12 years agoTry always committing deltas on 8.4 and higher.
David E. Wheeler [Fri, 7 Dec 2012 01:05:01 +0000 (17:05 -0800)]
Try always committing deltas on 8.4 and higher.

If we always log deltas and kick queues, we *never* need a `makedelta` option.
I'm not sure if this will really work in practice, however, for these reasons:

* I'm not entirely sure how Bucardo will handle the dupes. Given the previous
  presence of `makedelta`, I'm assuming fine, but even so I'm not sure we want
  to *always* enable them: it could create a lot more traffic between nodes.
  This could potentially be mediated by adding separate delta functions for
  each table and sync, but that might be a PITA.
* There is a failing test in t/40-postgres.t -- the very last test, in fact.
  Something related to customcols: Database D ends up with the rows values 30,
  60, 90, and 210 rather than 2, 3, 7, and 30. I am unable to figure out why
  this would be.
* There may be some other consequence of doing this that could break things
  that I, in my ignorance, and completely unaware of.
* This leaves older versions of PostgreSQL behind. But maybe we don't care?
  8.3 is mighty old (I suspect that today's release of 8.3.22 will be the
  last).

However, given all that, if this could be made to work, it's pretty damned
simple! If not, please revert this and we can come up with something else.

David E. Wheeler [Fri, 2 Nov 2012 21:40:36 +0000 (14:40 -0700)]
Add test for serialization failure.

Should work on Postgres 8.4 and higher, and skip all on older versions. Works
by adding a sequence and a trigger to a target table, and configuring the
trigger to fire only when the `session_replica_role` is "replica". This means
that it fires when data is `COPY`ed into the table from the source.

The trigger calls a PL/pgSQL function that consults a sequence, and thows a
serialization failure exception when the next value from the sequence is odd.
It does not throw it when its value is even. The result is that the first
attempt to copy the data into the table throws the serialization exception,
but the second attempt does not.

The test checks that the serialization failure happens by listening for the
`syncsleep` notification. If it doesn't come, there was no serialization
failure, and the test fails. If there is, it then tests that the sync finished
anyway and that the new data was copied over.

Resolves #29.

In passing, I've also changed the formatting of the message about the duration
of the sleep to use a stringification of that time, rather than turning it
into an integer, since the new default is 0.5 (and using `%f` yieled too many
decimal places). And if the sleep time is 0, we don't call sleep and send
a slightly different message.

It might make sense to send the sleep nofication only if we're going to sleep,
and then to always send another message, say serialretry, just before trying
again. I think that would be cleaner, since it does not actually always sleep.
Thoughts?

David E. Wheeler [Thu, 1 Nov 2012 20:37:18 +0000 (13:37 -0700)]
Replace --debug options with --log options.

`--debugdir`, `--debugsyslog`, and `--debugfile` have all been folded into
`--debug-destination`. This option may be specified multiple times, with the
values "syslog", "stderr", "stdout", "none", or a directory name. This means
you can log to a directory, syslog, and STDERR all at the same time if you
like. The old options are still around in name, but their values are used only
if `--log-destination` is not, and then they are adapted to it.

Implementation-wise, there is now a new method, _logto(), that returns a list
of code references, one for each destination. glog() simply passes the log
header and message to each code reference in turn. _logto() also notices when
the process has been forked and creates new code refernces as appropriate.
This is especially important when --log-separate is specified. If
--log-destination is passed "none", there will be no logging at all (even if
there are other calls to log-destination).

Relatedly:
* `--debugfilesep` has been renamed to `--log-separate`.
* `--debugname` has been renamed to `--log-extension`.
* `--cleandebugs` has been renamed to `log-clean`.
* If there are "stderr" or "stdout" destinations, the corrsponding file
  handles are no longer closed once the MCP forks.
* Logging to the warning file no longer happens when the string "Warning"
  appears in the log message, but when th elog leve is LOG_WARN.
