I've renamed maxmemoryToString to evictPolicyToString since that is
more accurate (and easier to mentally connect with the correct data), as
well as updated the function to user server.maxmemory_policy rather than
server.maxmemory. Now with a default config it is actually returning
the correct policy rather than volatile-lru.
An exposed Redis instance on the internet can be cause of serious
issues. Since Redis, by default, binds to all the interfaces, it is easy
to forget an instance without any protection layer, for error.
Protected mode try to address this feature in a soft way, providing a
layer of protection, but giving clues to Redis users about why the
server is not accepting connections.
When protected mode is enabeld (the default), and if there are no
minumum hints about the fact the server is properly configured (no
"bind" directive is used in order to restrict the server to certain
interfaces, nor a password is set), clients connecting from external
intefaces are refused with an error explaining what to do in order to
fix the issue.
Clients connecting from the IPv4 and IPv6 lookback interfaces are still
accepted normally, similarly Unix domain socket connections are not
restricted in any way.
Not perfect since The Solution IMHO is to have a DSL with a table of
configuration functions with type, limits, and aux functions to handle
the odd ones. However this hacky macro solution is already better and
forces to put limits in the range of numerical fields.
More field types to be refactored in the next commits hopefully.
Adds configuration option 'supervised [no | upstart | systemd | auto]'
Also removed 'bzero' from the previous implementation because it's 2015.
(We could actually statically initialize those structs, but clang
throws an invalid warning when we try, so it looks bad even though it
isn't bad.)
Fixes#2264
This removes:
- list-max-ziplist-entries
- list-max-ziplist-value
This adds:
- list-max-ziplist-size
- list-compress-depth
Also updates config file with new sections and updates
tests to use quicklist settings instead of old list settings.
The original implementation was modified in order to allow to
selectively announce a different IP or port, and to rewrite the two
options in the config file after a rewrite.
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.
Everywhere in the Redis code base, maxclients is treated
as an int with (int)maxclients or `maxclients = atoi(source)`,
so let's make maxclients an int.
This fixes a bug where someone could specify a negative maxclients
on startup and it would work (as well as set maxclients very high)
because:
unsigned int maxclients;
char *update = "-300";
maxclients = atoi(update);
if (maxclients < 1) goto fail;
But, (maxclients < 1) can only catch the case when maxclients
is exactly 0. maxclients happily sets itself to -300, which isn't
-300, but rather 4294966996, which isn't < 1, so... everything
"worked."
maxclients config parsing checks for the case of < 1, but maxclients
CONFIG SET parsing was checking for case of < 0 (allowing
maxclients to be set to 0). CONFIG SET parsing is now updated to
match config parsing of < 1.
It's tempting to add a MINIMUM_CLIENTS define, but... I didn't.
These changes were inspired by antirez#356, but this doesn't
fix that issue.
This value needs to be set to zero (in addition to
stat_numcommands) or else people may see
a negative operations per second count after they
run CONFIG RESETSTAT.
