "normal".
"2" is a good idea because you want to have very special settings for
slaves, that are not a good idea for MONITOR clients that are instead
normal clients even if they are conceptually slave-alike (since it is a
push protocol).
The backward-compatibility breakage resulting from "2" is considered to
be minimal to care, since MONITOR is a debugging command, and because
anyway this change is not going to break the format or the behavior, but
just when a connection is closed on big output buffer issues.
In high RPS environments, the default listen backlog is not sufficient, so
giving users the power to configure it is the right approach, especially
since it requires only minor modifications to the code.
IPv6 support is not going to use IPv6 specific options, just it will be
possible to specify all the ipv4 / ipv6 addresses of the interfaces to
bind, otherwise connections will be accepted from all the interfaces in
both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.
This reverts commit 93570e179e96dc096b85aa0fcd5021b05208594a.
This feature allows the user to specify the minimum number of
connected replicas having a lag less or equal than the specified
amount of seconds for writes to be accepted.
Also the logfile option was modified to always have an explicit value
and to log to stdout when an empty string is used as log file.
Previously there was special handling of the string "stdout" that set
the logfile to NULL, this always required some special handling.
When keyspace events are enabled, the overhead is not sever but
noticeable, so this commit introduces the ability to select subclasses
of events in order to avoid to generate events the user is not
interested in.
The events can be selected using redis.conf or CONFIG SET / GET.
REDIS_HZ is the frequency our serverCron() function is called with.
A more frequent call to this function results into less latency when the
server is trying to handle very expansive background operations like
mass expires of a lot of keys at the same time.
Redis 2.4 used to have an HZ of 10. This was good enough with almost
every setup, but the incremental key expiration algorithm was working a
bit better under *extreme* pressure when HZ was set to 100 for Redis
2.6.
However for most users a latency spike of 30 milliseconds when million
of keys are expiring at the same time is acceptable, on the other hand a
default HZ of 100 in Redis 2.6 was causing idle instances to use some
CPU time compared to Redis 2.4. The CPU usage was in the order of 0.3%
for an idle instance, however this is a shame as more energy is consumed
by the server, if not important resources.
This commit introduces HZ as a runtime parameter, that can be queried by
INFO or CONFIG GET, and can be modified with CONFIG SET. At the same
time the default frequency is set back to 10.
In this way we default to a sane value of 10, but allows users to
easily switch to values up to 500 for near real-time applications if
needed and if they are willing to pay this small CPU usage penalty.
Two limits are added:
1) Up to SLOWLOG_ENTRY_MAX_ARGV arguments are logged.
2) Up to SLOWLOG_ENTRY_MAX_STRING bytes per argument are logged.
3) slowlog-max-len is set to 128 by default (was 1024).
The number of remaining arguments / bytes is logged in the entry
so that the user can understand better the nature of the logged command.
After considering the interaction between ability to delcare globals in
scripts using the 'global' function, and the complexities related to
hanlding replication and AOF in a sane way with globals AND ability to
turn protection On and Off, we reconsidered the design. The new design
makes clear that there is only one good way to write Redis scripts, that
is not using globals. In the rare cases state must be retained across
calls a Redis key can be used.
