Currently, methods of simple_schema assume that table's schema doesn't
change. Accessors like get_value() assume that rows were generated
using simple_schema::_s. Because if that, the column_definition& for
the "v" column is cached in the instance. That column_definiion&
cannot be used to access objects created with a different schema
version. To allow using simple_schema after schema changes,
column_definition& caching is now tagged with the table schema version
of origin. Methods which access schema-dependent objects, like
get_value(), are now accepting schema& corresponding to the objects.
Also, it's now possible to tell simple_schema to use a different
schema version in its generator methods.
Cache update may defer in the middle of moving of partition entry
from a flushed memtable to the cache. If the schema was changed since
the entry was written, it upgrades the schema of the partition_entry
first but doesn't update the schema_ptr in memtable_entry. The entry
is removed from the memtable afterward. If a memtable reader
encounters such an entry, it will try to upgrade it assuming it's
still at the old schema.
That is undefined behavior in general, which may include:
- read failures due to bad_alloc, if fixed-size cells are interpreted
as variable-sized cells, and we misinterpret a value for a huge
size
- wrong read results
- node crash
This doesn't result in a permanent corruption, restarting the node
should help.
It's the more likely to happen the more rows there are in a
partition. It's unlikely to happen with single-row partitions.
Introduced in 70c7277.
Fixes#5128.
If the whole partition entry is evicted while being updated from the
memtable, a subsequent read may populate the partition using the old
version of data if it attempts to do it before cache update advances
past that partition. Partial eviction is not affected because
populating reads will notice that there is a newer snapshot
corresponding to the updater.
This can happen only in OOM situations where the whole cache gets evicted.
Affects only tables with multi-row partitions, which are the only ones
that can experience the update of partition entry being preempted.
Introduced in 70c7277.
Fixes#5134.
invalidate_unwrapped() calls cache_entry::evict(), which cannot be
called concurrently with cache update. invalidate() serializes it
properly by calling do_update(), but evict() doesn't. The purpose of
evict() is to stress eviction in tests, which can happen concurrently
with cache update. Switch it to use memory reclaimer, so that it's
both correct and more realistic.
evict() is used only in tests.
When a read enters a partition entry in the cache, it first upgrades
it to the current schema of the cache. The same happens when an entry
is updated after a memtable flush. Upgrading the entry is currently
performed by squashing all versions and replacing them with a single
upgraded version. That has a side effect of detaching all snapshots
from the partition entry. Partition entry update on memtable flush is
writing into a snapshot. If that snapshot is detached by a schema
upgrade, the entry will be missing writes from the memtable which fall
into continuous ranges in that entry which have not yet been updated.
This can happen only if the update of the entry is preempted and the
schema was altered during that, and a read hit that partition before
the update went past it.
Affects only tables with multi-row partitions, which are the only ones
that can experience the update of partition entry being preempted.
The problem is fixed by locking updated entries and not upgrading
schema of locked entries. cache_entry::read() is prepared for this,
and will upgrade on-the-fly to the cache's schema.
Fixes#5135
The sstable reader which populates the partition entry in the cache is
using the schema of the partition entry snapshot, which will be the
schema of the cache at the time the partition was entered. If there
was a schema change after the cache reader entered the partition but
before it created the sstable reader, the cache populating reader will
interpret sstable fragments using the wrong schema version. That is
more likely if partitions have many rows, and the front of the
partition is populated. With single-row partitions that's unlikely to
happen.
That is undefined behavior in general, which may include:
- read failures due to bad_alloc, if fixed-size cells are
interpreted as variable-sized cells, and we misinterpret
a value for a huge size
- wrong read results
- node crash
This doesn't result in a permanent corruption, restarting the node
should help.
Fixes#5127.
Use move_buffer_content_to() which is faster than fill_buffer_from()
because it doesn't involve popping and pushing the fragments across
buffers. We save on size estimation costs.
The operation after gate.enter() in tracker::start() can fail and throw,
we should call gate.leave() in such case to avoid unbalanced enter and
leave calls. tracker::done() has similar issue too.
Fix it by removing the gate enter and leave logic in tracker start and
done. A helper tracker::run() is introduced to take care of the gate and
repair status.
In addition, the error log is improved. It now logs exceptions on all
shards in the summary. e.g.,
[shard 0] repair - repair id 1 failed: std::runtime_error
({shard 0: std::runtime_error (error0), shard 1: std::runtime_error (error1)})
Fixes#5074
Currently, the population stat is not increased for entries that are
evicted immediately on insert, however the code that does the eviction
still decreases the population stat, leading to an imbalance and in some
cases the underflow of the population stat. To fix, unconditionally
increase the population stat upon inserting an entry, regardless of
whether it is immediately evicted or not.

