      Include sys/wait.h to avoid compiler warning · 8a8e560b
      Jan-Erik Rediger authored
      gcc warned about an implicit declaration of function 'wait3'.
      Including this header fixes this.

      Sentinel: abort failover if no good slave is available. · 374eed7d
      antirez authored
      The previous behavior of the state machine was to wait some time and
      retry the slave selection, but this is not robust enough against drastic
      changes in the conditions of the monitored instances.
      
      What we do now when the slave selection fails is to abort the failover
      and return back monitoring the master. If the ODOWN condition is still
      present a new failover will be triggered and so forth.
      
      This commit also refactors the code we use to abort a failover.

      Prevent a spurious +sdown event on switch. · f8a19e32
      antirez authored
      When we reset the master we should start with clean timestamps for ping
      replies otherwise we'll detect a spurious +sdown event, because on
      +master-switch event the previous master instance was probably in +sdown
      condition. Since we updated the address we should count time from
      scratch again.
      
      Also this commit makes sure to explicitly reset the count of pending
      commands, now we can do this because of the new way the hiredis link
      is closed.

      Sentinel: changes to connection handling and redirection. · e47236d8
      antirez authored
      We disconnect the Redis instances hiredis link in a more robust way now.
      Also we change the way we perform the redirection for the +switch-master
      event, that is not just an instance reset with an address change.
      
      Using the same system we now implement the +redirect-to-master event
      that is triggered by an instance that is configured to be master but
      found to be a slave at the first INFO reply. In that case we monitor the
      master instead, logging the incident as an event.

      Sentinel: check that instance still exists in reply callbacks. · 8ab7e998
      antirez authored
      We can't be sure the instance object still exists when the reply
      callback is called.

      Sentinel: more robust failover detection as observer. · e01a415d
      antirez authored
      Sentinel observers detect failover checking if a slave attached to the
      monitored master turns into its replication state from slave to master.
      However while this change may in theory only happen after a SLAVEOF NO
      ONE command, in practie it is very easy to reboot a slave instance with
      a wrong configuration that turns it into a master, especially if it was
      a past master before a successfull failover.
      
      This commit changes the detection policy so that if an instance goes
      from slave to master, but at the same time the runid has changed, we
      sense a reboot, and in that case we don't detect a failover at all.
      
      This commit also introduces the "reboot" sentinel event, that is logged
      at "warning" level (so this will trigger an admin notification).
      
      The commit also fixes a problem in the disconnect handler that assumed
      that the instance object always existed, that is not the case. Now we
      no longer assume that redisAsyncFree() will call the disconnection
      handler before returning.

      First implementation of Redis Sentinel. · 120ba392
      antirez authored
      This commit implements the first, beta quality implementation of Redis
      Sentinel, a distributed monitoring system for Redis with notification
      and automatic failover capabilities.
