      Hopefully better memory test on crash. · a1c9c05e
      antirez authored
      The old test, designed to do a transformation on the bits that was
      invertible, in order to avoid touching the original memory content, was
      not effective as it was redis-server --test-memory. The former often
      reported OK while the latter was able to spot the error.
      
      So the test was substituted with one that may perform better, however
      the new one must backup the memory tested, so it tests memory in small
      pieces. This limits the effectiveness because of the CPU caches. However
      some attempt is made in order to trash the CPU cache between the fill
      and the check stages, but not for the addressing test unfortunately.
      
      We'll see if this test will be able to find errors where the old failed.

      CLIENT REPLY command implemented: ON, OFF and SKIP modes. · 86f0a2ee
      antirez authored
      Sometimes it can be useful for clients to completely disable replies
      from the Redis server. For example when the client sends fire and forget
      commands or performs a mass loading of data, or in caching contexts
      where new data is streamed constantly. In such contexts to use server
      time and bandwidth in order to send back replies to clients, which are
      going to be ignored, is a shame.
      
      Multiple mechanisms are possible to implement such a feature. For
      example it could be a feature of MULTI/EXEC, or a command prefix
      such as "NOREPLY SADD myset foo", or a different mechanism that allows
      to switch on/off requests using the CLIENT command.
      
      The MULTI/EXEC approach has the problem that transactions are not
      strictly part of the no-reply semantics, and if we want to insert a lot
      of data in a bulk way, creating a huge MULTI/EXEC transaction in the
      server memory is bad.
      
      The prefix is the best in this specific use case since it does not allow
      desynchronizations, and is pretty clear semantically. However Redis
      internals and client libraries are not prepared to handle this
      currently.
      
      So the implementation uses the CLIENT command, providing a new REPLY
      subcommand with three options:
      
          CLIENT REPLY OFF disables the replies, and does not reply itself.
          CLIENT REPLY ON re-enables the replies, replying +OK.
          CLIENT REPLY SKIP only discards the reply of the next command, and
                            like OFF does not reply anything itself.
      
      The reason to add the SKIP command is that it allows to have an easy
      way to send conceptually "single" commands that don't need a reply
      as the sum of two pipelined commands:
      
          CLIENT REPLY SKIP
          SET key value
      
      Note that CLIENT REPLY ON replies with +OK so it should be used when
      sending multiple commands that don't need a reply. However since it
      replies with +OK the client can check that the connection is still
      active and all the previous commands were received.
      
      This is currently just into Redis "unstable" so the proposal can be
      modified or abandoned based on users inputs.

      Server: restartServer() API. · 73427462
      antirez authored
      This new function is able to restart the server "in place". The current
      Redis process executes the same executable it was executed with, using
      the same arguments and configuration file.

      Replication: add REPLCONF CAPA EOF support. · 3e6d4d59
      antirez authored
      Add the concept of slaves capabilities to Redis, the slave now presents
      to the Redis master with a set of capabilities in the form:
      
          REPLCONF capa SOMECAPA capa OTHERCAPA ...
      
      This has the effect of setting slave->slave_capa with the corresponding
      SLAVE_CAPA macros that the master can test later to understand if it
      the slave will understand certain formats and protocols of the
      replication process. This makes it much simpler to introduce new
      replication capabilities in the future in a way that don't break old
      slaves or masters.
      
      This patch was designed and implemented together with Oran Agra
      (@oranagra).

      Make sure we re-emit SELECT after each new slave full sync setup. · 15de6b10
      antirez authored
      In previous commits we moved the FULLRESYNC to the moment we start the
      BGSAVE, so that the offset we provide is the right one. However this
      also means that we need to re-emit the SELECT statement every time a new
      slave starts to accumulate the changes.
      
      To obtian this effect in a more clean way, the function that sends the
      FULLRESYNC reply was overloaded with a more important role of also doing
      this and chanigng the slave state. So it was renamed to
      replicationSetupSlaveForFullResync() to better reflect what it does now.

      PSYNC initial offset fix. · 292fec05
      antirez authored
      This commit attempts to fix a bug involving PSYNC and diskless
      replication (currently experimental) found by Yuval Inbar from Redis Labs
      and that was later found to have even more far reaching effects (the bug also
      exists when diskstore is off).
      
      The gist of the bug is that, a Redis master replies with +FULLRESYNC to
      a PSYNC attempt that fails and requires a full resynchronization.
      However, the baseline offset sent along with FULLRESYNC was always the
      current master replication offset. This is not ok, because there are
      many reasosn that may delay the RDB file creation. And... guess what,
      the master offset we communicate must be the one of the time the RDB
      was created. So for example:
      
      1) When the BGSAVE for replication is delayed since there is one
         already but is not good for replication.
      2) When the BGSAVE is not needed as we attach one currently ongoing.
      3) When because of diskless replication the BGSAVE is delayed.
      
      In all the above cases the PSYNC reply is wrong and the slave may
      reconnect later claiming to need a wrong offset: this may cause
      data curruption later.