When executing a query on the replica we do several things in order to
narrow down the sstable set we read from.
For tables which use LeveledCompactionStrategy, we store sstables in
an interval set and we select only sstables whose partition ranges
overlap with the queried range. Other compaction strategies don't
organize the sstables and will select all sstables at this stage. The
reasoning behind this is that for non-LCS compaction strategies the
sstables' ranges will typically overlap and using interval sets in
this case would not be effective and would result in quadratic (in
sstable count) memory consumption.
The assumption for overlap does not hold if the sstables come from
repair or streaming, which generates non-overlapping sstables.
At a later stage, for single-partition queries, we use the sstables'
bloom filter (kept in memory) to drop sstables which surely don't
contain given partition. Then we proceed to sstable indexes to narrow
down the data file range.
Tables which don't use LCS will do unnecessary I/O to read index pages
for single-partition reads if the partition is outside of the
sstable's range and the bloom filter is ineffective (Refs #5112).
This patch fixes the problem by consulting sstable's partition range
in addition to the bloom filter, so that the non-overlapping sstables
will be filtered out with certainty and not depend on bloom filter's
efficiency.
It's also faster to drop sstables based on the keys than the bloom
filter.

- manual using cqlsh

The method sstable::estimated_keys_for_range() was severely
under-estimating the number of partitions in an sstable for a given
token range.
The first reason is that it underestimated the number of sstable index
pages covered by the range, by one. In extreme, if the requested range
falls into a single index page, we will assume 0 pages, and report 1
partition. The reason is that we were using
get_sample_indexes_for_range(), which returns entries with the keys
falling into the range, not entries for pages which may contain the
keys.
A single page can have a lot of partitions though. By default, there
is a 1:20000 ratio between summary entry size and the data file size
covered by it. If partitions are small, that can be many hundreds of
partitions.
Another reason is that we underestimate the number of partitions in an
index page. We multiply the number of pages by:
(downsampling::BASE_SAMPLING_LEVEL * _components->summary.header.min_index_interval)
/ _components->summary.header.sampling_level
Using defaults, that means multiplying by 128. In the cassandra-stress
workload a single partition takes about 300 bytes in the data file and
summary entry is 22 bytes. That means a single page covers 22 * 20'000
= 440'000 bytes of the data file, which contains about 1'466
partitions. So we underestimate by an order of magnitude.
Underestimating the number of partitions will result in too small
bloom filters being generated for the sstables which are the output of
repair or streaming. This will make the bloom filters ineffective
which results in reads selecting more sstables than necessary.
The fix is to base the estimation on the number of index pages which
may contain keys for the range, and multiply that by the average key
count per index page.

When the toppartitions operation gathers results, it copies partition
keys with their schema_ptr:s. When these schema_ptr:s are copies
or destroyed, they can cause leaks or premature frees of the schema
in its original shard since reference count operations in are not atomic.
Fix that by converting the schema_ptr to a global_schema_ptr during
transportation.
Fixes#5104 (direct bug)
Fixes#5018 (schema prematurely freed, toppartitions previously executed on that node)
Fixes#4973 (corrupted memory pool of the same size class as schema, toppartitions previously executed on that node)
Tests: new test added that fails with the existing code in debug mode,
manual toppartitions test
Copying schema_ptrs across shards results in memory corruption since
lw_shared_ptr does not use atomic operations for reference counts.
Prevent that by converting schema_ptr:s to global_schema_ptr:s before
shipping them across shards in the map operation, and converting them
back to local schema_ptr:s in the reduce operation.
This allows keys from different stages in the schema's like to compare equal.
This is safe since the partition key cannot change, unlike the rest of the schema.
More importantly, it will allow us to compare keys made local after a pass through
global_schema_ptr, which does not guarantee that the schema_ptr conversion will be
the same even when starting with the same global_schema_ptr.
Throwing move constructors are a a pain; so we should try to make
them noexcept. Currently, global_schema_ptr's move constructor
throws an exception if used illegaly (moving from a different shard);
this patch changes it to an assert, on the grounds that this error
is impossible to recover from.
The direct motivation for the patch is the desire to store objects
containing a global_schema_ptr in a chunked_vector, to move lists
of partition keys across shards for the topppartitions functionality.
chunked_vector currently requires noexcept move constructors for its
value_type.
When a user type changes we were not recreating other uses types that
use it. This patch series fixes that and makes it clear which code is
responsible for it.
In the system.types table a user type refers to another by name. When
a user type is modified, only its entry in the table is changed.
At runtime a user type has direct pointer to the types it uses. To
handle the discrepancy we need to recreate any dependent types when a
entry in system.types changes.
Fixes#5049
If each client_state has its own copy of the variable two clients may
generate timestamps that clash and needlessly create contention. Making
the variable shared between all client_state on the same shard will make
sure this will not happen to two clients on the same shard. It may still
happen for two client on two different shards or two different nodes.
Paxos needs a unique timestamp that is greater than some other
timestamp, so that the next round had more chances to succeed.
Add a function that returns such a timestamp.
client_state holds a state to generate monotonically increasing unique
timestamp. Queries with a SERIAL consistency level need it to generate
a paxos round.
In the system.types table a user type refers to another by name. When
a user type is modified, only its entry in the table is changed.

The way schema changes propagate is by editing the system tables and
comparing the before and after state.
When a user type A uses another user type B and we modify B, the
representation of A in the system table doesn't change, so this code
was not producing any changes on the diff that the receiving side
uses.
Deleting it makes it clear that it is the receiver's responsibility to
handle dependent user types.
